BALTIMORE'S PRICE.

New York, Feb. 9.-In spite of the
attempts at secrecy on the part of the
National League magnates, and in
spite of their denials of almost every
statement relative to the circuit reduc-
ton plan, President Freedman, of the
New York club, has allowed the cat to
escape from the bag. He says that at
the conference at Cleveland held by the
circuit committee before which Messrs-
Abell Hanlon and Ebbetts appeared in
the interests of the Brooklyn Baltimore
syndicate. the price set upon the Balti-
more franchise. which included lease of
grounds and services of McGraw and
his men, was $4,000. According to the
New York president, this price stag
gered the circuit committee, and the
other magnates have now pronounced
it exorbitant, especially as they do not
see how Hanlon and Won der Horst can
deliver the goods. On top of this dis
closure comes the surprising statement
from Hanlon that the Baltimore fran
chise will not be sold, and that league
ball will be played in that city again
this year, despite all other declarations
to the contrary. Hanlon further states
that this decision is final.

This gave to the planter an average of

from the heavy planter to the negro pick

The present crop has not only been

PUERTO RICO CONDITIONS.

TGov. Gen. Davis in Golfers Weekly.l
The condition of Puerto Rico today is
perhaps best shown by statement of
the value of the exports of the island.
For the four years preceding 1897, the
average yearly value of exports was
SIS 609 600. OF this sum, about one-half,
IS. OPS. 900, was sold to Spain and Cuba,
was sent to the United States. The
exports of the island in 1893 were re-
duced one-half, and during the present
year it is not expected they will amount
to more than SO, 900 900. The total value
of exports and imports before the war
with Spain was more than $50, 000, 600,
and it should reach $50, coo 600 with good
industrial conditions. A large amount
of that trade will be with the United
States.
These figures demonstrate the neces-
sity of the United States taking action
under which a market can be provided
for Puerto Rican products. With free
trade between the United States and
Puerto Rico, economic conditions will
Immediately improve. The coffee of the
island is of an excellent quality and is
liked by Americans resident there, and
when it is known in the United States
there will be a demand for it. In fact
there ought to be no difficulty in dis
posing of the entire crop in New York
alone at prices equalling that obtained
for the best Java and Mocha The
sugar lands of the island have been
producing for several centuries, and
are much less productive than the vir-
gin soil; besides. the Puerto Rican sugar
planters have to compete with all sugar
producing countries, including the
bounty-fed sugar of Europe. The to-
bacco raised is good. and ought to find

AN INIMITABLE FEAT.
[From Collier.a week1v.l

The sailors of three men-o-war-
American, French and British-while in
the same harbor. were competing with
each other for the best display of sea-
manship. A Yankee went to the top
of the mainmast and stood there with
an arm extended. A frenchman then
went aloft and extended both arms.
An IriShman on board the British
ship thought if he could stand there
with a leg and an arm extended he
would be declared the most daring
sailor. Nimbly he mounted to the high
est point and attempted to do So but
at the last moment lost mis- balance and
fell through the rigging toward the
deck
The various ropes against which he
came in contact broke his fall, and
when near the deck he succeeded in
grasping a rope. To this he hung for a
couple Of seconds, and then dropped
lightly on the deck, landing safely on
his feet.
Folding his arms triumphantly, as if
it were all in the programme. he
glanced toward the rival ships and joy
Ously exclaimed:

SULTAN Will PAY.
Told Minister Stratus So the Last
Thing He Said.

New York, Feb. 9.-Oscar 5. Straus,
United States minister to Turkey, who
has just arrived in New York on leave
of absence, left COnstantinople late in
December, proceeding slowly through
Austria and Italy. During his stay
here the minister will make an eX-
haustive report and confer at length
with the state department regarding
several very intricate and important
questions regarding the relations of the
United States with Turkey
When Mr. Straus reached his post
year and a half ago, the United States
and the Sublime Porte had differences
of opinion on a number of weighty
questions. Mr. Straus has, it is said,
solved these problems satisfactorily.
The most important matter placed in
the hands of Minister Straus was the
adjustment of the indemnity claims
against Turkey incurred in 1895, when
a large amount of American missionary
property was destroyed by Turkish re-
ligiOus fanatics during the terrible dis
orders in Armenia.
THE sultan assured me the day be-
fore I left COnstantinOple," said Mr..
Straus in discussing the question to-
day, that the indemnity claims filed
by this government would be paid in
full, and we have also won the right
to reconstruct the Euphrates college
buildings at Harpoot, which We're RACED

had a, most bitter contest on this point.
We have also secured the right to es
tablish United States consulateS
throughout Turkey and the acceptance
of our consul at TrzerOum, in eastern
Turkey. This latter point especially
was one upon which the Turkish de-
partment of state refused to agree with
US for a long time. We have at last
secured what is called the open door
in Turkey which means that our citi-
zens now have the right to travel I'M

pire. This was interdicted from 1895
