What sort of a game did we have in
Ocala on the 25th? Well, we had the
finest kind of trip and our stay in
Ocala was a perfect treat. The Ocala
boys are all gentlemen, and not only
did they make every provision for our
comfort and enjoyment, but devoted
themselves personally to our enter.
tainment. As to the games, we all
esteemed it pleasure to. be pitted
against such considerate opponents,
and we are eagerly anticipating their
coming here to play the return game.
We shall be satisfied If we can in re-
turn do unto them as they have done
unto us. The unanimous verdict is

Struck by Engine,

A horse attached to a dirt cart in charge
Of Edward Johnson was killed on the 9
street crossing of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad about $50 o'clock this morning.
The engine drawing the train from Freder-
lex inflicted the fatal injury. 1t appears that
the animal stumbled and fell, with it's head
resting on the track. The colored boy driv-
ing the cart, realizing the danger. caught
hold Of the bride and tugged away at the
animal, hoping he would be able to keep it's
head away from the track until the train
passed. Just about the time the train
reached the north end Of the crossing the
animal tried to get up, and the boy fear
ing the train might injure him. released his
hold on the bride. The animals head fell
directly in front Of the moving engine, and
the first blow Of the wheel caused instant
death

There was an entire absence of develop

day. Some surprise and amusement has
been caused by the comments of the Ger

show an entire lack OF knowledge of the

for the protection of American interests or

comments receive no serious attention from

Prominent Merchants of Porto Rico
the Worst Offenders.
DEALERS IN RUM AND TOBACCO
Companies Organizing to Raise
Fruit on the Island.
DEARTH OF SMALL COINS
Correspondence Of Associated Press.
SAN JUAN, Porto Rico,
Wednesday. August IA. 1901

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico.
Wednesday, August IA, 1901.
The internal revenue agents are kept
busy looking after dealers who seek to
evade paying tax on rum and tobacco.
The worst feature of the cases is that
the large dealers are the chief offenders.
Jose Vicente, a councilman of Mayaguez
Zone Of the largest cities Of the island, and
a republican leader, recently saved a $1.S0
tax and paid $500 fine. Julio Castro Of
Cabo Rojo Is the latest capture. He was
dealing in contraband rum. 1t Is safe to
say that the Illicit business done in to-
bacco. sugar and rum is enormous.
In several instances political influence
has been brought to bear, and friends Of
the accused even came to San Juan to
ask that the cases be dropped. Gradually,
however. the people are beginning to COM
prehend that the United States authorities
cannot be offended with impunity
Dearth of Small Change.
The last steamer which sailed from San
Juan to New York carried $S4, 600 away
from the island. OF this amount $40. 600
was in dollars. halves, quarters. dimes and
nickels. while $4,000 was in a draft.
There has been a great need for small
Change on the island for long time. Re-
Gently the island treasurer had $50 600 in
fractional currency to relieve the situation
and to provide money to transact business
Much OF the money was never taken out
or the original packages, but was shipped
back to New York to meet the payments
Tor money orders sent from here This last
shipment reused the authorities, as 1t was
seen that 1t would soon be impossible to
carry on business. Accordingly Acting
Governor Hunt cabled an account to Wash
tngton and arranged to have Postmaster
Lands of San Juan deposit the money with
the treasurer Of Porto Rico, and have the
amount charged against the islands fund
held In the United States treasury.
Fruit-GrOving Company Organized.
Fruit farms are the latest scheme to pro-
mote Porto Rican interests. A company
with a capitalization of 100000 and backed
by New York and San Juan firms, is nego-
tiating for land in different portions Of the
island. on which will be grown all kinds of
tropical fruits, winter vegetables and tropi-
cal nursery stock, both fruit and orna-
mental. The produce will be shipped to
New York. farm of 100 acres Is already
in operation at Rio Piedras, six miles from
San Juan.
The city councils of San Juan and Maya
Guez have declared tax Of 1925 on every
1000 kilOs of foreign coffee coming into the
island. kilO is 1-5 pounds This step
was taken to protect the coffee industry
here until Congress can meet and settle
upon tariff.
