THE PORTO RICAN FINANCES.
Treasurer HoIiRnder Draws a Most
Pleasing Picture.

Pleasing Picture.
New York, July 15.-Among the pas
sengers who arrived on board to-day's
steamer from San Juan, Porto Rico,
was Jacob II. Hollander, treasurer of
the island of Porto Rico. Mr. Holland
er gave out the following statement
concerning his work in Porto Rico:
''The present financial condition of
Porto Rico compares favorably. /
think, with that of any state or terri
tory in the Union. The island is free
from all funded or floating indebted
ness. the burden of taxation upon its
people IS less than upon the residents
of any part of the United States, and
the insular treasury begins a new fiscal
year with sources of revenue
that should supply all necessary
expenditures and leave a surplus large
enough to afford security against any
Unforeseen contingency. These are the
conditions which made II possible for
Gov. Allen to convene the insular legis-
lature in extra session on July 4, and
for that body to pass the joint resolu-
ton as to the adequacy Of its present
revenue system, which It is hoped will
soon result in free trade with the
United States. The annual expenditures
Of the island are about $4,000, 600 of
which about one-half is devoted to
schools and roads. Necessary revenues
are supplied by customs duties on
goods imported into Porto Rico from
countries other than the United States,
by excise taxes on alcohols, tobacco
and few minor articles and by di-
rect tax of one-half per cent upon real
and personal property. Any deficiency
in current receipts will be supplied
from out of the reserve funds OF the
insular treasury, of which one item
alone, customs collections on Porto
Rican exports into the United States
since May 1, 1900. aggregates 5000 900,
no part of which the insular govern
ment has found necessary to draw
upon up TO the present time.

CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH INTERESTS.
 Rev MT Carter gave very thought full sermon on "Faith," Heb. II: 6, 'Without faith it is impossible to please God.'' Faith is the main- spring of all human action, the parent of all discoveries and inventions, the basis of social, commercial and pOliti- cal order. He who acts from Suspi- cious, doubting and mistrustful mo- tives is an enemy and displeasing to his fellow men and to God. It may be mistaken, but an erroneous faith will lead to truth quicker than soul-dead- ening doubt. Therefore let us have faith in our fellowmen, for he who doeth good is of God.
 The contribution taken in the Con- gregational church for Hampton in- stitute amounted to $345. The amount for the American Missionary
