Talks About That Island, And its Pro-

Washington. April Ex-Governor
Charles H Allen of Porto Rico has
arrived on Washington
Speaking about the affairs OF the
island, he said that the situation had
improved very materially in every way
since he became governor over a year
ago
I'm the old established industries in
Porto Rico there has been a great inn
provement in all except coffee growing
and production Unfortunately, this
is 1anguishing at the present time
The production of sugar has been in
creased from 40, 600 tons last year to
probably 100, 900 tons estimated for
this year The sugar industry is
bound to flourish owing to the tariff
discrimination in its favor. Upon the
crop estimated for this year the Porto
Ricans will save So. 500, 900 tariff duties
The Orange industry is being increased
by the investment Is of Americans The
fruit is delicious and there is plenty of
land to be had for the cultivation of
oranges

4 New War cloud Rising.

Washington, a pril al s Minister
LOOMS has been recalled from Nenezue-
Ia The report he will make to the state
department will have much to do with
the determination of the attitude of
the United States toward the South
American republic The administra-
ton is deeply irritated over Venez-
ue1a's conduct and has concluded that
the time has arrived for this govern
nent to assert itself and require re-
spect and proper treatment for Ameri-
c&n agents and American citizens.
Mr.. LOOMS withdrawal in itself is
an Indication of the disp1easure of the
United States and Venezuela will un-
doubtedly so receive it.
Until Secretary Hay has had an
opportunity to talk freely with Mr.
uela it cannot be known positively
whether not he will return to his
post Mr.. LOOMS has been the object
of bitter attack by some of the Venez-
uelan newspapers not solely beca use
of the asphalt controversy, but also
because he was charged with maxim e
false reports to his government touch
ing insurrectionary movement in Ven
ezue1a- 1t is only fair to state that
Venezuelan charge here asserts posi-
lively that these attacks were made by
irresponsible newspapers and the gov
eminent was not behind them and
deprecated them. If Mr.. LOOMS con-
firms this view, and he cares to return
to Caracas, he will be permitted to do
So Mr. LOOMS is expected to arrive
in New York on April 10.
