Protection for Coffee
ASKED BY
Porto Rican Leaders

San Juan. Porto Rico. Oct. 2s.-Ths
Porto Rican merchants now in the
United States as guests of the New
York Chamber of Commerce will pre.
sert petition to President Roosevelt
when In Washing an. in which, alter
stating that coffee production. which
for the past twenty years has been
tie principal source of their island $
Wet It'll, Is now experiencing very
dangerous crisis, they recite the
facts that have ledt to 1t.
These include. they say, the block.
AIDE and war of 1898. the hurricane OF
the following year. and last, anu most
grieyous OF all. the Dingley tar:ff. 1EIs
tariff was made applicable to mer.
chandise imported from foreign coun.
tries into Porto Rico, and It has
brought about retaliatory measures
against Porto Rican coffee-Spain and
France have increased their duties,
and Germany is preparing to do SO.
But the woes OF the Porto Ricans
does not end there. Free trade being
proclaimed between the island and
the United States. that country has
been rivaled by cargoes of cheap cot.
Zee from Brazil, Venezuela and other
countries. which have been reshipped
as native coffee to the detriment OF
the reputation OF the island. This
brought about the last blow at Porto
Rican coffee in the shape Of duty OF
$3.50 gold, every 100 Kilograms. Just

such a certificate. The matter was

should take, and these will be placed

PEEP BEHIND THE SCENES

On next Friday evening, Nov. goth
at the Opera House, during the per.
Torrance Of /" A Social Highwayman,'
Mr.. Neill will initiate his patrons into
the intricacies Of that mysterious
realm beyond the footlights, by show.
Ing in full view Of the audience how Q
scene is set and the amount OF time
and careful labor involved in arrang-
ing one Of the elaborate stage settings
used In the above play.
The rare perfection with which all Of
Mr.. Neill's plays are presented, the
thoroughness Of every minute detail.
has been the subject Of considerable
comment here as elsewhere. The waits
between acts have been commented
upon by some. That not an atom Of
time Is wasted In any Of these produce
ttons will be conclusively shown in the
demonstration to be given next Friday
evening. Mr.. Neill believes In sacri-
fcing a few moments Of time to secure
more perfect stage picture and the
splendid results Of his efforts have
been attested nightly during the en-.
gagement.
On Friday evening the curtain will
descend on the first act OF "A Social
Highwayman" as usual. Then It will
be raised disclosing the competent
stage force busily removing the scenery
and properties Of the first act and af-
forwards those Of the second. This
will also call attention to the careful
ness with which very small detail 10
arranged and the vast amount OF ma.
terial handled.

remarkable cOntretemps. The ship
was in the tropics. the air balmy and
the land gul's long lost. Miss San
Francisco arose to battle early. The
Alameda's layatory Is luxurious. One
turns spigot and the tub fills with
water from the ocean: II the tempera-
ture Of the briny Is too strenuous one
has but to move lever and Jet Of
steam permeates the water and warns
II to ones notion. The belle was iu
twenty inches OF lukewarm water,
luSuriating In dreams of Oriental
beauties. luaus and plumy palms, when
without the slightest warning the
steam pipe burst, letting food OF
sitting steam into the bathroom. Each
second the air grew denser with the
aftrighting vapoI.
There was not time to think of o
dressing gown, and with a vision VI
death urging her, she gained the door
and fled into the passageway. Up the
stairs she went In the altogether. I'M.
til she came to the opening into the
saloon where was her stateroom. Just
as she passed the plano sac stumbled.
Suddenly she felt herself lifted In
strong arms and set upon her feet.
