NO SLEEP FOR THEM.
Outbreak of SOuffriere Caused an Exodus
Of the Population.

st. Thomas D. W. l., Sept. o.
Advices from the island of st. Vincent
report that slight eruption of the
Souffriere volcano occurred at noon.
September 8. The outbreak was ac-
accompanied by rumblings, and caused
an exodus of the population from
Georgetown and Chateau Bellair. On
the 4th, at 1880 in the morning, and
again at 10 o'clock last night, loud
noises were accompanied by electrical
discharges from La Souffriere, which
continued until l O'Clock in the morn
ing, when continuous roar began,
lasting until o'clock. This was fol.
lowed by murmuring sound, which
was heard until 6 O'Clock in the morn
ing. In short time the heavens we're
obscured by dust or smoke, and the
scene was something fearful. Nobody
slept at all during the night.
No dust, the advices say, has yet fal.
len at Kingstown or Georgetown, but
the atmosphere has hazy look. Dust
and pebbles fell at Barnelie at 4
o'clock on the afternoon of Septebmer 6.
Reports from Chateau Bellair are to
the effect that there has been heavy
fall of sand there, and that the arrow
root crop has been destroyed. No
deaths have been reported.

CUBAN INDUSTRY REVIVED.
Sugar Production on the Increase-Othel
interests Picking Up.

Washington, Sept. 10.-In it's final
settlement regarding the commerce Of
Cuba the bureau OF insular affairs of
the war department dwells particularly
on the sugar and tobacco industry of
the island, and presents some interest
ing facts regarding the production of
these two commodities. After showing
that sugar constituted one-half of the
exports Of the island for 1901, and pre-
dieting that it will continue to be the
leading product, the statement is made
that there are other interests which
are growing and which may become of
vital Importance to the future prosper
ity OF the island. By far the greatest
OF these is tobacco, OF which in its
different forms there was exported in
1901 $25, 900, 900 worth.
The report reviews the history OF
Cuban sugar growing, which first
assumed Importance in 1910, when the
crop amounted to 200, 900 tons. The
production steadily increased up to the
time Of the "Ten Years War;" when
it had reached 749, 900 tons. At the
close of the war the sugar crop had fal.
len to 5S3, 900 tons. During the last
10 years of Spanish occupancy, the
production varied greatly, exceeding
100000 tons in 1894 and 1895, and
after the beginning of the insurrectiOn
running as low as $4,000 tons in 1897.
The average for this decade was about
$50, 900 tons.
The expectation of sugar for the
calendar year 1899 was in round num-
bers 3l7 900 tons; in 1900 2S7 900 tons,
and in 1901 500, 900 tons, and during
the entire period of American occupa-
ton more than | 1,400, 900 tons.
1t is estimated by good authorities
that about 1000, 900 acres, or one-four-
teenth of the entire acreage of the
island, is devoted to the culture of
sugar cane. With the establish
ment Of new plants, equipped with the
latest appliances, the planters secured
from violence, and a removal of the
enormous burdens of the various taxes
formerly imposed by the government
of Spain, the acreage in cane may be
greatly increased and the cost of pro.
duction be reduced to a minimum.

NO LIQUOR LICENSE FOR SAMOA.
United States Decides to Continue RuIing
Of Navy Department.

United States Decides to Continue RuIing
Of Navy Department.
Washington, Sept. 1.-THE govern
ment has decided against the sale Of
liquor of any description in our Samoan
possessions. Shortly after the tri-
partite agreement between England,
Germany and the United States for the
government of the Samoan islands was
made, and the assumption of control
of the American portion of the islands
by the navy, under which the govern
ment was placed, license for the sale
of liquor at Tutuila was granted. Sub
sequently, upon the recommendation
of the naval governor, this license was
revoked, not, however, before the
United States vice consul at Apia, Mr..
Blackjack, had erected a hotel at
Tutuila, in which the sale of liquor
was carried on. When the license was
revoked, he lodged a protest with the
navy department, asserting that the
prohibition Of the sale of liquor would
work financial injury to him, and
representing that its sale would in no
wise corrupt the morale of the natives,
alleging that they were not addicted
to the use Of intoxicants. It was
also represented to the department
that the sale of intoxicants was per-
mitted in the English and German
portions of the island.
After duly considering the matter,
the navy department has decided
against Vice Consul Blackjack, and
the action Of the naval governor in
revoking the license has been sus-
tanned.

BERT PROBABLY DEFEATED.
Colombian Government Forces Unable to
Hold Aqua DuIce.

Panama, Colombia, Sept. 10.-The
government General Morales Berti,
who has been besieged by the insurgent
forces under General Herrera at Aqua
Dulce, has probably been defeated.
The governm mt gunboats returned
here last night from an exploring expe-
dition. Officers from the expedition
report having landed at Yegula, where
the insurgent garrison was defeated
after slight skirmish. A few insur-
gent prisoners were captured and 1t is
from these men that the news OF the
government defeat at Aqua Dulce has
been obtained!
General Berti has been besieged
since July 2S. The troops of his
command must have suffered terribly
from lack of supplies during the last
days of the seige, and it is said they
we're compelled to eat horse flesh. Up
to August 80 General Berti had not
surrendered, but since that date he is
believed to have either done SO or to
have forced his way out Of Aqua Dulce.
