BoletiÌn mercantil de Puerto Rico. (San Juan, P.R.) 18??-1918, 1902-05-07
liens O| Interest.

In a statement appearing in the
Denver Republican Of April oath,
which il is asserted Gen. Frederick
Funston dictated, the following language
is used.
.tWhat / said at the banquet of the
Colorado Sons of the American Revo-
luton last Saturday night made dis
tinction between two classes Of people;
the first, the demagogues, who did not
believe what they were saying; the
other, the class of people to which the
senior senator from Massachusetts bel
ongs, who did believe what they were
saying, were perfectly sincere, but were
suffering from overheated consciences;
that is, they were too sincere. Instead
of criticizing Senator Hoar intended
to pay him a compliment on being SO
sincere. / intended to keep off the sub
ject entirely, but Gen Hale's introduc-
ton was such that it compelled me to
say something on the Philippine war.
.sIn regard to my leave of absence
in order that might attend the Mid
dlesex Club banquet at Boston, made
the application one evening, but de
partn0QL I1dLIGIS CdI1C up uCAL llIolA
ing that made it i'm oossible for me te
leave here. Therefore l telegraphed
withdra wing my application made the
nigh. before, and before the War De
partment had time to act upon it. The
banquet of the Middlesex Club II
Boston was for April 26 l had re
ceived within one week ten kilograms
three in one day, urging me to attend
Senator Lodge was very anxious for me
to come. At first l said could no
bat afterward and until this important
business I referred to came up
thought possibly could make it.
"As you understand, I cannot discus
any order l have received or may re
ceive. So far have received the orde
only through the newspaper not offic
tally. / had decided to talk no furthe
of the Philippine question. My plan il
regard to the banquet of the officers o
the Colorado National Guard May
was to say nothing Yhatever about tht
merits of the var, but simply to speal
to the toast, ''The Eighth Army Corps.

sonal attacks that have appeared il

zero. All the travellers were frost
bitten Otherwise the were well and
in good spirits. They left the same
day for Sredne Molymsk, a town Of
East Siberia, goo miles further on,
which they hoped to reach about the
middle Of March. Then it was their
intention to push on 1900 miles, to East
Cape, the eastern point of Asia, on
Behring'S Strait. Probably, the next
news of the expedition will be its ar
rival in the United States, via Behring's
Strait.
De Windt mentions a report that
Baron Tolls expeditionary ship Zaria
was stranded on the Siberian Islands,
with only seven tons of coal on board.

expedition which is attempting to make
it's way overland from Paris to New
York dated Verkhoyansk, East Siberia,
on the upper Vana River. at the end Of
February Notwithstanding the fore
odings of the officials of Yakutsk, who
strongly urged Mr., de Windt not to
continue his journey, saying the con
ditions were worse this year than ever,
that the cold was more intense and that
epidemics and famine were ranging,
the expedition reached Verkhoyansk,
Goo miles north of Yakutsk, on Feb. "a.
Mr.. de Windt and his party had a
terrible experience while crossing the
Verkhoyansk mountains. The cold
was intense, sixty-three degrees below

Il y
no desire to harp upon them.
Charles E. James, formerly first lieut.
[enant Of the Thirty-sixth Regiment,
United States Volunteers, who IS now a
resident Of Los Angeles, Cal says that the
present agitation concerning the water
cure in the Philippines is due to reports
which magnify the cruelty OF the
operation.
II have taken the water cure and
know what it is, since it was admins
tered by the Filipinos", said Lieut.,
James. Il have seen it administered
TO several hundred natives and know
it's effects. In the first place let me
say that never knew Of the water
cure killing a victim. When the state
ment is made that the subject is
given water until his lungs are filled it
is an untruth. Any one of common
sense knows that man would strangle
to death in a very short space OF time
in such circu1nsta
MY own experience took place IN
June, 1000 Capt. Roberts, son of
Gen. Roberts; a private named Gallon
and myself were scouting just norih Of
Biacanabato Pass, out from San Miguel,
when force under Gen. Treson s1rro-
unded us. We were taken into the
mountains and forced to. march three
days without food. We made from
eighteen to twenty-five miles a day.
The starvation was carried out with
the intention Of forcing us to divu1ge

lever. AT the end of that time we were
introduced to the water cure, By natives
called tubig.
Regarding the effects of the cure,
II will say that the distention of the
stomach and the accompanying pain is
all there is to it. I strangled once,
but one quick cough ended it. The
cure is not pleasant. but would rather
take it than receive beating. My
companions suffered no after effect that

While many of the out-of-town contin-
gent have completed their purchases and
left the market, there are still enough
visiting buyers to sustain considerable
degree CT activity in domestic leaf cir
cles. The demand is not limited to
binders; all grades are being inquired
for and sold. 1t must be admitted, how
ever, that stock has not been unloaded
in as large blocks as we hoped. But
packers are confident that when buyers
have seen all that there is to be offered
and are convinced by close inspection
that the New England and other crops
are composed of really desirable tobac-
cos, there will be scramble for every
thing in sight.
Sumatra. There is no material change
in this market. Business continues quiet.
Havana.-The bulk of the business is
being done in Cuba just now. Private
advices are to the effect that the new
factory vegas are being taken as fast as
they are offered, and that in this class of
goods the buying season will be short
one. The Havana demand for Remedies
has also increased. Local trading is not
very active.-Leaf.

No sales have been reported during
the week Tie fine weather of the last
few days has made great improvement
in the growing crop. A number of grow
ers have commenced cutting, but the
majority of the crops throughout the
section are not as yet ripe enough for
cutting. The most experienced buyers
are warning the growers not to be too
hasty in harvesting but to wait until the
tobacco is in proper condition. The
temptation to get the crop in the shed
safe from damage by wind and hail is
great, but if cut while still unripe the
danger of improper curing is as large.
The buyers have been carefully watch
ing the new crop and e. G. Munroe was
at Corning and Elmira last week exam
lining the tobacco in the Big Flats sec
ton. Mr.. Munroe and |. G. Gary will
represent the American Tobacco Co. in
