PORTO RICANS OBJECT.
Do Not Think Return Will Be a
Benefit.

Some of the Porto Ricans from Wholh
the dime subscriptions are being SOU
cited with a view of sending back SIX
of the Porto Rican girls to their native
shores, are not altogether enraptured
with the ideas. Some of the Porto
Ricans have established boot black
stands and are making many dimes Il
day. They appreciate the country thor-
oughly and claim that it would be little
good for their countrymen to return.
Even if sick and destitute, they stand
saw the speakers, a better chance from
the charity of Americans and Hawaii
ans than if they went back to Ponce.
The plan for deportation, as 1t seems
TO be generally understood by those
Porto Ricans who have picked up a
little English and have been discussing
the matter, is that the six girls are 10

ENORMOUS EXPORTS TO EUROPE

The old world is largely dependent
upon this country for its labor saving
machinery, and although enormous
quantities of machinery of this char
acter are being shipped every day, the
trade is as yet in it's infancy.
Nearly every steamer leaving our
American ports at this season has for
it's cargo a large quantity of harvest
ing and other agricultural machinery,
the major portion of which is manu-
featured in Chicago.
The steamer "Asyria" which sailed
for Havre on February 18th has a
freight tonnage capacity of 10, 34s tons
which was occupied by Deering Har-
vesting machines
The tonnage capacity of other steam
ers which have recently sailed for
Europe, and whose cargoes were divid-
ed about equally between harvesting
machinery and other American labor
saving machines were the "Othello'
with capacity of s,31S tons. the
"Selecto' $3.50 tons, the "Seriphas'
Ills tons and the "Sicilia" with a
capacity of a. $50 tons. Truly America
is cutting a wide swath across the
pond at the present time and the
end is not yet.

JAPAN CURRENT CHANGED.
Captain Wallace Authority for State
ment on 0ceanography.
Skagway Alaskan Special:


Captain Wallace, of the Cottage
City, is acknowledged to be in the
very front rank of Pacific Coast navi-
gators. He is not only a practical
seaman but deep student of ocean
ography. The Captain confirms a
statement that has just been made by
a number of ship masters who are
fresh from the Arctic north and have
cruised about the Aleutian archipelago.
Careful scientific experiments, all
based upon mathematical calculation,
show conclusively that the trend Of
the Japan current has been radically
changed Since the fall of 1899 this
warm ocean current has been nearing
and sweeping with constantly increas-
ing strength towards the shore-line
of the coast. 1t will be remembered
that in 1899 the whole northern coun
try was shaken by a terrific earth
quake. Giant rocks were broken from
the declfvities of mountains, sleeping
VOlCduOoS III buo AICllC ICSiOu ul5
gorged Aow of lava and clouds of
ashes dimmed the northern seas.
Since that time the climate has been
changed. This mighty current was
turned from the west by stupendous
submarine mountain wall, that was
upheaved from the earth's bowels dur
ing the earthquake. This new chain
of submarine mountains has thrown
the Japan current against the shore.
At first it was cooled by the sea-level
glaciers, past which it swept.
This accounts for the gradual change
in the temperature. But it has re-
sumed it's warmth, and with it's con-
stantly increasing temperature, the
climate has become milder.
Last summer was rainy like it is on
the sound. And this is mild, rainy
winter all along the coast from Valdez
down.
Frank Thayer and T. R. Coughlan
met Captain Wallace on their trip to
Alaska, and found him to be fine old
Scotchman

BANK Is SOLVENT
Public Examiner So Finds Am
boy Institution.
Testimony Taken at Two Days Hear
ing---SIight Run Started but
Headed Off.

The examination into the affairs
of the Amboy state bank, which was
conducted Tuesday and Wednesday by
Public Examiner Johnson, was yester-
day adjourned until April 22nd.
The examination was held in the
presence of the stockholders and the
books were gone over and the officers
of the bank and others were examined.
W. E. Young appeared for the bank
officers, and A. r. Pau Sr. for one or
more of the dissatisfied stockholders
Harry Paddock took the evidence.
The stockholders who brought
about the examination claim misman-
agement on the part of the officers
Mr.. johnson found the bank to be
perfectly solvent and on sound basis.
1t was started three years ago, has
acapital stock of $40, 600, and has on
hand in cash an amount equal to sixty
per cent of the deposits. 1t has 81, =
500 surplus, and last year paid divi-
dend to the stockholders of nine per
cent. F. N. Ware is president and
s. G. Berner is cashier-both careful
and capable business men. The great
est proportion of the stock Is held by
residents of Amboy and the surround
ing country.
While the bank has sixty per cent
of the deposits on hand in cash, the
law only requires twenty per cent to
be so retained. ~. .
There was a good deal said during
the hearing as to money loaned to
Fred Hilliker, formerly of Amboy, but
it was shown that his indebtedness
to the bank has been reduced to So,
300 and that this will probably be
made good within thirty days
In reference to the charge that GER
tain of the bank officers did not act as
they should have, these officers
put on testimony to show that they
had acted only as is customary among
bank officials. To help refute the
charge, W. g. Hoerr, president of the
National Citizens bank of this city,
was secured and he detailed few
facts in regard to the banking bust
ness. ..
The fact that an investigation was
being made became known among
the farmers, and yesterday run or
the bank was started and $40, OO(
was withdrawn. Some of this wai
subsequently returned. One mar
drew out 81, 500 in the forenoon and
put it back in the afternoon. The banl
had prepared itself for such move
and had plenty of cash on hand tx
meet all demands.
Officers of the bank and stockholder
who are favorable to them lay tn
trouble at the door of outside parties
whether rightfully or wrongfully
They say that these parties some tim
ago tried to buy out the bank, bu
were unsuccessful.
While it is admitted that the ban
will be somewhat injured by the pres
emit trouble, it will continue in bust
mess.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.

The following weekly market letter
is furnished by Edwards, Wood
g Co., grain commission merchants, 8
Chamber of Commerce, Minneapolis,
$40 Board of Trade, Duluth.
Feb. 26.-The wheat market was
very dull all of last week until Fri
day when it declined 70 cents closing
at the low point. Monday there was
a decline of 1870. yesterday a fur
ther decline of 3sc, followed by re-
covery to 1880 and today declined to
7219c and a recovery to 1890 at the
close. Mondays decline resulted
from general bearish sentiment based
on the supposed excellent condition
of the winter wheat crop and the COM
petition Of Canadian wheat in Euro
pean markets and the lower tendency
of prices for coarse grains. Worlds
shipments for last week we're more
than half American and most of
that half was Canadian. Manitoba
has large amounts of wheat for which
it has no storage or mill capacity and
is therefore forced to sell. Last
week the authorities agreed that
winter wheat was we'll covered with
snow and in good condition. Yester-
day advices were that the snow had
almost entirely disappeared and today
there are numerous crop damage re-
ports from Kansas and Oklahoma.
The recent decline has resulted in
large sales for export and good sales
at Chicago for shipment east, and
this together with the crop damage re-
ports accounts for the good reaction of
all the grains from the low point.
The visible supply decreased 1900, 600
bushels and Bradstreet's worlds visi-
BILE decreased 600. 600 bushels, and oats
increased .n1SO, 900 bushels. Farmer g
deliveries of corn and oats last week
were larger than for any other week
since Christmas. The freer move
ment is caused by moderate weather,
smaller requirements, and desire to
avoid taxation. We think the course
of the market will now be governed
largely by weather and crop con-
ditions.

cipher explaining speculation and our
: daily market letter mailed free.

NEW HEATING PLANT.
Bill Authorizing One For the Normal
Schools Passes Legislature.

A telegram from Senator Benedict
says that the bill which he introduced
authorizing the use of the So, 600,
appropriated last winter to the
normal school for heating
plant and library, and which was held
up by the board of control because it
was not sufficient for both purposes,
and that body claimed it could not be
used for either one alone, as there was
no authority for it. to be used for the
purpose of putting in heating plant,
has passed both houses of the legisla-
ture, and will become law. This
will be good news to the school, and
will allow the making of an improve
ment that has long been needed.
