SOCIALISTS INSULT
 STARS AND STRIPES
MOB ATTACKS POLICE IN SAN JUAN AND CAUSES GREAT TROUBLE DURING ABSENCE OF GOVERNOR HUNT.

San Juan, P. R., October Ex-Governor Hunt returned here this afternoon from Ponce, where he attended a banquet in celebration of the extension of American railways in the island. He was every where received with demonstrations of confidence and esteem. During the gov ernor's absence the anti-American so- ciaIists and anarchists had clash with the police on the plaza of this city. Forty arrests were made and many of the prisoners were today convicted and sentenced to six months imprisonment, including the anarchist Condo, who was recently convicted of insulting the Amer ican flag
 The clash was due to the socialists, who attacked the police. The latter ordered the mob to disperse and on meeting with a refusal they used their clubs freely.
 Americans here are particularly in- censed at the carrying of black and red flags, and a ereped American flag by mob yesterday as an indictment to dis order. Condo delivered very offensive harangue in which he approved of the mob resorting to bloodshed if necessary.
 The Americans demand the punishment of all the dangerous socialists, and are overwhelming Governor Hunt with assur- ances of support in vigorous campaign to uphold law and order. They urge that an immediate death blow be given to anarchy here.
 The city today is quiet. More of the men arrested for attacking the police will be tried tomorrow

LoViisiliiiiiiiiaiii y iliiii iiiii Joseph G iiiji Bloch The Black Silk Sale
 Continues.

The Black Silk Sale, started yesterday morning, continues, and you may judge it's attractiveness from the fact that 1t is the largest and most important silk sale we have had this year. These silks are part of $3oo,ooo silk sale, held in New York the latter part of last month, at which silks were sold at auction at 25 and B I-3 per cent less than the usual wholesale prices. We were large buyers at these reduced prices, and the result is that you in turn may save quarter and third of regular retail prices.
 Understand, there is nothing the mat ter with these silks-on the contrary they are unusually high-class, and the only req son that they are less than regular prices is because there is glut in the silk mar ket-manufacturers anticipating the great popularity of silks this year overdid their manufacture.
 We repeat for the benefit of those who failed to read the detail of the news in Sundays Age-Herald:
