STATUS OF ISLE OF PINES.
of Newspaper UNFOLDING
American Claims

The bureau of insular affairs Of the
War Department has received the first
COPY of the Isle of Pines Appeal, paper
published at Santa Fe, Isle of Pines, and
devoted to American interests in the is
land and to creating a sentiment that the
island belongs to the United States in
stead of Cuba. 1t is printed in English.
The claim Is made that four-fifths of
the tillable area of the island is owned by
citizens of the United States and that
from 700 to 500 American citizens own
land in the island. 1t is stated by the
publishers of the paper that the first is
sue was delayed by difficulties encounter
ed in the Office of the governor of Havana
An appeal was made to the American
minister and Mr., Squiers is publicly thank
ed for III. prompt action. The paper states
that its object is to appeal to the people of
the United States to insist that the Isle of
Pines is United States territory. Cuban news
10 called foreign. The opinion is expressed
that wnen the. committee of the United
States Senate visits the island the coming
fall that it will be convinced of the business
of their claims that the island is territory
of the United States.
The rublica ton of a paper of this kind in
a territory now under Cuban control and
over which there has oeen considerable con-
troversy is expected to give rise to dip
lomatic incident between the United States
and CUBA as 1T is believed that Cuba will
question the propriety of allowing paper
to openly advocate the alienation or inde-.
,pendence of territory controlled by that
country.
Neither of the treaties negotiated between
the United States and Cuba was favorably
considered by the Senate Each met with
opposition from senators whose constitu-
ents were interested in Cuba The claim
was made that when Cuba was under mill
tary control the opinion was officially ex-
pressed in very plain terms that the Isle OF
Pines was United States territory, and upon
that authority Americans invested In prop
erty which they would not have done if the
island had been adjudged part of Cuba.

THE COTTON INDUSTRY.
It's Growth in the United States
Traced

In a report which is soon to be issued by
the Departure of Agriculture the growth
of the cotton industry in the United States
Is traced from it's birth and some significant
figures are given 1t shows that within
twenty years past the cotton crop of the
country has increased nearly 8, 500 600 bales,
or about 30 per cent and that the increased
consumption of this staple by the entire
world during the same length of time has
been nearly 100000 bales, or about "a per
cent
The United States is the largest producer
and has grown to be also the largest con-
sumner of its product, the increase In this
having been 1863 bales, or 14S per cent
The increase in the south during that Pc
Rod has been remarkable, being COZ 900
bales, 500 per cent. while the increase in
the north has been 600 bales, or 80 per
cent -..'-
The significant feature of this report 10
that the United States now regulates the
price of cotton instead of leaving that to
Liverpool, as was formerly the case. To
the countries consuming the great staple
the growth of the consumption in the
United States is filled with meaning, for
the consumption Of every 10000 bales IN
this country means the shortening of time
in some foreign mill or perhaps Its closing
assuming OF &C urse, that the production OF
the United States has reached its limit.
Since 1880 there has been an increase in
the mills and spindles Of the country, and,
with the single exception OF the year 1876
"a an increase in the number OF bales con-
sumed.
