WINTHROP WORKING
FOR PORTO RICAAS
Has Arranged for Coffee Contracts With

Projects in Hand

Governor Winthrop of Porto Rico is
interesting himself actively in Wash
ington to promote the affairs of the
island
He is constant visitor at the White
House and Secretary Taft's Office. and
has been promised the assistance of the
Administration in improving the con
ditions on the island and benefting its
trade and prospects
One project which Governor Win
throp is actively promoting is the es-
tslblishment- of naval station at San
Juan. A strong effort will be made TO
get this through Governor Winthrop
thinks that with the opening of the
Panama canal San Juan will be a great
stopping point, and that European yes
sells. provided there is a good harbor
there, viii seek the port in large num-
bers.
A problem with which the governor is
wrestling is that of restoring the cof-
fee industry in Porto Rico 10 its
former prosperous condition. He has
secured promise of the War and Navy
Departemnts that in the awarding of
the contracts for the furnishing Of cof-
fee to the enlisted forces of the army
and navy the preference in the seIec-
ton viii be given to the Porto Rican
coffee, provided the bids are the same.
As these contracts amount TO con-

Object TO HOSPITAL
NEAR ELLIS ISLAND
Protests From Knickerbockers Reach
Department of Commerce and
Labor-RepIy Given.

The Empire City and the various
towns on the shores of New Yerk Bay
seem TO be having municipal fits over
the establishment of q hospital for con-
tagious diseases by the Department of
Commerce and Labor, adjacent to Ellis
Island. Commercial and other citizens
associations have gathered in indignant
sessions, protesting against the suppo-
sitious endangering OF communal health.
Belief was engendered that yellow fever,
cholera. ard similar deadly diseases
would be brought TO their very doors.
These protests reached Washington to-
day.
The Government, said an official Of
the Bureau of Immigration has bought
piece OF the bottom of New York Bay.
near the immigrant station. upon which
IL is to erect an island, and on the
island it is to build a hospital for con-
1agious diseases. but not the diseases
supposed.
IN this hospital we will keep the
Immigrants who are suffering from
complaints that are now treated at
the New York hospitals after the unfor-
turates land.
New York may rest assured that we
are not going to establish yellow
fever camp in the structure
Judging from this official statement il
would seem that the protests of the
Knickerbockers and Jerseyites will ayaii
them nothing.
