COAT OF ARMS
OF PORTO RICO
GONE BACK TO ONE USED UNDER
SPANISH RULE.
Action Causes Fear That the Ameri.
canization of Island Has Suf-
fered Check.

Washington, March 10.-The follow
ing comment is made by an official of
the State department regarding the
recent action of the legislature of
Porto Rico relative to the coat of
arms for the island
"A great deal of surprise is ex-
pressed in circles familiar with Porto
Rican affairs at the news that the
legislature of the island has rescinded
the new coat of arms and gone back
to the arms which the island had
when it was under Spanish oppression.
The announcement coming close upon
the arrival in Washington of the new
Porto Rican delegate in congress, who
has intimated that he favors home
rule for Porto Rtca causes some ap-
prehension that the Americanization
of the island is suffering a check.
The new coat of arms was adopted by
Governor Aliens administration six
years ago, and was designed by one
of the best heraldic designers in New
York, under the supervision Of Gail
lard Hunt of the state department, the
historian Of the Great Seal of the I'm
tied States and incorporated certain
feaures of the old Porto Rican arms
with the arms Of the United States.
The old coat of arms for which it ap-
pears the Americanized coat of arms
has been discarded, has as conspicu-
GUS features the Catholic emblem of
the lamb of st. John, the initials of
the old king and queen of Spain. and
Spanish crown-a remarkable COM
bination as emblems for United States
territory, where there is no state,
and allegiance is due to the stars and
stripes"

Intent to Wound.

lHtSHt 10 wOuHus
Mayor Smith bound M. Barr Dor
renee, local contractor, over to the
grand jury yesterday Afternoon after
the case of Dorrence VS.. BarleyounS
had been concluded. Dorrence waS
charged by John Barleyoung and his
son, Otto, of assault and shooting with
intent to wound.
The mayor in pronouncing sentence
also remarked that IL Dorrence did
not make aftidaYits against botb
plaintiffs for assault and battery hih
city. department would do so as he
considered the offenses which all
parties committed, deserving Of pun
ishment. Dorrences bonds amounted
to $500, 500 for the assault and $400
for the shooting. Dorrence said in
testifying that he had shot only to
scare his enemies. Attorney Rice,
acting for the Barleyoungs said that
his clients would fight the case be-
fore the mayor again should the affi-
davits be made out against them.
The trouble originated over some lum-
ber which Dorrence was using in con-
stfuctlng mouse Tor John Barleyoung
al the corner Of West Third and De-
walt streets. 1t was shown In the tes-
tlmony that the elder Barlsyoung,
who is crippled, started the fight by
hitting Dorrence in the back of the
head with a brick Dorrence came
back strong and when Otto Barle-
young, the son, interfered, was strong
enough to get the better of both an
tagonists. Otto then secured a heavy
iron weight, and upon seeing this
Dorrence ran away, Otto after him.
Dorrence shot, SO he said, to scare
his pursuer. The mayor said that
after the afiidavits against the Barle-
youngs were filed he would bind them
over to the action of the grand Jury
under $100 each.
