TRADE INCREASES
NEARLY JENF0L
Remarkable Growth of Com
merce Between the United
States and Porto Rico
AIDED BY ANNEXATION

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.--The story
of the remarkable growth of trade be-
tween the United States and Porto Rico
is told in a statement issued today by
the Bureau OF Statistics of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor. 1t shows
that the commerce between this coun-
try and it's island possession has grown
from a little less than $4,000.000 in
1897, the year before annexation, to
over $40.000.000 at the close of the
present year.
For the ten months ending with Octo-
Der the business between the two coun-
tries amounted to $35,830,03S. OF this
amount the United States sent to Porto
Rico $16,509,946 worth of merchandise,
while, Porto Rico's trade with this coun-
try reached a total of $19.320.132.
That a very large proportion of the
trade of Porto Rico Is with the United
States is indicated by the fact that 81
per cent of the islands trade comes
here, and Of the total merchandise en-
tering the island 861a per cent is from
the United States.
OF the principal articles forming the
large and rapidly growing trade of
Porto Rico, the chief article of growth
Is sugar; then follows coffee and fruits
in the shipments of the island, and
-four. rye. meats. dairy products, cot
ton goods, manufactures of iron and
steel and miscellaneous manufactures
in the shipments OF the United States to
Porto Rico.

sions have been held in the two tempo
rary structures on the old site. The

REPORT INTERESTING

WASHINGTON, Dee. 23.-The annual
report of Miss Estelle Reel, superip~
tendent of the Indian schools, made
public today, indicates that manual
trailing is becoming feature of edu-
cation among the Indians, and with
entirely satisfactory results. The SUI
perintendent has visited practically all
of the Indian schools during the year,
and reports that more teachers are rec
ognizing the special characteristics of
the Indian, and consequently better
methods of teaching prevail.
The teaching of cooking and home
laundry work now occupies a perma-
nent place in the regular course. School
gardens have Increased in number and
extent The beneficial results of edu-
cational work among the Indians are
illustrated by the larger number of pu-
pills who have found employment in
various occupations requiring manual
skill, and the prediction is made in the
report that a greater number of In
dians will become self supporting each
year as the result of manual training

PRESIDENT CASTRO
GROWING WEAK

TRINIDAD, Dec. 2s.-Advices re-
ceived from Venezuela are to the effect
that the health of President Castro,
who is at Macute is alarming. An
operation is deemed necessary, but the
weakened state of the patient does not
permit of it..
The sailing of General Jose Manuel
Hernandez is not confirmed, but rumors
of revolutionary movement in the
western part of Venezuela continue to
be circulated.
The press of the republic is abso-
lutely mute on the subject and it is
difficult to obtain details.
