 of liberation being passed about thirty years prior to the emancipation of the slaves in the United States.
 Although the island has been subject to hurricanes and sometimes to slight volcanic disturbances. it was not thought that 1t was In any grave dan ger from visitation of this kind and when the British insurance companies some months ago offered to issue insur- ance policies covering fire caused by earthquake in place of those having no such clauses the Jamaican merchants deemed that the chances of disaster from this source were not sufficient to necessitate change. On June [. 1892. an earthquake occurred which swallow ed up the greater part of the old town of Port Royal, once a place of much wealth and importance but that was so long ago that most people had for gotten about it. There are two noun tains of volcanic origin in the island, but heretofore they have not been ac- tive since it's discovery. One of the two extinct volcanoes, called the Black mountain. near Port Antonio. Is report ed to be showing signs of activity.
 Near Jamaica in 17S2 occurred the celebrated naval battle in which the British Admiral George Brydges Rod ney defeated the French under De Grasse. The contest ragged f1ercely without intermission for nearly twelve hours. Rodney's victory saved Jamaica to England and ruined the naval power of France and Spain. AS reward for his services he was raised to the peer age as Baron Rodney and given a pen sion of f2O0O per annum. An imposing monument was erected in his honor at Spanish Town. which was formerly the capital of Jamaica

GLUT OF COCOANUTS

New York, Feb. 5.-Those who have watched the arrivals of cocoa- nuts into the several Atlantic coast markets have begun to wonder at what period the imports will dimin- ish and the situation assume nor nal shape In spite of low price, and the market forced out of line with profits and other healthy fea- lures that make healthy conditions, the receipts from all points stllI continue heavy. There are ar rivals daily on the regular traders rom Porto Rico and Trinidad, to sav nothing of large arrivals at out ports from San Bias and West ln- dian points. Prices at present are $2o per thousand, but the principal manufacturers of shredded cocoa- nuts are said to be in the market for lots and this feature seems to afford the only favorable prospect for the heayy-laden importers at the present.

unity made it nat ural for the American government to extend aid to the afflicted people of the island, and officers and vessels of the navy were dispatched there as soon as the character of the disaster became known. Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, who commands the Atlantic fleet, was with the vessels of his squadron off the Cuban coast when tbe earthquake occurred and with charac- teristic prOmptitude sent Rear Admiral Charles II. Davis. second in command. to render such help as could be given in preserving order and succoring the distressed at Kingston and in other parts of the island. The British press and public have expressed appreciation of the aid supplied so quickly by Americans, but the American vessels were withdrawn owing to the attitude of the resident English governor.
 It is less than 100 miles from the coast of Cuba to that of Jamaica. and the latter island is about 15O miles long by 50 in width. 1t is the largest of the British West Indian islands and was once Spanish possession h. deed it was discovered by Columbus himself during his second voyage, in 1494 and was ruled by governors who were descendants of the great discover CT until the line of his posterity became extinct It was Spanish colony un- til 1865 and in the latter year had population of but 5000. It was then that an English fleet captured the is land, and most of the Spanish residents took refuge in Cuba The settlers who arrived subsequently were mostly peasants from England Scotland and Ireland and Jewish traders from Mi norca. They brought from Africa large numbers of negroes, who were held in slavery, and about nne-ten of the 15O,O00 inhabitants of the island at the present time are colored.

By means of the special ap- paratus of the machine the electricity generated may be utilized either for raising the pole. or mast, in the air. for radio graphic transmission or for nov ing the machine The vehicle carries the pole, the alternator, the complete wireless apparatus and the operating staff. In ten minutes the station can be made ready for action to it's utmost distance, a little over ninety miles. For short distances it can act while in mo- tion at half speed This means that if in use in the field it can be run from point to point while messages are be- Ing exchanged between officers who desire to communicate.
 Marconi expects that the wireless au- tomobile will be first used in the serv ice of the Italian army but the predic ton is made that the device will be found useful on commercial lines where there is breakdown of traffic or in similar emergencies.
 Though Marconi has already accom- plished such wonderful achievements. he keeps right on studying and expert menting and making new inventions and improved apparatus just as if his name and fame were still to be made. His birth in Bologna, Italy. occurred thirty three years ago next April, and 1t was seventeen years ago that he be- gan experiments to test the theory that the electric current is capable of pass ing through any substance and if start ed In any given direction will follow an undertaking course without need for a wire or other conductor. 1t was Tn 1896 that he made his first success full experiment in telegraphing with out wires. and it was in the latter part of 1901 that he sent the first wireless message across the ocean.

YOUTHS THEIR
OWN SANTA
CLAUS
Break Into Freight Car and
Take SIedS Galore and
Hide EN- in Sewers.

Nine young and tender offenders.
ranging from Z to II years old, APP
peared with much fear and considerable
trembling before Judge Howell In the
Third Precinct Police Court this MORN
ing, to tell just how and why they were
concerned in the disappearance of
numerous sleds from a Pennsylvania
freight car In the Hamburg place yards
yesterday. Six of the sleds, Plain
clothesman Byrne, who rounded up h
bunch last night, had in court, but
there are supposed TO be many others
scattered around the neighborhood.
The seal of the car was broken and
the theft committed between 5 and 6
o'clock, and by l o'clock this morning
the parents of each offender had heen
interviewed, who gave their words that
their young hopefuls would be in court
this morning. All of them appeared,
most of them unaccompanied by parent
or relative. They were herded into the
surgeons room until such time as the
Judge could deal with them. KS they
were all under Is years old they could
merely be examined for the Juvenile
Court. The meeting was held In the
judges private room, h small culprits
grouped in a semi-circle in various
stages of detection around the table.
The Judge looked hard at the prisoner
directly In front of him. what did you
take these things sor?' he asked. Don't
YOU think that Santa Claus would bring
you one?"
The boy addressed looked rather blank
and guessed not, SO the real examination
began. They were strung out according TO
the way their names appeared on the list.
Tony flasher, of SO Houston street; Albert
Wagner, Of &C Houston street; Gus Mar

The judge looked them over.

well, you're all too young for me" he
remarked. Appear in the Juvenile

So the nine with their rubber boots
clumping and their umbrellas trailing
downheartedly, filed out. under the leader

noses resting on the rail, the sergeant had
to stand up to see whether he was Stating

for his hat and coat.

GROSSAND RICH
MAY BE ASKED
TO RESIGN
Meeting Of Protest Against
Alleged Insult to Social
ism Will Be Lively.

Unusual steps may be taken at a
meeting of the United Hebrew Assoc
Citations at Columbia Hall, Prince n
Court streets, tonight, which was
called for the purpose of demanding an
apology from Henry Gross, acting
president of the Beth Israel Hospital,
and from William S. Rich, who is
n of the board Of directors.
As told exclusively in the EVENING
STAR recently, Mr.. Gross and Mr..
Rich caused the removal of two mem
bers of the Socialist party from the
Kruger Auditorium at the time OF a
recent reception and ball for the hos
pital. The men were dressed in suits
made up of red, white and blue bunting,
with red signs on their backs advertis-
ing a coming affair of the Socialists.
When the action of the hospital offi-
Gals became known, several Socialist
leaders held a meeting. The action OF
the two directors was condemned.
A second meeting was held Friday
night and a committee consisting of
twenty-three members, including rep
rescntatives of equally as many or
Plantations was appointed to arrange
for tonight's meeting. Several thou

BEER GOES UP
AS BARLEY IS
SCARCE
Breweries Unable to Get
the Malt Needed in Manu-
factnre OfLiquid Supplies.

It is stated that the scarcity of bar
ley, due to a short crop last year, is
adding further troubles to an already
full lot on the shoulders of the brew
ers, and that in many instances the
shortage may result in a decrease OF
the output of beer. In New York hum
dreds of small saloons supported by
the breweries are threatened with ex-
tinction because the brewers cannot
afford to supply them with the beer
and ale necessary TO the trade they
handle.
Hops and barley are h principal in
gradients in the manufacture of malt
liquors. From IS to 70 cents a bushel
for barley in 1906, the price has jumped
10 S1.15 and $1.20, with further ad-
vances in prospect. The yield In 1905
was IT'S, 1885, s4 bushels, while for 1907
it was only 153, 317, 500 bushels.
None of the local brewers would dis
cuss the new phase of the beer ques-
ton, although none would deny that
such was the case. A member of the
firm of Ballantine & Co, which does
business in Newark and New York.
was quoted from the New York agency
as follows:
ut is not so much the question of
price of barley grain as it is the posi-
bility of buying 1t at any price. The
dry, sunless spring of 1906 was re-
sponsible for the shortage of the crop.
The monetary stringency also has to
do with the advance in price,
"Thre is a popular impression that,
in the manufacture of lager beer and
ale, corn, rice, wheat or some other
grain may be used in place of barley.
Ale and beer cannot be manufactured
without hops and malt. n malt can
not be made without barley. When
the harvest of barley is small the cost
of manufacturing is increased and the
profits diminish.
can item Of particular consequence to
all brewers is the price of oats and hay
because every brewery uses a great num-
Der of horses in its business, and they
must be fed generously to keep them in
condition. They consume almost twice as
much as the horses used in any other bust
ness, and the yearly bill of feed runs into
hundreds of thousands.
The oat yield of 1907 is more than 200.-
100000 bushels lower than the yield OF 1906,
and the shortage of supply has naturally
resulted in an advance In the price, which,
with the increased price Of labor, sends
the expense account higher than ever be-
fore known.
ut isn't, as I have said. a question Of
the price Of barley so much as 1t is where
to get it. We cannot import it, because
Europe is as badly off as we are. It is
only a few weeks ago that a representative
Of a big firm of brewers at Burton
on-Trent came TO New York to buy barley
and had TO go home without having bought
n bushel.
THE seriousness Of the shortage may
