FIGHT OVER BANANAS
Merry Commercial War Is on ir
Costa RIGA.
Two Powerful American Corporations
at Loggerheads Over Lucrative
Trade in Fruit That Has
Become So Popular.

New Orleans.-A merry war has
been going on all summer in Costa
Rica-a Central American republic re.
markably free from political upheavals
between the United Fruit company.
and it's new competitor, the Atlantic
Fruit company, and the question at
issue has been bananas. The United
practically owns the available rail
road, has had monopoly of the re.
public's banana trade for years past
and is using every effort, even to
show Of armed force. to crush it's
younger rival. It is all supreme in
both the banana and coffee country
and it's lease Of the Costa Rican
Northern railroad insures it's DONNA
ton. That road was begun in 1871
by an American, Minor G. Keith, now
vice president of the United, and it
took 20 years to complete the. line
from Port Limon of the Atlantic to
San Jose, the capital, distance of
lob miles. It is said that at one period
Keith succeeded in working his en-
ployes eleven months without a single
pay day, the personality of the man
being strong enough to hold his labor
ers on faith. The money was eventu-
ally forthcoming and there are old
men In Port Limon today who declare
with pride that they are "'71 men,"
or "'72 men," as the case may be. re-
ferring to the date on which they
entered Mr. Keith's service in the con-
structfon of the railroad.
The United Fruit company owns
100000 acres of banana lands on the
Atlantic seaboard of Costa RIGA. On
these lands it produces about AZ per
cent Of all the bananas grown in the
republic. 1t buys all the bananas that
native growers can produce.
To tap the banana districts, from
the main line extend a number Of
branches and from these branches 9TH
er spurs and tramways, the whole
forming system of veins and arteries
for the transportation of bananas.
The main line is common carrier
OF both passengers and freight. Dis
elimination by the fruit company is
supposed to be impossible under the
termsof It's lease: However, when the
Atlantic Fruit company ver-ed in
this summer they discovered that
discrimination was an actual fact.

they were up against a lack OF

export of bananas averages $4,000, 900
annually, second only to that of ia
maica. Hitherto the company has
either grown or bought all the ba.

SEEK SUNKEN CITIES
English Expedition to Search for
Lost Continent.
Coast Of Yucatan the Scene of the Op-
erations, and Result May Be the
Discovery Of the Much
Discussed Atlantis.

London.-Yet another party of treas
hre hunters has sailed from England.
This time the search is for no paltry
hoard hidden by an old time pirate,
nor for a mere million or two Of glden
doubloons sunk in some Spanish gal
leon. This latest expedition is to go
diving for lost continent, Atlantis
perhaps, and salvage the countless
millions worth of gold and gems and
region as large as all Europe.
At the head of the expedition is
Bernard Meekham, an English explor-
er. His plans include the employment
Of huge floating dry dock, at least
dozen submarines for work on the
sea bottom and a hundred or more ex-
pert divers.
For nearly hundred years, says
Meekham, Yucatan fishermen, have
been bringing up from the waters
along the coast beautifully carved
stones, vases and small objects Of
gold and silver. These fishermen are
Maya Indians, who believes themselves
to be the descendants of once
mighty race. They hold these treas
ures of the deep as sacred and when
asked where they get them reply that
they have been given them by their
forefathers.
The reports Of these finds led Meek
ham to explore the ruined cities Of
ancient civilization scattered all along
the coast Of Yucatan. He thus became
convinced OF the existence of once
populous and rich country, swallowed
by the sea long ages ago, but still ac-
cessible
First Of all, engineers and investi-
gators were sent to Yucatan Their
reports showed that the country mark
ed for exploitation had apparently
sunk over an immense irregular land
surface stretching along the twentieth
parallel and breaking away from what
1s now the northern coast Of South
America and the eastern coast of Gen.
trail America. Further observations
showed that the temples, palaces and
houses which formed the cities of this
lost country were in far better condi-
ton than the land-buried cities of
Yucatan and Qua amala. Several
valuable objects Of gold and silver en-
crusted with jewels and recovered by
the crude methods necessarily en-
ployed by the searchers made it prac-
tically certain that the inhabitants of
the doomed land had not had time to
escape with their wealth before the
final catastrope.
These discoveries, together with the
traces found in the buried cities Of
Yucatan Of once powerful and en-
lightened race, indicate a wonderful
civilization that was in existence long
before the days Of Egypt or Babylon.
Even when the Spanish conquista-
,dores invaded Yucatan these mysteri-
Gus cities had been in ruins for CEN
turtles.
Submarines and divers will be en-
ployed to explore and loot the sunken
cities. These submarines of the curl.

MARBLE LIGHTS ARE BEST
German Inventors Patent New System
Of illumination That Is
Like Day.

Rerlin.-Patents have just been
taken out for using marble instead of
glass in lamps, which has the effect OF
making the illumination scarcely dis
tinguishable from daylight.
1nnumerable experiments have been
made with tinted and patterned types
OF glass with the idea of producing
this effect, but all have been failures.
AS last resource a sheet Of white
marble was planed down until it was
semi-transparent and then different in
tensities OF light were shown from be-
hind. The result was exactly what so
many hundreds Of experiments had
failed to produce.
Developing this discovery, the pat
entees have fitted lights to the cornice
of a room with such SUCCESS that it is
difficult to convince anyone that it is
artificially lighted.

This cap much thicker than that which
any other volcano has had to blow of, is the only
thing that has saved Guadalajara from destruc-
ton years ago. How long it will protect the city
is question can answer and prove
the answer. 1t may be years; to my mind 1t is
a matter of months; in any event, believe that
the only way to save the capital is to move it
bodily and move it while there is time to do So"
Aside from it's scientific interest and from the
unique situation Of city built on a volcano,
there remains the very practical problem which
confronts Guadalajara-the Job of moving city
OF 100000 souls to location. So far, Juana-
catlan is the most likely candidate for the honor
of being the capital of Jalisco, but there are a
number of other towns out of range of the buried
crater all of which will be considered before the
change is made.
All sorts of wild propositions to tap the crater
and draw off the menacing fires have been made
to the authorities of Guadalajara, but the men of
science say there is no way to curb the demon
OF fire Gagged by nature below and that the city
must be removed or it will be destroyed One
man proposed to turn the waters of the Santiago
river into huge tunnel, driven to the heart of

have to be about 500 feet in diameter and that
the heat would be great hundred feet from
the inner end Of the tunnel that human beings
could not endure it. - .-~
Thus it appears that unless a surgeon for
earthquakes appears, and that very shortly

owners and men who have bought or built some
of the fine blocks which mark the main streets
Of the Jalsco capital will be financial ruin
Some Of these men profess to doubt the word
of the scientists and to believe that the city is
safe. They will throw their influence and their
votes against moving the city unless they can be
convinced that there is very real personal dan
ger for themselves and their families.
