Spain's Amazing
 Industrial Progress

Madrid, May 3.-The last ten years in Spain show an amazing degree of commercial and industrial progress. The record Of this accomplishment in country that decade ago was look ed upon as a dying nation, reads like the comparative statistics Of a boom town in the American West, and there is awake in Spain to-day a spirit of hope and enterprise that will, 1t Is confidently believed, be the solution of all the country's material and po- 1itical problems.
 The doubled imports of cotton from the United States, the trip1eA output of iron ores, the prosperity of rail ways, and the rise in Spanish Gov ernment F'ours from 65 to 93, are in dications of this progress, but 1t is from agriculture that the largest ad- ditions to Spanish wealth are made.
 Ten years ago 12,500s0O0 acres were planted in cereals, to-day the total is 17,500,0OO acres. The wheat yield season 1t was close to 15o,0oO. .0oo bushels. The yearly consumption of wheat, including that used for sowing 1t about 175, 900, 900 bushels. The larger acreage this season will fur ther reduce the wheat and flour inn ports. The expectations are that an- other five years will turn Spain into a wheat exporting country.
 Fresh districts of barren land are brought under the plough each year. The new Ebro irrigation canal in Cat alonia and the canals under construc- ton in Arragon will turn into farms and gardens upward of 1,O00, 1000 acres of desert-1ike country, and in the central provinces there are 77s0o0,- 900 acres which irrigation and rail- road extension would transform into wheat fields.

PERMISSION FROM TWO
 COMMISSIONERS BEFORE BREMEN 60 OUTSIDE CITY

The fire board met in regular ses- sion last night and among the mat CTS which came before the meeting was whether the city of Bridgeport shall send her apparatus to surround ing towns when aid is asked for.
