The shipping of fresh pineapples to
the mainland has practically stopped
during the past few weeks, owing to
unduly heavy losses which have been
sustained by the shippers recently. It
was stated by prominent pineapple
man this morning that the coast deal
ers have refused to renew their con-
tracts, because of the difficulty in dis
posing of the large quantities of dam
aged fruit which they had been called
upon to handle While the business Is
expected to revive before long. II Is
felt that it has had a serious setback:
The trouble is largely due, 1t is
claimed, to the fact that none OF the
steamships on which the pineapples
have been shipped, are fitted for car
lying fresh fruit The have no sys-
tenn for ventilating the holds where
the perishable products are carried,
and when stormy weather compels the
close battening of matches. plneaplaes
heat and deteriorate very rapidly. The
past two months have been unusually
stormy, and in a number of cases the
voyages have been several days longer
than scheduled. which accounts almost
entirely for the havoc wrought in the
Ipineapples on board. Bananas are also
reported to have been badly damaged
by the same cause.
The fresh pineapple business from

And without another glance at the
shouting and applauding audience Har-
ny Lauder made his final exit.

Marie, which left the Mexico port OF
Manzanillo on April %.
The majority Of the refugees are
from Guadalajara and tributary terri

and Manzanillo. The feeling against
Americans was 80 intense that the ma
jority OF the refugees from GuadalaJara

protection Of the British consulate off,

Anti-American demonstrations were
held at frequent intervals. tho Mexican
press was given over to the most
alarming reports, insults were hurled
at Americans in the streets and threats
OF wholesale assassination were made.
Antonio del Gadillo, Governor Of the
state of Colima, ended a speech incit-
ing Mexicans to take up arms with the
exclamation, Death TO the Americans!
While refugees from GuadalaJara
were at the wharf, waiting to get their
baggage off, vessel thought - be an
American warship was sighted, and a
Mexican wearing a Red Cross badge
rushed into the American Consulate,
tore from the walls two large Ameri
can flags and carried them outside
where Mexicans tore them into strips,
spat upon them, stamped on them and
then set fire 10 them. AS they were
burning a Mexican flag was waved over
them.
The wharf was cleared preparatory

the Americans there were marched to

to get him out of the country was ap-
parently without qualification. He
would let Ryan go whatever he might
have done, and sent orders 70 the Fed

effect.
