During his stay of four ars on the island he saw a number of things which did not speak well of the Spaniards, and in a conversation with a Star reporter he stated that on more than one occasion his own life w threat- ened. According to his statement he worked for the Providence Sugar Refining Company, which is located about ten miles by rail frem Havana. Though the corporation is composed of residents of the island, the boss- es are mostly Americans.

Although young in years, it has been learned that the boy is a confirmed tramp, having beat his way all over the country.
