As “the Americanos” stepped ashore they were im- mediately surrounded by the embryo citi- zens of Uncle Sam, who appeared truly glad to see their new allies. They made it a festal occasion, and in a haphazard sort of fashion formed a procession for the pur- bose of escorting their guests through the Narrow paved streets of San Juan. It seem- ed to be entirely forgotten by the populace that only a few days before they were sub- jects of the boy king of Spain, to whom they owed allegiance and paid taxes. As soon as they felt themselves to be free from the taskmasters who had lorded it over them for so long they felt in duty bound to give their deliverers a hearty and sincere welcome. This program was car- ried out to the letter, that the and ot there thi nd during the time members of the postal commission Americans remained in San Juan Was not even a suggestion of any- nf that savored of discourte : »me of the Spanish officers who wv countered in the narrow street walks were inclined to be haughty and a rogant worthies weresr pushed a: unceremoniously by their for- mer victims and their broad-shouldered guests, and the subsequent proceedings in- terested the Spanish officers no more. A Your A tour of the city of San Juan showed it to be one of the most interesting as well as Picturesque places i : imaginable. Surmount- irg an impregnable looking rocky site was the fortress of Morro, which commands not only the narrow entrance from the sea, but the land-inclosed bay as well, traces of th of this fortification but the damage be remedied and mortar. of the City. There were bombardment y Admiral Sampson, vas slight and can easily with a few hodsful of brick From the frowning battle. black-muzzted cannons still peered cut, but they were found to be of almost obsolete patterns and therefore almost harmless in this age of modern improve- ments in guns and marksmanship. Generally speaking, San Juan, is a pleas- ant place to look at, but it was distance indeed, that lent enchantment to the view. Its streets are clean and paved with a light cream-colored glazed brick, but these streets are narrow and as crooked as proverbial ram's horn. Externally the 3. which are of the two-story variety were found to be white and clean-appear. ing, but an examination of some of the I: teriors quickly dispelled even an idea that recent th cleanliness is considered next to gdilliness by a resident of Porto Rico. It seems tc be the desire of the people of Porto to get along in this world with as little ex- ertion as possible, and by this means they succeed in getting a maximum of dirt and filth around them In their living rooms and courtyards, which are such a feature of residences in the tropics. A peep into the open doorways of some of the -houses at San Juan and Ponce showed whole families of half a dozen or more persons living in one or two rooms, the walls of which were discolored and stained, while the ceilings were festooned with cobwebs which hav« been accumulating ever since the founda- tion of both these places. What is true of the houses applies with equai force to the sneral condition of the people of these two es. A dirtier and more disreputable looking assemblage of human beings w. probably never before presented for an in- Spection by strangers. Men,. women and childre ‘ are included in this category, and in many instances the little people of these two cities paraded the streets as naked as the day they were born, with distended stomachs far beyond the normal condition of children of their age, showing plainly the lack of nourishing food: These miserable lit- | Ue wretches were, indeed, objects of pity as well as commiseration. | But neither the children nor the adults of Porto Rico have time to consider the niceties of civilization. Their time ts occupied in a continual strug- gle for the necessities of life. avery one of them seen on the streets is on the lookout for alms from the new possessors of Porto Rico, and they are not at all backward about presenting their claims for consideration. No matter how irifling an act of courtesy may be perform- ed by them, almost the next breath will be Dadme centavo, Yo hambra?" “Give me a cent, I am hungry.” will say “Mucha hambra,” which means “very hungry,” and the appealing glances with which this request is made render it difficult to refrain from compli- ance. So far as outward appearances go the blacks of Porto Rico seem to be the better class, and if dress 1s any indication they are far in advance of the half-breeds and natives, who are usually the most woe- begone, destitute-looking creatures. Characteristics. There is nothing that savors of Ameri- canism among the people of Porto Rico and they will never be able to assimilate themselves with the Anglo-Saxons. All the average Porto Rican desires is enough for his or her immediate necessities, and the future can take care of itself. There is no evidence of thrift or enterprise in any of the cities on this island, and there will never be either as long as present condi- tions exist. A little Yankee push and persistency would make this one of the most valuable pessessions of Uncle Sam, but things will have to change very materially from what they now are if such u consummation {s to be brought about. Some of the most press- ing needs of Porto Rico are improvements in sanitary arrangements, clectric rall- Toads, ice plants, implements for tilling and otherwise taking advantage of the sof! given by Dame. Nature, first-class hotels, animals for heavy draught purposes to re- place siow-going oxen and the diminutiv: ponies of the island, and schools for the education of the youth of Porto Rico. These are indispensable adjuncts for the improvement and future prosperity of this beauty spot of creation lying twenty de- grees north of the equator. Many years ago a proposition was broached to run a steam railroad around the entire island alerg the coast, a distance of 400 miles At present, however, only 136 miles are completed, and these are of the narrow- gauge jerkwater variety,@uch as any back- weds settlement in the United States would be ashamed of. Matters are con- ducted in a most haphazard, irregular man- ner, too, on the few miles of this railroad now completed, and there is no assurance when a passenger starts from one place that he will ever reach hts destination. Should a cow make up its mind to get in front of the engine drawing the train, the engineer will most oblizingly stop until bossy concludes to vacate the track, no matter whether the cud chewer takes an hour or a day to come to such a determi- nation. The Road to Ponce. From San Juan to Ponce in an afr line it is forty-five miles, but the military road which traverses the island from the north to the south coast makes the distance nearly doulMe these figures. Ponce lies in- land about two miles from the sea, and the only means of transportation after leaving the trim boat at the custom house dock is by means of surreys drawn by the smallest type of horses known. While the equipages are as fine as any one could de- sire, the beasts drawing them are degener- ate brutes not as large as the little ponies of Chincoteague off Cape Hatteras. Their frames look like animated hatracks and their protruding backbones are as sharp as the razorback hog variety of Texas and other southern states. But these little creatures can go all day, being urged to renewed exertions by cruel, stinging lashes from whips wielded by the most merciless drivers in the world. Some of these horses cover the distance between Ponce and San Juan within half a day, but how they are able to accomplish such a task puzzles all who make any pretense to knowing what constitutes a good horse. When it is known that these horses are fed solely with grass and don’t know what grain tastes like the mystery becomes all the deeper. Surreys and ponies appear to be more in use at Ponce than at any other point on the island, and they take the place of trolley and steam cars. Good roads are features of this part of the island, and that is one point in favor of the diminutive transporters of human freight. ——_—_.__ MORE CRITICISM OF AMERICA. Ge . Collazo Says Spain Was More Considerate of Insurgents. A dispatch from Santiago de Cuba, yes- terday, says: Gen. Enrique Collazo, the most prominent colleague of Gen. Calixto Garcia, and the Cuban military officer who accompanied Lieut. Rowan on his return to the United States after delivering docu- ments from the War Department to Gen. Garcia, will publish in El Porvenir tomor- row over his signature a strong article, in which he contrasts the state of affairs in the island after the revolution of 1878 and the present situation. “Then,” says Gen. Collazo, “the Spaniards took a common-sense view of the matter and paid the insurgents enough money to allow them totreturn to their homes and commence work. They reduced, and in some cases remitted, taxes and treated the people lentently, affording them every facil- ity for the resumption of peaceful pursuits. “Now the Americans demand the dis- baidment, without pay of the Cuban army, still retain the heavy duty on cattle, thus preventing agriculturists from resuming the cultivation of their lands, and are generally acting without consideration toward men deserving the highest consideration for their services to the cause of liberty. It is true the Americans are distributing free ra- tions te the Cuban army, but the Cuban soldiers do not want charity, but only an opportunity to work for themselves. The article concluc s with a solemn warn- ing of the serious consequences likely to ensue unless the aggravated situation is re- lieved. enor Demetrio Castillo has accepted the position offered him of repr tative of Gen. Wood in the country districts and will enter upon “his duties immediately. His : has been fixed at $3,800. The ap- pointment is much appreciated by the Cu- bans. Senor Castillo was appointed gov. ernor of Santiago by Gen. Garcia, but was not recognized as holding the position by the American government. The friction with the Cubans is decreasing daily. Senor Castillo has been ordered to enroll Cuban rural mounted police force similar to that of South Africa. Acting upon complaints made by Cubans that the Spanish clergy were removing val- dle treasure legitimately beionging to the United States, Gen. Wood ordered an inves- tigation, which is now proceeding.

Readers of The Star will recall hat for more than a year past Mr. Thomas F. Ryan of New York has been trying to secure the man- agement of the road from Mr. R. Curzon Hoffman, who has been at the head of the corporation for a number of years past. The basis of Mr. Ryan's claim is that the majority of the owners of the stock of the road agreed some months ago to sell their holdings to him at $135 per share. but that they are prevented from doing so by reason of the existence of a pooling : -ecment which placed the stock in the hands of Mr. Hoffman and his friends absolutely for five years. Mr. Ryan has from time to time sought the intervention of the United States courts to compel Mr. Hoffman and the others to transfer the stock alleged to have been purchased by Mr. Ryan through the latter, but so far they have not made much progress in that direction. Recently, Judge Simonton of the United States court for the eastern district of Vir- ginia dismissed a suit entered by G. B. M. Harvey against the Seaboard and Roanoke and Raleigh and Gaston railroad compa- nies, which is the corporate name of the Seaboard Air Line, upon technical grounds. A day or two since, however, counsel for Mr. Harvey presented new authorities and additional facts, and, upon this representa- tion, Judge Simonton has ordered that there be a rehearing of the case. Intimately Associated. Although the suit was entered by Mr. Harvey, it is well understocd it has inti- mate connection with a pending suit of Mr. Ryan, who hopes to get a favorable de- cision on the latter and thereby secure con- trol of the Seaboard Air Linc, Mr. Harvey is said to be a business associate of Mr. Ryan, and is also said to D2 co-operating with ‘him in the fight against the present management of the Ssaboare and Roanoke for the purpose of having made effective 1 purchase of ebout $200,000 of Seaboard stock which was made by the Raleigh and Gaston company eighteen ment! ngo, and which was acjudged to be iliigal. The suit is also for an injunction to prohibit the votes of said stock being cast by the Ra- leigh and Gaston company and otuers, at tke stockholders’ meeting of the Seaboard company next week. The chief feature of the case, as sttown in the supplemental bill, is in the charge that the majority of the stock of the Raleigh and Gaston company is owned by the Seaboard company; that the two com- panies have the same boards of directors, and that the officers, agents and employes of the Raleigh and Gaston company are appointed and contrejled by the Seaboard company. It is alleged in the papers filed that Mr. Hoffman, as president, and his friends, by virtue of their official position as directors, caused the Raleigh and Gas- ton company to ue a part of the proceeds of an issue of bomas to purchase $200,000 of Seaboard stock. fhisistock was purchased, it is alleged, fromeparties who had signed a pooling agreement which contained a cov- enant not to selkthenstock for five years. The claim is mady that the owners of the stock had been ihduedd to sign the agree- ment upon the tepresentation that it was for the purpose of making a sale of stock of all signers at 3135 per share to Thomas F. Ryan, and nov dordhe purpose of having it tied up for five years, and who were, therefore, threatening: to bring suit them- selves to pool. They were pacified, it ed, by having their stock purchased by thedtaleigh and Gaston com- pany. «st Other Charges. The bill further'charges that Mr. Hoffman and his tefene ie Having this stock pur- chased by the Ryleigh,and Gaston company —the purchase: ampunting to about one- fourth of the ‘umount pooled—had three objeets in*view: First, to silence discon- tent among members of the nool; second, to place in their hands the power to veto the sale at any time within five years, and, third, to increase them at the regular stockholders’ mesting of the Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad Company, and to cast a large number of votes in favor of their own re-election, The contention on the part of the com- plainant is that, in view of the fact that the Seaboard and Roanoke company prac= tically owns the Raieigh and Gaston, any Seaboard stock which the Raleigh’ and Gaston company may purchase, assuming that it has the right to purchase under these circumstances, really belongs to the Seaboard company itse!f. It 1s further claimed that it is treasury stock and can- not be voted. + Ordered to Honoluln. Major Wiliam A. Purdy, additional pay- master, U.
