"Poor Whites" of Porto Rico.
Nor was servitude confined to Afri
cans, Spain long used Porto Rico as
a penal colony, and when public works
no longer required them, the convicts
were turned loose to shift for them
selves. Most of them took to the moun
tains, where the "poor white" popula
tion Is numerous to this day. Yt the
later generations are no more crim
inal than the Australians; If there is
much petty thieving, It is natural in
a hungry, overcrowded community.

Where We Get Pineapples.
Singapore was formerly the' chief
source of the world's supply of pine
apples, but our fresh fruits now come
mainly from the West Indies espe
cially from Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Bahamas and our supply of canned
fruit from Hawaii The first attempt
to grow the pineapple in the United
States was made at St. Augustine in
1850. Florida, however, can never
hope to compete with her more favored
rivals In this industry.

CITY IS BUNKOED SAYS JURY
Seattle Traction Lines Worth 5 In
stead of 15 Millions.
Seattle, Wash. The terms of the
contract by which the city of Seattle
purchased the municipal street railway
system from the Puget Sound Trac
tion, Light & Power company for $15,
000,000 in municipality bonds, cannot
be fulfilled and the city is entitled to
equitable relief through the courts,
the Bpecial grand Jury investigating
the purchase declared in its report
made public Monday. The report as
serts the lines are worth approximate
ly $5,000,000.
Mayor Caldwell will ask the city
council to take action in line with the
recommendation of the special grand
Jury investigating the purchase of the
municipal street railway system, that
the city seek relief in the courts from
the terms of its contract with the
Puget Sound Traction, Light & Power
company, he announced.
The report says the grand Jury
found no evidence of corruption, or
that any city official profited by the
deal which was completed in March,
1919. It did find, however, accord
ing to the report, that the "negotia
tions leading up to the deal were
characterized by slack business meth
ods on the part of the mayor and .the
city council." No indictments were
returned.
The grand Jury began investigation
of the purchase of the lines last No
vember, following publication of
charges by Mayor Caldwell that the
city had been "bunkoed" out of sever
al million dollars. The city council
voted an appropriation of $10,000 to
be used by the mayor in conducting an
Investigation, results of which were
submitted to the grand Jury.
After asserting that the value is
approximately $5,000,000, the report
declared that if the city of Seattle
completes the purchase according to
the contract, the people will pay a
total of $23,752,550 in principal and
Interest and that by the time the pay
ments are completed, it will . be
practically necessary to reproduce the
system.
RAILROAD LAB0RITES ASK
PRESIDENT TO DECIDE
Chicago. President Wilson was ask
ed by representatives of seven labor
unions to Investigate the statement
of Brigadier-General W. W. Atterbury
of the Pennsylvania lines that the
roads must have wage readjustments
or be in danger of bankruptcy, and If
the statement were found true, to
place the matter before congress and
ask that body to enact remedial leg
islation immediately.
The union leaders, however, in a
message to the president, declared
they did not believe the roads to be
in the financial condition outlined by
General Atterbury. They charged that
he had, by delivering what they term-
an ultimatum" to the board, "violated
all decent proprieties, disregarded the
transportation act and flouted existing
agencies, such as the interstate com
merce commission and even congress
itself."
General Atterbury's obvious policy.
the telegram said, "was to disrupt
labor unions, turn public opinion
against the employes and place wages
on a pre-war basis so that railway
profits may be enhanced when pros
perity returned." The shipper would
have to pay increased rates and the
laborer would be exploited, if General
Atterbury had his way, the union men
declared.
The telegram asked the president
to take Immediate steps to have all
the evidence presented to the Inter
state commerce commission and said
the union representatives were call
ing his attention to the matter only
because "no stone should be left un
turned to prevent such a catastrophe
as outlined by General Atterbury,
Morgan Home Accepted.
Washington, D. C Acceptance of

ment to the diplomatic bill by Rep

ly 4500 votes In the 157 precincts yet
