Another Joke was a newspaper nnnounco-

WASHINGTON, April 6. Charles II.
Allen, governor of Porto Itlco, who arrived
In Washington this morning, had an hour's
conference with President McKlnlcy today.
Great Interest was manifested In Governor
Allen's visit on account of tho rumors that
have been rife over since ho sailed from
San Juan that It was his Intention to re
linquish his post In tho Island.
After the conference, however, Governor
Allen announced that he would not resign
nnd would return to his duties about tho
llrst week In May, after settling up some
private affairs in Boston. It Is pretty well
understood that Governor Allen came to
Washington in tho hope that tho president
would relieve him of his duties In Porto
IUco and that he asked tho president to da
so, but tho president prevailed upon mm
to contlnuo nt tho head of the ndmlnlstra-
tlon of the affairs of the Island. Governor
n . . . .
Ident to a very high degree nnd ho felt that
It was his duty to accede to the wlfdics of
tho chief executive.
Speaking about the affairs of the island,
Governor Allen said that the situation had
Improved vory materially In every way
since ho becamo governor over a year ago.
"Tho civil government established In
Porto Hlco," Governor Allen said, "Is work
lng smoothly. Tho various departments
havo been organized and our administration
Ih seemingly giving general satisfaction
In a material way thero has been much
progress. Much or tuo island wnicn was
not under cultivation under tho old regime
Is being taken up nnd made profitable
Great Fruit Prospect.
"Thero Is n great field In tho Island for
products that can ba Shipped to the United
States, especially oranges and other fruits,
Tho advantages possessed by the Porto
mean fruit growers, on account of the dls-
crimination in their favor ns far as tariff
duties aro concerned, which will be In
creased when all duties are removed July
l, cannot but result in making it a great
fruit growing country. Recently persons
who are Interested In tho growing of lilies
and other flowers, as well as onions and
.potatoes in Bermuda, have been looking
over the island with a view to transferring
to Porto Itlco tho agricultural Industries
that have made Bermuda famous. A faint
idea of what this would mean to the Island
can bo gathered from tho fact that last
year this country Imported from Bermuda
400,000 bushels of onions alone
'In the old established industries in
Porto Itlco there has been a great Improve
ment in nil except coffee growing and pro
duction. Unfortunately, this is languish
lng at tho present time. Tho production
of sugar has been Increased from 40,009
tonB last year to probably 100,000 tons (esti
mated) for this year. Tho sugar industry
Is beginning to flourish owing to tho tariff
discrimination in Its fnvor. Upon tho crop
estimated for this year tho Porto Rtcans
will save $3,500,"000 in tariff duties. Tho
orango Industry is being Increased by the
Investments of Americans. Tho fruit Is de
licious and there Is plenty of land to bo
had for the cultivation of oranges.
I believe Senator Foroker bulldcd moro
wisely than he knew In tho organic law
governing tho island and I feci, after a
Bomewhat lntlmato acquaintance with the
situatlon. thnt that law Itself, lnternreted
In the spirit In which It was mnde, will
be found to work qulto satisfactorily in
Porto Rico for sorao tlmo to come."
Tux I.nvr Not no find.
When asked about tho alleged unpopu
larity of tho Hollander tax law. Governor
Allen explained that there was naturally
much misunderstanding about tho Inaugu
ration of tho, purely American system of
taxation, based upon property valuations,
to tnko the place of tho old Spanish sys
tem that bad been In vogue for over 300
years. He said that the total valuation of
poses. This would raise about $1,000,000.
TUo othcr ,,'00000l) nece,,sary t0 mak0 up

taxes on rum, cigars, cigarettes, etc. Gov
ernor Allen explained that the complaint
made against the feature of the Hollander
law which only allows six months for tbo
redemption of property sold for taxes was
ono that could bo remedied by the next
legislature, which meets In December, If tho
time was found to bo too short. Governor
Allen said that tho taxation under tho
Hollander law was lower than In nny of
tho states of this country.
iNlnnilem HrlmvliiK Well
"Tho administration of tho Island," con
tinued the governor, "has in nil respects
desired the co-operation of all good cltl
zens. It Is required of thoio who aspire to
Insular oillco that they should bo loyal to
tho American government and that fitness
for ofllce with such loyalty should bo tho
fundamental endorsement, rather than that
of somo political lender. Some disturbances
havo occurred, but never with such serious
results as has often occurred In the United
states. Bar room brawlB. hooting nnd howl-
. . . . t
lng' crowds on the Btreets, n few atoms
thrown, some rattling sticks along .the
palings, havo been sufficient to occasion
sensational cables to the north, which
though promptly denied, have been di
ctated to thu discredit of tho Is'.aud,
"I understand that several thousand peo
plo have been employed by agents to leave
Porto Rico for Hawaii, principally, some
few for Cuba and a few aro now being en
gaged to work in Ecuador. But compared
with 1,000,000 people, the percentage eral
grating Is so small as not to be worth con
sidering, If thoce peoplo enn benefit their
positions by emigrating they should bo per
muted to emigrate, care being taken, of
course, tn seo that they nro not led nway
by mlsreprerentatlon or against their will,"
Later In the day Governor Allen callrd
at tho Navy department nnd received
warm greeting from Secretary Long, his
old chief and friend. He auo called upon
Secretary Hay and bpcut hulf an hour.

CHICAGO, April 6. Major General S.

en route from Manila to Washington, to
day. "Tho most formidable problem confront
ing tho United Stntes government in tho

Young nt the Great Northern hotel today.
"Tho llrst named is distinctly military In
Its character and numbers among Its hiem
bers tho real leaders ot tho Insurrection.
Tho second Is civil and embraces every nn
tlve In tho islands who is In sympathy with
the rebel cuuse. Tho second Becurcs funds,

forms its members of all movements ot
the United States troops. Tho Influence of
these two organizations is widespread and
our means of approaching tho prlmo movers
are limited.
The utmost secrecy governs the work ot
nil these societies. They aro crafty, skill
ful and, we havo found to our cost, trench-
crous. Their hatred or our people is as ou
ter as It Is groundless, nnd, In my opinion,
tho quickest and best, if not the only way,
to wean them from their prejudices Is by
means ot American colonization of the
islands."
