The masses are very childish and easily influenced. Naturally, they are mot at aU vicious. The common, people : nave great respect for the, United .States, 'but I am sorry to say that for many reasons tbJis is being lessened. Among 'the business men there is a deep feeling X -of' unrest and jdisBatisf action caused, it is said, by the uncer,taiiiity of the money and tariff legislation for the island. A& sded to this, however, is a feeling of prejudice and jealousy against Ameri . can, competition, which they see must, X in the nature of events, be met. The "present custome! laws are wholly in the - interest of the large' Spanish firms here, almost entirely shtrttin: out American .goods and. American competition; and . Jf Americami "are tri havA anv showine here ; these old musty Spanish , laws should be repealed at once and Ameri . can goods admitted free. The money question Is a knotty one, I should judge, though it is one that should receive prompt attention n American capital : end enterprise are to be used in the de velopment of this "wonderfully rich and fertile island. If the present money .. line saiverTJesosj sajmoxoe eiuDatitutea by American money it seems to me our- government ought to establish a rate of exchange between this and our money that will not' fluctuate if it is possible to clo'sov' I realize that this' is a . difficult j tjueetion to Settle and old not see howit can weu oe aone x v civil government here is in many re- -.JiriiWifa.
