Government Feavs an Uprising of Unemployed Negroes. Kinr-stnn. .inmnlcu. Oct. . The Ma roon case comes up for trial before the St. Mary district court tomorrow, me main issue being whether the civil law statute of limitations can override Im perial treaty rights, under which tho Maroons claim a disputed piece of ground. Some npprehenslon prevails, shared by the government nnd public, owing to the Immense number of unemployed and riotous negroes who arc under secret direction from unknown leaders. Those leaders, It Is reported, arc urg ing the Maroons to rebellion, with the view of creating public disturbances, by which pillage and spoils may be ob tained. A detachment of about 200 police was sent today to tho scene of tho possible disturbance, nnd two com panies of white troops are following as a reserve. The governor of Jamaica, Sir Augus tus Hemming, sailed for New York this morning, leaving the government of the Island In the hands of the general com manding the forces. IN THE PLAY HOUSES. An Amusing Farce. A great laugh compeller is the tnrce. "A Cheerful Idiot," vblch was presented nt the Acadcm of Music hist night. The cheerful Idiot, who Is the ventral Us ui c of the drama, Is a sort of a clownish Pcck'fc Uad Hoy. who succeeds in gettlng mled up In nil kinds or complication and scrapes. This difficult character was essayed very successfully Ly Edward Blondell. During the three acts of the furco thorn aro specialties without number, and whu is hotter, all are bright and cntcrtnlnl'ig. The performance will bo repeated this nnd tomorrow afternoons and evening at tho Academy. The Dawn of Freedom. At Wllkes-Harro lf.st night "The Dawn of Freedom" was piodueed before an en thusiastic and highly pleased audience. Heroic Americans, Buffeting Cubans, treacherous Spaniards, tailors, soldiers, volunteers, marines. United States wnr shlps, Spanish cruisers nnd a United Stoles consul, all llijurc In the dramatic events that form the story. There are two love incidents and comedy inter spersed with tho thrilling adventutes and dramatic cllmaxrs. The eye and ear are both appealed to, beautiful scenery and costumes aro furnished for the former and bright lines and patriotic speeches for the lattjr. The drama will be seen al the Lyceum tonight and tomorrow night and tomorrow afternoon. Spear Comedy Company. Of the Spear Comedy company whlen will be seen at the Academy of Music all next week the Klmira Advertiser sas: "A packed house greeted tho splendid production of 'Faust' by the Spear Com edy company last night. A more ilulstictl elaborate and beautiful pdoructlou of Goethe's masterpiece It would be hard to Imagine. Mr. Dennett has given Ihe stiiKu a dramatization that shows at once tho scholar, the nctor and the master of Htngn production. The weird atmosphere of tho play Is never lost for a moment. The scenic effects are the tlnest ever seen hero in any production of 'Faust.' and the Ice trleal surprises were startling, beautiful nnd complete.

The slutus of tho war In the sugar trade was momentarily lost sight of owing to consistent support of tho stock. A further reduction wus n signal for tho raid, but after affecting a brenk of a point tho stock rallied strongly nnd eventually ruled a point above yesterday's close. Sub sequent weakness robbed It of the gain nnd communicated heaviness else where. Pool buying was evident dur ing the course of the day and this fuctor, in uddltlon to outside purchases, embracing a large sprinkling of tho In nctlvo stocks, occasionally sustained prices, although the general run of stocks favored a lower level. Dullness became quite pronounced during the af ternoon and but few changes of note occurred, except where special consid erations operated.

For the benefit of any American w ho muy desire to look Into the banana business, with an eye to coming to Raracoa to Invest money, I secured tho following facts: Cood land, suitable In every way for banana culture, can be rented at a nominal price. It can bo Dought outright all the way from 50 cents to $50 un acre, depending on lo cation. It costs to clear th woods and plant banana roots $1,000 a cabal lira (about thirty-three acres). This cost Includes all the expenses of clear ing, planting, cultivating and harvest ing. Within fourteen months from tho time the clearing begins the fruit Is ready for tho market. On a naballiro 10,000 banana trees enn be planted, but, as not every tree will bear, it Is safe to figure on 8,000 bunches for the llrst yield. First-class bunches will bring en the plantation from 33 to 45 cents each; second-class bunches from 30 to 33 cents. In Baracoa It Is tho prac tice to cut down all shoots but one, thus forcing the single shoot to bear one of the large bunches of long, thick bananas which find ready sale In the United States. These figures were given me by Pe nor Simon, who has thousands of acres In his plantations. Some idea of the Importance of tho banana Industry In the Baracoa district can be gathered from the fact that there are threo cable ways used for bringing the fruit down to the const from the hills. One of these cable ways Is over four mllex long and It cost $200,000 to build. It Iwib a capacity of 13,000 bunches of bananas a day, bringing them down In lots of twelve bunches at a time. Hut the American who has designs on the banana business must bear one thing In mind. The roads, like all Cu ban roads, are bad. Most of them are meri' trails, over which wheels never have passed, and yet the wholu coun try Is full of the best road-making ma teria! I ever saw. It would cost but little to build up n system of macadam roads In this district, for labor Is cheap and the material Is at hand. FORTUNES IN OSIER GROWING. Men Who Plant Willows Will Reap n Large Financial Profit. Osier-growing Is an Industry that has a great future before It In th United States. Expeita of the department of agriculture have been investigating the subject recently, and thuy declare that fortunes await enterprising persons who will thus utilize the vast tracts of land available, for this purpose. Planted with tho species of willows useful for basket-making, tens of thourandrj of acres that are worthless for anything else could bo made to pay an enormous Interest on tho Investment not less. In fart, than 20 or 30 per cent. It Is ab solutely necessary, however, thiit the proper varieties should be obtained, eha tho speculation will not be a success, Tho average dealer U not to bo trusted on such a point.

In 1S90 there were In the United States, according to the cen sus, 403 wlllow-wnre establishments, with a capital of $2,700,000, employing 3,732 persons, paying annually tho sum of $1,269,000 for wages and producing $3,633,600 worth of manufactured ware. The value of raw material consumed was $1,398,500 an increase of 61 per cent, over that used In 1S90. The United States consumes a greater quantity of willow-ware than any other country In the world. Our Imports of fine ware from one district In Germany amount to about $230,000 per annum. Willow baskets, hampers, chairs, etc., have become a staple industrial at tide, and the demand for them Is enormous; in fact, It Is far greater than the sup ply. Sawed-wood and split-wood bas kets are used largely for shipping fruits, but these can never take the place of the strong, light, and durable willow baskets for many other pur poses. Up to the present time the wlllow-wnre Industry In America has re ceived comparatively llttlo nttentlon, labor being high and tho culture of osiers not well understood. Meanwhile Immense ntres along our rlverp, on parts of the seacoast, and on some up lands and prairies not suitable for other agricultural employment, Invito capital and energy to Invest In tho growing of willows for baskot-malclntt. Tho soil for basket willows should be n deep, sandy loam, well drained and thoroughly prepared. The situation ought to bo low, level, and naturally moist, Tho beBt place to grow osiers Is ajong tho banks of rivers and brooks that pass through n level country, and on the small Islands which frequently occur In tho midst of streams. Com pletely draining the site for a basket willow plantation Is the first step to ward Its formation and the foundation of Its success. There are hundreds of thousands of acres of marsh land, lo cated principally In the upper lake re gions, which might be drained at a small outlay and planted with basltot willows, producing an Immenso profit.
