THE CUE A R E Y 1 E W 15 CUBAN IRON ORE SHIPMENTS I'ulian ore sliipnicnts were- niailc in I'.iM) liy three cuiiipanies, namely, the Jurayua Iron Company, the Spanish-.\merican Iron Company and the Ponnpo .Manganese Com- liany.

Racing in Cuba is by no means a new venture. It has been repeatedly tried, but always with the same ending. The rich men who stand sponsors for the sport have steadfastly refused to ship that far and the poor horsemen have not the means.— Scrantoniaii, Scran ton. Pa.
