DEWEY AT MANILA.

A private exclamation of those who deplore the situation with respect to the Philippines is. If Dewey had only sailed away after destroying the Span ish feet" The meaning conveyed is that had he done so this country would have escaped the Philippine problem entirely.
 IL is a wholly mistaken view to take Of the matter. The American com mander was not at 1iber.y to retire af- ter sinking the Spanish feet The en- cmy, in arms and in force, sill con- fronted him. Tho Spanish flag was still flying defiantly on shore. Was he to turn and head for the open sea again, without asserting Inc authority Of victory? He had been sent, it is true, specifically against the enemy's fleet, but his mission was not ended by any means when he had found it and sunk il. Whatever of Spain's power sill remained unreduced there called for his attention.
 He likewise owed a duty to humanity The achievement of the Americans had at once aroused the insurgents to re- newed hostilities. They sprang to arms in numbers and were well led. They became a menace immediately to Manila. Nothing but the most positive orders of the American commander re- strained them. They were most impa- tient to get at the Spaniards within the city, and had they been permitted to go in, a massacre would in all probability have resulted.
 What therefors would have been said of him had the American commander retired that Sunday morning from Ma nila bay, with the Spanish flag on shore still flying, but with the Spanish strength so reduced by the loss of the Spanish ships as to leave the city of Manila at the mercy of the insurgent forces eager for revenge on their long time prosecutors? And who would have been louder in rerrobation Of his act had the streets Of Manila run red with slaughter than these very people now so disturbed by American control Of the Philippines?
 Tho truth is that Dewey not only did the wise thing but the only safe thing, for his own reputation and for that Of

ROMANCE FROM EVERY DAY LIFE.

Margaret Wells stepped out of the art gallery where she had been for half a day, and gave 8 little girlish cry Of de- light At last the fog had come! Lon don had fulfilled it's promise and had yelled f,Self-palaccS, mart and river in the thick, murky, yellow cloud which made it stand unriYaIed among cities for it's charm of mystery.
 Tor weeks the skies had been as blue as those above her own land; but now the curtain had fallen and in the folds she was determined to lose herself. She thrilled with the spirit of adventure and ran down. Which way should she go? She stopped a momen1 to consider. An, there were lights dim and diffused like a saints halo. She would follow them. She went on cautiously.
 "O-oh.'' A horses hot breath was on her cheek and in 8 moment she was in 6 tangie Of wheels crying sharply to avoid being run over. If she had been conscious of her danger she would probably have been killed. As it was some unseen angel guided her. She reached the other side of the street treInbIIn and stretched her arms forth as a blind man gropc6 through unfa- miiiar places. She was frightened now, and the glow had vanished from her adventure. All at once her hands struck full against two other hands coming from the opposite direction They were big and firm and warm, and as she stopped quite still her own were not relinquished.
 "Oh," Margaret gave nervous lit tie laugh and tried to slip her fingers away from the close clasp which held them. 1T don't know you"

vindicated,

One of the biggest electrical contrac, s evar secured abroad by an American
 concern is under way at the works of the General Electric com mp3ny a. Sche- nectady The order calls for the com
 plote equipment of an underground railway through the heart of Paris. It was awarded to an American company
 after The keenest sort of compeS1ion with a dozen English, German and C;ler American bidders. The Orleans TramWay company, a big line which runs through the south of France, has started to build a tunnel, which will be modsled on the lines of the -,ew York Ger ral tunnel which runs up Fourth avenue, with double tracks and open ings at every blcck.
 This tunrcl will connect the station cf the Orleans Tramway line, which is in the suburbs, with the center of Paris. Incoming trans will be shunaed into i. he Lur1el and coupled to electric lOco- motives, which will haul them under ground into t.e heart of Paris. Out going trains will start from the same central point.
 Flight heavy locomotives have basn ordered said General Manager Eustis Friday. and five of them are under way. Ttsy are Of our latest and best JyPS, nuc0 Ike the great 61SCLIIC IOCO- motives in use in the Baltimore 6 Chic tunnel in Baltimore. We can't say yet how much lhe machines will cost, but they will be under $100, 900 eacn.
 'eTh,e, line will be three miles long, right through the busiest parts of Paris, and it is expected to add much to the traffic of the Orleans Tramway company. The trolley system will be used, as that is tGe best adapted to tun- nels."
 All the shops Of the General Electric company are working overtime. The first of the locomotives will be shipped to France within 9 few weeks. Paris are wajing with interest the completion of the sys-em-the first electric one to be installed in France. If it is successful more will be built without delay. The Orleans tramway officials, too, tlave agreed to build more tunnels and extend their syS-em if the first one proves successful. This the General Electric officials say is assured. New York World.

GOVERNOR STEPHENS POSITION EX-

Says The Chief Executive Is Not Candi-
date for United States Senate.
St. Louis Republic.
It is said that Governor Stephens
is not little annoyed over the re
ports that he is seeking to be elected
to the United States Senate and,
futher, that he would be glad to see
Colonel Sam B. Cook defeated for
the craftsmanship of the Democratic
State Central Committee A friend
of the Governor who returned yes
terday from Jefferson City said:
Governor Stephens is not can
didate for the United States Senate
to succeed Senator Cocktell. He 80
informed me in q conversation had
with him on the subject Thurs lay.
/ feel satisfied that he means exactly
what he says. Time and again he
has denied this rumor, but it bobs
up again Mt stated interval.
''Now in regard to Colonel Sam
Cook, the Governor informed me
that he felt satisfied Colonel Cook
would have no opposition for re cleo
ton to the head OF the committee;
that he managed the last campaign
with great ability and satisfactory
results, and deserves to be re elected.
Furthermore, the Governor said that
SO far as his influence would go with
the convention, it would be exerted
in Colonel Cooks behalf, should the
latter stand in need CT any help
There is nothing new in the Gov
errors statement that he is not a
candidate for the United States
Senate. He has denied these reports
publicly at least half dozen times
during the last year, until he now
assumes that deniaIs are becoming a
drug on the market. As far as his
support of Col Cook is concerned,
that will be news TO the politicians,
who have generally supposed that
the Governor would prefer TO see
someone else at the head of the
State Committee.
From the person quoted as having
had conversation with the Cover
nor it was further learned that the
efforts being made by friends of the
Chief Executive to induce county
conventions to indorse his admins
tration are not intended to boom him
for the United States Senate, but
merely IS a compliment This same
claim was made several days ago by
other friends of the Governor.
1t seems that none of Senator
Cockrells friends ha Re exhibited any
alarm over the reported aspirations
of Governor Stephens. They express
the opinion that the Senator will
have no opposition.

How Gold Supply Is Estimated

Washington, D. O., April 21.-
Secretary Gage to day sent to the
Senate a reply to the resolution
passed on the 5.h inst, requesting
information from him as to his man
ner of ascsrtsinlng the amount Of
gold in the country Ha says that
all estimates begin with the calcula
ton made in 1872 by DR.. Linderman,
then Director of the Mint, who
placed the stock at S128,3S9, 1874, and
that since this time the estimates
have bsen arrived at by adding to
the stock Of 1879 the annual coinage
and the domestic coin imported,
deducting the loss on account of
re-coinags and expectation. The
secretary says the estimate of the
amount used in the industrial arts is
based upon censuses made by the
Mint Bureau and upon annual re-
ports received from private smeltel 6
and rs6ners. The secretary also
furnishes an estimate of the loss by
wear and otherwise of paper money,
the total smount of which on all
issues he places at $13,145,300.
