The report on railways in India for
1878 has just been published by the
Indian Office in London. The follow
ing is a summary of some Nof the re-
suits pointed out; The totals length of
railways open on March 81, 1888, was
25, ,4541 miles, being a net n'crease of
926 miles over the precedingS year; OF
this mileage q, 1861 were i'll full
operation on that date, being an in
crease of 766. The mean mileage
worked during the year was 20, 53l,
being an increase of 748 miles. The
gross earnings for 1918 amounted
to $51 100, ,339, which is an increase of
nearly $4,000 over the previous
year. In the same period the work
ing expenses amounted to $31 200, 600,
which was a little more than last year.
The net earnings amounted to 1872,
71O, being a decrease of $21O1S72.
Of the total gross earnings, 73. 81 per
cent. was earned by the standard
gauge lines, 1852 per cent. by the
meter gauge, and the balance, .61'per
cent, by the special gauge lines. The
total number of passengers booked in
the year showed decrease OF 8. .94per
cent. The passenger earnings de-
creased by 731 per cent. What is
termed "other coaching" trafficshowed
an increase of 26.01 per cent. The
report explains this seeming paradox
by stating that the falling off'in pas
senger traffic" in 1997fwas chiefly due
to the prevalence of the plague ant
the famine, while the increase under
"other coaching traffic" was princl
pally due to the abnormal receipts OF

The Washington correspondent of
the London Daily Mail reports an in
terview with distinguished American
officer, who is represented as dilating
upon the immense superiority of Ameri-
can warships over British, especially
in armor and armament. The officer
is said to have declared that the United
States battleship Alabama could blow
the British battleship Majestic out of
water, and to have predicted that in
the next century America will be build.
ing warships for everybody. Even
now," he says, "the United States is
able to build much cheaper than Ger
many or England" The Daily Mail,
commenting editorially upon this
startling statement, says: "We have
verified the data and are compelled to
acknowledge the correctness of the
statement. We know also that there
is distinct uneasiness in the highest
ranks of the British Navy at the under
armament of our ships"

Insurgent AguinaIdO Checked.

Hong Kong, Aug. MATTERS with
reference to Aguinaldo, the leader of the
insurgents. are assuming a more def
mite and satisfactory shape. He had
instructed the Filipinos not to sell or to
furnish transportation facilities to the
Americans except at his order, aiming,
doubtless, to delay the Americans, in
order that he might be the one to capture
Manila.
Hearing this General Anderson served
notice upon him that he would make
requisition on the people direct. He had
the notice printed in the native Ian
guage and published broadcast. There
upon Aguinaldo promptly replied that he
would honor General Anderson requisi-
tions for military necessaries upon four
days notice.

London, Aug. "A dispatch to Tho
Times from Cavite dated July 25 says;
1T is becoming more apparent daily
that there are serious complications
ahead. The Americans never made a
greater mistake than in bringing Aguin-
aldo and the insurgent leaders here and
giving them arms and ammunition.
Aguinaldo, fearing annexation by the
Americans, openly opposes them. Either
he has been corrupted by some foreign
power, or he has a false notion OF the
strength of the Philippine revolution
lists, failing to recognize that their
recent successes are due to the cOncen-
tration of Spanish strength at Manila
consequent upon the presence of the
Americans. He dictates to the Ameri d.
can authorities in absurdly inflated
terms. He compelled the natives at
the southern approaches to Manila TO
register their bulloCks, ponies and con-
yeyances, instructing the owners not to
supply them to the Americans without
his sanction. General Anderson warned
AguinaldO that force would be used to
impress the means of transport, which
were ultimately forthcoming. Aguin-
aldos attitude makes future operations
against Manila prOblematic.
In my opinion, with the aid of the
fleet the city might have already been
American. Nothing but the compica-
tions with the natives prevented an
advance. Now the violent rains have
set in, making operations arduous and
threaten the health of the men. Aguin-
aldo's forces encircle the city, making
| daily and nightly attacks. The Span
| iards still hold the whole of the suburbs.
| Occasional sorties are made, in which
the loss of life is slight. Two miles be-
hind Aguinaldos lines, south of Manila
| 5000 American troops are encamped
The remainder are at Cavite. Aguin-
aldo is understood to have objected tC
the advance of the Americans to ground
captured by the insurgents.
81 am convinced that the Philippines
will never capture Manila unaided, anC
that. If the Americans withdraw, tht
fate of the natives under Spanish rule
will be worse than before. The bes
solution of the political situation woul'
be that America should administer tn

pits have been erected. There was also
a plot to blow up the entire American
army when it reaches the city. The
Spaniards have laid pipes under the
ground, filled with powder and other ex-
plOsives, leading to mines beneath the
city. Should their defenses fail they
intend to surrender the city, allowing
the American troops to take possession,
and when the Americans are we'll within
the city, a signal will be given, causing
the mines to do their deadly work and.
as they believe, annihilate the Ameri-
can army in that vicinity. These pipes
also lead to mine three miles outside
the city. Before the signal is given the
Spanish army will be far away from
danger.

The coming textile fibre, according
to Textile America, is that of the
ramie plant. Already, it appears,
manufe cturers of hosiery and fancy
goods are using the fibre on large
scale, and the facilities for washing
such textures have contributed to their
increasing manufacture for table linen,
bed sheets, etc. The fact is also i'm
portant that the different tests made
with this and other vegetable fibres,
such as flax, hemp, cotton, etc, have
been in favor of the ramie, and for this
reason it is gradually gaining favor in
another branch, namely, the produc
ton of sailcloth, awnings and cover
ings for carriages, on account of its
being less sensitive to atmospheric
influences, acids and septics. Knitted
underwear made of ramie-this indus
try, it may be remarked, being one in
which the material has been most sue
cessfully introduced-is not only one
that has acquired quite liking from
the public because of its extreme dur
ability and silky finish, but also for its
estimated hygienic advantages; these
latter are based on the substance ad-
mitting of normal perspiration without
generating or retaining the disagree
able heat caused by textures made of
other fibres, while hot water ,and soap
will also cleanse it without any ex-
posure to strong friction.
