This Means Business.

On the principal lines of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railway passen-
ger trains are electric-lighted. steam
heated and protected by block signals.
With these modern appliances, rail-
way travelling at high speeds has reach
ed a degree Of safety heretofore UNI
known and not attaiuable on roads
where they are not in use. Electric
lights and steam heat make it possible
to dispense with the oil lamp and the
car stove. Block signals have reduced
the chances for collisions to the mini
mum by maintaining an absolute in-
terval OF space between trains. l.. T..

one examination and glasses fitted at
very reasonable prices where they are

THE SCENE OF THE BATTLE.
Location Of Manila and Its Neish-
boring Town, Cavitc.

Manila. the capital city of the Island OF
I.uzon and of all the Philippine lslands'
Is situated OH Manila Bay, at the mouth
Of the river Pasig. The city forms the
segment of a circle between the river
and the sea. and it's suburbs extend over
numerous sets. formed by the river and
it's branches The river Pasig Is prolong-
ed into the bay by two piers. AT the END
Of one of them is a small fort, and a
lighthouse is situated at the end of the
other pier. Vessels OF small tonnage can
so up as far as the bridge which crosses
the river.
The town stands on the south side. has
a diapidated look. but is said to be
strongly fortified. On the north side is
the Binondo suburb, which is the resi-
dence Of the foreign merchants and the
great centre of trade. 1t Is more popu-
lous than the city itself.
Cavite is in the bay Of Manila, and
about ten miles southwest of the city OF
Manila. The town has population Of
over 5,0O0 and the population of the port
Is less than 800 souls There Is an arse
nal at Cavite, which is the capital of the
province of the same name. The resi-
dence of the Governor is situated there.
and the place is the chief naval depot Of
the Spanish possessions in that part Of
the world.

Lieutenant Colwell. the United states
naval altache, DECLARED that the result
was merely whasS he expected.
The hotel bulletins are surrounded Win
enthusiastic Americans, many OF them
displaying miniature flags.
Many British naval officers have ex-
pressed the warmest admiration for the
work of the American fleet. In fact, the
preponderance of sentiment in the
British navy seems to. be with the Ameri-
cans throughout. the officers giving many
practical proofs OF their partiality. In
ternational courtesy. however. debarred
the high officials from commenting ON
the results
SPANISH AUxILIARIES.
All the Information obtainable here
concerning the Spanish force of auxiliary
cruisers. in regard to which vague re-
ports have emanated from Madrid, tends
to show that 1t has been overestimated.
The best two ships, the Columbia and the
Normanna. formerly OF the Hamburg
American Line, are yet unarmed, and 1t
is believed they will be unable to secure
armament.
The chief factor OF the Spanish auxili-
airy force OF cruisers consists in the six
steamers belonging to the Barcelona
Transatlantic Steamship Company. They
are fairly armed. but they have been
scattered. Two OF them are with the
Cape Verde squadron. as transports, one
is conveying the torpedo fotilla, another,
IT IL said, is at Santiago de Cuba, and
two are at Cadia.
