NEARING THE END.

The House did good work yesterday
and passed second reading of Bill No.
a, which deals with general appro-
priations from current account, and
nearly completed Bill No. 3,
which appropriates the salaries of
government officials. The first of
these has been so added to and chang
ed on its passage that it is barely rec
ognizable, but it undoubtedly will be
reduced from its present inflated pro-
portions during third reading, which
ought to be easily over before the end
of next week. The salary bill is some
what reduced in the figures that pass
ed the Senate, and on revision some of
the items will very likely be restored
to their original figures.
When the two bills come as a whole
the members will better realize what
has been done and what is necessary
to do. A distinct effort should be
made to bring the proposed eXpendi
lures within the estimated income
which can be reckoned at 100000 pei
year. There are men in the House
who thoroughly appreciate the neces
sity of pairing down expenditures, ant
the Ministry are equally anxious up
on the point, because theI.appropria

amount of shipping entering all the
open ports of the Philippine Islands,
which are Manila, Iloilo and Cebu.
The total number of vessels from
the United States during the year
1897 was "a, of which one was a

ample room for trade expansion with
the United States and should the Mic

fact within a few years. the number
of American vessels trading direct
would increase materially. \ popu-

1t is Il curious fact that war frequent

Up to the present time the trade at
Manila has been hampered. as all

by veNatious customs duties, the OBJ
ject of these being to confine the Co.
lonial trade as much as possible to
the mother country, so that she could
obtain the products cheap, and sell her
manufactures as dear as possible.
Thus there are import duties, then an
extra tax of per cent, then a tax of
2per cent on unloading, then "A tax on
cargoes. then an "eXtraordinary tax
of 6 per cent on cargoes,' besides
fines, storage, consumption tax, and
of course little presents to the GUS
toms officers from the highest official
to the tide waiter, which brings up
the sum total of landing a cargo to Il
respectable sum. And in spite of all
this rascality the trade was large.

that the country is in the dark as to

AN ATTRACTIVE PLACE.
Brownsville Correspondent tells of the
Pump Station here-Other Notes from
the down River Town.

BROWNSVILLE. Aug. 29.-One of
the most interesting places to visit
along the Monongahela is the pump
ing station of the Standard Oil com
pany about two miles above Nor
gantown. The buildings and the
grounds about the station are very
pretty Eight lines from the West
Virginia oil fields are run into this
place and the oil is forced through
pipe line eight inches in diameter
all the way to Baltimore, Md. The
immense steam pumps, which cost
more than a million dollars, work
with such smoothness that they are
almost noiseless. Very few of the
exeursionists to Morgantown know
that such an interesting place is
situated near.
The United States government re-
quires the contractors for the new
Monongahela locks and dams to
furnish what gravel is needed in
their construction from the Alleghe-
ny river. The gravel is loaded in
flats and towed down the Allegheny
and up the Monongahela, distance
of 12S miles. 1t is claimed that this
gravel is of superior quality.
The contractors for the new locks
and dams on the upper Monongahe-
la are collecting the stones along the
river shores into piles. These will
be loaded into flats and used in the
construction of the locks and dams.
Anyone who will visit the wharves
when the regular packets pass up
and down will be surprised at the
number of passengers and the
amount of freight which the boats
carry at the present time.
