The receivers Of the Baltimore 4
Ohio Railroad have turned their atten-
ton to the improvement of the grades
on the third division. from Cumber-
land to Grafton, or rather that portion
which lies between Altamont, the top
Of the seventeen-mile grade, and Ter
"a Alta, where the Cranberry grade be-
gins to descend. The line passes
through Deer Park and Oakland and
crosses what is known as the "Glades"
of the Allegheny Mountains. Tho
grades are short and choppy, some of
them being 80 to IS feet to the mile.
One Of the first pieces of work to be
done is now in progress at No. So Cut.
where the grade is being reduced from
81 feet to 421z feet per mile, with equa-
lions for curvature. It is expected
that the cutting down of this grade
will enable the receivers to increase
the train load from 1000 tons to 1900
tons on east-bOund trains. One mile
OF the roadway will be lowered and it
Is expected that the work will be COM
pleted by the middle of October.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The Presi
dent has decided to make practical
use OF American rights at Pago-P Page
harbor, Samoa, and the esta lishment
OF fully equipped naval coaling sta
ton there will be undertaken at once.
With this end in view Frank p.
Chambers. civil engineer, now on duty
at the New York navy ward,
has been ordered to Wash
ington for consultation with the
authorities prior to departing next
week with full power to carry out the
important project. Pago-Pago is the
only harbor of any value in the Sa-
moan group and the one considered bv
naval officers of scarcely less strategic
Importance in the Pacific ocean than
Pearl harbor, Hawaii. The decision to
utilize the concession secured by Ad-
mlral Meade twenty-five years ago.
giving the United States permanent
ownership of the harbor, indicates
sufficiently the administr atoms appre-
citation of the vastly extended sphere
OF American interests in the Pacific
1t is the Inauguration of great naval
and commercial policy in that direc.
ton due in great measure to the "a.

Baltimore to visit Captain Concha,
commander of the admiral's flagship
Maria Teresa and the other Spanish
sick and wounded at the navy hospital
here. This was the first time they
had met since the fatal dash out
OF Santiago harbor. The meeting
was pathetic one, the admiral
and captain embracing one another
like children. The admiral then Wis
tied Lieutenant Noval of the Pluton,
who lost a leg, Drs. Nicoli and August

equally affecting when their former
chief entered the ward where the Span
ish sailors are. Their faces lit up and
they embraced him as best they could,
their joy being plainly visible. The ad-
miral took lunch with Medical Director
Cleborne. and it is said he will remain
here several days.

LONDON, Aug. Shat extreme
diplomatic tension exists between St.
Petersburg and London is generally
admitted to-day, though the officials
depreciate the alarmist reports which
were current yesterday. It is hoped
that the firmer stand adopted by the
Marquis of Salisbury during the last
few days, which seems to have ALREADY
created some misgiving at St. Peters
burg, will have the desired effect of
arresting Russian aggressiveness. It
is felt both here and upon the CONT
nent that the outcome of the dispute
In regard to the New Chwang railroad
extension is the crucial point of the
success or failure of Great Britain's
policy for the ''open door,"

and men ready to take her out to sea
when the time arrives,
According to Paris advices, Admiral
Bedolliere, commanding the French
China squadron, has cabled demand
for reinforcements and for large
credit to be applied to erecting FORTH
cations. The reason given for these
is that the natives of the
kwang Chou Wang region are show
ing signs of hostility. But there is
some suspicion here that the action of
the French admiral may be connected
with desire to back up Russian de-
signs.
