FUELING WARSHIPS.
How Commodore Bradford II eeps the
Bankers of Our Great Ocean
Fighters Full of Coal.

One of the greatest triumphs of the
war which has been hidden from pub
lie observation has been the work of
the several bureaus of the navy de-
partment in furnishing supplies and
equipments for the troops, says a
Washington dispatch in the Chicago
Record. As Secretary Long remarked
in recent interview, their duties have
been quite as valuable as those of the
feet in Cuban waters or the harbor
of Manila. But for their foresight and
executive ability the ships might have
been helpless for the lack of fuel, am
munition and food. The superiority
Ct our naval organization and the abil-
ity of our bureau chiefs has been dem
onstrated in a striking manner. One
of the most remarka BILE has been fur
nished by the bureau of equipment in
the distribution of coal. No matter
how frequently or suddenly the scene
CT naval activity is changed, the yes
sells must have fuel, and it has been
Commodore Bradford's business to see
that loaded Golfers were on hand
when they were wanted. Without the
employ ment of an extra clerk and
without the slightest parade he has
succeeded in keeping the bunkers of
every vessel in the navy full of coal
from the beginning of hostilities, 10
matter whether they were on the
North Atlantic coast or in the Carib-
bean sea. or in the ports of the Pacific
or the Philippine islands. AT the same
time he has been able to furnish fuel
for the army transportsiD both oceans
without allowing his coal pile. at the
source of supply to be diminished.
Some idea of the magnitude of this
task is suggested by the fact that
within the last four months 10000
tons of coal have been delivered to the
ships of the United States navy in va
rious parts of the world. at a cost OF
nearly 81 900, 900. Over $4,000 tons have
been distributed from Key West alone
and 10000 tons from Honolulu.

The Latter Territory Was Long n
Dependency of the
Former.

From the foundation of Manila in
1871 up to the year 1919 the colony of
the Philippine islands was depend
ency of Mexico. says the Contemporary
Review. During that long period there
was absolutely TO direct intercourse
between the mother country and her
far eastern colony. Every body and
everything destined for the Philip
pines passed through Mexico until the
American colony threw off the Span
ISL yoke. Thenceforth, for 81 years,
communication with Spain was via the
Cape of Good Hope. The commercial
history of the Philippines would be
TOO long TO relate here in eXtenso; suf-
flee it to say that it is a series Of strug-
giles between the colonists, who sought
liberty 20 trade freely with Mexico and
China, and the Spanish king and his
councillors and the trading community
in Spain, who persistently determined
TO curtail that freedom as much as
possible. The policy of the Spanish
merchant class was to hold Mexico as
their exclusive market. They opposed
Philippine traffic with China because
this necessitated silver dollars, which
they knew must come from Mexico
surreptitiously, if the islanders were
not openly permitted TO give goods in
exchange. The famous galleons, which
were SC frequently interrupted and
seized by British privateers from the
days of our Queen Elizabeth onward,
formed the only connection between
Mexico (Acapulco) and Manila.
