directing the claims committee to make
an inquiry as TO the disposition of the
money appropriated by congress to pay

discussion. Mr.. Chandler said tina. Mr.

statement, but Adr. Chandler insisted that
it was correst, and refused TO withdraw
1t, although he disclaimed any intention
to reflect upon Mr.. Pascos honor. The
resolution probably will be called up again
tomorrow. Todays discussion of the mat
ter developed the fact that Major r. B.

THE PHILIPPINES.

Quoting from the Philadelphia
Press, paper owned by Charles En-
airy Smith, the newly appointed Post
master General, the Argonaut says
that the policy of the government of
the United States is there pretty
clearly outlined with regard to its in
tentions towards the Philippine Is
lands. The Argonaut points out that
the paragraph had special prominence
given to it in the editorial column,
and that coming from the source 1T
does, it may be regarded as inspired.
The article runs as follows:
"The United States will keep the
Philippine Islands until it sees some
thing better to do with them. This
is the national policy on which Nc
Kinley is acting, and it is the only one
on which either he or the nation can
act. As an act of war our fleet has
captured the harbor of Manila, and in
a few weeks more our troops will have
completed the occupation of Manila
and the conquest of the Islands. The
national duty is clear as to these
points. General Merritt is as compe-
tent to act as military governor of
Manila as any one of the scores of
English generals put in like positions.
An American force is just as compe-
tent as an English force of the same
size to occupy and pacify the islands
and their nine million inhabitants.
Be American! Have confidence in
Americans. The Philippines cannot
go back to Spain. Perish the man
who would dare suggest that these
islands should be given back to the
corrupt and cruel tyranny from which
Dewey's guns freed them"
With such a policy clearly outlined,
there must follow naturally the an
nexation of these Islands. If the
United States enters upon colonial
policy in the Far East, it will assured.
ly take possession of the Hawaiian
Islands. Several things will follow
this. 1t will certainly mean a naval
station at Pearl Harbor, and it will
mean a cable line as fast as it can be
constructed. 1t will mean large eX-
tension in United States trade across
the Pacific, and it will mean that
Honolulu will become a port of call for
deep sea ships. This will mean a
large extension of business and an in.
creasing prosperity for the Islands.
But though the retention of the
Philippine Islands is largely advocat,
ed in the East, in San Francisco there
is not the same desire expressed. But
that will come in time especially when
the Western boys have made the con
quest and write home about it.

LIQUID AIR.

Every now and then Science gives
us some new marvel to astonish us. \
while ago it was the Rontgen ray;
now it is liquid air. Accounts of this
wonder have appeared in many of the
papers, and magazines, but the Cos
mopolitan is the clearest and most
succicent. 1t has been stated that air
could not be liquitied, yet under enor-
nous pressure it has been. Eight
hundred cubic feet of air will give one
cubic foot of liquid The writer re-
members attending Faraday's lect-
ures at the British Institute and see
ing him solidify carbonic acid gas,
that is. after being subjected to great
pressure it appeared as a fine powder,
something like very dry snow on a
cold day. So Faraday was on the
track of liquified air, but did not
reach it.
The question when any new dscov-
cry is made is, can it be put to prac-
teal use. The Y ray has been put
to practical use in surgery and has
proved a benefit to mankind. The
many uses that liquid air can be put
to are apparent, and many more will
propably be discovered. 1t is a para
doxical liquid, for it is intensely cold
and yet it will boil water and even
set fire to a steel bar.
From the intensity of its cold it
will doubtless be largely used for the
preservation of meats and fruits. In
hotels and manufactures the same
power which drives the dynamos and
elevators might be used in the re-
frigeration, and liquid air could be
used for cooling the rooms. 1t can
be used as motor, and as such would
furnish motive power to ships and to
railway engines. Finally under GER
tain circumstances it can be used as
high explosive, stronger than dyna-
mite or melanite or the many explo-
sives now in use. If all that is now
claimed for it is true, it is the most
wonderful discovery of this or any
age.
