AS for the feet the Monterey. it is
true, had arrived and was ready to match
her 10 and Pinch guns against the 9h-
inch Krupps of The enemy; but the bay
was so rough that our fleet would have
fought at great disadvantage. 1t was
none too well supplied with ammunition,
and the admiral very wisely desired to
keep enough in reserve to use on the Ger
mans in case Of necessity. The German
admiral had acted with such insolence dur
ing this whole crisis that, had we attacked
and failed to take Manila, there were good
grounds for believing that he would have
carried his interference to the point where
Admiral Dewey's forbearance would cease
and his guns be brought into play.

AN EXPENSIVE APPARATUS.

The train Numbered through the
town in silence, says a Western writ
er. Another declares that it is indeed
a thrilling sight to see a train thunder
through a town in silence and adds
that a certain railroad president is eek
perimenting with a thunder-siIeuce de
vice with gratifying success" Then
follows this bit Of excellent fooling:
Job CogswelI, the we'll known and
handsome old locomotive engineer,
says it has befaIIen the lot Of few Of his
craft to see a train laundering in sill
ence. In the first place, Cog says, few
roads can afford to equip their engines
with the thunder-siIence apparatus, as
it costs like sixty. When the appara-
tus is decreased in cost it is the pur-
pose of all roads to have one. on every
train"

were made to them. They express
strong desire to maintain friendly in

frame a plan of government. Manila is
very quiet. The military government

The health OF the command is satisfac-

The Philippines monthly expenses will
aggregate at least 1850, 900, nearly one
half being required ito subsist 13, 900

ceipts will largely exceed expenditures.
