Major Condo and Adjutant Powell may
not get away and begin the work of re-
cruiting their battalions for a day or two.
Last night Major Condo said that he wanted
to get fuller instructions with reference to
the subsistence and transportation of the
men. 1t is his understanding that each re-
cruiting officer is to appoint his own ply
stefan to make the examinations.

TO THE PHILIPPINES.
Indianapolis Recruits Have n Chance
to Go.

to Co.
The regular army authorities have de-
cided to take some lively steps in the direc-
ton of sending more troops at once to the
Philippines. This is evidenced by the fact
that yesterday Captain Black received the
following telegram from the War Depart
ment at Washington
"Adjutant general directs that you make
special effort to secure heavy artillery re-
cruits for the Third Artillery. Send in small
attachments to the Preside, San Francisco.
to reach there within ten days. Demand
urgent. Telegraph this office on completion
of number sent
''Signed, WARD. Asst Adj. Gen.
There will be no compulson used with
the recruits in sending the men to the Pa
cifc coast, but SO many desire to make the
long trip to the Philippines that there will
hardly be any difficulty in getting the men
required. Thus far the recruiting rec
ord of this city has been ahead of that CT
any city in the country with the exception
of New York which is a source of joint
pride with Captain Black and the city.

The American Silk Industry.

The fine showing of prosperity is
made for the silk trade of the United
States in the annual review printed by
the "American Silk Journal" In spite
Of the prevalence of phenomenallv low
prices, the output of manufactured
goods amounts in value to nearly $780,
OO0,000, and the consumption of raw
silk reached 81, 5iS bales, valued at s2S, :
IA 357, tho largest in bulk, though not
in value, in the history Of the trade.
Add to this the erection and equipment
of fitty-seven new factories, together
with additions TO buildings and machin-
cry of existing plants, and the forma-
ton of thirtyfour new firms and corpo-
gratifying one.
The prospect for the coming year,
under conditions of general prosperity,
are most flattering for the silk industry.
1t has been one of the most enterpris-
ing and progressive of all the thriving
industries of America. and has in an
eminent ueSTee Deen successful IN DEM
onstratlng that, supported by a fair
amount of protection, American skill
and taste can in every case successfully
compete with the older and more ia
yorably situated institutions of Europe.
In no branch of Yankee enterprise has
this fact been more conclusiveiy demon
strated than in the case of American
siik.-Amercan Economist.

a Popular Chord.

The way in which our remarks last
week on the action o. the EnJion club,
IN enjoinins the city from proceeding
with the refunding scheme. were re-
ceived by the public, would seem to
indicate that the TINES struck a popu-
lar chord, as it has been very generally
commended for its fearless denuncia-
ton of the action Of the club.
As We then said, while the two
and a quarter per cent. seems too much
TO pay, vet the fact remains that when
the brokers, from whom the money
Is to come, get their "raKe-otfo" -they
never do anything for nothing-there
will not be mach left for Mr.. Culver In
amy case the percentage allowed is not
50 large and the other conditions Of the
agreement with Mr.. Culver SO unfavor-
able, as to warrant the action of the
Endion club in appealing to the courts.
Considering the benefits to accrue
IL property holders by the refunding
of the city's debt the cost of CARRYING
out the scheme Is mere trihe. The
plea that those who have paid their
SPECIAL assessments will have to pay
share OF tie 81 per cent. is not without
It's force, but it cannot be avoided, be-
sides their loss will be nothing to their
gain. We cannot agree with the gentle
man who looks upon the action of the
i.ndion club as one in the city's inter
est. We cannot believe its action was
prompted Ey a desire other than to
defeat the efforts OF the present city adj
ministration to do what others failed to
do, no matter what the consequences
to the city.

War Against the Gypsy Moth.

Mr.. Fletcher Osgood has an interest
ing account in the current "Harper's
Monthly" Of the campaign in Massa-
chusetts against the gypsy-moth and
its product, the gypsy-caterpillar. This
war has been going on for seven years.
Scientists firmly believe that IL vigil
lance were relaxed this pest would alb
solutely destroy all vegetation. 1t is
mathematically demonstratable that,
if unrestricted by any cause, the in
crease Of a single pair Of gypsy-moths
could in eight years devour the entire
vegetation Of the United States
Arsenic and similar pOisons have prac-
ticaliy no effect; the gypsy-moth will
bear cold, heat, damp and starvation,
with provoking vitality; and the birds
refuse to eat the eggs or insects. The
Massachusetts Board of Agriculture
keeps a uniformed force Of men at
work in the infested district, who ad-
vance under command of minor and
major officers with almost military dis
cipline, through the woods and over
the farms, examining every branch Of
every tree, all the fences, buildings.
rubbish heaps and the like The eggs
are often closely hidden, and are very
difficult to destroy. Only by the most
persistent and laborious effort sys-
tematized in a high degree, can any
impression be made on the enemy. AL
together forty-two millions of trees
have been inspected, and about four
billions Of the caterpillars have been
destroyed. The moth and caterpillar
first appeared in numbers near Med
ford, and it is said that they were i'm
ported a quarter of century ago by
some one who believed that cross be-
tween this creature and the silkworm
would produce a hardy fine silkworm
The infested country in 1892 included
220 square miles; today only IS
square miles remain prey to these
creatures, and in q few years they will
probably be utterly eXterminated. The
danger to the whole country thus
ayerted by the intelligent action of
Massachusetts was a very real and
quite serious one. Tiny and con-
tenptible as is the individual enemy,
when he Is to be counted by billions
he can bring drought and ruin. In
deed the gypsy-moth, Mr.. Osgood tells
US. has in Russia completely ravaged
a territory as large as al the Atlantic
states Du- together.
