They are Amused

The st. Louis Republic of Tuesday
says: 1.-THE wholesale merchants and
jobbers of this city are amused at the
complaints which come from Galveston
in regard to the new schedule of
freight rates from New York to Texas
points, which went into effect yester-
day. They claim that 1t is case of q
difference as to whose OK was Qor-
ed and that Galveston is simply being
deprived of the advantages she former
ly enjoyed over st. Louis, Chicago
ano other iobbiug centers.
The new rate is.importaut because it
means the settlement of one of the Bit
terest rate wars ever fought in this
country. 1t started in July, 1897, and
has been waged with more or less Wig
or ever since. The through railroad
rates were cut to meet the cut in
steamship rates, and interior rates
we're cut to con form with the through
rates, and the result was that ST. Louis
was practically shut out OF the Texas
trade
"Traffic Commissioner Vanlanding-
ham and the local shippers entered a
vigorous protest and the present rates,
while they are not quite what was de-
sired, may still be regarded as a vic
ry for ST. Louis.
Under the cut rates, which have
been effective the past year, the rate
from New DIRK to Texas common
points was the same as the rate from
St. Louis to the same points, but under
the new schedule, which went into
effect yesterday. the rates from St.
Louis to Texas common points are %
cents less than the New York rates.
This means big thing for ST. Louis
shippers, and will admit of their again
entering the Texas trade on something
like an equitable basis.
THE ditferentisl between the Chi
cago and ST. Louis rates to Texas COM
mon points amounts to 20 cents in
favor of st. Louis, but this is equslized
to some extent by the differential in
favor of Chicago in the New York
rates.

Ia 1886 the United States exported
50 locomotive engines. the average
of which was $4,000 and the total value
100000. OF these engines, 30 were
sent to Brazil, South and Central
America, and Cuba, 10 to Australia
and seven to the Dominion of Canada :
In 1897, 33S locomotives were export
ed. Their total value was 50, $50, 900,
and the average was $1,000. This in
dictates that much larger, heavier and
more expensive engines were sold
abroad than in 1886.
The geographical distribution of
those exported last year was as follows
Mexico rs; Russia, 80: Japan. 95: South
and Central America and the West
Indies, 1S: China, -; Canada, 8: the
Hawaiian islands, and Great Britain,

in the foreign demand for
the fine American locomotives

parts of the world. Since January L,
270 locomotives have been ordered for
the foreign market. OF these, 10 are
for Japan, 80 for the Manchurian rail-
way, 36 for Russia, "A for Egypt, II for
Finland and 10 for New Zealand. The
turers are not able to compete with the
Americans in neutral markets.
During the first 10 months of the
present fiscal year, 366 locomotive en-
gines, valued at S2,9S0,O00, have been
sent abroad. They are not the. only pro-
ducts of American mechanical skill

making representations 10 Spain concern
ing the independence of Cuba. The blow
ing up of the Maine is to be used as an
additional and final argument TO why
Il speedy end should BE- brought to the
war in Cuba.
President Mckinley is anticipating a
decision which will show the main cause
of the disaster to have been an outside
explosion and the court viii be unable to
show what person or persons committed
the crime. A cabinet member told me
that while the president was preparing to
make diplomatic representations to Spain
on an indemnity basis, he was not I'M
mindful of the possibilities of the find
ings by the court which would make war
unavoidable. and that the extraordinary
military and naval preparations were con-
sequently begun.
This official told me that only a de-
cision showing the positive and direct
connection of Spanish officials with the
Maine disaster would prevent the presi-
dent from carrying out his determination
TO deal with the Maine catastrophe in a
strictly legal and diplomatic way. 1t may
be further stated that the president hopes
and expects that this mater can be ad-
jused automatically.
4 am informed that ii is now the pur-
pose of the president TO make congress
Jointly responsible for any action in deal
ing with the Cuban question which may
result in war. He believes that the in
dependence of Cuba is written in the book
of Fate. He further believes that the
blowing UP Of the Maine makes 1t impera-
tive upon this country to do something
at the earnest GATE possible 10 emu the
war in Cuba. but he is not convinced as
10 the best means of doing this without
bringing war.
He has said that he will not be re-
sponsible for an. 'unholy war If the
United States is to be made responsible
for preciptating a war, he declares con-
gross shall share the responsibility with
him.
Instead of issuing a proclamation re-
cognizing the independence of Cuba, as
81 has been frequently asserted he would
President Mckinley is now of the opinion
that congress should take the initiative.
it is for that reason that the administra-
ton has changed its programme in favor
of an early adjournment. l am now
sured that the president wants congress
to stay here until the Cuban question is
In a fair way to settlement. There is no
further doubt that the holding of the
Spanish Torpedo fotilla at the Canaries
and the withdrawal of the battleShips
from the vicinity of Cuba, was the result
of an agreement reached by the Washing
ton and Madrid governments.
