LEAFS THE WORLD
New York's Proud Position as the
Greatest Shipping Port.
HAS PASSED LONDON IN TIE RACE
Victory for Which the Whole Ma
ton Deserves Credit.
GROWTH OF OUR COMMERCE

Written for The Evening Star.
After three centuries Of undisturbed su-
premacy London has at last been forced
to yield her proud position as the foremost
commercial city of the world. Like many
another trophy of old-world power and in
fiuence, this distinction has at last crossed
the Atlantic to America, and now rests
with the city of New York. Although Lon
don had a large population and a wide
commerce when the first settlers built their
log houses Manhattan Island, 1t has
taken the new world city little more than
a. century to catch up with her venerable
rival. New York scarcely began to have
commercial Importance until after the
close of the revolution, and even at the be-
ginning of the nineteenth century her trade
was only one-tenth that Of the British
metropolis. Not even the most sanguine
of Americans dared to prophesy fifty years
ago that before the close Of the nineteenth
century New York would replace London
as the most important seaport in the world.
Even so recently as ten years ago the
struggle between New York and Hamburg
for second place was much more close than
the race between the American city and
the British metropolis. But in the year
1893. which is likely to be remembered as a
momentous one in the history of the United
covered 2s0 years ago not only drew safely
away from the busy town at the mouth Of
the Elbe. but surpassed the lordly city of
the Thames as we'll.
Forthcoming Treasury Report.
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Van
derlip is authority for the statement that
New York is now in position of suprem-
acy among the commercial cities Of the
world. MIR. Vanderlip says:
Il am glad to be able to announce that
the forthcoming annual report of the COM
missioner of navigation contains the state
ment that New York is, or at least Is about
to become, the first seaport of the world
The figures on which this statement is
based are those giving the tonnages of ves-
SeiS reported as entering and clearing from
the port of New York in the foreign trade
only, since no record of coastwise trade Is
Kept In American ports. The tonnage fig
ures for the last fiscal year for the port
in the preceding year London gained 215, 900
tons to New York's increase of 1,131, ,727
The monthly reports for the present year
thus far indicate that New York has main
tanned her advance, while London certain
ly has not increased hers. This puts New
York into the first place, so far as ocean
commerce Is concerned"
The total tonnage of vessels entering at
or clearing for foreign ports from New
York and the figures reported at London
OF vessels engaged in trade with foreign
or colonial ports are shown in the follow
Ing table. The years indicated are fiscal
years. ending on June 80. except In the last

POSSIBLE TROUBLE WITH CUu.xs
II May Result From Our Takinr Con.
troll at Santiago

Some apprehension is expressed here tbo.
the assumption by the United States gov
ernment of the control of affairs at San
ti6go may lead to trouble with the Cuhsns
1t is recalled that few days before the
surrender of the city, and in anticipa tion
OF that event. Gen. Garcia sent a COM
mittee to Gen. Shafter informing him that
the Cubans had selected governor for the
city in the person of one Castillo. 1t ,s
plain however, from the reading of the
PRESIDENTS order to Gen. Shafter that Il
VIII be long time before this Cuban off,
Ger is allowed to exercise the functions of
governor in Santiago. Indeed, it is be-
ieved 1t is the Presidents purpose when
the military government he has just erect
eo gives way to replace it with nothing
snort OF popular government, meaning a
government for Santiago chosen by the free
vote OF the people of Santiago.
Some doubt is expressed as to whether
TINS program Will be entirely acceptable to
that element Of the Cuban party which de-
mands immediate possession of captured
territory, but as the administration is con-
vinced that this element is neither the most
numerous nor respectable in the Cuban
cause. it is believed that their dissatisfac-
ton Will take TO more dangerous form
than protests and growIs. 1t has been sug-
gested that the Presidents action in the
case OF Santiago might be construed by
European nations as indicating an intent
to disregard the terms of the congressional
resolution which precipitated the war and
to mean permanent seizure of the islands
in behalf of the United States. This view.
however, will not, it is believed, obtain to
any extent among the representatives of
the European nations in the United States
who are aware of the necessity of some
such action as that adopted by the Presi-
dent to prevent excesses and lawless ex-
travagance at Santiago that would earn the
condemnation of the civilized world.

Not So Much Concern Felt REGARDING
Possible Interference

It was stated at the Navy Department
this morning that they had had no dis
patches from Admiral Dewey relating to
the important events at the Philippines
described in the press cables. It is evident
however, that the officials do not now feel
the same concern relative to the attitude
of the German naval force at Manila as
they did when the admirars last dispatch
was received. 1t is not so stated, officially,
but there is good reason to believe that
either through Ambassador White at Berlin
or the representative Of the German gov
ernmeut here, the State Department has
received some assurances as to the atti-
tude of Germany toward the Philippines
that have, in a large measure, removed
the grave apprehension heretofore enter
tanned that Germany would offer obstacles
to the execution of our plans.
1t is not known just what the nature of
these assurances is, and 1t may be that
they are based upon some facts communi-
Gated by Admiral Dewey to the ex-
changes which have taken place between
himself and the German admiral in the
Philippines, for it is known that for po-
lite reasons the Navy Department with
held from publication large and import
ant section Of Dewey's last cablegram re-
ceived several days ago.
The reported negotiations between the
insurgent leader Aguina!do and the Span
ish captain general Augusti have not yet
been reported officially to our government
1t is, however, a matter Of congratulation
to the officials here that in all the relations
we have had so far with the insurgents
Admiral Dewey has carefully refraincd
frC m committing the United States in any
way and has never In the slightest degree
relaxed the extreme caution he adopted
originally as bis guiding principle in his
dealings with tine insurgents. Unsavory
sttries Of previous exhibitions of lack of
integrity en- the part Of the insurgent lead
ers had led the government here to adopt
a very wary attitude in all communications
with his people and the same rule of ac-
ton now governs his conduct 1t does not
follow from this that the government is
convinced that Aguinaldo is playing false,
and there is no doubt that the pro-Spanish
element in the Philippines and in Asia
wculd lose no opportunity to create that
impression with a view to causing a breach
between the United States military and
naval commanders and the Insurgents. But
the very suggestion of the adoption by the
insurgents of the course attributed to them
TENDS very strongly to retard the prepara-
tion OF plans by the administration to gov
ern the future of the Philippines,

LESSONS OF THE CAMPAIGN.
important Things Learned by Mill.
tary and Naval Experts


tary and Naval Experts
The military and naval experts saw that
several important lessons In ordnance and
fortifications are furnished by the cam
paign against Santiago 1t is pointed out
that the long contentious between the. rela-
tive merits of land fortificatfons and naval
SHIPS as means of coast defense have re-
ceiVed much light by recent operations
hen Admiral Sampson was chief of the
ordnance bureau of the Navy Department
he held that most effective means of de-
Tending coast was by means Of warships
rather than coast defenses. 1t is said,
however, that the Spanish defense of San
uago harbor has demonstrated that coast
defenses are even more effective than war
ships The batteries Of Morro Castle, Sa-
ccpa and the other, aided by the mining
and torpedoing of the harbor, was effective
in preventing the American feet from en-
tertng the harbor, and this, despite the
fact that the Spanish guns were in no
sense fertilization armament. 1t is said
by some of the experts that If Morro had
possessed the large modern fertilization
guns. such as those protecting New York
or Boston, it would have been able not only
to have defended Santiago, but to have
done serious damage to the attacking
fleet.

SANTIAGO HARBOR, July II, via Port
Antonio, July 1S.-Before us, lying among
the trees against the hills and spreading
her tiled roofs over it's top, is the captive
city of Santiago. She is very fair to look
upon.
From the harbor all is restful and un-
Warfke, the scene. with the cloud-capped
mountains beyond, suggesting tropical
Lake Lucerne. Two rather Romanesaue
towers rise from her cathedral. like arms

Of the governors palace is flag with
a blue field in the corner and stripes of
red and white shyly fiuttering, as If not
used to the Haunting business of con-
quest.
On the Moro Castle, whose walls were
much battered and whose guns are all
gone, except one, a little American flag
was raised at noon, but soon tumbled down.
AS we sailed in we saw a Cuban flag
on the western battery on the opposite
shore. Whfle we were looking at it a
horseman appeared, riding at full speed,
seized it, and carried 1t Off mysteriously.
on Cayo Smith there is no flag, and
the village Is deserted.
Estrella, the powerful battery is much
damaged.
We are using the opening made by Hob
son today through the pontoon of mines
1t reached across the channel. We enter
ed a1ter the Red Cross ship and found four
ocean steamers and q smart white Spanish
gunboat named the Alvarado in the far-
Dor. These are In possession Of prize crews
sent by Admiral Sampson.
