In the Current of Destiny.

We must. it seems, give up the con-
soling but inaccurate thought that the
surrender of Manila carried with il
the capitulation of all the Philippines.
The official terms of surrender, as re-
ported by General Merritt, limit the area
of capitulation to "city and suburbs" ,"
and while in Chicago and a few other
places the word suburbs" is sometimes
stretched to include several fair-sized
counties, we can hardly hope to make
it cover in this instance an archipelago
in dimensions almost equal to Great
Britain.
Yet, in a material sense, it does not
greatly matter. If our duty shall re-
quire us to take over the whole archi-
pelago as the easiest disposition of a
troublesome dilemma we will be in a
position to do so quite regardless of
the opinions of Spain. AS the Phila-
delphia Press very pertinently observes:
'Whatever it was best to take before
the assault on Manila it is best to
interests and needs of the United
States, and not the transient enthus-
iasm of victory, which must deter
mine the act and policy of a nation"
1t is not, in any event. the land but
the principle that enters as the control
ling factor in our deliberations re-
specting the future of the Philippines.
Those who will take the trouble to
read elsewhere on this page Judge
Grosscup's forecast of the commercial
future of modernized China will per-
ceive that in the settlement of the
question opened by the victories of
Dewey considerations enter vastly
overshadowing in their pregnant sig
nifcance either the claims of Spain or
those of the few millions of Malays,
Negritos and other races making up
the complex population of the Philip
pines. Compared with the magnitude
of these immense factors that are to
determine the whole trend of Oriental
progress in civilization the points in
volved in the terms of Manila's sur
render become, we may say, infnitesi-
NAL The man who reads this forecast
with open mind and then reflects upon
the singularly providential chain of un-
expected events which has carried this
nation almost unconsciously into this
new sphere of opportunity and respon-
sibility, must, we imgaine, sense the
irresistible influences Of destiny which
are bound 10 consummate their pur-
poses, say or do what we may

Steel Rail Prospects.

The formation of another steel rail
trust is reported but the announce
ment, although prophetic, is believed to
be premature. A harmonization of in
terests in this industry is, however,
inevitable sooner or later, for the same
reasons that have made it necessary
in the coal trade; and those who assail
it as prejudicial to the best interests
of the community merely display ignor-
ance of prevalent industrial condi-
tions.
The march of developments in the
steel rail industry has been so rapid
that only by the utmost economy in
production and distribution can the
necessarily gigantic investments be
rewarded with profits. BY careful hus-
banding of the business in sight it is
possible at prevalent prices for the
better situated mills barely to sus-
tain themselves, but with competition
constantly cutting these prices lower
all operations in rail-making must soon
be carried on at a loss. Only those
mills can stand such loss which, by
reason of other interests, are relieved
from dependence upon the rail market.
Carnegie, for instance, can lose money
in all of his steel works and yet be
upheld by his coke interests; but there
is only one Carnegie, and even he
should have no joy in a situation which
compels him to sell for, say SIS ton
rails that cost him not less than S17
or $1S. A condition like that. made
permanent. spells certain ruin.
The number of rail mills now in eX-
istence is ample not only for present
but for probable future needs. 1t is
unlikely that any more will be built: :
certainly no more should be built. BY
harmonious agreement among the cX-
listing mills current production can be
equitably apportioned, prices put on
the upward instead of the downward
scale and money now wasted in futile
competition be applied to the yielding
of moderate profits. The mill which
earns instead of loses money is the mill
most likely to pay good wages.
Such are the arguments and Condi-
tions that make steadily for another
steel rail pool" If new business is
to come from new territories acquired
in war there is additional incentive to
prevent the decentralization and wastes
of unchecked competition. Rhetoric
and prejudice will not prevail against
these practical considerations.

The estimate of Dewey in Saturdays
Tribune, challenged elsewhere by an
esteemed correspondent, was not meant
to belittle the work of either Farragut
or Porter, yet it was made with delib-
Grafton. Dewey is to be rated as much
by the influence of his achievement
upon the worlds future as by the diff
ficuty of the achievement itself. The
generalship and diplomacy exhibited by
him have bequeathed to his country
men a new sphere of influence i'm
measurably more extended and pro-
phetic of larger and better results for
the worlds civilization than have ac-
crued from any prior sea fight of which
history makes record. A single false
step by him would have spoiled all.
But he made no false step. Hence we
consider that his proper rank is in the
first place among our naval heroes.
