the result. said his sympathses were with
the other side. The avage condition of
the people. the bad sanitary condition of
the streets, ard the distance they were
from this country were reasons given for
not occupying the islands.
On the other hand, it was stated that
this country chose the lesser of two evils
in attempting to govern the Philippines.
This country was forced to look after
these Islands since the conquest of Manila

to ruin. Many other arguments were
given on both sides.

McDermott,s Opening Shot.

Allan L. McDermott called the Republic
can bluff in great style yesterday. Ever
since Hudson turned up its splendid Dem
ocratic majority. last November, the car
rion crows and buzzards of the Republic
can press have been cawing and croaking
over it. They have filed the wind with
hints and innuendoes and with general
statements as vicious as they We're vague
and as unsupported as they were I'M
s~chupulous. BENJAMIN Murphy, the Re
publican Chief of Police, said they were
lies. sam Dickinson and f. W. Woolley
said they were nonsense, but, all the
same, the New York Tribune the
state Gazette the Elizabeth Herald
and all the other hired sheets kept UP
- course of inferential Islander.
Now Mr.. McDermott nails them to the
cross, He demanded of the Republican
majority in the Senate that it investigate
the election. He told them that, if they
refused to take the necessary steps, he
would make the motion himself. The
Republican Senators were seized with
panic. They did not van to investigate
worth a cent. They would not investigate
the Hudson election for any amount of
money They know it is straight. They
know thu the investigation, if made,
must be a Democratic triumph, that it
win muzzle the party press and deprive
the G. g. P. spenbinders of their loudest
thunder for years to come.
But what are the Senators going to do
If Mr.. McDermott presses his point? To
vote against holding an investigation will
be as bad as to hold one, or worse, for it
will pillory the G. o. P. newspapers as
cowardIy and conscious slanderers. Mr..
McDermott has his adversaries in a very
sad p-redicament. The seats of the Re
publican Senators must be very uncom-

BLAST FURNACE GASES.
They Are Now Used by American
Furnace Owners to Operate
Gas Engines.

The practice of utilizing the gases of
blast furnaces, recently initiated in Eu-
rope, is already engaging the attention
of American furnace owners. When
iron is being purified it is heated with
coal or coke, in huge furnace. Part
of the constituents of the fuel combine
with the oxygen of the ore, and thus re-
duce the oxide. Among the products
which escape from the chimney in large
quantities is a combustible gas. This
gas, however, is of poor quality, being
largely charged with dust, which has
hitherto told against its use for fuel in
coke ovens. To get rid of this dust vari-
GUS means have been employed. Some
establishments which use the blast
furnace gas resort to apparatus com
monty employed in producer gas works
such as coke scrubbers," and cleaning
boxes filed with breeze" Other man
ufacturers add to these devices a water
spraying attachment. Prof. Meyer now
claims that the gas can be used for
power without any publication what
ever, and he mentions an instance in
which $50 horsepower gas engine has
been kept going for over six months
without any means for purifying the
gas, or the withdrawal of piston or
valves for cleaning. 1t has always been
feared that it would be hard to ignite
blast furnace gas in an engine, because
it has been impracticable to burn it nm
der steam boiler. But the compress
sion OF the gas gets rid of many difficult
tics. When it is compressed in the cyl
inder of gas engine just before the OK
plosion, il ignites readily. 1t is, in feet,
stated that the compression of blast
furnace gas can be carried further than
that OF ordinary producer gas without
danger of premature explosion.-St.
Louis GlobeDemocrat.

NOTHING SLOW ABOUT HIM.
lie Was Looking for Something to
Eat and Managed to Get 1t
Right Away.

A knight of the grip for well-known
dry goods firm tells very amusing in
cident. He took one of his lady friends
for sail on the boat on the Fourth of
July. When the boat arrived at Peaks
island the majority of the passengers
made rush for one of the hotels, with
view Of getting fed as quickly as pos
sible.
The knight took his time, but on ar
irving at the hotel found the dining
room pretty well filled. He managed,
however, to get place for his compan-
ion and himielf. lie hailed the walters,
but got the same response each time:
100 busy now; you'll have to wait"
The knight never waits for anything
except trouble.
He promptly asked his friend for her
order, and, knowing his own, he saun-
tered into the kitchen, dropped quar-
ter in the hand of the cook and re-
turned to the lining-room with tray
filled with edibles. The guests looked
at the man in blank establishment. He
certainly looked striking with a blue
serge suit, pink shirt and white tie,
hustling down the dining hall with a
tray of dishes.
This was not all He cleaned off the
table and returned to the kitchen for
dessert and, casting look of contempt
on the dumfounded employees, paid his
bill and walked out.--Portland (Me.)
