Sundays news from the Philippines
brought home TO ais the fact that the
nation has a considerable war on its
hands. In number of troops actually
engaged the Philippine rebellion is in
deed more impressive than the Spanish
war. The Santiago campaign, which
practically began and ended the mill
tary part OF the Spanish war, was
fought with less than 10000 troops on
our side and there must be in the Phi
lIppines now nearly 10000 of our sol
dlers and more are on the way.

In the heat of summer the temperature
never rises above 50 degrees Fahrenheit
on the sea coast, and the nights are usu-
ally cool. Whatever unpleasantness per
tains to the climate is the outcome of the
excessive humidity of the atmosphere dur
ing the rainy season, and the clammy
dampness of clear dew-laden nights. I'm
questionably the rainy season is a trial
to the constitution, for the wet air, heated
by sudden sunbursts, is difficult 10 breathe,
and exposure to the chilly damp of night
is apt to bring on pernicious and malarial
fevers. However, with anything like
proper care of the person and a fair diet
of quinine the summer season may be
safely tided over.
In winter-or rather during the "dry sea-
son" of November, December January
and February-the upper limit of the mer-
curry is about 50 degrees on the coast, and
10 degrees less in the mountains, dropping
lowest in January. There is a greater
range in temperature between day and
night at this season than in summer, the
mercury sometimes falling during dark
ness TO 65 degrees on the coast, and 10
degrees lower in the highest attitudes.
Sxty-fve degrees means really cold
weather to the Porto Rican, and the
American who has lived on the island for
a few months does not disdain to envelop
his linen-clad person I'm light overcoat
The difference between the temperature
in open sunlight and dense shade is so
marked that it is actually dangerous to
seek shelter from the sun, when overhead
ed, in the shade of tree or jungle. Pneu-
monia is commonly produced in this way,
and many of the pulmonary complaints
arising in the island may be traced to in
judicious cooling off beneath outrageous
natural arbors A bit of superstition ex-
lists in the minds Of the untutored natives
to the effect that certain large trees which
form bowers of shade exhale poisonous,
noxious vapors, and that those who I'M
Willingly or foolishly rest beneath them

Americas, Ga, March 19.-Postofice In

1t is now generally believed here that the
petition of Americas merchants for "shoo-
fly" or accommodation trains on the Geor-

and that trains will be running between
Fitzgerald and this city within a few days.
Deputy Sheriff Z. L. Bell sustained a
severe loss a night or two since in the de-

Americas. Besides the three buildings, he
lost all of his corn, hay, oats, fodder, cot
ton seed, wagons and farm utensils, the
loss exceeding 81, 200. There was no in

large barn on the II. ]. Webb plantation
was also burned recently by hcehuldrles'
involving heavy loss.
Local fishermen are killing hundreds of

The FINANCIAL Outlook as Seen From

New York, March 1S-With some excep-
tons, Wall street has had another week
of comparative dizziness and irregularity
perhaps been less satisfactory to the bears
than 10 the bulls. So far as respects specu-
lative organization, excepting in a Few
specialties, the BUN side lacks some inn
portant elements of strength. 1t is for the
time being without spirited leaders. A
large number of that class, with their u.s.
ual sagacity, have some time since unload
ed; and the present holders of their stocks
are principally the more sanguine and less
experienced operators who are unwilling
to sell on a weakened market and too
readily yield to whatever symptoms may
seem to suggest some possibility of an i'm
provement in values.
There is little ground for expecting an
other sustained upward turn of prices I'M
iii there has been some downward reac-
ton; the logic of which is that the present
is q better time for realizing, than for
buying. At the same time. there is no very
apparent reason for expecting any imme-
date important drop. There are so many
encouraging factors in the general business
situation that, although those factors may
not justify buying under the existing spec
ulative situation, yet they may be ex-
pected to induce holders with good back
ing to cling to their stocks pertinaciously.
That sort of clinging amounts to a quite
important resistance to any declining ten
deney. and there is no saying how long
it may defer the fail in prices that on or
binary principles may be expected to oc-
eur before there can be any we'll sustain

THE OLD, OLD STORY.
Farmers, Looking for "A Small Cotton
Crop, Increase Their Acreage,


Halcyondale Ga. March 19.-Untf re-
Gently there was some grounds for indulg,
ing the hope that there would be a reduc-
ton in the cotton acreage in this section
Of Georgia, but recent developments I'M
questonably disprove this view The
planters are probably misled in their ideas.
Nearly every one is operating on the as
sumption that the crop will be reduced.
therefore, he will tax his resources and
make a big crop and come in for fne
profits on the expectance of boom prices
The fertilizer shipments are heavy and
the zest manifested by the farmers is sim
ply amazing. More aggressive attitude
could not be apparent should cotton rea-
scnably promise 10 cents a pound. There
certainly ought to be some agency to re.
strain this suicide. but il is doubtful IL
any pressure could be brought to bear to
change the situation.
