Freight Cars by the Thousands

Last year the contracting car-build-
Ing companies did the greatest busi-
ness that thew have done since 1890.
The total number Of freight cars built
during the last calendar year was 39,-
500, the passenger cars were 600, and
the street railroad cars 4,65O, or a total
of 1O5,15S In 1890, the best year so
far as our records show, the output
was 100000 freight cars, but in 1891
and 1892 nearly 100000 were built
each year. The increase of 1898 over
1897 is quite wonderful. In that year
our reports are from thirty contractors
land five estimated) showed 43,5SS
freight cars. This year our reports
are from twenty-eight companies, and
from twcnty-six others we have made
estimates carefully checked. These
are mostly very small concerns. In
1896 the freight cars built outside OF
the railroad shops amounted TO 51,1S9
in 1895 to S,1OO, and in 1894 they ag
gregatcd only $4,000. Among the cars
reported this year we find 1853 bull
for export; of these, $50 were strec'
cars. In making this summing up OF
car building last year we found 2,10l

pounds to the square foot; four inches

five inches artillery. In Central Park

"The Oregon arrived at Hilo, Feb

9Th The Iris and Scandia arrived on

Mr.. Gffen ID dispatch agent of the
Department. The cablegram from Ad-
miral Dewey asking for the Oregon was
received with surprise by the officials
here. No one knew, or at least would
admit that he knew, the nature Of the
political reasons why the admiral de-
mands the immediate presence to tho
peerless battleshlp.
The cablegram was taken before the
cabinet and fully discussed. The ad-
miral, it is said, possibly feels that the
moral effect Of the presence of the big
ship on tho insurgents them selves, and
particularly upon the larger element
among the Filipinos that is believed to
be restrained with difficulty from join
ing fortunes with Auginaldo, with
whom their sympathies lie. would be
good. But there is an underlying
doubt whether or not the admiral may
not be keenly sighting o gathering
cloud in the East and is looking to the
prevention Of auy possible Intervention
| or interference by European powers il
the struggle now in progress in the
neighborhood of Manila. tits believed
that in the big fires much property o
| foreign residents and business concerns
was destroyed. That these flames were
| caused by the insurgents cannot be de
| MED, and it may be that some of thu
| foreign naval commanders in the Eas
are disposed to seize upon the protex
that their interests demand protection
| which we cannot afford them, to make
a landing, or do something obnoxious
to the United States and likely to en-
courage the insurgents.
| The cabinet gave some attention t.
| Admiral Dewey's message about send
ing the Oregon at once to Manila. Tn,
Department reached the conclusion
| That too much importance should no
be attached to it; that Dewey want
the big ship to influence the Filipino
through fear. Secretary Long whel
asked for an explanation of the refer
ence to politician reasons in the dis
patch said 81 am sure that it has T.
international significance. You ma
state that positively. Probably he want
fine ship there as the American com
missioners are about due and it vii
