The following pen picture OF
the Filiplnos is taken from re-
port just received by the Depart

A. P. Hayne, California Heavy
Artillery, on agriculture in the
Philippines: "The native Fill
pit1o is what might be expected
from his enervating tropical envi-
ronment and his diet of rice, fruit
and fish. He is unable to do any
large amount of work, and cares
to do less. He is lndolent and
given to gambling. All these
vices have to be taken into ac-
couilt in any undertaking where
labor is employed. To secure
workmen of any sort, an agent
has to be sent into the country
with a large amount of cash to
make contracts with the work
men, practically paying them a
year III advance for their work,
and in addition to this, as they
never haye any money, their EN-
ployer is expected to provide for
all their family necessities, such
as funerals, baptisms, marriages
and feast days, all Of which are
expensive performances. Even
when all of this is done the agent
is likely to induce the men that
he has Employed and outftted to
desert his principal and go to
work for the owner of the next
plantation. AS the natives haye
nothing upon which to levy, legal
redress is out of the question.
Those who do work are in debt to
their employer from year to year,
and when their debt increases be-
yond their liking they simply de-
camp to fresh fields and repudiate
all obligations.

Indications of Ultimate Consultations
 With the Steam Roads.
 A New Haven dispatch to the New York Evening Post says: It is now ru- mored that the state trolley comhina- tion, in addition to controlling the troll ley, gas and electric lighting plants which it can secure may end in a con- solidation with the steam roads. Many of the most prominent railroad men in the state are interested in both the new trust and the old and established rail roads. Among the "straws in the cur rent is the fact that there has been remarkable cessation of ill-feeling be- tween the steam and the electric road men in the legislature this year In at least one instance three applicants for single trolley line between this city and Derby withdrew their petitions at the mere suggestion of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company.
