NEW INDUSTRY COMING.
A 5000, 900 Cement Plant Will
be Located East of Florence.

Some two months ago THE
TRIBUNE mentioned the fact that
recent tests made of Fremont
county limestone showed very fa-
vorable results for cement, and
this has finally developed into a
proposition that will be welcomed
by the people of Florence.
just south of the crossing of the
D.&R. G. and Santa Fe roads. below
bridge 3, is a ledge, the formation
of which is shale and limestone in
such proportions MS to be peculiar
ly fitted for the manufacture of
cement. Tests of this have shown
an article of larger per cent of
purity than the famous German
Dickerhoof cement.
Surrounding and including this
ledge the Geddes d Seerie Stone
company and J. H. James the
widely known Omaha Smelter
man have secured several hun
dred acres of land, and it is the
purpose of the company to erect a
plant that will produce several
hundred barrels of cement per day.
The plant will be located in the
south triangle formed by the cross
ing of the roads, so that spurs of
about equal length will be run in
from each road At the depth OF
ten feet an abundance of water is
to be had. and altogether it seems
that the conditions are perfect for
the proposition now under way
The construction of the plant
will cost in the neighb borhood of
/ S2O0.oOO, and will employ at least
fifty men.
And so another addition has
been made 10 Fremont county ; al
ready wonderfully developed and
apparently unlimited resources.
We have 1900 acres of agricul-
tural lands. 10000 acres of graz
ing land, 10000 acres of coal land
and 1000 acres of orchard lands,
on which are growing 10000 fruit
trees. To this must be added oil
fields on which are flowing sufi-
cient wells to produce over 1900
barrels Of refined oil daily.
So Fremont county must be rec
ognized as one Of the most impor-
tan, IN the state, and it is crafty
ing indeed. TO see new resources in
process of Development.

FLAG OVER EVERY ISLAND.
The Jurisdiction of the United States
to BE Extended Over the EN-.
tire Philippine Group.

Washington, Feb. 1s-The admins
tration has determined rapidly to ex-
tend the jurisdiction of the United
States over the whole of the Philip
pine group, acting on the theory that
delay in this case is dangerous, and that
anarchy and general paralysis of
such interests as the islands support
will be brought about through fail
ure promptly to replace the Spanish
sovereignty over the islands by that of
the United States.
This decision involves the necessity
of naval campaign, and this will be
instituted as soon as Admiral Dewey
receives the requirements in the
shape Of gunboats now on the way to
Manila.
It is understood that there will be
no attempt made at this time to dis
place any of the existing municipal
governments, except where they prove
refractory and offer resistance. In fact,
policy of Cancellation will be fol-
lowed at all points in the treatment of
the natives.

A LIVELY BATTLE.
Insurgents Attack an American Out.

Fifty Rebels Killed.

Manila, Feb. 1s.-A considerable
force of insurgents attacked the Amer
lean outposts near the Manila water
works Friday, where were posted COM
panies C and G of the First Nebraska
regiment. The Filipinos met with a
warm reception from the Nebraska
men, who were soon reinforced, where
upon the Americans charged on the in
surgent position, carried it and put the
enemy to fight. The encounter was a
hot one while it lasted. Fifty dead
bodies of insurgents, including one Of
ficer, were found in the Jungle after
the fighting was over. Several pris-
oners were captured. The rest of the
insurgents were driven some distance
toward Caloocan. No deaths occurred
on the side of the Americans, but Capt
Hollingworth, Lieut.. Weldon and six
privates were severely wounded.

THE OPEN DOOR POLICY.
Lord Beresford Addresses. CONNER.
cial Club OF Chicago o. Pro-
posed Oraental Compact.

Chicago, Feb. 2o.-standing before
the bright red flag of the merchant ma
rine of Great Britain and the folds of
the American stars and stripes, Lord
Charles Beresford, ambassador of the
English chamber of commerce to
China, outlined Saturday night at the
Auditorium before the Chicago Com
mercial club his trade plans for the
orient. The Briton's policy was not for
a grabbing Of territory for the enrich
ment of England and America at the
expense of China and rival nations. but
the maintaining of the open door by
the nations best fitted to keep that door
open-England, America, Germany and
Japan. It was not a policy of selfish
exclusion that Lord Charles advocated,
but the policy of equal advantages to
all nations, in the belief that the great
bulk of trade would be benefited by the
prosperity of each nation.

Ing speculative combinations which tend

stantial enlargement of business due to

products about to be controlled or adj

heavy IN wheat and corn that the advance

1t is remembered that the exports Of corn
are almost as large as the largest ever

the wound became inf1amed. and, as it
continued to grow worse rather than
better, he came from his home in the

ment. Every effort was made to save
the thumb, but it finally had to be am
putated.

A TRAVELLER, recently returned from

some strange things in the islands.
.'There is fruit" says he. 1.-THE odor
of which is SO extremely offensive, that
the average person who smells it can
not be persuaded to taste it. The
flavor, however, is most delicious.
Another strange feature of the country
is flower that opens its petals at noon
each day, remaining open but five min
utes, then closing tightly, and remain
ing shut until noon the next day.
