Railroad Building.

There has been a vast deal of railroad
building this year, making it one of
great Importance in the history of rail-
roading. Few new trunk lines have
been b. At and very few new corpora
tions Ave been formed. The work has
consisted largely in the building Of
feeders, and the connecting up of odds
and ends of lines, but the most note.
worthy railroad movement of the times
is found not in these extensions but in
the vast amounts being expended to
improve the existing mileage. Ten
years ago if a railroad could only get
some place. it was considered enough.
No grade was too great if an engine
could climb it, no curve too sharp If the
train would stay on the track. Rail-
road men have learned the economy of
a good road bed. The capacity of an
is limited to the number of cars
it will pull over the steepest grade on
the division. The recent railroad i'm.

saved but to increase the hauling

capacity. 1t is not how fast, but how
much? An engine that can pull Is
loads up a 20 foot grade car pull 80
loads up a So foot grade and the cost of
transportation is reduced one half.
The Northwestern will spend as much
money Strengthening the track and re-
ducing the grade over the Des Moines
river near Boone, as the whole con-
struction and right of way of the Boyer
Valley cost. The Burlington will
spend S2,OO0,0 600 this year between Mt.
Pleasant and Fairfield. They are MAX
ing their wide double track nearly as
level as a parlor floor. The vast i'm
provements are of even more import
ance to the farmer than are the many
extensions being built. 1t means that
in time freight rates can be reduced one
half and the profit to the company be
just as large as at present.
By the way it is not every man who
could put 81, OOO, 900 into a small piece
of roadway on the expectation that it
would pay out some time. Concentra-
ton of wealth makes large enterprises
possible.

Root and Corbin INSPECT the Two New
Regiments of Volunteer Infantry.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2s.-Secretary
Root and Adjutant General Corbin paid
a flying visit to the army camp at Camp
Meade, Pa. yesterday. Their object
was to inspect the two new regiments
Of volunteer infantry, the Twenty-sev-
enth and Twenty-eighth, which have
just been recruited and are now rendez-
voused at that camp. preparatory to
their departure for the Philippines.
Both the secretary and the adjutant
general are enthusiastic over the fine
appearance of the men of the regiments.
The Twenty-seventh regiment, under
command Of Major Bell, is now under
orders to proceed to San Francisco and
probably will leave Camp Meade on the
train which is bringing home from that
city the Pennsylvania organization
which has been doing duty in the Phil
ippines.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 2s.-As the outcome

concern of Jardine, Matheson 8 Co.,

Hurst, the British consul, sent work.
men to fence in the tract.
After the work was begun a dozen
Cossacks from the Russian consulate
appeared on the scene and forcibly
elected the workmen.
The captain of the British gunboat
Woodlark, specially designed for river
service, after consulting with MI. Hurst,
landed a party of bluejackets and
moved the Woodlark within firing dis
tance Of the Russian consulate.
For a time a fight seemed imminent,
but nothing further occurred. The
bluejackets are now guarding the prop
erty.
The British gunboat Esk has been
dispatched to Hankow from this port.
Great Britain is evidently determined
to uphold British rights.

NATIVE TRBACHERY.
Filipino Mayors Use Their Po-
sition to Aid Insurgents.
FOUND TO BE ENTHUSIASTICALLY.

Two New Municipal Governments Col
lapse and Oficials Are in Jail Because
of Their Undergraduates Precautions
In Manila.
MANILA, Aug. 22.-(Via Hong Kong,
Aug. 28.)-Recent events have proved
somewhat discouraging to officials who
r trying to accompany war with a
policy of Cancellation. Two new munich
pal governments have collapsed through
the treachery of the mayors. Yesterday
the mayor Of San Pedro Macati, who
was elected by the people under the di-
rection of Professor Dean Worcester of
the United States commission, was
brought to Manila and lodged in Jail.
The United States officers at San Pedro
Macati found that he was using his
Office as a recruiting station for the
Filipino army.
The mayor of Baliuag was also ar
rested and confined in the same prison.
The Americans caught him passing be-
tween the lines of the two armies with
discriminating documents, which the
authorities secured. Another promi-
nent native mayor is under surveillance.
When the result Of the election at
linus, which General Lawton and Pro-
fessor Worcester engineered, was an
nounced, the Americans inquired as to
the whereabouts Of the peoples choice
and were Informed that he wasin prison
at Bilibid, where the authorities had
placed him on suspicion Of being a
lutionist. He was released and in

give color to the assertions Of foreign
residents acquainted with the native
character, who insist that q great ma
jority of the natives sympathize with
the insurgents and elect officials whom
they know to be revolutionists.
For two weeks Manila has been po-
Iced at night with unusual vigilance.
Apparently the authorities are expect
ing trouble.
The trend of affairs tends to make the
policy Of leniency unpopular among the
Americans. When they abandoned
Morong they burned the whole town.
Colonel Smith Of the Twelfth infan-
try, who is in command at Angeles, is
skeptical regarding Filipino friendli-
ness. Instead Of allowing the natives
to return to the town, as heretofore, he
has ordered his troops to shoot all men
trying tx pass the lines and to turn
back the women and children.
MANILA, Aug. 28.-The Politische
Corresponding says that a deputation Of
American merchants from Manila has
gone to Washington to promote ascbeme
for ceding the Philippines to Great

coed the expenditures by the very
handsome sum of $1,48O.21. This

House-Eclair Must Answer For Pub
fishing "Canaille de D."
RENNEs, Aug. 28.-The government
has decided to prosecute the Eclair for
the publication of the "Canaille de
D." document, one Of the four docu-
ments secretly communicated to the
Dreyfus court-martial of 1894 and which
has been shown not to refer to Captain
Dreyfus at all. But the object of the
government is.to discover who commu-
nicated it to the Eclair. The assump-
ton is that the communication was
made by Colonel Du Patty de Clam or
possibly by General Gonse.
1t is rumored that the government
has also decided to arrest General Mer-
cier, but the rumor is not confirmed.
A report was in circulation that Gen
eral Mercier had fled to the island of
Jersey, but this story proved to be with
out foundation. The gendarmes are
still posted outside the residence of Cen
eral st. Germain, with whom General
Mercier has been staying during the
trial. Their presence indicated that he
was still there.
A high political parsonage who wishes
his name withheld, says that he has
just talked over the telephone with the
private secretary of M. Waldeck-Rous-
seau, the premier Of France. He learns
that the cabinet is now considering
whether General Mercier must not be
Immediately placed under arrest, in
consequence of the revelations by Cap
tain Freystaetter at Saturday session
of the court-martial. M. Waldeck-
Rousseau says the only question dis
cussed by the ministers was the expe-
diency Of arresting Mercer before the
end of the trial and thus taking the risk
Of provoking a great public c%onvulsion.

KRUGER IS WEAKENING
Burghers May Not Ratify His
Far-Reaching Concessions.
ULT1MATUM MAY BE NECESSARY.

Fears Expressed in London That War
Will Not BE Acknowledgements Of Ma
tai Refuses to Allow Transit of Empty
Cartridge Cases For the Transvaal.
LONDON, Aug. 28.-There is little
fresh news from South Africa, but it is
announced that the governor of Natal
has refused to allow the transit of empty
cartridge cases intended for the Trans-
vaal.
The Pretoria correspondent Of the
Daily Chronicle declares that President
Kruger's concessions are SO far-reaching
that it is doubtful whether the burghers
will ratify them. He thinks it more
likely that they will demand Mr.. Kru-
gers resignation and the appointment
of a younger man, probably Schalk w.
Burger, a nonofficial member OF the
executive council Of the T%ransvaal.
Allthe morning papers comment upon
the seriousness of the situation as re-
vealed on Saturday at Birmingham by
the speech Of Joseph Chamberlain, SEQ
rotary of state for the colonies. The
Daily Telegraph calls the speech IAN
informal ultimatum.'' The Standard
says it marks the most critical stage yet
reached. The Times says: ssSuch a
delicate situation cannot be ~protracted.
We believe that within the last few
days final arrangements for the general
direction of the expedition which will
be necessary in the event of a rupture
have been completed at the war Office.
1t is scarcely necessary to point out the
extreme danger of allowing entrance
into South Africa of arms which would
be likely to fall into the hands of the
black population, exceeding the white

 Crime Courts.

The jury in the case of Walter s. Sharp the white man charged with a terrible crime, after remaining out all night, yes terday morning returned a verdict of guilty, fixing tho punishment at twenty five years imprisonment in the penitentiary.
 An appeal will probably be taken.

 Richard Morris, robbery; ten years.
 John Tyson, robbery; ten years.
 Charles Grey, rape; fifteen years.
 Alonzo Williams. murder; life
