est ship IN the Great Lakes, was sunk
In st Mary's river, blocking traffic.

souri, Pacific freight train near Rose
station, Kan. Bessie, aged nine years,
was killed outright, and Ethel and
Clarence, younger children, were so
badly mangled that both will die.
Detailed reports of the accident sus-
tanned by the cruiser Newark recently
as she was entering the Golden Gate,
show that what might have been a Sc
rions accident was averted by the fact
that the ship was only under half
speed, and that, owing to the thought
fulness of her engineer, Commander
Morritz, a double force in the engine
room enabled the steam to be cut OF
promptly.

The opinion Of President Schurman
Of the Philippine commission that
China may ruin the manufacturing in
terests of the occident through her
ability to command unlimited supplies
of cheap labor will not deter any west
ern nation or western manufacturer
from introducing all the goods posi-
BILE into China and thereby furnishing
the incentive for this ruinous oriental
competition. The importance of the
cost Of labor in manufactures is often
overestimated. For some years the
United States, with a wage scale prob
ably the highest in the world, all
things considered. has been steadily
Increasing its exports OF rhanufs ctures.
Mechanical ingenuity, financia, power
and commercial genius count for more
than cheap labor. China's turn may
come a few hundred years hence. but
nobody now living is worrying about
that.
