1t is an equally indisputable fact that
during that period the Filipino govern
ment constantly and publicly, so that no.
body could plead ignorance of 1t or mis-
understand 1t, informed the world that
their object was the achievement of ma
tfonal independence, and that they be-
lieved the Americans had come in good
faith to help them accomplish that end
as in the case of Cuba. 1t was weeks
after various proclamations and other
public utterances of Aguinaldo TO that
effect, that the correspondence between
him and Gen. Anderson, which l have
quoted. took place, and that the useful
services of the Filipinos as our practical
allies were accepted. 1t is, further an
indisputable fact that during this period
our government did not inform the Fill
pinos that their fond expectations as to
our recognition Of their independence were
mistaken. Our secretary of staIe did,
indeed, on June 16. write to Mr.. Pratt
our consul general at Singapore, that our
government knew the Philippine iuSur-
gents,not indeed as patriots struggling for
liberty. and. who like the Cubans. are

and rebellious subjects of Spain.'' who. if

of the war. would have to yield us due

any promises to the Filipinos as to the
future. But the Filipinos themselves were
not so informed They were left to be
with the American forces. they were
fighting for their own Independence
1t is said that Aguinaldo's government
was in operation among only part of
the people of the islands. This is true
But 1t is also certain that it was recor-
nized and supported by an immeasurably
larger part of the people than Spanish
sovereignty, which had practically ceased
to exist, and than American rule. which
was confined to a harbor and a CITY. and
which was carried on by the exercise of
military force under what was srbstanti-
ally martial law over people that con-
Stftuted about one-twentieth of the whole
population of the islands

important to them that they raised a fund

larger than all the campaign funds used

Prayed to Recover Lost Cash.

NoRrnpoRr, L l., August S.-Jas.
Brewster, q clerk in the store of Stc-
phen Norris, found on Saturday a
small package lying on the floor of the
store. When he examined it he found
that it contained $105. On Sunday
afternoon Mrs. James Leonard, Of
Eastport, called upon him and said
she had lost s105 and was sure that
it had been lost in Mr.. Morris store.
She described the money that Mr..
Brewster had found and identified it.
Mrs. Leonard said that when she
discovered her loss on Sunday she at
once went to her room and prayed that
it might be restored to her. She said
she knew that she had visited but
three stores, and SO she wrote the
names of the stores on three pieces of
paper and after praying she picked
out one of the slips Of paper with her
eyes closed. The name Of Mr.. Morris
store was the one she found in her
hand when she opened her eyes, and
then she said she knew where she had
lost the money.

FIRE RECORD.
Pomeroy Badly scorched.

SIOUX CITY, Ia, May 15.-Special Tele-
gram -Rsports have reached Sioux City
that a fire Sunday destroyed a great amount
of property in the fated town of Pomeroy,
Ia. Some reports are to the effect that the
loss is nearly $3S, 900, but it is thought this
must be exaggerated. The losers in the fire
are F. B.. Hillman, G. w. Smith, George
Alcott and l. c.. Batson. Recently the town
had a bad fire and all fire insurance policies
were Cancelled by foreign companies but af-
terward some state companies wrote a few.
The citizens of the town are of the opinion
that the fires are being set by some promi-
nent citizen who has become demented by
brooding over the cyclone which devastated
the town several years ago and caused great
loss of life. Every effort Is being made to
stop the incendiarism, and citizens are said
to be patrolling the town. The town has
been through a series or disasters in late
years, including even a gang of gold-brick
swindlers.

SETTLING DUST WITH OIL.
Progress of Experiments on n Rail-
rond in


Track walkers, dust, weeds and the tray
cling public will be concerned in an expert
ment which the management of the Boston
& Maine is about to try. 1t was first at
tempted on the West Jersey railroad and
last year was given a trial by the Boston
& Albany, the excellence of whose roadbed
is remarked by travellers. This experiment,
reports the Boston Transcript, is to sprinkle
the roadbed with oil. Two cars are now
being fitted for the work at the Boston &
Maine shops in Concord, n. H., and about
June / selected sections Of track upon the
three divisions of the road, beginning
with the western, will be treated. They will
be about twenty-five miles each, probably
extending out from Boston.
The oil will be carried in tanks upon the
ordinary platform cars and will be piped
to the sprinkler, which in its operation VIII
not be unlike the water sprinkler used by
the street railways. Directly over the road
bed is a fixed perforated pipe, through which
the oil will flow, and at each side is a
swinging pipe-arm, three or four feet long,
through which the liquid, which is thicker
than water and thinner than molasses, Will
drip to the side of the tracks. At the bot
tom of the sprinkler, in the center. is a
platform, upon which two or three men will
stand to operate the side-pipes and the oil
crew will include also other men, whose
work will be above and upon the other
cars. The fluid used is what is known as
"roadbed OIL and is a petroleum product.
The tanks will hold about 5000 gallons
each and it Is estimated that to sprinkle
efficiently will require about $500 gallons
to the mile and will consume about three
hours to the mile.
Sprinkling with oil is expected to bring
three advantages over present conditions.
It will effectually lay the dust, 1t will Kill
weeds wherever the oil touches them and
It will prove such an inconvenience to
track walkers that the management will not
be surprised to find its road practically
freed of them. 1t has been noticed upon
other roads that in places where hundreds
we're wont to walk the tracks before the
oil was used, every one avoided the road
bed afterward. The oil is regarded as fatal
to the life of bicycle tires, but the road
will protect the rights of wheelmen and
others who cross the tracks at proper places
by emitting to sprinkle the oil at crossings
1t is estimated that it will take three
! sprinklings, one each year, to put the road
bed in frst-rate condition and then it Is
thought that it will not be necessary to
sprinkle again for perhaps seven or eight
wears. After three years the oil will per-
colate to a depth which will kill all weeds
and lay the dust beyond the possibility OF
its operations this summer as only an ex-
pertinent, however, which 1t Will not con-
tinue unless the results warrant.
