more troops are needed for the exeeu- tion of the administration policy for the government of Cuba. It is probable that orders will shortly be issued for the discharge of many other regiments now in southern camps. Augusta, Ga, is regarded by officials as offering the best advantages and facilities for the proposed camp, and it is more than probable that it will be selected The other camps will be gradually aban- doned by the muster out of the troops or their transfer to the central camp yet to be established All the troops affected by this action are attached to the newly organized Second army corps, which is under the command of Maj. Gen. s. M. B. Young, now tenn porarily on duty in this city as a mem Der of the Eagan cOurt-martial. The headquarters of the second corps is at Augusta, and that fact will have con siderable influence in determining the location of the proposed camp.

STEEL TRADE IN GERMANY.

The rapid advance in the price of iron
and steel in Germany has been so great
within the past few months as to Sc
riously disturb business and to mate
rally increase the cost to consumers.
The demand is said to be so far in ex-
cess of the supply that many works
will be able to only half fill their orders
in iron and steel in the coming six
months. In fact in many instances it
has become necessary to limit the out
put, owing to the impossibility of OBJ
tanning the raw material. The result
will be that should this scarcity of iron
continue it will not be long before
thousands of laborers will be without
work. To avert this condition, which
seems imminent, it is hoped by the
Germany manufacturers that the Ger
man import duties on iron will be tenn
porarily suspended and a helper in
time of need found for the present de-
velopment of German industries by
participating in the enormous output
of iron from this country. 1t must be
taken into consideration, however, that
in England and more especially in this
country the consumption of iron is lust
now extraordinarily heavy. This scar
city of iron is sign of the continuous
overlooking of almost all iron indus
tries with orders.

GEN. WOOD TO BE GOVERNOR.

Robert Lincoln O'Brien, the versatile
and wide-awake Washington cores
pondent of the Boston Transcript, says
that Gen. Wood will be the first civil
governor of Cuba. In the Transcript
last night he said:
The prediction that General Wood
will succeed General Brooke as COVER
nor of Cuba, although secuted when
made in these columns few weeks ago
is now generally accepted in the army
circles here. The nature of the office,
only, is still in doubt That Wood will
become civil governor in time few ques-
ton, but it is probable that he will at
first be nominally military governor. 1t
was at first expected that the change
would be made about Jan. 1, and this
may yet come about, but the general
belief now is that Brooke will remain
in Havana until later in January.

VICTORY FOR PEOPLE.

Boston is to be congratulated on her
return to the republican fold. 1t is no
small advantage to be rid of the cor
rupt gang with which Mayor Quincy
was surrounded Political methods that
would arouse the jealousy of Dick
Croker and "Bathhouse" John have
long disgraced the metropolis of New
England.
Many grabs and steals have been
perpetrated in the past few years
which have gone by unnoticed. The
Boston press appears to have been re-
miss in its duties until the question of
the relaying of the tracks on fremont
street began to excite popular atten-
ton
That cleverly devised scheme of the
street railroad magnates was more
than Boston blood could endure If
there is one thing above all else in his
city in which the Boston man takes
pride 1t is in the Subway" No other
American city possesses anything like
it. He remembers with horror the old
time jam at the corner of fremont
and Boylston streets. The old con-
gestion of traffic now seems to him like
a nightmare which is past
When told that fremont street was
to be converted from a boulevard to a
congested thoroughfare, the citizens of.
Boston arose in their might. The press
awoke to its duty and did yeoman SER
vice in denouncing the measure. The
result was an almost solid republican
vote against the track grab. The

important factor in the result, but this

A TRIUMPH FOR SAUNDERS.

If there were no principle of party in
volved there would be no such excite
ment in the commor,,~ 4alth over the
Choice of a speaker. There are several
principles involved. First, the lobby
wants tc choose the speaker. 1t does not
want Charles r. Saunders. Second, no
man should be elected speaker of a
state legislature who is against the gov
eminent in time Of war. Myers is
against the gov1nment inasmuch as he

reasonable documents and unpatriotic
manifestoes to cripple the American
army in the Philippines. There is the
principle of honest government and of
patriotism. Mr.. Myers is not a dis
honest man, but he is unpatriotic. Mr..
Saunders is both patriotic and honest.

place Representative Munroe was the
leader of the minority in the street rail-
way committee and he drew the minor
ity report which Mr.. Saunders support
ed on the floor of the house. To their
efforts largely the city of Boston can
thank itself for the opportunity to vote
down the proposition to deface the
common and encroach on the streets
again. The Transcript says:
We must not corget Representative
Charles r. Saunders, to whom we owe
this referendum, who CALAMITY battled
for it in the House with only half doz-
en- of the fifty Boston members behind
him, being overthrown at last by the
Elevated railway forces by only two or
three votes. and then throwing himself
upon Governor Wolcott, who made as
much Of a stand against the tracks as is
to be measured in the submission of the
transit problem to the people a second
time after it had been once settled, or
supposed to be, for all time.
