THE GULF ROAD.

A Chicago special OF July 9th
gives some of the benefits to the
section through which it traverses
of the Kansas City, Pittsburg &
Gulf railroad, which is now in the
hands of receiver, but which the
Gulf & Manitoba company, which
proposes to run a line through this
city, claims to be part of and with
which it agrees to connect by Jan.
1st, 1903. According to the special
it appears that the members of the
interstate commerce commission met
on that day with the executive
officers of the railroads west of
Chicago to discuss the condition of
freight rates in the west
The meeting was held behind
closed doors. Commissioner Cal
houn of Illinois was the only mem
Der of the commission who did not
attend the meeting. The meeting
was of more than ordinary interest
from the fact that traffic managers
of various roads argue that to the &C
ton of the Kansas City, Pittsburg &
Gulf road is due the decentralization
in rates in western territory. It is
asserted that the Gulf road has cut
rates from New York to Missouri
river points via the Gulf of Mexico
to lower point than those via the
direct lines from New York, and it
was argued that the Gulf road
should be brought to time for ignor-
ing the long and short haul clause
of the interstate commerce act for
maintaining higher rates from Gulf
ports to Texas points than to Mis-
souri, river points. Hope was ex-
pressed that the commission would
find some way to adjust the matter.
Former President Stillwell of the
Gulf road, in an interview, said
''The policy of the managers Of
the Gulf road has been a justifable
one and will not be changed. By
reason of our circuitous route, we
cannot compete with the direct all
rail lines at equal rates and there.
fore put our tariffs 10 cents below
that of our competitors in this traffic.
We have made rates and obtained
business independent of the comb.
nations that attempt to dictate the
policy of all lines.

''The Tagalos are a determined
and treacherous tribe and it is not
likely that our government can get
them all to lay down their arms for
some will form guerilla bands and
harrass and plumber among the
people until they are all wounded
or killed off.
''Vast improvements will be made
about Manila and Fort Cavite when
things resume their even tenor. At
present material is being hauled for
barracks at Caloocan, Camp Stolen
berg east to Manila, Melete, Malo-
los, San Fernando, Calumpit and
Balinag."

DAN IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Says the Islands Are the Place for
American Gold.

Dan. D. McRae, for long time
editor of the Morgan Messenger,
but during the last year or two
member of the Saltwater company
of the 18th Minnesota regiment,
which has been in the Philippines,
but which set sail for San Francis
co last Thursday, gives his more re-
cent observations of life in the
Philippines as follows:
''The Philippines Islands abound
with resources, but it will require
considerable capital to work them
successfully. It offers splendid
openings with money, for tobacco,
sugar, rice and fruit plantations,
up-to-date refneries and, factories,
and mining, numbering, banking,
commercial, professional men, etc.
Labor is cheap and any man with
an eye open to business could null
tiply his money in a few years.
This country is sorely in need Of
Americans with capital and bust
ness ability.
1.-The insurrection has effected all
branches of trade, more or less, but
at presents improving wonderfully.
The insurgents have got partly over
their thirst for fighting and if our
forces will not be checked by the
rainy season sudden ending may
be safely predicted. Many are re-
firing to their farms within the
American lines and tilling the soil
for another crop of corn and rice
while others are returning to Ma
Mia, Malabon, and the other towns,
taking up their former occupations.
Thousands who have participated
in the instruction are becoming
discouraged and disguised over the
hopelessness of their cause and re-
alize the good intentions of our gov
eminent, have decided to follow
peaceful pursuits and abide by
'sYour Uncle Samuel's" say. Can
creme is getting in among the wound
ed from lack of medicine and they
are dying like withered leaves.
Many times when the Americans
advanced on their trenches their Off
GERS were compelled to whip them
into line and still they would not
stand but retreat with the utmost
confusion. The capture Of arms and
ammunition has been exaggerated.
Considerable stores have dropped
into the hands Of our forces.

City Engineer Loweth arrived
here Monday and has since been en-
gagged in inspecting the water sup
ply tank and notwithstanding curb
lines on various streets.
Street Commissioner Birum, with
his corps of workers, has about
finished the work of placing cobble
stones alongside of the cement gut
tiers on the four business streets of
the city, and also of graveling the
streets on which the cutters have
been placed, and now, as a result OF
the cement walks, cobble stone re-
tainers and graveled streets, Red

politan appearance than any other
city in Southwestern Minnesota.
The youngest daughter of George
L. Evans was quite badly injured in
a peculiar manner last Friday. The
little one was playing at the foot OF
the stairs in the barn, while her
brother, Frank Evans, was upstairs
throwing hay down to the horse.
AS he finished the latter work he
let the fork slide down stairs, not
knowing that his sister was there.
The tines of the fork entered the
baby's breast to the bone, and she
commenced to cry. Frank rushed
down stairs, saw what had hap
pened, pulled the fork from his sis
ter's breast. took her into the house,
and then rushed for the doctor, who
said that the child was not danger
ously injured.

Mayor Leslie Sutherland sent special message
10 the Board Of Aldermen at the meeting or the
Common Council. IN which he urges competition
IN street lighting He states that in case the AL
dermen refuse to grant a franchise for street
lighting to a company which has already asked
for one he would recommend that the city start
the erection Of its lighting plant and compete
against the existing corporation now furnishing
light to the city. the contracts OF which expire
soon. The Mayor shows by statistics that out u
lO7 contracts in representative cities IN the Unlteo
states ninety-three cities have cheaper gas llgnt-
ing tnan Yonkers. The Mayor also favors the de-
velopment OF the city dock property; whlcn ne
