cipal woods though there are many other
varieties Of more valuable hardwoods found
in considerable quantities. The island as a
whole is heavily timbered, especially IN the
northern part. There are Also some min
eral springs, some valuable clay deposits,
and, It is claimed, some excellent marble.
The mineral springs flow warm water and
are impregnated with ironS and magnesia.
The waters from these springs have n great
reputation in Cuba, and many people have
gone to the Isle of Pines from Havana in
search of health.
Mr.. Rathbone's Report.
The director general of posts in Cuba, E.
G. Rathbone, recently made q trip to the
Isle of Pines to look into the mail facilities
He found that one mail a week had been
sent to the island from Batabano. He has
now arranged SO that the island receives
two mails week, and there are post Of
fees at Nueva Corona and at Santa Fe.
though there Is very little mail goes TO the
island all put together. In speaking of hts
trip he said:
Il found the island fiat near the coast.
though I did not go about much, as I was
looking it over merely from a postal stand
point. There seemed to be an abundance
of timber, and / learned that on the south
coast there is an abundance Of valuable
hardwoods. There are a few roads on the
island, but 1t is very thinly settled, though
there is quite good deal Of land cult
waited The country appears quite fertile,
and I believe in time it will support quite
a population j. D. WHELPLEY.

EXHIBITION Of HOLLAND
Program for the Submarine Test Success
fully Carried Out.
Ran Submerged for Ten Minutes, The Il
Rose, Discharged Torpedo and
Disappeared Again.

The program Of the exhibition of the sub
marine torpedo boat Holland which was
given yesterday on the Potomac river in
the presence of a distinguished party, in
Guiding the assistant secretary of the navy,
Mr.. Allen; Admiral Dewey, a number of
other naval officers and many senators and
representatives, was carried out in every
respect successfully. Lieut. Caldwell, Ad-
mtral Deweys secretary, was aboard the
Holland during the trip and will make a
report to the admiral upon the manner in
which the boat was managed. Neither Ad-
miral Dewey nor any of the naval officers
would talk after the exhibition, further
than to say that the Holland had evidently
carried out the program successfully.
The representatives of the Holland COM
pany were much pleased, and said the boat
had never given a more satisfactory ac-
count of herself.
Successful Run Submerged.
The maneuvers were concluded at point
off Mount Vernon. When they began the
Holland was sent below the surface until
only the flags which hung from the 1ndca-
ton STATS on her bow and stern We're visi-
Bile above the water She pursued a
straight course submerged for ten minutes
being followed by the accompanying boats
carrying the SPECTATORS, which were the
Sylph, the Presidents yacht; the Navy De-
partment tug Tecumseh and the yacht Jo-
sephine. After running under water about
a mile the Holland rushed to the surface,
discharged a service Whitehead torpedo
from her gun. and sinking again, turned un-
der water, and. after running back few
hundred yards, reappeared on the surface.
The boat afterWard made five quick pGf-
poise- like dives to show the-ease and rapid
ny with which she can be managed. Mem
bers of the congressional party said, after
the return to Washington. that they re-
garded the exhibition a success.Sso far as
this could be determined without being on
board the boat.
Other exhibitions will be given thereafter,
to one of which the attaches of foreign le-
cations here will be invited.

DISCUSSING A POLICY,
The Philippines Under Consideration
by the House of Representatives.

by the House of Representatives.
In the House yesterday afternoon Mr..
Cowherd of Missouri said in his speech on
the Philippine policy of this government
that in every treaty of annexation made
under democratic administration there was
a clause which provided that every in
habitant of the territory annexed should
become an American citizen. The treaty of
Paris was the only one acquiring territory
in Which 1t was left to Congress to decide
the political status of the inhabitants
Mr.. Chairman" concluded Mr.. Cowherd.
there was a time when we boosted not of
the money we could make, not that yonder
flag carried trade in its wake, but that 1t
carried liberty. Today it's proud boast is
that trade follows the flag. The other day,
when Gen. French rode into Kimberley to
the relief Of that beleaguerd city, the news
papers tell US the citizens held reception
for the English officers, and Cecil Rhodes,
the very incarnation of the land lust, the
land grabbing spirit of the age the man
who might also have said as was said the
other day in the other end of the Capitol,
These are all the islands left to grab :" -
Gecil rhodes, in response to a toast, said
that the people of Kimberley had done their
part in preserving for the world the great
est commercial asset of the age the Eng
lish flag:
come when any man can rise In any land
and point to yonder banner as a CONNER
cial asset. Applause) l trust, sir. that
something still will survive Of the days
when that banner foated above Washing
ton and his barefooted, bloody patriots at
Valley Forge; trust something still will
live OF the spirit that animated the men
who upheld that banner when they stood
with stubborn old Andrew Jackson at New
Orleans. I trust something, of the Hfe of
liberty still permeates this nation that per-
meated the followers Of yonder flag when
they marched with Grant on his stubborn
advance to Richmond.
And. Mr.. Chairman If the day ever
comes when that banner is nothing but a
commercial asset, then, SIR, every stripe of
white upon IT'S folds should be dyed tn the
blood OF the men we killed and conquered
and from yonder ground Of blue you should
take every star that represents an indie
pendent state" Applause, on the demo-
cratic side)
Mr.. Howard (Ga.) discussed the open
door policy in the east.
Mr.. Rucker (Io.) submitted an argument
IN favor OF a constitutional amendment for
the election OF senators by the people He
said that thirty-two states were on record
as favoring the popular, election OF sena-
tors.
Mr.. Boutell Qll.) closed the debate with
pr1et reply to the argument of Mr.. Cow
herd. He said that military glory and COM
mercial greed were as repugnant to him as
to the gentleman from Missouri He hoped
and prayed that in dealing with the prob
lens which confronted us We would be
guided by the highest motives, ana that the
blessings Of the God Of nations and the an
provai Of all civilization would rest upon
us.
