In SIS report to Secretary Root the
Philippine commission says that In the
not distant future the English language
viii be the medium OF communication IN
the courts public Offices and between
the different tribes. This is probably
so. for OF all the foreign languages IN
the Orient English is by far the most
prevalent Pigeon English is almost
universal throughout the East there
being no such thing as pigeon French or
pigeon German or pigeon Russian Inc
tongue Of the modern Anglo-saxon
bids fair to become the most universal
Of all the languages.

PENNsYLVANIA,s PLANS.
Why the Long Island Property Was
Acquired.

PHILADELPHIA May An executive
officer OF the Pennsylvania railway to-
day stated to the Associated Press the
objec. Z f that company in acquiring con-
troll - the Long Island railway. The
traffic of Brooklyn, he said, with its more
than 100000 nhabitants, had been almost
entirely confined to the East River front
All the freight brought by the railways to
that city as well as that taken from there
for distribution throughout the country
between terminal points of the different
railways and piers and railway yards
along the East River. Naturally these
facilities are limited and crowded, and in
to the very narrow district along the
waters edge. On the other hand the
tracks Of the Long Island road form
belt line extending around the outskirts
OF the built-up part of Brooklyn from the
Thirty-fOurth street ferry to Bay Ridge
with lines into the various centers of the
city. These lines afford the means of es-
tablishing freight depOts, yards for car
load delivery, and coal and lumber yards
conveniently located, and of unlimited Ca
paclty. They also afford opportunities,
which will no doubt be extensively avail
ed of for the erection of manufactures of
all kinds required by rail connections.
When the new freight terminus of the
pennsylvania railway at Greenville, op
pOSlje Bay Ridge, is completed, cOnnec-
tion with the Long Island system will be
made at Bay Ridge by a comparatively
short car float ferry. Meanwhile the pres
ent transfer bridges at Jersey City will
be used, but ultimately a tunnel from
Station Island to Bay, Ridge NAV be
built. In that case traffic between the
pennsylvania railway lines and New Eng
land would pass through the tunnel and
over the Long Island tracks and across
the bridge at Wards island to a connec-
tion with the New York, New Haven &
Hartford railway.

TRANSFER IS FULLY MADE
TO NEW OWNERS YES
TERDAY
SOME CHANGES IN PROSPECT
Gossip as to Who VIII Go and Who
VIII Stay Under the
Changed Condf-
tiOns.

The actual transfer of the st. Paul &
Duluth road to the Northern Pacific oc-
CURED yesterday. There were no changes
of note resulting, and the only indication
OF anything out of the ordinary routine of
business was the presence of Finley
Shepard, a Northern Pacific official, in
the office of the general manager.
Pending the return of General Traffic
Manager Hannaford, Of the Northern Pa
cific, who is absent at a traffic meeting
in San Francisco at present little addi-
tional will be done. The affairs of the
new acquisition are now under control
of the Northern Pacific, and the road is
operating the head of the lakes line as
its own Mr. Hannaford's return is not
definitely announced, but it is expected
that he viii be in st. Paul again during
the present week, or early next week.
Mr.. Shepard will remain in the general
managers Office until more definite plans
are announced.
President c. S. Mellen, OF the Northern
Pacific, who was to have returned Sun
day, is on his way West and will be in
ST. Paul tomorrow. President r. Somers
Hayes, of the St Paul & Duluth, will ar
rive in the city shortly for a conference
with Duluth officials and to attend the
annual meeting of the road to be held
May 81. Mr.. Hannaford will assume i'm
mediate control of all matters pertain
ing to the traffic of the Duluth on his
return. The appointments and transfers
incident to the transfer of the property
will not be announced until that time 1t
is given out on excellent authority, how
ever, that d. A McKinlay, general audi
tor of the road, will be retained, and that
General Freight Agent Broughton will
occupy his old position, as freight agent,
under the new regime. 1t Is considered
probable that he will be appointed as
assistant general freight agent of the
Northern Pacific, in charge of the busi-
ness of the line.
Cal Stones security in his present posi-
ton, as general passenger agent, is ad-
mitted generally.
