A Manila cable says unconfirmed infor-
nation is to the effect that Aguinaldo
Is hiding on the north coast Of the Isl

that has been had OF the insurrectionist

at ali satisfactory. Many late rumors
have had It that Aguinaldo is dead, and

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Ledger Qnd) says:
''The number of people in the United
States who believe that England would
declare war upon us if we should pro-
coed to build the Nicaragua canal with
out her consent is probably very small.
The assertion that she would do so made
a good oratorical passage in Senator
Morgan's speech, but there is very little
danger of anything of the kind. Englanl
has had enough of war for the present,
aud is in no condition to undertake one
with country so full of resources as this
one is. However, that is not a particu-
larly strong argument for the canal"

is THE HELLO GIRL DooMEDr

The hello girl is a legacy and a bene-
faction from the old century which the
new century promises to rob us of shortly.
Just as we are getting used to the girl,
and beginning to like her real well, not
withstanding she sometimes chews gum
and has pert ways, along comes inventive
science and DEGREES that she must go.
And what is proposed to be substituted in
her place? A little apparatus of brass,
with dial and some wires and push but
ton attachment. This little instrument is
to sit up in the telephone exchange, in the
place hitherto sacred to the hello girl,
and take away her job of putting sub
scribers into communication with each
other.
The automatic exchange instrument has
already been invented, and was recently
tested in New Bedford, Mass. By means
of it each subscriber makes his own con-
nection with any other number that it is
desired to CALI There is no waiting, but
the instant the subscriber indicates the
number wanted, by a certain manipulation
of an apparatus attached to the telephone
the connection is made. Should 1t chance
that the number wanted is engaged the
apparatus gives a "buzzing sound"-in
which it is somewhat like some of the
hello girls-which notifies the caller to try
again little later. One subscriber can
not "cut in on the conversation of
other subscribers, but as soon as a con-
versation is ended and the receivers re-
placed upon the hooks the lines are au-
tomatcally freed and made ready for 9TH
err calls.
The new apparatus is said to be instan-
taneous in service and perfectly accurate
in operation. Another advantage is that
1t is absolutely secret. With 1t there can
be no listening to conversations over the
lines, as is possible in the manual ex-
changes. 1t is not meant to be insinuated
that the hello girls do any such thing as
to eavesdrop their lines; that such a thing
is possible with the present system is
nevertheless a fact. The inventor of the
automatic apparatus claims rapidly oil
service and economy OF cost in behalf OF
his invention. Should 1t displace the gir
we should part with her with sincere re-
grets and best wishes for her future.

LAWSON OUT OF THE TRIAL RACES


The friends of Thomas w. lawson. who
is building the yacht Independence to
contend against Sir Thomas Lptons
Shamrock in defense of the Americas
cup, are very much put out because he
will not be permitted to enter his yacht
in the trial races of the New York Yacht
Club. If he IS not permitted to take part
in those races he may not have a chance
10 enter his yacht in the contest in de-
Tense of the Americas cup. He will in
that event be out about $4,000 for prac-
ticalIy nothing.
Mr.. Lawson ought to have made sure
that he could enter his yacht in the trial
races before he began to build her. He
knew of course that only yachts flying
the flags of members of the club are al
lowed in these trial races, and he knew
that he was not member of the club.
He can of course have his yacht entered
in the races provided he puts her in in the
name of member OF the dub, but If he
were to do that he would be deprived of
much of the glory his yacht might win.
1t is claimed by Mr. Lawsons friends
that in view of the fact that ne has gone
to so much expense in building a yacht
the New York Yacht Club could not do
less than invite him to enter his boat
in the trial races. To do this the clubs
rules would have to be violated. But
beyond that is the fact that Mr.. Lawson
was al one time proposed for membership
in the club. and his friends were asked
to withdraw his name. 1t Is said
that il it had not been with
drawn his application would have
been denied. Under the cFrcum-
stances the club could not very wen in
vite him to enter his yacht in the trial
races.
The club is having a boat built by the
Herreshoff's to defend the Americas cup.
and in the trial races it will be decided
whether this new yacht or the Columbia,
the victor of last year, will be the cup
defender 1t is barely possible that Mr..
Lawson may get his yacht into the races
by letting her carry the flag of a men,
Der of the club. He has stated, however,
that he is building the yacht with the
idea of sailing her in his name and under
his colors. If he adheres to that idea the
chances are that his yacht will not par
ticipate in the trial races. Without taxi
ing part in them his yacht cannot be
chosen as the defender of the cup
