AN INTERESTING REPORT.

An interesting report of the railway.
mail service is made public today. 1t
gives a detailed account Of the operations
of this BRANCH of the postal service dur
ing the past year. and recites fully the
particulars relating to the handling of
mail over the vast network this system
forms ON the map of the United States,
1t is notable that few errors are made in
the work of handling mail in this de
partment. The record shows that out or
the pieces distributed only one in 10,626
went wrong. This division of the
service is regarded as the best in point
of efficiency of all the divisions of the
system. and it's operation. as indicated
by the report, gives a hint of the degree
Of care required in this model branch of
the department. 1t is a matter for con-
graduation that the other divisions of
the system are being trained to initiate
the railway mail service in careful atten-
ton to detail. to the end that the public
may have better service and annoying
mistakes may be avoided.
The report discloses the fact that the
railway mail service is not without it's
dangers to life and limb. Last years
casualties made larger total than those
of>any previous year, and embodied in
the report is recommendation that pro-
vision be made for providing injured
employees of the service with suitable
relief and that better protection be Of
fered clerks while in the discharge of
their official duties. The railway mail
service has been brought to a high de-
gree of perfection during the years of
it's operation, and in the proposed over
hauling of the postal system for the pur-
pose of cutting down the annual deficit
it is said Postmaster General Smith will
attempt to grade other departments of
the service up to the standard reached
by the branch of the department which
carries the mail by rail. ~

STEAM DETnRONtD.

Advances in electrical engineering
of the Industrial world. Since Niagara
falls was harnessed the world has been
furnished an object lesson which made
plain the possibilities which were in the
way of enterprise in the search for
cheap power for transportation purposes.
Recently announcement was made that
the government of Sweden had ordered
the management of all railways under
control of the government to substitute
electric power for steam.
This attempt to revolutionize the rail-
way service Of Sweden by converting it
into examples of successful electrical
engineering is not the only instance in
which steam has been sunplanted by
electric power. 1t has been found en-
tirely feasible to convey electricity over
long stretches of wire and light cities,
propel electric cars and move the ma
chinery of manufacturing establishments
as we'll as steam can do the work, and at
a vastly reduced expense. So successful
have experiments in this direction proved
that it is predicted in the late issue of
The Engineering News that railways Of
the West will before long utilize electric
power to move trains. This prediction
is based upon proof Of the cheapness Of
electric power as compared with steam
and upon the knowledge that the waters
Of thousand mountain streams may be
utilized to generate the electric current.
Notable in the history of electrical en-
cheering is the immense power plant on
the Upper Yuba river, California. From
this plant electric currents at a pressure
of $4,000 volts is carried 1g4 miles to San
Jose. The practical test Of electric trans
mission opens the doors to new uses for
this cheap and practical power. 1t fore
shadows the coming of electric railways
for mountainous countries and the rele-
cation of the more expensive steam
power to sections of country where water
power is not available.

FILIPINO TRFAChfRY.

From Manila come two press dis
the Philippines. In the first item
mention is made of the fact that native
residents of the Island of Leyte, divis-
ion Of the Philippine group, near Samar.
are complaining of the scarcity of food
because of the blockade established to
cut off communication between the in
surgents and the war-like natives Of
Samar. Following close upon this an
nouncement came tidings of a plot of
wholesale massacre Matched by the ma
tives of a neighboring island. Those
who read both dispatches will be glad to
learn that General Smith refused to raise
the blockade. and notified the. natives
that he intended patrolling San Juanico
straits until the insurgents We're starved
into submission and would see to 1t that
communication was cut of between the
native forces while the murderous bands
c ntinued to bear arms in defiance Of
the United States authorities. 1t seems
to be the opinion of General Smith that
Filipinos hungry are not nearly so
much concern as Flipinos bloodthirsty,
and there is no reason to believe that he
is wrong in his Judgment.
An act is now being formulated to cope
with treason in the Philippines. The
civil commissioners of the island have
framed law making treason punishable
by death and imposing a fine of $4,000 or
ten years Imprisonment for breaking the
oath of allegiance. 1t seems impossible
to make the natives understand govern
mental authority in the abstract. The
spectacle Of a few Of the treacherous ma
tives undergoing punishment for crime
will give view of the situation which
they will doubtless be better able to
grasp The lives of American soldiers
taken by treacherous natives might have
been spared had measures more drastic
been taken at the beginning. Complete
and permanent control Of the islands
can only be secured by exercising gov
ernmental control with a firm hand

MONTANA COAL MINES.

recent report of the bureau of Agri-
culture, labor and statistics gives figures
concerning the coal production IN Mon
tana. The report shows that the value
of the coal produced in the state during
the year 1900 was s23S, $50 greater than
the total production of the preceding
year. The total value of the coal taken
from the mines Of the state during the
past year was $2.369,O5i and this was
produced from mines in which the cap
ttal invested represented s., $50, 500 There
are q mines in operation in the state and
in connection with several of the mines
coke ovens are operated. The best part
Of the coal business in Montana is seer

A GENEROUS ACT.

A dispatch in today's press report says
NJ. Santos Dumont will divide the Deutsch
prize of 100000 francs among the poor
and his assistants in the work of COM
polling his balloon to make the cir
cult of the Eff1el tower. 1t is evident
that the distinguished aerial navigator
is as chivalrous and generous as he is
brave and skillful. This generous act Is
in keeping with the spirit which urged
the scientists on to the victory which
earned the rich prize. AS a commander
of the dirigible balloon NJ. Santos-Du-
mont deserves to rank with the admirals,
whose fame was won in less hazardous
expeditions. He has achieved a triumph
in the scientific world which entities him
to enduring fame, anu his recent example
OF generosity stamps him as a man who
will bear his honOrs with becoming
modesty.

PROMOTIONS FROM the FORtCASIlt.

News is sent out today from the navy
department telling of the approval OF ex-
animation papers of two naval gunners.
Francis Martin and Henry b. Saule.
These two young men are the first to be
promoted under the. law passed last
winter with reference to naval promo
tons. 1t was provided in an act passed
in the last congress that six warrant
officers of the navy may be given COM
missions annually upon giving proof Of
their fitness before an examining board.
This was the first time the doors of OPP
portunity had been swung open to allow
common sailor to reach the highest
rank in the navy. There are few who
will feel disposed to criticise the act
which allows ambitious young men in the
navy to reach the quarter deck without
being trained in naval academy. The
practical training in the grades from
the lower ranks to the high and RESPONSE
bic positions serves the purpose of max
ing good sailors. as has been amply
proved. The war with Spain gave proof
of the fact that thefs were many young
men in the ranks Of the navy who were
bound to rise if given the opportunity.
The young seamen now have an Oppor-
tunity of climbing the ladder of promo
tion.' The two mentioned in today's dis
patch have already begun to ascend.
The highest grades in the navy are now
open to them. The practical seamanship
learned before the mast will stand them
good opportunities of becoming famous
and valuable to their country as the
young men who are sent out Of Annap-
oils each year. The new law will open
the way to admirals honors to many
worthy young men now in the lower
grades Of the service.
