Oil Versus
~ Sa Coal

Ex-Gov. Hogg of Texas, believes that
the discovery OF oil in such bountiful
quantity in that commonwealth will
revolutionize the fuel question Of the
whole world. He says that the manu-
facturers of this country and Europe
have not yet come to a sense of a rea-
lization of what the wonderful oil dis
covery and development in the Beau
mont fields means to them. The prob
lem that now confronts the oil pro-
ducers of the new district is what shall
they do with the OIL
Seven gushers already in the Beau
mont field is a record which is adding
daily interest in the development in
the new oil region. 1t seems to be gen.
orally recognized that the great value
of the oil is its quality as a fuel,
placed by natured where it il capable
of doing he most good to the greatest
number at the least cost of production.
The special advantages which Beau
mont oil has over any other oil in the
world is in the fact that it can be pro-
duced and marketed at minimum
cost. Being produced within eighteen
miles of seaport, it can be piped
into tank steamers at a cost so small
as to be almost incalculable, and it
can be delivered at the seaports OF the

choose to think it synonymous with
stinting, though this is not the real

plenty is often looked upon as waste,
yet there is a vast difference between
the two. But the amount of waste
that goes on even in the best regulated

closely. For every housewife, of high

"a VERY COSTLY TARGET
n Reproduction OF War Ship That
b VIII Cost Fortune to Bo
g Used as Mark.

Our naval experts are making ready
to test new gun and a new explosive
in very elaborate fashion. No old war
ship being available, the Brooklyn
Naval Yard has received orders to
make a dummy vessel, at a cost of
$4,000 or $4,000, the side of which
is to be an actual duplicate of an actu-
al man-of-War.
This costly target, says the New
York Journal, will be used to test one
of the new twelve-inch rifles such as
are now being installed on our latest
battleships.
Upon this floating target will also
be trained the new Gathman torpedo
gun. One shot from this frightfully
destructive weapon may blow the
dummy war ship into splinters.
Naval officers are now discussing the
question of what avail it would be if
the armor We're of the finest quality if
a shot striking it should drive it bodi-
ly into the side of the ship or so strike
and injure it as 10 permit large guam
titles of water to enter. 1t is thus
evident that the quality of the armor
is only one element OF the resisting
power of the ships side.

TO GAIN
TERRITORY

Kingston, Jamaica, April 4.
The following statement of the
causes leading up to the recently de-
veloped boundary trouble between the
republics of Hayti and Santo Domin-
go and of the present condition of af-
fairs is furnished by persons just re-
turned from the island: What is
known as the Dominican republic, or
the republic of Santo Domingo, was
once province of the republic of
Hayti. In 1874 the internal troubles
and state of anarchy which then pre-
vailed (as a result of the revolution
which overthrow the government of
President Boyer, after twenty-five
years in office) facilitated and was the
cause of the secession of the eastern
portion of the island, which then pro-
claimed its independence. The exist
ence of the new republic was recog-
nized by the Haytien government in
1874. The question of the delimitation
of the frontiers arose naturally from
the fact that the territory of the
Dominican republic is not, and never

has recently occurred at Phitobert, on
the northern frontier and which great
ly endangers the friendly relations of
the sister republics, is considered by
the Haytiens to be premeditated
provocation on the part of the Domin-
leans. The Haytien posts established
in that district to put down smuggling
and brigandage from over the border
have had to defend themselves against
the repeated attacks BY mutual con-
sent the river Massacre which divides
the Dominican province of Dajabon
Tor LaXavon) from Haytien territory
has for a long time been Professionally
accepted by this government as the
natural boundary of the two states.
All the country on the right bank of
the river was acknowledged to belong
to Santo Domingo, while the country
on the left bank was regarded by both
governments as Haytien territory.
And hereby hangs a funny and in
teresting tale. The Dominicans a year
or two ago conceived a brilliant idea.
Knowing that nature sometimes makes
rivers in the tropics change their
courses it occurred to some people re-
siding on the right bank of the stream
that they might add considerably to
Dominican territory if they could
manage to effect a deviation in the

bed of the Massacre. And no sooner
thought than attempted. Huge boul-
ders and trunks of trees were repeat
edly rolled into the river. This, the
HaytieLs say, with the knowledge and
connivance of the Dominican govern
ment. But up to the date of the COM
mencement of the present troubles all
such attempts to improve upon nature
proved unavailing. For the Haytiens
on the left bank discovered the little
scheme, and time after time removed
the obstacles in the river before dam
age was done. However, within cou-
pie of weeks ago, a remarkable thing
happened. The Haytien soldiers at
Phitobert, situated on Haytien terri
tory on the left bank of the Massacre,
retired to rest one night. When they
awoke next morning they looked in
vain for the river The bed over
which the water had previously flowed
was dry. Investigations followed, and
it was found that the river was flow
ing over a new channel some miles to
the west. OF course the Dominicans
discovered, not that the river had
changed its bed in the course of
night, but that the Haytien soldiers
had transferred some substantial
buildings some miles into the interior
of San Domingo in the space of sin
gle setting and rising of the sun. The
Dominican representatives appeared
Immediately on what was Haytien ter
ritory the day before and called upon
the Haytien officer to remove his po-
sition to the other side of the river.
The Dominican officer who made the
demand expressed the indignation Of
his government at the contemplate
action of the Haytiens. The Haytiens,
however, refused to withdraw their
post, calling instead upon the Domini-
cans to restore the river to its origi-
nal bed Then the trouble commenced.
There was a clash of arms. The Hay
items had the upper hand, and so the
Dominicans agreed to have the whole
matter decided by arbitration. Mean
time, however, the Dominicans are
quietly preparing for war, and there is
a strong feeling in Hayti that there
VIII! be clash of arms before the qdes-
tion of arbitration is settled. The
Haytien troops along the frontier
have been reinforced and are now
quietly awaiting the coming of the
Dominicans to force them back across
the river.-Philadelphia Times.

Product Of the Texas
Field May Come
Into Use for Fuel.

United States, Mexico, the West Indies,
South America and Europe at a cost
so low that no other fuel can be used
in competition for steam purposes.
Fuel oil from wells in the Beaumont
field can be piped into the seaboard at
Port Arthur and run into tank steam
ers at a total cost of production and
transportation no exceeding ten cents
barrel, and as three and one-half bar
rels of oil are equal to one ton of coal
for steam purposes, this is equal to the
delivery of coal at the seaboard at a
cost of thirty-five cents a ton.
The location is specially advantage
Gus for shipment to Mexico and the
West Indies, which are the largest i'm
porters of American coal, receiving
nearly eighty per cent of all the coal
that is exported, excepting that which
goes to Canada. In considering the ex-
port feature of fuel oil and the advan-
tageous location of the Beaumont field,
the growing Importance Of New Or
leans and Galveston as seaports should
not be overlooked. These ports now
stand respectively fourth and fifth in
the value of their exports, which in
each case amount to more than double
that of San Francisco, and are only
exceeded by New York, Boston and
Baltimore.

Testing Fireproof stairs For Flats.

In Frankfort, Germany, official tests
have been made Of fireproof stairs for
apartment houses. Fires fed with a
material which gave forth an intense
heat were built in the yard of one of
the fire department houses, and over
these fires the stairs were placed. The
longest resistance was shown by the
stairs which had a covering of plaster,
and it was found that they could be
used twenty-five minutes after the fire
was started. The stairs covered with
fireproof paint were made of SO many
different materials and of such vary
ing strength that no definite results
could be arrived at, but they were
serviceable after five or ten minutes
in the heat. OF the stairs of wood
and not covered with fireproof paint,
those of oak withstood the fire the
longest.

CUBA is va

Gen. Wood, military governor OF
Cuba. is in Washington. He says
everything is harmonious in the island
and it is prospering. What is wanted
is the repeal or reduction of the sugar
tax now in force by the United States.
With the former granted Cuba would
embark on career OF unprecedented
prosperity.
AS public affairs so they are in such
a condition that they could be turned
over to the Cubans on forty-eight
hours notice Every position not held
by Cuban has one just below it held
by a Cuban who thoroughly under
stands his American superior's duties.
The tranquil condition of Cuba can
best be understood by the fact that
Gen. Woods home is only protected
by single Cuban guard, and one could
tourney all over the island without
molestation as well as in the United
States. Highway robberies are not
unknown in Arizona or New Mexico,
and perhaps on tour through twenty
towns of Cuba they may occur, but
they are a rarity.

Principe provinces no troops are sta
toned, and but 4200 throughout the
entire island. The people appreciate
the change of the last ten years. Two

An Automatic Ticket Machine.

Recent experiments by railway Off
Gals in Berne with an automatic ticket
machine, invented by a Swiss have
given entire satisfaction, says a Berne
correspondent. The machine is similar
to the ordinary automatic machines,
bat the glass cases contain the tickets
on which are printed the names Of the
stations and the price of the ticket.
BY dropping in the right amount and
pulling a handle the ticket is set free.
The machinery is so well constructed
that an insufficient sum of money or
any base coins will not work the
spring, and there is no danger of the
purchaser losing the whole amount.
