WASHINGTON, June 27.-Justice
Bradley, in the equity court, to-day de-
cided the Manila bay prize case. The

that the cascoes, or cargo boats, and all
floating derricks that were captured at
Manila are not prize.
The Santiago case hinges on the Ma

Twelve houses have already been built

"LocAL IMPERIALISM,

When they announce condition of

one warning faction has swallowed the
other which was the case with the
Hanna and Foraker Hanna do
ing the swallowing act.
But while the Forakerites where thus
harnonized' in the convention. it
doesn't prevent them from talking
about It afterward and giving their
Opinion Of such harmony. They call it
local imperialism. Which is a rath-

SOUTHERN POSSIBILITIES.

A recent report of the Treasury De-
partment tells of the increased favor
with which American cotton goods
are received in China. Speaking of the
cotton trade, the report says thai the
expansion in American manufacture at
the expense of the British is natural,
and must be expected to continue
Proximity to China cheapens freight
rates, ana the evident advantage OF
using indigenous cotton are all factors
which will contribute to the future ex-
pansion of the American trade.
This is not unexpected news in view
of the development of Southern indus
fury, statistics OF which were given in
these columns the other day In
twenty years the number of bales of
cotton raised in that section has in
creased from 5,761 ,252 to 10,3Oo,000. The
capital invested in cotton mills has
risen from $21,976,00O to s150.000,0O0
The amount of cotton consumed in
Southern mills has jumped from 1874
bales to 1,567,112 bales, while the
spindles have increased from 1854 to
100000.
As the Treasury report says, the ad
vantages in favor of the South for the
growth OF the cotton trade are pre-
ponderating. 1t is said that in the
great stretch of mountain country
which runs from Wheeling to Birming-
ham there is forty times as much coal
as Great Britain had before the first
pick was struck into the ground. West
Virginia alone has $4,000 square miles
of coal to Great Britains 10000 Now
that oil has been struck in Texas-the
greatest cotton-producing State in the
world-the fuel question has been fur
Their removed from doubt
With the cheapest fuel in the world
and cheap freights to the Orient, which
recent railroad and other developments
have given, what may not be the posi-
bilities of the South, which already has
practical monopoly Of the production of
cotton, furnishing three-fourths of the
cotton for the 100000, 900 spindles in the
world.

THE p. r.. r.. roRTlFrNIG.


The long headed gentlemen at the
head of the Pennsylvania railroad know
q thing or two and have decided that
their tremendous corporation = the
greatest of its kind in the world-can-
not afford to take chances with the
cast iron monopoly of the United States
Steel Corporation. None understand
better the great power of the new bill
lion steel trust not only over THAI and
allied branches of production and man
ufacture, but also over its carriers and
railroads generally, not only in the mat
ter of ireights and tonnage, but actual
railroad supplies, etc.
Therefore, the Pennsylvania Company
has decided that it cannot afford to per-
nit its vast affairs to be in any way
dependent on the will of the new bill
lion steel trust. Hence it has purchased
bodily the greatest Independent rival of
the United States Steel Corporation, the
Pennsylvania Steel Company. The pur-
chase was effected about two weeks ago,
but the official announcement is just
published. 1t is announced also that
the P. r. r. has secured, by purchase in
the open market of stock warrants,
controlling interest in the Cambria Steel
Company. The syndicate holdings of
the Pennsylvania Steel stock purchased
by the Pennsylvania Company consist
cd of $4,000, 600 preferred and $4,000
coo common stock, leaving $6,500oc0
preferred and s75o,0O0 common stock in
the hands of the general public
OF this S20,000,000 Of common and pre-
ferred stock allotmeats have been made
to the Reading Railroad Company ard
the Northern Central, Baltimore & Ohio,
Chesapeake & Ohio, and Norfolk &
Western railroad companies, the Penn
sylvania retaining the majority, with
the Reading railroad as the next larg-
est holder.
1t is announced that the properties
will be operated independently bu. in
harmony with the United States Steel
Corporation, and the present manage
nent will be retained for some time at
least.
Fhe securing CT control of these two
concerns, while ii is SAID not in any
way to imply antagonism to the United
States Steel Corporation, places the
Pennsylvania and other companies in
position to protect themselves from shy
meaacing or threatening attitude OF the
United States Steel Corporation in the
future, besides insuring tonnage of
large proportions that might otherwise
be diverted. The control OF the Cam
bria Steel Company gives the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company an increased
sRpply OF steel rails. II has entered in
to trade relationship with the Lacka-
wanna Steel Company. the only indie
pendent steel rail concern which is now
outside the trust, so that the entire sun
ply of steel rails in this country lies in
the hands of the United States Steel
Corporation and the syndicate identified
with the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany.
In all of which the Pennsylvania Com
pany exhibits its long head and COM
piete understanding Of trust methods
and appreciation of the fact that it
doesn't do to take chances when deal
ing with trust greed. 1t is a pity the
people cannot similarly fortify them
selves against extortioa.
