Ye ,aes !. IT have not regretted the step
Boiler was destined to MAY an important
part in the development Of the railway sys-
tenn which which he has been connected so
long. The first locomotives used by the
Missouri Pacific we're built in ST. Louis, but
In 1855 the railroad company imported one
from the East.
The engine was brought by rail to Alton
and there loaded on the ferry. Boiler helped
load the locomotive on the ferry. rode down
the Mississippi with It, helped unload 1t.
when fourteen horses were required to
drag it up the Levee and was with 1t when
It was pulled through the streets to the
Missouri Pacific tracks.
Every locomotive that the Missouri Pa
cific brought from the East was carried
across the river until the Eads bridge was
built In the early seventies.
When the Gasconade disaster occurred.
Boiler was with the wrecking crew that
cleared away the debris.

regarding the construction Of system Of
railroads in the Philippine Islands amount
ing to some 600 miles.
1t Is proposed TO build line from Ma
Mia north through Luzon to the harbor at
the northernmost END of the island. with a
complete set of tributaries ramifying the
interior of the island and reaching every
coast.
The propositions which have been consid-
cred by the Secretary OF War and the
Governor Of the Philippines contemplate aid
by the Philippines Government.
II Is believed that a guarantee Of the in
terest on the amount Of the cost of the
roads. in case the roads prove unable to pay
such interest out OF the earnings. will be
sufficient to induce capital to invest in the
different enterprises. The Philippine Gov
eminent could not make grants of land to
aid the construction OF the roads, but 1t
could grant rights Of way.
1t has been determined that the Philippine
Government has authority to guarantee the
