Would Protect Philippines.

A report sumbitted by the joint
army and naval board of which Ad-
miral Dewey is the senior member,
relative to Notifications for the Philip
pines, transmitted to the House by
Secretaries Root and Moody, says:
"The policy of Congress may be as
sumed to be to hold the Philippines
an American possession as against any
foreign enemy, but although the islands
have been in our possession now more
than 1--WE years, not gun has been
mounted nor an earthwork raised to
protect any of our harbors.''
The board it is stated, is unanimous
ly of the opinion:
That without fortified naval base
in the Philippines the Asiatic fleet can
not keep open the lines of communica-
ton for supplies from the United
States or between the army posts
within the Philippines, without which
supplies the military forces of the
United States could not hold command
of the islands,
THAT Manila is not, but that Subig
bay is, suited for naval station, and
OF all harbors in the archipelago it is
the best for the purpose.
THAT the fortification of Subig bay
is essential to the security for naval
station located there.
That fortified naval base on SUI
big bay will contribute materially to
the defense of Manila bay"

HEAVY DAMAGE BY
TRINIDAD FIRE

Denver, Jan. IA Trinidad special
to the Republican last night says:
The worst conf1agration in Trinidad
for dozen years started in basement
room of the Masonic block on East
Main street at O'Clock this afternoon
and was not fully under control until
10 o'clock tonight, although all the
available apparatus of the fire depart
T;ent was kept constantly at work. 1t
was the most stubborn fire that Trini-
dads fire department has ever had to
combat and the total loss is estimated
q. Eot less than 100000, about one
half this amount being covered by in
Surance.
Adjoining the Masonic block on the
west is the Odd Fellows block. For a
time it seemed this building was also
doomed to destruction, but hard work
on the part of the firemen saved it.
On the east of the Masonic block is
the Bloom block. occupied by F.. w.
Caldwells grocery and N1unroe's wall
paper and paint house. The basement
was occupied by the Robinson COM
pany's printing plant. The fire spread
to the upper part of this building and
those occupants who failed to get their
effects out lost them. A deluge of wa
ter kept the fire from the store rooms
below, but the damage was heavy.
Caldwell, who carried no insurance,
succeeded in getting his entire stock
out.
Following is summary of the losses
as near as can be ascertained:
ID. L. Taylor, Masonic block, $50, 900;
insurance, $4,000.
w. A. Fowler. furniture, $4,000 to
$4,000; insurance, SIP, 1000.

Why We Are PROSPEROUS.

We are the most prosperous people
in the world because we both produce
and consume more than others. The
little that we sell abroad, about ten
per cent. of our net production, and
the little we purchase abroad, about
six or seven per cent. of our net CON
sumption, constitute no challenge to
the statement that our prosperity rests
with ourselves.
