| to make the center of her military con-
centration, is located on the Sungarl
river, at the point where the Man.
churian branch of the Siberian rail-
way crosses the stream, and three
hundred and fifty miles west of Vladi-
vistok and six hundred miles north of
Port Arthur. Its location is the geo.
graphical center of Manchuria and as
base for military operations it is ad-
mirably situated. The city is sur
rounded on all sides for hundreds OF
miles with rich and productive agr1cul-
tural country, producing corn, wheat,
oats, barley, tobacco, vegetables and
some fruits. Minerals and timber and
great areas of grazing lands also sur
round it.
At present the place consists of the
old town, three miles from the central
depot; Preston, or the river town. the
present commercial center, and the ad-
mnistration town, in close. proximity
to the railway station. Before the
railway engineer, established this as
their headquarters there was no native
town in the vicinity, and the entire
place is therefore a Russian product.
The city has been created by the
Russian government; under the man.
Poi va Y
company. The land for many miles in
each direction has been secured so as
to make it impossible for any foreign
influence to secure a profit of foot
hold close to the city, and foreigners
have been recognized as having no
rights whatever. The normal popula
ton of the city consists of $4,000 Rus
slams. exclusive of soldiers.
The Sungari river is navigable With
light draught steamers and native
craft for nearly two hundred miles
above the city. From Hardin to the
Amoor river, during the navigating
season. which will begin in. about four
or five weeks and continue to the first
of November, goodsized steamers
run daily.
The city was started primorily as a
military center and an administration
town. for the government and direction
of railway affairs. It's growth into a
splendid commercial and manufacture
ing city was not originally provided
for by the promoters, and it was some
what of a surprise to them, but, once
started, the government used every
system Of promotion and protection
that could be devised to encourage it's
growth along these lines. Numbered
among the citys industries are flour
mills, several of which are equipped
with modern American machinery,
meat packing plants =, sawmills and
brick making plants.

Washington Gossip.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 26.-lt is
expected there will be 4 scramble for
the craftsmanship of the senate COM
mittee on interoceanic. canals, made
vacant by the death of Senator Hanna.
Senator Platt of New York is the
ranking republican member and in the
natural course of events would sue
seed to the craftsmanship. But Plat
is chairman of the committee on print
ing. which requires little work but
controls vast amount of patronage,
and the probabilities are that he will
relinquish his right to this chairman
ship.
Following Senator Platt is Senator
Mitchell of Oregon. who has long been
Interested in canal legislation, and
who no doubt would be gratified to re-
ceive the appointment But there are
indications that Senator Mitchell will
not have a Walkover in getting this
place. Other members of the COM
mttee aspire to succeed Hanna. and
they are men with more or less intiu-
ence, who may be able to secure suffi-
Cient endorsements to bring about their
promotion over the head of the sena-
tor from Oregon. Senator Willard of
NAaht lSl, n T. -
in the event ii is determined the Oregon
man cannot have this place. he Will
seek tn promotion. as he now fills an
unimportant craftsmanship, which is
rot desirable from any point of view.
The strongest opponent to Mr.. Mitchell
viii be kittridge of South Dakota. who
is now chairman of the committee on
patents. kittr;dge has been an en-
thusaStic advocate of canal. al
though not much of a speaker. and he
has a strong following in the senate.
especially among western men. The
contest will be between Mitchell and
kittridge Mitchell has the advanta &c
of seniority and priority on the com
lnittee list. and in the natural course of
events would succeed Hanna in case
Piatt stems aside. II may MOI he de-
termined for some time who will be
the chairman of this committee. as
there is no urgent necessity for having
the place filled. ana it NAV be that
nothing will be done until after Sena-
tor Hannl'S successor has been an
pointed and takes his seat in the SEN
ate.

cies on two important committees

DIR. Hart's Fortunate Experience o

The bappiest man in New Eng

Although he resorted to the latest

take careful, sober men, who earn
good wages. So also does the watch
man, 80 years in Fairbanks service,
who tempers. with a carefully
watched fire of cherry Goals, the
knife edge bearings. The output
runs from a massive track scale,
bedded in masonry, that weighs care
and locomotives, to the nny postal
scale but all bear the trademark and
all have the Fairbanks quality. one
of the most modern scales is the self
registering kind that stamps auto-
matical1y the gross weight and tare,
leaving the net weight matter of
few moments computation on the
card. A bathroom scale with height
record is another novelty.
Power is furnished by steam and
electricity, the former a matter of
800 horsepower the latter 40. The
huge fly-wheel, thirty feet in diane
ter, and the big machines, with
their polished piston-rods, cranks,
valve stems and cylinder heads, con-
stitute one of the show places of the
esta blishment.
After the inspection the editors
gathered in the Casino, a sort of
c1ub.room for the employees, the
upper story utilized by those whose
dinners are carried and the lower
sort of reading and board-room,
where once a month the heads of all
the departments meet, compare
notes and plan business. Here they
were cordially welcomed by Mr.. Turn
er and, after a few brief words
lunch, followed by some excellent
cigars, put all at ease. Mr.. Turner
explained the company's methods of
doing business, its cordial relations
with its employees. its institution
of weekly payments and threw some
light on the widespread character
of the company's trade. The talk
showed that, in spite of the heavy
handicap of being long way from
coal and iron supplies, the concern
was still doing business, not by get
ting out cheap scale bur good
one.
Some more informal talk was in
dulged in, President Parker thanked
the management on behalf of the
press, and, after many injunctions
to come again and stay longer, the
editors bade their genial hosts
goodbye.
