A Victory for MARYLAND.

The Isthmian Canal Commission has
awarded the contract to the Maryland Steel
Company for two steel sea-going suction
dredgcs for use AZ the Isthmus.
The Maryland Steel Company was the
lowest American bidder for the boats, but
William Simon & Co., of Rcnfrew. Scotland,
were the lowest bidders, their tender being
$327,000 each, or 1854 900 for the two deliv.
cred ut their works. The bid Of the Mary.
land company was 100000 each, or $794,.
600 for the two delivered in the Chesapeake
bay. The Maryland company was consider
ably lower than the next highest American
bidder, this being possible on account of the
fact that they have already bull, and dcliv
cred six other suction dredges of similar type,
all of which were for the Engineer Corps Of
the United States ArEy and fare insuccess-
full operation. Two Of them are in New
York channel, two on the Great Lakes, one
at Savannah and one on the Delaware river
and bay.
The Canal Commission at first favored
placing the order with the Scotch company
on the ground that they should buy in the
cheapest market, but in view of recent de.
velopments it was decided to have them
built at home. The fact that the Govern
mcnt would have to send inspectors to the
Scotland yard and keep them there during
the entire course of construction, and then,
when the boats were completed. have TO
bring them over here at its own expense, and
the difference in price of the dredges deliver
ed at their destination after completion cut
down the difference in the two prices 10 such
an extent that the Maryland Steel Company
was given the contract The fact OF Its hay
ing built vessels of similar type enabled 1t to
make the price as low as 1t was,

Unknown Friends.

There are many people who have
used Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy with splendid re-
suits, but who are unknown because
they have hesitated about giving tes-
timonial Of their experience for publ
cation. These people, however, are
none the less friends of this remedy.
They have done much toward making
1t a household word by their personal
recommendations to friends and neigh
bors. 1t is good medicine to have in

they are more than twice as efficient,
so there is economy in their employ
ment. There are now about $1,000
men on the pay roll Of whom fully To-.
900 are at work, and if the negro la
borers are more largely employed than
the Spaniards the force al its maximum
will reach $4,000. But if the spanards
are employed, it probably will never
get quite that high.
The Rate Bill is still in conference.
1t is expected to get out early next
week, and it is said that all the amend.
ments have been agreed on save only
that regarding the pipe lines. 1t has
been wished to declare the pipe lines
common carriers with a view to put
ting them under the control of the In
terstate Commerce Commission. But
they haye fought this desperately as it
would bring them within the prohibi-
ton against owring the commodity they
carried. What the outcome will be, ii
is impossible to say but no one is likely
to know before the end of the week as
it is intended to hold off the bill from
vote as long as possible to prevent
the floods of oratory that it would
awaken as soon as it got back to open
session.
Late this week the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission held what probably
will be its last hearing of the season on
the investigation of the coal and oil
carrying roads under the Tillman-Gil-
lespie resolution. They bad before
them for the last witness Mr.. James
Gardner, consulting coal expert Ct the
Erie railroad. Mr.. Gardner has acted
in the same capacity to several Of the
most important railroads of the country
go that his remarks were worth listen
ing to. He made a rather strong point
for the railroad ownership Of coal lands
saying that it was imperative for the
roads to own their own coal mines te
insure them steady supply of fuel al
the lowest possible cost. He said thai
the Erie road owned four such compan'
les, supplying at least half Of all the
coal they used, that the ownership O.
the MINES was perfectly legitimate and
iustifiable and he had advised then tt
buy more mines as their needs in
creased.

the untutorod Indian had learned the

she might do the work and let him hunt.
Therefore, he dug "papoose root for her,
