This is a fight in the common inter

Paper company. said;
1.-The conditions of the paper trade are
such that necesstate higher prices for
paper. Production is twice as expensive
at present as il was a short while ago.
The cost of labor has increased 80 per
cent; wood has advanced 81 per cord, and
other articles used in the manufacture of
paper have increased from 80 to 100 per
cent In cost.
VERY few paper manufacturers are
making money under the present condi-
tions. In some cases. they have been
supplying orders on old contracts at a
loss and any new contracts must be
made on higher schedule"

FIVE KILLED IN
RAILWAY WRECK
Long String OF Freight Cars
Dash Down Steep Grade on
Santa Fe in California.

San Bernardino, Cal, Sept. Elm a
daylight collision on the Cajon grade
of the Santa Fe at 4:3O o'clock this
morning, five men were killed and one
fatally injured. While switching at
Devere's station. on the steep grade,
the cars of a long freight train got
away and rushed down to the junction
of the switch, where a light engine and
the freight engine were standing. in
the crash which followed. Engineer H.
X Stratton of this city was instantly
killed, Brakemen Gray and Bryant
were piniOned beneath tons of debris,
and. though still alive but perhaps
fatally injured, were burned to death
in the wreckage which Immediately
caught fire and spread with such swift
ness that rescue was impossible. Two
tramps were also caught in the wreck
and were unable to escape before the
first caught them. Fireman Thresher
suffered a fractured skull and will
probably die. The remains of Stratton
were brought to this city this morning.
All overland trains from the east are
delayed at the scene of the wreck,
which is nine miles east of this city.
Air Brakes Failed.
Later reports showed that the fail
ure of the air brakes of the freight
train to hold was responsible for the
accident. The collision was between a
westbound freight and light engine,
which had a short time before helped
the long freight up the long climb to
the summit from the desert side of the
mountains. At the summit this engine
was uncoupled from the rear and pre-
ceded the freight down the mountain.
The freight started shortly afterward
and had gone but a short distance
when the air brakes refused to hold,
and the efforts of the brakemen with
the hand brakes were futile.
The train attained great velocity and,
at the Devere station, nine miles from
this city, overlook the light engine.
The freight engine tore off the tender
of the light locomotive and sent it far
down the track, with the engineer un-
hurt in the seat The big engine then
hurled itself into the sand between
the main and sidetraeks, crushing En-
gineer Stratton to death.
Thirty-four carloads of merchandise
were burned. The financial loss to the
railroad company is estimated at
$4,000

DEWEY AGAINST
ANY SUCH PLAN
American Admiral ReSentS
Proposition to Surrender
Philippine Islands.
GATEWAY TO THE ORIENT
WITHOUT THEM UNITED STATES
WOULD BE SHUT OUT.

Washington, Sept. 21.-Admiral Dewey
strongly resents the proposition that has
been discussed in a more or less academic
way to surrender the Philippines, which,
of all men. he was leading factor I'm
bringing under the American flag. In
an interview today the admiral sets out
the reasons which imDeI him to insist
upon the retention of the islands The
strong point of his argument is not based
upon the military or naval Importance
of the islands, but upon the great value
present and prospective, of the Philip
pines to America in the extension of our
trade with the orient.
Door Must Be Kept Open.
The admiral says: Abandon the Phil
ippines? I don't believe our country will
ever do that Certainly it should not, be
cause it has altogether too much at
stake It is only our control over the
Philippines that makes it possible for us
TO insist upon the open door in the east,
toward which our diplomacy has been d.
rected FOR years. We want our snare OF
the enormous commerce of the east and
we can't keep the door open for it I'M
less we hold the islands. Why did Spain
for 200 years dominate the commerce Of
the Orient2 Just because she had the
bay and harbOr of Manila as 4 great
commercial and naval base. That base
can be just as useful to us commercially
as 1t was to Spain. For ten years every
strong European nation has been trying
to get a fOOthcld for commercial and
naval purposes in the far east. Through
the fortunes OF war the United States
obtained the best position possible, Civ
ing US superior commercial advantages
over the nations. What sort OF com
mon sense would it be for us to give up
such a position?
Would Be Shut Out.
Suppose we should dispose of the
Philippines and Japan should acquire
them. See how the islands stretch along
the coast. Here are the Philippines and
FOrmOsa. If Japan had them she could
command every gateway to the orient
and the United States would be COM
pletely shut out. Every one comedies
that the orient is the future great field
for the principal commercial operations
of the world. We ought to be the lead
ers, but we must at least have share
in the enterprise. and in order to do so
we must maintain the position we have
occupied. I think it Is plain that We must
have a commercial base such as Manila,
and then in order to protect our COM
meTce we must have naval base, and at
Subig bay such base is being devel-
ODed.
