ment Of retreat from the islands. printed
yesterday a dispatch from Manila setting
forth the practically universal rejection of
the proposal to sell the archipelago to the
islanders themselves. The natives shy from
the plan with the agility of burned children
from a stove. They point to their poverty
and 10 the lack of established leadership
Tavera. one of the best educated of the
Fiipinos who was member of Aguinal-
dos cabinet, cards the suggestion as a
joke. and pronounces 1t impossible ac-
count of the lack of funds and the internal
hatreds of the people. Lukban, an indie
pendence agitator and former instruction
chief, says the idea is foolish. His people,
he says. demand a republic Ike Cuba but
America must not retire too soon" Other
dissentients are quoted at some length, all
urging the point that the people are too poor
to think of undertaking the purchase of
the islands, An odd note is sounded by Lib
ertas. the organ of the frars, which says
that the noblest and most generous
cape from the difficulty''-of present gov
ernment-"would be TO return the islands to
SPAIN
There appears to be absolutely no sent-
Tnent in the islands in favor of the sale of
the archipelago to any other power. There
Is likewise no sentiment in favor of Agu-
naldo or his old party. All representatives
of the people insistent upon the diff
culties that would confront them if they
were to be intrusted with the adminstra-
ton of their affairs unaided. with tribal diff
ferences cutting across the path of progress
al every turn.
Nothing could more emphatically disclose
the necessity of continued American occu-
patton and administration than this showing
of Filipino rejection of the proposal to sell
the islands to them. There remains for the
advocates of withdrawal only the expedi-
ent to sell to another power. Japan? Ger
many? England? Where cou,d the United
States make a bargain that would not null
tiply its difficulties and cover it with dis
honor.
The withdrawal proposition has served it's
purpose of affording something to discuss
during the dull season. 1t is too Impractical.
too p1eposterous. viewed from any angle, to
continue longer as a serious theme.

Defective Rails.

1t is now generally accepted that defective
rails have been the cause of a large num-
Der of railroad accidents generally classed
as due to unavoidable causes. What was
previously mystery has been explained in
terms that have resulted in a demand on
the part of practically every railroad COM
pany for better rails Some weeks ago a
joint committee of experts was appointed
by the leading railroad corporations and
the steel manufacturers to agree upon
new type of rail calculated to withstand
the strain of heavy traffic. This committee,
it is now understood, has failed to agree
upon the chemical composition of the ideal
rail, and will report Thus there is
immediate prospect that the travelling pub
lie will be guaranteed safer track.
The railroads demand rail high in car
bon and low in phosphorus. Such a rail,
the manufacturers contend cannot be pro-
duced by the Bessemer process, now chiefly
employed in rail manufactures The open
hearth process will yield a w-phosphorus
rail, but owing to the lack of such plants
not more than 10 per cent of the rail ton
mage produced in the United States can be
manufactured on this bass. 1t will take
time, the manufacturers declare. to change
from Bessemer to open hearth conditions
and meanwhile the railroads must wait for
better metal.
There is one point of difference, however,
which does not rest upon the matter of
physical equipment to produce good rails.
One of the chief dangers in modern rails, it
is alleged by railroad men, is the tendency
of the manufacturers to use too much of
the original ingot in rolling rails. 1t is
necessary to trim off a part of the ingot to
rid it of the soft, imperfect metal that
gathers there in the casting If any por-
ton of this soft section is left it forms, in
rolling. a cone-shap ped core Of bad metal at
the end of the rail- thus weakening the
rail at the joint and leading, it is firmly
believed to many breaks, derailments and
consequent disasters. The railroad men de-
mand that at least p per cent of the ingot
be trimmed before rolling to make certain
that none of the soft metal is left. The
metal interests resist this demand and in
sist that 10 per cent is sufficient Micro
scopic examination of new rails is said to
have disclosed that the defective condition
exists in rails made from ingots trimmed on
the 10 per cent basis.
1t is to be hoped that the railroad COM
panies will insist upon better rails. Even
if they have to pay more for their metal
they must get it. The lives of passengers
are not 10 De hsHtiy lihpeIIleu through the
use OF possibly defective rails under heavy
traffic and high-speed conditions which de-
mand the most reliable metal that can pos
sibly be produced. If the railroads and
the manufacturers cannot get together by
agreement in this matter it will become
necessary for the state legislatures and
possibly Congress to take hand and es
tabIish a standard of manufacture which
will reduce the danger of the broken rail
TO a minimum.
