LARGE STEEL RAIL ORDER
Pennsylvania System Places
Order for 1911 Delivery.
Prospective Orders in Sight on Other
Lines Give Evidences of Pros
perity in Steel Industry.

New York. Nov. 30.-Wall street had
II officially from Philadelphia that the
Pennsylvania railroad has given it's
order for 10000 tons of steel rails
for 1911 delivery. The order, which
is considerably larger than had been
expected, was distributed among the
United States Steel corporation. the
Lackawanna Steel company, the Penn.
sylvania Steel company, the Cambria
Steel company and the Bethlehem
Steel company.
1t is said that the order does not
provide for all of the company's needs
for 1911. Later orders are expected
with. return Of better business. In
1910 the company at first ordered 140,.
900 tons. which amount was increased
to 100000 tons by follow up orders.
There was also some talk about a
100000 ton order from the New York
Central. Besides that road, the
Atchison, the st. Paul, the Lackawan.
ma. the New Haven and the Boston
and Maine have been for some time
calculating their 1911 orders. Orders
have already BEEN placed for the Erie,
the Norfolk and Western, the Lehigh
Valley and the Louisville to a total of
about 10000 tons.

FEDERAL TROOPS
KILLED IN BATTLE
Seven Slain and $50 Missing in
Clash Near chihuahua.
REBELS STRONGLY INTRENCHEO
Report Is Current That Mexican Gov.
eminent Has Kidnapped Francisco
Madero, but the Rumor Is
Not Believed to Be True.

FL Paso, Tex, Nov. 30.-Seven killed
and $50 missing is what happened to
the federal troops at Chihuahua, &C.
cording to W. H. Stanley of San Fran
cisco. MI. Stanley, who arrived here
on National railways train, said that
only seven were reported killed as the
result of the battle, but that when the
little soldiers of Porforio were counted
$50 were missing.
ID. S. Stewart, young Australian,
who has been employed on the Concha
river dam, also a passenger, said there
Is much bushwhacking where he was
employed, below Chihuahua.
HI has broken loose west of here"
was the declaration in a letter from
a prominent American in Chihuahua
Every man, woman and child from
Temosachi to Chihuahua, is up in
arms. The people in Chihuahua have
no idea how strong the insurrection-
lists are. It will take 1000 troops sixty
days to clean out the canyons, where
they are strongly entrenched, near
San Andreas. On Friday, IT'S soldiers
were sent out there and all but four Of
them were killed, when ambushed by
the insurrectos. They were on their
way to Guerrero. No trains have run
in from Minaca since Tuesday of last
week and none Is expected for a week.
There are Americans there, but none
of them have been moiested."
Writing of the battle, this man says:
prisoners have been brought in.
saw three of them marched through
the streets in nothing but their under
clothing, as if they had been captured
asleep in a house somewhere"
A letter from Pachua says there
has been fighting there, but that all is
quiet now. Reports are in circulation
here that the Mexican government kid
mapped Francisco Madero after he left
San Antonio and now has him in pris-
on in Mexico City, but it is believed
that such reports were circulated for
the purpose of working on the cred
uality of the ignorant, and in meas
ure stimulating interest in the revolt.
That the Mexican government is
looking for him was evidenced here.
Judge Louis Folk, Of Ysleta. Tex,
looks like Madero. His friends say
so, and he himself admits It, But
that is not all. The Mexican govern
ment inspectors think he resembles the
pretender to the Mexican chair.
Judge Folk. who Is justice of the
peace in the Texas town, is French
man by birth. His face is said to be
remarkably like that of the missing
Madero.

course, undesirable that the government

1t is to be hoped that before the flight
takes place the Importance Of this expert

dent to cause him to reconsider his de-
cision and permit the use of naval vessels
not otherwise employed. The denial OF

vent the undertaking, but it will indicate
lack of federal enterprise in matter
of vital concern to every progressive
power.

The District Budget.

Auditor Tweedale's recommendation
that the District appropriations be writ
ten in budgetary form has been adj
vanced and discussed already and COM
mends itself to the approval OF all who
are acquainted with the present condi-
tons affecting the finances OF the
National Capital. AS the auditor points
out, under the current practice estimates
for the maintenance of the District are
included in not only the District appro-
priation bill. but in the sundry civil.
the legislative. the public buildings and
other bills. some Of these estimates hav-
ing been submitted directly by the Dis
trict Commissioners and others by fed
eral officials. They are not considered
at one time. but are taken up by the
committees Of the House and Senate
separately in the order in which the bills
themselves are handled. 1t is impossible
at any time during a session Of Congress,
before the closing hours. to ascertain the
precise charge upon the Districts re-
sources in consequence Of the current
legislation.
The greatest advantage of a budgetary
arrangement of the District appropria.
lions would be the facility and certainty
Of allotting available funds to various
purposes. At present not even the Com
missioners themselves can be assured

The Government and the Airplane

The President has unfortunately per-
mitted precedent to prevent the participa-
ton by small vessels OF the navy in the
highly important experiment in marine
aviation which was originally planned
for today, but which has been postponed
on account OF the prevalence Of high
winds until the oath of this month. Under
the first plan two naval torpedo boats
were to accompany the aviator in his
flight from the deck Of a transatlantic
liner to the shore. to insure his safety.
BY presidential order this arrangement
has been Cancelled, and IL the flight is
undertaken as designed 1t will be neces-
sary to escort the airplane In its flieht
from ship to shore with private craft.
The government of the United States Is
directly concerned In this test 1t is today
seriously backward In the matter Of avia-
ton equipment, as noted by the chief
signal officer OF the army In his annual
report. 1t Is at this time dependent al
most entirely upon private enterprise in a
department Of possible military ac-
tivity in which three at least OF the
European powers are now we'll advanced.

The Naval Gun Foundry.

1t did not need Official assurance from
the Navy Department that Secretary
Meyer had no thought of including the
so-called Washington navy yard among
the establishments marked for abandon
ment as supernuous. AS a matter Of fact
the Washington yard has not been q
navy yard at all for a number of years.
IL is and has been for a long time man
ufacturing plant, gun foundry, the re-
moval of which to another site could
not be contemplated by any one CONVEX
SAINT with the conditions. The govern
ment's investment at the gun foundry is
heavy. 1t includes buildings and docks
and machinery. OF course. the machin-
cry could be moved to another site, but
1t would deteriorate heavily in the trans
fer and the government would lose an
immense sum of money in abandoning
structures which are exceptionally adapt
ed to the present purpose. The naval gun
foundry Is admirably located, being inn
mediately under the supervision OF the
naval authorities and possessing eXcep-
tional facilities for water transportation.
Its relationship to the naval proving
ground at Indian Head is such that the
removal of. the foundry would virtually
destroy the value of the other equipment,
which represents in itself large ex-
penditure. The gun foundry is susceptible
of practically indefinite enlargement at
no great expense. When the reclamation
work now I'm progress in the Eastern
branch is completed this establishment
will be one of the most effective and inn
pressive Of the visible expressions of the
governmental organization. 1t Is as per-
papepf as the Capitol and the Navy De-
partment building.

police, fire and health protection. how
much for engineering maintenance, how
much for administration. how much for
permanent improvements, how much for
financial charges. II the budget system
were adopted these totals, with their
relative Importance self-evident, would
show at glance.
In a large degree the present unsatis-
factory state of the local finances is due
to the loose, unscientific method OF fiscal
legislation as applied to the District.
The organic act of 1873 contemplated no
such scattering of appropriations. That
act provided that the Commissioners
should submit estimates and to the ex-
tent of their approval by Congress the
money should be appropriated, 90 per
cent by taxation upon local property and
the remainder by contribution from the
federal Treasury. Under this provision
Of law. which has never been repealed or
directly amended, a deficit would be inn
possible. likewise surplus. The Dis
trict would then in fact pay OH cash
basis for everything it did or acquired.
1t was never contemplated. however. by
the trainers of the organic act that the
District should not enjoy the benefits OF
a system of long-term repayments for
large permanent improvements costing
far in excess of the funds remaining
after the absolute necessities of munici-
pal life were provided.
That something should be done to cor
rect the present anomalous condition OF
the local finances is apparent to all who
are in the least degree familiar with the
Districts fiscal situation. Whether this
remedy takes the form Of the so-called
Judson plan or some other arrangement
designed to lay the burden of perma-
nent improvements in part upon the
shoulders of future taxpayers, 1t should
include a provision by act Of Congress
for the consolidation of the District APP
preparations into a single budget, whether
the actual enactments are carried IN one
bill or in several Congress should, for
it's own convenience. If 1t is not con-
cerned with the matter OF local equities.
put the financial legislation for the
National Capital upon business basis.
