CHILE TO ELECTRIFY
RAILWAY SYSTEM
Government Authorizes Credit

SPECIAL cable Despatch 10 TnI srx.

SPECIAL cable Despatch 20 TnE Sun
SANTIAGO. Chile. May 4.-The Govern
ment has authorized credit for the
electritication OF large part of the
railway system of the country. In the
opinion of technical experts this is
project OF major Importance, which will
put the Chilean railways in a position
OF advantage over all others of South
America, not excepting the Argentine.
There has been much comment on the
notice in New York papers that Chile
had induced Mexico to reject officially
the Monroe Doctrine. 1t is to be re-
membered that the Mexican Government
is at liberty to think as it pleases. and
that certainly the Government of Chile
is one too dignified ever to involve it,
self in petty intrigues. In case Chile
or any other country sounded Mexican
Governmental opinion in that respect,
that would be nothing of interest within
the most upright diplomacy. This at
tempt to present Chile as a disturber
of the continental harmony Is attributed
TO enemies, but no Importance is given
to the matter.
1t is said in semi official circles that
negotiations pending with England are
recovery OF the ships which were coded
TO England at the outbreak OF the war
! But It is more probable that the con-
struction OF even more modern ships
will be ordered. The warships coded, ac-
cording to the contract, were the AL
mirante Latorre OF $4,000 tons and the
Almirante Cochrane of the same tom
mage. In addition there are several
smaller ships. The Government and
Chilean public opinion manifest a reso-
| luton to follow the example OF the
United States and England, that Is 70
maintain high potential military and
| naval strength in order to keep an eff
| fecttve peace in the southern extremity
OF America. Chile as one of the signers
OF the League OF Nations desires "a
contribute with her relative forces TO
! the establishment OF justice.
There has arrived NJ Valparaiso a
ship bringing a library OF 5000 volumes
| from the United States OF books selected
from among North American authors, a
gift OF the Carnegie Institute to the
National Library OF Chile. II is possible
that this large number of books will
not be incorporated into the library until
| the magnificent new building is COM
| pleted. which has been in the course
of construction for the last four years
and will be- when completed. one of the
architectural beauties of Santiago.

CHILEAN WOMEN
EAGER TO ADVANCE
Many Come to This Country
for instruction Along
Various Lines.
BY GRACIELA MANDUJANO

Specially toritten for the La III Anleri-
eau Section Of THE Sun.
Not only in the old and WORKOUT
countries but also in the young and
wealthy countries of South America an
upset and needy world is imposing. more
heavily each day. its demands upon

Nay. the women have taken the step
with sense of relief. IT was not al
ways either pleasant or easy to endure
patiently and passively the hardships
and privations to which they were sub
jected whenever the men of the family
were not able to fulfil their self-im-
posed duties Of wage earneEs and only
purveyors OF all their wants and lux
uries.
Consciously or unconsciously the
women Of Chile heard the imperative
call OF modern life and their answer has
been a far reaching movement in order
to prepare themselves for civic activi-
ties other than the practice of charity.
With broader purpose and intensi-
| fled enthusiasm women iocked to
schools, colleges and universities, where
they have always found an open door
and an encouraging reception. with the
result that in every branch OF science
and art women have now worthy rep
resentatives, while hundreds of thou
| sands are consecrating their efforts to
industrial and economic activities.
Their participation has not YET
reached the point whore II will produce
feminist movements. But, vindictive
| violent agitations need never be pro-
duced.
| 1t is true that numberless women suf-
fer the effects OF poor working condi-
lions and inadequate legislation; that
during the day lack recreation and COM
fort--perhaps nourishing food. The
problem, nevertheless, has not be ig'
nored.
| A progressive Government, the Gov
eminent OF Chile has recognized the
situation and Is not waiting until the
evils OF the present have Influenced
physically, intellectually and morally
the generation OF tomorrow to remedy
It. And as there Is no need at pres
ent OF learning through trials and fall
ures, for II rs possible to pront by oui
neighbours experiences, the Government
is encouraging women and men tc
study ways and means employed in those
countries that have undergone similar
development
1t Is thus that scores OF Chilean
women are at present in the United
States with a definite purpose in view
Some of them will go back after hav-
ing lived and struggled among the people
of this country, to interpret the Gus
toms through its language and litera'

TONS Before the war Chile was an
important consumer OF goods OF foreign
manufacture. which she will continue to
be on a large scale.
Some Things Chile Needs.
She needs coal because the national
mines do not produce sufficient for home
needs; pine, oak and other woods not
to DO found in that country; sugar. the
entire quantity grown is consumed there
as 1t Is probable none will be imported
from Peru as heretofore eatabie and
lutricating oils; all kinds OF thread and
cloth appropriate for cold. temperate
and warm climates. the country counting
the three in its different regions; CO.
ment and Industrial rosin. coloring ma
terials. drugs and chemicals. perfumes,
paints. furs for wraps and trimmings,
shoes OF high quality. the country pro-
ducing its own shoes OF cheaper grade.
An item Of interest in the Chilean
consumption is the iron and steel. Chile
has the largest iron deposits In the
world. but the smelling industry is still
In its infancy and the country needs to
purchase outside OF the country to fill
her needs OF this material.
THE question OF purchase OF railroad
supplies in all its phases can be appre-
ciated when It 10 said that Just now
the State Railways are working on a
programme OF purchases amounting to
$50 900. 900 of mining machinery. agri-
cultural machinery. machinery and
hardware for the manufacturing In
dustry: motors. boilers and supplies and
electrical material OF all classes.
Has Good Water Power.
There is a great future for the latter
class of material in Chile, where numer.
| GUS hydraulic electrical works are being
planned. Chile Is one of the countries
having great potential water power. due
to the Andes mountain range bordering
the east side of the country. The Andes
, are to Chile what the Alps are to Swift
| zerland and the Apennines to Italy.
The development of the urban and
| suburban trolley lines is another Ques-
ton which greatly occupies the mind OF
the Chileans. Material and equipment

can be assured with complete certainty
is that the Chilean uses and understand

The readers of THE Sun already have

by the reports of the Department OF

spirit of work and peace reigning there
assure the foreigner of the successful
issue Of any enterprise.
Another report OF the Department of
Commerce of the United States estao-
fishes the fact that Chile enjoys good
credit with the fnanciers and bankers
of Europe and North America because
she has never failed to fulfil any obliga-
ton during the century that credit has
been extended to her. This recognized
reliability allows her to make loans In
the money market upon the best terms
possible and at a satisfactory rate OF
| interest.
To meet the interest on her foreign
debt Chile uses only 10 per cent OF her
revenue, and. what Ia most important

any debt. All the loans are OF the
same nature, 30 that there Is no problem
to be studied with respect to the public

deserved the confidence OF the foreigner

Consequently l believe you will look
favorably on this letter, the object Of
which Is to furnish certain data con-
corning Ecuador that wish may enable
you TO make proper corrections in new
edition OF the book.
On page 246 is a table of the nations
and possessions lying in this continent,
with their population figures. There
Ecuador appears with 100000 in
habltants-
It Is true that no general census OF
the republic has ever been taken-eight
other republics have also failed to do
njs-but from the partial counts in the
several provinces, the historian Pedro
Fermin Cevallos, a commonly recognized
authority. reached the total figure of
1.272,161- inhabitants in the year 1889.
The official reports for 1900 gave a total
of 100000. Considering the rate Of
population increase approved by such
authorities as Newsholme, Bertillion.
&C., It is not far fetched to suppose that
the population OF Ecuador has increased
In nineteen years UP to nearly 1000. 900.
No scientific work known to me allots
Ecuador less than 100000, and this
referring to the year of the Paris Uni
vereal Exposition, 1900. Even the En-
cvclopdedia Britdhnica, 50 averse to
svery exaggeration. registers this figure.
The Statesmdn's Year Book, another re-
liable publication. since every year It
collects its data from the best sources,
through the British legations and con-
sulates in the whole world. gives
Ecuador a population Of 100000.
Moreover. as a contributor to the Pan
American Union, Ecuador was assigned
the quota corresponding to popula-
ton OF 100000.

Facts About Railway Dispute.

The differences between the Govern
ment and the railway company. which
differences represent to Ecuador a much
greater value than the three years In
terest on the bonds guaranteed by the
Government. might offer a decent ground
for suspension of payments. the Gov
eminent availing itself OF the rights the
civil law confers upon guarantors as
against the principal debtor; but, far
from that, the Ecuadorian Government
has paid religiously, even in times when
the most prosperous peoples had sus-
pended payments 1t happened that
public order had to be reesta blished,
which is a vital obligation TO every
government, and such necessity forced
Ecuador temporarily to suspend pay
ments. Nevertheless as soon as the in
ternal order was restored and the
finances OF the country became regular
Ecuador even amid the distressful crisis
Of the universal war resumed the pay
ment OF interest in fulflment, repeat,
of the guaranty of obligations incurred
by an American company.
To-day Ecuador fulfils its foreign en-
gagements. 1t knows that this is the
only thing that counts for the prestige
OF credit before the world. It knows
that in the opinion OF the creditor
capitalists. countries are divided into
two categories only-those that pay the
coupon and those that do not It knows
that justice and right go for naugh,
before the cold demands OF the coupon

one is punctual in the payment of the
coupon.
