In view of this fact it is worth while to examine its
provisions and to inquire into the purpose ol the
measure. The bill embodies a plan, based largely
upon the policy of Secretary Shaw last fall, to meet
the business necessities of the country at a time of
stringency in the money uiarbet by liberating the
government funds that are locked up in the sub-treasuries.

race to hinder its entry into the higher regions of
thought, and the Rockefeller Institute will help
toward this end in one field as the Carnegie Institu

The Manilla dispatch of Feb. 22, returns to the use
of "lad rones." This is the orthodox word common to
official rejKirts, but there have been gome Blips in the
press reports recently. There was one engagement
with '"ir.surgents" and another with "hostiles" which
is reinii.incent of our Indian wars
"Whatever the queer creatures thus designated really
are it i astonishing to learn that tbey are operating
near the capital. "The enemy surrounded the towns
of Cainta and Taytay, eleven miles east of Manilla,
n Saturday and captured thirty scouts and ten men
of the constabulary, whom they disarmed and set
free." At their head was a Fra Diavolo who is called
General San Miguel, and it is said that the General

Canals ani Railroad Freight Rates
In a speech which he delivered at the annual din
ner of the Arkwright Club in New York Saturday
President Stuyvesant Fish of the Illinois Central
Railroad opposed the improvement of the Krie Canal
and referred slightingly to the Illinois and Michigan
Canal. The latter should certainly he abandoned for
the more promising substitute which Chicago has pro
vided, but in this matter Mr. Fish's judgment is too
evidently affected by his associations. He speaks as
a railroad man, and it is well known that even dead
water ways have a restraining influence upon railroad
freight rates.
Take for example the Illinois and Michigan Canal,
which Mr. Fish says cost the state $100,000 a year(
and consider it in conjunction with the Illinois River.
Practically no commerce is taken along the former,
and the latter is traversed by but a few pitiful flat
bottomed boats. Despite this fact these two water
I ways exert a powerful influence on freight rates, more

This is evidenced by the fact that when the rivef
closes in winter distance tariffs in central Illinois are
increased very materially.
