Cuba| being nearer to Spain and nearer to the big markets of the world, is bet- ter known, The Philippine Islands, which are 400 in number, have an area of 114- 000 sq ‘are miles and a population of 7,000,000. Some conception of their commercial. value may be gleaned from the fact that their esti mated revenue in 1894-95 was £2,- 715,980, while the imports were val- ued at $28,530,000 and the exports ‘@t $83,250,000. The chief exports in 1895. were 832,322 bales of hemp, 230,083 tons of sugar, 20 quintals of tobacco leaf and 164, 000 cigal There are 720 miles of telegraph and seventy miles of rail- way in the islands. The seizure of the islands wonld be & most important strategical move on the part of this country. It would deprive Spain of any base of supplies atall in the Pacific ocean and would puta stop to any further hostilities there. From a commercial standpoint these islands would be most valuable tothe United States, much more so in fact than Cuba, The soil is rich and versatile in its productiveness, Yielding evrything from the coffee, | suger cave, tobacco, cotton and rice of the tropics to the potatoes, whes | hemp and corn of more northera cli- mates, Gold mining is being carried on 19 Luzon with favorable prospects, lery consists of twelve batteries of six guns each, and ihat a regiment of cavalry is composed of twelve troops, two or more of which form a squad ron.

That ship of war was destroyed in the great river of the same name, but only after a big fight. The present commander of the Asiatic squadron was the last to leave the ship, Ad- miral Porter, commenting on this in- cident, said: “It is in such trying moments that men show of what met- al they are made, and in this instance the metal was the best."
