The Illinois Steel Company has

over three months ago. Since Jan. 1 I
over 100 aolki train loads of rail* have I
beewaki pped from their mills. Thea*
have been chiefly destined for export. I
They have gone to nearly all the East- 1
era, Southern and Western coast ports

of freight could be secured.
Moat of the fortifications on this I

works at San Joan which Admiral I
Sampson shelled tbs other day, but
did not silence, were not as strong as I
our new fortifications are, and Admi- I
ral Sampson pounded them with guns I
bigger and better than the Spaniards I
have in their navy. We have the as-1
eorance, therefore, that we are behind
defenses which are able to afford real l
protection. I!
