gard to the basis of half-fare rates for
clergymen and railroad employees from
the Missouri river to Colorado common
points The ruling was called for by

has been that the basing rate should
be the highest regular first-class I'M
limited fare. BY some lines this rate
from Omaha to Colorado Springs is
S21.05; by others. s1S,15. while the linn
tied rate on all lines is SIT. To put all
the lines on an equality, the chairman
decided that the regular limited first
class rate Of SIT. which is the highest
rate common to all lines interested.
should be the basis for computing half
fares, unless the lines interested reach
some other agreement by themselves

st. Paul. Dec. 3l.-The following letter
was mailed in this city, a copy being
given TO the Associated Press:
st. Paul, Dec. S1.-Right Rev. S. C.
Messmer, Green Bay, Wis-Reverend
Sir: Your interview, dated Green Bay,
Wis, December &C. was reported in the
Chicago Tribune in regard to a decree
of the Roman church putting a ban
on the order of odd Fellows and Knights
of Pythias. is entitled to special con-
sideration from the fact that you offer
an argument in justification of the ban.
Your argument is stated as follows:
There had never been any objection to
Catholics belonging to lower degrees
of any of these secret societies. In those
degrees men are only banded together
for mutual benefit and pleasure, but in
the higher degrees, the principles and
teachings of these societies are distinct
ly anti-Christian and contrary to the
principles Of the Catholic church If the
lower lodges were separated from the
higher circles of these orders no objec-
ton would be made to them, but as all
are part of the same organization they
must all come under the ban.
Your words. right reverend sir, are
! clear and explicit and if your argument
/ can be sustained they explain fully the
ban placed on these societies by the
pope But I deny that charge you make
against the order of Knights Of Pythias
and l publicly challenge you to prove
your assertion. You owe this to the
American public, to your own church
and in a special manner to the societies
on which your accusation falls.
My demands, made with the greatest
! ha a
a radical difference exists as to the
principle and purposes between the low
er and higher degrees of the Knights of
Pythias-a difference such as to make
the higher degrees worthy of condemna-
ton while the lower are innocent.
Second. that you prove in those high
er degrees that the teachings of those
societies are distinctly anti-Christian
and contrary to the principles Of the
Catholic church.
II may add that, though begging q
reply to all these points, L hope you will
give special attention to your charg'
that the higher degrees are anti-Chris
tian a charge which certainly SHOULD
not be made lightly.
LAS your interview was given to tn
public press, I consider it my privileg
and duty to give this reply the sam
publicity. Respectfully,
J. e. HILSCHER,
Grand Chancellor K. of p. of Minnesota

Wilkesbar Penn, Dec. 31-Ex-
United States Senator Thomas c. Plat
of New York who is here visiting rela-
tives, in an interview with a reporter of
the Associated Press tonight discussed
Rev. DR.. Parkhurst and his methods
without reserve. Il am opposed to Park
hurst" said he, because did not think
his methods practical and because
looked upon his schemes as being vision
airy. His idea of a oneheaded police force
is simply absurd and would put in the
hands of the man at the head of that
department a power that he might use
to the great disadvantage of the force.
His intentions are sincere, but they are
visionary and therefore of no use. He
has done a great deal of good, but
believe his head is swollen by the flat
terry of New York papers. His ideas re-
garding the suppression of crime are
no longer suggestions, but orders He
is continually saying must and TO this
practical men not only take exception
but criticize it harshly."
Referring to the resignation of Super
intendent Byrnes, Plat said: Il do
not believe Mayor Strong will accept
it. Byrnes is too valuable a man to
lose and when the department is re-
organized he will be at the head of it,
