John Law died in Wayne county on

children and one year later he added a
codicil in which he directed that $500
devised to one of his sons should be paid

picn for Diocesan Missions.


At the recent meeting of the board of
missions two resolutions We're unani-
mOusly adopted. in substance as follows !:
The first one instructed w. r. Butler as
secretary of the board Of missions to send
out mite chests as usual and request that
they be used for the I.enten offerings of
the children of the Sunday school, to be
devoted to diocesan missions. The second
one requested the bishop, on behalf of the
board of missions. to send a letter to
every minister in charge of work in this
diocese, telling them Of the great needs
of the missionary work of the diocese and
urging the Importance of giving the chill
dren's offerings of every Sunday school
in the diocese for the missionary work of
the diocese.
The records of the diocese show that
during the past two or three years an i'm
creasing number of Sunday schools have
been devoting the whole or a part of their
Lenten offerings to domestic missions in
stead of diocesan missions. The board of
missions does not desire to interfere with
offerings to domestic missions. but 1t does
desire to emphasize the important fact that
the diocese needs larger and more liberal
offerings for its own missionary work on

THE CHICAGO BUDGET.
An Alleged Violation of the Inter
state Commerce Act.

An Alleged Violation of the Inter-
state Commerce Act.
CHICAGO, Feb. 7.-Citations from
the interstate commerce commission to
appear at a special meeting of that
body in Chicago on February 20 have
been received by nearly every western
and southwestern road having rep
resentative in this city, the summons
setting forth that the matter under
consideration will be an alleged viola
ton of citation 4 of the act to regulate
commerce between the states by the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe and its
receivers and other roads.
This case is founded on the complaint
of Charles G. Freeman, a dealer in
produce at Cadillac, Mich. In his
charges he alleges he is unable to
compete with merchants in the same
line of business at Grand Rapids and
south Michigan points because Of the
discrimination of certain roads which
refuse him proportionately as good
rates to Texas as given the others.
His complaint names as respondents
the Santa Fe. the Rock Island, the
Kansas City, Fort Scott &, Memphis,
the Missouri Pacific, the Missouri,
Francisco, the st. Louis, Iron Noun
tain & Southern, the st. Louis South
western the Southern Pacific and the
Texas & Pacific Railway companies.
All these have been cited to appear
before the commission, as has also the
Indiana, Illinois & Iowa.
In their answer to the complaint, re-
spondent roads set forth that the
state OF Michigan is divided by them
for freight purposes by the Detroit,
Grand Rapids & Michigan road. North
Of this line lies what is known as De-
troit-Cleveland territory. From the
border Of this they admit they make a
through rate but declare cities in that
territory get only the sum of local
tariffs to the through rate basing
points. They claim the Detroit
Cleveland territory is under the SUI
pervision of the Central Traffic asso-
citation, with which they have no
traffic arrangements, and with the
tariffs with which they have nothing
to do. They also claim the rates from
Cadillac are influenced by the fact Of
the application Of both the official and
the western classifications, for which
they are not responsible.

WESTERN ASSOCIATION.
Representatives of the Utah-CoIo-
radO Lines in Chicago.

CHICAGO. Feb. 7.-Representatives
Of the Colorado-Utah lines have been
in session here today considering the
terms on which they will become mem
bers of the Western Passenger asso-
citation and put their business under
the jurisdiction of its Missouri
committee.
The Rio Grande Western. which has
been the great obstacle in the way Of a
settlement, has agreed to become a
member of the association on being
furnished proper guarantee that its in
terests will be properly protected by
its connections as against the compe-
tition of the Union Pacific. These
guarantees will be forthcoming. The
roads meet again tomorrow to fur
nish the details Of the agreement.
Relations between the Santa F'e and
the Colorado Midland road are strain
ed. Receiver Ristine of the latter has
been here for the past three days try
ing to make better terms for his road.
So far he has failed and now he threat
ems to break with the Santa Fe en-
tirely and throw all the traffic of the
Colorado Midland to the Denver ,S
Gulf. and over it to the Union Pacific.
The whole trouble arises from the
abrogation by the reorganization of the
Santa Fe of the traffic contract in eff
feet between the roads.

Methods of Warfare.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Feb. ALEX F.
Hamilton, formerly of this city, now
a captain of the Third division of the
insurgent army under General Garcia
in Cuba gave graphic review last
night of the methods of warfare in
Cuba's truggle for Independence. He
said:
Il think General Gomez will at
tempt to capture Havana. He will
bring up all his forces for a great at
tack and that will settle it, This will
be a difficult task and it should have
been done at nrst."
Are there many Americans in the
insurgent forces?'
Perhaps two-thirds of them are
Americans. a great many of whom
are southerners from New Orleans and
other cities of Louisiana"
"What truth is there in the reports
of depredations and assaults by insur-
gents?''
Unfortunately we have on our side
several bandits who are desperate
fighters. but unprincipled. Besides
this, there are about 400 Ohio f1libuster-
ers who seize anything they can lay
their hands on, no matter whether they
be. Spanish or Cuban forces"
'eWhat made General Garcia leave
his army?"
wen. he came over to the United
States for ammunition. He was in
Philadelphia two weeks ago, but by
this time will be back among his men
with Calling guns, sabres, etc. L my
self hope to be back in two or three
weeks with a few little things.
Il am convinced the insurgents will
never rest until they drive the Span
iards clean out of the island and Cuba
declares her independence under the
United States protectorate."
