DELEGATE CHAPELLE
Confers With Hay on Catholic Church
Matters

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9-Archbishop
Chapelle of New Orleans, the lately appoint,
ed apostolic delegate to Cuba and
Porto Rico, made lengthy visit to the
State Department and conferred with Sec
retary Hay on the future of the religious
holdings of those islands. Monsignor
Chapelle caused much surprise among the
church people here by announcing to the
State Department officials that his mission
included the Philippines as well as the
Spanish West Indies. Monsgnor Chapelle's
mission is to prepare the hierarchy of Cuba
and the Philippines for the change incident
to the downfall of the Spanish sovereignty.
Before leaving Rome he was especially ad-
vised to take no radical steps in his new
work without the fullest consent and ap-
prova of his colleagues in American hier-
archy.
The archbishop will leave at once for a
short visit to New Orleans, but will return
to Washington before leaving the country.

sleeves and carrying his coat and vest in his

Eaton's Little Reuuisition


On the books of the city clerk there is
requisiton drawn in favor of Fred Eaton.
Republican candidate for mayor, for the
sum of $50 for services rendered the city
before the water supply committee of the
council.
1t seems that Mr. Eaton, Mr.. Schuy-
Ter and City Engineer Dockweiler, were
called before that committee one night to
testify as to whether in their opinion The
city had water enough to supply its wants
without the Crystal Springs water. 1t
came up because of the arbitration matter,
the city not deeming it advisable to go on
with the arbitration matter and be COM
PEELED to purchase the City Water COM
pany's pipe line if they. did not have water
enough to supply the city without pur-
chasing the Crystal Springs plant, which the
water company claimed did mot come within
the contract calling for arbitration.
Messrs. Eaton, Schuyler and Dockweiler
showed the committee that the city had
water enough then for its needs. They
were before the committee for about one
and onehalf hours. When the requisitions
for payment for services rendered were re-
ported to the finance committee it was
found that Messrs Eaton and Schuyler had
charged the city 500 each for that one and
one-half hours work. The finance commit
tee referred them back to the water COM
mittee for endorsement, but the water COM
mittee would not endorse, and there the
matter stood Finally City Attorney Dunn
came before the committee and informed
them that the gentlemen would take $50
each and call it square. The acquisitions
were then allowed for that amount The
finance committee held up the requisiton
because they considered the demand an ex-
orbitant one in view of the fact that tho
consulting engineers had been allowed $25
per diem during the time they had been
employed by the city in the arbitration mat
ter.
In view Of the fact that Mr. Eaton, in his
speeches, has said that he had given up
several good offers to serve the water COM
pany in order that he might serve the city,
this transaction is, to say the least, peculiar.
He was not working for the city, but was
| trying to work it.

THE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
The Second Concert Well Attended
Good Work Done

Judging from the fine audience at the Los
Angeles theater yesterday afternoon, at the
Symphony orchestra's second concert of the
season, the musically inclined people of the
community intend to redeem themselves
from the invidious reputation that they were
gaining from the lack of appreciation of the
best efforts Substantial encouragement is
absolutely necessary if the valuable work
that Mr. Hamilton's orchestra has com
menced is tc be continued and it was graft
fving to see such very much improved audi
ence yesterday.
The work of the orchestra in the ambitious
program presented was entirely commend
able. The improvement in the bassoons and
French horns was very marked The strings
were more especially good in the number sub
stituted in the place of the Proch theme and
variations They played "The Mill" by Gil
let and for an encore gave 'Babillage" by the
same composer Miss Mollie Adelia Brown
was unfortunately unable to fill her engage
ment on account of illness. Her absence was
much regretted as the soprano had shown
excellent work at the rehearsals and her
voice is admirably suited to an aria of that
style.
The work of the orchestra was especially

SAN PEDRO, Nov 29.--The bright pros
poets of at last getting to work on the har-
Dor breakwater have had a wonderfully
stimulating effect on the spirits and energies
of the people of this seaport. The chamber
of commerce is composed of wideawake, en-
ergetic and progressive citizens, and they
have taken hold with will, and it will not
be their fault if well-directed efforts actively
pushed do not put San Pedro well to the
front of coast cities.
4 large meeting of the chamber was held
Monday night and the harbor and other pro
posed city improvements were thoroughly
discussed. The following resolution, look
ing to the annexation of new territory, was
passed unanimously:

view of annexing the same to the city
