 In part, he said that it IS now recognized that the B. Y. P. U. has become domesti- cated in Alabama. l was fully persuaded that the organization of the B. Y. P. U. was incapable of doing the church injury, as it is pledged to do all of it's work through existing denominational channels, and the !. object of the B. Y. P. U. was
 First-The unification of Baptist young people.
 Second-Their increased spirituality.
 Third-Their stimulation in Christian service.
 Fourth-Their edification in Scriptuarl knowledge.

 Its first pledge, therefore, is to the church.

 ''I thank God for the whole young peo- ples' movements, Christian Endeavor, Ep- worth League and Baptist Young Peoples union, and yet from the beginning l have been loyal to the Baptist Young Peoples union, because we need it; we need 1t to train our young people in demominational conventions, for that is great feature.
 The Young Mems Christian association IS a great institution but it has been handi- capped by the one fact-it is non-doc- trinal.

ROS WANTED TO
 HAVE HIS WAY

Santiago de Cuba, July 2S 1915 p. m.- Delayed in n.)-Major General Shafter sayslhe has not made certain state- ments attributed to him in an interview on the subject of the attitude assumed alleged trouble between himself and Senor Ros, the civil governor of Santiago, is a very small matter indeed
 Senor RoS is ruffied at General Shafter not allowing him complete control of the civil administration of the entire section of the province of Santiago de Cuba, which has been surrendered to the American forces. Senor Ros considers himself the supreme civil authority, passing his claims upon the state paper issued by President Mckinley on July IS, and providing in gen. eral terms for the government of the pro- vince of Santiago de Cuba, which contains the following clause: .The judges and other officials connected with the adminis- tration of justice may, if they accept the supremacy of the United States, continue to administer the ordinary law of the land as between man and man under the super Vision of the American commander-in- chief"
 Senor Ros, 1t is understood, resents Gen. eral Shafter's so-called interference with his duties. A little cloud arose over the fact that Senor Ros discharged three em- ployes and substituted for them three of his own friends The discharged employees complained to General Shafter, who ordered their reinstatement. Since then, Senor Ros has been slightly ruffied, but he is continuing to discharge his duties as Gen. eral Shafters subordinate.
 The trouble was really insignificant, but Senor Ros and his three friends being Gu bans, the matter was magnifed in their cir cles. Senor Ros simply obeyed General Shafter's orders without protest though he may have murmured behind his back.

 RECEIVING MONEY

London. July 29.-Denials of the allega- tions made by Ernest Terah Hooley, the company promoter, fin the bankruptcy court, continue to be published here.
