In favor of bill so hostile to American in
terests that the government will probably
refuse to sanction it. The most unfortunate
ests. was the fact that there was insistent
declarations in the United States that en-
balmed and poisonous meats had been sup

Of the German land-owning interests loudly
declared that if the Americans sent poison

certainly send 1t to the Germans. A bad re-

Germany. The bill, as remodeled by the
Reichstag committee, also proposes to ex-
clude from importations hams, hard and
soft sausages and choppedkneats and pre-
scribes that fresh meats must come in whole
careasses or. continuous parts.
The United States embassy and the Ger
man government still hope that the better
counsels will prevail when the bill comes
up for discussion In the open Reichstag on
it's second reading, though the chances for
the enactment Of the government measure
are very slim.

Causes Grave Apprehension.

WASHINGTON, May S.-The Berlin cable
indicating the failure of the proposed legis-
lation for the abatement of the restrictions
upon the importation into Germany of
American meat products was received here
with grave apprehension. 1t is beginning to
suggest itself to the officials that however
we'll disposed towards fair treatment of
American meats, the German government
will be unable to command the necessary
strength in the Reichstag tc correct the dis
ordinations from which our meats have
suffered SO long. The results of the failures
Of the meat bill are likely to be much
broader than are commonly supposed. for
1t may be stated that our government re-
CARDS the projected relief of our meat from
oppressive discrimination as an absolute es-
sential to the negotiation of any sort of
reciprocal arrangement, either under the
terms of the Dingley act or under the gen.
eral authorization to make trade treaties.
Therefore, it is expected that the negotia-
tions which have progressed off and on dur
ing the past few months looking to the max
ing Of a reciprocity arrangement, will be
practically suspended pending favorable ac-
ton by the German government on the meat
inspection bill.

PLOW MAKERS COMBINE.
VIII Have a capitalization of Over
Sixty-Fiye Millions.

CHICAGO. May Representatives of
more than a score of the leading plow man
ufacturing concerns of the United States
met to-day and virtually completed the or
ganization of combination into which it
is proposed ultimately to take all manu-
facturers of agricultural implements. Com
mittees OF the temporary organization,
formed some time ago, have been at work
upon the matter in New York and else
where. The capitalization of the new COM
bination is placed at over s65,00O,0OO. The
greatest secrecy was maintained regarding
the proceedings. The committee meetings
held here during the middle OF April had
representatives from nearly every manu-
featuring concern in the West. 1t is under
stood that c. II. Deere was elected presi-
dent of the combination.
The large capitalization of the new cor
poration is said not TO be in excess Of the
value of the plants included in the plan.
Much of the capital is tied up in patterns.
dies and special machinery. The estimated
valuation placed on this kind of property
is said to exceed s3O.0OO.0oO and. it is said.
that it might easily run up to s45,0O0,000.

Disposition OF American Troops Ex-
planned by General Otis.

WASHINGTON. May s.-The War De-
partment has received from General Otis a
dispatch giving the situation in the Phil
ippines. some parts Of which have been
omitted by the War Department in making
Il public. The dispatch follows:
The situation b as follows: Lawton is
at Maasin and Balinag. with scouting par
ties to north and east. Macarthur Is at San
Fernando. Population Of country
between Manila and northern points held
by troops returning TO homes; appear cheer
full and contented. Army gunbcats operat-
ing In rivers. Have cleared country west OF
Macarthur CT insurgents. Signs or
insurgents weakness more APPARENT daily"
The War Department ohlcials seem TO be
even more encouraged over the conditions in
Manila The report of Gen. Otis received
to-day indicates that the American troops
ara well disposed. II has been evident that
the insurgents which were operating
In the swamps and jungles east of General
Macarthur have been very annoying. but
the army gunboats have made IL too hot
for them TO remain. General Lawton ap-
pears 10 be pushing northward some fifteen
miles to the east OF Macarthur. The Rio
Grande river lies between them and there
the gunboats evidently at work. The
portions OF the dispatch which the depart
ment has not made public perhaps refer to
the future movements OF the two divisions
of the army.

TRIAL OF EXTREME RITUALISTS.
English Church Clergymen Charged
with Using Incense and Lights.

LONDON. May S.-An important stage in
the ritualistic controversy opened to-day
when the Rt. Hon. and Most Rev. Frederick
Temple, archbishop of Canterbury and
primate of all England, and the Rt. Hon.
and Most Rev. William Dalrymple Mac
Lagan, archbishop of York, sitting as a
self-constituted tribunal, began a hearing
of the charges against the Rev. Henry
Westall vicar Of st. Cuthberts. Philbeach
Gardens of the ceremonial use of incense
and lights, and the Rev. Edwaod Ram.
vicar of the Church of st. John, Timber
hill, Norwich, on the charge of ceremonial
use of incense. Messrs. Westall and Ram
will have the assistance in the ecclesiastical
trial of a number of experts on the ques-
ton of the ritual. including the Rev. r. r.
Percival rector of the Church of the
Evangelists in Philadelphia The decision
of the archbishops will not lie binding, ex-
cept as to the conscience, upon any one,
nor will 1t be enforceable, but naturally it
will have immense moral weight. The chief
purpose of this archepiscopal inquiry Is to
avoid reference to the secular courts. A
large assemblage of bishops and we'll
known clergymen were present in the his
toric guardroom of Lambeth Palace when
the archbishop of Canterbury opened the
proceedings with an explanation of the
nature Of the hearing. Arguments Of coun-
sci on both sides followed.

MANILA, May s.-The Filipinos surprised
the United States forces at San Fernando
with a daring trick yesterday. A railway
train with an engine at each end was run
almost to the American outposts and in
plain sight OF the town. Before they could
be reached gang of natives sprang on
the train, tore up several lengths OF the
railway track, boarded the train again and
steamed away so quickly that there was no
opportunity to capture the raiders
The army gunboats Laguna de Bay and
Cavadorga, under command OF Captain
Grant. which started up the San Fernando
river for Guagua on yesterday, as was pre-
sumed to establish there base of supplies
for the troops engaged in the northern cam
paign, returned to-day, Major General Mac
Arthur having failed to connect with the ex-
pedition- The gunboats found rebels en-
trenched at Sosmoang and Guagua ON the
water fronts OF the towns. The vessels
steamed past the works. shelling the occu-
pants and driving them out. Landing par
ties from the boats entered beth towns cap
turing at SosmoaDg a Spanish captain in
uniform who was ostensibly a prisoner in
the hands OF the rebels, and also a native
officer. Arriving at Guagua the town and
a small gunboat were found 10 be burning
and the natives were evacuating the place
In consequence OF the bombardment. AT
Sosmoang The landing party captured a
number OF filipino flags and quantity Of
arms. chiefly bolos and bows and arrows,
besides Lot OF band instruments, which
the men played as they marched back to
the boats. Captain Grants expedition will
probably return up the San Fernando river
after having been reinforced, on recently
purchased light draft Spanish steamers.
The Nebaska regiment is asking for a
temporary relief from duty. Only S75 men
of this regiment are left at the front.
