The best opinions do not credit the reports that the Boers are suing for Pcace, or that they are likely to yield at present, though they think the Boers will probably retreat to their line of defense in the mountain passes of La ing's Nek and Drakemburg, where they have blocked the passes with great powders and masses of rock blown up on either side, and where, if they so desire, they would be able to hold out until the advance of Mai.

PROTECTION FOR THE CENSUS
REFoRMERS WOULD SHUT OUT
THE SPoILSMEN.
Arguments In Favor of Selecting the
Apprentices Through the Civil
Service Commission.

Washington, jan 14.-Representa-
tives of the civil service league appear
ed before the house census committee
today and argued against any bill
which contemplated having the ap-
pointments made outside of the civil
service, MIR. F. L. Siddon made the first
address. He insisted that the civil ser
vice commission would have eligibleS
sufficient to make all the appointments
wanted in Washington. He said that
the supervisors should be selected by
competitive examination. under the di
rectiOn of the civil service commission.
He did not think it would be practical
bic to have enumeratorS so selected, for
supervisors, under the protection of
civil service, would select the enumer
ators without regard to political con-
siderations and solely with a view to
their ability. The clerks in Washing
ton should also be under the civil SER
vice.
Mr. Reynolds of Baltimore, who fol-
lowed, said that the appointments. un-
less placed under civil service, would be
practically made by senator's and rep
resentatiVes, and supervisors so select
ed would make appointments of emu
meratoTs under the direction of the SEM
atOrs and representatives He did not
think it would be of any advantage to
have appointments made from both
parties under a bipartisan system, as
there would still be politics brought in,
TO the detriment-of the service.
Scarcely any one has a good word
for the last census he said. More
complaints We're made of the last CEN
sus than of any previous census. The
general complaint was that the men
employed were not Efficient
Mr.. Heatwole asked if the complaints
could not be traced to poor pay, and
MI Reynolds said he thought not, be-
cause there We're few complaints of pre-
vious censuses, and he supposed there
was not much difference in the pay of
the last and other censuses.

SUBSIDIES FOR STEAMSHIPS
OWNERS. OF VESSELS ADVOCATE
THE BOUNTY.
Insist That Merchant Vessels Cannot
BE Built As Cheaply In the United
States As In England.

Washington. Jan. 1.-THE senate
committee on commerce continued the
hearing on the Hanna-Payne subsidy
dill Charles II. h pg. secretary of the
Lake Carriers association, and Theo
dore Zarch, president of the American
Manufacturers association. spoke in IA
vor of the bill.
Clement Griscom. president of the
International Navigation company, also
advocated the bill He gave the details
OF the organization o. the COMPANY
and its transfer from Belgium to tn
United States and the building of the
st. Louis and the St. Paul These yes
sells would have cost S1,100,000 less in
Great Britain than in the United States.
Interest and Insurance charges were
also much higher in this country than
in England The $3.50, 600 received annu-
ally from the government for carrying
the mails lacked $4,000 of meeting
the extra expense involved in carrying
the American flag. The company had
made a living, but it was evident that
it could not continue under the cir
cumstances and would have to quit
when the present vessels were worn
out. The company nc not declared
dividend, and it was evident that I'M
der the circumstances no more Ameri-
can ships could be built He thought
nothing would restore American ship
ping except a system that would re-
duce the cost of construction and the
operation of steamers. The passage of
the pending bill would relieve the stu
alton and if it should become a law. his
company would build four more 14000-
ton ships within the next five years and
enter into contracts for as many more
not to be completed within that period.
Senator EilIins asked if the bill would
50 equaliZe the conditions as to put the
United States on an equal footing with
Great Britain, and Mr.. Griscom replied
that after giving the question careful
attention he had reached the cOnclu-
sion that ii would. He thought the
United States could win if not too
heavily Handicapped. Replying to other
questions from Mr.. Ell1inS he expressed
the opinion that for the present Eng
land would not increase her subsidies.
Mr.. Ell1ins also questioned Mr.. Girls
com as to the prOpriety Of a tax on
the tonnage of British ships equal TO
the tax imposed by Great Britain on
American ships. Mr.. Griscom said he
favored such a measure, but he hoped
there would be no effort to put it on
the pending bill He said that there
was no time within the last twenty
years that such legislation would not
have been advisable and that it was
"idiotic folly" not to enact it. This
statement brought from Senator Frye
the remark that il would have been Sc
cured except for the opposition of the
steamship companies. L know" he
said, "of one instance in which a man
who never, under ordinary circum-
stances attended the early sessions of
the senate, sat through the morning
hour every day for four months in or
der to prevent a measure of this kind
from coming UP in the morning hour"

POSITION OF THE CHURCH.
Priests Must Look to Their Parish
toner's For Support.

Havana, Jan. 1.-THE bishop of Ha-
vana, recognizing that under Ameri-
can military rule the church cannot be
supported out of the public revenues
issued a circular letter today to the
chiefs of the different parishes, direct
ing that the church hereafter be main
tanned by private contributions The
church is rich in Havana and poor in
other parts of the island The religious
orders, especially those occupying the
converts, are wealthy but the parishes
in the interior are poor.
The bishop alluded in his circular to
the political revolution, and the
changes in the position of the church
and the priests, who have no one to
help them, except members of the
church. Therefore, he said, the priests
must impress upon their parishioners
the necessity of making contributions
He also urged them to use prudence,
pointing out that aims are pure neces-
sity, and not to insist upon too much
or unduly press the parishioners. The
bishop appreciates the generosity of
the Cuban people, understands their
poverty, and suggests that the priests
address themselves first to the wealthy
He also suggests renting seats in the.
churches at 3, 10 and Is cents, and the
establishment of boxes for voluntary
contributions. The bishop further adj
vises the appointment of parish col
lectors.
The Catholic clergy, foreseeing for
months past the coming position of the
church, has adapted itself to the pres
ent conditions. The bishop has not
asked General Brooke to aid the
church, or to maintain the former sys-
TEN. Finally, the bishop of Havana
announces that an apostolic delegate
is expected here.
The municipal government takes pos
session Of the offices and records and
assumes authority at noon today.

WHOLE FAMILY DROWNED.
Loss of Life Caused By the Kentucky
Floods.

Harodsburg, KY, Jan. 14.-Daniel
Jennings, a tobacco-grower, and his
son, Samuel. were drowned in Cedar
Run, near Curdsville, yesterday. Jen-
nings and his son were trying to save
some tobacco from a basin near the
overlooking creek, which was very high
and swift, owing to heavy rains. No
one witnessed the accident, but it is
generally supposed that the boy first
fell into the stream, and the father, in
attempting to rescue him, lost his own
life.
Yesterdays accident wipes out the
entire family by drowning, as Jennings
wife and two daughters were drowned
in the Kentucky river some months
ago.
