the process by which the ice is produced.

through coke and a charcoal filter appara-

An American Poperwarns the Arch

Manila, July PA Filipino priest
named GregoTie Agripay, with the in
surgents, is trying to lead a movement
for the independence OF the church in
the Philippines from the Spanish
priesthood. He has issued a proclama-
tion declaring himself the vicar gen.
eral of all the Filipino priests in the
districts outside OF American control
on the Island OF Luzon, and Is melting
the priests to disobey the regulations
of the church and brotherhoods. The
archbishop OF the district has issued
bull communicating Agripay, and
this action has increased the feeling
between the Filipinos and the church.
The archbishop threatened 70 eXcom-
municate the owners of Spanish pa

upon an American paper warned him
that he might be bundled out of the

Philadelphia Physicians Refuse to Is

Philadelphia, July 24.-The police Of
this city and physicians of st. Joseph's
hospital are mystifyed over the sud-

aged 5S years, and his wife Katherine,
aged 90 years. The couple lived in
rooms at No. 1872 Oxford street. Last
Thursday Bueggerman complained of
pains in the stomach, and a physician

him. On Saturday Mrs. Bueggerman

several theories, among them being
starvation and poisoning. The ply
sicians refuse to issue a death certif-
cate, and the coroner will make an in
