A committee Of Protestant clergymen
called on the SECRETARY Of war last
week to ask for the appointment Of
chaplains to the regiments which have
gone to the Philippine islands. but It
was found that Congress had not pro-
vided for them. The prelates of the
Catholic Church have asked for free
passage on the army transports for
several priests who have volunteered
to.give religious aid and comfort to the
troops in the field, but the secretary was
compelled to decline because he has no
authority to provide transportation for
persons outside the military service,
and the volunteers will have to 20 by
the regular passenger lines. These ap-
plications, however, have stirred up
the War Department to transfer all
the chaplains now doing post duty in
the United States to the field in the
Philippines, and with one accord they
ask to be excused. The only army
