NO STRIKE EXPECTED IN MANHATTAN.

STATE BOARD OF ARBITRATION MAY SEEK A
MEETING WITH METROPOLITAN OFFICIALS.
The officials of the Metropolitan Traction
Company ridicued yesterday the suggestion
that in case Of railroad strike happening in
Brooklyn the tie-up will spread to the system
iu this borough The Metropolitan officials
have the opinion that there will be no trouble
in this city, the recently signed protesta-
tion of % per cent Of their employees that they
were satisfied with their hours and wages
Whether there is merit or not in the contention
OF John NJ. Parsons that most Of these names
obtained under threats OF discharge. the
fact remains that by far the greater proportion
OF the men on the Metropolitan system have
refused 10 become affiliated with the Knights
of Labor.
II expected that the State Board OF Ar
bitration and Mediation would meet yesterday
in response to Mr. Parsonss appeal TO that body
10 give its attention 10 the grievances con-
planned Of by the Metropolitan employees. But
as H. H Webster. a member Of the Board, was
detained in Buffalo no meeting could be held
Commissioner J. H. Gilbert. OF Syracuse, came
10 the city however. and Informally discussed
the situation with Commissioner Francis b.
Delehanty.
When seen yesterday MI Delehanty said that
his official attention had been directed 10 the
Metropolitan trouble by Mr.. Parsons. who
called on him with number OF railway en-
ployes and requested that the Board Of Aroi-
tration take the matter up When asked II he
recognized Mr.. Parsons as representing any con-
siderable number Of Metropolitan men, Mr.
Delehanty said that he naturally had 10 recog-
nize the head OF the Knights Of Labor as repre-
senting more or less men. He believed that the
trouble was probably somewhat exaggerated
owing 10 the fact that a majority OF the en-
ployes Of the road had stated that they We're
satisAed with their condition Nevertheless Mr..
Delehanty said. the State Board Of Arbitration
might ask FOR a meeting with the Metropolitan
officials both 70 learn their side or the story
and TO ask certain questions aboat assertions
that the men make.
Regarding Brooklyn affairs Mr.. Delehanty
said that Mr. Parsons had positively stated 70
him that there would not be any strike on the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit system.

The large number OF cases that Of late have
come TO light where death has come TO sick
people who have placed themselves under the
care OF the so-called Christian Scientists has
served to draw general public attention TO the
increasing spread OF the extraordinary doctrines
OF this sect, and the consequent growing danger
10 the community l. has for long time been
felt by common sense people that some restric-
tions should be placed upon the operations Of
class who admittedly place the lives OF their
sick in jeopardy for the mere want Of medical
attention. That feeling found concrete form
last evening. when at a meeting organized by
the Medical and Legal Relief Society a move
ment was started for the purpose Of securing
Legislation TO regulate the practice Of healing
by self-professed Christian Scientists and pro-
hibiting the exclusion from the sick room.
through the persuasion Of such mental healers.
Of regularly qualified physicians.
The meeting. which held at the Waldorf

clergymen. In organizing the meeting the

large number Of faith healers. In point OF fact
they rather monOpolized the evenings discus

avoided the real question at issue. and devoted
themselves to extong from their point OF view
the merits OF their beliefs. There were others,
however, who adhered 70 the purpose OF the

exercise Of mental healing, on the ground that 1t
tended to interfere with the liberty Of the indi-

Gulf Of Ragai. between Palad Bank and
Alibijaban Island, and in the centre Of

'Zamboanga is an exposed Toadstead.
The town was a stronghold built by the
Spaniards as an entrepOt and clearance port
for vessels trading in ports under control OF
the MOres nominally subject TO Spanish
dues. 1t has no commercial value what
ever. There is a much more sheltered spot
at Port Massingluk, about eight miles tO
the eastward. Zamboanga has been burned
and almost deserted by the insurgents
Ysabel Basilin Island, is well sheltered
port.
In Okmok Bay, Leyte, the charts give
prominence to Puerto Bello, but it is most
Insignificant fishing village. The real port
here is Okmok itself a large town with
European built houses and go-downs, and
an extensive environment Of nipe houses
There are lighter piers and indications of
a considerable commerce. The port Of Kari
CARA, Leyte about which the sailing di-
rections admit ignorance, is large Euro
pean-built town of at least 1900 inhabi-
tants. There is a large municipal building
surrounded by about twenty European
built residences and half dozen or more
go-downs and stores, the whole environed
by q vast number of nipe houses.
''ZumaTaga, west side of Buad Island,
between Samar and Leyte, is a beautiful
spot, sheltered by high mountains and with
a Toomy anchorage for deep-draft vessels
and channel approaches from north and
south. The large and important CONNER
eial ports of Katbalogan and Kalbayok,
Samar Island, are open roadsteads, badly
exposed to the southwest monsoon. Sail
ing vessels wishing to keep away from the
lee shore at these ports seek a sheltered
anchorage in the cove on the east side OF
Libukan Island and transfer their cargoes
to and from small sailing lighters which
run to and from the ports. Kalbayek Is
probably the third town in size and COM
| mercial importance in the Philippines.

worlds history has there been so much
restlessness and political agitation Impe-
rialism is seeking to clutch every inch OF
territorial domain; commercialism is over
riding the rights Of the many to the op-
pressors' gain, and secularism is crushing
out spiritualism. This being so. the speak
er said we should whet and sharpen our
intelligence, look beneath the surface of
things, and study the drift of life The
pulpit that ignores these manifest over
turnings and revolutions has failed to show
that sagacity Christ inculeated when he
urged that all men should discern the signs
Of the times" Referring to the war which
is now in progress between England and
the Beers. Or. Easton said:
Evolution is the divine law OF pro-
gression, and ever onward is the cause OF
God in the permitted struggles Of races.
and the battle of the Beers can be no ex-
eeption." The speaker then gave brief
sketch OF the national character OF the
cOntending parties, the cause which led up
TO the present struggle, and what he con
sidered viii most likely be the final result
of the war In the TraRsvaal.
We all know who England is, he said
but the question which prompts itse {
TO Us is who are the Beers. and what
are their rights to the possession of South
-hA4ANelT N1at - AAtiL present SLaLl5t E4HlI
political creed and religious faith. The
Beers possess all the great and noble
qualities of their ancestors, are protestant
to the eore-with an intense feryor and
devotion, and believe in a republican form
Of government As one OF the causes o.
the war Dr. Easton asserted tEat England
does not want a republic in Africa He
thinks, on the contrary, tLat tie Boers are
entitled TO independence which he calls
the common God-giyen rights of man. -
And he said they are asking far less and
stand on firmer ground that did our
American colonies"
DR.. Easton thinks there are possibilities
Of entanglements between the continental
powers by which Russia may find a clear
path across the Himalayas, and he pre-
diets that the mobilization of the British

some action, and before the struggle is
over Great Britain may find that she has
drawn her sword too rscklessly.
America" said Dr. Easton. ought TO
stand by the Beers. If her bOasted love of
freedom means anything more than an old
song. We hear a great deal about Eng
lands support during our war with
Spain, and that we must reCiprOcate and
stand with her in the event OF European
Intervention. But we have all we can
attend TO in the Philippine Islands, and
unless Otis is recalled and a more de-
teTmined policy pursued than seems TO be
favored by our Administration, the war
with ourselves viii last as long as the
war for the Union.
To sum up, DR.. EastOn said the cause Of
the present war in the TransvaaI could
be told in two words. gold and diamonds.
