TO OPPOSE HIGHER RATES.
New York Merchants Prepare
Make a Hard light.


Make a Hard Fight.
New York, Jan. Railroads be-
longing to the eastern trunk line pool
have put in active operation new
freight tariffs involving an advance of
20 to 25 per cent in rates. The mer-
chants of this city, not discouraged by
the refusal of Attorney General
Griggs to institute injunction proceed
ings to prevent the introduction of the
new rates, are determined to continue
their opposition. They will first APP
ply to the railroads themselves, and
try to get a hearing by the classifica-
ton committee which drew up the
higher rates. They propose to show
that the rates will not only be seri-
GUS discrimination against small ship
pers, since the advance on less than
carload lots is greater than on carload
lots, but that the new tariff is likely
to drive away business from this port.
Some of the trunk lines have received
complaints from business men in the
interior to the effect that if the new
rates stand they will be compelled to
ship by Baltimore, Charleston, Newport
News, New Orleans and other south
ern ports, since the narrow margin on
which they do business will not admit
any profit whatever under the new
tariff. If no other plan works, it is
understood shippers will take steps
against the railroads on the ground
that the new agreementAconcerni
rates is made by an iru6-clad pool,
which is in all respects assmuch vio-
lation of the anti trust INV as if it
were operating as an association.

steamer on the high seas has been em:,

is awaiting London's response before
taking further action.
The press continues to point out the
innovation involved in Great Britain's
action in selling a vessel between neu-
trail ports and searching for contra
band destined to further transporta-
ton in order to reach the enemy.
The owners of the Bundesrath and
Wagner deny positively that she con-
tanned persons or goods justifying
seizure. The Hamburg. chamber of
commerce reiterates this, expressing
at the same time a firm conviction that
satisfaction will be demanded and &C.
corded.
Hamburg's trade is suffering
through such incidents and this in.

REWARDS FOR NAVAL OFFICERS

Santiago CAPTAINS,

Washington, Jan. 4.-The president
has again taken up the question of re-
wardlng the naval officers who par
tlclpated in the destruction of Ger
vera's fleet off Santiago, and his final
conclusions will be embodied shortly
IN recommendations to congress, eth
er IN the form of II renewal of the adj
Nancement of Rear Admiral Sampson
and the officers under him by num-
beers. with perhaps some modification
the scheme which the senate refused
to ratify last spring-or according to
some other method. As result of the
Sampson-Sehley controversy, the re-
ward of all the subordinate officers in
the north Atlantic squadron has been
blocked up to this time and it is the
urgent desire of both he president
and Secretary Long that justice be
done to them, and that thew obtain
the rewards which they have earned.
Preliminary TO decision upon his
course of action the president aud Sec
rotary Long had consultation with
eight of the Santiago captains at the
white house. The naval officers pres
ent were Chadwick, Cook, Clark, Phil
ip. Evans. Iiigginson. Folger and Lieu

CHURCH QUESTION
IN THE PHILIPPINES
Difficult Problem That Archbishop
ChappeIle Is Called Upon
to Solve.
THE pAPAL DELEGATE ARRIVES
tie Reached Manila Yesterday-.Thss
Natives Are Likely to Cause
Trouble if the Friars
Return.

Manila, Jan. 4.-Archbishop Chap
pelle, papal delegate to the Philip
pines, arrived yesterday. 1t is said
the friars are striving to secure Cha
peile's ear for the purpose of securing
better protection for their individual
interests. The arrival of the papal
delegate directs attention to the ques-
ton of the church and brotherhoods
IN the Philippines, including the mat
ter of deciding the brotherhoods'
claims to real estate and other proper
" OF the church receiving state sup
port, and the establishment of Spanish
curates and native parishes.
BY the appointment of Chappelle %
Archbishop Nozaleda's successor the
fllipinos and Spaniartls feel that steps
VIII be taken IN these momentous
matters which may bring infinite good
or evil to the islands. Consequently
Chapelle's action will be closely
watched and fully discussed. All
classes of brotherhoods are anxious to
send representatives to parishes in the
provinces recently occupied by Ameri-
cans.
This matter will soon be brought to
Chappelle's attention, and his aid in
this connection solicited. Inasmuch as
the question of the. expulsion of the
brotherhoods from the islands and the
freedom of the, people from the al
legged injustice of members Of the or
ders alway has been declared to be the
principal cause of the revolt of the
Filipinos against Spain's sovereignty,
long time residents of the islands de-
clare of the friars are returned to their.
former parishes, the natives seeing
them return under American admins
istration will surely kill them and 9TH
erwise cause disorder. -
The revolutionists having started
rumor that Chappelle intends to even
tualiy recommend the appointment of
Father McKinnon, army chaplain from
California, as archbishop efs thes 1eshili
lppines, the latter's defense OF the
brotherhoods in the American newspa-
pers has been translated and circu-
lated among the natives for the pur>
pose, it is declared, of showing Father
McKinnon will support the brother
hoods if selected. Such statements as
these create uneasiness among the ma
tives; which is increased by the recent
news received from Spain to the effect
that Chappelle will support the broth
erhoods.
The. Tagalos, it is declared, have be-
come more embittered against the
church since Archbishop Nozaleda ex-
communicated an insurgent priest,
and it is said the number of Protestant
marriages among the natives continu-
ally increases.
