The statement by President Mellen, of
the Northern Pacific, in an interview in
New York, hat the proposed committees
to govern freight traffic in Western ter
ritory were in the nature of blind pools,
comes nearer to an official declaration on
this subject than any other that has yet
been made. While the Northern Pacific
has refused to become a member of the st.
Pau committee. it must be assumed that
President Mellen is thoroughly familiar
with all the details In connection with ii.
and bases his refusal to enter the pool
on positive Information as to its charac-
ter. In fact, he says the refusal of the
Northern Pacific to become a party to the
agreement is upon the advice of counsel to
keep out of pooling arrangements. AS a
matter of fact, the lines east of Chicago
have not ceased to pool since the formation
of the famous Joint Traffic Association,
which combination was declared a violation
of the Sherman antitrust law. All traffic
eastbound from Chicago is divided ac-
cording to agreed percentages and appor-
toned among the ten lines. The best evil
dence of a pool is the fact that there has
not been a freight rate war In the eastern
preaching a battle for traffic. This would
be one of the things impossible were the
paralleling lines in competition.

MISSIONARIES RESPONSIBLE.
Bishop Morrison's Referred
to by Former German Minister.

BERLIN, Sept. 2s.-Herr Won Brandt,
former German minister TO China, has an
article in the Deutsche Revue in which he
asserts that the missionaries caused the
antiforeign uprising by persisting in
mingling in political affairs and seeking to
gain political influence. He cites in sup
port of his contention the recent declara-
ton at Louisville. KY, of a bishop of the
Methodist Episcopal Church that the
Methodists were responsible for the present
troubles in China and ought TO thank God
for IL.
The statement referred to by Herr Won
Brandt in the Deutsche Revue was made
by Bishop H. C. Morrison. of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, at the laying of the COR
Eerstone of the Fourth-avenue Methodist
Church in Louisville on Aug. Is. Bishop
Morrison said: II think God that Allen and
Lambeth over there and the Methodists
in this country are responsible for the
present trouble in China With bowed
head. 1 thank God that in some small way
| am to blame for the unrest in China to-
Gay. 1 thank God that each and every one
of you and all the Methodists in this
country are to blame. 1t is the itinerary of
Methodism."

i. U. FOOTBALL CHANCES.
Good Material for the Team and Good
Men to Coach.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Sept. 2S.-Athlet-
les have reached an interesting stage at
Indiana University. Football teams are be-
ing selected by all the colleges and univer-
stiles in the State. New men have been Sc
cured and the stars of last years teams
are again on the gridiron. Indiana Univer-
sity is not behind the other institutions in
this respect. 1t is early to predict her sue
cess for the football season, but much is
expected from the team. Aydelottle, John
son, Hubbard, Ray, Pike. Neizer and Bar
bour will not play, but Coaches Horne and
McAndrews are confident that their places
can be filled with good line men. William
Sparks, a star Of the 1898 team, has re-
entered college and donned a football uni
form. A position on the team is already as
sured him. Fora Clevenger, formerly a
member of the Muncie High school team,
is trying for full back, and will make Ii,
so experienced football men say. Captain
Foster, who played quarter back last year,
will be in that position again. Later in the
season, however, he may change. Hurley
Is endeavoring to make center. He played
there last year.
Coaches Horne and McAndrews have
about t~hirty-iye candidates in training.
Some are showing remarkable speed and
cleverness. McAndrews arrived last week
from Dartmouth. His tactics, thus far,
have been very severe, entirely too much
so, the candidates say. However, he has
the good of the team uppermost. he says,
and will bear being unpopular If a winning
team can be secured. McAndrews has come
to 1. u. highly recommended. While he is
doing the greater part of the coaching, yet
he will be an assistant to Horne, director
of all athletics in the university.
Six of last years team will play this sea-
son-Captain Foster, Teter, Hurley, David
son, Hawley and McGovney. Much is ex-
pected from Ruddle, Tilson, Smith and Elf
ers, all Of whom have had previous train
ing.
The seasons first game will be played
Saturday afternoon between an alumni
and the Varsity eleven. Nearly all the
candidates will be given a chance on the
latter team. In this way the coaches be-
lieve they can get a line on the men and
find what is in them. King. Hubbard, Ray,
Meier. Aydelotte, Pike and Endicott will
play on the rlumni team. Games have been
already booked with Notre Dame, Purdue,
Illinois. Michigan, Cincinnati and North
western. The state championship will be
decided in the games with Purdue and
Notre Dame.

CONDITIONS NOT RIPE.
Germany II Not Anxious to Hurry
Pence Ncgotiatfons.


BERLIN, Sept. 2S.-An Official of the For
eign Office to-day called attention to the
statement of a London paper that 1.-The
view prevails in the United States that
Germany. in issuing her recent note, was
trying to take the diplomatic lead in the
China question:" This assertion he en-
phatically denied, declaring that. on the
contrary, was merely e~ndeayor-
ing, by means of her proposal, to restore
harmony among the powers. conditions
are not yet ripe" he said, for beginning
negotiations, although the only obstacle is
China herself. The recent acts of the Chi
nese government show that 1t is still far
from respecting the will of the powers. II
1t should show a change of spirit by deliv-
ering some of the guilty mandarins for
punishment that would be the time to talk
of making peace"
When the attention of the Foreign Office
official In question was called to the ex-
IRENE difficulty of capturing the guilty
persons In such a vast, roadless country,
even supposing that an agreement had
been reached as to who they are, he re-
piled: at would not be necessary to catch
them all. 1t would be quite sufficient to
punish those who are the easiest to catch.
