No Opposition Il, The Church.

In giving this tnteryiewsI have as my
chief purpose to erhpffa size the attachment
of the Filipino bsople'a to the Catholic
Church to show that opposition to the
triars by no means indicates opposition to
the church. Nor do 4, .indeed, when con-
slider the history 81 the ISLAND, throw much
blame on the friars.a circumstances over
them into the present situation. But the
situation exists asM described it, and will
exist 50 long as the frtars will be there.
AS to the fruits of the labors of the
religious and INSTRUMENTATION OF the Philip
pines give ample evidence. Their mistake,
again repeat, Wits simply In being too
closely connected With the Spanish govern
ment, In maintaining and defending that
government, and insheldfhg too long and too
fast to their landed fntefests.'

COST Of
REMOVAL
OF SNOW.
The Public Works Department
Furnishes Interesting Fig
ures On The Subject.

Few people realize, perhaps, what
gigantic task confronts the department
OF public works. whose business II is 10
keep the public streets and highways In
order after a big snowstorm, OF a type of
the several which we have recently ex-
perienced
The little snowstorms. Of course, take
care OF themselves. and few sunny days
or rain storm soon dispels the same,
but real. genuine. old-fashioned snow
storm is quite another matter and calls
for prompt and vigorous action on the
part of the powers that be. The winters
OF '96 and 's7 were noted for a number of
snowstorms with a corresponding cost TO
the city. Since that time, however, the
fall OF snow has given the city little
trouble, until recently, and during the
past month the snowfall has been unus-
ually large. The two big storms which
preceded the present one cost the city
s5316 10 remove and this amount VIII be
swelled considerably after the snow and
slush. which is now piled up along the
streets and highways. is cleared away.
In the big snowstorm of a week or
more ago about FIVE miles Of streets In the
central part of the city We're cleared OF
big surplus of snow. In addition 10 these
FIVE miles all those streets where there
are no car rails and where much heavy
teaming is done were in a condition which
required prompt action from the depart
ment of public works.
In all such sections where big teams pass
and repass ice forms in ridges that run
at right angles with the traffic, so that
when teams drive over IL IL is like driving
over corduroy road.
This ice has TO be picked up and carted
away at a large cost TO the city. During
the last two storms every man and team
that applied to the city department for
work was given job.
Laborers were paid sl.50 per day. single
teams $3.50 and double teams $40 per
day. About 400 men were thus employed
in the last two storms.
All the snow which is taken from the
centre of the city il dumped into the
river along Promenade, Canal, South
Water and Dyer streets. and from
wharves along the harbor.
The usual method employed in remov-
ing the snow along the principal streets
Is TO leave sufficient snow 10 afford
sleighs a chance to be used.
In the present instance, however, II
being so late In the season, the depart
ment OF public works have decided tc
remove the snow along Westminster
street and this work is now being pushed
forward as rapidly as possible.

received by the agents of the American
line here and were quartered at various
hotels.
The collision occurred In thick fog al
half-past IL o'clock Wednesday night
when the waesltand was about 40 miles
southwest Of Holyhead. The Harmonides
struck the waesland amidships and there
was a terrible shock. Most OF the Waes-
lands passengers had retired for the
night Perfect order and discipline pre-
vailed. The crew OF the steamer rapid.
turned out the passengers and succeeded
in assuring them that their lives were
safe. The passengers were greatly innu-

obeyed instruction willingly and quickly
