THE FILIPINO CHURCH
Origin of the Independent Move
NJ ment Which Is Causing Roman
d.. Prelates Much Concern. \
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, April 27.-William 3. Curtis,
in a Washington special to the Record
Herald, says: %-.. II
The independent Catholic movement in
the Philippine islands, which was dis
cussed with so much concern at a meet
ing Of archbishops in this city the other
day, has been in progress for nearly three
years under the leadership of native
priest named Father Aglipay. He is about
40 years old; was born in Manila, edu-
Gated by the Augustinian friars and was a
parish priest for several years, but was
suspended from his duties for ecclesiastical
reasons shortly before the Spanish war.
He joined Aguinaldo. became a member
of his government, and afterward a gen.
eral under him, and was one of the last
to come in. He was a good fighter and
surrendered to Colonel Maccaskey Of the
Twentieth infantry, who is now In COM
mand at Fort Sheridan.
Being fond of intrigue, and of an ener-
getic disposition, Father, or General Agli
pay Che is addressed by both titles) took
an active part in the movement against
the friars, and was most urgent in his
demands upon the United States authori-
ties that they should be driven out and
their property and parish churches be
given to native priests. His activity was
SO great that, with his qualities for leader
ship. he soon became recognized as the
spokesman for the native clergy, and as
he made no impression upon the local
ecclesiastical authorities. he undertook
the organization Of an Independent Cath
olic church. for which he hoped to OBJ
tain the recognition of the American gov
!. eminent, If not that Of the Vatican i
is believed by those who were in Manila
at the time. that if Archbishop Chapelle
had adopted different policy and had
shown a little more tact in dealing with
the question, he might have suppressed
the movement at the outset; but he pre-
ferred to treat Aglipay as an outcast and
adventurer, and thus excited sympathy fol-
him and gave him standing with the
Ioyal members of the Catholic church who
were opposed to the retention Of the OBJ.
noxious friars.

BRITISH ARE REPULSED
Major Cough Compelled to Retire
" by Mad Mullah's Followers.
New York sun snaoial -saruica..

New York Sun special Service ~ ~ - ~ s,
London, April 27-The British somali-
land expedition has had another severe en-
gagement with the followers of the Mad
Mullah. A, small column under Major
Cough. which was moving towards Wall
Wall from Bohotle in the northeast. con-
currently with General Manning's advance
upon Wall WALL was surrounded by the
enemy in the thick bush. The fighting
lasted until almost all the ammunition of
the British was gone, when they retired
fighting to Danop. They lost two officers
and thirteen men killed and four officers
and twenty -eight men wounded; all ma
tives except the officers. The fighting
lasted from 1880 in the morning till 5:45
in the evening on April %. Much of the
fighting was at close quarters. The
enemy, who were recklessly brave were
frequently repulsed. 1t is estimated that
more than a hundred of them were killed.
The British made four bayonet charges
According to later official details of the
disaster that befell Colonel Plunket' s
column, the enemy, despite their over
whelming numbers, horse and foot, who
repeatedly charged with fallatical brav-
cry, were kept off until Colonel Plunkett's s
ammunition was gone. His square was
then broken and the survivors tried to
cut their way through the enemy. Sur
vivors say that dead followers Of the
Mullah were piled up in heaps in front of
the Maxim guns. The British force used
ordinary service bullets instead Of dunn
dums or similar expanding bullets and
were consequently at disadvantage, the
service bullets, as has been often proved,
failing to stop the rushes Of fanatical
savages. Nevertheless at least 1000 OF
them were killed, chiefly by the Maxim
fire. The statement that General Man
ning's force killed 1000 of the enemy In
their recent engagement was evidently an
error. The report referred to Colonel
Plunkett's engagement. ~.

ELEVEN MEN ARE KILLED
Work Train on the Missouri Pacific
Is Demolished by a Collision
With Freight.

Buffalo. Kan, April pa north bound
Missouri Pacific stock train crashed into
the rear end of a work train Just north
of this town at o'clock last evening and
eleven men were killed and twenty five In
jured. Ten of the latter are seriously and
four probably fatally hurt They were
Greeks and Italians. excepting one, Peter
Fry, an American, who has lived here sew
,eral years and was a boss on the work
train. The cause of the wreck is given as
.misreading. of orders. a
The work train consisted of fiat cars and
a calooose, all filled with laborers The
men on the fiat cars escaped by jumping
but hardly a man in the catooose escaped.
The work train was backing into town for
the night and running at a good speed.
The heavy freight engine did not leave
the track but ploWed the work train Oft
the track. leaving little of it except car
wheels and kinding wood. Doctors of
Buffalo, assisted by the townspeople, did
heroic work among the injured until the
wrecking train with surgeons Of cNeedesha
and a corps Of half a dozen physicians
from Coffeyville and Independence ar
rived. The dead and injured were taken
to Coffeyville, the latter to be temporar-
lily cared for at the hospital there. The
scene of the wreck looked like battlefield
by the dazzling light Of the burning
debris, with dead men strewn about upon
the ground where they had been left after
being taken from the wreck.

progressing as fast as it should, and the
Commercial Union was organized. The
first thing that it went after was the rail-
roads, and tho the constitution specifies
that it is organized for the social and
literary improvement of its members, the
benefit the city has derived from it has
been more than the individual members
have received.
In the year 1897 while John Lind was
still a resident Of this city and member
of the union, he introduced resolution
to the effect that, as the rates on hard
coal to this city were out Of proportion
to that of other cities and stations east
and west, the matter be brought to the
attention Of the railroad and warehouse
commissioners, and demanded a reduc-
ton in the rate, so that it would not be
more than 81 a ton. This protest was
followed UP with some vigorous demands,
and the result was that the commission
ers came to this city and met with the
Commercial Union, and the rate was fixed
at s195, being below that asked by the
union.
The railroads did not object to this re-
duction and were willing to grant 1t, but
coal from Duluth and Superior to this
city comes over two lines Of road, the St
Paul e. Duluth and the Minneapolis
st. Louis, and these two roads were un-
able to decide on the division Of the rate
and there was nothing done until the case
was taken into court by the commission

governing power to insist that they should
interchange traffic for reasonable COM
pensation, for. the benefit Of the citizens
of the state. 80 -. - >-.-.:
This was the position taken by John
Lind before the commissioners and before
the Commercial Union, which at no time
has lost track of the proceedings. This
probably is the most important piece of
work that the union has done. Thru the
action of the union the city has been sup
piled with an excellent sewer system, the
parks have been put in good shape and
each year there has been some large con-
vention or other attraction that has
brought thousands of people to the place
and many, thousands of dollars have been
left as result. It has also been the
means of securing for the city a better
train service, as the railroads have given
the most respectful attention to the de-
mands that have been made upon it by
the union. .--.. --... s.- -
The present officers are Jacob Kloss-
ner, president; "A. J. Eckstein, vice presi-
dent; G. A. Ottomeyer, secretary, and F.
H. Behnke, treasurer. These men have
been members Of the union since its be-
ginning, and do not hesitate to take theil
time from their business to attend the
meetings and other duties that the untor
imposes upon them. It is because there
are such men in the city that it has beer
possible to keep the organization alive anc
active. -

DRUGGISTS ON STRIKE.

Havana, April 27.-Protests are being made
thruout the island against the taxes Imposed
stores of Havana and its suburbs, almost with
out exception, closed yesterday In protest against
the stamp tax Of cents on every package Of
patent medicine sold. The druggists, following
the example Of the theater managers, have sought
to have this tax rescinded, but the provincial
council has refused their request. Yesterday
it was almost impossible to procure medicines In
Havana except at the free municipal dispen-
saries, Of which there is one in every ward.
