GOVERNMENT MEETS
ANOTHER REVERSE
QUESTION UP IN FRENCH CHAM
Der is THE RELIGIOUS EDUCA-
TON BlLL-COMBES REFUSES
TIC COMMIT HIMSELF.

Paris March 21.-In the chamber of
deputies today the government again met
with a slight reverse. During the dis
cussion of the religious education bill,
after the adoption of the clause provid-
ing for the extinction of the teaching
congregations by the suppression of
Novitiates, George Loygues. radical re-
publican, moved amendment except
ing from the operation of the clause such
Novtiates as were intended to provide
teaching stats for schools abroad, either
in the French colonies or the French
protectorates.
M Leygues, in speaking to the amend
ment, dwelt on the services which the
congregations had rendered in advancing
French influence, especially in Madagas-
car and pointed out the necessity of
counteracting the influence OF British.
American and Norwegian protestant
schools, which, he said, were working
in the interests of their respective coun-
tries nj. Doumergue, minister of the colo
MES, insisted that French interests would
be best promoted by the extension of
purely lay schools.
Before a vote was taken on NJ Ley
CUES amendment there was clamorous
demand for a statement of the position
of the government regarding the ques-
ton, but Premier Combes refused to re-
ply, whereupon the amendment was car
red by a vote of 2S3 to 272.

STATEMENT OF THE
ISLAND COMMERCE
TRADE OF UNITED STATES WITH
ITS NON-CONTlGUOUS TERRI
TORY AMOUNTS TO TO $e,ooo,o 900
PER MONTH.

Washington, March 21.-Commerce of
the United States with its noncontiguous
territory now averages about eight mil
lion dollars per month, and it is apparent
that for the full fiscal year it will aggre-
gate a round 100 millions of dollars. In
the term ''noncontiguous territory are
included Alaska, the Hawaiian Islands,
the Philippine Islands, Guam Tutuia
Porto Rico. Records of their shipments
to the ports of the United States and
of shipments from the various ports to
them are now regularly presented by the
department of commerce and labor
through its bureau of statistics.
These records show that the shipments
from the United tSates to Alaska Ha-
wall, Porto Rico, the Philippines, Guam,
and Tutuia aggregated in the seven
months ending with January, 1904, nearly
twenty-one million dollars. and the mer-
chandise received from them in the same
period nearly thirty-one million dollars.
If to this is added the gold bullion re-
ceived from Alaska. the grand total of
our commerce with the territory in ques-
ton for the seven months ending with
January would amount to nearly sixty
million dollars, which makes it quite APP
parent that for the fiscal year ending
with June 30 next the total will be fully
100 million dollars.

NEW CONTRACT Is
SIGNED BY MINERS
AGREEMENT is FOR TWO YEARS
AND NO CHANGE is MADE FROM
ORIGINAL PROPOSITION OF oP-
ORATORS.

indianapolis, March 2l.-The new scale,
embracing contract for two years, was
signed by the joint sub-scale committee
consisting of two miners and two oper-
ators of each of the four states forming
the central competitive district late this
afternoon No change was made from
the original proposition of the operators
which was voted upon by the miners. The
next joint conference will be held at In
dianapolis, January %, 1906.
The new scale. embracing a contract
for two years. provides for a reduction
in wages of $50 per cent. roughly speak
ing, or a general reduction equivalent to
one-half of the last increase in wages.
There are exceptions to this, one of the
principal exceptions being in regard to
drivers.
The drivers were increased last year
from S9.3 to s2.2S ana then to 81. 56. In
stead of making the reduction equivalent
to one-half the difference between s2.25
and 2.56, the reduction will be figured on
n basis of the difference between s2.2S
and s2.56.
AS the contract is for two years it will
not be necessary to hold joint confer
ence next year.
