METHODlSTS MAKE
 SCHOOL APPROPRIATIONS

Nashville Tenn, April 22.-The board of education of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, after making appropriations for the aid of schools and receiving reports of various com mittees, adjourned its meeting here late today Bishop Hoss presided at the session.
 The appropriations included $21 900 to white schools, $12,0O0 to negro schools and $12,000 to theological schools. The department of minis terial supply and training was given $4000. The appropriations to white schools throughout the south ranged in amounts from $500 to $l,0O0.
 Vanderbilt University was left out of the appropriations made by the board According to statements of a member of the board, the body pro ceeded on the assumption that it had no connection with Vanderbilt and the matter for making an appropria- ton for the Nashville institution was not considered
 During the morning session A. J. Lamar told of the progress which is being made in the organization of the great Emory University at Atlanta. and Bishop Mouzon discussed the plans of the new university at Dallas.

GERMANY MAKES
 SHIPPING HARDER
UPSETS EFFORTS OF NEUTRALS S TO GET CONCESSION FROM
 ALLIES.

Washington, April 22.-Press dis patches from Berlin announcing i'm. portant amendments to the German prize rules were noted at the state department today with some concern.
 While officials will await the text of these amendments before making any statements for publication, appre- hension is express ed privately that if the new rules are outlined correctly in the dispatches, they mark q notable advance by Germany towards the ab- solute exclusion of neutral commerce from the high seas. This comes, it is pointed out, just at the moment when all of the neutral powers have been bringing pressure to bear upon the allied powers to abate the severity of the blockade rules and prize laws as embodied in the recent British order in council.
 Difficulty in maintaining the right of neutral nations to ship conditional contraband to other neutral powers is toreseen by officials as q result of adoption as a German prize rule of the same provision as that in the British orders in council regarding goods consigned "to order" over which there has been so much discus sion
 Officials are even more concerned over the reported new German rule that a ship with conditional contra band bound for a neutral port shall be liable to capture and that the condi tional contraband may be confiscated without regard to the consignee when the snip is destined for neutral country from which the nations at war with Germany obtain conditional contraband articles.
 Since submarines alone of the Ger man naval craft are able now to navi- gate the open seas, it is supposed that enforcement of this rule would be ac- complished by assertion of right to destroy ships and cargo on the plea of inability to take them into port.
 A reflection of the views of the American government on this subject probably will appear in the note to be addressed to Germany regarding the American ship William P. Frye, sunk by the German cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich.

 ARTILLERY.
SIX COMP ANIES VENTILATED
After the Bon.-ardment Had Ceased
 Stones, Corpsss and a Debris Lay Mingled Together - Many of the
 Men Were Deranged by the Ordeal.

Paris, April 22.-An official eye witness, describing the operations by which the French are menacing the German positions in the wedge of St Nhiel, says:
 All the Ally woods. which consti- tuted a strong and well fortified SUD- port for the Germans, is now entirely in French hands. conquered for the most part by troops from the center of France after several days of sys- tematic preparations by a heavy fire from 3-inch and big guns and by aerial torpedoes. At certain points the Germans had constructed in front of the meats r yards wide. spiked barriers extending about six feet above the level of the earth, sur rounded by baIbed wire entangle- ments which were so intricate as to make them impervious to any tools.
 "A concentration of artillery fire opened large breaches in this de- fense; parapets were sent crashing to the ground and dismembered bodies
 
 clouds of smoke. The earth was strewn with overturned tre2asszasnsa asnsa | branches.
 'AfUersffve hours of fntense fire, five mines, laid under a parapet ad- jacent to the principal fort holding the position, exploded, annihilating the garrison and spreading panic in the trenches.
 An attack with fixed bayonets then began in three lines, preceded by detachment with hand grenades. Engineers followed with little bridges which had been prepared in advance to facilitate the passage over the network of trenches. The order has been given not 10 stop in any trencn but to pass over and take the enemy in the rear
 Three lines of trenches were thys> cleared of the Germans. Those who sought refuge in the underground shelters perished from suffocation, through the collapse of the entire earthWorks.
 "The enemy's losses were heavy uuFluB counter attaCkS Apnl D. We counted 200 dead on the evening of the 9th and on the evening of the 9th We found the dead piled in three rows.
 "Of the Ally woods there remained nothing but few hacked trunks. and not an inch of ground in it that had not been turned up by explosives. h the strange chaos, stones, corpses and a debris of limbs lay mingled.
 'On April an intensive lombard. ment by the enemy was begun. In 90 minutes upon this corner Of the woods over a front of from $50 to 400 yards deep, 10000 shells were fired The entire hill disappeared in cloud of smoke. When the fire ceased many men were mentally deranged.
 Again, on April 10 and April l3, our attacks were renewed, resulting in the gain of the balance of the posi- tion in Ally wood. Six German com panies besides the garrison in the fort were annihilated in these engage ments"

PRODUCE GROWERS
 OBJECT TO RAISE
REPRESENTATlVF DECLARES RAISE IN RATES WOULD CUR
 TAIL SHIPMENTS.

Chicago, April 22-Fruits and ve2e- tables raised in Texas now pay their full proportion of transportation charges, according to growers and dealers from that section, and the proposed advance in freight rates on these commodities. in the opinion of the same persons, would retard the development of the agricultural regions there and diminish the vol ume of freight for the carriers, These contentious were made today by sey- eral witnesses before W. M Daniels, interstate commerce commissioner. in the hearing of the western ate case in which fl western railroad sys. ems are seeking advances in freight rates on certain commodities among which are the Texas products
 On direct examination and on cross examination, J. A. O'Brien of Browns vile, Texas, manager of the Rio Gtande railway, an electric line in the Rio Grande valley, repeatedly de- clared that the installation of the ad- vanced freight rates on cabbages, onions and other farm products would retard the development of the farm lands in the Rio Granie valley
 His last words before leaving the witness stand were:
 'I have no complaint with the rai'- road service except that the roads are making mistake in raising the rates from the Rio Grande valley Those leople need encouragement. They went out there and settled on small farms led by the expectation that they could improve their conditions They are mostly poor with their all invested in their farms. They have furnished and are furnishing magnificent ton. mage to the railroads and their needs should be considered"
 E. F. Byars of Fort Worth Texas, secretary of the TeXa Wholesale Fruit and Produce Dealers Ass1cia- ton. introduced exhibits to show that in comparison with Louisiana, Texas was now paying higher rates for transp porting it's products to the north. He also declared the confirmation of the proposed advances in freight rate9 would be disastrous to the Texas farmers.
 Folders distributed by railroads painting the Texas landscape in rosy coors and telling of the wonderful productivity of the land were intro duced in evidence. Of them Mr. Byars said:
 some of these folders were cer- tanly quite deceiving if they led pros pective farmers to Texas with the eX. pectatiou that freight rates would continue constant. The railroads have sought to advise and assist settlers and they would now seek to raise transportation rates
 MT. Byars testified that in many cases the freight rates were higher than the value of the produce shipped. He estimated the tonnage of Texas fruits and vegetables annually trans ported as 2,6SS,054 tons.
 C. E. Childe. commissioner of the Sioux City Traffic Club, objected to the proposed increase in Texas rates on the ground that their installation would burden Sioux City in its com petition with Omaha On cross-eXami nation he took the position that the dealer would have to pay the advance "Of course" he said, "if the grower pays the advance that is altogether another matter
