A Certain Tonic and
Invigorator
Dr. Wm. N. Bradford, of Cambridge, Ohio,
writes: " I find Johann Hoff's Malt Extract re
tained and assimilated by the most delicate stom
ach. It Is a certain tonic and Invigorator, Imparts
energy and vivacity; Increases the red blood cor
puscles and thereby supplies resistance to fatigue.
It Is all you claim for It."
CHAPELLE DEFENDS
SPANISH FRIARS
FILIPINOS OWE CIVILIZATION
TO CHUBCK INFLUENCE.
Does Not Believe That General Funs
ton Made Bemarks Regarding Con
fiscation of Church Property Tfat
Havo Been Attributed to Him.
The Philippines Cannot at Present
Be Under Church Bule.
Washington, Oct. ,':3. Archbishop
Chapelle, of Now Orleans, apostolic
delegate to Cuba, Porto Htco mid the
Philippines today pave out the follow
ing statement to the Associated Pres3;
"In answer to General Funaton's
statement made In an address to the
students of Stanford university that 'If
congress would drive out the friars and
confiscate every Inch of cnurcn prop
erty the bottom would drop out of the
Insurrection within one week. The In
habitants of Luzon nro completely un
der the church,' I defm it proper to
make the following statement:
"Knowing what 1 do from most re
liable authority of General Fdnslon's
broad mindednev3 and sense of fair
ness I do not bollevo that he has been
quoted correctly. He may have stated
that the Insurgents demand this as a
condition of peace; but that he gave
them as his, own sentiments I cannot
credit. From my own experience I
linow how easily It is to be misquoted.
All I can say is, if General Funston
did make this staterrent. ho manifest
ed a dense ignorance 01 the work done
by the religious orders in this archi
pelago. On the very face of it, how
ever, It shows quite plainly that it did!
not come from one us well posted a3
General Funston should be on affairs
In Luzon. He is o.uoled as saying 'tho
inhabitants of Tjiizon are completely,
under the church.' Wow, I would asl:
how can this be possible when every
priest (with tho exception of a few na
tives) in the island of Luzon outsldo
of the walled ciy of Manila, Is a
lirlsor.cr of the insurgents. For the
past eighteen months this state of af
fairs has existed and during all this
period more than KSu filars havo been
undergoing unheard of torture In insur
gent dungeons. This being a fact, It 13
hard for me to see how the island can
bo 'under tho friars." It looks tc mo
ns though just the opposite were the
case.
"That the insurgents have asked as
one of their terms of peace the expul
sion of the friars and the confiscation
to the insurgents of all the church
property Is a fact well knows; but we
are told by the government oillclals
(and I know it to be a fact from other
reliable sources) that the Insurgents
represent only one tribe out of the S5
tribes peopling the archipelago, so the
sentiments volcd by the insurgents)
about the friars and church cannot be
taken as the sentiments of the great
body of the natives. No more than
they came to be taken as the senti
ments of the natives toward our peo
ple and government.
Lifted Out of Savagery.
"Whatever the natives are or have
they owe to the friars. By them
they were lifted out of savagery and
brought under the blessed and relln
lng Influences of Christianity. By
them they were educated, not only
in the schools, but In the fields and
workshops were taught by them the
very Industries which are now the
source of their prosperity. Mr. Pey
ton, the agent of the Episcopal For
eign Mission association, tells us that
'the natives are the most moral and
religious people on the face of the
globe.'
'Now the men who taught them to
be cannot be such men as some 'narrow-minded
people would try and have
us believe. Rev. Dr. Abel, a Scotch
Protestant missionary, also testifies
that 'nearly the whole population of
tho Philippine archipelago has been
converted to the Catholic faith by
the Spanish monks and a wonderful
improvement in their social condition
has been the result.' He then gos
on to show that If any one doubts thl3
Improvement it can easily be made
manifest by comparing the Christian
native with his southern neighbor of
the same blood the fanatical Moro.
"As to the confiscation of the es.
tates. you might as well talk of con
fiscating the estates of the Vander-
bllts, the Astors and other million
aires whose estates have In the course
of years grown so wonderfully. Theiv
would be Just as much right and just
ice In one case as In the other. Th
estates of the religious orders have
been acquired In the usual way by
purchase, and In the course of fiur
centuries have actually grown large;
but If even unbiased Protestant wit
nesses are to be credited, large as
they are, all are used for the better
ment and uplifting of the natives.
In Need of Tutelage.
"A fortner British counsel (a Pro
testant) writing on this subject, says:
'It was by means of these estates the
friars Introduced agriculture and set
tled habits of life umong tribes origi
nally nomadic. It was by means uf
these estates that they got them to
Jive in villages and Introduced among
them the arts of civilized life. It
was by means of these estates that
they acquired the power of inducing
them to labor with a certain amount
of regularity and method the great
safeguard against a relapse again into
their original state of savagery. The
natives,' he says, 'are with some rare
exceptions In need of tutelage, with
out which they would fall back to the
customs of their ancestors, a custom
that no one can exercise better thin
the friars. Within the precincts of
the monasteries are to be found car
penter shops, forges, brick and tile
yards, etc., to teach the natives var
ious trades. The villages formed
around them presented a pleasing pic
tures of happiness find content In
startling contrast to those who wero
still Pagan and uncivilized.'
"In a short time I will start for tho
Philippines, and I will personally In
Johann
noirs
Malt
Extract
vestigate all churges made against re
ligious orders, titles of property, etc.
Until I have completed my work I
would ask the good people of the
United Stntes not to be too ready to
swallow as facts the opinions of gentle
men whose previous trnlnlng and lack
of opportunities to get at the real facts
do not warrant their statements con
cerning the Catholic ministers of re
ligion, the Intellectual capacity, the
moral and social condition of the peo
ple of the archipelago, to be taken as
undisputed facts by sensible and Just
minds; nor can they, therefore, be
taken as an exact presentation of a
condition of things In the Philippines
upon which tho United States govern
ment could prudently and equitably
base Its policy with regard to this
archipelago. The church asks only
Justice, and I will not countenance tho
retention of ono inch of property which
Is not legitimately held.
"One word now on another subject.
I see that It Is said that the object of
my visit to the white house on Satur
day was to protest against the looting
and desecrating of the churches In tho
Philippines. This was not tho case.
As to the looting and desecration of
these churches, I nm Informed by a
person whose word I cannot doubt that
this looting was not done by our
American soldiers, but by the Insur
gents and the Chinese.

Mr. Torbet Must Do tho Work of Ob
talnp Stock Subscriptions Board
of Trade Will Not Engage in That
Work Tames W. Clark Made Chief
Clerk in the Division Freight and
Passenger Office of tho Lacka
wanna Boad Monster Coal Break
er at Cnrbondale.
The manufactures committee of the
board of trade desire it understood
that the only support to be given the
proposed tin plate factory by that
body will bo what might bo termed
moral support. The actual work of
obtaining stock subscriptions Is to bo
done by Mr. Torbet himself.
The support of the committee will
not bo given until Mr. Torbet brings
here a practical man who will agree
to assume the management of tho
plant. Mr. Paton, who was hero on
Saturday last, Is being prevailed upon
to do this, but ns he already has a
good position In Cleveland, It Is doubt
ful If he will accept.
Mr. Torbet Is at present engaged In
looking up such a man and has pro
mised to come to this city again on
next Saturday.
Clark Appointed.
James W. Clark, of Market street,
has been appointed chief clerk In tho
division freight and passenger ofllce of
the Lackawanna, and will begin duty
Wednesday morning.
Mr. Clark, for the past three years,
has been In the ofllce in this city of the
Lehigh Valley railroad, and formerly
was with the Ontario and Western
company.
An Immense Breaker.
"To fully realize the Immense height
of tho mammoth breaker under con
struction by tho Delaware and Hudson
company on tho 'flats' ono should
mount td the top most floor nnd look
to the ground below," says tho Caibon
dale Louder.
"When finished It will be one great
piece of machinery and will contain all
of tho newest methods of preparing
coal for the market. In a building
at the terminus of what look, to be a
place similar to the one now In use to
pull the cars over to the top of tho
Coalbrook breaker is a building under
which there is an Immense hopper
where coal can be dumped both from
the standard guage cars nnd the small
mine ears. From this hopper a coal
conveyor carriers the lumpy material
to the topmost point In tho breaker,
which looks like a separate two story
structure, placed directly on top of the
main building and about half as wide.
By the conveyor nrrangement tho pull
ing cf the cars upon an Icllned plane
to the top of the breaker, the method
usually employed, Is avoided, making
a great saving of time and money, for
often times a cable broke and tho
whole trip of cars ran to the bottom of
the piano nnd were smashed.
"The coal from Wilson Creek mine
was formerly taken over a trestle from
the top of the culm pile Into Coalbrook
breaker, but that with the other coal
will be dumped Into the immense hop
per and taken Into the new breaker by
tho conveyor. For this purpose a new
track has been constructed along tho
hillside from a point above tho culm
pile and across the tracks leading
from Coalbrook mine, circling In a min
iature horse shoe towards the hopper
building. There they are switched
back toward the mule barn on a cir
cular track that rejoins tho 'horse shoe'
In the straight lino that leads from the
old track. The grade Im some place-,
on the new track Is said to be three
feet In a hundred.
"The Immense enterprise Is impressed
upon one's mind fully when the coal
stoppnge plant on the site of Anthra
cite Park is visited. Hero great pro
gress has been made, the seven tracks
having been laid already and every
thing is In readlnessi for the laying
of the circular rails upon which the
roloader will work. The coal will be
piled upon culm Instead of cement ns
first intended. The coal will be plied
by conveyors which will be operated
by stationary steam enrlnes. It Is first
dumped Into hoppers similar to tho one
at new Coalbrook breaker, except that
they operate upon movable chute-llko
arrangements which are supported by
an Iron trestle."
This and That.
Tho excavation for the foundation
of the new Paull building on Spruce
street Is almost completed and stone
for the foundation was yesterday
hauled to the site.
The paper mill at Wllkes-Barre has
enough orders on hand to keep it work
ing day and night. New machinery
is to be ndded and all the various
grades of paper will be manufactured.
The factory will be known as the
Criterion Paper mills.
Yesterday morning the new culm
washery on tho Diamond flats was
started In operation. Tho culm from
the large dumps thereabouts will be
washed In this industry, and from the
waste will be ssparated the market
able coal. Richmond & Hallstead will
operate the washery.
A new time table will go Into effect
on the Lehigh Valley the first of next
month and according to rumor several
Important changes will be made. The
rumor also says that two new trims
are to be put on, running as local
trains between Buffalo and New York
city. One will leave Jersey City some
time in the morning and will run
through to Buffalo, and the other will
leave Buffalo about 3 p. in. and will
