Pastors or Praying Bands.
At the meeting of the Methodist Min.
listers to-day the Rev. Mr.. Goodsell read
a paper entitled "Ought Praying Bands,
as at present organized and conducted.
to receive the approval and cooperation
OF Pastors and Churchesr
He admitted that they did good, but
argued that the good was more than
counterbalanced by the evil they occa-
stoned, and that if some plan for
reorganizlng them and chang
ing their system was not
put in force they ought to be abolished
altogether. If the praying bands were
to remain in existence they should be in
no way secret societies, and should be
subject to the discipline of the church.
The Rev. Drs. George Il. Kettell and
Lloyd agreed with DR.. GoodselPs argu-
ments, and thought that praying bands
did great harm. The subject will be
further discussed two weeks hence.

NEWS FROM THE METROPOLIS
who Started the Rumor!

NEW YORK, October T.-The Stock
Exchange will on Wednesday next con-
slider what steps are necessary to ascer-
tain who authorized the report of the
death of Commodore Vanderbilt circu-
lated yesterday, and the rumor of last
Friday that the trunk lines had again
reduced rates. An effort will be made
to secure the enactment OF a statute re-
lating to such offenses.
The Mysterious Shooting.
Mrs. Cora Cneeseman is still under
inves tigation by the Coroner, although
DR.. Sowell, her physician, reports that
she is likely to recover.
A policeman was stationed at her
door all day yesterday by DR.. SoWelPs
orders, to prevent any one from calling
on her. He has protested against the
visits of the Coroner. Her condition,
he says, demands quiet.
MIR. Miller, keeper of restaurant next
door, was sent for by her yesterday.
She looked so well that he says he ex-
poets to see her out ON the street in two
weeks. She denounces as lies the state
ments printed in the morning papers;
also the report that her name was Camp
bell aud that she was unmarried.
Mrs. Cheeseman has been accustOme d
TO attend Sunday meeting of Spirit
ualists on Broadway. The missing hus-
band has not yet been found, but de-
scription OF him has been obtained. The
theory that the woman shot herself is
considered absurd by the police.

son County, has, by request of members
OF both political parties, been re-
leased. The defalcation amounted to
$41 900, but his property and money ad-
vanced by his friends has been sufficient
to repay the amount to the county.
He has served two years in the Peni.
tentiary, and had but one more to serve
when he was released.

The attitude of the Democratic party
with regard to the financial question is
at the best a negative evil. II it does
not imply actual resistance to resump-
tion, it certainly implies the multiplica-
tiOn of causes which would make re-
sumption more difficult and uncertain.
Even more mischievous would be the
effect on the public credit. The vast
improvement whicn had been brought
about in the national credit Is
wholly attributable to Republican ad.
ministration. The Democrats have
done much to hinder, nothing to help it..
Install them in power, and from that
moment the public credit must suffer.
1t would be at the mercy Of those who,
during and since the war, have been uni
fornlly its enemies. The Southern claims
would be sufficient TO shake the faith Of
the nations creditor. Whether sus-
tanned in their entirety by the Democrat
ic party or not, the tact that schemes
of expenditure are pressed upon
the party by that section OF It's members
which dictates its policy, to an extent
that would double the debt, would b.
fatal to financial confidence. Every
prudent man would ACT as though in the
presence of danger which might at any
moment culminate in panic and disas ter.
Conceding, therefore, that some change
is desirable, we have to take care, as
Mr.. Schurz puts it, that "the change to
be made is for the better and not for the
WORSE" Worse it would inevitably be
if it involved the restoration to the DEM
ocrats OF the control Of the Government.
IT Times.
The candidate whom the Republicans
rejected at Cincinnati has become the
cornerstone Of the Republican house.
The fortunes OF Gov. Hayes and OF "Re-
form within The Republican party" have
been committed to the keeping of an
orator denounced in the Democratic
platform at St. Louis as "Speaker Of
the House Of Representatives who mar
keted his rulings as presiding officer"
and left undefended to this hour against
the charge, by the leading organs of his
own party. Mr.. Blaine, of Maine, has bee
selected to open in this city tonight
the decisive battle of the Presidential
campaign. He comes TO the work en-
couraged by the shouts and cheers OF a
great Republican gathering and torch
light procession held on Saturday night
in our sister city OF Philadelphia, and
the most purblind of Republicans can
not pretend to doubt that he fully
represents the spirit in which the party
OF Hayes and Grantism Is fighting for
power, and the temper and the OBJ.
jects with which that party will admin
lister the Government Of the United
States for four years more should the
people OF this country be mad enough to
suffer 1t to win the prize for which it
fights. 'Like master like man" is a
proverb OF fair application in this case,
and the citizens Of New York, who were
edited only the other day by the sweet
uiterances of Colonel Bob IngersolL
who was selected by Mr. Blaine
to nominate him for the Presi-
dency' and press his claims on the con.
vention at Cincinnati, will have an ex-
ceiient opportunity of applying it to-
night. Not OF course that we expect
MIR. Blaine to outrage the sentimen; Of

NEW YORK, October ia large mass
meeting was held at Cooper Institute
last evening to ratiry the Republican
nominations. The attendance was SO
great that out-stands had to be erected
to accommodate the vast throng. Inside
the hall the crowd was dense but order

chances for the Presidency"
From the New York papers Of yesterday. |
The Democrats can not claim as cer-
tain single Northern State. Elections
in Maine, Vermont, and Ohio show that
old-rashioned Republican majorities are
to be expected from rural districts
throughout the North. II Wisconsin
was thought doubtful it must be classed
as certain for Hayes in view OF the ma
jorities in Northern Ohio. Since the
election in Maine no one doubts about
New Hampshire. Colorado has spoken
for itself. Nevada is Republican State,
and the chances certainly favor the Re-
publicans III California since the Jealous
support of Governor Hayes by Senator
Booth and the Independents whom he
represents. But the situation is not
materially changed If that State and
Oregon are called doubtful. The posi-.

THE FEELING IN COMMERCIAL CIRCLES.
LONDON, October 17.-Advices from
all the principal cities in Europe report
gloomy feeling prevailing in the fnan
cial commercial exchanges over the
situation in the East, and a prolonged
war probable.
INTERVENTION PROBABLE.
LONDON, October 17.-rne Eastern
difficulties appear to be increasing and
in view OF the serious aspect of affairs
the interference of the Great Powers
can not, it is thought, be much longer
delayed. 1t is stated on semi-ofticial
authority that Austria and Russia are
now negotiating for an alliance which
will result in those two powers inter-
vening to terminate the war.
ON THE EVE OF A EUROPEAN WAR.
LONDON October 17.-The correspond
ent of the Times, at Belgrade, discuss
ing the situation, says every diplomatic
agent here believes we are on the eve OF
great Eastern war. The only differ
ence Of opinion among them Is as to
whether it will commence in the spring
or almost Immediately. All outward in
dications seem to favor the latter idea,
which would give Russia and Servia
great advantages. Strange rumors are
current concerning the intended action
Of Austria.
