The accused were coored men, and Their

Amid the excitement of political campaign
the Church Congress of the Episcopal Church
holds it, sixth annual session ~ Albany this
week. beginning on Tuesday morning II is
interesting in looking over the list Of topics
announced FOR discussion to observe bow per
sistcntly the practical aspects OF Chris anty
present themselves as the subjects Of vital in
tcrc,t To the Church of to. day. In nothing
does the Episcopal Church vindicatc it's night
10 be, in the eyes of the general public, more
than i'm the disposition which il manifes's, III
it, congros scs and councils TO be- abreast of
the times. The strong conservative element
which has kept the Episcopal Church stead
fast 10 its crccds and liturgy has of late years
blossomcd out into fruitful efforts 10 apply
ancient principles to modern wants. Thus In
this coming Congress we notice that among the
more strictly ecclesiastical topics of The
Authority Of Dogma " The Personal Work
4" of The Holy Spirit etc. thCc come to the
front such subjects as The Relation of Social
Scicnc. To Christian Etiiic Communism
land Republican m~titutionS,' Positive
"ChTistian Elucation," and Observation-Disclosures
at Church, its Causes and Remedies Topics
like these are spoken of frequently in society.
aging sign of the times when they are deemed
of sufficient interest to ecclesiastical bodies to
take their place side 10y side with strictly
theological themes, and TO command the at
tention Of the sO-callcd religious community.
We are glad to note also that these practi-
cal and social problems are not turned over
for discussion simply to laymen on unknown
clergymcn. The list Of speakers in this n in
former congresses contains the names of prom
inent bishops, professors, laymcn and parish
cleIgymcn In whose hands the various subjects
will bc ably treated from many different
points of view. The Episcopal Church is to
be congratulated upon having started and
kept in motion an institution like the Church
Congress, where the Church and the comma
nifty meet on a common footing. where all
schools of thought find free utterance, and
topics of living interest are sure of vigorous
and varied discussion.

unnecessarily beaten 10y Police Captain Williams
and by Policeman Fleming. has taken a satisfactory

having been instituted by Smith against the officers

max be modified npon trial of the cause by the ties

self made "A complaint to the Board Of Police
against Patroman Fleming. in which he officially
declare. that Smith was beaten without any cause
or provocaton.' This shows that irimd tdcie u
wanton assault was cOmmItte /. Ii Is an unpeas-
ant circumstance that the pairolman Vas acting di
rectly under the eye of his superior officer. But the
case Is to go to jury for fair hearing. and the
verdict will lee awaited with interest.

here. Last week. 100000 bushels were re-
ceived. and S,O6S,0O0 bushels were sold !;
during the previous week. 100000 bushels
were received, and 9,2l6,O 900 bushels were
sold and during the week ending September
II. ONLY 1890 bushels were received,
and 9,159, 900 bushels were sold. In fact,
the sales in this one market have been larger
within the past seven weeks than the entire
receipts mt I'LL the Atlantic scapOrts, by
about 10000. 600 bushels This shows how
great has been the activity OF traffic, and the
.pccnlaiivc purchases have evidently been
much greater than all the PURCHASES OF actual
wheat IN the line of movement to consumers.
In all these transactions, however, little cur
rcncy * used, while the checks given and re-
ccivcd rapidly swell the exchanges OF the
banks. Bank credits are drawn upon sharply
in the buying and selling Of three or fonr
times the quantity OF products that Is really
moved through this market. The wheat mar
kct had sharp reaction at the close of last
week. and it h. probable that dealers IN other
products will also be reminded that they can
not expect prices t. rise continually or with
ont limit.
Behind the great speculative activity, which
is apt 10 hc checked 10y natural laws there Is
also an cuo7mpus development in the volume
of |, Ultimate AMI beautiful business. Crowded
streets and ferries. busy factories and mills,
and railroads fairly blocked wirh excess Of
lrgh offered. all bear witness that the revival
OF buSn,s, is real and general. That part OF
tie improvement Is substantial and lasting.
More men and women find paying employment,
ana the people employed are able TO consume
more freely OF the products OF the labor OF
others, than at any provious time in the history
Of the country. In a single year of prosperity

cred all that it lost during 1--WE weary years OF
