Bishop Ravens Death

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-Bishop Harris, of the
Methodist Episcopal church, said to-day, in
the Bishops room of the Methodist Book
concern, that he had telegraphed Bishop
Wiley, at Leadville, Col, asking him, in
view of the death of Bishop Erastus Otis
Haven, which occurred yesterday at Salem,
Ore, to take charge of the immediate work
to which the latter was assigned. Bishop
Wiley had not replied. The death of Bishop
Haven caused temporary embarrassment on
the part of the higher clergy of the church,
inasmuch as the former had so many official
engagements of consequence, including the
holding of conferences. He was to have pre-
sided at the Columbia River Methodist Epis-
copal conference at Colfax, Washington Ter
rltory, which opens to-day, and he was also
assigned to the Oregon conference, which
meets at East Portland Aug. IS, the Southern
California conference at santa Barbara Sept.
1, and the California conference at
Sacramento, Sept. s. Bishop Harris, in the
absence of his seniors, Bishop Simpson, now
in Europe, and Bishop Bowman, who had
gone to China and Japan. has the authority
for rearranging the work interfered with by
the death of Bishop Haven. Bishop
Andrews, for instance, will in
consequence have to attend two confer
ences of the church before his OVID meets.
Besides Bishops Simpson and Bowman, already
mentioned as being abroad, Bishops Warren
and Peck are also in Europe, SO that an ad-
justment of the work of the board is some
what difficult, but will be arranged by
Bishop Harris in few hours. Nothing
further concerning Bishop Ravens death had
been received at the offices in the Methodist
Book concern. The Methodist Episcopal
clergy of this city will soon take appropriate
action in regard to the event.

Gaabetta and the French Senate

Paris, Aug. 6.---The Journal deS De
bats, the Nineteenth Century, the Pair,
and the Pdrlement disapprove of Gam
betta's suggestion in regard to the con-
stitution of the French senate.
LONDON, Aug. GA Berlin correspon-
dent of the Tines, discussing Gambetta's
speech at Tours Thursday night, says /;
The speech gives no real programme.
The chief passages contradict his former
utterances. At Cahors he declared that
the senate was one Of the supreme re-
sources of the country, and that its con-
stitution must not be touched, as it was a
source of strength Yesterday he pro-
posed the abolition of the senate. What
ever form he implies to modify the mode
of election of the senate, to inter-
fere with the life senators, or deprive
the senate of any influence in financial
questions, is virtual abolition. Such
striking contradictions are not calculated
to elevate the political spirit of the coun-
try. 1t is more evident than ever that
Gambatta must take Il ministerial office
and create that homogeneous majority
which the country can only elect if it has
an avowed and active chief to direct it
and introduce the great reforms he says
himself the country wants, and which he
has too long left to others the task of
providing

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 6.---The intense heat

this afternoon by the wind %eering around

the pleasing change will continue for at

A number of exporters, millers and flour
dealers presented a protest against the
new standards, on the ground that they
are lower than those which have pre-
viously prevailed, and calculated to in
jure the export and milling business of

4 World Convention of Irishmen to Be
Held Next Year-Delegates in Chicago
from Ireland
CHICAGO, Aug. 6.-The convention Of
Irlshmen continued their session through
out the day, and even at midnight they
are still sitting with Theoretically sealed
doors. Tonight the first really reliable
information is given out. The Rev. DR..
G. G. Belts, of St. Louis, is chairman of
the meeting, and Mr.. Hines, of Chicago,
who was reported as beng chairman,
says he is not even a member, but is
consulting attorney. Delegates are
present under assumed names) from
Glasgow, Dublin and several Irish cities.
The gathering has been engaged tonight
in selecting governing body, who shall
prescribe the mode of proceeding for the
future, and call a convention of Irish
men from every part of the world to- be
held at some place not given out yet in the
year 1882, on the anniversary of the date
when the Grattan volunteers obtained
a victory for Irish independence.
The gathering will, it is expected, be
the most important and decisive of any
in the history of the Irish race. The
delegates are united in denying that they
represent the dynamite idea, but agree
that they are willing to use even that dire
agent against the actual army of occupa-
ton. They say no royal scion has been
singled out for destruction.

Canada Simply a Hating Place.

The figures of the census taken in the Do
minion of Canada, which have just been pub
lished, show that the population of the coun-
try is 4,350,00 an increase of 900 over
the figures of 1871. But this
increase includes the population of Prince
Edward Island and British Columbia which
did not belong to the confederation in 1871.
The actual increase in the four old provinces
of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and
Nova Scotia is 54S, 5000, the population being
4,O33 600 against 8, 4S5, 900 in 1871. Accord
ing to the dominion and provincial emigra-
ton returns, the number of new settlers
entering these provinces has averaged ABOUT
$4,000 year, so that either the natural in
crease has been offset by the emigration of
native-born Canadians to the United States or
the Old World emigrants have simply made
Canada hating place on the way here. The
population of Manitoba, the Northwest terri
tories and British Columbia in 1871 was esti
mated at $4,000, including Indians. 1t is now
given as 100000, and even if the in
crease Of 200 is wholly due to migration
from the older provinces, there is still large
deficiency in the latter, allowing for natural
increase and Old World emigration, which
must be credited to the steady flow of popula-
ton from old Canada to this country

PoF;tfcas Question in Spain.

MADRID, Aug. 6.-The approaching
elections are giving Senior Sagasta and
his colleagues some anxiety. The oppo-
sition shows increasing boldness, and the
candidates patronized by several of the
ministers are very lukewarm. Sagasta
has consequently given the home secre-
tarv leave of absence, and will himself
take charge of the home department I'M
til the eve of election. The prospects of
the creole election and of that in Porto
Rico do not satisfy the cabinet.

discussion Of the Gran question, and stated
that the people attached great importance
to the friendship of France on account
of North Africa, where he thinks mus
selmen fanatics are preparing a sort of
semi-religious war Of races, that must
eventually spread 10 Morocco and may
then call for active Spanish in
tervention. A close union with
France might check the resistance
of England at Tangiers and Gibraltar
He thought, too, King Alfonso would do
well to visit not only Ferrol, but Car
thagena, San Fernando and all his arsen-
ais this autumn, and stimulate the mill
tary and naval organization, to which
acertain impetus will also be given by
his majesty's work on the future military
resources of the country, just completed.

to mobilize, some day she might retain
her old place as Il great power and give
