Report i'm Favor of Greenwich Time.
ROME, Oct. M.-The report of the geodetic
association was presented yesterday and adopt
ed after an animated debate. The report
favors the universal adoption OF the Green
wich meridian and also recommends as the
point of departure of the universal b our and
cosmopolitan dates the mean noon Of Green
wich. The conference hopes that if the whole
world will agree to the unificaton of longitude
and hours by accepting the Greenwich
meridian, England will advance the unifca-
tion of weights and measures by joining the
metrical convention of 1885. The government
of Italy will be required to officially communi-
cate the foregoing action of the conference to
all nations.

Foreign Notes.
A Berlin correspondent says the rupture be-
tween the Vatican and Cardinal Hohenlohe is
complete The Cardinal will probably remain
in Germany during the winter. The National
Zeitung hears that the Cardinals sudden de-
parture f,om Rome was owing to the failure of
his request for the removal of his coadjutor in
the diocese of Albano, with whom he had
every reason 10 be dissatisfied and to pecuniary
troubles.
A despatch from Alexandria says that the
Egyptians have completely defeated El Mahdi,
the false prophet.
a despatch from Tchesme says unless imme-
diate relief is forthcoming hundreds OF persons
whose houses were wrecked by the recent
earthquake will die from fever and exposure

The morning of the 18th was fixed for the
assault The batteries were ordered to cease

MIR. Ross ON Another FruitIess Search.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 24.-Christian X. Ross,
the father Of the abducted Charlie, is in this
city. He has been following up clue in
Madison county during the past two weeks. A
detective, named Price, had told him he could
find the boy, and they started out together.
Price said that man named Donnelly had
told him the boy was with negro family in
Wood River settlement, Illinois. Price left
Mr.. Ross one night last week, and returned
few moments later with bullet wound in the
leg, stating that he had been shot while at
tempting to rescue Charlie. Mr.. Ross is in
clined to believe that the detective shot him
self and was working him for money. He will,
therefore, not follow up the clue, and will re-
turn to Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 24.-Chrstian K Ross,
who has been in the West over two weeks, fol-
lowing q clue which he obtained month ago
from an official in Illinois, relative to the
whereabouts of his lost boy Charley, returned
home this morning. Mr.. Ross is very bitter
against the reporters, who gave publicity to
his movements in ST. Louis, and says he had
been working quietly and effectively, aided by
several gentlemen of prominence there, and
warrant the belief that there was more in the
clue than in many OF the hundreds of others
that he had followed SO fruitlessly. He thought
all would have gone we'll had it not been for
the public announcement of his presence
there. He hopes to give the matter his atten-
tion again, when he can work without any sus-
picion of his object.
He pronounced the story from Portland, Me-,
of the youth there who claims to be his son, an
old tale, which he had heard months ago, and
said that he had followed up that clue and ex-
nlodad it,

Am Insane Father Murders His Whole
Family, then Blows Ont His Own
Brains.
New CoMERsTowN, o., Oct. N.-Informa-
tion has just been received of horrible crime
committed ten miles east of this place. Albert
FINER murdered his wife and three children,
then blew his own brains out Finer resided
in Fryer's Creek valley. He was last seen on
Sunday evening, at which time he was very
despondent, owing to the doctor having ad-
vised him TO quit work on account of ill health
and he seemed to be much worried about his
family. Last night neighbor named Weis-
baum visited Finzer's house and found the
doors locked and curtains down. After sum-
moning the nelghbors the door was forced
open, when horrible sight was presented.
On bed in the corner of the room lay the
dead body of Mrs. Finer, her throat cut from
ear to ear. By her side was the youngest
child, cold in death, with its head crushed in
In little crib cot lay the two other children
with their heads crushed, while pear the win
dow lay FINER with one side of his face torn
off by the discharge of his gun. The mother
and child in the bed were lying as if asleep,
both being covered with quilts.
1t is supposed that brooding over his i'll
health and inability to work deranged FINGERS
mind, and that while his wife and children
were sleeping he murdered them and killed
himself, as there was no evidence in the room
that scuff1e had taken place. By his side was
an empty gun barrel with no hammer on the
stock. Holding one end of the barrel in the
flame of lamp which stood near, he blew out
his brains.

rent it, and tele phoned DR.. Gordon to come
there and see sick person. He came, and
