all the world and substitute the following:
Because there is none other that fghtest
for us but only thou, oh, Lord"
Rev. Dr.Goodwin, of ofPennsylvania. thought
there could be no doubt, historically or exc
getically, that the words give peace in our
tirne," were used in the ordinary sense. He
did not think it was the idea we should get
at this peace by fighting.
Rev. DR.. Adams, of Wisconsin, said the ex-
pressed purpose of the organization of the
Roman empire was the restraining of war.
From the time of Charlenagne to the present
there had been more ravages and bloodshed
than during the Roman empire. No art was
more cultivated at the present time than
war; He believed somewhat in the prophe-
sizes of the gospel and 1.-The time would come
when wars would cease.
Dr.. Fulton's amendment and the Others
were rejected.
Rev Or. Battershall, of Albany, moved to
transpose the supplication and answers, 20
God, bless and preserve these United States,
and mercifully hear us when we call upon
thee" and, 20 Lord, save thy people and
bless thine inheritance" This was agreed to.
Clause six was then agreed to. Section 3
was then taken up. The section reads as fol-
lows: Substitute for the first clause of the
collect for aid against perils the words,
Tighten our darkness, we beseech thee, 0,
Lord, and insert the following rubrics i'm
mediately after said collect sin places where
it may be convenient; here followeth the an.
them. Save on the Lords Day the minister
may here end the evening prayer with such
prayer or prayers taken out of this book as
he shall think fit"
Rev. DIR. Henshaw, of Rhode Island,
moved to amend by retaining the collect for
aid against peril and adding after it the
rubric The committee rose and the House
of Deputies took recess. sd
A trip down the bay was given the depu-
ties this afternoon.
In the House of Bishops the venerable

thereafter adjourned.
There was no session this afternoon, and
there will be none tomorrow Most of the
bishops will participate in the conservation

STATE DEPARTMENT CLERKS.
The Secretary Points Out Some Things the

The Secretary Points Out Some Things the
Civil-Service Law Does Not Cover.
WAsHINGToN, Oct. 19-The Secretary of
State has addressed a letter to the secretary
of the Civil-service Commission, in reply %
an inquiry as to what branches of service IN
the several bureaus of the State Department
will require special examination for admis-
sion. He says, quoting ex-Secretary Fish,
that the clerical force of the department is
small, and should have the personal conf
dence of the head of the department, a
knowledge of international law, and pract-
cal familiarity with many foreign languages.
A power of reticence is also required, which
is ascertained only by the test of experience
or intimate personal knowledge of the per-
son, and cannot be determined by any ex-
animation by board. The Secretary then
goes on to say:
ut Is necessary that most of the clerks of
the Department OF State should have. at
least sufficient knowledge of one or more
foreign languages to read, in the original,
many documents; nevertheless it is not alb
solutely necessary that every clerk should
have this qualification as his ability in
other directions may more than compensate
Tor its lack, but it is always necessary that
twenty employees of this department should

stances l suggest that a special examina-
ton be given all applicants who may wish
to enter this department, which shall con-
form in some measure to the examination
heretofore at one time required in the case
of applicants for certain grades OF consul
lates and now required in cases OF appli-
cants for clerkships''
AT the request of the President the men,
bers OF the Civil-service Commission called at
the White House, this afternoon, and had
long interview with him. The object of the
conference is not known, and the commits
sioners are reticent, this evening. as to what
transpired. An Associated Press reporter
asked Dorman B. Eaton, president of the
commission tonight, what was the object
of the conference and what had occurred at
it. Mr. Eaton replied that he did not deem
IT proper for him to state what had occurred.
He said the commissioners had called at the
request of the President, and that the inter-
view was long one.

CHICAGO Aug. 19.-The markets are as un-
settled, apparently, to-day as ever, and the
depressing influences of increasing stocks,
almost an entire absence of consumptive,
shipping and speculative demand, alarmingly
frequent and heavy failures in the leading
manufacturing interests of the country, gen.
eral distrust and uncertainty all over the
world in commercial and financial matters,
and panicky condition of stocks and secu-
rites in the great money centers, are clogs
and weights bearing down all of the mar
kets. This, however, has been long road
without a turn, and with January wheat
pork and lard at the bottom notch, appar-
emily, the turn will come some time, for
these are low as compared with previous
years. Prices can, however, go lower, and
unless demand reduces our stocks before
the close of navigation, the increase
in freights to move the property by all
rail to the seaboard will have to be
taken off prices and the situation is now
favorable for Just that thing the result
being very likely, lower prices after the
close of navigation than before. 1t is sim
cerely hoped that such a demand may set

A DAY OF DEPRESSION.
All Speculative Markets Give Way, and
Everybody Wants to Sell
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

All Speculative Markets Give Way, and
Everybody Wants to Sell
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
CHICAGO, Oct. 19-It was day of great de-
preston on Change. Every speculative
market gave way, and prices sold off to the
very close under an entire absence of sup
port Wheat opened lower and broke down
1885, and was very heavy throughout. The
pressure to sell was enormous, and large
lots went begging for bids under the market.
The. entire wheat pit and the street was oc-
cupied by bears" and no buyers put in an
appearance. Failures East and West and
an entire absence of demand helped the de-
preston. A large amount of long" wheat
was closed out by reason of exhausted mar
gins and one well-known speculator lost
$50, 900 by the break in prices; there are ru-
mors that two other houses are also hurt.
Prices were still weaker on CALL and 100000
bushels were sold at about any price which
could be obtained
Corn slumped off one cent with sales of
nearly a million bushels on call.
Oats sold down Xc, and on call million
bushels were sold. McGeoch, who has
loaded up with great quantities of May oats
for the past month, is dumping his holdings,
and prices will go much lower. During the
day the break in cereals was checked for a
few minutes occasionally by the covering of
a few shorts, but the very bottom seems to
have dropped out of the market If the de-
cline continues tomorrow a panic can
scarcely be prevented Pork and lard eased
off little.
Many offices of commission men and
brokers were kept open until late hour to-
night, the clerks busy on account of sales.
This usually occurs when there is trouble
ahead. The holders of the 100000 bushels
of wheat in store here have already lost
100000 on the depreciation, and nobody
will buy it at the decline. Meanwhile, new
wheat is pouring in at the rate of 200 car
loads per day. Leading traders say tonight
that the situation is positively without hope,
and some of them are bold enough to talk
85 cents for wheat.

The Lieutenant Did Not Disobey Orders--
The Loss of the Yanticf


The Loss of the Yantic
WASHINGTON Oct 19.-The report of Lieu
tenant Darlington, commander of the re-
cent arctic exploration for relief of the
Greely party is a complete vindication Of
Darlington so far as any disobedence of
orders is concerned. General Hazen, in a
letter transmitting the report to the Secretary
of War, says: The structures made upon
Darlington in this connection are entirely
unwarranted."
In reference to the loss of the Yantic, Lieu
tenant Darlington confirms the statements
first made by Commander Wildes with re-
gard to the behavior of Captain Pixies crew.
At the first sign of danger, he SAYS those
on duty abandoned their posts and ran to
save their own property in the forecastle
AS soon as the stores began TO go over
the ships side they commenced to
appropriate everything they wanted, break
ing open and rifiing boxes and bags OF pri-
vate clothing and stealing their contents.
Captain Pike said in replying to Lieutenant
Garllngton'S protests, that he was pOwerless
to prevent this plundering of the snip, and
that the men of his crew were ''the worst lot
of ScoundrelS he ever saw
In explanation of his course in starting
instead of waiting for the Yantic, Lieutenant
Darlington says: First, that he did not be-
lieve the Yantic could get to Littleton island
through snch ice as they had encountered;
and, second that he expected to find at Cape
York the Swedish steamer Sophia. and to
avail himself of her assistance in carrying
out, as far as possible, Notwithstanding the
disaster, the plan for Lieutenant Greely's
relief. With regard to the much-discussed
supplementary orders, Lieutenant CARING
ton says:
"The only instructions ever received are
the original instructions published at the
time. An unsigned written paper was in
closed in the enveiop with my instructions;
this paper is simply an authenticated copy
of memorandum prepared by an officer in
the signal Office. l was informed this memo
randum was to have been furnished the Sec
retary of the Navy to form a basis of instrue-
tions to be given the commander of the YES
sci ordered to accompany the Proteus The
paper was not addressed or signed; indeed,
it bore no official marks whatever. | have
never, at any time, regarded it as an order
and | was surprised to find statement pub
lished that this paper was the supplementary

Bishop Green Bids the Convention Farewell
Further Consideration of the
Prayer-BoOk.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 19.-The House of Dep
uties concurred in the resolution adopted by
the bishops providing for joint committee
on emigration, to ascertain facts and devise
means to protect emigrants
The joint, committee on revision, in
French, of the Book of Common Prayer re-
ported it desirable to proceed at once with
the preparation of the new translation,
which was SO ordered.
The joint committee on devising means to
increase the benefits to the trustees fund for
widows and orphans of clergymen recon-
mended acceptance of the gift of Bishop
Whipple, of Minnesota, of lot near the CEN
ter of Faribault, on which to erect home.
Adopted.
The report of the committee on canons,
proposing an amendment to title l, canon 3,
refa ting to lay readers, was then considered.
The amendment grants them certain prlvi-
leges, such as making addresses and exhor-
tations exercising their functions in another
diocese and providing for restrictions in
taking out license.
The venerable Bishop Green, of Mississip-
pi here addressed the deputies. He wished
to bid them farewell, as in the providence of
God, he would never attend another con-
vention. He was the sole survivor of the
convention which met in this city sixty
years ago. There were then nine bishops,
now there are seven times that number.
What has God wrought
Consideration of the canon relative to lay
readers was then resumed. After a short
discussion the house went into committee of
the whole on the report of the joint commit
tee on prayer-book. One of the proposed
amendments to the first of the eight verscles
in section six of the fourth resolution re-

Mr. Stark withdrew his amendment, and

Money Entrusted to Broker Can Be Con-
Converted Without Risk

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 19-Wm. G. Barrett is
charged with embezzling $23, 600 as the
broker and agent of Capt Augustus Boyd.
The defendant was in partnership with a
man named Cattelle, who, it is said has fled
the city. The defense claimed that Barrett
could not be convicted of embezzling money
as a broker unless the funds had been depos
tied with him for safe custody and not as an
investment. The judge held this to be good
law, adding that, as $4,000 had been given
the defendant which was not part of the
general running account, and had been mis-
appropriated as alleged, he thought Barrett
should be held to answer charge of con-
