called to order by Bishop Harris After prayer

nounced; 1.-THE Cathedral System in America, "
The first writer was Rev. H. H. Hart, NJ. A, of
Denver, Col, who held that the cathedral is
necessary to the bishop; without it he is like an
admiral without feet. He held that the cathe-
dral with schools attached is essential Rev. j.
II. Elliott, of Washington, D. c., the second
writer, confined himself to the expediency of the
system being enthroned on American soil. He
believed its esta blishment would be a retrograde
movement and independent Americans would
not be governed by it,
Rev. Woodward of Omaha was the first
speaker. He considered the cathedral important.
Rev Arthur Brooks of New York, opposed the
system as un-American. Others also spoke
briefly on both sides, and the morning session adj

Decision Under the Civil-Rights Law.

WASHINGTON, Oct 8-Judge Smell rendered,
to-day, decision in the civilrights case of
Emanuel Hewlett, colored, against John Fowler,
purser of the Potomac river steamer, Jane
Mosely." This was suit brought under the
criminal clause of the civilrights act for alleged
refusal to sell the plaintiff supper ticket on a
passenger steamer plying between Washington
and Norfolk, Va. Judge Smell, in rendering his
decision, said: '"rhe burden of proof is on the
government to show that Hewlett was refused a
ticket on account of his race, color etc. The
law has been declared unconstitutional so far as
the States are concerned, but is in full force in
the District of Columbia If the charge was
proven that complainant was refused ticket in
the District of Columbia, 1 should have no hest
tation in giving judgment against the defendant,
but in this case the government has not main
tanned the issue, and the defendant is dis
charged"

Special to the indianapolis Journal
MICHIGAN CITY, Oct. ga severe storm has
been raging in this vicinity since o'clock this
morning, completely wrecking one vessel and
forcing several others to seek refuge in Michi-
gan City harbor. TIE vessel wrecked was the
schooner Early Bird, with lumber from Muske-
gon for this port. She was entirely stripped of
her masks and rigging by the wind and water
logged three miles off this port, and with her
crew wholly at the mercy of the waves. She
was discovered at 8 o'clock this morning, and
Captain A. D. Campbell volunteered to go with
his tug, and picked crew to
the rescue of the sailors on the
wreck, though it was not thought
the brave captain would be able to make the
trip, as the waves were running mountain high,
and the wind blowing almost a hurricane from
the north; but it was matter of life and death
to the imperiled crew of the Early Bird and the
captain started on his perilous undertaking. His
boat was dashed about like an egg-shell but,
persevering he reached the wreck, and, with
considerable difficulty, rescued the crew, con
sisting of the captain and three men, and
brought them safely to shore. The tug and its
brave crew were received with loud cheers OF
approval on their return by the hundreds OF
people who had been drawn to the beach by the
news of the wreck and the perilous condition OF
the crew.
Much damage has been done to the docks and
harbor work here by the storm, and it is feared
other vessels have been wrecked, as several
that trade at this port are thought to have been
exposed

Proceedings of the American Board of Com
missioners for Foreign Missions.
COLUMBUS, Oct. 8.-The second days session
of the American Board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions was opened in the presence of
an audience that filled the spacious church.
Prayer was offered by Rev S. G. Buckingham,
D. D., of Massachusetts, After the reading of
the minutes, Secretary n G. Clark, D. D., read
special paper "Self-support of Native
Churches" The discussion of such theme
marks an advanced stage in the prosecution of
missionary work. 1t is the settled policy of the
board to create selfsupporting and so self
respecting churches, with the aim of laying over
upon them, at the earliest moment, the respon-
sibility of their institution.
After half hour of devotional exercises, led
by Prof John NJ. Ellis, of Oberlin, another
special paper was read by the secre-
tary E. K. Alden, D. D., on 'For-
eign Missions the test of Christian
Character" The other papers of the morning
were a touching and graceful tribute to the
memory of Secretary John o. Mears, D. D..
deceased, made by Joseph H. Ropes, of Boston,
and the scholarly inaugural of his successor,
Professor Judson Smith. A large number of
committees were appointed to report on the
different missions at a later period of the meet
ing.
In the afternoon, Rev. J. L. Withrow. of Bos-
ton, from the committee report of the home
department, made a telling speech, emphasizing
its recommendations. The report of the com
mittee on Secretary Alden's special paper was
read and enforced in eloquent remarks by Rev.
William NJ. Taylor, of New York city. Rev.
James Brand D. D.. of Oberin argued from
the statement of the paper that only one in 400
of the Congregational ministry was in
the foreign field, and made an effective appeal
to young students to consecrate themselves to
the missionary work Earnest speeches were
also made by Rev. Moses Smith, of Detroit;
Rev. George W. Phillips, of Worcester, Mass;
Rev G, A. Dickinson, of Lowell, Mass, and Rev.
N. A. Hyde, D. D., of indianapolis. The session
closed with vigorous paper by Rev. Fl. G. Hay

At the overflow meeting this evening, held at
