Resolution Introduced.

BOSTON, Nov. 10.
In the session of the National Grange, Pa
irons of Husbandry this afternoon, the COM
mttee on education presented report rela-
tive to letter which had been referr d to it
from Hon. VIM. G. Leduc, ex-commissioner
of agriculture, containing several sugges-
tios as to the best means of making the
meetings of oranges interesting and instruc-
tive. The principal way suggested was to
have regular and systematic readings on
different topics. and this was endorsed by the
committee on education, and recommended
to the attention of subordinate oranges. Gov
Robie of Maine, introduced the following
resolution which was adopted:
Resolved, That Congress under the pro-
vision of the constitution which authorizes it
to regulate the commerce between states, is
in duty bound to enact law and provide for
its enforcement which will break up the mo-
nopolies which are a burden to the farmers in
some sections of the state.
The committees accounts and digest
submitted their formal reports. The after
noon session was presided over by Overseer
Put Darden of Mississippi. j. J. Woodman
of Michigan, and DR.. J. NJ. Brandon of Vir.
ginia, were elected members of the executive
committee. 1t was voted to hold the next
meeting of organization at Philadelphia, Nov.
1886. At the evening session a memorial
service under the direction of Worthy Grand
J. j. Woodman, WAS observed on account of
members of the National Grange who died
during the year.

HIS LAST NIGHT.
Wilkenson Will Meet His Fate With
FOrtitude-The Gall0ws IN Position,

THoMAsToN, Nov. 19.
Daniel Wilkinson, who will be hung Fri
day noon, chatted and laughed with re-
porter for half an hour Thursday afternoon.
The only sign of realization that there as
but few short hours between him and eter-
NIFTY was slight tremor in his voice. He
occupies the same cell that Santore, the
Italian, had. As to the future, he believes
that all will be blank after the hanging. He
has evidently been scholar of Bob Inger-
soil, as in his talks with the chaplain he used
Bob's well-worn and useless arguments against
the christian religion. He thinks there is no
future world. Wilkinson does not say much
about his past life. He says his father
and mother do not know ANYTHING about his
situation, and he wishes to keep them III
ignorance of his fate. He says there il not
single person in the United States who he
can call his friend, md he has not sent word
to any of his friends ia England. "They
only hang negroes and foreigners in this
State" he exclaimed bitterly. He says he
would not wish to have Mrs. Barrows hung
because she is woman, but he thinks Blaney
ought not to be treated any better than he
1t is very probable that Wilkinson is not the
prisoners right name, and the world will
never know who was hung. The prisoner
sleeps soundly every night and eats as much
as ever. The gallows was erected today and
every preparation has been made for the ex-
ecutlon.

DISMISSAL OF REV. MIR. DOWNS
From the PastOrate of the Bowdoiu
Square Church.
BosToN, Nov. 10.

BosToN, Nov. 10.
A meeting of Bowdoin Square church
society was held this evening, at which the
following was adopted:
Whereas, the society is convinced from the
recent developments in the courts of the
commonwealth and otherwise that Rev. W
w. Downs has been guilty of grossly immor-
al conduct, and his character and reputation
are such to unfit him for pastoral office.
and to render it expedient that all relations
between him and this society be dissolved, it
was
Voted, that by reason of such conduct,
character and reputation, said Downs he and
hereby is dismissed from the office of minis
ter OF this society and from the employ of
the church.
Voted, that the standing committee be
directed to cause the meeting house of this
society to be closed for pubic worship forth
with, at the close of this meeting, and until
such time as they see fit to open the same for
such, and to take all needful measures to re-
move and exclude all persons therefrom.
Notice OF the above action was served up
on Rev. Mr.. Downs, who was in his study at
the church, and he shortly afterward took his
departure. He states that the society's ac-
ton was illegal, and was a surprise to him,
and that his future course is as yet undecided
upon. New locks have been placed on the
church doors, and tonight several policemen
are patrolling near the church, which has
been beseged bv crowds of people who had
come for the purpose of attending revival
meetings, which had been in progress there
since Tuesday.

WASHINGTON NEWS.
A Report from the Second Comptroller
of the Treasnry-The President Very
Anxious About the Confirmation OF His
Appointments.
WASHINGTON. Nov, 10

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.
The second comptroller of the treasury has
furnished the following statement in relation
to the claims dsallowed bv him in adjusting
the accounts of the pay director of the United
States Navy: The second comptroller dis
covered two vOuches, one for S275, purport-
ing to be for $40 five cent foreign postage
stamps, and the other for S35, purporting to
be for photographIng so autimatical speci-
mems for the naval dispensary. They were
both made out in the name OF woman, who
is an artist residing in Washington, and were
certified to and approved by Phillip S. Wales,
chief of the bureau of medicine and surgery.
The comptroller reports that an investigation
proved that they were both false and fraudu-
lent, and that the money was actually paid
for two crayon portraits of Wales, drawn bv
this artist, one of which hung upon the walls
of the surgeon generals office and the other
at his private residence.
The National Republican tomorrow will
have the following: The President, in con-
versation with republican Senator, Tues
day, told the latter he would esteem it great
favor if the Senators knowing anything OBJ
jcctjonable or detrimental to public interest
about any person or persons appointed by him,
would apprise him of the fact. The Presi-
dent expects fight will be made on his ap-
pointments, but believes the majority of re-
publican Senators will oppose any attempt to
defeat the confirmation, except in cases where
unimpeachable facts are presented, and that
If such cases exist, the objection will be call.
ed to his attention before there is any organ
lied objection.

says; "The opponents of the Bell Tele-
phone Co. profess to be very confident that
the decision of the interior department is in
their favor They admit, however, that they
have not received any intimatiOns which
would admit of their making any positive
statement. They don't understand that the
board will enter upon consideration of the
case until the expiration of the ten days
limit, within which permission has been
granted all parties to file briefs. The briefs
and records on both sides will be very long
and it is not expected that the record for the
petitioners can be furnished the department
in less than a week. A fact prominently
brought out since the hearing is that Prof.
Elisha Gray will undoubtedly endeavor to
secure a patent for the speaking telephone
on the ground that the invention is his
alone. Patent lawyers say that be has no
rights unless he can afiirmatively establish
the fact that there was fraud and colusion
in obtaining the Bell patent.

Full Particulars of the Wreck Of the
Steamer Brookiyn-Report of Captain
Mclean ofth Steamer Titanic, which
was Also Aground.

QUEBEC, Nov. 10.
Steamer Napoleon with passengers wreck
ed on steamer Brooklyn, has arrived here
Capt. Dale reports that steamer BROOKLYN
left Liverpool on the 29th of October. arriv-
ing at Bell Island on the 9Th inst, s 10 p.
NJ
They passed through the straits, making
Greeley Island light She took her depart
ure from there and shaped course for Heath
Point. The weather became thick after leav-
ing Greedy and a heavy snow storm set IN ON
Sunday at 6 As p. NJ. Suddenly she made
out something ahead and stopped, and went
full speed astern, but before the way was off
the ship took ground.
The gale increasing, the ship drove broad
side to the sea. She could not land until
morning and then she put all the passengers
on the beach and rigged tents and provided
provisions for them. They organized party
to go to Heath Point and went with them
myself, but owing to the heavy snow and
night coming on, We could not make anything
out and so returned. The next morning we
started another expedition which arrived that
afternoon at Heath Point, and | sent mes
sage to Quebec for assistance. The ship was
still in the same position but full of water.
On the 18th the Napoleon arrived and took
the passengers and crew off the island and
then took the furniture and moveables from
the ship. They left the island on the l4th
inst.
Capt. Mclean reports that the Titanic of
the Donaldson line left Glasgow the oath
While passing through the north channel
southeast gale came on, with "A thick mist
and drlzzling rain. At 6.l5 A. NJ, on the
3d. the ship struck heavily on Carlston Point,
Island of Anticosti. | Immediately dis
patched the chief officer and boats crew to
the west point of the island, to telegraph for
assistance, where they arrived the same
night. In the meantime everything was done
to try and float the steamer. We succeeded
in running out two anchors and also jettison-
ed large portion of the cargo to Tighten her.
but owing to heavy easterly gale that sprang
up the Sth, it was impossible to float her. as
the sea at the time was rolling clear over the
steamer fore and aft, and filling everywhere
with water. The crew were exposed to great
danger and suffered much from the exposure,
but behaved nobly and worked manfullv
throughout.
On Wednesday, the llth inst, the steamer
Relief came to our assistance. but too late to
save the steamer. They did their utmost to
pump the Titanic out, which was found to be
impossible, as the water in the holds rose and
fell with the ebb of the tide. On the l4th
another heavy gale sprang up from the east,
which exposed the steamer to great danger,
and obliged us to leave her and go TO Quebec.
1t is understood here that the wreck has been
abandoned.
