rich Board of Trade broker, Mrs. r. w. Rolo-
son, was attacked by these garroters directly
opposite the residence of Mr.. John B. Sherman
at the corner of Prairie avenue and Twenty first

that of the lady who was robbed opposite the
Jewish synagogue. Two we'll dressed garroters
rushed arouLd from the alley, tore the wallet
she was carrying from her hand, and then dis

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
1t Is Guarded with Care to Prevent Premature
Publication.


Publication.
National Republican.
The President received no callers yesterday,
and the mansion had Sunday appearance He
spent the day quietly at work on his annual
message revising the proofs and making addi-
tions. Great caution has been exercised to keep
IL from premature publication, and it is carefully
guarded at the Government Printing Office
Newspaper correspondents have made attempts
to secure it or some inform alton about it's con-
tents, but the potent charm of money that has
proven successful in the past years fails to work
this time The message, from a speculative
point of view would realize fully S. 000 and it
is said that one metropolitan paper has offered
that amount for it. But from present indca-
tons it would seem that the important document
will only come out in the Legitimate manner upon
its presentation to Congress-, and not before.
In 1880, when the last message of President
Hayes was being set up at the Government
Printing Office correspondent managed to
secure It; how and when no one knew, and Mr.
Hayes and a great many more people were sur
prlsed to see 1T published in half dozen Eastern
and Western papers two days before it was read
in Congress An investigation was instituted
and an attache of the Government Printing
Office was removed for completely in its publlca-
ton, but that was all there ever came of it. and
the correspondent now carries bank book as
the result OF his enterprise. In addition, he car
rles claim against a Chicago newspaper which
received the document exclusively for that city

lication of the document at the time it appeared
had many serious results, for half dozen street
brokers bribed an attache of the New York
daily which secured the message for proof
using the information to further their financial
schemes. President Clevelands message would
be very important at this time for it contains
recommendations which will have more or less
effect on the commercial world.

THE PERSHING CASE.
Details of Some of the Charges Preferred
Against the Reverend Gentleman.

Details of Some of the Charges Preferred
Against the Reverend Gentleman.
Pittsburg (Pa.) Special.
One of the most interesting church trials
which have agitated the church people of the
city is shortly to be begun in one of the promi-
nent churches of this city. The Rev DR.. l. G.
Pershing. q widely known and leading minister
for many years of the Methodist Church, is to
be arraigned for trial on an Indictment which
has already been drawn up, and which con-
tains not less than twenty-five specific charges,
among them fa'sehood. obtaining money under
false pretenses, conduct unbecoming minis
ter, and other charges based upon those named
1t is alleged that he obtained money from
the Clearfeld National Bank, of which ex-Sena-
tor A. j. Dill is president upon false represent
ations, and the principal witnesses which will be
brought forward by the prosecution will be ex-
Senator Dill and the officials of that bank A
committee of three ministers have drawn up the
charges. and will appear at the trial prescott
ors. There are many interesting points in the
case which will be brought out at the trial.
There has been strong opposition to DR.. Perish
ing, coming from a number of prominent minis
tiers of the conference. There have been many
efforts made within the last two years to have
him thrown out of his position as president of
the college. AS he holds his position through
lease of the college property, and as
heretofore most of the trustees and directors
have been his friends DR.. Pershing has been
able to meet every attack upon him with COM
plete victory. AT the last election of the board
of trustees anti-Pershing men were elected in
majority, so that his opposers in the conference
feel certain that at the end of his lease of the
college they will be able to have him removed
Some, however, are not satisfied with the delay
which this will cause, and would accelerate mat
tiers by openly bringing him to trial on the
charges specified above. There will be sharp
array of counsel at the trial. DIR. Pershings
friends claim that the matter was started in
order to bring the Doctor in bad repute, and
thus destroy his usefulness in the school over
which he presides.

The call to this city by the new society of the
Church OF the Convent OF the Rev. DIR. Mitchell,
of Buffalo, N. Y, is creating quite a stir in
religious circles. Dr. Mitchell is an exceedingly
able clergyman and first acquired prominence
as pulpit orator when he was the pastor of the
New York-avenue Presbyterian Church here.
On leaving that charge he went first to Brook
Ign. and then to Buffalo, increasing his reputa-
ton in each city. The new society by which he
has been called is an outgrowth of the church
over which he formerly presided. The chapel
for only chapel is built-is ocatsd in the
fashionable portion of the city, and the congre-
CATION will contain some of the most distin-
guished men in official circles. DR.. Mitchell is
now In the prime of his powers, and it may be
predicted that his ministry over the new society
will be very successful. Viewed from political
point, however, DR.. Mitchell is by no means pop
uiar with the Democrats. His recommendation
of the notorious DR.. Ball. the sanderer of Pres
ident Cleveland, was sufficient for the Democrats
to form of him an unfavorabe opinion.

threads with that blood. and passed these threads
through the ears of the healthy cows, numbering

the rest of the cattle of that village perished.
