Preaching Service at the United
 Chur.h.
 Rev. Dr. Anderson, of Waterbury, con- ducted the services at the United church yes terday morning. The organist, assisted by MT. Murray, led the singing by the congrega- tion. The choir were not in their seats. As the Sabbath school takes it's vacation this month the orphans and their teachers were missed from their accustomed places. The attendance was large. The thirteenth chap ter of John from the twenty-frst verse was read for the morning lesson. The text was from the sixteenth chapter and thirty-second verse, Behold the hour cometh, veal is come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone; yet am not alone, because the Father is with me. :" However reprehensible the cowardly conduct of the disciples in desert ing the Master at this most trying period of his life, yet the speaker said the trial, condemnation and death of our Lord was then to be, and must have occur red. His lonely experience is that of us all. We pass from life to death alone. In our lives are frequent times of loneliness. Not so often in the days of youth while we are under the instruction of parents and teach CTS, but in manhood life when we act for ourselves periods pass in doubt and uncer- tainty in which no earthly friend or teacher can helplus. In loneliness many long sea- sons of doubt and mental self-confict are passed. Yet as Jesus was, when deserted by ali, not alone because God was with him, so we in like manner are not alone, but brought near to God. The questions as to our relations with him and in regard to our future life press upon us for peaceful set clement. Afterward, by the grace of God, comes the full assurance of faith, affording to our newly enlightened minds all the wis dom mad Many vaita6 at ha close of the service to speak and shake hands with the minister as old friends and acquaintan- ces. The reverend doctor is in fine health and voice, speaking and reading in loud, clear, reverent tone and manner beftting the day and the service.

 About three hundred persons were present at the open air meeting of the city mission near the corner of Frank and Washington streets yesterday afternoon.

Pease through the month of July and over one hundred families have already been found without any regular church attendance or pastoral care. During the past month open air meetings have been held every Sabbath and sometimes on week days also. Addi- tional meetings have been held during the week in private houses in the evening Last week Rev. MT. Mossman received a letter from Rev. MT. Mutch, pastor of the Howard avenue Congregational church, offering the use of their chapel for these evening meet ings when not occupied for the regular meet ings of the church. This offer has been ac- cepted, and beginning this evening meetings will be held in this chapel (corner of Howard and Columbus avenues) every evening dur ing the week, the regular meeting of the church being held on Tuesday evening. All will be heartily welcome at this pleasant chapel, and it is especially desired that Christian workers of any church in the city be present to assist at the meetinps

One of the most important financial move ments of the day is the negotiations pending between the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad company and the bondholders of the New York, West Shore and Buffalo Railway company. The advertisement in another column of Drexel, Morgan & Co.,, detailing the agreement for a 475 years lease, is found well worth reading, not only by those financially interested, but by the public in general.

uoNoRs TO THE DEAD HERO.

The Grant Memorial Service to be
 Held at the Center Church-Admiral
 FOOte Post to Attend the Funeral
 in New York.
 At the regular meeting of Admiral Foote post on Saturday evening, the arrangements for the Grant memorial service to be held at Center church on tomorrow (Tuesday) even ing were announced. These services are to commence at 8 o'clock and will consist of ap- propriate musical selections by the choir and Newman Smyth, Rev. Dr. Goodsen and other able speakers Seats will be reserved for the Grand Army posts of this city, the Women's Relief Corps and the Sons of Vet erans, also for His Honor the Mayor and members of the Court of Common Council, the heads of the different departments of the city government and the clergy of the city His Excellency Governor Harrison will preside.
 The very general desire of the people of the city to acknowledge the services of the illus trious commander and to honor his memory, as well as the interesting character of the ex- ercises themselves, make it quite probable that the church will be none too large for the occasion.
 Admiral Foote post will assemble at o'clock p. m. on Tuesday at the State House preparatory to attending these exercises
 Arrangements for the conveyance of the post to New York to attend the funeral of General Grant are as follows: The post will assemble at the Union depot on the morning of Saturday next and will leave promptly at 6 o'clock by special train The Consolidated road have agreed to furnish the committee with tickets at $1.75 for the round trip, good going down on the special train only at the hour named, and good to return on any week day train on or before Tuesday, the 11th inst. These tickets can be procured on and after tomorrow (Tuesday) of either of the following committee of arrangements: Com mander Sharpe, Junior Vice Commander Gee, Comrades Wines, Hubbell and Bouton. One generous comrade, who declined to have his name published, has given Commander Sharpe $175O to pay for tickets for ten comrades whom the com mander may select from the post member ship, thus allowing this number of old sol diers the mournful satisfaction of attending the funeral of their beloved chief, which but for this timely gift they could not have done. There are many others in the post that will be deprived of the privilege of at tending the funeral unless material aid Is rendered them in this way. No doubt therc are many among our wealthy and patriotic citizens who need but hint to contribute the funds for the purchase of one or more tickets for the worthy poor veterans Commander D. W. Sharpe, who is in the employ of the New Haven and Derb, railroad company, would no doubt see thai such donations were suitably acknowledged and iudiciously distributed.
 The post on Saturday evening voted fifty dollars to the Grant memorial fund to be forwarded to the monument association through it's secretary, R. T. Greener, No. 14t Broadway, New York, and not fifty dollars for the memorial tablets for the soldiers anG sailors monument on East Rock Park as stated in the Sunday Register.

THE POLICE CORRESPONDENT Alderman StrOuse Relieves His Mfnd-He Did Not Call Them ssNIicks.,s

Alderman Strouse Relieves His
 Mfnd-He Did Not Call Them
 ssNIicks.'s
 This evening at the meeting of the Board of Aldermen the question as to who is to be police commissioner in place of Chief Boll- man will no doubt be settled. As predicted by the COURIER on Saturday morning there is in prospect the liveliest kind of fight. In fact the skirmish line is already advancing under the leadership of Captain" Strouse, and they expect to drive in the pickets and meet the enemy in force this evening. If in time they expect to route the enemy and come off the field with colo1s flying to the tune of ''Watch on the Rhine."
 Alderman Strouse has been inter viewed in regard to his position, and if reported cor rectly he thinks the German element in the Democratic party has been set down upon very severely. He u ldthfully says that with the election of MT. Shannon the German Democrats will be without represen- tation on either of the city boards. He says ''the German-Amelicen citizens must stand together in this fight or they never will get anything" The Register on Saturday stated that Alderman Spreyer was going to stand by the caucus nomination, and this Alder man Strouse emphatically denies. He says that Charley" SpIeyer cannot afford to do such a thing.
 There are some things in the inter view re, ferred to that MT. Strouse emphatically de nics, as will be seen by the following
 CARD
 wish to state through your paper that the interview held Saturday with the Union representative is true in some respects, but that used the word sFMicks" or spoke of the Irish in a vindictive split, as the Union so published, is wholly untrue and arose from the imaginative mind of the reporter. always have considered the Union antag onistic to any views that I may express. In conclusion I would state that I did not speak of the Irish in any but respectful way and not in the terms the Union would like to convey, but as German I only ex- pressed the sentiment and rights of the Ger man Democracy. I. STRoUSE.
 The friends of MT. Shannon do not appa- rent1y feel in the least disturbed over Mr. Strouse's movement to defeat, as they say, the will of the majority expressed in caucus on Friday evening. They say that he has no following except in his own imagina- tion and that he will get "badly left" this evening.
 Ex-Commissioner Bollman, who is the inno cent cause of all this trouble, ,donned his new uniform and assumed the duties of chief of the police force on Saturday. For a few days he will be engaged in getting posted regarding the routine business of the office and will then be ready to make such changes as the good of the de- pertinent may seem to demand. Yesterday the new chief went on a tour of observation to East Rock Park with view to informing himself as to the class of people who visited there on Sunday and their general behavior. It is generally predicted that the new chief will prove very efficient officer and that the general good discipline of the depart ment will be maintained and perhaps i'm proved under his management
