ONE FAMILY.

Rev. VI. b. Chapman. of Missouri. said
the gentlemen who have spoken have
somehow mistaken the meaning Of this
movement. There Is no expression OF
dissatisfaction with our mIssOnaries-nO
reflection upon those who have served the
Church anywhere. The amendment pro-
poses to do only what other great bodies OF
the family Of Christ have already done. II
proposes the appointment Of commission
SIMPLY to meet like commissioners from
other Methodist Churches 10 consider the
eXpedCncy OF adopting some plan by
which these various branches Of the Metho-
dist family will no longer eXpend their
energies in opposing each other, but,
dividing the world, each Will have It's
work and pursue IL without coming in
conflict with each other.
MIR. Chapman claimed TO be loyal 10
MethOdism, loyal also 10 the south, but
above all loyal to Christ and The Gospel.
(Applsuse.l "It Is time that strife should
cease, that all our energies should be ex-
pended in pressing the battle upon the
kingdom Of Sln." He was opposed to or
ganic union aud so was every man whose
name was appended to the amendment, so
far a. he knew, but he thought there ought
10 he more harmony in the action OF the
Methodisis. They should cease 10 set up
altar against altar.
DR.. Winfield. Of Arkansas. was opposed
To the amendment. He stood to-day, he
said. on the same platform Of the Church
a. when il assumed its autonomy and itS
name in 1874. lie could see no necessity
for this movement. God had blessed the
Cttrch. Its success had been almost mar.
Nellous. why, then, change its politys
Mr.. Winfield made strong speech, and
concluded amidst loud applause.
Mr.. Bishop. Of Texas, favored the amend
InCnt in an able and eloquent speech. He
said the amendment made no reflection
upon The missionary work Of the Church.
fl proposed to surrender nothing Of prin-
ciple. The amendment was designed 70
bring together In the halls OF the Monte.
zumas the Methodisms Of Mexico clasping
hands in a single and united Church for
the Mexican republic.
Mr. Bishop said such union would be
an economic measure as to men and money.
lie favored one Methodism In all foreign
fields. The amendment proposes that we
appoint commission TO meet and nego.
iiate with q like commission from other
MetbOdisms. II these negotiations fail,
what OF ity We have lost nothing.
Rev. DIR. Wiley, OF the llolst0n Confer
ence, Va, did not Intend 10 make aspeecb,
nor did he intend TO move the previous
question. He, however, proceeded until
he had made quite neat speech in oppo-
siiioB 10 the amendment.
DR.. Kelley, OF Tennessee, favored the
amendment. lie said there was no new
question raised by the amendment. II re-
affirmed the action OF the Cape May CON-
mission, and asked that the agreement then
made be extended 10 all parts OF the
Church. The consolidation OF the foreign.
Eion work was In harmony with the

The Galatea is an English cutter, 100 feet
long over all, with beam of 23.5 feet.
The preliminary races are expected to be
almost as exciting as the great race itself.
The day chosen for the Atlantic Yacht
Club regatta did not offer the most desirable
weather for testing the merits of the giant
sloops or any other kind of sailing craft, but
the race was sailed Sin any weather as the
rules stipulated. There were only light and
variable winds throughout the day and the
breeze that did prevail was most kindly to
the Priscilla. AS it swept over her stern on
the run out,and afterwards shifted sufficient
ly to enable the fleet to return home with
free sheets. 1t was an out and out Priscilla
day and the New York boat showed her
friends that they had made mistake in their
opinion that she could sail with free winds,
for short time after the start when the
wind was away aft the Puritan, that was al
ways beaten last year by the Priscilla on an
off wind, did some beautiful sailing and out
skipped the Priscilla and Atlanta. But this
continued only for a few miles, and after that
the Boston boats rivals had the best of the
running.
The Sight in front of the Atlantic Yacht
Club house this morning was most interest
ing. In the first place the fleet that was to
sail was imposing in size. Beside the regu-
larly entered yachts there were several that
had their canvas up, preparing to go over the
many steam yachts and excursion steamers
that also intended to follow the prize seek
ers
The race began under favorable circum-
stances, except as to the weather. 1t was a
heavy day, with clouds of moisture hanging
overhead, and only a light wind blowing
from the northeast When the gun was fired
to send the larger boats across the line at
1895 the Puritan, with j. Malcolm Forbes at
the helm, was right on hand. Her sails
filled eagerly and she sped into the race only
a few seconds after the booming The PriS-
ella was next. and the Atlantic last, about
100 yards apart. They each had their booms
swung away out to the starboard with spin
makers extending out on the other side, and
the great club topsails set. The other
yachts of the fleet went over the
imaginary line in more or less
proIniscuous fashion, with schooners Mon
tauk and ayling and sloops Thetis, Oracle
and Cinderella among the first. The yachts
kept in toward the Long Island Shore as
they scud before the wind, and as Fort Ham
ilton was passed the relative positions of the
boats were not much changed. The princi-
pal difference was in the way that the Puri-
tan had outstripped the others, and had as
sumed place over quarter Of a mile IN
front of the Priscilla. This was only three
miles from home. AT this point the Thetis
had gained on the Oracle, the Grayling was
oyerhauling the Montauk, and the Crocodile
and the Athlan were sailing at evens.
As the feet passed Fort Lafayette, the
schooners set their maintopsail staysails.
and the cloud of canvas was headed over for
buoy No. s, off Sandy Hook. The first boat
went around the stake-boat and anchored off
there like this:

THE CHICAGO SOCIALISTS.
Incendiary Utterances by the Broth
ers Of the Red Cross.

CHICAGO, June 15.-At one of the open
air resorts on Claybourne avenue, a Socialist
organization, lately formed under the title
of "Brothers of the Red Cross" held a
meeting and picnic Monday. Anarchism,
nihilism, revolt and plunder were advocated.
Not policeman appeared, nor was the meet
ing in anyway molested. Nearly all the
speakers were from abroad, for the reason
that Chicago's oratorical revolutl0nlsts are
in Jail or under cover. Among them were
Gustave Brinke of st. Louis, and Ernst Nj.
Fieghaum of Brooklyn.
Emil Verplanck said: What is laWs
Law is the code of tyranny. What are the
police? They are the minions OF the law
they are the arch tyrants, Gods! how ex.
ult in Chicago's heroic deeds of the night of
May 4th. Would that you had been better
prepared and that your engines of destruc-
tion had been more numerous. But the next
time-that next time which is swiftly COM
ing-we will tear the livery from these dogs
of oppression and hurl their barred and
grated citadels in the dust"
Thomas Murdoch of New York said, 81
gnash my teeth with unaYailing rage when
think Of the brave and noble heroes penned
in this prison of Chicago. Surrendered to
their enemies, their strait is desperate, and
their threatened fate must be terrible. Oh,

these outrages But our day of reckoning
will come, and Jyrants, one and ALL must
fall That double fiend incarnate, Schaick,
merits the most hideous and appalling PEN
atty, and he will feel it, too, if liberty ever
claims her own
1t is understood that another meeting of
the same character will be held next Sunday.

BASE BALL.
The New England League.
To-DAY's GAME

.
This afternoon the Portlands play the
Newburyports and good game may be ex-
pected. The veteran Daley will umpire the
game, and will also umpire the game next
Friday. Game will be called at $50.
PoRTLANDs, 8; NEwBURYPoRTs, 6.
The Portlands won yesterdays game by
their sharp base running, assisted by Haley's
skill in holding the visitors men at first base,
Haley was well supported by O'Rourke who
played first base, and after several of the
Newburyports had been caught mapping,
and put out they became so timid that they
waited for the man at the bat to help them
to second. Haley also made several fine
stops. Both the grounds and the ball were
in bad condition owing to the wet weather,
and slipping and number of errors ON both
sides are chargeable to this state of things.
Kearns distinguished himself by catching a
hot liner, and Cavanagh captured several
long flies. Beecher made good catch to
right field in the first inning. In the seventh
inning Shelter added run to the Portland S
score by sliding under the catcher just as he
caught the ball. Shelter stopped just near
enough to touch the plate with his toes but
he was there on time. Daley umpired in a
very satisfactory manner. The score:

Inc 1n6blS, AtSpuDllC iuu Sldl q
IN In the heat to Sandy Hook lightship the
Priscilla passed the Atlantic, Puritan, and
the Atlantic had to make, to the surprise of
all. one more tack to the round lightship
than the Priscilla After rounding the Pris-
ella shook out her jib topsail and headed up
the bay. The wind now made gentle slant
to fine eastward. The Atlantic rounded at
Oh. 2Sm. 10s /; the Puritan at 2h. Bonn. Then
came ''luffing match" between the Puritan
and Priscilla. Another surprise was in store
for the spectators for the Priscilla out point
ed the Boston boat as well as the Atlantic.
The wind hauled little more to the east
ward and the boats started sheets. The
Puritan and Atlantic hung out their
followed suit. This plan was found to be
impracticable and all spinaksrs were taken
in The Priscilla was now nearly half a
mile ahead. 1t had been also found that the
Puritan could not out-point the Atlantic in
Puritan by some short tacking forereached
the Atlantic and again took the second
place, still half mile behind the Priscilla.
Passing Promer beach the wind began to die
out The Atlantic once more passed the
Puritan. After that drifting match. The
Priscilla was somewhat Oyerhauled but won
easily, the Atlantic was second, the Puritan
although only half a dozen lengths behind
could not get past buoy No. 1S,off Fort Ham
ilton, which was the end Of the race OF the
giants, because the wind had completely
died out, and so the race ended. The other
yachts crawled up to their home marks at
