Committees Appointed - The Programme
for TO-Day-Personal &C., &C., &c.

BcIore the hour appointed for the assem-
bling yesterday morning OF the Southern
Baptist Convention, crowds around the place
OF meeting Uhe First Baptist church, showed
the delegation would be an unusually large
one, and by 10 O'Clock the lower floor of the
spacious audionce-room was crowded with
members while the galleries were packed
with visitors.
Vice. President L. r. Ely. Of Missouri,
called the convention to order, the congrc-
cation rose and sung the DoXology-
Prase God from whom all blessings fow,"
and Rev. DR.. II. II. Tucker, Of Georgia,
made a ierycnt prayer OF invocation.
THE VACANT CHAIR.
Professor Ely made feeling and appro-
PIRATE reference to the vacant chair Of DR..
Neil, paid him a brief tribute, and said that
%, would only occupy the chair until the Or
glnization was effected.
The congregation then rose and sung with
aWill, ~ Love Thy Kingdom, Lord" ar-
propratc Scriptures were read, and Rev.
Dr j. /. Burrows, Of Norfolk, led in a fer
vent and appropriate prayer.
WELCOME.
Rev. Or. George Cooper, pastor OF the
First church, made an appropriate and elo-
Quent address Of welcome. I'm behalf OF the
ten white churches OF Richmond, the pastors
of the city, and especially this old mother
church, who is proud all OF her nine dauyh-
terS, he extended a hearty greeting and a
warm welcome. He said that We are
brethren, whether coming from Name or
Florida. When twelve years ago the church
invited the convention they knew whom
they were inviting, and the convention
knew who bad invited them, for this was
not the first time by several that the body
had met here. We have mingled together
before. and are one IN faith and practice.
He fcelingly alluded 10 the losses S,fs-
tanned during the past wear. and especially
10 the death Of Dr. Nell and Rev. DR.. NJ. f.
Yates, OF China. They had been wont at
these annual gatherings TO communicate
with each other through the electric current,
but they have now met where they can "see
face TO face" and cablegrams are unneces-
Sary 10 tell each other their thoughts aud
feelings. lie fanclcd that they were talking
together to-day about this me sting, and he
knew that "though absent in body they
were present IN spirit"
lie once more welcomed the convention
TO the homes and hearts OF the people, and
ne felt sure that as Athens in the days OF
Periccs gave her guests "the freedom OF the
city, Richmond would give herself up 10
the brethren within her gates.
A RESPONSE AND A RETROSPECT.
Rev. 4. h. Cabauiss, Of Kentucky, for
mcrly missionary TO China, was called on by
the president, and made a brief and appro-
PIRATE response, in which he drew vivid
contrast between Richmond and this con-
yention as he saw them forty-eight years ago
when a student at Richmond College.

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-Mrs. Mary t.
Keep. divorced wife. of the late Charles

petitioned the Queens county court to
open the grave in Cavalry cemetery.
where Mr.. Keep is supposed to be buried.
IN order to furnish either evidence of his
deash, or evidence to support a claim

IS as follows: She was married to Keep
In 1872, and owing to Vaccinations by
Cuthoert Mills and Bridget McMahon,
was led to obtain q divorce in 1884
Bridget Mcmahon Their married Keep,
who apparently died In Junt, 1881, at
Long Branch. A will in Bridget Nc
Aahon's favor. dated in 1881, WIS then
produced. Mrs. Keep claims that this
was null and void, as in 1873 Keep had
made a will in her favor, and she
had furnished the money to start
the Wall Street News. She was
about to sue Keep to recover the
this money, and also about to apply for
snnullment of her divorce from him.
When Keep was reported to have died at
1<onA biaucu Su6 WAS prevented rom
seeing his body. She has an affidavit of
the ~janitor of the building in which
Keeps office was situated in New York,
that Keep was seen there the day before
his alleged death. The certificates of
death and burial misstate the age and
nativity Of the deceased. Keep had often
told her that IL cornered in any trouble
ne 0 feign death aud escape by the
aid Of friends. who would reporthim dead.
he had also declared, after his estrange-
ment from her bagan, that he would pre-
vent her In some way from recovering her
property. The business ia carried on
now the same as il Keep were alive, and
Mrs. Keep pnn IS that he is alive, and
In c%onspirac. ~ i Mills and his second
wife to detraa. her, or else that he was
murdered by them In order that they
might get control Of the property, which
is valued at $500, 000. This, she alleges,
would be possible from the alleged fact
that he was seen In New York the day
before his reported death. An order to
exhume the body will probably be
issued.

OF AIDED ROADS
DISCLOSURES MADE BY THE SPECIAL
RAILWAY COMMISSION.

n President Says that Any Plan of
settlement should Be Based Upon the
Substantial Interest of the Govern
ment-The Union Pacific.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE president
transmitted to congress reports of the
special railroad commission, accom-
panied by a message In which he says:
"These reports exhibit such transac-
tions and schemes connected with the
construction of aided 1Rads, and their
management, and suggest the invention
of such devices on the part of those hav-
ing them in charge, for She apparent
purpose of defeating any chance for gov
eminent Reimbursement, that any adjust.
ment or plan of settlement should be
predicated upon the substantial interest
OF the government, rather than on for
bearance or generosity. The condition
of the present management Of the Union
Pacific company has an important bear
ing upon its ability to comply with the
terms at settlement of its indebtedness,
which may be offered by the govern
msnt.n
After some rather pointed comments
on the manne In which directors have
bargained SO rs to convey to their pockets
all the assets of the companies, the presi-
dent concludes his message as follows:
1.-THE solving and determination of the
questions involved are peculiarly in the
province of congress. The subject has
been made quite familiar by congress
sional discussion. This is now supple
menfsd in a valuable name by facts
presented in the reports herewith sub
mitte-i. Public interest urges prompt
and efficient action.n

WASHINGTON, Jan. l7.-Speaker Car
Isle has not been well for several days.
n complained of feeling badly. Mon.
day evening while at the dinner table /.
the Riggs house, he was taken suddenly
and seriously Ill, and reached his room
with the utmost difficulty. DR.. Flowers
was promptly called in and p~ronouncea
the attack a chill on the congestiye order.
and administered the proper medicine
and advised the speaker to keep quiet for
several days, IS he was in great need
OF rest, and his nervous system wa,
greatly impaired. The illness of MI.
Carlisle will doubtless prevent him from
presiding over the house for the next few
days, and he may be compelled to give
up his trip to Georgia, whore he expected
to go Saturday to deliver his speech or
revenue reform.
Later-Speaker Carlisle has improved
considerably during the past three hours.
and his friends and physicians do not feel
nearly 80 anxious and distressed concern

Running the Customs Gauntlet.

OTTAWA, Ont, Jan. 1.-THE customs
department has discovered that q certain
kind Of bituminous coal from the Puts
burg region has been imported into
Canada as anthracite, and thus has es-
capped the customs duty of fifty cents a
ton. Itsbears q strong resemblance to an
thrscite, being broken up In the same
small pieces, and possessing as much
brilltancy as the anthracite. It takee an
e1pertsto detect the difference. One or
two consignments have gone through
TO Toronto. General instructions will
shortly be issued informing customs ofa-
