HARrFoRD, June 24.-The baccalaureate
sermon at TRINITY college was preached this
evening by Rev DR.. S. D. Mcconnell of Phil
adelphia from the text, 1.-THE chief priests
and the scribes sought to lay hands on him,
but they feared the people, The words
were taken as illustrating the attitude of some
of the educated men in ali ages toward Christ
and the fact that religion, which for US means
Christianity, finds its strength in the hold
which it has on mankind. The faith is abso-
lutely secure not because of the arguments of
its defenders nor because, of the efforts of re-
Cancellation, but because. Christianity Ia
lodged with the people SO that it is idle for
any man or set of men to think of disturbing
it. The purpose of education is to teach the
humanities to make men human and this
gospel is profoundly human. It holds q
moral responsibility and knows that some
thing more than knowledge is needful for the
welfare of men. If ever we lose our faith in
God it will be because we have lost our SYM
pathy with men. The dominant influences
are Christian and men will ever continue to
pray to the father who IL in heaven.

The Convention Unable 90 Make n
Nomination.
CHICAGO, June 24.-Another day passed
yesterday without . nomination being made
by the Republican national convention. Two
sessions were held, but only two ballots were
taken, and those at the morning session.
When the convention assembled yesterday
morning 1t proceeded at once to ballot.
When Connecticut was reached one vote was
cast for Mr.. Mckinley, whereupon Mr.. Me-
Kinley at once arose and said he was here in
the interest of John Sherman, who was the
unanimous choice of the convention in his
State. He could not, in justice to Mr.. sher-
man or with honor to himself, countenance
anything which would be ground for anyone
even to suspect his loyalty to the Senator
from Ohio, and he therefore demanded that
no delegate who would not cast reflection
upon him should cast q ballot for him. The
ballot then proceeded, showing, in addition
to an expected gain for Harrison, very de-
cided increase in the Alger vote, coming
chiefly from the South. The ballot resulted
as follows: The official vote as announced
Alger 1876, Harrison So, Gresham 9S, Harri-
son BIT, Sherman 235, Blaine ~, Mckinley
II, Lincoln !, Douglass 1, Foraker l. On
tnlS DalloG COuuectlcub gave AiS6r Il Al1lson
6, Gresham 4, Mckinley 1. New York gave
Harrison SO, Blaine 8 and Sherman /. The
fifth ballot was then proceeded with, showing
but few changes, Connecticut this time Civ
ing Alger 2, Allison 6, Gresham and Nc
Kinley /. New York gave Harrison So,
Sherman 1, Alger 8, Allison and Blaine 9.
After the fifth ballot had been taken Cover
nor Foster of Ohio moved a recess until four
O'Clock and his motion was seconded by Mr..
Duffield of Virginia. On behalf of New Jer-
sey Senator Sewall demanded roll call,
which was Immediately proceeded with.
When Missouri was reached in the call of
States it was 30 evident that the motion
would carry that Senator Sewell of New Jer-
sey withdrew his demand for the call and the
convention adjourned until 4 o'clock.
When the convention reassembled at eight
minutes past four Mr.. King, of Maryland, at
once moved that an adjournment be taken
without a ballot until IL O'Clock Monday
morning. Tho roll of States was at once
called on the motion, which was announced
by the clerk as 496 for adjournment to 322-
against Connecticut gave six votes for and
ave against adjournment. New York voted
solidiy for adjournment. Secretary Clisbee
then announced that all tickets issued by the
railroad companies win be honored until the
day of the adjournment of the convention
and one day after, by order of the Central
Traffic association, which was crested with
tremendous cheers and the convention at
once adjourned till Monday. The Ave bal
lots that have been cast so far stand as fol-
lows.

The Yale base ball team played wonder
full game at Cambridge on Saturday defeating
Harvard to o. Stages rheumatic arm did
great service. He stood in the broiling sun
and moved down the Harvard batsmen with
such apparent ease that the ten thousand
people present were sick at heart to see their
fayorites thus treated. Campbell was the
only one who could hit Stagg, but he spoiled
his batting by errors. Willard and Henshaw
hammered the air and tore holes . foot or
attempts to hit the ball.
One of the features of the game was Hunts
batting He made &0ur singles. He can
now play lawn tennis the rest of tina season
and nobody will say word. With Nc
Conkey it seemed to be different. He can
hit tennis balls squarely in the nose, but
when it comes to hitting base ball he has
been all at sea. In both games at Cambridge
he has failed to place the ball safely.
Bates pitched q good game up to the fifth
support of Stagg was superb. Every ball
that was pitched was covered with needles,
but Damn didn't drop them.
The CoURIER's advice in changing the bat
ting order was followed, and It
worked to good advantage. The two teams
are now tied for first place, and whichever
wins tomorrow will take the championship.
There are great many uncertainties about
base ball. HarYard's enthusiasts thought
their team would surely win on Saturday.
Now Yale's supporters are equally as conf
dent AZ to t0-morrow's game.
NYale should win. Something unforeseen
may occur and abe may lose. It viii be either
. glad ora sorrowful day for Yale. Watch
the results

0bjeeffen TO Another Will.

Is is not at all faenEobable that there will
be another viii case iNthe courts soon and it
is exciting considerable interest in Hebrew
circles. Ex-Judge Stoddard >has appeared
before Judge Robertson of the Probate court
and objected to the probating of THEY'LL Of
the late Joseph Rothchild in the interest OF
the daughters, Mrs. Charles Mann, Mrs. WoH
Williams and Mrs. John Williams of this
city. At his death his sons, Louis and Sam
usl Rothchild, now carpet dealers ON Grand
avenue, were appointed executors of the
property, which was estimated to be worth
$50, 900. By the will the widow is to have
the use of the property until her death. At
her death the estate is not to be divided, but
the income is to be divided equally among all
the children. The objection to the will is
probably because the daughters want tine
property divided on the death of their mother.
The executors have engaged Attorney Strouse
to defend the will and July 5 will be the day
for the hearing
