A Fight over Evolution.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Oct. 1.-THE fight
of the Southern Presbyterians over evolu-
ton has broken cut afresh. 1t will be
remembered that Rev. DIR. Woodrow Of
the Columbia theological seminary was
removed for teaching evolution. Last
week the Charleston Presbytery passed a
resolution %forbidding any member from
criticising the action of the general assem-
bly, in condemning Woodrow. Now
comes the state synod and condemns the
action of the Charleston P~resbytery, di,
reefs it to convene at Cnce and correct its
proceedings. Rebellion and repeal to the
general assembly is probable.

Indiana.
Judge Thurman Enthusiastic
ally Greeted.
Jas. G. Blaine Fails to Speak
Yesterday.
Thousands Were There.

Fort WAYNE. Ind, Oct. 1.-THE
day of the big Democratic barbecue was
clear and bright. The people of the city
and surrounding country thronged the
streets from early morning, and the morn
ing trains brought thousands. After
breakfast Judge Thurman appeared and
the thousands availed themselves of the
opportunity to shake him by the hand.
Besides the Judge there were many prom
inent visitors and citizens in carriages, and
the procession included veteran soldiers,
railroad men, visiting clubs, Fort Wayne
Democratic organizations, citizens on foot,
hunters and shooting clubs, butchers,
at noon, and after marching through the
streets went to the Hamilton fields where
three speaking stands had been erected.
Prominent along the line of the pro-
cession were Dandanna handkerchiefs,
dresses, coats and umbrellas OF bandanna
red, which gave a brilliant appearance to
the parade. Governor Gray, Senator
Voorhees, and ex-senator Mcdonald stood
with Judge Thurman on the hotel bal
cony as he reviewed the parade. which
took thirty-ive minutes to pass. One big
wagon carried a pyramid of handsome
young ladies dressed in bandannas who
waved and cheered enthusiastically in
response to the ovation given then by the
crowd.
When the carriage reached the speak
ing stands at 2 o'clock, 10000 people
were already on the ground, while several
Thousand more were soon added to the
audience.
The president of the day, John
Fl. Bass, introduced him, and he said: |

every day that l spent here has gladdened
my heart. Applause. A Democrat all
my life it would be impossible for me to
see the energy and patriotism of the party
here without feeling my heart swelling
with emotion and making me prouder
than ever of this great and worthy Dem
ocratic state. Enthusiastic applause. |

others of the patriarchs and saints of
Democracy that Indiana is safe for Cleve'

lieve the Book of Truth. Applause L.
The Judge excused himself from talking
further, saying he must a his voice for
tonight, and the party then returned to
the hotel.
The afternoon trains brought greater
crowds into the city. The streets were
lined with a multitude, and shouts for
cleveland and Thurman alternated
with cries for the state candidates. A
torchlight procession came first and was
reviewed from the hotel balcony, after
which Judge Thurman was driven through
the crowded streets to the rink.
During the parade an explosion of fire
works resulted in the fatal injury of Lo-
renzo Bourse, and the serious shakingup
of several others. Judge Thurman spoke
with ease in a strong clear voice for forty
eight minutes, and wa6 distinctly heard in
all parts of the rink.

Street Cars as Letter Carriers.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE Ameri-
ban Street Railway Association met to-
day and the delegates present represented
nearly every city of prominence. Presi-
dent Eolmes of Chicago delivered the an
nual address. The subject of carrying
mail by street cars was was considered by
the convention. Several roads running
between postofices have secured the des-
ignation of United States mail carriers by
the government. The only objection is
the distractions that occur from carts,
wagons and other traffic. A committee
has consulted with the postofiee authori-
ties and it was decided by the latter that
such designation shall be given only to
those lines running between postofhces.
The suggestion of the committee that let
ter boxes be placed In street cars TO facili-
tate distribution of mails was favorably
received by the authorities and suitable
boxes are now being devised for this pur-
pose. The strike question was vigorously
handled by the convention.

tor.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1.-THE steamer

A New England genius recently discov-

by combining with hydrogen and produc-
ing a solution called zinc water. This APP

 Just one more presidential candidate has been heard from, and he knows what he wants Gen. A. Servius Ct. Clare, of Bos- ton, Massachusetts, has published long manifesto, in which he argues that he is eminently fitted to fill the executive chair. He says that he and Garibaldi captured an Austrian army of 36, 900 men in the war for Italian independence. He further asserts that he is president of society which has 222, ,000, 900 members; that he has invented welfare of civilization, and that he has got forty-seven bills through Congress. He seems to be great man.

 Mr. Eugene M. Camp says in the Ameri- can that the entire cost of all news used in the papers in this country is $20, ,655, ,OO0 per year. This is curiously divided. The special bureaus, which are principally located in New York, with the right to look over the proofs every night of some of the morning journals, costs $345, ,000. This is divided among 100 of the leading provincial papers. The business of the Associated Press now amounts to $1 ,250,000 yearly, and that of the United Press foots up to $450, 900. These two sums, with the special outlay of tele- graph tolls outside of the organizations, place the total to all the papers of $1, ,920, 900 for this department. In addition to this, there are to be reckoned the special services of professional correspondents in adjacent towns and important centers, whose salaries aggregate $1,000,000 besides. This makes the total cost of all the service about $2,8S0,- 900 per annum. In the larger cities of the Union it costs all the way from $400 to $2, 200 week for the working up of local districts. MT. Camp reckons this yearly ex- pense at about $15, 500, ,000.

ITALIAN IMMIGRATToN-

Premier Crispi has introduced bill in the Italian parliament which is of interest to this country. It prohibits unlicensed agen- cies between the steamship companies and emigrants. The license will be placed so high that the padrone cannot ply his nefari- ous occupation at profit, and the result will be great lessening of immigration from Italy to this country and gain in the sort of immigrants that come over.
 During the first three months of this year 7,538 emigrants from Italy arrived at our ports. The story which comes from North ampton of regular agency for placing Italian laborers among the adjacent farmers at very low wages, and other recent events have drawn general attention to the rapid growth of very undesirable immigration. And there will soon be very general de- mand that something be done about it. The matter is very delicate as we'll as a very important one. Concerning it's treatment the conservative New York Commercial Ad- vertiser has this to say: Here the evil to be met is not essentially different from that which confronts us in unrestricted Chinese immigration. In both instances native or naturalized labor is threatened by a competi- tion that is dangerous and unfair, because 1t is content with gains which represent 8 scale of living that is inconsistent with American standards of the safe and proper, and moreover refuses to conform in habits, affections and desires to the American idea. It is 8 cruel competition and an alien one. It holds itself aIoof from national life, will not acquire our language, adopt our habits or identify itself with our destiny. Hence in the main this element resembles the Chinese; in both cases it is an invasion rather than an immigration. Still there are some important differences which call for variety in the treatment. To begin with, the race question does not enter here as with the Mongolian. Then we have heretofore always held out to the Italians cordial well come, so that policy of restriction would involve positive change of front; and that change might lead to serious political conse- quences and to general revision of our laws of hospitality which would affect our relations with all foreign nations. Hence the question is one that raises new difficult ties and should be handled with infinite prudence.
 With two thousand Italians destitute in New York city and laborers everywhere com plaining of unfair competition it is evident that the time has come to fairly and fully discuss and to effectively act upon a ques- tion which has rapidly grown more and more disturbing
