MAKES HIM LOOK LIKE A DUDE.
Friends of the Late Henry Ward Beecher Dis
satisfied with His Statue Now Being Made.

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-The statue of the
late Henry Ward Beecher, now being made
by j. @. A. Ward, and destined to occupy a
site in Prospect Park. Brooklyn, is about
ready for casting, but the relatives and
friends of Mr.. Beecher are said to be very
much dissatisfied with it. According to
one it bears no resemblance at all to the
great preacher. The position is a very
awkw ard one. and the clothes are so put
on as to lead one TO think that Mr.. Beecher
must have been a veritable dude. Many are
complaining because they have not been
invited TO see the plaster cast at all. not
w~ithstanding they were among Mr.. Beech
er's nearest friends. and contributed large
ly to the fund for the erection
Mr.. Beecher for more than twenty-five
years. and attended him in his last illness,
said yesterday that the only member of the
family who had seen the statue was Col.
William &. Beeeher. The widow of the
dead preacher had not been invited to look
at it. and had not lone so. DIR. Searle said
that he went to Mr.. Wards study on his
OWE responsibility. IL was disappointed
in the statue he added. "Thexright side
is good enough. but the left is very poor.
OF course l could recognize the face asthat
of Mr.. Beecber. but the likeness is not a
good one. The trouble is probably due TO
the fact that the photograph from which
Mr.. Ward worked was taken in n poor
light, and the LETT side suffered from that

A NEyER-ENDING CASE.
One of the Side-lssues of the Celebrated Ando-
yer Heresy Question Again in Court.

BOSTON, Dec. ia very large audience
assembled In the judicial courtroom this
morning to hear arguments in one of the
many issues of the celebrated Andover
hcresy case. The evidence was all in on
the charge that visitor Eustis, who sat in
judgment on Professor Smythe. was biased
against him and had so expressed himself.
Professor Dwight, of Columbia College,
summed up for Smythe. He claimed that
in the Eustis case there was a pr~e-leaning
toward the side Of the prosecution and an
utter want of decOrum out of court, and
that he plainly violated all the conditions
under which judicial power was vested in
him, and that the specific charges framed
as to his conduct have been proved without
any real conflict of evidence.
the charges of bias on the part of DR.. Eustis
were not made until six weeks after the
~latter's death. and not until a year and a.
excusable delay. which called for severe
evidence, drawing the conclusion that the
charge against Doctor Eustis had not been
proven.
Mr.. Barrows followed in behalf of Mr..
Smythe. He confined himself to the charge
that Doctor Eustis had formed and repeat
eddy expressed to divers persons the opinion
that the Professor was guilty of the
things charged, and quoted from the evil
dence to sustain this position.
Commissioned Robinson reserved his de-
cision.

~PAN-AMERICAN DELEGATES.
General Sherman Tells Them How They Can
Develop the Prosperity Of Their Countries.

NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-Thisis the first really
pleasant day the Pan-American delegates
have seen since they came to New York.
They breakfasted in q body at the Fifth
avenue Hotel at $50 o'clock, and at 1915
o'clock, accompanied by members of the
committee on entertainments. they entered
carriages and were driven to the Brooklyn
bridge. On either side of the line of car
riages rode an escort of mounted police.
They then drove across the bridge and
back, stopping at times to carefully inspect
1T and enjoy a view of the twin cities. the
river. the bay, and the Statue of Liberty.
IN their return the delegates were escorted
to the Equitable Life Assurance building,
where they partook of breakfast as guests
of President Hyde and the officers of the
assurance 'company. After breakfast the
delegates visited the Stock Exchange. and
thence went to the Chamber of Commerce,
where Charles s. Smith delivered an add
dress to the delegates. Senior Aragon. Of
Costa Rica, replied to Mr.. Smiths address.
General Sherman. the next speaker. said
that different countries differed In their
needs. 1t was. not the desire of the United
States to increase their territory. If the
delegates from other American countries
should see anything in the United States
that would help develop their prosperity,
tncy SnOulQ Recommend Inat tnelr countries
take example by such methods. Referring
to Brazil, the speaker said that at the CEN
tennial celebration of the Declaration of
Independence he had observed Emperor
Dom Pedro reading a o of the historic
document. The Emperor said to him that
his father had said: Read and study it,"
Gentlemen continued General Sherman,
'study our manufactures and commercial
affairs, and accept such AS deem wise
for your countries. To you we give our
whole heart and feeling. and may God
speed yOu.D
Ex-Congressman s. v. White said that
this was the first family reunion in four
hundred years. The United States re-
CURED no addition to its territory. What
was required and desired was q closer
alliance with contiguous countries.
Following the addresses an informal re-
ception was held. A collation. was served
and the visitors returned TO the Fifth
avenue Hotel. After dinner at the hotel
the visitors were escorted to the Seventh
Regiment Armory. where they witnessed a
drill and dress parade. The Mayor re-
viewed the regiment. Afterward the dele
gates attended the anniversary exercises of
the SpanIsh-American Literary Society, in

DETROIT, Mich, Dec. ia shocking ac-
cident occurred at the Tilden public school,
early this morning. while some sixteen

The costumes of the girls were made of

The Craft at Philadelphia Demands an In
crease in Pay, to 45 Cents Per Thousand.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 19.-Under the reso-
lution passed at a special meeting of Typo
graphical Union No. 9, on Wednesday
night, the officers of the union yesterday
sent notices to the proprietors of the morn
ing and Sunday morning newspapers af-
fected. that the demand for an advance in
the price of setting type from 40 to As cents
per 1000 ems would take effect on and after
Christmas eves The papers concerned in
clude all the English week, day and SUM-
day morning papers now paying the
union price Of 40 cents per 1000
except the Public Ledger, which
has been paying d cents per 1000
for many years. and several papers not re-
cognized as union offices. The number of
men directly involved is estimated at $50.
These, 1t is said, will positively refuse to
work on Christmas eve, and thereafter. I'M
less the increase is conceded. The after
noon newspaper men and the job and book
men are not included in the movement,
nor will they lend aid to the employers of
the striking printers in case the men go out.
This action of the Typographical Union
is looked upon with more than ordinary IN
terest in labor circles, inasmuch as the
printers are usually credited with being
conservative men, and in this city have
been heretofore free from conflicts with
their employers. Those who are foremost
In the movement to obtain an advance
maintain, however, that the time has come
for action which will compel the morning
newspapers to respond to the claims that
the men have been making for a long time
past. They assert that the union rate i'm
Philadelphia is far below that of most
other large cities. The New York men,
they claim, get Sd cents, without adver-
and New Orleans get 40, San Francisco,

st. Catharinee. Ont. As; st. Louis. 43; Pitts
burg, 42lo; Galveston. A.. 1t is understood
that the employing printers are not favor
able to granting the advance. They hold
that the type-setters arc better paid than
most skilled workmen, and have steady
work all the year round.

European Artillerists Greatly Interested in
scrpa Pinto's Doings in Africa.
LONDON, Dec. 19.-Major Serpa Pinto,
from an obscure Portuguese officer, has be-
come a person in whom all nations are in
terested. He has done more han to pro-
yoke threatenIngs of slaughter and con-
f~iscaticn from England. He has rendered
insecure all the Portuguese possessions in
Africa and India, and this at o time when
the reigning family is in tribulation of the
Brazilian troubles. But ali this is as moth
ing in the eyes of military men. for these
disagreements will almost undoubtedly be
settled after the necessary amount Of
vapOrings on one side and apologies on the
other. The circumstances that render
the Major an object of temporary envy of
enthusiastic artillery officers IN the German
armies and others is the fact that he had
such an excellent opportunity to try the
brave and confident enemy. To. be
sure. the Makololos are undisciplined
savages. but they are armed
by their allies. the English, and
against a force nnprovided with such unex-
pected and terrible implements of warfare
might have held their own tolerably well.
An exhaustive report from Major Pinto,
who is understood to be well qualified to
inform the scientific world lucidly how his
machine-guns moved down the M0kolol0s.
is anxiously waited by the stats of all the
great armies of Europe.
The British Admiralty, as an act of pre-
caution, in view of q possible straining of
the relations between England and Port
ugal regarding their possessions in Africa,
has made arrangements to transfer the
depOts and hospital stores for the Mediter-
ranean channel squadrons from Lisbon.
Orders were recently issued for the war
ship Agamemnon, now at Zanzibar, to re-
join the Mediterranean squadron. These
orders rave since been countermanded, and
she will remain at Zanzibar.
