The hnhonx Conference.

LAKE MoHoNK, Oct. AT the session of
the Mohonk conference to-day DIR. Lyman
Abbott, chairman of the committee on reso-
lutions, reported the annual platform. 1t
reaffirms previous utterances, approves the
general plan outlined by Commissioner Nor
gan, for comprehensive and compulsory edu-
cation by the government in harmony and
concurrence with the work of the churches
and philanthropic societies. Another plank
asserts that as the high character of those
engaged in the work of Indian education and
the permanance of their tenure of office are
essential to substantial progress, the confer
ence emphasizes the necessity of separating
absolutely the appointments of such officers
from the mutations of parties. On recon-
mepdation of Miss Robertson, a missionary
among the Greeks in Indian territory, reso-
luton was incorporated in the platform rec
ommending the bringing of these Indians
into full citizenship and extending to them
the full protection of American laws.

A Theosophist Expelled.

CHICAGO, Oct. 4-Dr. Elliott Coues, OF
Washington, IN an interview to-day said that
at the convention Of Thcosopnists with whom
he is associated held IN this city Tuesday,
resolutions were adopted expelhng the noted
high prcstcSs Of Theosophy, Nine. Blavatsky,
and her New York representative. William

Coues said, because the madame and
MIR Judge are inspiring attacks
upon Dr. Cones in the press. 10 seems that
although an avowed Theosophist DR. Cones
some time publicly denounced Nine. Bla-
vatsky as n fakr. At the convention OF her

declared expelled. The doctor is n professor

The BASE BALL SITUATION,
One of the Most Exciting Races In
the Games History.
1T WILL BE DECIDED TO-DAY.
The Great Struggle Between New
York aud Boston For the
Championship of tho
National League.

Again both New York and Boston won
yesterday, and still the New Yorks lead by
the slender margin of two points It Is the
greatest raco in the history of base ball, and
intense interest is felt in the final outcome
this afternoon, when the last games for 1889
will be played. II both teams win again
to-day, New York wins the championship,
but IL New York loses and Boston wins,
then the Bean Eaters will carry off the flag.
The chances are about even, and IL may be
safely said that the games at Cleveland and
Pittsburg this afternoon, where the two
leaders play, will be the most thrilling con-
tests ever seen upon ball field. 1t is esti-
mated that the fullest capacity of the grounds
In both cities will he tested, and seats will
be sold at q premium. If both New York
and Boston win this afternoon, 1t Is feared
by many that the championship will not yet
be settled, as there is some doubt about one
game New York won from Philadelphia, a
game arbitrarily transferred from New
York to the Philadelphia grounds. This can
only be done by the consent OF all the clubs
in the league and in this case neither New
York nor Philadelphia asked such privilege.
President Spalding yesterday received a
telegram from Treasurer Howe of the Cleve-
land club, asking his (Mr. Spalding's) opin-
ion rs to the legality of the Cleveland and
New York teams playing double games.
President Spalding, after thinking the
matter over, sent the following telegram:
"Under section 80 there seem 10 be ques-
ton as to the legality OF all double games.
To prevent complications hope New York
and Boston will agree not TO play any more
double games this season."
Section SO of the league constitution read s
as follows:
''Each club shall play twenty champion
ship games. ana no more, with every other
club, but tie or drawn game or games pre-
vented by rain snail be played off
on the same grounds the first sue
ceeding day mot counting Sundays or days
when rain renders playing impossible, within
the dates of the same schedule series be-
tween such clubs if any remain open; and
il not such game may be played off on any
open date on either ground"
The truth of the matter is that under the
wording of this rule all 'double'i games thus
far played off this season are illegal and
should not count in determining clubs po-
sition in the race. According to this section
postponed games must be played on 'open
dates,n and postponed games that have been
begun at 2 O'CLOCK in the afternoon, preced-
ing the regular schedule game, have not,
therefore, been played on ''open dates"
This fact may lead to complications after the
close Of the season.
BY beating Philadelphia yesterday Chicago
is safely anchored in third place, and the
teams will end the race just as they appear
IN the following table.

TWO VAGABONDS.
A Drunken Bcg2ar and His Faithf Il
Dog IN Court.

A Drunken Bcg@ar and His Faithf u
Dog in Court.
Jacob Goehring, tall, lank individ-
ual of fifty-six, with grizzled hair and
beard, has been for a long time a famil-
lar figure on the Bowery in two distinct
roles. saws the New York Sun. One
day he shambles around with an i'm
mense placard bearing the legend, II
am blind,' on his breast. The next
day finds him with wide open eyes,
drawing plaintive notes from IL battered
flute almost as old as himself, while
pretty little spitz dog delights the
crowds that always surround them as
he dances IN time to the music. Prince
and his master think the world of each
other, for the old man has no relative,
and the dog Is his only companion.
On Saturday night the old beggar
started out .ln his role Of flute player.
He drifted up the Bowery, and anchored
at the corner of Delancey street. When
it came time for Prince to dance he
would not do it, for his master had been
drinking and the dog was grieved. The
old man coaXed while the crowd waited.
The dog looked up at HIM, but would
not move. Finally, in n rage, Goehring
struck out at the dog with his foot. The
spitz lodged the kick, and Goehring
came down with crash on the stones,
and lay there groaning and muttering
| curses on the dog, who lowered about
wagging his stump OF tail sympa-
thetically.
Policeman Bernard Meehan took
Goehring to the Eldridge street station,
with Prince tagging on behind, and en-
| tered charge of drunkenness against
him. His right forearm was found to
be broken, Meehan says by the fall, and
| an ambulance was summoned from Gov
eneur hospital. Prince, now Thoroughly
repeptant, jumped into the ambulance,
| too, but his old friend would have none
| of him, Two or three times he tried to
| throw the dog out, who each time re-
turned. The two made things so noisy
| at the hospital that they were sent back
| to the station to be quieted down ,and the
| dog and master were locked in cell
| together.
Over Glght they patched up n peace.
and when morning came were the same
| good friends who had late and drank
| and starved together" Both we're ar-
| raigned before Justice Power in the
| morning. Goehring was charged with
| intoxication. The old mendicant bugged
| the dog to his heart and kissed him
afrectionately a dozen times. Justice
| Power watched the two while he list
| ened to the policeman g story. Goehring
didn't have anything to say for himself,
and he was sentenced to two months on
| the island. Prince trotted close to his
masters heels as the latter was led into
the Jail. Both went up together,
| Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
| Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi.
