FRICTION WITHIN THE RANKS
Republicans Howl over a Presi-
Dental Appointment.

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, Oct. 16.-There prom
ises to be considerable friction within
the ranks of the Republican party of
this city over the appointment of Lyme
S. Metcalfe to be appraiser of the port,
which was made yesterday by the presi-
dent. Nathan Frank, member of con-
greSs from the Ninth Missouri district,
was joined by his colleagues in recon-
mending for that place Louis Witten-
berg, young Republican of the Ninth
district Mr.. Frank claims that the APP
pointment of Metcalfe takes him by sur
prise, and has forwarded letter to
President Harrison. in which he says:
IN our last conversation at Washington,
about July %. you stated to me that l should
give myself no uneasiness respecting the ap-
pointment of Mr. Louis Wittenberg as ap
praiser; that you did not desire to make that
appointment until about this time You then
and there promised me to appoint Mr.. Wit
tenberg, and that, if you did not or could not
do so, you would inform me before you took
any action against my Recommendation.
MIR. Frank goes on to say in his letter
that he called OH Secretary Window the
next day, who told him that the preSi-
dent had repeated the conversation
spoken of above to him Secretary Win
DOM, and that he would confirm the
promise. Mr.. Frank then shows that
the two congressman from st. Louis
have been recognized in the appoint
ment Of Collector Of the Revenue
Charles F. Wenneker and United States
Attorney George ID. Reynolds, but he
has failed to recognize the third candi-
date of the three st. Louis congress
men. Mr.. Frank closes his letter as
follows:
If you have made the appointment referred
out representation III the local appoint
ments.
Mr.. Frank claims the appointment of
Metcalfe for appraiser, instead of his
candidate, Wittenburg, is an act of bad
policy OH the part of the president or
Secretary Window.

When we opened our Carpet, Wall

1889, we resolved to sell only for cash
and do no business whatever on the
..installment plan," and for this reason
have refused hundreds of orders from
those wishing to purchase con time"
We have recently decided to give all
a chance to partly furnish their houses
with our goods. not at ''installment" or
"inflated" prices, but at our regular
price on monthly payments, charging
only small percentage of interest on
the time allowed on these goods.
Our goods are of the highest order,
both foreign and domestic.
We have done and are doing some of
the finest work ever seen in st. Paul
and other cities of the state, especially
in interior decoration, and can refer
with pleasure to the best houses and
largest institutions. Owing to our i'm
mense trade during the spring, we can
truly say again this fall:
We are the only house in the North

MILWAUKEE, Oct. 16.-PreSident
Roswell Miller, of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee g. st. Paul, pronounceS the story
of the big railway combine, pure windy
humbug, and attributes its origin to
the fact that J. c. Stubs, the second
vice president of the st. Paul. was one
of Coils p. HuntingtOn'S subOrdinates
on the Southern Pacific. Mr.. Hunting
ton is i'm Europe he says, and if he
knows anything about Mr.. Stubs in
tended change he has learned it since
the arrangement with the st. Paul COM
pany was made. President Miller makes
the following statement regarding the
matter:
Mr.. Stubs comes with the st. Paul COM
pany as second vice president, and will have
especial charge of the traffic affairs Of the
company. This is in pursuance 70 the wish
of the president to be relieved of part of his
burdens. The arrangement was made by
him and has been approved by the executive
committee. 1t will come before the board
for formal action at the regular meeting OF
this month. The only considerations that
have led to the selection of Mr.. Stubs were
his ability ana fitness for the position. The
statements in the papers that it is part OF
scheme for a railway combination in any
shape or form are pure romance.
THINK IT IS TRUE.
NEW YORK. Oct. 16.-The dispatches
reporting the consolidation of the Gould
& Huntington roads in the West and
Southwest have created a great deal Of
comment, and although confirmation of
any deal cannot yet be obtained, it is
generally thought that some such
scheme is on foot. At the Southern Pa
eific office the officials stated that they
knew nothing of the matter.

PRAYER BOOK REVISION.
The EpiScOpalian Convention
Makes Several Changes.


New YORK, Oct. 16.-The house of
deputies of the general Episcopal con-
,vention convened this morning at st.
Georges church. with a large attend
ance. The chief business of the day
was consideration of the prayer book,
after the victory won by the revisery
party yesterday. Immediately after the
reading of the minutes, the committee
to whom was referred the memorial on
aged and disabled clergymen reported.
The committee decided that the fund
for the relief of widows and Or
phans of deceased clergy and aged
and infirm should be commended
to the attention of the church,
but hoped that the aged clergy
would be aided apart, and that the
original fund might be confined to
widows and orphans and infirm clergy.
The committee on the prayer book then
crushed 5. Corning Judd's pet resolu-
ton touching the change in the name
of the church. They decided that it
was not desirable that the words prot
estant Episcopal" should be omitted, or
that the convention should take the
matter into consideration. The COM
mittee on Christian unity reported
lofOluUIy. lHC JOlub COlilHlIOtOO W
whom was referred the relation Of the
colOred race to the church came to the
conclusion that there was no distinction
of color recognized in the
church. The committee on the con-
stitution made report concerning
the cesSion of territory by ali individual
diocese to the general convention which
was placed on the calendar. The house
then went into committee of the whole
and considered and adopted several pro-
posed changes in the prayer book, and
at 5 p. m. the delegates adjourned until
II a. m. tomorrow. The house of
bishops this afternoon made the report
of the committee on canOnS the order
for tomorrow. The tentative use of the
hymnal for the ensuing three years was
nOn-cOncurred in. Adjourned. The
conservation of Bishop Davies for the
diocese of Michigan will occur next
