THE EVENING SESSION.
What Was Done by the Baptist Dele
gates Last Night
Colorado to TeIas-The Report on Foreign MIS-
sions Discussed and Adopted-A Biography
Of DR.. Broadus-A Few Notes.

The convention seemed wearied with
lit arduous work and the members were
slow to assemble last evening, but there
was full house when the gavel Of the
president raped 10 order.
After q song service telegram was
read as follows:
"ST. Lotus, Mo, May II, $780,
The Methodist General conference sends
Christian salutation. See 1. John ,iv. IL I.
Brethren If God 30 loves us we should
love one another. -
On motion of Rev. J. L. Carroll of
North Carolina, the secretary was di-
rected to send a suitable response.
Rev. Henry Cramer of Colorado was
introduced to express frsternal greeting
from Colorado Baptists, which he did
with great warmth. He gave a good ac-
count of the Baptist growth In Denver,
saying the two Baptist churches of Dem
yer have grown to ten, and we are now
arranging TO endow q Baptist female
college.
President HARRISON grasped his hand
and heartily reoiprocated the greeting.
Rev. j. W. Bozman led in prayer.
Rev. J. B. Vandeventer reported on
foreign missions. The report stated that
the increase of contributions was very
gratifying, but the interest account was
growing lamentably large, SIG 900 hav-
ing been borrowed, as against $40 900
last year. The cost OF state agencies is
increasing.
Professor Harris of Virginia said:
"The foreign board are rather proud of
their financial system. A mistake can
hardly occur and cannot escape detection.
There was not SIG 900 borrowed at one
time; 1t is simply the sum of several re-
newals. We have to borrow because
brethren delay in RENTING. There
are two notable exceptions: the
women's missionary societies and the no.
BILE state of South Carolina. These send
| money every week in the year. Don't
withhold your money, my brethren. l
know one treasurer of district associa-
ton who received money in the summer
and held it till the following spring!
Have you any such treasurers? Send
your money and with your prayers-your
money without your prayers Is dross;
your money without your prayers is
nypocricy."
DR.. ]. w. Warder of Kentucky ex-
planned his plan of systematic benevo-
lence.
Rev. Z. R. Carswell of Georgia spoke
emphasizing the point that the mission
conscience needs to be deepened in
Christian hearts. Missions, - said he,
care not an appendage to the Gospel,
but the Gospel itself. Study the ratio
of your responsibility
The report was adopted.
Rev. Carter Helm Jones, of Tennessee,
reported on papal fields, and stated there
was solid Advancement. In Mexico the
wonderful success of last year continues.
Brazil mourns for four of our most
valued men called home on account of
sickness.
Professor Harris read postal from W.
D. Powell at Sonora, Mex. where ne had
just organized church-a self-sustain-
ing church.
On motion of DR.. Burrows, this sub
iect was made special order for 10 q. II &.
Tuesday.
Adjourned with benediction by Rev.

One of the most pleasant occasions OF
the Baptist convention was that at the
opera house on Sunday night. DR.. John
/. johnson, now president of Mary
Sharp college, Tennessee, preached
magnificent sermon. DR.. Johnson was
for many years professor of English at
the University of Mississippi and several
OF the graduates of that insti-
tuition and his former pupils
were present. Among the number
may be mentioned the Professors VIII
liams OF the city schools, and Mr.. r.
P. Willing OF Mississippi, now visiting in
this city. DR.. johnson enjoys the rep

Fort worths,s WAY,

The committee on hospitality, who
have had in charge the reception and en-
tertainment of the delegates to the Bap-
fist convention desire to thank the peo-
pie of the city for coming so promptly to
their rescue. The committee have had
to work steadily and hard, but
the citizens have backed them up
nobly and it is only their due that ii
should be noticed. This applies to all
who have had a share in entertaining the
visitors, who have come in thousands +,
and vino express themselves as thor
oughly satisfied with the reception that
has been rendered them. Both clergy
men and citizens came SO generously to
the front that what threatened at first to
be Waterloo to Fort Worth hospitality
was turned into an easy victory. The
committee had about seventy-five more
homes offered than they had appllca-
tons.

Condition of the Trinity Bridge.

The Main street bridge over the
Trinity, which was Saturday formally
condemned and all travel across it cut
off, yet remains in the same condition.
No teams have crossed the bridge since
Saturday night, but people still walk
over to take the electric car at the north
ern approach. 1t still vibrates under
their tread, but is no worse than when
discovered. The big cracks In the sur
face of the abutment and in the face of
the masonry have not sppreciably
widened. However, the danger
still continues, and anyone cross
ing the bridge does it at
his own peril as the sign of danger indi-
Gates. Active measures will be taken by
the city authorities to-day to have the
necessary repairs under way as soon as
possible, in order that travel may not be
blocked longer than can be avoided. The
southern abutment will require strength
enfnR in some way, but how has not yet
been determined. That is the problem
on Whiehthe city engineer is aprking.

had made every arrangement to attend
this one, even to packing my trunk and
engaging the omnibus man, but sudden
and serious indisposition has prevented

God as once we did, we are

Speculative building is becoming quite
a regular profession in many parts of the
country. It is often undertaken by a
man of means who has q tract of land
to improve, and he secures his greater
profits, usually, from the increased
value of the land. No special knowl-
edge of architecture is needed, but the
successful operator must have good
Judgment as TO the class Of buildings
that are in demand, and he must be
pretty shrewd to get good work and full

Stanley Lionizsd.
Special to the Gazette.
LONDON, May lS.-The reception given
to Henry NJ, Stanley by the corporation
of the city OF London in Guild hall to-
day was the grandest of all demonstra-
tions that been made in honor of the
great explorer since his arrival
here. Long before the time
appointed for the reception
the streets in the vicinity of the Guild
hail were SO crowded with people that
traffic was entirely suspended, state Of
affairs that existed for several hours.
Speeches, which were delivered by sew
eral members of the municipal govern
ment on the coming OF Stanley to Lon
don and comforting upon him the free
dom of the city, were of the most eulo-
CYSTIC character. A large number of
ladies were in attendance, and paid espe-
cial attention to the guest of the occasion.
The freedom OF the city was presented
in the usual diminutlve casket
and the explorer was also the recipient
of a number of pictures and maps of
Africa and London, together with the
coat of arms of Great Britain and the
United States.
COTTON SPINNING MILLS EMBARRASSED.
The announcement is made that the
firm of Robert Shaw s. Sons of Bradfort,
owners of one of the largest cotton spin
ming mills in England, have become so
greatly embarrassed as to necessitate their
assignment for the benefit of their cred
itors. Liabilities of the firm are placed
at $500 900.
AGITAToR BURNS wEAKENs.
The great debate on The eight hour
question between Mr.. Bradlaugh and
Mr.. John Burns, labor agitator, which
was announced to take place as soon as
suitable hall could be secured, has been
indefinitely postponed, owing to the
withdrawal of Mr.. Burns. Iuasmuoh as
Burns was the challenging party much
surprise has been caused by his action,
for which no adequate reasons are
given.

Chief Arthur's Address.

P1rTsBURG, Pa, October 1S.-Chief Arthur,
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
in addressing their delegate convention, said:
s'We come from every quarter OF the
United States, Canada and Old Mexico, 40
men, representing AS subdivisions, CON-
prising a membership of 1900. There is
oneness of purpose, but there is diversity
of opinion. and We hope during the course OF
our debates to find an equation by which the
problem of our difficulties and differences
may be solved; to strike q balance between
capital and labor, as far as we are concerned.
between the most radical and conservative,
that right may be obtained and justice be
DONE It is by honorable action that we have
achieved success as labor organization, not
by might, nor by loud and boastf4l asser-
tions of what, owing to our numbers, we
might compel corporations to do. Not that
that has ever been our poilcy. We ask but
fair, just dues, nothing more. The laborer
is worthy of his hire; is entitled to hours OF
reflection, deserving of consideration, has
the same needs, the same lOnglngs and de-
sires, is altogether human. and as much
man as he who sits in his Office and directs
the work of others. If there be those who
would array labor against capital, am not
one of them or with them. If there be those
who regard the interests of labor and capital
as naturally or properly antagonistic, l do
not agree with them. The interests OF labor
and capital are identical, or to be more accu-
rate, reciprocal. Any argument respecting
labor topics which does not distinctly recog-
nize and concede the truth of this PROPOSE
ton must needs be fallacious. and, as mat
ter of fact, it is recognized and conceded by
all the eminent authorities on the subject
under discussion from Adam Smith down. "

WHOLESALE CREMATION.
The Leland Hotel at Syracuse, NJ.
y. Burned and Twenty-Five Lives
Reported Lost.

The Leland Hotel at Syracuse, NJ.
". Burned and Twenty-Five Lives
Reported Lost.
SYRACUSE, N. T., October 17.-What proved
to be the most disastrous fire that has visited
Syracuse for many years was discovered in
the Leland hotel at 1880 O'Clock in the morn
tive that at least twenty five persons have
lost their lives, and many more have been
more or less injured.
One woman was being lowered from q
window by a rope. She had reached point
opposite the third story when the rope be-
came ignited from a burning sill, the rope
parted and the woman fell to the pavement,
her brains being dashed out and her body
hattened into shapeless mass. So great
was the confusion and excitement that the
identity of those killed and injured is
wholly unknown. Undertakes ambulances
and other vehicles are flying in all directions,
ard the streets in the neishborhood of the
ill-fated hotel are thronged with excited
crowds of people.
Burnett Forbes, stock broker of this city,
escaped in the street almost naked. He was
slightly injured about the hands. One woman
was found with nursing babe in her arms,
crOuched in stairway, where she had been
overcome by smoke. She was removed by
the firemen, but has not yet regained con-
sciousness, and it is impossible to say what
her name or experience was. The fire is
said to have started in the kitchen. The
building will be a total loss. 1t was buik
two years ago at cost of $4,000. 1t is SIX
stories high and contained over 400 rooms.
1t is impossible to learn how many guests
we're in the hotel at the time the fire broke
out. The total loss will not fall short of halt
a million dollars, and is partially covered by
insurance, but it is impossible to learn how
much insurance was carried on the hotel
furniture or what Individual losses will be.
