NEW YORK, May 24.-Rev. DIR. Heber
Newton, of All Saints Church, preached
a sermon this morning which is calcu-
lated to evoke much discussion in relgi-
ious circles. He made succinct state
ments of his much-mooted views. His
text was, Hold fast to the form of sacred
words"
The reverend gentleman said in sub
stance: 'It has been said of the Nicene
creed that it was fit only to be sung. On
the other hand, it would be hard to set
the Westminster faith to music The
Nlcene creed is the amplification of the
apostles creed. Scarcely a doctrine
which is in dispute in the circles round
about us furnish a proper ground for dis
pute IN our roomy church. The only
affirmation in the Nicene creed is the
large elastic declaration. l believe in one
Catholic and Apostolic church. We can
mus judge of the Catholicism which
would rule out the foremost man in the
church Tor the Bishopric, because of his
OPINION concerning the episcopate.

Supposed Murderers Arrested.

PORTLAND, May 24.-The police still
maintain Teticence regarding the arrest at
Butte, Mont, of two men suspected of
the murder of William Barbour, Lee
banon merchant. whose body was found
in the Willamette River, in this city,
May Sd. They will not give the names of
the men arrested for fear that a third &c
complice, not yet arrested, will escape.
Two men have been under arrest at Butte
for one week, and were arrested for
vagrancy. An officer arrived there yes
terday with requisition papers. The po-
lice claim to have completed chain of
evidence against them. 1t is also thought
that the parties arrested are the murderers

NEW YORK, May A.-Smalley. in his
letter to tho Tribune, says: European
diplomatists have watched with interest
the pursuit of the Itata by the Charles

VOWED in the American action Of no
little lntricacy. They hold that the neu-
trality laws have been openly violated by
the Chilean insurgents with the active
help of certain American citizens and
hrms, and that the American Govern
ment has done something to prevent this
traffic, but whether it has done all it
could, or has used due diligence in pre-
venting violation of its own laws and
the public law is thought doubtful.
America is reminded that she set up &
high standard in the Alabama case. As
one writer says: 1.-THE United States has
contracted distinct and peculiar obliga-
tons in regard to neutrality" Chile
may, according to one view, call on the
United States to accept the obligations
which she compelled England to
acknowledge in the treaty of Washing
ton.
IF we were lax in enforcing on land

neVe us from the liability" saws the
same critic. But it is admitted on all
hands that the questions at issue are too
difficult to allow of dogmatizing.

south OF France proves not less success

respect less significant. Once more the

point of view, more striking than Tou-
louise. This city of enamels was at one
moment Boulangist, but received with
enthusiasm the President who trampied
Boulangism into the dust. and cheered
him when he denounced it as a system of
selfish violence. Limoges is Carnot's

The Government Claiming Continued
Successes on Land and Sea.
PARIS, May M.--The Chilean Legation
has Santiago advioos claiming continued
successes for the Government party on
land and sea. According to these dis
patches the wal~hip Almirante Condell
on the 18th attacked Iquique and dis
charged torpedo against the insurgent
transports. The crew of the insurgent
vessels mutinied after sustaining a heavy
loss in killed and wounded. The disaf-
fected insurgents at Tacna also mutinied
and were disarmed.
On the night of the 9th the armed trans
port Imperial bombarded the Iquique,
while the Almirante Condell waited for
the insurgent vessels to leave the bay in
order to attack them, but subsequently
found they had escaped. The Almirante
Condell afterwards captured Taltal, rout-
ing the garrison and taking many pris-
onerS.
The position of the insurgents, accord
ing to the same authority, is everywhere
critical, while the army of the Govern
ment is loyal and web disciplined.

SERIOUS CUTTING ARRAY.
A Convict Stabbed by Fellow-Pris-
oner at San Quentin.

SAN RAFAEL, May 24.-In a quarrel at
San Quentin prison yesterday, one
Vernon, negro convict, was seriously
stabbed by white prisoner named Ed.
Williams. AT the time of the ARRAY the
two men were in the yard before going
in the jute mill to work on the night
shift. They were disputing as to the diff
ferent merits of the pugilists, Corbett and
Jackson, when, as the words waxed hot,
Williams drew a caSe-knife which he had
obtained from the dining-room, having
previously sharpened it. and plunged the
blade in the left side of the negro, pierre
ing his body just below the ribs. The
combatents were then separated, and the
wounded man conveyed to the prison
hospital, where he is resting quietly at
present.
The attending physician cannot say
anything definitely as to the result of the
wound, but considers it dangerous and
the mans recovery doubtful. The prison
officials were very reticent concerning
the affray and rather reluctant in giving
information.
Williams is said to have been before
this very quiet person, and his action
has occasioned considerable surprise, he
having only eleven days more to serve.
He was convicted of burglary in the sec
ond degree at San Francisco and SEN
fenced to three years Imprisonment.

SAN FRANCISCO, May "a. = w. w.
Whaley, one of the owners of the famous

off the coast of British Columbia, arrived
in this city week ago. Whaley was
with the Halcyon on its trip to China and

recently, and came here on the Australia.
He was seen by a reporter, but positively
refused to answer any questions as to the
movements of the Haleyon or to the dis
position made of the opium which it has
been reported that she was carrying.
a dispatch recently received from Port
Townsend stated that the Haleyon had
landed the opium which she brought from
Hongkong at Honolulu, but from the
fact that she is known to be lowering on
the coast of British Columbia, it is sur
missed that she discharged portion of
the opium only at the islands, and is
waiting favorable opportunity to SNUG

BALTIMORE. May M.-The unwilling of
the monument erected on the site
of the mulberry tree beneath which
Calvert and the first colonists of
Maryland assembled after their landing
in st. Marys County will take place on
June Sd.
On little knoll at st. Marys City,
overlooking the broad Chesapeake Bay,
there stood until few years ago the tree
under which, March u, 1884, the pilgrims
made compact to found government,
with civil and religious liberty as its
basis. A party of relic-hunters undertook
to chop it down, but they were discovered
and driven from the county.
The people of st. Marys County then
made preparations to protect the old tree,
and after cutting it down placed it as
pillar in pretty little church that is now
one of the principal buildings in the
place.
The monument is plain shaft, twenty
seven feet high, of the best American
granite.

and Adjourns.
DENVER, May 24.-The Trans-Missis-
sippi Congress voted for the coinage of
American silver and then adjourned, to
meet in Omaha next October. The ex-
IRENE Western delegates carried the con-
vention by storm, and the agricultural
States had only feeble hearing, hence
the result of the Omaha meeting remains
predetermined. The resolutions are to be
submitted to the National Congress, and
with the possibility of more complete
representation from the delegation who
were this.,week in Cincinnati. The silver
resolutions may be amended to provide
for the coinage of American silver only.
The closeness of the vote before adjourn
ment demonstrates that the silver men
estimated their strength, although
Iowa, louisiana, Kansas, Nebraska and
Arkansas were not in the convention.
The vote was 55 TO IS in favor of unlimited
free coinage.
