ST. JOHNS, N. F., Nov. 5.-Particulars
have Just been received hero of the loss of
the schooner Parsee with all on board.
The vessel was coming from Funck's when
she was caught in a storm. On the follow
ing day she was discovered swinging off
the reef in partly submerged condition
and lying on her side. There was not
single soul on board, all having persisted.
1t is supposed the breakers from the north
ern Bell rock broke over the schooner and
caused the disaster.
The crew consisted of John G. Kean,
master, and his four sons, James Sturges,
who leaves widow and five children, and
Samuel Jean, unmarried ,twenty-fo years
old.
The schooner Lois Jane of Harbor Grace
has been given up as lost, with all hands
She was engaged in the Labrador fishery,
and is supposed to have gone down near
Cape Harrison in a heavy gale. -Four

of the crew.

Convention OF the International
Association at Neutrality-suspicious.
of Secretary Collins-Good Work
Done at Hartford.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-The sixth an
nual assembly of the International Chris
tian Workers association, composed
chiefly of delegates from tina United States
and Canada, began its sessions here to-
day. The delegates represent every kind
and degree of active Christian work, and
the convention is union of all Protestant
churches. The chairman of the executive
committee is Rev. P. A. Torrey of Chica-
go, who is associated with Evangelist
Moody. The secretary of the association
is Rev. John s. Collins of New Haven,
Conn. Women are prominent as dele
gates to the convention.
The convention was opened with prayer
service. Several addresses of welcome
were made. among them one by Postmas-
ter General Wanamaker. He said that
whstever was the word best expressing
love and welcome that was the word he
wished to be understood as saying to
them. Their presence here would confer
eA wen SAoNsSSA DAcooiAS upOu lut CITY IuhE
it would upon themselves, and its effect
would be reflected upon the whole coun-
try. He prayed that his hearers as cap
tains of the host, might find the kindly
light to lead them on, and expressed the
hope that the dark roads of unfruitful
service might be left far behind, and that
they might have to themselves cities and
nations saved to Christ through ia love
and mercy.
Rev. John G. Collins, the secretary, read
the report of what has been done by the
Christians at work as an organization. His
report touched Interestingly upon the pro-
gress of the movement. There has been
an increase in the membership since the
last convention at Hartford, Conn, from
52S to 800. The secretary said the mem
beers of the convention had accomplished
great 6eal toward the solution of the diff
cult problem of how to reach the masses.
The headquarters of the association are
now located at New Haven, Conn. and Mr..
Collins announced that the people of that
city had already subscribed SIT 900 toward
the erection of $50, 900 building for the
use of the association. The meetings of
the association, he thought, did not result
80 much in temporary enthusiasm as in
apermanent inspiration to the workers,
arising from personal contact with others
who are engaged in the work.
Mr.. Gillette, a city evangelist from Hart
ford, Conn.,, was asked to tell something
of what the convention did for his city
last year. He said he was glad to be in
the city where the go-pel wagon had been
first brought forth. The work of the Cos
pei wagon in the streets was seen at Hart
ford during the convention last year. 1t
will take eternity to show it. Ali through
the outlying districts around Hartford the
touch of personal Christian work is felt
through the influence of the convention.
At the afternoon and evening sessions
brief addresses were delivered and reports
of progress made in the work throughout
the country

A Ship Abandoned I'm the Frozen
NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Nov. 5.-Advices
from San Francisco received here tonight
report the total loss of the New Bedford
steam whaler William Lewis, on Point
Barrow, Arctic ocean, October 6. The
Lewis was abandoned by the crew, who
were taken on board the steamer Belvidere,
which also saved the whalebone from the
wrecked steamer, valued at $40, 900. The
steamer was valued at 100000, and this
was her second season. She was largely
owned here the first of the season, but the
controlling interest had been purchased by
San Francisco whaling merchants, and
next year she was to have hailed from San
Francisco. The vessel was partially in
sured. The steamer was built in Bath by
Kelley & Speare, and was acknowledged to
be the model whaler of the fleet.
Accompanying the news Of the loss of
the steamer was the report that the sailing
ship Northern Light had arrived from the
Arctic with eleven whales. She brings

A Driveway on West Rock Park
Planting Trees on other Parks.
The quarry owners on West Rock are
engaged in constructing road leading to
the quarries on the step side of the rock.
From this drive beautiful view of the
village of Westville can be seen and also a
portion of New Haven. The road, which
is to be a permanent drive, is on the pub
lie park property and will be a valuable
acquisition to the park. The park COM
missioners are watching the progress of
the construction of the road which is to
serve as a double purpose of use, for the
quarrymen and use for a pleasure ride in
the future. From the old road at the foot
of the mountain beautifully picturesque
view can be seen. This view is very in
teresting to any who admire mountain
scenery. and from the elevated road near
by contrasting view is to be seen.

MCKINLEY ON THE RESULT.
The Major Perfectly Satisfied-Free
Traders Answered.

CINCINNATI, O., Nov. 5.-A special to
the Times-Star from Canton says: Major
Mckinley said to day, speaking of the Ohio
elections: 1 am convinced that the judg-
ment of our citizens does not approve the
constant agitation of the tariff issue in
the face of the fact that it can accomplish
nothing. 1t must surely be apparent to
all alike that the conditions without which
effect legislation is impossible do not exist.
Republi can senate and republican presi-
dent are bulwarks against which free trade
forces dash powerless and with no lmme-
date prospect of change in these condi-
tions the only result of continued agita-
ton is to disturb business and retard en-
terprises,+ which the new law designs to en-
courage In spite of all the bill is work
ing its way and from being on the defen-
sive as a year ago we are now on the ag-
gressive. When business is already good,
our people will not long tolerate move
ments that disturb it in the face of the
conditions have named and you will find
that the republicans and democrats alike
will call halt on the men whose stock in
trade is not fair, square argument, but
| juggling Misrepresentation of the same.
Ohio has gone republican and accept the
result as Indicating that this state stands
| by the republican party with full faith in
| its protective principles as embodied II
the tariff law, and more than this, Ohie
1 stands as she always has, in favor OF full
| dollar and q sound currency.
