YANKEE RUNNING.

THE first stop in the remarkable run
from New York TO Buffalo was at the end
of the l43d mile to change engines, the
time then being 40 minutes Then there
was another run of i43 miles in LAG min
utes. 1t is to DO hoped that the success
of the venture will not drive the world to
risky experiments in the way of rapid To-
comotion. The whole thing suggests
creepy reflections of what might happen
If something occurred to check
an express moving at the rate of
mile a minute. OF course, with the
line in good order and the wheels and
axles all right, and the signalling and
points above suspicion, the possibilities of
q catastrophe are very remote. People
have SO much to do nowadays that fast
travelling is an enormous convenience. and
when consistent with safety it is to DO
heartily encouraged. We see what the de-
yelopment Of speed in the ocean steamers
has done TO increase the traffic between
this country and America. II now seems
that rapid railway travelling is to play Its
part IN the same direction"

1t might be supposed that letters from a

amid the scenes of war, would contain
some private information which could

and is now at this late day for the first

forehand, for his rule of absolute secrecy
in war extended even to his wife; and,
what is still more remarkable, he told her
very little after. for he could fight battles
better than he could describe them, and
ke did not like to talk OF himself. Her
knowledge of the war, therefore, is de-
rived chiefly from others, and almost
solely from southern authorities; We do
not remember that she quotes single
northern writer. IL never enters her
dear woman's heart that there can be an

simply gives the generally known events
of Stonewall Jackson's life as the chain to
connect her personal "reminiscences, to
which are added, what only she could
supply, the letters written to her during
the war. But since these contain but little
about the war, or little that Is new, what
do they contain that makes them worthy
OF preservation? We answer. they fur

AQuESrioa OF CREED.
Newcastle congregationaiists Ex-
press Their Views In Re esoIutI ons.

NEWCASTLE, November 4.-The Congre-
gational church at Newcastle has for several
weeks had under consideration, the subject
of requiring candidates to give public assent
to the church creed, as has always been their
custom. A committee, which included the
four deacons, was appointed to consider the
revision of the church manual, and this COM
mittee unanimously recommended that the
creed now in use, should be publicly as
sented to by the pastor, deacons and Sunday
school superintendent, but that candidates
for church membership, who gave evidence
of regeneration, should be received and
welcomed on publicly asserting to the cove
nant The matter has been freely discussed
and at the last regular church meeting, the
following resolutions were adopted by a
vote of thirty to five:
Whereas, A very few in our church are earnest
v onposed to the adoption OF the rule that ''ths
Church receives and welcomes to its membership
ali persons who give evidence OF regeneration
and who publicly assent to its covenant" and
whereas The few who are opposed to this rule
declared that they cannot worship and work with
| us If this rule Is adopted therefore,
Resolved, That while we are heartily in favor
of the adoption of such rule in Difference to the
wishes of the few, and in the interests of peace,
| all action be, for the present, postponed Mean
While we shall hope and pray that the time may
| soon come when all shall see the Christian wis.
| dom and propriety of receiving into Christ's
church all who are truly His.

MORE WORK FOR THE TARs.
Yankee war Ships May Be Needed
In Brazilian Waters.

WASHINGTON, November 4.-The report
ed revolutionary movement in Brazil, accom-
panied by declaration OF martial law and
the establishment of dictatorship, is likely
to cause another demand upon the already
strained resources Of the navy. 1t is re-
garded as necessary for the protection Of
American interests that an United States
naval force be at hand therei In case of for
midable outbreak. The only vessels regular
ly attached to the South Atlantic station,
now in the vicinity of Rio de Janerio. are
the Essex and Tallapoosa. The first is an
old wooden cruiser, and the second one,
worn out and unserviceable, has been offered
for sale. The Boston is somewhere off the
Brazilian coast en- route to the Pacific, but it
is not probable that she will be detained.
The Yorktown was at Bahia, Brazil, Satur-
day and will probably be ordered by cable
to remain there or return to Santos, not
withstanding the fact that she also was on
her way to the Pacific station. Meanwh lie
the work On the Newark at Boston is being
pressed in case of emergency, Admiral
Gherardi's flagship, the Philadelphia, now on
way to the West Indies from New York,
could be ordered by cable to proceed to Rio
de JaneirO.

FRENCH COULD NOT PROCURE BAIL
The Mon HE Offered as Securities
Were Not Acceptable.
SO this Maverick Director Is stIII un-
der Surveillance.
The Five Cent Savings Bank Invaded
By Its pepositors.

BOSTON, November 4.-Both the bonds
men offered this afternoon by Jonas Fl.
French, the Maverick bank director were re-
jected by Commissioner Hallett and up to a
late hour tonight, Mr.. French was unable to
obtain bonds. Heis stlll In the custody Of
United States deputy marshal
There was a slight run on the Five Cent
Savings Bank on School street this morning.
Same Of the depOsitOrs seem to have become
scared and doubted the soundness Of the In
stitution. As soon as the bank was opened
this morning about 200 Of them commenced
to present their books and draw out their
balances.
There were women there with babies in
their arms, young men and old men, young
ladies and old ladies In the line. All were
anxious to be the first to present their books.
Eacn one received the cash placed TO his or
her credit on the presentation Of their books.
AS usual thing this bank has had three
paying tellers, AM In order TO expedite pay
men. this force has been increased to FIVE.
There Is no danger OF this bank being un-
able to pay every demand that Is made upon
It, Notwithstanding that 1t has 125.O00 deDos-
itors. While In one sense this drawing out
OF the deposits can be called a run, In an
other 1t cannot. When the bank Is seen full
OF people 1t would look as though there was
some trouble. but when the number Of de-
positors Is compared with the number who
are drawing their money out. 1t Is found to
De small fraction OF one per cent Of the
whole number.
!, IL Is a physical lmpossibilty to pay all Of
them at once and necessarily the number
looks large. The bank has 81, 500, 600 sur
plus, and with the call loaus and ready cash
there Is enough money to pay any amount
that 1t may be called upon for without dis
turbing the securities.
This run is caused by the Evans suicide
and the failure Of the Maverick bank. While
this Is the direct cause, the president and
treasurer OF the bank stated that the bank
had no claim against the firm Of /. A. Evans
q Co. and no dealings with the Maverick
bank. The bank would continue to pay out
the money so long as It was called for.

Before tho Presbytery.

NEW YORK, November AT the recon-
vening of the Presbytery here today, DR..
Briggs of the Union Theological Seminary,
whose conduct is being investigated by the
General Assembly, waived the right to re-
reading Of the charges preferred against
him. The doctor read numerous objections
to the charges on various grounds, alleging
that they were not specific, and were too in-
definite and irrelevant DR.. Vandyke stated
bis objection to the committee on the prose
cution being an original party to the case.
The moderator decided that the committee
properly represented the Presbytery. In
this he was upheld BY vote Of 81 to 81.
Subsequently Dr.. Vandyke offered a resolu-
tion providing that in view Of the facts be-
fore the Presbytery and the authority con-
ferred upon 1t, the charges against DIR.
Briggs be dismissed. A discussion followed
and some amendments to the resolution
were accepted. The resolution was then
adopted, 81 to 80, in the following form:
Resolved, That the Presbytery of New York,
after having listened to the paper of the Rev. Dr.
Charles A. Briggs in the case Of the Pres oyteran

WASHINGTON. November 4.-Attorney
General Miller received despatch from the
United States attorney at Los Angeles, Cal,
today in regard to the Itata case saying !:
"The court. in an elaborately written opin-
ion, decided that the purchase and shipment
of arms on the Itata was legitimate COM
mercial transaction, the insurgents not be-
ing state. colony or district OF a people
within section 5283. The attorney general
said this was surprising in view of the fact
that Judge Brown, in the southern district
OF New YORK In the case OF Mary n. Hogan,
and Judge Hughes in the eastern district of
Virginia in the case of United States against
214 boxes of arms, recently decided actually
the reverse. An appeal has been ordered by
the attorney general.

FuNoY's TREAcnERoUs TIDE.
Furness Line Steamer Cast Away on
Seal Island.

HALIFAX. n S., November 4.-News was
received tonight of the total loss Of the Fur
ness line steamship Ottawa, which occurred
at Blond Rock, off Seal Island, N. s., near
the entrance to the Bay Of Funday, on Sat-
urday night. Captain Dixon and crew were
saved, and are now on Seal Island. She had
no passengers. The Ottawa was on her way
from this port to st. John, N. 3. 1t blew a
heavy gale on Saturday and Sunday, and she
was carried ashore by the wind and treach-
erOus currents. The place Is one of the
most dangerous on the coast. 1t is remarka-
BILE that four days should have elapsed be-
tween the disaster and the receipt of the
news, but the fearful tide and tempestuous
sea in the twelve miles between Seal Island
and the mainland prevented earlier commu-
nicatlon. The Ottawa was fine steel steam
er, owned by Christopher Furness of West
Hartlepool. England. and was of 1719 tons.
She was launched last February for the

DEs MONIES. Ia, November 4.-Thirty-
four counties complete give plurality over
Wheeler, Republican, of 36O6. lathe same
counties in 1889 gave Boies plurality of
1875. The remaining counties gave Boies a
plurality in 1889 of 524S, which would indi

committee that the state would give Boies q
plurality of 5000 to 10000 will be sus-
