CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-Al the leading
lines entering Chicago from the West
will be represented at the New York con-
ference next Thursday excepting the Chi
cago & Alton and the Chicago, St. Paul
& Kansas City. Even these roads can
be relied upon to subscribe to the agree
ment if it is constructed upon a basis that
will insure them a fair share of business.
This afternoon the presidents of other
lines continued the conference which has
been going on all the week regarding the
proposed agreement. 1t has developed
that the presidents are widely apart on
some of the questions involved. 1t seems
that the Atchison people lean too much
to the Gould idea of an ironclad combina-
ton 10 please the Rock Island and st.
Paul, aud that the presidents have failed
10 agree on a number of important points.
What effect the present difficulty between
the Union Pacific and Rock Island and
ST. Paul will have on the new agreement
continues to be a matter of conjecture,
and the officers of the Ia t named roads
will not say whether or not it is likely to
affect their actions.
All the Western roads have aiopted
the report of the committee of managers
concerning free transportation, and the
plan recommended is now in force. 1t
provides that annual or time passes shall
not be issued to the employees of foreign
roads in the train service station or traffic
department except upon the request of
the proper officials of such roads: that an
nual half are permits be GO I'd only in the
state in which the holder resides; that
annual. or single trip passes, shall not be
issued to worlds far commissioners, to
the representatives OF street car or cable
roads, agents Engaged in the sale Of com
modities to the roads. Grand Army peo-
pie or any United Stltes army officers,
except the commander OF the department
OF the Missouri or his immediate staff.

PARIS, Jan. 3-Cardinal Lavigerie's
declaration 10 favor of the French repub-
lie has received the support of the arch
bishops of Tours, Cambria and Rouen
and several bishops and other clerical
dignitaries. In a recent interview with
the pope Monsignor Fuzette, bishop of
Rouen, urged that IN the interests of the
church the French Catholic clergy ought
to sever all connection with the mon
archical party. The monarchists, he
held, were now powcrless to conserve or
found anything, while they were so far
forgetting the dictates OF conscience as to
resort to the weapons of corruption and
conspiracy. His holiness. remarked that
the republican clergy ought 10 be satisfied
with the sentiments of Cardinal LavIg-
cries toast. Fuzette replied that Car
dinal Ligigerie had struck a most for
tunate blow in behalf of the church,
which could mo- identity the cause OF re-
liRion with the opposition to the estab-
lished government FuZette's letter re-
porting this interview is countersigned by
many bishops. and is tantamount to a
definite submission of a large section OF
the clergy to the republican government.

Pastor and Congregation Fnm out.


MACON, Ga. Jan. 3.-Au architectural
question-whether there should be one
row of pillars in a church or two rows, APP.
parently a trivial matter-is at the bot
tom of a popular Savannah pastors
transfer to another field. The Houston
Street Methodist congregation has a
handsome new church in course Of cree
ton. Rev. David Rilev, the pastor this
year, raised several thousand dollars for
the fund and got the building started. He
lsbored earnestly and with great success,
and bis congregation appreciated his work.
The plans Tor the building provided for
one row of columns IN a certain part of
the church. Some ofthe members thought
there ought 10 be two rows, The pastor
considered one row sufficient. A division
arose over that question aud those who
favored having two rows got the opinions
of different builders who recommended
two rows. The division being close and
exciting much bitterness among the breth-
rem. Mr.. Riley remarked that rather
than see a breach in the congregation
grow out ~ ,uch a small thing he pre-
ferred to ~ ; nowhere else, and although
the congregation had asked the bishop to
send him back, he was, at the recent SEES
sion of the conference in Macon, trans
terred to a new charge.

Gle Of last Saturday says:
There are only now two combined

that these two combined effects-a
favorable August, and a late fall

To start with, the cotton crop is
nearly three weeks late, and this
must be. overcome by correspond
ing lateness OF the fall. From the
time the square forms TO the ap-
pearaneo Of lhe bloom, is twenty

OF the bloom, to the opening tf the

day the bloom is white, the second
day It turns red and tails off, and
leaves the boil III view, in kind Of
little cup. When tie boil becomes
dotted all over with red spots, re.
sembling a turkey egg, it is then
safe from the ravages OF frost.
When the blooms are upright and
fully open, and filed with rain, the
boil invariably sheds and is lost,
hence, the July rains have liz great
part destroyed the July crop.
