Mayor Shakespeare Says BIaine's Course
Is Popular In New Orleans.
ST. LOUIS, May 2S-Mayor Joseph A.
Shakespeare, of New Orleans, is in this
city. He was asked. what Is the position
of the Malta at New Orleans at the present
timer
"They are quiet, quieter than they have
been for years. he replied "The lesson
taught them at the parish prison has had
a most excellent effect, and do not antici-
pate that we will have any further trouble
with them. / do not think that there are
more than 800 Malta in New Orleans at
present, and the number is diminishing

what they have to expect II they indulge
in their peculiar line Of business and can

Mayor Shakespeare believes that Consul
Corte was in sympathy with the criminal

saved his shakespeare life by his infu-

THE ITATAOUT OF SIGHT
The Charleston Has Arrived at
Callao Alone.

She Has Given Our Cruiser the slip and
WIN Probably Reach IquIque in Safety
The Esmeralda Probably Has the Arms
She Carried Away.
IoufoUR, May 2S-word has been re-
ceived here that the United States war
ship Charleston has arrived at Callao,
Peru. It was also announced that she had
not caught sight Of the transport Itata
since leaving Acapulco, Mexico
Naturally enough the rejoicing in this
city at the escape Of the Itata is great. 1t
is now believed that she will reach some
friendly port without further trouble. Her
eluding Of the feet Charleston is the tall.
all over the city, for the news Of the
Charleston's arrival at Callao without the
Itata has spread like wildfre.
The EsmeraIda Has Them.
But even had the Charleston caught the
Itata il is very doubtful If any Of the arms
or ammunition which the latter vessel re-
ceived from the schooner Robert and
Minnie, at San Diego, Cal. would have
been found. The general impression among
the best informed people here is that the
Chilian insurgent warship Esmeralda lons
since transferred the much desired mum
itions Of war from the ftata, and has by
her subsequent actions pretty well pulled
the wool over the eyes OF the Charleston.
Il is said that the plan that has been
adopted is TO have the Esmeralda, If she
really has the arms and ammunition
aboard, to delay some little time before at
tempting TO deliver them.

J THIRD PARTY MgN pgEgArEp.
The Ohio Farmers Union Has Refused
70 Indnrse the Movement.

The Ohio Farmers Union Has Refused
% Tnd2rse the Movement.
CcI-MHus, O., May as--After having
discussed a resolution calling for a third
party convention from o'clock In the after.
noon until almost II at night, the Ohio
Farmers union finally defeated the project.
The vote by which the convention refused
to indorse the third party movement was
SO yeas to "a nays. The third party move
ment was led by President Ellis, Of the
State Grange; President Iikins, of the
Open Alliance; ex-Allianee Lecturer Mil
Ter Purvis and others. Colonel j. H.
Brigham, General Hurst and many of the
best known figures in Ohio Farmers or
ganizations vehemently opposed the plan
of independent action. During the even
ing session many politicians were upon
the floor Of the convention and mingling
freely with the'delegates endeavoring to in
fiuence them for or against the resolution.
This action OF the union in refusing 10
indorse the third party movement ia Ohio
was somewhat unexpected.
The indications during the entire day
had been to the effect that the third party
men would meet with very slight although
determined opposition. Immediately aftes
defeating the resolution the conventions
adjourned to meet at the call Of the execur
tive committee. No effort was made ta
secure a reconsideration of the vote by
which the resolution had been lost, and Ia
was thus effectually killed.

Reformed Presby u rlans AFeet.


PTTTsBURG, May 2S-It was exactly 10:30
a. IN. when the sixty. second annual synod
OF the Reformed Presbyterian church of
North America was called to order by
Moderator Rev. ID. H. Coulter, Of Win
chester, Kan, There were present about
200 delegates representing ll5 of the 100
congregations in North America.
When the names of Rev S. A. George,
Of Ohio, and Rev. X. Clyde, of Iowa, were
called it was announced that these minis
ters were under suspension, and their
names were taken from the roll. The read
ing Of the name Of Rev J. B. McClurkin,
one Of the original seyen,n brought Rev.
David McAllister to his feet with the an
nouncement that the Rev McClurkin had
since his suspension accepted a pastorate
in the United Presbyterian church A
motion to expel DR. McClurkin from the
Reformed Presbyterian church was passed
unanimously. The committee on pro
gramme of exercises recommended that
the first days session be given up to prayer
and fasting and the report was adopted
Elder James S. Macarthur, of Allegheny,
then entered the pulpit and conducted the
services.
No Hope for the Suspended Men.
The great majority Of the delegates pres
ent are strict conservatives This fact is
sufficient ground upon which to base the
prediction that the liberal minded minis
ters, who demand the right to vote, will
receive no favors at the hands of the synod
The suspended clergymen who have ap-
pealed from the finding of their respective
presbyteries convicting them of heresy are
present, but they are almost unanimous
in the belief that their appeal for a re-
versal Of the decree of their presbyteries
will not be granted.
Rev. Wiley for Moderator.
The Rev. r. c. Wiley, of Ray, Ind, was
elected moderator Of the Reformed Pres
byterian synod last night by a vote of "a
