PursBuRa, May 25-One of the most
important meetings in the history of the
Reformed Presbyterian Church of North
America will begin in this city on We'd
nesday. The coming synod instead of
being called on to decide the cases Of a
dozen preachers charged with holding
diverse courses, 1t will have at least
twenty-five cases of this kind brought be-
fore it. What will make the meeting
especially interesting is the fact that the
dissenting young men will do their fight
ing on the ground that covenanters are
permitted to vote on constitutional
amendments, such as the prohibition

CRY OF MEXICO, via Galveston, May 25.
1t is reported from Central America
that steamer resembling the Itata was
seen last Wednesday by a coasting steam
err, which attempted to approach her.
The vessel was running south, about 30
miles off shore, and sheered off to avoid

nantly denies the reports that he is short
of funds, and to disprove the statements
exhibited to newspaper representative
letters of credit and cash aggregating
upwards Of $50, 900.
I No endorsements have been sent to
Acapulco, the Mexican government regard
ing the garrison there as amply able to
prevent the Esmeralda from forcibly coal
ing or otherwise defying the port regula-
tions. 1t is not feared that the Esmer-
elda will attempt anything Of the kind.

TRENTON, N. j., May 25.-The Star Rub
Der Company's troubles excite much COM
ment in business circles in this city. The
liabilities as estimated are $3.50, 900.
Mortgages aggregating $3.50, 900 will be
given to protect the banks and indorsers
of the company's paper.
The company has doubt, it is said, of
being able to pull through. The credit
ors will probably to-day ask for the ap-
pointment of receiver.
It is claimed by some that the COM
pany's assets will reach nearly as much
as the liabilities, and that the company
will be able to pay dollar for dollar.
JonathanHStewart,t the president, states
that a receiver will be asked for to-day.
It is said that the Chemical Bank of
New York has $50, 600 of the company's

after the commission of the crime wo-
man in this county is about to be accused
in court of poisoning her first husband
in order that she might marry a second,

discovered in 1886 that his wife was un-
faithful to him and he elected her para
mour from the house. .~
The following week the husband died
and arsenic was found in his stomach.

man who caused the trouble. Recently
this man, who, it is alleged, had consid-
cradle power over the woman, was burned
to death in bed under suspicious circum-
stances. .-- ..+ e.

BAD RATIONS
CAUSE MUfNr AMONG THE GRRNADIER
GUARDS AT WINDSOR CASTLE.
A Startling State Of Affairs in the British Army.
A Gulf Between 0fiesrs and ksn-1hs
Second Outbreak in Six
Months.

LONDON, October Military circles
and the public in general were startled
to-day by the publication in the columns
of Truth Of the details Of another muffin
Gus outbreak on the part of the Grena-
der Guards who are now stationed at
Windsor Castle. This second mutiny
in the same battalion within about six
months had its origin in the i'll feeling
permeating many OF the corps OF the
British army on account OF the insuf-
ficient and unpalatable rations which
the men claimed were served TO the men
on their meats on Wednesday, OctO-
Der IA.
These rations they claim were es-
pecially bad and caused the smouldering
feeling of INSTRUMENTATION to break out
into flame. Upon the arrival at the
Guards barracks at Windsor of the Off
Ger Of the day, Lieut.. A. w. l.. Cotton,
part of whose duty it is to pass through
the different mess rooms at meal time in
order to listen to all such complaints,
the privates of No. 1 company, as pre-
viously agreed upon, made formal
complaint about the quality and quanti-
ty of the food served out TO them.
Lieut.. Cotton examined the food COM
planned of and then said that the food
was good and ordered the grenadierS to
eat it. But to the dismay of the officer
of the day the grenadiers of company
No went to the windows Of the mess
room and hurled the unsatisfactory "a
tions into the barrack square.
The officer Of the day, as in duty
bound, reported the occurrence to the
commanding officer. Consequently the
commanding officer ordered company
No. TO be confined to barracks for q
day and placed the corporals of the
same company under arrest pending an
inquiry into the mutinous conduct Of
the privates.
The inquiry made into the outbreak
showed that the grenadiers had upon a
previous occasion complained of the
quality OF the bread served out to them
and that the business of their complaint
not being admitted the men threw
the bread out OF the barracks windows.
The adjutant of the third battalion de-
clared that he was not aware that the
men had so acted, adding that he was
wholly ignorant of the entire incident
and that ne had not received any re-
port on the subject.
Thereupon Truth says: The evidence
of q hundred witnesses can prove these
facts. If such an outbreak and its con-
sequent arrests are possible without a
colonel knowing of them, the worst said
about the gulf separating the officers
from the men is not far short OF the
truth

A STOCK DEAL IN THE COURTS.
Litigation Growing Out of the Trouble
of the Pacific Short Line

Litigation Growing Out of the Troubles
of the Pacific Short Line
SIOUX CITY, IA, October 2S.-Some
recent developments in the affairs of
the bankrupt Pacific Short Line in
vOlVe George r. Blanchard, OF New
York, Chairman of the Central Traffic
Association.
A suit will be tried in q few days, in
Nebraska, in which Blanchard sues
Donald Mclean, late President of the
Short Line, for S., 500.
From Blanchard'S petition and Nc
Leans answer it appears that Blanch-
ard was given some 100000 worth of
promoters stock in the Improvement
Company which was building the road.
OF this all but SS4,00 was sold at %
cents on the dollar. The unsold part
he turned over to Mclean to sell for
him. About this time the promoters of
the company wanted TO buy out Blanch-
ards interest. Blanchard had note for
SIS, 200 in a bank and when it came due
Mclean paid it, to save the credit of
his company.
When McLean's road became bank
rupt Mr.. Blanchard sued Mclean for
s., 500, which, be calculated, was the
amount Of McLean's Indebtedness to
him after deducting $4,000 from S21,-
600, which would have been the value
OF the stock in Dakota.
In his answer Mclean denies the obi
cation for sol, 900, declares that the
stock was fraudulent and has since been
legally declared so, and sets up coun-
ter claim for the SIS, 600 paid by him on
Blanchard'S note. Mclean, and posi-
bly, Blanchard. will be present at the
trial
