faulter to the extent OF about SlS,000.

tinued absence caused an investigation
Of his books, with the above result.

was president. The directors Of the
fund could get only . per cent, and at
his solicitation Mr.. Marsh put it out at
6per cent. II was drawn out in Sep.
tember. Alb. Wanamaker did not think
he ever assigned the Keystone stock he
held from Lucas.
Mr.. Etting-I have been told that two
hundred thousand dollars or upwards
OF money was obtained at one time
from Mr., Bardsley by Marsh and that
the same sum or thereabouts was
loaned by Marsh to you. Have you
any knowledge OF anything OF that kind?
Mr. Wanamaker-1 never had cent
from Mr.. Bardsley through Marsh, or
Jones, or Smith.
Mr.. smith-You have'now no other
choice except to regard the possession
OF the Reading stock as full equivalent
for the return Of the bank stock?
Mr.. Wanamaker-I make no claim
against the Lucas estate.
Mr.. Drew in his testimony said that
the now fugitive president Of the bank,
Marsh, had first told him Of the over
issued stock, and that he told Marsh it
must be returned.

Session of tho International Union ut
Boston.
BosToS, Mass, June s-The Inter.
ternational typographical Union, in
Faneuil Hall this morning, began its
thirty-ninth annual convention. After
addresses OF welcome had been made
and responded to, President Edward T.
Pland, OF Indianapolis, said, in relation
to a reduction of the number of hours
OF labor, that the movement is one that
should only be undertaken when fully
prepared for an earnestandlongstr
and then only by concentrated action
by all unions at the same time. Under
the circumstances it would be good
plan, he said, to adopt resolution at
this session and submit the question to
a popular vote whether or not we shall
mako an attempt TO enforce nine hour
day next spring.
Drafts upon the fund during the year
had been very heavy, the address said,
the number OF lockouts, strikes, etc,
having been large.
The Treasurer's report showed re-
ceipts OF S53, ,43S, and expenditures OF
$500 over receipts, The cash balance

The Trial of the Suspended Reformed
PresbyterInn MInIsters.

Presbyterian ministers.
PrrnBuRaH, Pa, June s.lThe Re
formed Presbyterian Synod resumed
the trials of the suspended ministers at
1890 o'clock this morning. Rev. A. w.
McClurkin, one OF the accused, made .
lengthy argument in his own defense
and Rev. "A. NJ. Milligan followed in the
same strain. The tenor OF the argu-
ments was that the suspended ministers
were guilty OF no wrong doing.
The long drawn out trial of the eleven
ministers and incidentally four SYM
pathizers continued this afternoon with
unabated vigor on both sides. A pro
test was made by several conservatives
that the defense must confne them
selves 10 answering charges and not
take up too much time.
Mr.. Reed finally did make a startling
statement. He said that the question Of
forninga new organization was discuss
ed at the East End meeting, and that q
motion was made to form such an or
ganization, which motion he thought
was carried. He heard from Others that
it did not carry. Rev. w. L. @. Samson
was next heard, when the convention
adjourned till morning.

New Yonx, June s.-The steamer
Orange FROM Port Au Prince brings the
first definite news of the lato insurrec-
ton in Hayti. The uprising was of a
serious character, but the government
reprossed the rebellion by prompt and
stern measures. Insurrectionists storm
ed the prison at Port Au Prince and q
number of prisoners were released,
when the military appeared on the
scene and captured the whole party.
Frederick Douglass, United States
Minister to Hayti, was expected to sail
by this steamer, but owing to the ex-
citement he decided to postpone his
departure until next month. Martial
law has been declared, and some sixty
persons had been shot on May 2s. Hip

LONDON, June S.-The report that the
Prince OF Wales is in debt to Arthur
Wilson is denied on scmi-oiIicial auth
ority, and asunday newspaper, which
had given out anintention ofpublishing
something about the matter, received a
plain intimation that proceedings
would follow. The Royal family has
grown tired OF the continual libels
circulated about its members, and
future attacks Of serious charac-
ter will he met by u resort to the
courts. Royalty has been an eXcep-
tion to all England in passing unnoticcd
charges OF libelous nature. No Eng
lishman ever neglects an oppor-
tunity to bring libel suit, and
unless he has a very bad case he
usually wins. 1t has become known,
however, that members OF the
Queens family would not go into the
court, and consequently half the stock
in trade OF sensational English publica-
tons is to copcoct stories about the
royal house In future, it is understood,
such matters will not be treated with
the same Indifference as in the past.

1t is estimated that from 5000 to 10000
men are thrown into state OF idleness
through the strike which commenced
yesterday. The amount of inconven-
iencc which the workirgmen and bust,

All the yards Of the General Omnibus
Company are strongly "picketed" by
the men on strike and the usually
swarming busy streets OF the metropolis
present adcserted and forlorn appear
ance, owing to the absence OF the
"busses" generally weighted down with
passengers inside and out to the utmost
CARRYING capacity OF the vehicles. Only
the tram cars and few ':pirqtes" OF
"scab" busscs are TO be seen here and

creased prices, but the public generally
are charry Of patronizing them.
The road car company came to q
decision today to oller twelve hours
work per day from July 10, drivers to
be paid six shillings per day, and after
a years service six shillings and six
pence per day, and conductors to re-
ceive four shillings and six pence per
day, and after q years service five

SONS or VERMONT IN CHICAGO
The IIIh AnaHaI Meeting and banquet
Of the Association.

OF the Association.
The Sons of Vermont in Chicago held
their 4th banquet at the Auditorium Hotel
in that city on Friday evening of last
week, when covers were laid for a company
of $50 ladies and gentlemen, coming from
all parts of the West. Maj John NJ. South
worth, the president of the association
gave the address of welcome, saying that
this gathering celebrated the ll4th ami
veTsary of Vermont's declaration of indie
pendence and the Tooth of her admission to
the Union. Hon. H. II Powers, of Nor
risville, member of Congress elect from the
first Vermont district, was the orator of the
evening. His address was devoted mainly
to recalling the early history of the state
and the struggles through which its people
went in establishing its independence, and
to emphasizing the lessons taught by the
succession of patriotic events which led up
to the admission of the state to the Union
in 1891.
An interesting portion Of the Grafton was
that in which Judge Powers pointed out that
from the meeting of the Westminster con
vention in l111, until March 4. 1891, when
admission to the Union took place. Vermont
was an absolutely independent state--as
Independent of the other states of the Union
as she was of Great Britain.
For IL years, we had the anomalous
spectacle of a full-hedged. fully equipped,
independent state, surrounded on four sides
by hostile neighhors, all intent upon captur-
ing some or all of her territory, and reduc-
ing her people to their sovereignty and
control
