guaranty that the courts will sustain its

talked in a way to warrant the inference
that he will vote for the remodeed New

peror's Feet.
MUNICH, Sept. I6.-The emperor of
Germany to-day started from Erfurt for
Williamson. The road to the railroad
station was lined with children, who
cheered the imperial visitor and threw
flowers across his path. After
inspecting various troops the en-
perOr formally entered Mulhausen
on horseback riding at the head of
his staff. His majesty was pleased TO
find the main thOrOughfares draped
with bunting and flowers and spanned
in many places by trlumphal arches
bearing loyal and patriotic notices and
designs. In addition, the main thor
Oughfare was lined by detachment OF
veteran soldiers of the wars OF 1866 and
1870. The emperor will remain at Null
hausen until Saturday. when he will
probably return TO Berlin.
The EmperOrs speech at Erfurt, as
reported in the Berlin Post, caused a
heavy declinA to-day in all Imperial and
Prussian stocks. The telegraph officials
In some eases refused TO transmit tele-
grams giving the emperor's speech as
the reason for the decline. The official
version of the speech published
in the Relchsanzeiger modifies the
Posts phrasing. According TO this YER
sion the emperor said "COrsican con-
querOr," instead of "COrsican paryenu,"
as the Post has il, and some other diff
ferences are noticeable. Still,the speech
has n warlike tone. recalling the emper-
Or'S earlier manner.

CHURCH UNION
A Meeting in It's Favor Being Held
at Chicago.

CHICAGO, Sept. 16.-The church
unity conference met in this city to-
day, Rev. G. f. Hubert, of Detroit,
presiding. The object of the confer
ence is stated to be to discourage the
intense sectarian spirit at present DOM
inant in the Christian church and to en-
courage the banding together of all
Christian people in a neighborhood
under a. commOn church organization.
Rev. II. H. Human, of Oberlin, O..
opened the discussion of the needs of
the church union, presenting the mis-
sion side of the question. He said that
denominal mission work was greatly
diminishing the fruits of Christian
laborers in foreign fields. The heather
peoples could not comprehend the
reason tor so many divisions of
the church, and attributed it
to selfshness and insincerity.
President G. A. Blanchard, of Wheaton
college, opened the educational phase
OF the subject. His argument was that
the denominational division of the
church were in a great measure respon-
sible for the lack of Christian instruc-
ton in the schools and that they were
greatly diminishing the economy of
school and college management. G. S.
Bullock. missionary in the West In
dies, also spoke.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-The mem
bers of committee appointed at con-
ference of Virginia Republicans here
yesterday put out a call tonight for a
Republican state convention, to be held
at Roanoke, Va, on Oct. l. The docu-
ment ignores Gen. Mahone's chairman
ship of the Republican state committee,
and refers to him as being responsible
for an act of political treason in advis-
ing Virginia Republicans to support the
candidates of another party. Democrats
are arraigned as the enemies of the
South. The call advises the holding of
county conventions to select delegates
for the general gathering at Roanoke.
