THEY WERE OATH BOUND.
A Sensation in the Trial Of Monroe, the
Leader of the Miners.


Knoxville. Tenn, October 6.--1n the case Of
D. b. Monroe, on trial at Clinton for the muir
der of Mitiaman Frank Smith, events took
sensational turn today. Monroe was the
leader of the miners who made the attack
upon Captain Anderson in August last for the
purpose of liberating the convicts at Coal
Creek According to Monroe's own evidence
he was leader Of the roting miners. The at
tempt Of the prosecution to show the exist
ence of an oath-bound organization had failed
up to today, Monroe having testified point
blank to the contrary. Today James De
Gruchy, a young Englshman, testified that
there was such society; that he himself had
been initiated into it, that Monroe was the
head of the society, and had administered the
oath to all the members. The oath was a
horrible one, and the obligation bound the
members not only to absolute secrecy, but to
kill any one who revealed the secrets of the
order
Monroe, who has exhibited great firmness
during the course Of the trial, 1inched at De
Gruch's fatal testimony, but soon recovered
himself. The testimony is all in and argu-
ments Of the counsel have begun. 1t seems
to be the best opinion that Monroe will be
found guilty. II so his punishment will be
death, as under the laws Of Tennessee he will
be guilty of murder in the first degree, as
much as If he had fired the shot that killed
Smith,

A Veteran of tho Polls.

He was a voter from afar-the best beyond a
doubt;
He rolled up majority each day they turned
him out;
No matter what the number of the candidates
who ran,
II he only started early he was sure to get
his man,
But the odds were once against him-though
he wasn't circumspect- .i
For he stuck up with fellow whom nobody
could elect.
But from dawn till dark he voted, till tho
crowd seemed out Of breath,
And his epitaph Is quoted: They 'jes voted
him to DEATH"

A MINISTER'S FALL.
He Is Charged with Stealing and Says He's
(IIilf

Florence, Ala, October 7.-(Special.)-
An Iron City, Tenn, preacher has fallen
from grace in a most undigniied manner.
Elder Wilson, of the Campbellite church
and editor of The Christian Home, caused
a sensation in Iron City yesterday by being
caught stealing from his partner in
grocery store.
Wilson came to Iron City last May. He
was in reduced circumstances and bad
health. When it was learned that he was
a preacher the people gave him succor and
shortly afterwards installed him in their
church. Through the generosity Of his
church people he was enabled to engage
in several enterprises among them a gro
Gerry store. His partner in the store has
been missing cash and an investigation lead
to the arrest of the parson, who confessed
all. Wilson has been turned out of the
church but will not be prosecuted.

Where tower her green hills free;

American Politics.

Mr.. EDITOR: Last evenings
Bulletin contained at the head of
it's editorial column an article on
American political questions which
might have been very instructive
but for a few slight inaccuracies
that crept in, probably without the
knowledge of the editor.
1st. Mr.. Chas. F. Peck, Com
missioner of Labor, ETC., "that man
Peck" of the New York Evening
Post, is not Republican, but a
true blue Democrat, an officer APP
pointed by Ex-Governor Hill, who
has recently come out in a speech
announcing that he, too, is still a
Democrat.
I'd. Mr.. Peck is the Commits
sioner of Labor for the State OF
New York, and not of Massaehu-
sets. though he may possibly have
gone over to a neighboring state
for the figures upon which his re,
port is based.
Sd. The Democrats are not
making the most of his unforu'
nate position" but are doing their
best to suppress his report until
after the election, while the Repub'
licans are making the most OF 1T
By publishing it by the thousands
and sending it all over the coun
sry as a campaign document.
Mr.. Peck started in to prove one
thing, but the result was just the
opposite of what he expected, ano
he was honest enough to publish Il
as he found it; hence he has tounC
himself in hot water.

NEw YoRx, Nov. ls.-Tbe conference
here Of Catholic archhishops concluded this
evening I, is is officially stated that the
conference considered the best means to
provide for religious education of such
children as do not at present attend parochial
schools or Catholic schools of any kind.
Prelates unanimously agreed on the follow
ing resolutions;
First-To promote the erection Of Cath
oiic schools, so that there may be accom-
mediation in them for more. and if possible.
for all Catholic children, according to the
decree of the third plensry coancil Of Bal
timore and decisions of the Holy See.
Second-As TO the children who at pres
ent do not afterd Catholic schools, we di-
rect in addition that provision be made for
them by Sunday schools, also by instrne-
tons in some other day or days of the week,
BY urging the parents to teach the Chris
,ian doctrine in their homes. These Sun
day and week days schools should be under
the direct supervision of the clergy, aided
bv intelligent lay teachers. and when possi-
Bile. by members of religious teaching or
ders.
The report indicates a compromise on the
question. No other decisions upon matters
discussed by the conference will at present
be communicated to the press by the pre-
lates.

ANGRY CREDITORS
OF an Aroostook Firm Seeking How TO Recover
Their lust Dues

PoWrLA>p, Nov. lS.-The creditors of
Black 4 Klein, dealers in peddlers' supplies
etc, presque Isle, are wrought up to quite
IL pitch of indignation over the failure. The
Boston creditors have held meeting and
have chosen a committee to do what is pos
sible in the way of compelling the firm to
paw proper dividend. The firm was noi
represented @at the meeting, but Il. +.
Holmes who had been to Presque Isle to
look into the failure, was able to lay before
the meeting an approximately accurate e.
hibit of the debtors financial condition.
The liabilities are about $40 900 of which
Indebtedness some S20.00o Is to Boston
houses. The assets consist nominally OF
some sl4 SEQ in stock. SIS 200 in accounts
and $500 in horses, wagons harnesses. etc.
The firm claims that the accounts are of
but little value.
The Portland creditors have chosen a
committee to investigate the failure, and
one of the members of that committee was
present at the Boston meeting. lie stated
to the meeting what had been done by the
Portland committee, and said that the feel
ing in Portland was that the creditors should
take stringent measures to get their rights
in the premises,
The Boston meeting, after discussing the
situation quite fully decided to choose q
committee to cooperate with the Portland
committee. and the committee WAS en-
powered % employ lawyers and to incur
any other expenses necessary to protect the
interests of the creditors. The following
persons were selected to act as this com.
mittee Charles Well, u. F. Holmes and
George Il. Fowler. Black & Klein are
ready to pay their creditors 10 cents on q
dollar but they have no notion of sccert'
ing it.
