How the Examination is Being Con-
 ducted-Hfnts of New Evidence.
 TAUNTON, Mass, Nov. 16.-Eavesdrop- pers have no chance at getting a orumb from the grand jury room where the Bor- den case is under examination. A deputy sheriff and stalwart policeman guard the door and people are kept at proper dis tance. When witnesses arrive at the court house they are quickly secluded from in terviewers, or if one succeeds in eluding the watchful eye of an officer for moment and talks with an innocent stranger, the thread of conversation is snapped short when the eye of the warden takes in the situation. It is given out it will take all of this week and portion of next, before a report is made to the court. There are hints, however, that there is a lot of new evidence that will clinch the matter of an indictment, and much of it will come from chemical experts who did not show their hand at the preliminary examination.

BASEBALL GOSSIP.
Discussing Proposed Changes in the
 Playing Rules.

CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-Baseball was the only talk heard in Richelieu hotel to-day. The board of directors of the National league were in session. All the directors were present at the meeting, which was held behind closed doors. The chief topic of discussion of the meeting was the pro- posed changes in rules, viz., lengthening the distance between bases to ninety-three feet, placing the pitcher in the center of the diamond, abolishing the bunt and call ing foul tip strike. It was the gossip that no changes will be made at this meet ing The most in that direction, it Is said, would be the appointment of a committee to recommend changes at the spring meet ing.
 The meeting of the league proper will follow the meeting of the directors. At the meeting of the league the award of the penant to Boston will be made.

 vanced Position - The Vatican
 Greatly Interested.
 NEW YORK. Nov. 1.-Two sessions of the Catholic conference were held today, the second closing at 6:30 p. m. The chief subject discussed today was the relation of the state to parochial schools. Arch bishop Ireland has taken advanced grounds upon this subject, and his position has been closely criticized by Roman Catholic pre- lates in this country snd at the vatican. It is more than likely that upon the results of this conference will largely depend the financial future of the psrochisl schools of America. The debate was animated and intensely earnest No definite conclusions were reached and the matter will be again discussed tomorrow. The deepest inter est in the matter is felt at the vatican.

 Appropriations Are Insumcfent.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-Commodore Farquhar, chief of the bureau of yards and decks, in his annual report expresses re- gret that the appropriations for the main tenance of navy yards and stations are so limited that it has not been possible to keep pace in repairs with the deterioration.

Scotland, who enioy what are known in
the north as TENDS, will DO very appar-
ent in this year On both sides OF the
Tweed grain prices are higher for the
year, but in England the clergy will re-
ceive little Immediate benefit from the
rise. because By the seven years average
it is spread over SO long a time that the
most that can be hoped for from the
good prices of 1891 is to stop the fall
which has been going on every year
without break since 1878, a longer
period of successive annual declines in
the value of the tithe than has ever be-
fore occurred.
But in Scotland the tend is calculated
ON the grain prices of each year, so that
the parish ministers who have endured
tho discomforts which low prices brought
with them when grain was cheap will
now have directly the advantages OF
higher prices when grain has risen. In
England both the rise aud the fall are
retarded by the seven years average.

The New York Press calls attention to
the fact that Mr.. Cleveland earned for q
TIME after his release from presidential
duties the title OF the great American
letter writer.
So many of his opistles found their
way into print that they became a drug
in newspaper offices. The demand for
them fell off and then the supply
stopped. Within the past two months
the Cleveland pen has again begun to
flow. The latest letter is one written
two days after the Rhode Island elec-
tioon. 1t is addressed to Mr.. James III.
Bible, a prominent Democrat OF Chatta-
nooga, and may be taken as expressing
the ex-president's feelings on the sub
ject OF a presidential nomination. Tie
expresses to Mr.. Bible his anxiety that
the Democratic party shall do exactly
the right thing at the Chicago conven'
tion, and his hope that "the delegates
will be actuated by true Democratic
spirit and the single desire to succeed
on principle"
Considering Mr.. Cleveland's attitude
toward the theft OF the New York leg
islature by the Democracy, his express
sion OF a" desire to succeed on princi-
Pile" is rank hypocrisy. In the next
sentence after the one just dissected
Mr.. Cleveland makes a confession as
follows: 81 have frequent misgivings
as to the wisdom OF again putting me
in nomination" This is at once an ad-
mission that he is candidate for the
presidential nomination and an ac-
acknowledgement that the Rhode Island
returns admonish him that he will
surely be beaten II he gets the nomina.
