greater part OF it is carried on. From this
she proceeded briefly to touch on legisla-
tion in England as it concerns the liquor
law, and put in word for women suffrage
as the "open sesame" to prohibition. She
had statistics by rote, and when she empha-
sized her thoughts by illustrations she
usually framed these last in some rather
startling figures. Finally she drew hope
full picture of the coming spring elections,
for which the Liberals are framing a bill for
women suffrage, a movement OH their part
met in an equally gallant fashion by the
Conservatives, who will introduce similar
bill a month earlier.
Lady Henry then queried if this was not
something like the signs of the times of the
millennium. She closed with story of the
TRANSPORTATION on the Mount, and in few
master strokes drew panoramic picture of
what TRANSPORTATION meant in the nine
teenth century. Through the medium of
Queen Victoria as a noble example of
womanhood, the speaker gracefully alluded
to Frances Willard as not only an Ameri-
can woman, but the worlds woman, and

Lady Henry proved herself to be one
speaker in a thousand. No word fell cafe
lessly from her lips, her intonation had
little dramatic variation and yet was with
out monotony. Her repose was perfect and
her large, well-formed hands remained abso-
lutely quiet except when a page of her
manuscript required to be turned. 1t was
mostly notes and but seldom referred to.
She began with low spoken words of well
come to the Welsh workers and begged to
be permitted to call them her friends.
Touching reference was made to the home
land, and as Lady Henry held dafodil in
her outstretched hand, while she described
the country of Monmouthshire where they
grew in the open air, few sobs could
be heard from time to time in the audience.
She told how one Welsh lady had brought
her face to face with life and its seriousness.
And when she said the word Welsh there
was not Welshman's right hand that was
not busy with his left one.
Then Lady Henry told several incidents
in connection with her experience among
the Welsh people where her initial work

she left an invitation for his men to be

conference of the local W. G. T. Q. in the
Smithfeld Street NJ E. Church, where she
spent the time between an address and
making answer to queries sent in by the
various representatives present.

Said Miss Willard: sI went with Lady

tion, through the exhibition grounds the

to make her train for fear she should keep

During the conference Lady Henry Som

sat listening quietly by the door, and when
the meeting was over went out without
half dozen people being aware of her
presence. She was dressed English street
fashion in dark walking gown, small
bonnet and veil, and was almost hidden in
her heavy furs.

NOT ALL BROTHERLY.
SOME PRESBYTERIAN OPPOSITION TO
A MORMON PLAN.

All the Members OF tho Church Not in
Favor Of Worship in tho Tabernacle
They Think 1t Would Be q Disgrace to
Them.
NEW YORK, March 17.-[Specia. News
comes to this town by way of Cincinnati,
that some uneasiness has been aroused in
the minds of New York Presbyterians by
the rumor that the Mormon authorities have
offered the use of their Tabernacle, at Salt
Lake City, to the commissioners on their
way to the General Assembly which meets
in Portland, Ore, next May.
The New York correspondent of the Herald
and Pres6yter, Presbyterian organ pub
lished in Cincinnati, says he has not been
able to verify the report. 'It is possible"
he says, ''that such an invitation has been
given out from Salt Lake City, but it is
hardly probable that it would be accepted.
Such recognition of Mormon politeness
would be disgrace to the Presbyterian
Church"
Several ministers approved the opinion
of the writer, who is New York clergyman
himself, and thought that 1t would be an
outrage for good Presbyterians to worship
in the Mormon Tabernacle. The writer of
this can state there is more than rumor in
the report. The plan to stop at Salt Lake
City and hold service in the Tabernacle has
appeared as part of the itinerary of a
special excursion for which arrangements
are now being made by the Rev. Frederick
e. Shearer, a Presbyterian clergyman of
San Francisco and brother of Dr. George
L. Shearer, of this city, formerly Moderator
of the New York Presbytery.
Rev. Mr.. Shearer has been distributing
circulars among the New York ministers
who expect to go to Portland. Stops are to
be made at Denver and at Salt Lake City,
and at the latter town the feature of the
visit Is to be good Presbyterian service to
be held in the Mormon Tabernacle by
special arrangements with the saints. 1t is
to be an event of note, for it is the first
time, the circular says, that anything but a
Mormon service has been held there Rev.
Mr.. Shearer is in New York just now, but
he could not be found to-day to give his
opinion concerning the opposition which
has been aroused against this part of his

Willard's secretary, Miss Gordon, wa
taken quite ill in the afternoon and was
forced to retire. Her indisposition re-
mained so persistent that she was unable to
be at Old City Hall in the evening, where
both Miss Willard and Lady Henry deliv-
cred addresses to an audience that almost
packed the house.
Some effort, though not exactly a happy
one, had been made to prepare the dingy
old hall for the distinguished ladies. The
chairs stood, as they always do, on top of
each other on the platform, but the black
ness of the surrounding walls was some
what hidded by bunting and numerous
small flags. A little table stood in the
center of the platform and upon it was the
only touch of brightness about-two vases
of spring flowers and roses. Behind the
table were the two chairs set apart for Lady
Henry and Miss Willard. The fiuttering of
women's handkerchiefs and the cheering of
the men announced the fact as the ladies
reached the foot of the dais, and when the
piano struck up bar of "God Save the
Queen" the immense audience rose to its

CLEVELAND WAS COAXED.

A Hurried Conference of His Friends That
Prevented His Publishing q Letter Re-
fusing to Run for President-Twas His
Wife Who Saved the Situation.
NEW YORK, March 17.-Notwithstanding
all that is said concerning the anxiety Of
Mr.. Cleveland to be renominated for the
Presidency, the Telegram says it is in a po-
sition to announce, on unimpeachable
authority, that the ex-President recently
wrote letter declaring that he would not
allow himself to be put in nomination. This
letter was written in vigorous and sweeping
language. Mr.. Cleveland said in the strong
est and simplest way that he would not ac-
cept nomination.
No one but Mrs. Cleveland knew of the
letter The ex-President penned it without
the knowledge of his political friends, in
order to prevent them from attempting to
interfere with his action. MI. Cleveland
intended to make the letter public through
the Associated Press, and it was written
with that purpose in view.
On the very day that the declination was
to be published Mrs. Cleveland saved the
situation by sending for one of the leaders
most trusted friends. To this gentleman
Mr.. Cleveland frankly confessed that he
was SICK OF tne uttleness ana chickering's
and insults that daily infringe upon his
private life; that he had not lifted so much
as his little finger to secure nomination;
that nothing would induce him to enter the
race, and that he had plainly said so in
letter that could be printed at once.
After a few minutes conversation Mr..
Cleveland's friend induced him to promise
that the letter would not be given to the
Associated Press for "a hours Word was
sent to several of the most faithful and
level-headed Cleveland men, and a council
was hurriedly held. MI Cleveland spoke
with great feeling at this council, but he
was at last persuaded to withdraw the

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, March 1.-THE
National Republican Committee has acted
upon the matter of furnishing newspaper
men with seats on the convention hall stage,
and the number is limited to 224. The
Press Committee has received applications
for $50 seats, but thought that perhaps 800
would be sufficient. There is difference of
about 100. The National Committee has
complete jurisdiction in this matter.
1t is probable that compromise will be
effected, however, and something like 300
seats be provided for active newspaper
workers Delaney and Cook, the con-
tractors, yesterday begun operations at the
