Very Odd Requests From a Famous Old
Presbyterian Minister.
The will of the late DR.. John Douglas,
attorney at law and Presbyterian minister.

strument is an odd one. After declaring it
his last will, ETC., he saws:
81 owe no man anything and have no
debts. direct and positively order that
the expenses Of my burial shall not exceed
S75. and that my coffin shall be made of
plain boards, without adornment or decora-
tion of any kind.

that men are saved when alive, it will not

DANGER In ENGLISH CARS.

Another Instance Showing the American
Plan of Coaches Is the Best-An En-
glishwoman Alone in a Compartment
With a Clerical Scoundrel.
LONDON, Jan. Notwithstanding the
terrible injuries sustained by Mrs. Siddals,
the woman who on Monday night last
jumped from rapidly moving train near
Tamworth, presumably to escape the ad-
vances of Rev. Mr.. Gooddel, she is now i'm
proving and hopes are entertained that she
will recover. Mrs. SiddalS regained con-
sciousness today.
Her story confirms in substance the theory
formed by the police. Mrs Siddals SAYS
that the minister engaged her in conversa-
tion after they had ridden some distance
together, and after a time he attempted
liberties which she repulsed. He became
very angry and grasped her by the throat,
preventing her from making any outcry.
He then forced her down on the seat.
Owing to the peculiar construction of
English railway coaches it was impossible
for the other passengers or guards to know
what was going on in the compartment
Mrs. Siddals struggled desperately and
finally the preacher, whether to escape de-
lection or to cause her death, is not known,
pushed her out of the compartment
Fortunately she caught upon the foot
board as she was falling and regained her
footing. She says, however that she was
so terribly excited that she did not realize
the danger OF jumping, and, with only the
idea OF escaping the man, she leaped from
the carriage and remembers nothing further.
Gooddel will shortly be arraigned.

ming, but his friends, anxious to prevent the

Murat Halstead, who arrived in London
from Paris yesterday evening, in an inter-
view to-day, said:
The point that most impressed me in re-
gard to the effects in Europe of the Mckin-
ley law, is the antagonism of certap lead
ing German journals toward Mr.. Blaine. 1
attribute this to the fact that the reci-
procity clause is expected to prejudice Ger
man interests in South America to the
benefit of the United States. The new Ger
man law under which foreigners resident in
Germany become liable to pay a per cent
income tax. will drive out of Germany a
large number OF Americans now living there
on incomes.

JUDGE WOODS PRETTY SOLID.
Voorhees, Protest Against Him Not Though
Likely to Be Sustained,

Voorhees, Protest gainst Him Not Thought
Likely to Be Sustained.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. 15.-The Sem
ate Committee on Judiciary was in session
for several hours this afternoon considering
the judicial nominations. Senator Turpie
appeared before the committee to protest
against the confirmation of Judge Woods
nomination to fill the place in the Fifth
Judicial circuit. Senator Voorhees,, who is
the principal opponent to the nomination,
is not in Washington, and will not reach
here before next week. 1t is the intention
of the opponents of the nomination to use
every effort, meanwhile, to postpone decis-
i've action upon it until the Indiana Sena-
tor returns to Washington. 1t was repre-
sented to the committee, in pursuance of
this programme, that it would not be proper
to dispose of the case until Mr.. Voorhees,
had had an opportunity to be heard, so
without objection the nomination was laid
aside for time. The same course was
followed as to the remaining ju-
dical nominations, the intention of the
committee being to act upon them all at
the same time. From what can be gathered
from interested persons, the opposition to
Judge Woods nomination is not likely to
have the support of any Republican Sena-
tors, and it will doubtless be confirmed in
course of time.
1t appears that some protests have also
been filed against the confirmation of Judge
Mccormick, nominated to fill place on the
Texas circuit. These protests, it is said,
grow out of the action of the Judge in dis
posing of house presented to him bv ci til
zens of Graham. Tex, as an inducement to
cause him to reside in that place.

RELIEF FOR THE RUSSIANS.

The House May Yet Be Shamed Into Eefus-
ing MIR. Furness' Offer.
WASHINGTON, D. G., Jan. 15.-The call
made by Mr.. Furness, of England, to-day,
for subscriptions from British shipowners
to defray the cost of transporting American
flour contributions to the Russian famine
sufferers, may result in the Senate resolu-
tion authorizing the lease of a vessel in
which to send American food contributions
again being chilled up in the House.
Mr.. Lind, who represents one of the
Minnesota districts which was most active
in the work of relief, said to-day, when he
heard of the action of Mr.. Furness, that he
felt like offering vote of thanks to Mr.
Furness, but was afraid it might be taken
too seriously. Other friends of the Senate
resolution expressed themselves as ashamed
at the circumstance that made it possible
for such movement to be started by a rep
resentative of Great Britain. Opponents of
the resolution were inclined to look upon
the movement of Mr.. Furness as mere
buncombe.

Secretary Noble Wants Congressman to
Look Out for the Trees.
WAsHINGToN, d. c., Jan. 15.-Secre-
tary Noble has write Ell letters to the Senate
and House Committees on Public Lands,
urging that prompt and efficient steps be
taken by Congress to protect and preserve
from depredations the forest reservations
which have recently been created by procla-
nation of the President. The Secretary has
taken a deep interest in the nature of forest
reserves claiming thst only by preserving the
forests at the headwaters of the mountain
streams the middle and far West can these
streams be kept from drying up and the
country tributary to them lapse again into
an arid waste
The Secretary believes that the danger
from this source is imminent, and for this
reason he thinks that whatever is done in
this direction must be speedily DONE Fires
every year devastate large tracts Of forest
lands, and depredations from one source or
another render prompt preservative meas
ures absolutely essential. Within the next
20 years the Secretary predicts the wisdom
of preserving the forests of the West will
have become universally recognized.

LONDON, jar. 15.-The decorous fiction
that the whole nation is overwhelmed with
grief at the death of the Duke of Clarence
received startling denial to-day in the
proceedings of the greatest workmen's s
union in England. The delegates to the
Miners Federation, now holding its annual
meeting at Stoke-on-Trent, were apprised
before assembling that their representatives
in Parliament desired that the federation
adopt a resolution of coincidence.
The strong democratic feeling known to
sutfuse the body made the proposal hazard
Gus, but 1t was hoped that the delegates
would not venture to deviate from the gen.
eral custom by declaring that the death in
the royal family was no particular business
of theirs. This is exactly what they did. A

progress whatever was made to-day by the
revision committee of the Presbyterian
General Assembly toward final settle
ment of the all-important, and, as it has
| proved, exceedingly knotty question OF
| preterition-the clause in the Westminster
confession which states the fate to which
God has ordained or doomed the non-elect
millions of the earth.
The subcommittee of five, to which the
| troublesome clause was referred, did not re-
port because of the illness of Dr. Morris,
| one of the members. DR.. Morris is con-
| fined to his rooms in the Everett House
with what appears to be an attack of the
grip. The report of the committee may,
therefore, be deferred for some days.
The same members of the committee were
present to-day as on the day previous, with
the exception of DR.. Morris The commit
tee took up chapter 4, ''Of Creation" The
old confession, in the first paragraph of this
chapter, recites that 'the heavens and the
earth, with all that they contain, were
made by Him in six days. The change
proposed by the former Revision Commit
tee was to make it read Sin six creative
days" The paragraph was finally so
changed to-day as to read Sin the space of
six days" thus expurging the word s'crea-
tive" and inserting the words ''the space
Of" This was considered to be perfectly
satisfactory.
Chapter 3, of providence" was left as
amended by the last committee. The pro-
posed change in section of chapter G, s'Of
the Fall of Man, was deferred. So was
the change in section of chapter Z. Sec
tions and of the same chapter were con-
sidered, and no change made Chapter 8,
'Of Christ the Mediator" was considered
and no change made. Chapter 9, s'Of the
Holy Spirit" was recommitted.
In chapter 10, 'Of Free WILL" section 1
was amended so as to read: ''God hath en-
dued the will of man with that natural lib
erty that it is neither forced nor by any alb
solute necessity of nature determined, to
good or evil; wherefore man is, and remains,
free moral agent, retaining full RESPONSE
bility for all his acts, and his states alike

The committee will continue its labors to-
morrow.

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-[ Special 1.-The

each day. The views of Public Works
Commissioner Gilroy, who has been men,

admirer of Senator HILL Corporation
Counsel Clark said: ''The fame of Senator
Hill as broad-minded, loyal Democrat,
ceased to be confined to this State years ago.
With a man of less force and ability
in the gubernatorial chair, it is likely
that the Republicans would have sue
ceeded in stealing enough seats
in our Senate to give them majority The
evils of this would have been widespread,
and would, in all probability. haye lost this
State to the Democrats in the coming Presi-
dental fight. This being the case, who shall
say that Senator Hill has not saved the
nation for the Democracy? This work of

desire that he be nominated for President is
deep in every Democratic heart
President Barker, of the Tax Department,
said that in his opinion the nomination of
Senator Hill would assure the success of
the Democracy. The opinions of w. Bourke
Cochran concerning the qualifications of
Senator Hill for any Office in the gift of the
people are well known. He believes that
as a Presidential candidate the Senator

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 15.-[ Special. 1.-The
last few days number of the steamboats, in
the river trade have been tied up in conse-
quence of the cold weather-not because the
ice interfered with them, but because tine
colored roustabouts declared they wanted
double pay for working in such cold weather,
and asked for S120 month pay and board.
The steamboat owners declared they were
unwilling to pay the amount for unskilled
labor, and have laid up their boats in con-
sequence.
