rhe Asssult on the Polar n.nr.

WASHINGTON. Aug 15.-The firing of
rifle balls into the pilot house of the Polar
Bear by detachment pf marines from
the United States steamship Yorktown,
in which the Chief Engineer of the steamer
was dangerously wounded, may turn out
a serious matter if the engineer dies.
While nothing definite has been received
as to the occurrence, from newspaper re-
ports it would seem that the Polar Bear
was mistaken by the marines for poach-
ing vessel, and as they had positive or
ders when they were left at False Pass by
the Yorktown, TO allow no vessel TO pass
by, they probably acted little hasty in
the matter.

CHURCH ORGANIZATIONS
Statistics of Denominations in
the United States.
NEARLY t5o SEPARATE sEoTs.

Extracts From Supt. Portsr's Address al
Asbury Park--sub-Divisions of the BaP-
tist Cburches--Roman Catholic In
crease--Colored Denominations.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-Supt Robert
?. Porter, in an address at Asbury Park
yesterday, made public the preliminary
figures of the church statistics of the
eleventh census, which are both curious
and interesting.
There are shown to be in the United
States nearly 100 separate and distinct
church organizations, holding different
creeds, varying greatly in practice, and
representing all possible variations of
church polity.
There are various churches that
claim to be simply brethren There are
two Reformed churches, known as the
Reformed Church Of America" and
the Reformed Church in the United
States"
Some of the denominations were never
numbered BEFORE and it required the ut
most powers of persuasion to induce them
to submit to the process. Sects have
been found and enumerated which claim
COMMITMENTS.
seven sects which altogether number
only about 1000 members and yet own
church edifices worth $40, 900: Shakers,
Amananites, Mennonite, Harmony, Sep.
artists, New lcarian and Altruists.
All societies observing the communal
life, whether founded on a religious OF
secular basis, are embraced in the re-
turns. Two of these societies are not re-
ligious, the Icarian and the Altruist, but
are organized to apply social principle.
After the seven great denominations
Congregational Lutheran, Methodist,
Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, Baptist
and Episcopal, have been accounted for
the other 134 religious associations repre-
sent less than 10 per cent. of the church
edifices and less than IL per cent of the
aggregate value of church property.
Some of the ubdivisions of the Bap-
tist churches are peculiar. The uninitiated
person finds it difficult to define the diff
ference between the Seventh Day and the
Six Principle Baptists. between the Mud
head and lie River Brethren between
the PriIniti,l ind the Free Will, between
the original Free win and the Old-Two-
Seed-in- Spirit, between the General and
the General Free Will. Besides these there
are also the Regular South, the Regular
North, and the Regular Colored Bap-
fists.
The Society of Friends are divided into
the Orthodox and Hicksite, the Wilbur
ite and Primitive branches There are
IL or lS different branches of the Luth-
eran churches in this country.
According to the returns of the 11th
census the number of communicates in
five principal religious denominations for
which the statittics have been completed
are as follows;
Congregational, 512, nj; Lutheran, l.
1919, ola; Methodist, 4, 255, 311; Presbyter-
ian, !, l,27S, $40; Roman Catholic 6, 250, 045;
total, 3,49G, ,522.
The communicants Of the Baptist and
! Episcopal with those Of other denomina-
tions viii bring the aggregate up to about
/ 10000, 600
The statistics of the colored denomina-
tions likewise show great progress. Their
denominations number 16. They have a
total membership of 1870, 100, and own
church property valued at $13, 403, 900.

REBATE TO BE TAKEN OFF.
The Dorhinion VIII Make Proposition
to the United states.

to the United states
MoNTf REAL, Que, Aug. 15.-It is learned
to-day, )that at the secret meeting of the
Dominion Cabinet here, on Saturday, it
was de fided to make a proposition TO the
United States Government, assuring it
that q hnada was desirous of having most
friendly relations, and that in order to
avoid jail difficulties the rebate on grain
passing through the St. Lawrence canals
will tbe withdrawn at the end of the pres
ent season of navigation. An effort will
then lbe made to have a conference be-
tweei the two governments, so that all
differences may be adjusted
I be government is anxious to appease
the UNITED States government and at the
sante time to act with justice toward
thf grain men who have made large con
traIcts for the present season on the basis
of Ehe rebates An official statement of
the governments decision will be pub
lisIhed in the ministerial papers and the
proposition will be conveyed to the Ameri-
chn authorities.
The reason the meeting was held here,
Instead of in Ottawa, was that Premier
SIR John Abbott is in poor health and
WISHED to avoid the fatigue of a journey
10 Ottawa.
The meeting was held at the Premier's
Ihouse and occupied nearly the whole of
Lthe day. Sir John Abbott presided, and
JAIL the Ministers with the exception of
Secretary of State Patterson were pres
ent.
Nearly the whole of the session was oc-
cupied with the consideration of the m at
ter of canal tolls and what action should
be taken by the Canadian Government to
| avoid retaliation by the United States.
| The whole subject was fully discussed,
Rnd the decision as given above was reach
| ed before the session closed.

THE IRON HALL CASE.
All Efforts at Compromise Have Come to
Naught.


INDIANAPOLIS, Aug 15.-The forty mem
bers OF the Supreme Sitting, who are in
vestigating the affairs of the Iron Hall,
are still in the city and say they will stay
until the hearing of the petition for re-
ceiver is acted upon.
Some of them have been making an eff
fort TO compromise the case, but this
morning the attorney says that there will
be no compromise. One of the stories is
that Mr.. Somerby is willing to retire as
the head of the order in case the suit for a
receiver is dismissed, and another is that
Supreme Cashier Davis and Supreme Ac-
countant Walker were informed that they
might continue to hold their positions as
supreme officers with increased power and
perhaps salaries in case they would in
duce the plaintiffs to dismiss the suit.
Several judges and prominent attor-
neys interviewed to-day express the opin-
ion that receiver ought to be- appointed.
On the evidence already admitted they
say that the evidence shows that
the mismanagement is of a fragrant
character and that the question of the or
der's solvency includes more than merely
its inability to meet all obligations due at
the present time,
The hearing Of the case will be resumed
before Judge Taylor Wednesday.
