day and Sunday, until completed.
DIR. Hall raised the question as TO
whether the hearing should be public.
He favored having closed doors, and
wanted all reports given to the press
formulated in the session and sent out.
DIR. Briggs replied that he favored open
doors. 1t was decided that the public

previously done the gallery would be
cleared.
The General Assembly which met in
Portland, Oregon, last May, refused to
accept the Presbytery's dismissal OF the
charges against Professor Briggs, and
ordered the Presbytery to proceed with
the trial. At the June meeting the
Presbytery acknowledged the re-
ceipt of the order and said
that ii would be carried out
in the fall. But little has been
heard Of the controversy during the
summer for the principal actors in 1t

Briggs has spent most of his time at

The Presbytery dismissed the charges
of heresy against Prof. Briggs last fall
on the ground that the charges and

and legal effect.

Homestead, Pa, Oct. 3.-MondaS
morning opens much the same as the
week before except that two deseltions
arc reported from tho strikers ranks.
The search for tho remaining twenty
eight Homcsteaders who are accused Of
treason was kept up all night and this
morning, but not one arrest IS re-
corded in the borough, and the police
are inclined to think that they haYe
left this part OF the country.
Friends OF the accused say that they
will surrender when their lawyers adj
wise, and proIers of bail are plentiful
from Pittsburgh merchants. A rumor
is prevalent here that tho advisory com.
mittee rs an organization is disrupted
directory, aud that while few
men are nominaiiy directors no
formal meetings OF the board have
been held, and ii there were any con-
claves they were conducted with strict
secresy. The reason given is that the
constant prosecution OF members OF
that executive body of the strikers
deters others from accepting places on
the committee. though they may be
willing to work hard for the success OF
the men.
The return OF the imprisoned men
this evening was the cause for much
rejoicing in Homestead. The accused
we're given an ovation in sense, that
is, everywhere they went crowds gath
cred to cheer them, and to show that
nothing for months has so aroused the
people here as the treason suits.
A few members Of the old advisory
board and other leaders met in secret
session tonight, and it is proba-
BILE that as a result the Anal
gamated Association will scatter
broadcast circulars detailing the
treason suits, and urging working
men 10 rally to the support Of the
locked.out men with financial aid. The
men feel that they have strong ground
for an appeal to the country, and they
propose to make the most Of it.

ment Of some length. A frm belief

lutely necessary to the continued pros
perity OF the country. The cost OF the
necessities of life should be reduced.
The principles embodied in the force
bill were believed to be fraught with
the greatest danger to the nation. It
would have degrading tendency.
David Martin and NJ. S. Quay, with
their methods, were roundly denounced.
The federal administration OF Benja-
min Harrison was also denounced,
while contrasted with it was the record
presented by the safe and honorable adj
ministration OF Grover Cleveland,
David L. Hill and Roswell ?. Flower.

vontion were endorsed.

imously elected president OF the league.

dents, secretaries, treasurers, an execu-
tive committee, and delegates-at.large,

KIyewoou, W. Va, Oct. 3,-As the
Hon. James c. DIcGrew stated in his
remarks to-day in introducing tho Hon.
Victor 3. Dolliver, "this is the largest
political gathering I ever saw in this
county" Between 1000 and $500 peo-
pie came here to-day to the big Repub-
lean rally. It seemed to be general
holidaythroughout the county. People
began pouring in ut eight o'clock this
morning and at noon the streets and
court house square were mass OF Pres
tonians.
At eleven o'clock an effort was made
to get the crowd into procession, but
there wasn't room enough in our town,
although one Of the largest political
PROFESSIONS was formed and headed by
our band and drum corps. 1t marched
through the streets making a brilliant
display. In 1875 tho people OF this
county had county Fourth oil July
celebration. 1t has always been credit
ed as the largest gathering our people
ever had. The meeting to-day, SO gray
headed men tell me, reminded the
people Of their centennial celebration,
Fully two hundred young men-frst
voters-were in the procession and they
were the majority OF our uniformed
marching club.
The men who had the meeting in
charge soon found out that the large
court room would not hold handful OF
the crowd, and tho meeting was held in
court house square, where decorated
platform was erected.
The speaker was the Hon. Nictc- B.
Dolliver, and the fact that this place
was his birthplace he made the effort
OF this campaign. His speech was on
national issues, and he addressed the
immense crowd for over two hours with
one OF the best arguments our people
ever listened to. He touched upon
every national issue in this campaign
and discussed them to the entire salts
faction of the Republicans and the dis
satisfaction Of the Democrats present.
The crowd was sorry when he closed,
and he received the hearty congratula-
tions and thanks for the information he
had given them.
The Hon. James c.. McGrew was tho
chairman of the meeting and presided
with honor TO tho meeting.
Several representative Republicans
are going to make an effort to get Mr..
Dolliver TO speak in their communities.

ERIE, Pa, Oct S.-Tremendous exc
element was caused in Erie to-day by
daring attempt to rob the Keystone
national bank.
1t was about 1890 o'clock this alter
noon, and no customers were in the
bank. Assistant cashier Frank Kepler
and clerk Charles Biebel were busy bal
ancing their books and counting money
and checks when suddenly a qunriette
of tough looking strangers burst into
the room, rovolvors in hand. The
strangers took positions at each of the
windows around the desks within, and
pointing their revolvers at the two
clerks told them to throw up their
hands.
Instead OF doingas directed tho cashier
snatched up a paper weight and was
about dealing the fellow nearest him q
blow on the head, when two shots were
fired by the intruders. One Of the bull
lets struck Kepler in the left cheek, in
lllCtAuk u bAh 4Cs
wound. The young man fell fainting to
the floor, and the robbers becoming
frightened ran from the bank and fled
up Eighth street. The shooting had
attracted crowd, and u number OF
citizens gave chase. The robbers find
ing the pursuit too hot, turned on their
pursuers and opened fire, but fortunate
" no ono was injured.
Finally Special 0fIicer William Doeh-
rel overlook the desperadoes and with
a drawn revolver commanded them to
surrender. The answer was a shot
from huge army revolver. AS Officer
Doehrel was in the act Of returning the
fire the four men thought better OF it
and gave themselves up. They were
haudcuaed together and marched to
the police station and locked up in sep
arate cells. On being searched, nine re.
volvers of different calibre and collec-
ton of knives and brass KNOCKERS were
found on them.
The prisoners gave their names as
John Courtney and Q. II. Hawley, OF
New York City; Dan p. Evans and
Charles W. Smith, of Syracuse.

In London-The Depression is Great and
only Royalty Can Relieve 1t.
LONDON, Oct. 3.-Rumors have been
in circulation for several days past that
q large drapery house in the West End
Of London is hopelessly involved. Com
menting upon these rumors to-day the
81. James Gazette says that several great
drapery firms are tottering under the
severe general depression which has al
fected all ranks OF society. This depres.
sion was badly felt last Christmas time,
when some OF the largest drapery shops
in the west end did not for DAYS receive
asingle customer. Many firms in des.
pair dismantled their windows and
packed their fabric goods away with a
view to holding them over until next
December
Tho brother Of the Duke OF Clarence
and Avoudale and Princess May created
a demand for new style OF goods
which were no sooner produced than
all demand for them was blasted by the
death OF the duke, and the dealers were
left with thousands OF miles of tlnery
on their hands. The absence OF q long
season added to the troubles. The
greater houses found it necessary to ex-
tend tho credits Of the smaller dealers
in order to prevent them from becom-
ing bankrupt. This extension ofcredit
was overdonc, and unless trade revives
by Christmas collapse will be newt
able. If one big house goes it will take
others with it.
1t is to be hoped that royalty will set
the ball OF prosperity rolling. An an
nouncement that the Duke Of York was
about to marry would have O magical
effect upon trade.

Cooley and Mncvoagh May BaoksiIde, but
tho Cause Coos Marching On.
New York, Oct. 3.-1he Times says:
Statements we're made in political cir
cles last night with reference to the de-
sertion from the Republicans OF men Of
national prominence, which. caused
something OF sensation wherever they
were heard.
Wayne Macvcagh, who was United
States attorney general under Garfield,
and ex-Judge Thomas NJ. Cooley, OF
Michigan, formerly chairman OF the
interstate commerce commission, are
the men who were said to have decided
to give their support to the Democratic
candidates, and their Endorsement to
Democratic issues as defined in this
campaign.
There was reliable authority for the
statement that each Of these men would
soon make public letters in which, over
their own signatures, they would set
forth tho reasons which had led to
their change OF heart. Few particulars
as TO the letters were given. Mr.. Mac
Veagh, it is understood, would write at
considerable length and discuss the
tariff and other issues as laid down by
the two party platforms while stating
in frank terms why he could not sup
port Mr.. Harrison.
Such Republicans as know OF this
proposed action on the part OF the men
named have kept very still about it. It
is not certain that Chairman Carter and
others OF tho Republican national com.
mittee have heard Of it, but some OF
President Harrison's advisers in other
cities were said to have been informed
OF the forthcoming letters, and thenews
was naturally displeasing to them.

New York, Oct. 3.-The story tele-
graphed from Denver, COL, that John
Reese, wealthy resident OF that place,
had been robbed and murdered in this
city, and that his body was discovered
here by hia son, was pronounced un-
true by the police authorities, AT the
time his son was here a thorough
search was made for the missing man
but nothing came OF it, The sou
searched all the public institutions and
went to the morgue without finding any
trace of his father. 1t is thought
Reese went to Europe on steamer
other than the one he had purchased a
ticket for.
