Reports Presented by the Officers of the
observation-disclosures TO Other Great
Religious Gatherings.
TORONTO, ONT, September Cdr.
Munro Gibson, of London, England,
conducted the opening devotional exer-
cises at this mornings session OF the
Pan Presbyterian Council, in Cooks
Church.
DR.. Matthews. permanent secretary
to the Alliance, presented report OF
statistics. In laying the report before
the conference, the Doctor referred to
the great Importance Of the gathering,
which, he said, was far greater than
that Of the historic counsels oil
Nice and bort, or the famous gathering
at Westminster which formulated the
confession and catechism. This counsel
had 2O,OOO,OO0 Christians at It's back.
It's members came from every quarter
of the habitable globe; its deliberations
were watched with interest in every
country, and before night the words ut
tered that morning would be flashed to
the end of the earth.
Turning 10 the contents OF the report
DR.. Matthews pointed out that the sta
tistics showed a general increase in
membership all along the line with a
total of ABOUT quarter OF million In
crease Of adults aud corresponding In
crease in the Sabbath schools. To the
report was appended a brief account OF
the nature of the church government In
different parts of Continental Europe
and the relation OF the church aud
State. The report was adopted amid
loud applause.
DR.. Kerr, of Glasgow, gave notice OF
resolution strongly approving the
action of the United States Congress In
deciding TO close the Chicago EXPOSE
zion on Sunday, and earnestly hoped 1t
would not alter that decision. DR..
Thomas Lindsay, of Glasgow then read
a paper on protestant Reformation,
its Spiritual Character and its Fruits
in the Individual Life"
The paper was listened to with much
attention and was frequently applauded.
1t was followed by brief discussion.

THE Pittsburg Dispatch has, as usual,
dropped its independence since the
opening of the campaign, and is now as
rank and Unfair a Harrisonian organ as
any in the land. This is trick the
Dispatch has. When there is no cam
paign on and no votes to gain, the Dis
patch is one Of the most non-partisan
papers in the land. But after it has
roped In lot Of independent and DEM
oeratic subscribers it fills them up with
Republican campaign falsehoods when
the election comes around. Those faS-
tidious folks who think they must have
a Pittsburg paper and take the Dispatch
should change to the Post which,
though it does not profess to be any
thing but DeRAyatic, still is an honest
journal and good a newspaper as
there is in PifHburg.

COUNCIL meets next Tuesday evening.
1t will be the duty of that body to
promptly pass special ordinance grant
ing pay to the Board OF Equalization
and Appeals for whatever time it may
be necessary to continue its sessions
after the ten days limit, providing,
however, that the extension does not
exceed, say, thirty days, assuming, OF
course, that the Board cannot pos
sibly finish its work within ten days,
which it cannot, in view of the fact that
so many petitions are before it. Both
Council and the Board should keep in
mind that a thorough, patient consider
alton should be given every petition.
The Board of Equalization and APP
peals is appointed expressly for the
purpose of correcting mistakes and
eoualtzing values. 1t is composed OF
representative citizens, and beyond
doubt they will extend impartial justice
under the law to all who consider them
selves aggrieved.

RoMEsrEADERs ALARMED.
They Had Not Given the Charges Against
ANY Serious thought, But Now 1t Is DIFF


HOMESTEAD, PA, September o.
The action Of the grand jury in re-
turning true bills In 100 Homestead
CAGES has caused a very profound sem
sation here, not unmixed with some
apprehension. 1t was never for a
moment thought that all Of the charges
would be sustained by the grand jury,
and now that all have been, specula-
ton as to the possibility Of conviction
is engrossing many minds.
Up to this time the Homesteaders paid
little attention to the suits and practi-
cally none to their defense, but the
grand jury having brought before them
the gravity of their position, there is a
lively hustle TO prove alibis and estab-
lish other sufficient grounds for defense,
which will interpoSe between the de-
PENDANTS and the panitentary.
The Advisory Board has not been dis
solved in consequence of the conspiracy
suits, and in fact several new members
were added this morning. The men,
berS of the Board are confident that
under the act Of 1891 theirs is legal
organization, and from Judge Porter's
remark in the O'Donnell hearing, they
look forward to non-sults.

JEFFERSON COUNTY CAMPAIGN.
A Big Meeting at Charles Town Under the
Auspices of the Cleveland and Wilson


Auspices of the Cleveland and Wilson
Club
SPECIAL Telegram to the Register.
CHATLEs TowN, w. Va, September %.
The Democratic campaign for Jeffer-
son county was opened this evening by
an enthusiastic meeting Of Democrats
in the Court House. The Cleveland
and Wilson club, numbering four hun
dred, turned out in force, and In addi-
ton there wigs large crowd OF
citizens and many ladies'. In front
Of the Court House the club had
provided large stand for The
band and..ssreception committee. The
speakers were the Hon. Jas. M. Beck,
of Philadelphia, law partner of Chair
man Harrity, of the National Democrat
ic Committee, and Hon. Stuart w.
Walker, Of Martinsburg, distric t NOM
inee for the House Of Delegates, who
were met by the band and a committee
and escorted from Warmley's Hotel to
the Court House, where the crowd re-
ceived them with cheers.
Mr.. Forrest w. Brown, in brief and
we'll chosen remarks, introduced the
speakers. Mr.. Beck Is al able speaker.
He discussed the Republican and Dem
ocratic platforms, the force bill, and
protection and reciprocity.
Mr.. Walker followed Mr.. Beck in an
able presentation of the principles OF
the Democratic party and the urgent
necessity, in view of the small margin
of votes in this State between the two
parties, of harmony and organization in
the Democratic fore es.
Congressman VIM. L. Wilson was
present at the meeting, but did not In
tend to make a speech, but upon the
repeated calls of the audience arose and
delivered one of his characteristic elo-
quent speeches on the tariff and the
issues of the campaign.
All the speakers were loudly cheered
and the meeting shows that the euthu-
siasm of the Democrats OF Jefferson
county is thoroughly aroused to the
importance of success in the coming
campaign.

AN IMPORTANT ORDER

The War Department. Orders the Govern
ment Property at Fortress Monroe Va
Gated at Once-It VIII Cost Millions to
Comply.
RICHMOND, VA, September ga
special from Fortress Monroe, Va,
says: The citizens residing on the gov
eminent reservation at Fortress Monroe,
Va, have been thrown into state OF
great excitement owing to the receipt
OF general order signed by the Secre-
tary OF War, peremptorily ordering
that every house, including the Hygeia
and Chamberlan's new hotel, be vacated
within fifteen days from the time OF Is
suing the order, which is dated Sept IA,
1892, and further ordering the removal
and tearing down Of all buildings at the
owners expense. The actof Congress
dated March, 1868, gives the Secretary
full power in this matter, and the order
is issued, 1t Is understood, because or
the failure Of citizens having residences
and hotels on the retervation TO comply
with the request from the engineers
department that plans and specifications
for a proper sewerage In the citizens
quarters at the Fort be handed into
the department, but this is due
to the unsettled condition of
the Hotel Chamberlain, which is in
cluded in this order. There is from
four to five million dollars worth of
property on the spot, with great in
terests held by railroads and other
transportation companies, and there is
no doubt that strong pressure will be
brought upon the secretary to have
him modify his order, which II carried
out will be very disastrous TO the whole
vicinity, including Norfolk, Hampton,
Newport News, etc.

OUR handsome Republican brother at
the helm Of the opposition paper appears
to have reliuquished his grasp upon the
Iltelligeneer columns for the time being,
and to have taken the stump for the
Republican party in the advocacy Of
certain matters very remote from the
issues al stake. In his speech at the
North Wheeling Republican clubhouse
Mr.. HART, for want Of more pertinent
material, had the audacity to drag into
the campaign the work of the
City Assessors, a subject so ir-
relevant to the issues of the
Presidential and State campaign
ssto occasion look of disdain on the
faces OF many Of his auditors. As a
matter Of fact the County and State
valuations are less this year than
last, while the city tax levy, which, by
the way, IS based on an assessment al
ways higher than the COunty's, is money
that Is spent right here among our
selves, and has no connection with
the county and State whatever. 1t was
certainly as small piece Of insidious
campaign material as we have encoun-
tered.
