CHURCH WARDEN GOES WRONG.
Discrepancies OF 81 so, 900 in His Ac.

counts-FOrgeries and Other IlIe-
galitles.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 4.-There is gen.
eral belief that William B. Robbins, attor-
ney and conveyancer of this city and late
accounting warden of st. Marks church,
is q fugitive and it is alleged that the total
sum of the discrepancies in which he is in
volved will reach $3.50, 900. In the latter
part of June the fact became public that
Mr.. Robbins as accounting warden of st.
Marks was several thousand dollars short
in his accounts. No statement has ever
divulged the exact amount of the shortage.
1t is understood that the deficit was made
good. Yesterday bills were fled in the
common pleas court in five suits to
annul certain mortgages on property
of Mrs. Mary w. Campbell, which,
It is averred in the complaint, were exc
cuted by Robbins without her knowledge
or consent. Robbins was Mrs. Csmpbell's
lawyer and held the power of attorney.
He executed mortgages on several proper
ties owned by her and converted the pro-
ceeds to his own use. In addition he held
| $33 900 Of securities, the revenues from
which he was authorized to collect. It is
alleged that he forged clause to the power
of attorney and under It unlawfully dis
| posed of Mrs. Campbells property. It was
| learned to-day that Robbins recently made
| a confession of his crookedness. He has
not been seen here for several weeks.

THE GOBLET CUP RACES

Arranged for To-day-The New York
Yacht Club Has n Stirring Race TO
Newport-They VIII go TO Vineyard
haven neutrality-suspicious. To a Part
OF the Fleet.
NEWPORT, R. l., Aug. 4.-The run from
New London to Newport to-day of the New
York Yacht club fleet turned out to be in
teresting and was the most spiriting rae
ing of the club this season. The start was
late and nobody saw a chance for decent
race save S. Nicholson Kane, the chairman
of the regatta committee. The course was
through the race, leaving Race Rock on
the port hand and the fnish at the Dump
lings in Narrsgsnsett bay. Itlooked CLASSY
just at the start, but light streaks of air
stirred the surface of the sea off Ssrsh's
ledge from about outh-southeast and the
yachts drifted dresrily about The line.
The finish was very interesting. As the
yachts drew down Point Judith they low
cred their spinnaker beoms and set spin
makers in the following order: Quickstep,
Gloriana, Wasp and Lssca. The Wasp
was first of the sloops, with Quickstep
away ahead of her, and the Lssca was the
next schooner, just ahead of the Gloriana.
On the run from Point Judith to Dump
lings Lssca ran very fast and passed
Quickstep and Wasp, blsnketing the
schooner in great shape. The winners in
their classes are: Constellation, Lasca,
Iroquois, Quickstep. Huron, Clara, Glori-
ana by eight seconds over Wasp,
and Mariquita. At the fleet meet
ing held aboard the Electra to-
night 1t was decided to run to Vineyard
Haven Saturday, if Goelet cup races
should take place tomorrow; IL not the
boats will race for the Goelet cups Satur-
day, lay here Sunday, run to Vineyard
Haven Monday and to Msrblehead Tues
day. This vote was unanimous. If the
Goelet races are decided tomorrow the
yachts will run to Vineyard Haven
Saturday, lay there over Sunday,
run to Msrblehead Monday, racing
for valuable cups offered by ]. Pierrepont
Morgan, and when they arrive there,
if they ever round Cape Cod, they
will race for valuable cups donated by
Commodore Gerry. The Pierrepont, Nor
gan and Gerry cups will be one each for
schooners and sloops. The regatta com
mittee, of course, have a guiding control
of these matters and later fleet meeting
may decide differently.
Near the finish to-day the schooner Con-
stellation ran into the schooner Idlewild
and split the lstter's mainsail. knocking
down the owner, c. Cooper CLARK, and cut
ting his head badly. The Sayonara also
carried away her jibtopsail.

PLAINVILLE CAMP MEETING.

Pleasures of a Sojourn In the Woods
-Twenty-one Cottages Already Oc-
eupied-Several New Ones Built
Since Last Year-The Public Meet
tngs open Sunday.
PLAINvILLE CAMP GROUNDS, Aug. A.
Although the Methodist camp meeting
does not according to the official program
begin until the 9Th inst, the pleasure of a
sojourn in the woods has such charm to
city and townspeople that a number of
those who intend to spend the week of
camp meeting at this place come out here
a week or two in advance, fit up their
pleasant cottages and tents and enjoy the
smell of the woods, hear the songs of the
wild birds, take along their chosen books
and greet the later arrivals
The camp ground is laid out very much
like spider web, with the preachers
stand and place of general meeting in the
center, with circular streets around 1t and
avenues rsdisting from the center like
spokes to wheel ,on which are located the
cottages and tents.
Quite number of cottages have been
erected during the last year and some of
the old ones have been enlarged.
To-day twenty-one cottages and tents
are occupied and about fifteen more will
be occupied tomorrow.
The rain poured last night from o'clock
until morning, but produced very little dis
comfort
No public meetings have been held yet
and probably will not be until next Sun
day. W. F. D.

CONSUL RYDER,S CASE.
Charges Thought to be Greatly Ex-
aggerated.

Charges Thought to be Greatly Ex-
aggerated.
WASHINGTON, Aug. At was stated to-
day at the state department that the tele-
grams from Europe in connection with the
arrest of Consul Ryder at Copenhagen are
in many respects incorrect. The Ameri
can minister, Mr.. Carr, has never reported
to the department that Mr.. Ryder was
guilty of the charges, nor has he ever
recommended his recall. He did not re-
port that the Danish government had
made an exparte investigation of the
charges, and had suggested that if the
United States government desired to trans
fer Mr.. Ryder to some other post, the prose-
cution would not be instituted in the
courts. The state department replied that
the consul should he submitted to a
legal trial and abide by the judgment of
the court. It is stated that the charges
against Mr.. Ryder have been greatly ex-
aggerated in the European press, and some
of them are known by the department to
be unfounded. Mr.. Ryder has been for
many years in the consular service. He
was gallant soldier aud is suffering from
a wound received in the civil war.

An Expedition Now Under Way
Annexation With the United
States.
CHICAGO, Aug. f. Information was re-
ceived to-day by members of the Cuban
club that another blow was about to be
struck for the freedom of Cuba. On July
%, it is said, vessel bound for Cuba sail
ed from the vicinity of Key West, carrying
large number of men well drilled and
equipped. A large supply of ammunition
was also carried. The expedition is under
the command of General Charles Rolloff,
Pole, who rendered brilliant services to
the Cuban revolution in 1868.
HA vANA, Aug. 4.-The secret sentiment
in favor of annexation of Cuba to the
United States, long cherished by many
Cubans, now begins to make itself heard
in the face of threatened expedition from
Key West. A prominent Cuban says
Cuba's only hope is in annexation. He
thinks the Cubans are unfit for self gov
eminent, and that a revolutionary eIpedi-
ton would result in useless bloodshed and
misery.

Bags OF Coin Taken-Daring Robbery
The Express Car Smashed by Dy.
Mantle Cartridges.
FRESNO, Cal, Aug. 2.-The train which
was held up by masked robbers between
Rolinda and Pratton late last night was the
southbound night express leaving San
Francisco at $50 p. m. The sum contain
ed in the messengers safe Is thought to
have been between $4,000 and $4,000
Several deputy shsriffs from southern
counties of the state are stated to have
been on board the train, but no resistance
was offered to the robbers.
Two robbers boarded the tender as the
train pulled out of Coils, about fifteen
miles west Of Fresno, they covering the
shotguns and commanding that orders be
obeyed under penalty of death. When
the train passed Rollinds station the
engineer was ordered to stop. The
fireman was ordered to touch off
with lighted cigar the fuse
of q dynamite cartridge which the robbers
placed on the piston rod of the left side of
the locomotive. The explosion was ter
rife, breaking the piston rod and partially
disabling the engine. The robbers ordered
the engineer to get off the train and walk
a short distance along the track while they
proceeded to lombard the doors of the eI-
press car by exploding dynamite cart
ridges, about eight in all, which tore down
the doors into splinters and smashed the
floor of the car. The robbers, masked
and completely disguised, entered the ex-
press car and covering Louis Roberts, the
messenger, with double-bsrrelled shotguns,
ordered him to open the Wells, Fargo &
Co.'s safe. Roberts set about do
ing this, but was so excited
and nervous that he forgot
the combination, and 30 informed his cap
tors, who thereupon struck him a heavy
blow on the head with q gun and threat
ened to kill him If he did not Immediately
open the safe. With trembling hands he
did SO, and they took out the sacks of coin.
When the deaperadoes exploded the first
cartridge on the engine the passengers put
their heads out of the windows to see what
was going on, but they drew them back
as ain when they found pistol bullets and
buckshot whistling past their ears.
A panic ensued, the passengers making
wild scramble under the seats to keep out
of range of the flying missiles. The ex-
press car was shattered into atoms by the
conclusion. After the highwaymen had
made their escape into the darkness the
engineer sent a short dispatch to the depot
in this city announcing the train had been
held up, and the train proceeded slowly on
the way, arriving here an hour and twenty
minutes late. The time occupied in blow
ing open the car aad securing the treasure
was not more than twenty five or thir-
ty minutes. A large crowd was at the
depot waiting the arrival of the train. Al
though only two men appeared to do the
principal part of the work 1t is believed
there were several confederstes, as several
buckshots were found imbedded in the
rear of the passenger coach.
