A PREACHER ON THE STUMP.
a Prominent Episcopalian Comes Out
for Cleveland.


NEW YORK, Dot. .17.-Rev. George Rains
ford Of st. Georges Episcopal church has
sprung a surprise on his parishioners by de-
claring that he will take the stump in sup
port OF the democratic national ticket, Al
though denominations engaging actively in
politics through some of their ministers has
been frequent occurrence ,it has never been
with the Episcopalians. 1t is against ali the
traditions and precedents of the church,
and while there are isolated cases in local
politics, where the question OF the morals OF
community have been involved, In which
kpiscopalian clergymen have taken part,
DR.. Rainsford is said Co be the first clergy
man of that denomination who has taken
the stump in a national election In the hiss
tory OF that church in this country. Dis
patches from Ridgeheld, Conn.,, stating that
DR.. Rainsford had addressed a large dem
ocratio meeting at that point on Saturday
night created great surprise among
the Episcopal members Of that city
and caused great rejoicing among demo-
cratic politicians. Dispatches quote DIR.
Rainsford in giving his reasons for support
ing the democratic ticket as follows: "a
tariff to foster special industries Is wrong,
and 1t needs large fortunes which furnish
funds that can be used In bribery TO con-
tinue its existence. There are thousands of
honest republicans, but there are thousands
OF immigrants, ignorant Of any suffrage,
and, alas. many venal Americans, and large
campaign funds furnish temptation to
brlbe. which is immoral, and /, as
clergyman, must protest against any
system that can build up a corruption fund.
also admire the democratic candidate.
know personally that he gives no opinion
until he studies a question thoroughly, and
then he speaks fully and truly. The woods
are full OF public men. but we need true
men as leaders, and the country demands
Mr.. Cleveland as a leader in this educa-
tional campaign
DR.. Rainsford's congregation Is one Of the
largest in New York. He has al ways been
prominent in doing everything in his power
for the alleviating Of lsboring men, and his
interest with the laboring CLASSES in and ou t
of his church is very great. The democrats
believe that his support OF Mr.. Cleveland
aud tariff reform will influence thousands
Of votes among the laborers.

Roughs at Wyandotte Attack Them
With Bricks and Clubs.
WYANDorTE, MICH, Oct. 17.-In a free
fight here last evening between a Salvation
Army detachment and a gang OF roughs,
FIVE persons we're seriously injured, one o
them fatally. For long time there has
been ill feeling between the rough element
and the salvationists. AS the army was
marching along, with its band playing and
banners waving, some one threw brick at
Lieut.. Lowe, telling him. This was the sig
nal flor general attack, and bricks, stones,
clubs and knives were freely used on the
panic-stricken army. The latter made nc
attempt at defense, but scattered as fast as
possible. No arrests have been made.

The Men Gradually Returning 60 Their
Places in the Mills
HOMESTEAD, PA, Oct. 1.-THE largest
number of Homesteaders returned to work
to-day at the company's terms which has
yet appeared in the same length of time
These men were all given employment and
intimation was given out at the steel works
Office that many other local steel workers
would be taken back when they ap.
Piled. The report OF many desertions
caused much comment in the bor-
ough, and coming so Immediately after
the declaration of the local newspaper that
the strike is about lost is looked upon by
many as a veriflcation Of that statement. 1t
is reported, further, that the steel workers
who live up Munhall hollow and at Gehr-
ingtown are organizing to return to work
in body. The firm evidently believes that
the strike is on its last legs, aud that within
q week a majority of the men will have re-
turned to work. The advisory committee
however, still insists that the strikers are
firm and that the desertions will have no
effect on the men still out.

A HARD BLOW AT READING.
Indications That a Receiver VIII Be
Appointed in New Jersey

appointed IN new Jersey.
New YORK, Oct. 17.--Attorney General
John P. Stockton OF New Jersey struck q
hard blow to-day at the Reading coal COM
bination. With ex-Judge Frederick w.
Stevens, who has been associated with him
in the case in behalf OF the state, he ap-
peared in the chanoellor's chambers In Jer-
sey City and asked that a receiver be ap-
pointed to take charge of tho New Jersey
Central railroad, Easton and Amboy
railroad and Delaware and Bound Brook
Railroad Company to enforce the chancsl-
lor's injunction against all the railroads
in the coal combination in New Jersey. Two
informations were filed. The chancellor
granted without hesitation the prayers In
both and made the rules returuable on Oct.
"a. The promptness with which the prayers
were granted is to lawyers familiar with
court procedure almost positive indlca-
tion that a receiver will be appointed, par
ticularly as the attorney general has fled
with bis papers a mass Of evidence sho wing
that the temporary and permanent orders
OF the court forbidding an increase In the
price of coal have been ignored and violated.

your excellency's very polite letter, which

forwarded by me to the holy father without
delay. His holiness has learned how great was
the qualification felt by the President OF this
great republic at the prospect of receiving the
columbus records, which will be sent by the
holy see 30 the exposition which is to be held
next year in honor of the immortal discoverel
OF America. The august pontiff felt certain
that the I nited States government would spare
no pains to preserve the precious objects that
are TO be intrusted to 1t, from any mishap, and
ne returns his thanks for the kind offer that has
been made for their transportation and for free
passage Of the person who is to have charge OF
them. In the meantime his holiness who has
SO many reasons TO entertain special regard for
the United States government on account of
tne liberty which is enjoyed in said states by
the Catholic church, and who Justly admires
the enterprise and progress OF that country
has decided to be represented at the public
demonstrations which are to be held there In
nohor OIL denOas nero on the fourth cen
tenary of his memorable discovery by a
person who is no less distinguished
by his personal qualities than by his
grade in the ecclesiastical hierar chy. This
person is Mgr. francesca Satolli, archbishop of
Lepanto, prelate who is as highly esteemed
on account Of his virtues as for his profound
scholarship, of which he has given many evil
dences in his writings. His holiness does not
doubt that this decision Of his will be received
with pleasure by the government and feels as
sured that your excelency will welcome the
prelate with your accustomed courtesy.
Sharing these sentiments with the holy
father, l gladly avail myself of the present
occasion to convey TO you assurance of the very
distinguished consideration with which / am
your excellency's most faithful servant.
