LONDON, Nov. 15.-Thomas Neill, other
wise Cream, who, on Dot. 21, was convict
ed of the murder OF Matilda Glover, by
administering strychnine TO her, was exe-
cuted here today. The execution was
strictly private, the only persons present
being Kynaston Metcalf, under sheriff OF
the county OF London, the executioner
and the prison officials.
Since Neill was sentenced the closest
watch had been kept upon him at New
gate prison. The sheriffs of the city or
dered the prison officials TO observe the
most stringent silence and secrecy as re-
CARDS Neill till after the execution. The
warders did not permit access TO the pris-
oner beyond the corridor which lead TO
the condemned mans cell.
Throughout, Neill's isolation had been
singularly complete. Not even his friends
visited him. He had seen no outsider
except his solicitor.
The scaffold was erected in the court
yard with an enclosure, making It inyisi-
bic from any point on surrounding build
ings. The drop was made promptly al
nine O'Clock.

NAV Como by Appeal

has gone out OF its way to commend the
zeal of this presbytery for entering upon
judicial process against one of its MEM
bers.
Dr. Smith objected to the charges on the
ground that they were not specific and
we're insufficient in legal effect. He asked
il the committee expected him to plead
guilty OF denying inspiration in the sense
in which they supposed IL to be affirmed
in the confession, when they have not de-
fined what that sense is. He objected to
having the Revs. Dawson Roberts and
Francis sit In the case, they having criti-
cised him in newspapers.
DIR. McKibben said the ministers named
had a right to sit on the case. Rev. DIR.
Dawson said he could do justice to the
Use. A motion that the objections to the
)urt be not sustained was carried by an
overwhelming majority. The presbytery
lso refused to sustain DR.. Smiths objec-
.ons to the charges.
The indications are that the presbytery
i'll find DR.. Smith guilty of the main
harges.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. - Secretary
Charles Foster said yesterday that there
was no foundation for the impression sp-
parently prevailing in certain sections OF
the country that the administration has
modified its policy restricting immigrs-
tion, as a precautiop against the introduce
tion OF cholera.
He said that sanitary experts declare
that cholera will undoubtedly reappear in
the spring and that II will be dangerous
for the federal authorities 20 relax their
vigilance in keeping out of the country
all persons or merchandise at all likely to
carry the germs of the dread contagion.
The Presidents order OF Sept. estab-
fishing 20 days quarantine against all
immigrants sailing from foreign ports TO
the United States after that date except
I'm special cases Is still in full force and
effect; and Secretary Foster said he saw
no prospect OF its modification or repeal,
In view OF the possible temperance Of
cholera in Europe.

AN INTERESTING CASE.
Trial of Three Montenegrins Charged
With Numbering n Princes SON.

VIENNA, Nov. 15.-.The trial is proceed
ing at Spalato, Dalmatia, of three Mon
tenegrins, charged with having murdered
q son of Prince Nicholas, of Montenegro
The name of the son was Gruiisa, and 1t
was brought out in court that he had
beerss continual source of trouble to the
prince.
Grujica was supported by his father in
generous way for many years, but he
became dissipated and reckless, and his
demands for money were regular and
persistent. His opportunities at length
became unbearable, and Prince Nicholas
stopped bis supplies altogether.
The young man after that made every
endeavor to annoy the prince and make
him ridiculous before the public. He
5lackmailed him and abused him openly
in the public bazaars.
Numerous family documents and satiri-
cal poems relating to the prince, written
by Grujica, were read In court In Camera.
Many sensational rumors are afloat in re-
gard to the disclosures that have been
made, or are TO be made, in connection
with the case, and the part Prince Mich
olas played therein.

place among the tombs of his ancestors at
Blenheim. Lord Randolph Churchill, the
Duke of Abercorn, brother OF Alberta, the

present. The Marchioness of Blandford,
the divorced wife of Marlborough, was
not there, the Duke OF Abercorn icing as
sumed to represent her. The Duchess of
Marlborough wore deep mourning, and
she was deeply veiled. She seemed en-
tirely overcome, and her appearance veri-
aed the statement that she had been
prostrated with grief ever since the deaf h
of the duke.
The services were those of the Church OF
England, the vicar of Woodstock ofticiat-
ing. There was a large attendance OF gem
try and tenantry from the surrounding
country, and they testified by their evil

lish Cotton District.
LONDON, Nov. 15.-The second week OF
the cotton lockout opens with increased
prospects OF the trouble being continued.
There are 5000, 900 spindles still at work
on full time; 1900 on short time and l2,-
100000 are stopped. The Masters Fedora
tion has asked the owners of the spindles
working on full time to begin to shorten
their working hours on Thursday. All
the owners have assented except the mas
ters at Bolton, who spin Egyptian cotton
chiefly. They plead that their hands afe
full OF orders and that their mills must
work full time TO fill them.
The leaders Of the spinners state that II
the employers generally adopt short time,
without corresponding reduction OF
wages, the deadlock will end. Whether
or not the manufacturers will follow such
. course, which would practically be con-
cedine the demands first made by he oper-
stives, Is an open question. n they run
their mills on short time and reduce
wages ss well, the fight will be long con-
tinued.

ANOTHER HERESEY CASE.
Trial of Dr. Henry II. smith by the
Presbytery of Cincinnati.

Presbytery of Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, o., Nov. 15.-The presby-
terry OF Cincinnati assembled in the First
Presbyterian church yesterday to proceed
with the trial for heresy OF Rev. DIR. Henry
p. Smith, professor In Hebrew In the
Lane Theological Seminary. There was a
large attendance OF Presbyterian clergy
men and laymen and representatives OF
other denominations.
DIR. Smith is charged with teaching that
the inspired author OF the Chronicles has
been guilty OF asserting sundry errors OF
historic fact that -the=aathor- -of-the
Chronicles has been guilty of suppressing
sundry historic truths owing To lnabillty
or unwillingness TO believe them; that
the inspired author OF the Chronicles in
corporated into his narrative and Endorsed
by his authority material drawn from un-
reliable sources.
The professor is also charged with teach
ing that the historical unreliability OF the
inspired author of the Chronicles extend
ed to other inspired historic writer's OF the
Old Testament. The charges are
Accompanied by Quotations
from DIR. Smiths well-known pamph-
let, "Bible Scholarship and Inspiration"
which created a sensation when it APP
peared. The prosecuting committee also
makes eighty quotations from the Bible
intended to show that 1t is inspired in
every word.
The Rev. DR.. Scott OF Lebanon acted as
moderator, and the Rev. Thomas M. Kib-
bin, ID. D., tho Rev. Thomas o. Lowe and
Elder ID. III. Shields as committee OF
prosecution.
In making his response to the charges,
Prof Smith said, among other things:
| object to the irregularity OF this action
that the committee on erroneous teaching
on whose report the action was taken was
a prejudiced and partisan committee ap-
pointed TO represent one opinion and one
only. The long discussion OF the case OF
DIR. Briggs has not always been free from
party feeling, and the completely OF the
issues involved has certainly not made it
easier to discuss dispassionately any re-
lated questions.
