dition of one of the great markets of the
financial world. They declare it an enigma.

decreased and prices declined, the offerings
TO the United States treasury have steadily
grown lass and the price gone down to .S345
per ounce, instead OF increasing.
Sub Treasurer Roberts said today: 1.-THE
course of a bullion market is mystery to
every body. Nobody that | have talked

mystery in fact, as the reports from the
west are that some Of the mines are stop

are being energetically asked in Home

than likely that other leaders will take the

IA viewed from Homestead, Ross is in q
strnure position. If he does not appear to
make good his case before the grand Jury,
il will be said that he has run away. Ii he
does show up he will be promptly led

that he has jumped his bail, but say he is

Two Elem6nts OF the congregational Board

CHICAGO, Oct. 5.-The American board
OF commissioners for foreign missions of
the general Congregational missionary
body, resssembled this morning. This
board is self-constituting, self-perpetuat-
ing, and at present 1t is composed Of two
elements, liberal and conservative These
have many points of difference. One Of
these differences having to do with the
body itself came up this morning. The lib
erals believe that the churches which fur
nish all the funds should have the repre-
sentation. This matter came up in paper
by DIR. E. X. Alden defending the conser-
vative policy II was moved that me pap r
be referred TO special committee to report
next year. On behalf OF the liberals a
substitute was prepared to refer to the
business committee with instructions TO
report at this session. The conservatives
carried the day, defeating the substitute
by vote OF 20 to ~. The conservatives
finally consented 10 q reference to tue COM
nittee to report as soon IS possible. The
conservatives have the appointment OF the

As the committees were not ready to re-

be invited to address the convention.
There was great round OF applause as MIR.
Roberts came to the stand. For thirty five
minutes he held the audience enthralled by
his bursts of fiery eloquence. His address
deserves a permanent place in current
Democratic literature, and 1t is
matter of regret that it can
not be given IN full at this
time. 1t was devoted first to q refutaiion
of the charge that man because be was a
Mormon was not free to be Democra. or
Republican as ne chose. To ridiculing the
statement that the high church officials
would be found secretly working for the
Republican party, after their open declara-
lions that the church was not in politics.

tried to use the names of the church au-

the growth of the idea of protection, and
said the tyranny of King John, the forced
loans of the Stuarts and the exactions of
George Ill. upon the American colonies
had beer succeeded by the Repu blican
party Of today. He punctured the Repub-
lican theory of protection, and ably hand
led the steel rail question and the profits
made by Carnegie out of high tariff MIR.
Roberts was thunderously sppiauded time
after lime and he eloquentiy closed by
promising the party that II wise

generous to his enemies he would be
