THE KEARsAGE MISSING.
Nothing Heard ut tho Navy Departmen
of Her and the Nantucket.

Nothing Heard ut tho Navy Department
of Her and the Nantucket
WASHINGTON, Aug S0.-No information
has been received at the Navy Department
regarding the United States steamship
Kearsarge with Monitor, Nantucket, in
tow, which left New York few days ago,
bound for Wilmington, N. G.
Department officers say there is less
cause for alarm now in view of the an
nouncement from the weather bureau
that the recent storm between the points
named was more on land than at sea.
The Nantucket has a full complement
of officers and men abroad and is fully
equipped for sea.
If the storm broke upon them the Kear-
sarge would have probably cast off her
tow line, and allowed the Nantucket to
heave to and ride out of the storm.
Under the circumstances it isimpossible
for the department to hear anything from
either ship until they come nearer to
land.
1t is expected that something will be
heard from them today or tomorrow.

CHINESE EXCLUSION.
Missionaries Think It Hurtful to the
Cause of Christianity.

Missionaries Think It Hurtful to the
Cause of Christianity.
NEW YORK. Aug. 80; 1893. The Presby-
terian Board of Foreign Missions re-
ceived today copy of the report Of a
committee, appointed by the recent Synod
of China, to draft resolutions concerning
the effect of the Chinese Exclusion law
upon the cause of Christianity 10 the EN-
pire. This report is the first official ac-
lion taken by any religious body III CHINA
upon that subject siucs the act was de-
cIared constitutional by the Supreme
Court of the United States. Following is
the text of the document;-
The Synod of China, representing immedi-
ately five Presbyteries. with nearly 6,000 native
Christians scattered from Peking to Cam
China, desires to record its dissatisfaction with
the act of Congress in regard 70 the Chinese Ia
America.
II the American people desire to restrict i'm
migration of the Chinese We belieye they could
have readily effected their purpose by dipio-
matte negotiations and mutual concessions,
monious relations which for many years exist
ed, and should exist between the United States
and China.
tioD, we have grave reasons to fear, not only
that the Chinese In America may be embittered
against tue reiigion of the land, but that Amer
lean MISSIONARIES may Dc greAtly emoarI rIass oo
In the propagation OF their faith in China.
especially as many there are already preJudiced
against Christianity and Western civilization.
We had hoped that the courts could decide
that the offensive clauses of the law should not
be enforced, but in this we were disap pointed
We therefore ask the Christian people OF
America, OF our own and all other churches,
that our voice may reach to exert themselves
to reverse il-considered and unfriendly legis-
lation, and to cultivate kindly spirit to those
of our people now among them, making it
easier for them to consider the claims OF
Christianity and also removing q serious OBJ
stacle to the successful propagation of the gos-
pei by American missionaries In our empire.
We cannot belive that American Christians
can be indifferent to the attitude OF this popu-
lous nation towards their holy religion. Our
only fla is tha a want of concert may cause
them to all of that influence in the council of
their country which their number and charac-
ter entitle them to- and that thus the real pr O.
test of their hearts against the injury Of whi ct
wa comnlain may be inefiactiYe.

Five years ago he married Miss Fried

leading country lawyer. He has stelV
been prosecuting his wife. and the decla-
ration that she had prepared TO secure u

OF the terrible tragedy last night.

the three year old boy baby aud talking
to her sisters. Friediauder entered the
apartment from the back room, drew hts

GLADSTONE'S LAST WORD.
Brilliant Speech in the Final Home
Rule Debate.

LONDON, Aug. 80, 1898 3-The last stage
OF the Home Rale Bill debate ia the
House of Commons began today. AS
usual on Wednesday. the House met at
noon. The Exceptionally large attendance
showed that the majority OF the members
who went to the country for their no II
days recently, had returned to hear the
final speeches OF the party leaders and to
take part In the final division on next
Friday night Oh the Irish benches
hardly a seat was vacant. The Liberals
and Radicals were present. almost to
man.
AL the party leaders were cheered as
they entered. but no great enthusiasm
was shown until Mr.. Giadstone and John
Morley came In together. Then the
Irish members rose cheering. the Liberals
and Radicals joined them. and for nearly
two minutes the House rang with shouts
for the two men who had done rost TO
render possible the advnncement OF the
Home Rule bill to the third reading.
Before Mr.. Gladstone rose to move the
third reading few amendments were
added TO the bill at the instance OF Mr..
Morley. Chief Secretary for Ireland.
After they had been disposed of without
de bate Mr. Glads tone rose amid storm
OF cheers He began his speech with
references to the criticisms made by
Unionist leaders on the historical pre-
cedenrs he had cited on for ner occasions
for Home Rule in Ireland. The opposi-
ton. he said. had contended tnat Ia no
other countries could auaiogss be found
for changing the Union between Great
Britain and Ireland.
Their contention could not be support
ed by historical facts. In Austria
Hungary, iu Norway and Sweden. in tue
United States ana In the British Colonies
were to be found the abundant proofs
that 1t was altogether desirable to seDa-
rate local from i'm ,erial affairs. Through
out European and American literature tt
was not possible TO find writer emitted
to consideration who approved of the
conduct of England toward Ireland or
attempted to apologize for the grievous
and shameful history which, since the

RAVINE ROAD Sewer
Mayor Pagan Thinks 1t
Time Jersey City Should
Move in the Matt eT.

The following letter. whi ch was sem
by Mayor Pagan OF Hoboken to Corpor
alton Counsel Edwards of Jersey City, at
noon today. explains ITSELF
" Wiiham D. EdUards Esq Corporation coas-
sel, JeTseg CITY:
DEAR SIR:-I desire to ascertain from
you the present situation Of the proposed
extion of the Ravine Road sewer, to be
made under she commission appointed by
Judge Magic some two or three years
ago. l write to you because you have
acted as counsel TO the commission, and
because / have learned that they
their labors In the shape Of q
communication to the Board of Finance
OF Jersey City recommending the con-
struction OF the sewer and Outlining
plan for this important work. This
report has been pending before the Board
OF Finance. Of Jersey City for some
months. and while the City or Hoboken
does not desire to unduly hasten ths
necessary preiiminaries for such a large
undertaking, / respectfully submit tnRt
the the time has now come for action q
the part Of y our city.
s'The City Of Hoboken has suffered
from the overflow of this sewer for
twenty years; 1t has created an tntoler-
able nuisance which Is increasing every
day. Should any epidemic break ont In
either city this sewer would be an active
power for evil in spreading the same.
This nuisance 1s created wholly IN jersey
City; not one drop of the sewage going
dow through the sewer has It's origin In
HobokeD. and yet for years our city has
been made dumping ground.
while the growth OF Aoboken has
been seriously retarded in the vicinity Of
this sewer. the nuisance has also injurt-
ously affected Jersey City. II for no
other reason than the preservation OK
public health. to say nothing of the ppb-
lie comfort, this sewer should be built 70
tide water.
UNLESS some action is taken by Jersey
City very soon, 1t will become my duty,
as Mayor of this city, to devise some
means to compel the proper solution Of
the problem. trust that you put this
matter before the proper Boards In your
city in such a manner that relief will
come speedily.
yours truly.
