unless he happens to have few chill
dren.n Mr.. Bean said he had deeply felt
the long period of trial while he waited
for the making of some specific charges
against him. 81 feel deeply" he said,
1.-The injustice that has been done me,
but thank God that he has raised up
SO many good friends in the Vaughan
street church."
He then spoke of the call that had
been extended to him, and of the fact
that many of those who were present at
that meeting started in the Christian
life under his ministry. 10 those who
extended to him the call he would say:
nobly, grandly, and it gives me great
pleasure to accept your call. (Cries of

you."
The charges made against Mr.. Bean
were seemingly not of grave order.
One of the charges not redl ced to
writing, was that Mr.. Bean wore pair
of white pantaloons to a church picnic,

charged that he had admitted members
totthe church without consulting with
the official board. and that he had given
out unsuitable hmyns," although he
used those found in the regular eollec-
ton of the Methodist church. Another
charge was that while in Bath with a
yachting party, Mr.Bean drank almost
q half bottle of ginger ale, and it was
further alleged that at later period he
remarked that if he had the rest of that
ale, or some like it, he would drink it.

Skowhegan, April 18th. The matter OF
appoin tments in the Lewiston district
is exciting much attention, as it is like
ly to be a year of changes. The follow
ing hints are thrown out as indications
of what possibly may be the outcome at
some points. In Auburn, it is quite
we'll understood that Rev.F. G. Rogers
will go to Pine street, Portland. The
understanding that Rev. Mr.. Lindsay
would come to Auburn, seems not so
sure, since his Portland society wish to
retain him. Rev. W. B. Dukeshire OF
Brunswick, has been invited to Wood
fords but will probably remain in his
present pastorate. Rev. A. E. Parlln has
been at Bridgton three years. There
has been talk of change, but 1t is
probable that he will remain, Rev.
James Wright has been at Chebeague for
five years and will change, under the
limit of appointments.

HOWE'S BAD LUCK
One of Wicked Holmes
Victims.
ONLY A YOUNG LAWYER.
He Jumped at the First Case
That Came.
NOT MEANING TO BE A CRIMINAL.
Nevertheless He Is In the Tolls of
the Law and Must Stand
Trial.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 22-Jephtha D.
Howe, young ST. Louis lawyer, who, in
connection with II. II. Holmes, is charged
with defrauding local insurance COM
pany of $4,000, reached the city to-day
from st. Louis. He was met by Marshal
f. Mcdonald of ST.. Louis, the law partner
of young Hows's brother, aud surren-
dered himself. Lawyer Mcdonald said ::
"This arch consp rator, Fl. Il. Holmes, or
II. II. Morgan, the name by which he was
known in st. Louis, came to the office
while l was absent in Colorado and pro-
posed a case. saying Mrs. Pitzel wanted
some one to represent her. 1t was the
first case the boy had ever been offered.
and he jumped right into it with all the
ardor and enthusiasm of youth. He did
not wait for US to return. and the result
was this slick crook imposed upon him.
My young friend may have been indis-
Greet, but he is no criminal"
LAWYER Howe late in the day, gave out
a statement in reference to his connection
with the Holmes-Pitzel affair. 1t was a
complete denial of the criminal motives at
lributed to him and detailed how be came
to be engaged as counsel. The whole
thing, he claims, was entirely professional.
After the supposed death OF Pitzel under
another name he claims that he did not
proceed with the case until Mrs. PitZel sat
isfied him that the dead man was her hus-
band.
Howe was taken to court and released
under a bond of $500. BE was asked to
say something about his connection with
Holmes in the matter.
81 do not desire to say anything about
that at this time," he replied. NOR about
several matters with which my name has
been connected"
Superin tendent of Police Lindley be-
lieves Howe was mised by Holmes. A. S.

act as counsel for young Howe.

WICKED MISS HOGAN.
Not So Bad as She Is Painted,

One Witness Who Swore That He

Against Her.

| FARGO, n. D.. Nov. 22.-Helen Trpp of
Helena was the first witness put on the
stand in the Hirschfed divorce case to-
day. She was an employe in Justice
Murphy's Office, where Hirschfeld and Miss
Hogan were married. Hirschfed ap-
peared 10 be depressed and dow hearted
and did not seem as though he was par
ticularly pleased with his marriage. Jake
Hildebrand was a clerk in the New York

ployed as cashier. He had in his deposi-
ton taken in Helena sworn that Mrs.
Hogan's character had been above re-
Droach during the period she was en-
ployed in the store. Witness said that ten
days after giving this testimony be
thought the matter over ard concluded
that he had erred. He had since recol-
lected many circumstances which woulu
reflect upon her character and had fire.
quently seen one Of the clerks put his arm
around her. He had resolved to come to
Fargo as a witness to correct the errors in
his deposition.
E. w. Anderson was the much h-talked-o of
witness whose testimony was to clear
Hirschfeld of all allegations that he was
the father of her child, and at the same
time convict the bride of lewdness. 1t is
on his testimony that the whole fight of
the case will be made. In August of last
year he was bellboy at the Palmer House
in Chicago. Hirschfeld and Miss Hogan
stopped there three days. During this
time witness said he had made and kept
an engagement with her. The Kisses of
the spectators we're silenced by the court,
but they made the witness nervous, and
when counsel asked: How much did you
get for giving this testimony" he blurted
out -Four hundred dollars and expenses"
On cross-eXamina alton witness said he had
been employed by Superintendent Deve-
reaux of the United States Pinkerton
agency of South Clark street, Chicago.

that have reached here from Madagascar
show that the arrival al Antanarivo of
DevIlers. the special envoy to present the
demands of France to the Malagassy Gov
ernment, was marked by the outbreak of
robberies and incendiary fires. The Gov
ernment made no effort to repress the dis
order. Two agents Of the firm of Rebut &
Sarrante. on the west coast of Madagas-
car, have been murdered by natives and
their quarters sacked. One of the victims
was Frenchman and the other a native

Knights of Labor Rushing Their
Business.
They Found Time by the Way to
Take a Crack at Mr..

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 22.-The Knights
of Labor had a busy session to-day. Reso-
lutions were adopted that each local as
sembly shall make maximum scale OF
wages above the regular scale adopted by
the National Trades Assembly; that all
grievances and complaints must come up
in the local courts OF the assem- blies within
sixty days; that the Legislatures OF the
various States be memorialiZed to enact
laws providing for the creation of State
labor bureaus; that all tradesmen shall
affiliate with organizations of their own
trade; that in labor parades no flags ex-
cept the national colors shall be carried,
and that plank be inserted ia the Knights
of Labor preamble against gambling in
farm products or options.
A resolution making ex-representatives
to the General Assembly ineligible as Off
GERS was defeated.
The Knights of Labor General Assembly
at its afternoon session continued its work
of railroading business through. and it
was noteworthy thai more time was spent
in unseating the Pennsylvania miners
delegation than there was in passing any
number of bills and resolutions. Among
other recommendations of consequence
and importance by the law committee was
the one presented modifying the constitu-
tion where the past master workman has
the privilege of voting in the General AS
sembly. This clause was ordered stricken
out and In future the past master work
man will have seat in the General Assem-
bly,, but no vote. 1t was also decided to
admit walters in beer saloons and res
taurants, but not barkeepers. This COM
peted the report of the committee on laws.
The committee on the state of the order
reported the order TO be in very healthy
condition.
II was reported that the carpenters of
the Amalgamated Association and Ameri-
can Federation of Labor were organized
in war against the Knights of Labor and
the latter desired some assistance from
the General Assembly. The appeal was
laid before the house, and the vote was in
favor of rendering what assistance lay in
their power TO give.
The grievance committee and the COM
mittee on secret work will make their re-
ports tomorrow, when the convention will
adjourn.

DEFINING A LABORER.
This Decision Will Reach a Great
Many Cinnamon.

NEW YORK, Nov %. - Commissioner
Shields has rendered decision in the case
of Lee Yuen which will have a far-reach-
ing effect on Chiname in this country.
He held Lee Yuen fol- deportation on the
ground that LIE was Chinese laborer pre-
vious to his departure for China and since
his return this city. Lee Yuen lived in
this city for number of years. He went
to China about two years ago and returned
last January by way of Canada.
The law permits Chinese merchants to
return to this country, but excludes labor
ers. The Commissioners order of depor-
tation is based upon a decision rendered
last month by Judge Fox defining meT-
chant as one engaged in the business of
buying and selling, and who does not en-
gage in any other kind of work. Agent
Scharfs says he will now arrest 800 other
Cinnamon whose situations are like that Of

regarding the Mexican -Guatemalan
trouble. 1t says: SIN consequences of the
continued attacks against Mexico and her
Government made by the official Guate-
malan press, it was rumored yesterday
that this country would declare diplomatic
relations with Guatemala at an end. In
Guatemala they say the Mexicans always
fed before the Americans and the French.
The world knows the Mexican soldier does
not turn his back. Cherubusco, Chepulte-
pee and Puebla are witness of that. With
Guatemala we do not expect glory or the
gaining of laurels. We have offered them
friendship and they retuEn black ingrati-
tude, and our men and our people are not
in humOr to listen to tbs diatribes of the

Emilio de Leon, the new Guatemalan
Minister to Mexico. disembarked yester-

Standard Oil People Rather Scott at
Texas Law.

GAdS Law
NEW YORK, Nov. 22-Regarding the
indictments of Flaglor, Rockefeller and
others by the Grand Jury of McLennan
County, Tex. yesterday, S. c. T. Dodd,
attorney for the Standard Oil Company,
said: "The same thing has been done
before, and the indictment was dismissed,
as it undoubtedly will be in this case. The
Standard Oil Company does no business in
Texas anyway, but sells TO ST. Louis
parties. who supply the trade in the South
west"
After reading the Texas telegram care
fully. Mr.. Dodd says: "The statute under
which these indictments have been secured
is one of those crazy socialstic laws which
are unconstitutional. l have known sew
eral cases that have been brought up under
these laws. but never yet heard of con-
victioD; in fact, none of them came to
trial, and all were dismissed. The Governor
of New York would not, am sure, sign
reQuisitions for the extraditon of parsons
who, not having been in Texas, cannot in
the eyes of the law be fugitives from
justice"
Mr.. Dodd denied that the Standard Oil
Company had any interest in the Waters
Pierce Company. and said if any of their
members had shares they would only
amount to minor interest.
