SARATOGA, N. Y, May "a, 1S94.-The

president, made an address, at the con-
clusion of which the annual re-
port of the society was read. 1t

ment. the largest number ever
reported in the societys history.
OF these 81 were in the New England States,
4S in the Middle and Central Western
States, 215 in the Southern States, III
in the West, 6 in Canada, 26 in
Mexico and 2 in Alaska. There have
been 252 laborers among the foreign popu-
and 35 among the Indians. The mission
aries nave represented fourteen nation
alities. The society embraces not only
the Missionary, but also the church edlhce
and educational work of SOC, 10000 Baptists in
the North and West, as well as
the 1,500,00 0 colored Baptists of the South.
During the year it has alder in
the building of 81 church edifces and has
maintained 36 established schools Tor the
colored people, Indians and Mexicans,
besides a number of schools for
the Chinese on the Pacific Coast,
in Chicago and New York City. The school
enrolment for the colored people gives a
a total of 5,053: for the Indians, 403, and
reports 430 students for the min
istry. Reported conversions in the
schools, sos; total number of baptisms
reported by missionaries, 5,99s.
the society's receipts for all purposes
were s405, 2l3.45, and expenditures were
S524. 1851.
The year closed with a debt of S101, 1896.
This was owing in part to unexpected delay
in receiving some legacies that should have
come in during the year.
During the sixty years of the society's his
tory it has expended more than
eight million dollars for missionary,
church edifice and Educational pur-
poses. The school property for col
ored people is worth nearly a million dol
lars. The society appeals for at least a mil
zion dollars endowment for these institu-
tons. The society is also the
great pioneer home missionary or
ganization of American Baptists, the
Southern Baptists working through their
own convention, combining their home mis-
sion work chiefly to the Southern
States. The society's reports show
that from its beginning its missionaries
have organized 1900 churches and baptized
more than 133, 900 persons.

RosBBERY ON HOME RULE.
BIZ Gable to the United Press.

LONDON, May "A, ls94.-Lord Rosebery,
speaking at a complimentary breakfast in
Birmingham this morning, said that the
Home Rule bill contained many defects, but
the Liberals would make every possible at
tempt to solve the difficulties. He asked the
people of the nation to give to the Ministry
their support and encouragement in dealing
with the questions affecting the House Of
Lords.
Lord Rosebery said he wished from the
bottom of his heart to thank the Irish Party
in Parliament for coming forward to the as
sistance of the Government in a critical di-
vision. The Liberals, he said, would not
soon forget their action.

WOULD LIKE A SUBSIDY.
HI Cable 10 the United Press.


LONDON, May "a, 1S94.--Mr James E. Hud-
dart, the chief promoter Aof the Canadian
Pacific mail route to Australia via England,
said today in an interview with a represen-
tative of the United Press, that the British
Government had not promised to grant a
subsidy to the new line, but he was very
hopeful that they would grant one. Mr..
Huddart says the expectation is to put ships
on the new line as fast as they can be built,
the vessels of the Atlantic and Pacific lines
to be owned by the same company. He will
sail on June 9 on board the Steamship New
York. on his way to Ottawa. Mr.. Huddart
expects that each vessel sailing from Canada
will carry four thousand carcasses of Cana
dian chilled beef to England, as the new
ships will be deeper and correspondingly
more c~ommodious than any now existing.
The most important detail yet remaining to
be carried out is the selection of a British
port, which will doubtless be Southampton.
Milford Haven or Liverpool.

THE GRIFFING LOCKOUT.

The trouble between the Grifing Iron Com

settlement with the men and the
works are still shut down. Only a few fore
men are working there. The locked out
men are conducting their fight in a systema-
tic Manner, and pickets are still on guard to
prevent men from applying for work.

NARROW LONDON STREETS.

A proposed law that any new building
erected in London shall have its front not
less h twenty feet from the middle of the
street has brought out the fact that there
are in the heart of the city thirty-three
miles of streets less than forty feet broad.
If the principle were generally applied, on a
plan of reconstruction of streets, land to the
value of about $40, 100000 would be sacri-
feed.

SHERIFF ToFFEYs BILL

TVVV---TV --7r
TRENTON, May 81. 1S94-There seems to
be some trouble over the bill which gives the
Sheriff charge of the prisoners in the County
Jail. Some of the legal sharps think that it
wipes out the Penitsntiaries. So in order to
remove all doubts Mr.. McEwan introduced a
bill, which, it is said, removes all difficulties.
1t repeats the acts Of May Ii, 1894, and re-
vises the old law establishing the Peniten
tiaries and leaves those institutions in the
charge of the Freeholders.
