LEXINGTON STIRRED UP.
Sensational Scenes in a Church Over Col
onel Breckenridge.

LEXINGTON, KY, May THE town
is wild with excitement over the sem
sationa1 scenes witnessed in the Meth
odist church (South) last night. After
the noted boy preacher, H c. Morrison
had finished his sermon, the pastor,
Rev. e t. Southgate, began to talk
about the attack made by Colonel
Breckenridge at the opera house. He
said that he was willing to lay down
his life, if need be, in defense of the
virtue of the women of his congrega-
ton. With this he broke down
Then Morrison arose and said the
city of Lexington was a "Sodom and
Gomorrah,'' that so many of her
people wanted to honor this man
(meaning Breckinridge) even by re-
turning him to congress
SOuthgate then added that he was
sorry his original remarks before the
Young Mems Christian association had
not been printed in every paper in the
land 81 repeat those remarks" he
said, 81 again say that no decent
Christian can afford to vote for this
man" His remarks were gree ted
with applause.

ABOUT NICARAGUA.


England Compels Her to Cancel the with
drnwa1 OF Consul Bingham's Exsquatur.
New ORLEANS, La, May THE
latest advices from Bluefe1ds report
the answer to the demands of the
British minister. Goslin, that Nicar-
aqua has Cancelled her withdrawal of
Consul Bingham's exequatur.
Bingham refused to receive the ex-
equatur unless accompanied by ample
apology on the part of Nicaragua, to
come through the hands of Minister
Goslin. In reply Consul Bingham has
been called to Managua, the capital,
and all boats on the San Juan river
and the lakes are held at his disposal
Minister Baker and Captain Watson
have both fully approved of the action
and course followed by Consul Braida-
The murderer of Wilson, the .Ameri-
can, has not yet been captured and
has roamed at large. Captain Watson
has requested, however, that he be
arrested and tried
The Americans have been frequent
~ told by the Nicaraguans: Your
government will do nothing for you;
we know that and, acting on that
assumption, have insulted Consul
Braida, American citizens and the
government of the United States.
Had the government at Washington
proper respect would be shown to
American interests, American citizens
and the country's flag broad.
The action of Nicaragua in cancel
ing Consul Bingham's exequatur, and
his being called to Managua, suggests
that England, in forcing her treaty
right. is obtaining something better
from Nicaragua and, as usual, by her
vigorous policy, is getting ahead of
the United States

KELLY'S TRANSPORTS
The First Boat of His Navy is
Launched.
Its Trial Trip Proves Quite
Satisfactory.
ALL WILL GO WELL
With Gen. Kelly as He Sails as
He Sails.
ALL WILL GO WELL

Dies MONIES, Iowa, May THE
eighth day OF Kelly's stay in Des
Moines saw preparations for their
final leave taking under good head
way. Early yesterday morning lum-
Der began to be delivered at a point
below the confluence of the Des Moines
and Moon rivers At 10 o'clock a detail
of 800 men, mostly mechanics of
more or less experience, picked
out of the army, left the camp
under the leadership of General
Kelly, marched three abreast to
the place where the lumber had
ing on fat boats. On the way they
sang Marching Through Georgia, .
and while crossing the river struck
up There's One More River to Cross
They set to work with great eager
ness, and before noon at least twenty
and about fifty were nearly completed
yesterday Kelly explained that it
was the first chance his men have had
to work, and he was very proud of
the impression they made in this role.
At o'clock the first boat was COM
p1eted, pitched and launched. Three
cheers were given for the first evil
dence of the Kelly navy. After ply
ing around for a short time, Kelly and
the two women who joined the army
at Omaha got into the bow with four
of his men, and amid great cheering
began the journey down the river to
test it's ability to float the navy. The
trial trip was pronounced in theory
every way perfect.
At 6 o'clock the men dropped their
tools and marched back to camp. To
day most of the boats will be finished,
but it is very doubtful whether the
army will set sail before Wednesday
morning. Meanwhile a committee is
going ahead, calling on the farmers
and the people of the towns near the
river, to meet them as they float
down. and supply them with food.
The prospects are that the river will
be lined with people and carriages all
the way down, as the country is thick
1y settled by prosperous people.
Kelly expects to reach Ottumwa,
about ninety miles down, on the even
ing of the second day, but he will
hardly do so by the end of the fourth
day, according to good judges. There
are many here who look upon the
river journey as a piece of nonsense
and regard failure the only possible
outcome.
Many Des Moines carpenters as
sisted in the work of building boats.
The 1aboring men here have only one
desire, and that is to get rid of the
army

of the introduction of the amendments

The senators who are engaged in
formulating them were at work upon
them all day yesterday, notwith-

also employed. with them a good part
of Saturday night. They had the as

be conceived without giving all the

in the senate. There will
be few startling changes. but
a great many of them. Indeed it is
known the amendments, when incor-

if not more, alterations than were
made in the house bill by the finance
committee, when reported to the SEN

that the report, when made, will fully
