MINTSTERS' MEETING.

Rev. Dr. Harwood Pattisen of the University of Rochester, N. r., and formerly pastor of the First Baptist church of this city, read an interesting paper at the ministers weekly meet ing in Center church chapel yesterday. His subject was "Congregational Wor- ship" He made 8 strong argument in favor of the Congregattonalists adopting a liturgy and written prayer after the manner of the Episcopaliana He declared that by the present extem- poraneous method the strength and beauty of the prayer depended largely on the physical condition of the clergy man making it. He also pointed out that many of the best Congregational ministers of the country favored the adoption of 8 liturgy and that a move- ment was setting in toward it's adop- tion.
 There was some opposition mani fested to the speakers views at the meeting, one speaker asserting that the proposed change would divert worship into rut and that one could tell O year ahead just what prayer the minis- ter would make oh 8 certain occasion.

HARVARD STANDING FIRM.
COMPLIANCE W'ITH CAPT. THORNIg'S
 REQUEST IlEPOSSIBLE.

The Correspondence on the Much Mooted
 Quetslon Regard. .ng the Football Game
 With ale Next Fall Has at Last Been
 Given to the Public-Fun Text of the | Letters.
 Cambridge Mass, May 19.-The cor respondence between Harvard and Yale relative to the arrangement of Ia foot ball game next fall was given out to- night. The letters are given below: Yale University Football Association,
 New Haven, Conn, May Ii, '95. MT Arthur H. Brewer:
 Dear sir-I regret that your Illness prevented your coming to New Haven as you proposed doing in your letter of April 23. Your visit would have given me the opportunity of informing you of Yale's position with regard to liar ward game next fall.
 During the last four or five months charges have been made against our team, repeated with persistence, the the original charge having come from a Harvard coach. We steadily refrained from complicating the situation by any reeriminations or statements except by publishing a denial on the part of the officials of the Springfield game of tha truth of the charges, which reflected not only on the Yale team, but the good name of our university itself
 While we do not hold you or your team responsible for these accusations, it was in your power to have contra dicted them and thus to have neutraliz- ed their serious effect, not only upon us, but upon the sport.
 Under these circumstances we feel that 1t would not be for the best inter- ests of football or the universities to run even 6 chance of a repetition of Yale's experience since the Harvard game. Unless, then, such contradic- tions come from you, would it not be wiser to allow the feelings thus engen- dered to cool with time rather than to enter upon contest with these recol- lections still fresh in our minds
 Should you still be unwilling to do us justice in this way, we have concluded to arrange no game with you.
 Let me assure you, however, that in case a proper contradiction of these charges is made we shall take pleasure in arranging a game with you and have up to this time reserved a date in the hope that it may be brought about.
 Otherwise negotiations will not per init us to hold that or any other date open later than May 22
 Very truly yours,
 S. B. THORNF.

New Bridge at Hnrtford.

Hartford, May 2O-rhe contract for the building of the temporary bridge was sub-let by the Berlin Iron Bridge company to Dean & Westbrook of New York. Their foreman is MT. Lang and the work which was begun this noon, will be done under his charge. This contract was closed in November last, soon after the bridge contract was awarded, at cost of $18,00O, which is S7 OO0 less than the insurance which will go to the state All of the material for it's construction is on the ground, in- cluding two large pile drivers, one on each side of the river. This situation greatly facilitates the quick construc- tlon of the temporary structure.

TENDERS FOR STREET CARS
WILL BE SELECTED BY COMMITTEE
 ON ORDINANCES,

Interesting Session of the Board of Council
 mon Last Even!ng-Park Street Will NoI
 be eExtended-Councilmen so Vote Unnni-
 mously-Other Business Transacted.
 The proposed ordinance relating to the speed and equipment of electric cars was the fruitful source of consid- erable discussion at the adjourned meet ing of the board of councilmen last evening, and the question of lenders and the committee which should recom- mend the proper kind of lenders to be used, thoroughly discussed. The hitch was between the committee on rail- roads and bridges and the committee on ordinances, and the claim properly made that the lenders had no business to be considered or acted upon by the committee on ordinances.
 After the meeting had been called to order Councilman Curtis started the ball rolling by moving a reconsidera- ton of the action taken on the matter at the last meeting. This motion was unanimously passed, and the fun be- gan In earnest. Councilman Rouri1e immediately moved that the councilman concur with the board of aldermen in adopting the report and referring | the matter of lenders to the committee on ordinances,
 Councilman ullman--I desire to make an amendment, I move that the mat ter of lenders be referred to the com mittee on railroads and bridges, as it properly belongs to that committe. President Nicholl-Fhe amendment I will declare out of order,
 An appeal from the decision of the chair was taken, and the decision sus- tained by a vote of 22 to 5. After a lengthy discussion the members of the council by an aye and nay vote de- cided to concur with the board of alder men and refer the matter of the style and equipment of street cars with fem ders to the committee on ordinances The members voting in the negative were Councilmen Ullman, Whitaker Clifford, Frisbie, Hurd and Beaulah.
 The report of the committee on streets recommending that the petitioners for the extension of Park street to Whalley avenue be given leave to withdraw was unanimously accepted and the recom- mendation adopted. A large number of the congregation of Christ church were present at the meeting.
 On the recommendation of the com mittee on lamps an electric light was ordered erected at the corner of Artlzan and Court streets.
 Aftera lengthy discussion it was voted to indefinitely postpone action on the resolution recalling from he board of public works all orders for the top dressing of streets In the several sec tions of the city. There are about 100 such orders now on file in the board of public works.
 After the board adjourned Council man Beaulah made a brief statement as to the causes, etc, which led to his arrest by Officer Murphy. He claimed that his arrest was unjust and Ln- warranted, and 1t had been clsarly proven that the methods of Jain class of officials will admit of a iarge infusion of American civllity and ro- likeness.

By New Haven Men.

Prof G. R. Bacon, of the University of California, formerly of New Haven,
 is one of the contributors to the Yale
 Review for May. He offers a survey of
 the Napoleonic literature of recent years. Brayton Ives, one of New York's famous financiers of to-day, for
 merly also of New Haven has an ar ticle in the same excellent periodical
 on "The Government and the Bond Sym
 dicate," and Principal George L. Fox
 of Hopkins Grammar school, New Ha-
 ven, also contributes an article, the
 subject of which is 'The London Coun-
 ty Council and Its Works.
 MT. Ives says In his article on "The
 Syndicates Profits," as follows:
 "The impression prevailed largely
 that these profits would be represented
 by the price paid the government,
 1041a, and the existing market quota
 tion of 120. This however, is not the case. The syndicate sold all the bonds at 112H. Therefore the measure of it's profit would be the difference between 104h and 112A, less any expenses which might be incurred in the transaction But no one can tell what those ex- penses will be. The contract calls for the furnishing to the government of up- wards of $32, 900, 900 of foreign gold of which only about $11 900, 900 have been delivered at this writing Who can tell what may be the cost of procuring the remaining $21, 100000? Present indica- tions are that no unusual trouble or ex- pense will be incurred, but there is an element of risk involved which is leg itimate and appreciable factor in cal culating compensation. Thus far no division of profits has been made by the managers of the syndicate, and all the members are held responsible for their share of possible loss. For the next four months they must take the risk of foreign wars and commercial disturbances all over the world. It is not likely that under the most favor able conditions the expense will be less than 1hs per cent, so that the cost of the bonds will be 1O6, and the measure of profits will be the difference between this price and 112A, the figure at which the bonds were sold. Inasmuch as per cent. is a customary bankers com mision for the placing of large loan, It cannot be considered that 614 per cent. is am excessive profit in this case, especially in view of possible additional expenses"

Harvard University.
To the Athletic Authorities of Yale

 To the Athletic Authorities of Yale University;
 Dear Sirs-The recent letter from Captain Thorne to Captain Brewer, which raises an important question of intercollegiate athletic policy has been referred to the Harvard athletic com- mittee.
 The committee believing that it would be better to let by-gones be by-gones, regrets the revival of the discussion concerning the last Springfield football game. Since. however, Captain Thorne asks Harvard to contradict the opin- ions publicly expressed by her chief coach the day after the game the com mittee must frankly say that com pliance with this request Is impossible. There is nothing in the feeling of the Harvard players, or of Harvard men generally, which would prevent their meeting the Yale men next No vember in a spirit of generous rivalry. If however the feeling in New Haven Is such that Yale Is unwilling to ar- range a game with Harvard for next autumn the committee can only ex- press the general regret of Cambridge men that the two colleges must lose this opportunity of showing that they have the will and the ability to play football with each other in a friendly and sportsmanlike spirit.
 Yours truly,
 JAMES BARR AYES, Chairman Harvard Athletic Commit

CREEDON AND M4HER YIN
Corbett and Paddy Ryan Were Among tn,
 Spectators of the Bout.

Corbett and Paddy Ryan Were Among the Spectators of the Bout. Coney Island, May 20.-The Sea
 Beach palace was reopened by the At
 lantic Athletic club this evening for boxing entertainments. Many sporting
 men were present, including James J.
 Corbett and Paddy Ryan of Troy. The opening bout of the evening was
 between Dolly Lyons of New York
 and .Maxey HUagh of Brooklyn. Ten
 rounds were fought. The referee de- clared Lyons the victor, but the crowd
 was greatly dissatisfied with the de- cision.
 The second bout was a twelve round one between Billy Creedon of Australia and Joseph Dunfee of Syra- cuse The men fought at 160 pounds. No hard blows were struck in the first round. In the second round Cree don landed heavily on the stomach twice with his left. Creedon saw that he had every thing his way, and when he got Dunfee in corner he would turn his back on him and walk out to the center of the ring. Finally he went at Dunfee and punched him right and left until he fell. Creedon walked to his corner. Dunfee, however, got up again, and then Creedon walked back to him, and planting his right full on the chin sent hir7 to the floor in heap, dead to the world for the time be- ing. Time of the round was two min utes, seven seconds.
 The big event and final bout of the evening was a 25-round battle between Peter Maher of Ireland and Bob Marsh all of England. Maher's seconds in- cluded Billy Hennessy and Patsy Ker- rigan of Boston. The men, when called to the center of the ring, looked like giants. Maher was by far in the best He went at Marshall like an engine and knocked him down in rapid succession and finished him in a short space of forty-five seconds. It was a thunderbolt for the spectators, who had expected to see at least half a dozen rounds.

It levied tax on merchants and mercan- tile interests, while it let the bond-clip- per and rent-taker go free"
