MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION
Met Yesterday Morning In the Y. M.
G. A. Paflcrs
Committee Appointed to Draft; Resolutions
for Future Action notion Made,
Adopted, and Sent to the Council

The meeting of the Ministerial union,
held yesterday morning in the Y. NJ c.
A. parlors, was small but active. Many
of the preachers are out of town, on their
vacations. or conducting camp meetings
or other services at the various seaside re-
sorts. But the brothers who were present
knew what they wanted to do. and they
also knew that what moves they mace
would be satisfactory to the absent ones.
Without loss or time. therefore, Mr.. W. B.
Barber was nominated to the presiding
chair, and S. G. Blanchard, was made
secretary pro TEN. Rev. Will A. Knighten
took this floor promptly. and proposed
that a committee of three lie appointed to
draft set of resolutions to be presented
at the next meeting of the union for dis
cussion, in which the plan of action to
be followed by the union in regard to the
"sncial evil" and other matters be dehned.
The committee was appointed as follows:
Rev.G. l.. Cole, Rev. J. J. Findley and
the Rev. Will A. Knightsn. The question
of the date for the next meeting then
arose; Mr.. Knighten urged that it be set
for Monday, August 26th, because it is
imperative that any decision reached in
the matters under consideration by the
union, be made in time to present it to
the counc. before the vacancies in the
police commission be filled, IN the hope
that the new mem bers might be men who
will be prepared to act In the present
crisis, promptly and fearlessy. Mr.. J. ].
Findley advised making no furthe. move
with the council for the present. but
work ingly quietly OIL the outside to gain
the sympathy and support of the people
at large. Mr.. Knighten. however. con-
tinued to urge steady and open warfare
on the part of the union, as the only means
of effecting any good results. and he cited
an instance of the ways the laws are
being evaded all the time, by relating an
incident that took place in his neigh bor-
hood last week. A woman. said Mr..
Knighten, stabbed man in house
near me; two of his friends came down
and hurried him away, leaving the wo-
man, drunk. in the house with another
woman; the police knew about it, but
there were no arrests made, and that is
only one OF many cases. In which the
laws are not enforced. We have accom-

SMASHED BY ENGINES
Two Trucks Run Into by s. p. Locomo.
fiYea

tives
Two similar accidents occurred yester-
day afternoon on the Southern Pacific
company's tracks. Two trucks were
smashed by being run into by engines
and about $3.50 worth OF damage done.
The first happened to one OF the heavy
trucks of the Pioneer Truck company
near the Capitol mills. 1t was driven by
William Kennedy, and had just been
loaded and was crossing one of the tracks
in the freight yard when the switch en-
gine came along and struck it in the
rear, completely smashing the large
wheels. and iniuring some of the goods
on the truck. The driver was uninjured.
He lays the blame of the accident on the
fireman OF the engine. The latter, he
says, saw the truck on the track, but in
stead of signaling to the engineer to stop,
he allowed the engine to strike the truck.
Mr.. Fuller, the manager OF the hauling
company. places his loss at about $l25, as
the wheels cannot be purchased here.
The other collision happened ON Ala
meda street to one of the wagons belong
ing to the Citizens Transfer company.
J. H. Reynolds was driving team of
heavy horses hauling load of lumber
along Alameda street, near Maud ware
house. One side of the street has been
torn up so with laying the electric track
that the only good stretch is near the
track. and it is SO narrow that one side
OF the vehicle has to be ran over the
track. AS he had big load on the
wagon. Reynolds drove the team on this
part in order to help them. When nearly
opposite the warehouse he saw the over
land coming down one track. while on
the other was passenger engine. They
we're on him before be had time to turn
out, and the engine struck the rear of the
wagon, knocking it over and killing one
of the valuable horses. Reynolds was not
hurt. although he stayed with his wagon.
The loss will probably be about $3.50.
The accident to the Pioneer Truck COM
pany's wagon is said to DE the first of the
kind that has ever occurred to any of the
crowds of trucks that have daily had
cause to drive about the freight houses.

Adams street and Vermont avenue, dur
ing his absence and samshed up the fur
niture. If she has not lett town Mrs
Halliday will be arrested this morning.

JAPAN WANTS 1T.

Has an Eye on the Little Republic of
Hawaii.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-The admins
tration is likely before long to be con-
fronted with another international COM
plication The Hawaiian question has
assumed a new phase, and while no
crisis has yet arrived, there is a menace
in the situation which is likely at any
moment to cause trouble there, and the
unfriendly attitude of the present ad-
ministration toward the Hawaiian gov
ernment is calculated to encourage the
threatened disorder.
Minister Castle, who has recently ar
rived in Washington, has referred eau
tiously to the attitude Of Japan toward
Hawaii. Private advices explain the
meaning of this reference. 1t is stated
that the Japanese government desires
to get possession of Hawaii and over
throw the Dole government. The next
step in the new Japanese policy of ag-
gression and acquisition, it is believed,
will be in this direction. The Japanese
in Hawaii have maintained hostile at
titude toward the government and =Se

HAWAIIAN CHOLERA.

Only Two Cases Reported In Two Weeks
Past.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10.-The steamer
Australia has arrived bringing the fol-
lowing from Honolulu, under date Oct2:
But two cases Of cholera have devel-
oped in the past IA days. The record to
date is 81 cases. OF that number Is
died. But 2 white people have sue
cumbed to the disease. OF the total
number of cases 80 were Hawaiians.
The natives persisteltly refused to re-
port cases until the victims were dead
or dying. Natives acted contrary to rules
made by the board Of health. They claim
cholera is brought to the country
to exterminate them and blame the
white man for the visitation. The
board of health made house to house
search twice every day until the 23d
ult., when the whole town received a
thorough cleaning. But two new cases
have been reported since that date. 1t
is believed the trouble is now over.
There is much distress among the Ha-
waiians. A relief station has been
opened to supply them with food. About
twenty thousand rations are handed out
weekly. There is considerable doubt as
to the real nature of the disease. Many
claim that it is not cholera. The cause
Of tbs trouble is attributed to poisoned

PLANNING MORE MURDER.

DR.. Meyers Trying to Put More People
Out of the Way.
SING SING, N. Y, Oct. 10.-Warden
Sage has submitted to General Lathrop,
superintendent Of state prisons at AL
bany, certain correspondence confscated
in DR.. Henry F. Meyers cell in Sing
Sing prison, which shows up plot on
the part Of the doctor to carry out a
murder similar to the one for which he
was convicted and sentenced to prison
for life.
Meyer was tried for murder, by slow
poison, of Carl Brant, SO that he could
get the insurance money on Brandt's
life. Meyers wrote letters in German
to his wife, who was arrested with him,
but was not tried, planning another
murder, SO that she could get certain in
surance money which was to be used in
getting him out of prison.
He Wrote in German,
The plan was called to the warden's
attention some time ago, when Meyer
gave Chaplain Wells a letter written in
German 10 Mrs. Meyer He asked the
chaplain to mail it for him. When the
letter was translated the plot was dis
covered. A watch was placed on the
doctor and his cell was searched, which
brought to light letters and memoranda
planning the murder. In the letter to
his wife he said that he would send her
a prescription to be used which would
do the work. Warden Sage said that
the matter was now in the hands Of
Superintendent Lathrop, and a full
investigation would be made. DR..
Meyer is now employed in the clothing
shop. When he came to the prison he
wanted place in the apothecary shop,
and also i'll the hospital, but Prison
Physician Irvine refused him place in
either department..

Road Said to Have Contributed $4,000
to an Elect on Fund.
ST.. PAUL, Oct lO-A Pioneer Press
special from Helena, Mon, says:
An important addition to the proceed
ings Of the United States court, i'll the
case of the Farmers Loan and Trust
company VS.. the Northern Pacific, oc-
CURED when Judge w. Cullen, for the
old receivers, asked the court to recon-
slider and reverse it's order of the re-
moval Of the old receivers, and in lieu
of this order accept their designations.
Judge Knowles did not seem inclined to
grant Mr. Cullen's prayer.
"Courts can only act upon facts, said
his honor, "and I have received no facts
to justify such a reversal. Moreover,
the court must act according to law"
He then gave several reasons for his
action, and ended his statement by de-
olaring:
II am willing to stand by my receiv-
ers against any that have been appoint
ed. 1 have made my appointments, and
1t they remove my receivers they will
have to supplant me.' Ex-senator San
ders declared that the old receivers
were guilty Of the most reckless and
wasteful use of Northern Pacific money.
He stated that he was cognizant Of one
fact, and that was that $4,000 Of North
ern Pacific money had been appropri-
ated and put to use in last winters
senatorial campaign in Montana. -
Senator T. H. Carter, who was sue
cessful in that election, replied: ''That
is absolutely untrue. That is abso-
lutely true, retorted Colonel Sanders.
This created quite stir in the court
room, and a crisis seemed imminent,
but matters soon settled themselves and
quiet reigned again.

New Interests Will Work Against Con-

NEW YORK, Oct 1O.-The Wall Street
Journal says: cit is thought in well.
informed circles here that the Northern
Pacific receivers will have to go to the
Pacific coast to appear before Judge
Hanford, or subject themselves to pos
sible arrest for contempt The situation
in this respect is getting to be serious
in the eyes Of some lawyers, because it
might he followed by other moves of
an expensive character to Northern Pa
citic security holders. The Great
Northern people claim that they are in
better position than ever to secure
control Of the property, but against this
is the statement Of the leading parties in
interest that there is to be complete
change in the personnel Of the manage
ment of the property both as to legal
advisers and to service managers. The
new interests in the property will be
found working i'll the line Of maintain
ing the property independent of the
Great Northern, and also in the line of
developing it's business to greater ex-
tent than ever before, so as to make re-
organization more easy, because of the
confidence which the consolidated bond
holders will have in dealing with the
prior liens"
The new interests in the foregoing
article allude to the Brayton Ives party.
