AN INoENDIARY PREACHER.
A Colored Preacher Who Is Not
Safe-His Utterances Coun-
sci Crime

CHICAGO, Oct. 7.-"If the law is
not allowed to take its course con-
corning our men involved in crime,
the torch must be applied in those
cities where the outrages occur"
These words were uttered last
night at the close of evening serv-
ices by Rev. j. NJ. Townsend, coll
ored pastor OF Quinn chapel, cor
ner Twenty-fourth street and Wa
bash avenue. An audience OF a
thousand colored people applauded
the sentiment and rose to their
feet to further show their approba-
ton of their pastors stand. Rev.
Mr.. Townsend's sermon had been
called forth by the report in the
morning papers of the outrage up
on Neal Smith at Chattanooga.
When it was finished the pastor
gave out the hymn, "Thou Sleep
est, Justice, Awake"
At the conclusion Of the singing
of the hymn, Rev. DR.. Townsend
asked the audience to remain q
short time, saying: 81 want no
one to leave the house while L am
speaking" He produced clipping
from a morning paper, giving an
account Of the torturing Of Neal
Smith and then said: "This must
stop in a Christian land. II the
law is not allowed to take its
course concerning our men in
volved in crime, the torch must be
applied to those cities where the
outrages occur"
The preacher delivered these
sentences in an impassioned man.
ner, and as he finished for a mo-
ment there was silence and then
the entire audience rose and ap-
plauded. The quick endorsement
of his position seemed to confuse
the Rev. Mr.. Townsend and he re-
manned silent. The audience was
then dismissed and slowly left the
church.

TO REDUCE EXPENSES.
Alderman Mackey's Inquiries and
Chief Tobin's Plans to Effect


Alderman Mackey will probably
introduce a resolution in the coun-
Gil this afternoon to retrench eX-
penses in the market department
Of the city. He has learned that
the market master and his three
assistants do not collect each
month enough to even pay the ex-
penses Of this department., while
the one policeman detailed by
Marshal Druse to collect rents
from the vegetable stands on the
plaza markets collects nearly
double the amount they collect. A
sample is given in the July collec-
lions, where the market master re-
ported collections Of only $1S6.32
while the marshal's man collected
S472.70. The latter only receives
$50 per month, while the others are
paid more salary.
Chief Tobin of the fire depart
ment, has been scanning his black
smith bills closely OF late and finds
they average something about $50
per month for the general shoeing
and repairs of the service. He has
inquired what the street commits
sioner's department expends for
blacksmithing, and learns it will
average 500 per month. He now
contemplates asking the council to
appoint an official blacksmith, at a /.
salary, to do the work Of the two
departments. 1t is said both May
or Elmendorf and Alderman
Robards, chairman OF the finance
committee, are favorable to the
proposed plan.

LANGTRY's CASE CONSIDERED
No Denial Made of Her Intended
Marriage to Sir Robert Peel.

New YORK, Oct. Tt has been
frequently stated that Mrs. Lang
try's object in suing for divorce
was to enable her to contract a
marriage with Sir Robert Peel,
whose attentions to her were not
only the talk of Monaco, where it
is said that the couple first met,
but also Of the whole of Europe.
Mrs. Langtry and Sir Robert also
spent some portion Of the summer
together in Baden Baden.
The Jersey Lily" is at present in
London. In reference to the rumor
that Mrs. Langtry was to marry
Sir Robert Peel her counsel, A. H.
Hummel, said: ~ have no knowl-
edge that Mrs. Langtry intends
any such thing, but it would not
surprise me in the least, II, when
her present marriage bonds are
shattered, she should marry again
and possible scion Of the British
nobility. Under the laws of Cali
fornia Mrs. Langtry Is entitled to a
divorce on the ground Of non-sup-
port. She has been a resident Of
and citizen of that state for years
and owns ranch In Lake county.
The summons and complain t in her
action are in the hands of our Lon.
don correspondent and at present
no steps can be taken in court. The
suit will not be tried in San Fran
cisco but in Lake county, where
her interests are located"
