Questions That Came before the
synod sst Denver.
DENVER, Col, June 13.-The synod of
the Reformed Presbyterians adjourned at
midnight, and most of the delegates have
gone today on a trip to Pixies Peak.
The refusal CT the New York presbytery
to organize a reform presbytery in Cam
bridge, Mass, in response to a petition
from a congregation in that place was
overruled, and the petition of the Cam
bridge people granted.
The committee on temperance reported
very strong resolutions against the sale or
use of liquors and tobacco, and the report
was adopted unanimously. The govern
ment of the United States was condemned
for the countenancing of the liquor traffic
and the sale of narcotics. The synod de-
cided to enlarge its work among the In
dianS in kiahoma, aud will endeavor to
unite the small congregations and supply
them with preachers
The report of the committee on Sabbath
observation as submitted by Rev. J. R.
Wylie was accepted and commented on
most favorably. He condemned Sunday
mails, transportation, newspapers, street
cars and all kinds of work. also the ten
dency to turn the day into an occasion for
merry-making.

! THE DIPLOMATIC CORPS
Ambassadors and Foreign Ministers VEL
coined by Secretary of State 0lney.
Nearly Every Foreign Legation Here
Was Represented-The Introduce
tfons Made by NJ. Pntenotre.

Upon the invitation of Secretary Olney
! all of the ambassadors and foreign minis
ters in Washington came to the Depart
ment of Safe this morning to pay their
respects t: the new Secretary. The mem
bers of the diplomatic body gathered in
the diplomatic waiting room, where they
were welcomed by Assistant Secretaries
Adee and Rockhill, and al IL o'clock they
were shown into the large diplomatic re-
ception room, where Secretary Olney was
in waiting to receive them, assisted 3y Mr.
Lands, private secretary to the late Sec
retary Gresham, and his own private Sec
retary, Mr.. Blandford
Introduced by NJ. Patenotre.
NJ. Patenotre, the French ambassador
headed the line, acting as dean of the corps
IN the absence OF Sir Julian Pauncefote
the British ambassador and next to him
came Baron Fava, the Italian ambassador
NJ Patenotre formally presented the mem
bers OF the corps to Secretary Olney, al
tnough he had already become acquainte ed
with most of them while Attorney General
Inc aosentees were few. and in most of
theSe cases the embassies and legations
we're represented by secretaries. Thus Wis
count Cough came from Massachusetts 10
represent the British embassy; Senior Rem
giro appeared for Colombia, Senor Calvo
stood in triple capacity for Costa Rica
Guatemala and Honduras, and Senior
Dominguez came for the Argentine lega-
tion The legations unrepresented were
those of Turkey tMinister Mavroyeni being
ilD, Russia, Hayti, Siam and the Domini-
can Republic. The diplomatists were not
IN uniform, but wore morning DRESS and
the affair was rather informal, lasting but
fifteen minutes. Secretary Olney had a
few appropriate words in response to the
congratulations that We're extended to him
by each Of his callers, and the members
of the corps took advantage of the gather
ing to exchange farewell greetings With
each other, as most of them are about to
leave Washington for the summer vaca-
tfon in the course of few days.
New Practice.
1t is said that Secretary Olney iLaugu-
rated new practice in thus assembling
the corps to greet them upon his acces-
sion to office 1t has been the custom in
such cases to acauaint the ambassadors
and ministers by formal notes with the
fact that there has been a change in the
head of the Department of State and then
the foreign representatives occupied several
weeks of the new Secretary's time and put
themselves 20 much inconvenience in CALI
ing separately upon the new Secretary to
extend their congratulations, SO that the
change made by Secretary Olney is well
coined by everybody interested.

LANDED AT JAMAICA
The Steamer George Ohi!ds Carrying a
Filibustering Expedition.
Started From Key West With Arms,
Ammunition and Men-Spnnish
GunbOata Eluded.

The steamer George Childs. carrying the
hlibustering expedition from Key West,
has landed at Jamaica. Definite informa-
tioI to this effect has been received here.
1t was due in large measure to the SAIL
ing of this expedition last week that the
administration determined on energetic
steps to prevent violation Of the neutrality
| laws, and caused President Cleveland to
issue his proclamation.
The information from Jamaica states only
that the steamer has landed, but does not
add details as to whether the filibusters
are still on board or We're landed at some
point in Cuba. Additional information is
expected as result of inquiries now max
ing.
Could Have Landed Her Party.
jamaica lies south Of the easterly end Of
Cuba, SO that the steamer George Childs
could have landed her party on the east
end of the island il she took the route
lying between Haiti and Jamaica on the
west coast of Cuba. 1t was first claimed
that the party numbered 2,C00 men, but
later ana more authoritative information
reaching here fixes the number at less than
nifty. including four leaders. Its progress
Is being watched. not because of its i'm
United States, and the determined steps
resolved upon by this government to re-
press filbustering.
Movements of the Steamer.
The George Childs sailed originally from
Philadelphia. When she cleared there was
nothing suspicious about her cargo, al
though a watch was kept on her move
ments. She stopped at a small point down
the Delaware bay, where it is believed she
took aboard arms, ammunition and a large
quantity of food supplies suitable for an
expedition Another steamer. the Bridge
port, accompanied her, but her future
movements are not yet located The Childs
moved down the Atlantic coast to a point
on Key West, where the filibus,ers had or
ganized their party. They are said to have
carried with them two cannon, mounted
consp.cuously with their muzzles protrud-
ing over the bulwarks. The efficiency of
these weapons IS doubted, however, owing
TO the information reaching here that they
were dug up after laying in the ground for
long time, and were used only for their
formidable appearance.
Spanish GUnbOats EIuded.
Jamaica is a British colony, and it is
said that the British authorities will take
all necessary steps to see that ilibustering
is not aided from that point. Spanish gun
boats nave been on the outlook for the Key
West party, so that the arrival of the
Chlds at Jamaica indicates that their
watch has been unavailing.
The fact that the informa ton from ia
maica gives only the arrival of the Childs,
without mention of the filibusters, leads to
the impression in some Quarters that I'M,
ST spicions directed against her may prove
unfounded. as there is only circumstantial
information thus far to show that she car
ried the party. The circumstances have
been sufficient however, to Induce tie
closest watch of all her movements, and
the authorities in Cuba have regarded her
as the vessel needing the most observation.

Trouble In the Creek Nation as to
Drawing of Checks.
A dispatch was received at the Treasury
Department yesterday from G. H> Small,
assistant treasurer Of the United States at
st. Louis, stating that he had been 1e-
quested by Acting Chief Bullet Of the

Treasurer Sam Grayson. Mr.. Small says
he notified Bullet that he .yould comply
temporarily with the request, pending fur
ther information on the subject At the
time OF writing he did not know the cause
or subject of the trouble. The books of
the ST. Louis office show balance OF
SlSI.OOO, subject to the orders of the treas
urer or the Creek Nation. No checks drawn
by Grayson have been presented for pay
ment since May 10 last. Mr.. Small asks
whether the Secretary approves his action
Secretary Carlisle Immediately referred
the matter to the Interior Department, ard
a-dispatch asking for information was sent
by the Indian office to D. NJ. Wisdom, agent
to the Five Civilized Tribes. The latter's s
reply, received this morning, reads as fol-
lows: THE principal chief Of Creek Ma
tion has been suspended by the national
council, and Edward Bullet, second chief
is now acting chief. The latter was in
structed by a resolution of the national
council to notify the assistant treasurer
of the United States at St Louis not to
honor checks drawn by Sam Grayson
treasurer of the Creek Nation, until fur
ther instructed; I snail advise further as
soon possible"
Mr.. Wfsdom's reply Will be at once for

ARE OUR STREETS POST ROADS.
A Nice Legal Question In ContrOvers!
In the Courts.


A case involving the rights Of munich
palities to prevent, under certain circum-
stances. the erection of telegraph poles on
the streets Of cities has come up in the
local courts here on an application for
writ to prohibit Judge Kimball of the
Police Court from sentencing two linemen
who had been convicted Of putting up
Postal Telegraph Company poles on 9th
street. While the case applies especially to
the District of Columbia, nearly similar
conditions obtain in many other places
Congress, by an act passed in 1866, gave
telegraph companies the right to erect
poles on all post roads of the United
States. Later, by another act, it declared
all the streets of the District of Columbia
to be post roads.
Under these laws, the Postal TELEGRAPH
Company claimed the right to erect poles
on 9th street. A regulation of the city
however, forbids such erection, and when
the company began work their men were
arrested, tried in the Police Court and
fined, the court considering that the munich
pal regulation controlled, and that the al
legged grant by Congress could not be con-
sidered.
As there Is no appeal from the Police
Court where it has jurisdiction, and no
remedy from its sentences, except by writ
or nabeas corpus when imprisonment is
decreed, the company applied to the Dis
trlct court for a writ to forbid the police
justice to carry out the sentence. The
question has been taken under advsement
