SEWING MACHINE COMBINE.
One Company Will Sell All the

CLEVELAND. o., Nov. 3O.-To-
day the plans adopted by the sewing
machine companies at New York
some time ago for consolidation
were carried out here. On Nov. &c
corporation papers were issued at
Columbus, O., for the American Ma
chine company to Frank Mack, Theo-
dore Bucher, NJ. D. Williams, Will
lam F. Kuder and A. J. Michael, with
authority for 100000 capital stock.
Today the company organized by
electing Frank Mack president, Will
lam F. Kuder vice president and
John A. Seaton secretary and treas
urer. The new company aims to Sc
cure from the manufacturers of all
sewing machines the exclusive right
to sell all their machines to the re-
tailers. The intention is to form a
sub-company IN every state. Con-
ferences have already been held with
various manufacturers and Mr..
Mack says he has assurances of a
kind which warrant the formation of
the company. The advantage
claimed for this new move is that it
will prevent the cutting of prices.

LONDON Nov 30.-Diagonally
opposite the famous Bunhill Fields
cemetery, famous as being the last
resting place of John Bunyon, Daniel
Defoe and George Fox, stands, at the
corner of Castle street and the city
road, a plain brick building, tenanted
by the officers of the Wesleyan confer
ence. Within it's walls are stored the
archives pertaining to Methodism
from the date May "a, 1873, when
Methodism, as history knows it, was
born. The vaults of the building are
stored with a mass of documents,
letters and unpublished sermons
which, for the past century and a
half have slowly but surely been
accumulating. It has remained for
Rev. Charles H. Keely, the secre-
tary of the Wesleyan conference, to
have made within the past few weeks
a most interesting literary discovery

the matter unearthed, is also of es-

NOT GUILTY OF MURDER.
Hyams Brothers Are Immediately
Rearrested for Conspiracy.

TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 30.-The
second trial of the brothers Harry
and Dallas Hyams, for the murder of
young Wells, the beneficiaries of
whose life insurance policies, aggre-
eating 100000, the Hyams ultimately
became, ended today in verdict of
not guilty. The judges charge was
throughout straight in favor of the
prisoners. and he dwelt strongly on
the theory of accident, as advanced
by the defense. The jury was out
but thirty-five minutes. The faces of
the prisoners instantly underwent an
entire transformation when the fore
man of the jury announced the ver-
dict. When Judge Ferguson told the
prisoners they were free they start
ed to leave the court room, but were
rearrested by Detective Cuddy on
the charge of conspiracy to defraud
the insurance companies in the case
of Martha Wells.

weeks ago Mr.. Keely had occasion
to visit the vaults in order to oversee
some slight repairs which were in
progress. This involved the shift
ing of a number of old volumes and
the emptying of a cupboard long
disused. To his surprise one of these
books upon being opened was found
to contain numerous manuscripts OF
poems and sermons, written in clear
and legible hand. Something in the
handwriting struck him as being in
some manner familiar. InVeSuga-
,tion followed, and thirteen more vol
umes were discovered. These, on be-
ing opened, were found to contain
manuscript works of Charles Wesley.
Nor was this ALL In the cupboard

were then waging.
UNPUBLISHED POEMS.
1t is of course so well known that
Charles Wesley was a Tory OF the
most pronounced and conservative
type. Unlike his brother John, who
had written open letters to Lord
North protesting against the car
rying on of a war against brave
people" Charles could see nothing
that the colonists deserved for their
rebellion but the awful wrath OF
God 1t is surmiSed that this bundle
of poems is the one which CharleS
Wesley sent to Rev. Thomas Jackson
when the latter was preparing his
s'Life of Wesley" Most of these
poems had never been published, al
though the number of books of po-
etry published by the brothers, sep
arately or in conjunction, is sixty
three. Prominent among these un-
published poems is one written in
17S0 and entitled American lnde-
pendence." AS one reads 1t is dill
cult to imagine that it's metaphor and
meter were composed by the same
man who also penned the immortal
and exquisite lyric, Jesus, Lover of
My Soul The poem, which is OF
great length, begins:
"Where is Old England's glory fled,
Which shone so bright in ages past!
Virtue with our forefathers died.,
And public faith has breathed its
last;
And men who falsified their trust
HaVR laid our houses in the DUST.
Our rulers have to rebels sued
|. And given us up into their hands,
Rapacious, prof1igate and lewd,
/ Obedient to our foes commands.
Z They serve our cause with frantic
zeal,
+ Factors of France and tools of hell. !"

In nominating Mr.. Crisp, Mr.. Rich

of the party. He said that he had
been selected to formally name one
