Rev. Edward Hale of Orange, \. j., with
which the third and last days session OF
the National Unitarian Conference was
opened This morning. four papers were
read by prominent delegates.
Rev. Howard \. Brown of Boston de-
fined the Holy Ghost as God made mani
TEST in the mind aud soul OF man, the
basis OF belief ia the Holy Spirit being
the consciousness and experience OF the
race.
Upon the subject of atouement, Rev
W. III. Pulsford OF Waltham, Mass, said
one hindrance TO high living was lack OF
clear Ideas aud OF nothing was this more
true than of the doctrine OF atonement.
In It's traditional form the doctrine may
be said 10 declare thar man OF nature was
wholly evil and under the wrath Of God,
that the sacrifice OF Jesus on the cross by
satisfying Gods anger enables him 10
forgive man.

Fredericks, Garcia and Smith, who have
gone the same route.
Young's crime was a commonplace.

with the outrage, and he himself is not

when he presented himself at ranch in
Monterey County IN the early part OF
1894. He was then tramp asking aims.

the ranch for some weeks.

Latestre foreman of the ranch. went TO
the town of San Ardo on business and
returned late in the afternoon. Young
secreted himself, and when Latestre
drove up shot him in the back. He then
robbed him of what money he had aud
escaped. Latestre lived day or two and
then died of his wound. Alter the crime
Young was pursued and captured in
King City. He was tried and convicted
at Salinas. He appealed TO the Supreme
Court, but the judgment OF the lower
court was affirmed and he was sentenced
to San Quentin to be hanged. To-mor-

with the stolid Indifference of his imme-
diate predecessors on the gallows.

some of General Wheaton's Wards Of
the Reservation.
DENVER, Oct. 24.-Brigadier General
Wheaton received a telegram to-day
from Major Randlette. who occupies the
dual position of commander of the mill
tary post at Duchesne, Utah, aud Indian
Agent for the Uintah and Ouray Utes,
stating that some of his wasds are away
from the reservation, hunting in Colo
rado without permission, and that he
will endeavor to persuade. them to re-
turn. Both the Army aud Interior De-
partments recognize the right of these
Indians to hunt in Colorado during the
lawful season, aa was stipulated in their
Iirst treaty. The treaty following the
Meeker massacre did not abrogate the
former treaty in this respect.
Governor Mcintyre understands the
case fully, and he will not permit Game
Warden Land to cause the arrest Of any
Indians unless they have violated the
State law in some particular. There Will
be no trouble at any time, as neither the
settlers nor the Indians care to provoke
hostlities. 1t is simply the annual agita-
tion to secure remedial legislation which
will keep the Utes out of the State.

passed quiet day up to O'Clock, when
a decided change for the worse became
apparent His pulse was almost un-
noticeable, and he sank into camatose

ministered, he became slightly delirious,
muttering in a feeble manner dlscon-
nected sentences.
AS the evening wore on he rallied. ana
conversed freely with his wife and rela-
tiyes. Mr.. Millard was conscious almost
at the moment of his death. AS the end
drew near ne seemed to realize his condl-
ton, and became most solicitous in ais
attention to his devoted wife. When he
began to sink, and her tears flooded his
face, he murmured, Don't, DON'T" and
in few moments all was over.
No arrangements have been made for
the funeral 1t has been decided that the

THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

1t VIII Probably he Held Either at
Chicago or PIttsburg.
NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-The Evening
Star says: 1t developed to-day, as result
Of the conference last night between Sem
stOr Quay, Mr.. Platt, General j. s. Clark
son and Chairman Carter Of the national
committee that the national convention
Of 1896 will be called about June 10th. The
convention city was not agreed on, but
Chicago or PittsDurg will be selected at
the meeting of the committee to be held
at the Arlington Hotel in Washington on
December 10TH
The rules of the national committee re-
quire six months notice of The time and
place of holding the national convention.
Senator Quay wanted the convention
held in May next, while Mr.. Platt wanted
it as late as July or August.
San Francisco has been making ex-
travRgant bids for the convention, and
has the pledges OF the Western mem bers
Of the committee To vote for that city. Al
the conference last night it was devel-
oped that seventeen members of the
committee favor holding the convention
in San Francisco. Twenty-Five votes are
necessary TO d choice. Senator Quay
wants the convention held in Plttsburg,
while MIR. Plat favOrs Chicago. 1t will
60 to one of these cities.
The sun says that the Republican pro-
Gramme now is to hold the National Re-
publican Convention either at Pittsburg
or Chicago somewhere between June 10
and 10, 1886. There Is an opportunity for
many shifts between now and then, but
1t is predicted now that no Ohio man Will
be nominated, and no man that was born
in Ohio and may ba living in another
State may be nominated. This is the
edict that went forth yesterday. and some
OF those who participated in the dinner
of the National Republican Committee
mon on " Wednesday night gave their rea-
sons. In the first place, they said that
Ohio and the Ohio idea had become alto
gether ridiculous, not only in the nation,
but in other communities, especially
New York City.
Ex-senator Plat believed that Chicago
should have the convention, because he
believes it to be the most central point
Chicago on the ground. as they said, that
Chicago has hitherto been the stamping
ground for Republican cliques that have
attempted TO dictate the candidates.
Moreover, some of the National Repub-
ioanS declared that the Chicago newspa-
pers had invariably treated the National
Republican Conventions in the most
shabby fashion.
The Hon. Chauncey I. Filley started
back to st. Louis yesterday. He had at
tempted to spring q boom for st. Louis
for the convention, but his breath was
taken away by the objections of his Re-
publican friends.

WASHINGTON, Oct 24.-Mrs. Leland
Stanford, who has been in Washington
for ten days, will leave for New York on
Tuesday. After brief stay in that city
she will visit her old home at Albany.
She will then make short trip TO the
principal cities of Canada, returning to
Washington bout the 1st of Decem Der,
where she proposes remaining some time
unless called to California by her private
interests. There is, so far as can be seen,
q strong desire on the part of the public
officers and others 10 secure ell early
hearing in the United States Supreme
Court of the case brought by the Govern
ment against her husbands estate. The
Importance of the result, which directly
affects the Leland Stanford Junior Uni
versity OF California, is such as TO make
its prompt hearing by the court a matter
of more than ordinary interest.
WASHIN GTON, Oct. 24.-Attorney-
General Harmon will ask the United
States Supreme Court to advance the
Stanford case so that arguments may be
heard about the lst OF January. If the
request is granted the preliminary work
will probably be finished before the mid
die of the month. If there be no radical
disagreements among the Justices which
would call for rehearing OF the case, q
decision may be rendered by the 1st of
February.

serves the right to purchase the railway
upon hereafter.
The Times remarks editorially upon
the startling character of the dispatch,
aud says it expects an official denial will
be made, but hints that such denial
may be ignored. Russia, il adds, cannot
possibly imagine that the other great
Powers will view with indifference an
enterprise which would constitute the
destruction OF the existing balance of
power, and which is almost unparalleled
In its audacity. Russia is well aware
that the magnitude OF the changes in the
movements now reported are such that
she could not carry them out unless she
had definitely resolved 10 abandon the
pacific policy OF the last reign and plunge
into vast and dangerous activities.

LOST HER RUDDER.
Accident to the American Line steam
ship st. Louis.

SOUTHAMPTON, Oct 24.-The Amer
lean Line steamship st. Louis, which
sailed from New York October 10th,
passed Prawle Point at O'Clock this
morning. She signaled that she had lost
her rudder and required the assistance OF
two tugs. Al noon she signaled that all
were well, ana that she expected TO ar
rive here at 4:30 D. IN. She wanted the
tugs TO meet her at The Needles.
The st. Louis was due here yesterday
morning. A close examination of the
damage reveals that it will require more
than a week TO repair it. The vessel will
therefore not be able to sail on her sS ed
ule time, and the Berlin will take her
place.
