LIBERAL DELICIOUS CONGRESS.

Ddrid Starr Jordan Among Those
Chosen Directors.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Nov. 19.-At to-
days session of the American Liberal
Religions Congress, a proposition was
made to change the name Of the congress
from American Congress of Liberal
Religions to Liberal Congress of Relig-
ions.' There was much objection to
this modification of the word Liberal
butit was decided to change the name to
Liberal Religious Congress"
The discussion of the question as to
whether the congress should do missionary
work, in the ordinary acceptance of that
term, resulted in decision to confne the
congress to the parliamentary idea. Local
organizations will be encouraged and even
assisted, but not under the supervision Of
the congress. Hiram w. Thomas was re-
elected president of the congress, and
Jenkln Lloyd Jones was reelected sec
retary. Leo Fox was again chosen treas
urer. The three men are all from Chicago.
Those elected vice-presidents are: 7. w.
Higgins, b. G. Hirsch, A. ]. Savage, r.
h. Newton and Professor Momerie.
Among the new directors chosen are David
Starr Jordan, president of Stanford Uni
versiiy, California. and Edwin S. Mead.
The next congress will be held at Nash
vile next year during the Tennessee GEN.
tennial celebration. An attempt will be
made to raise $500 to carry out the project
OF making the Nashville congress an
unusually successful one. This congress
adjourned this evening.

MOSES THATCHER EXPELLED.
The Mormon Apostle Excommunicated for
Seeking Election to the United
States Senate.

SALT LAKE. UTAH. Nov. 10. Hon.
Moses Thatcher. candidate for the United
States Senate. who incurred the displeas-
. ure OF the high officials OF the Mormon
church FOR running for a public office
without their permission. was tried to-day
by the church dignitaries for insubordina-
ton and refusing to hesrken to the voice
of the church authorities. Mr. Thatcher
was not present and ignored the whole
proceedings, and the ten apostles who
were his judges unanimously decided that
Thatcher be severed from the council of
the twelve apostles and that he be de-
prived of his apostleship and other offices
in the priesthood, and a public notice to
that effect was published this afternoon in
the Deseret News, the official organ of the
church. The News and the church of
hcials keep up their opposition TO the
election of Thatcher to the Senate on the
ground that his candidacy is based on his
opposition to the church and that his elec-
tion would be a reward for opposing the
church IN exercising authority over its
members, which in the eyes OF the Nor
mon church dignitaries is a heinous
offense.

SEATTLE, WASH, Nov. 19.-Two days
California mail, the first since Saturday,
was received in this city to-day via the
steamer Kingston from Tacoma. The
railroads are still badly crippled by reason
OF the floods. 1t will probably be several
days before connection can be made from
Seattle with the Northern Pacific main
line at Puyallup. The Great Northern
announces that it will have its coast line In
operation tomorrow or the day after and
that an effort will probably be made on
Sunday to resume passenger traffic over
the main line East.
The passengers hemmed in for so long
on the Great Northern between Yelling
ton and Madison, it Is stated, have been
rescued, and are now making their way
back to Spokane and on to Seattle over
the Northern Pacific, via Tacoma.
Lumbermen of this city say that 90 per
cent of the shingle bolts cut in Northwest
ern Washington have been swept down
the various rivers and out to sea, and
from 100000 to 5000, 600 feet of logs
driven through the booms and sent the
same way. Probably one-third of the logs
will be recovered from the sound, but
millmen believe it will not be possible to
save any of the shingle bolts

father, William Freeman, and her brother,
Dawson freeman, all well-known resi-
dents of Masontown, has caused a great
sensation in Fayette County. Miss Free
man was arrested yesterday and is in Jail

fessed to the physician that she had mur-
dered the child and that Rev. Mr.. Fitz-

Portland Merchants Bid for
Trade With the
Antipodes.
Have Chartered a Steamer to Be
Sent There With a Very
Choice Cargo.
New Line PrPj ctsd, as SIN Francisco
Has Difficulty in Handling
Their Freight.

PORTLAND, Or, Nov. 19.-An event
of unusual importance TO this city and the
entire Northwest will occur next month,
when steamship loaded with Oregon
products will leave Portland for Aus.
tralia. The promoters of the new enter
prise are Davidge & Co., agents of the
Oregon-Asiatic Steamship Company. The
steamer they have secured for the first
trip is the Aswanly, modern vessel of
3535 tons gross register, with a carrying
capacity of 5140 tons.
While the matter of making an expert
ment in this trade has been under con-
sideration but short time, the promoters
have had no difficulty in securing a large
cargo. If their efforts should meet with
encouragement regular line will be in
operation early in the year. There is a
large amount OF products of Oregon and
Washington now sent to the Antipodes by
way of San Francisco, and this trade has
grown to such proportions that steamers
sailing from the Bay City have difficulty
in handling all of the freight offered.
Oregon produces good deal of fruit, lum-
Der, -four and other truck of similar
nature that finds ready market in Aus
traIia. With proper encouragement the
new steamship venture is sure to be a
great aid in developing a Northwest.
Pacific trade with that country.
The Aswanly will leave about the mid.
die of December, and if merchants are in
terested in securing more trade from that
country there will be plenty of steamships
placed in service to follow the pioneer.
The steamship is now en- route to this
port from Hiogo.

ATTEMPrED SUICIDE.

Turns on the Gas and Tokes Morphine,
bat Not AItotced TO Die.
SAN JOSE, CAL, Nov. ia man about
80 years OF age. who on last Saturday
registered at the st. James Hotel as George
Warner OF San Francisco. attempted to
commit suicide this evening by asphyxia-
tion and an overdose OF morphine. Warner
made careful preparation for the deed by
stopping up all the air passages to his
room, taking the morphine and then going
to bed and placing a rubber tube attached
to the gasjet TO has mouth.
His plans were, however, frustrated by
the customs of the management of the
hotel who did not turn on the gas in his
building until almost dark and after the
morphine had taken effect. The escaping
gas was detected by the attaches of the
house, who forced open the door and after
hours of labor resuscitated the would be
suicide. 1t is though ht that Warner is an
assumed name, as the man destroyed all
possible means of identification except an
Odd Fellows button in his coat. He is
tall in stature, has clean shaven face and
Grecian features. He will recover.

Ten Hold-Ups in One Night in

Different Parts of the
City.
The Ubiquitous Tall Masked Man,
With Gun and Knife, Causes
CONSERVATION.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Nov. 19.-Citizens
of Vancouver, B. O., have been terrorized
for months by gang OF burglars and
sneakthieves, from which they have only
recently been relieved by the adoption of
vigorous methods on the part of the po-
lice officials and the ordering out OF town
of every ''vag" upon whom they could lay
their hands. Now they are being visited
by an even more dangerous phase OF ter
rorism, carried out by masked highway
men, who. with revolver and knife, way
lay pedestrians on their way home at
night or early in the morning.
One night this week ten men were held
up in different parts of the city and made
to stand and deliver to their assailant all
the loose change they had on them.
A party of four well-known citizens pass
ing about midnight on one OF the most
central streets, were suddenly pounced
upon by tall man wearing mask, who,
with knife and revolver, ordered them
to produce their money, and having
obeyed were ordered to proceed on their
way.
Last night two musicians. on their way
home from performing in the orchestra at
the theater, were met by the same indi-
vidual, according TO the description, and
relieved of several dollars of loose change.
From miner the sum of $40 was secured,
and an Italian who had courage enough 20
resist the demands made upon him by his
assailant. was shot twice, and is now lying
in the hospital in dangerous condition.
The Italian says that when he refused
to pay up the highwayman threatened
him and he grappled with the unknown,
who promptly fired at him twice and
leaving him PROSTATE on the ground
departed, cursing the unfortunate man.
The people here are becoming seriously
alarmed, and unless vigorous steps are
taken by the police to meet this new
emergency vigilance committee. which
was spoken OF during the burglar scare,
will probably be resorted to.
The tall highwayman WAS quite jocular
with some of his victims, informing them
that he was broke and took this means of
obtaining living, assuring them that if
they would give him their names and
addresses he would certainly return the
money some time.
