Gambling in India.

Amongst the IIindoos throughout the whole of India there is holiday celebration in honor of Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and good fortune, whereon gambling is universally re- garded as religious duty. It is known as the festival of lamps, and on that day all classes indulge in games of chance with shells, coins, cards, dice, etc., and the future of the individual, whether good or bad, is looked upon as a forecast of his wealth or poverty during the en- suing year. The women take a most in tense interest in the proceedings and, if fortunate, eXpend their winnings in the purchase of sweet-meats and fruits, as gifts to all their friends and rela- tions, toys for the small children and fireworks for the boys. At Benares. their sacred city, as night approaches, small earthen lamps, fed with oil, are kindled, making the outlines of every mansion, palace, temple and minaret visible All vessels in the river are also Illuminated; so that the whole city is one blaze of light.

THE BATTLE OF THE CREED.

The 109th session of the General Session of
the Presbyterian Church, which begins at Sara
togs to-day. will reopen the old fight over the
Westminster Confession, with n struggle for
the election of a Moderator. There are four
candidates for the position, each supported
by faction representing different views as
to the attitude the Church should assume.
The Rev. DR.. David r. Breed, Pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church of Pittsburg. is
Conservative of the Conservatives, and leader
among the opponents of DIR. Briggs. 1t is
expected that in the end the strictly orthodox
forces will all mass on him. The leader of the
Liberals is the Rev. DIR. John l.. Withrow,
Pastor of the Third Presbyterian Church of
Chicago, and who is backed by the Interior
He is very popular man. and the Coaserva-
tiyes fear him. The Western Conservatives
favor tho Rev. DR.. Frank c. Montford. editor
of the Herald and PresJyter, of Cincinnati. and
the Rev. DIR. Thos L. Sexton, of Seward, Neb..
has large Liberal following A very lively
fight is promised on tho Moderator aud several
other questions, and when Presbyterians prom
Use lively fight it can be relied on to come off
according to program. We have the experience
of about 800 years for that. Since the days of
Calvin the Presbyterians have put up about
the prettiest fights, in State, Church, and On
the battlefield, that the world has seen.

Coming Immediately upon the severe drain
of resources caused by the Cuban rebellion. the
Spanish people have now to face the prospects
of an almost total loss OF the wheat crop, caused
by drought and insects. United States Consul
Burke at Malaga, writes to the State Depart
ment that new insect pest. destructive to
wheat as the phylloxera is to the grape. has
ravaged the crops in several Provinces. while,
owing to Il severe drought, not only will the
entire wheat crop be total failure. but there
will be shortage OF every other crop OF grain.
The poor are suffering much and unless the
rain comes. the wine and fruit crop viii be-
come total loss and great suffering and vans
will prevail throUgh0gt the whole country.
Efforts will be made TO have the Governments
reduce or remove the import grain duties, and
heavy imports muss be made during the cur
rent year.

THE CUBAN SITUATION.

The Spanish position in Cuba has
grown more desperate within the past
week. Gen. Weylers famous trocha !"
across the island at its narrowest point
does not seem to disturb the Cubans at
all. 1t consists Of line-20 miles long
of little forts, connected with barbed-
wire fences, and manned by $4,000 men.
These hardly seem to dare to move out
side their works. Occasionally cool
umns" of 1900 men move out short
distance, when they find the Cubans,
have brief skirmish with them, and re-
tire. sending out reports of brilliant
victory. All the while the Cuban
General Maceo is lying with $1,000
men within three miles Of the trocha +"
on the west. The concentration Of the
Spaniards upon it gives him entire free
dom in reducing the western part of the
island to entire possession. He can
break the "trocha " at any time that he
chooses, without help from his COM
patriots who are on the. other side, but it
suits him better to have it maintained,
and that many Spanish troops neutral
lied.
In the meanwhile Weyler and his
subordinate commanders are industri-
ously filling their pockets and abusing
one another. They seem to feel that
this is their last opportunity for pluck
ing the Cubans, and they are taking
everything in sight. There are no more
corrupt army officers in the world than
the Spaniards. They 60 into the army
for the express purpose of getting rich,
and the higher officers always succeed.
Gen. Weyler blames. the commanders of
columns for their blundering and cow
ardice, and they blame him for his in
capacity.
All the news from the island has a
dismal burden of Spanish astrocities COM
mitted on Cubans, unarmed men, women
and children beingsshot down or hacked
to death by machetes. 1t is not war,
but organized murder. Weyler's cruel
ties have had the effect of forcing the
whole native population into an attitude
of active resistance. The sons of the
best families on the island are placing
themselves at the head of bands of in
surgents. There is no other choice for
them.
Last week Senator Morgan made
telling speech in the Senate in favor of
the recognition of Cuban belligerency.

MAI. MCKINLEY THE MAN.

1t seems now that nothing can prevent
the nomination of Maj. Mckinley at St.
Louis BY reclamation. 1t is one of the
great uprisings of the people, which
dumbfound the politicians, as was the
case when Lincoln and Grant were
nominated. Maj. Mckinley is the man
TO fill the popular heart at this moment.
He stands as the one most conspicuously
opposed to everything represented by
the present Administration. He is less
politician than a representative OF the
plain people of the country. He has no
machine" and has never had one, bat
has relied for SUCCESS upon his direct
utilization with the people. He is clean,
able, and honest in a conspicuous de-
gree, and the fercest light that can be
turned upon him does not develop
weak spot anywhere.
All the Republican State Conventions
have now been held, and the most con-
sentative estimate gives the following
