Eloquenoe Of DR.. Stewart Of Harrisburg
Carried the Day.

Christian Endeavor won victory In the
Presbyterian general assembly. Its friends
eliminated most OF the report Of the commit
go and discharged that body The sum
total OF the assemby's action comprised the
adoption OF "a statement OF relations be-
tween individual societies and churches
which was directed to be read In the vari-
Gus societies, andof q provision for the col
lection OF Christian Endeavor statistics.
Provisions were also made for a committee
OF Ave to report on the brotherhood Of An
drew and Philip and on Boys brigades.
This victory Is largely due to the eloquence
OF two Pennsylvanians. led by DR.. George b.
Stewart, OF Harrisburg, who made the prin-
cipal speech. He cOntended that tho So
cieties desired ecclesiastical recognition In
the sense OF u right to exist In the church
and to manage their own affairs, subject
only to the church session.
Elder Sheppard, OF Philadelphia, moved
to strike out a section, and It was carried
with applause. The clause provided for

AN ALABAMA POPULIST
Offers Resolutions Impssching the Prssi-
dent Of High Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Mr.. Howard, pop, Ala.), the author OF
'If Christ Came TO Congress" at the open
ing session of the House Saturday, sprang a
sensation, but II was short-lived. The House,
with practical unanimity, suppressed him.
As soon as the journal had been read, Mr..
Howard, whose seat Is In remote corner OF
the hall, arose dramatically In the center
aisle and fiourishing paper in his hand de-
manded to be heard on the resolution which
he sent to the clerks desk. The resolution
was as follows;
II do impeach Grover Cleveland, presi-
dent Of the United States, of high crimes and
misdemeanors on the following grounds:
1. That he has sold or directed the sale
OF bonds without authority OF law.
2. That he sold, or aided In the sale Of,
bonds at less than their market value.
3. That he directed the misappropriation
OF the proceeds OF said bond sales.
4. That he directed the secretary OF the
treasury to disregard the law which makes
United States notes redeemable In coin
8. That he has ignored and refused to
have cnfored the "anti-trust law"
8. That he has sent United States troops
into the state of Illinois without authority
OF law and in violation Of the contitution.
Z. That he has corrupted politics through
the interference Of federal off1ceholders.
3. That he has used the appointing power
to influence legislation detrimental to the
welfare of the people therefore. be II
Resolved, by the house OF representatives,
That the committee on the judiciary be dir
ected to ascertain whether these charges are
true and II so to report to the house such
action by impeachment or otherwise, as
shall be proper in the premises And said
committee shall have authority to send for
persons and papers.
When the clerk ceased reading Mr.. How.
ard, who had risen to address the house was
suddenly taken Off the floor by Mr.. Dingley.
the floor lehder Of the majority, who raised
the question of consideration against the
resolution. The question was promptly put
by the speaker, and by a practically unani-
nous vote the house refused to give Mr..
Howard a hearing.
The house then settled down to dull
routine

BOLTERS IN CONVENTION.
Broad Gaugers and Woman's suffragists
Form New Party.

About 800 people attended the Broad
gathering after the close OF the convention In
the Art gallery. over which A. L. Moore, Of
Michigan. presided. The meeting was not OF
one mind, many calling for the formation OF
a new party to be known as the Union Re-
form party, but fully as many urging that
nothing be done, and that they attend the
convention In the evening and fight to the
last, after which they would be better able
to take the wisest steps. The women de-
clared they had been insulted, and the West
ern delegates that all had been kicked out OF
the convention. Dickie and Wardwell were
maigned as assassins OF the party.
From the close OF the afternoon session un-
til the opening Of the evening session, the
floor and rooms Of the hall were crowded
with delegates In the angriest moods, loudly
crying against the action OF the Narrows and

the convention their intention to stand by

them In the back.

and organize a convention OF their own. The

A FAMILY BUTCHEREp.
A Man Kills His Wife, Her Parents, and
Three Other People.

At the village OF Campbell, six miles from
San Jose, Cal, Col r. ?. McGlinchy and

this city, and word was telephoned to officers
In all parts OF the country to be on the out

SILVER PARTY'S APPEAL.
Chairman Mott Urges Friends Of the White
Metal to Renewed Effort.

The national silver party, through its
chairman, ]. J. Mott, issued from its head
quarters In Washington an address to the
friends of silver. This address recites that
since the founding of the national silver
party, on January %, the work Of organi.
zation has been steadily but quietly pursued
and the country aroused to pitch OF excite
ment unknown since the civil war. II de-
clares that the secret of success In the pend
ing conflict consists of lining up for the
battle, and that the convention OF the party
to be held In ". Louis on July % will un-
doubtedly be one of the most important con-
ventions and notable gatherings ever assem-
bled In this country.
Upon the wisdom of its acts and that Of
the Peoples party convention, to be held at
the same place and time, depends, the ad-
dress declares, "the vital question as to
whether we can have just settlement of the
money issue of our generation"
The friends of the party are urged to push
the work Of organization with all possible
vigor, the purpose being to unite for action
all believers in the restoration of free silver
and prosperity" The address concludes as
follows:
"The Republican party Is committed to the
gold standard through the platform of 80
per cent of the state conventions and any
straddle that may be made in its national
platform will deceive no one. The Demo-
cratic party must not expect the country to
accept any candidate 1t may name acquiesced
In by the gold wing of that party.
"The question of vital Importance Is for
silver men to name a candidate for president
whose nomination will be readily acquiesced
in by all believers in monetary reform.
"Friends of silver, look to your interests,
and organize now, while the fruit is ripe for
plucking. Do not wait ON the problematical
action of any party"

A FESTAl BOARD Of DEATH
HORROR IN MOSCOW.
Over 1000 Persons Killed at the Csar's
Popular Fete.

In mad rush to get free food, beer, gifts
and amusements, offered to the populace by
the Gar in honor Of his coronation, thous-
ands of Russians of the lower classes were
trampled under foot by many more thous-
ands OF their fellows, and hundreds were
killed. The loss OF life exceeds 900 and the
injured number several thousand. The Car
ordered that 1000 roubles be paid each
family that has lost a member through the
catastrophe. In addition, the State will
pay the the expenses Of burying the Dead
while the physicians at the hospitals and else
where have been instructed to spare nothing
to alleviate the sufferings of the injured.
Although the official report places the
number OF dead at 1,136, It Is probable that
the exact number Of victims will never be
known. The vice-mayor reckons that I, 1886
persons were killed and 2s6 fatally injured.
The official accounts do not include many
dead and injured who were removed by
friends.
At the vegankofrsky cemetery alone the
number Of dead exceeded the official figures,
1882 bodies being there Thirty bodies were
found In an old disused we'll In the middle OF
the Hoydynsky plain. The well had been
covered with planks, which collapsed when
bedies In the well were two living persons
who had been made insane by the horror of
their position. Their rawlings when rescued
we're terrible to hear.
Saturday was appointed the great national
fete day and 100000 people had gathered on
the khodii inskoje plain to attend the great
free feast given them by the newly-crowned
czar A stampede started and 1000 people,
more or less, were trampled to death, while
fully as great number were mangled and

The path OF the storm was between half
and three fourths OF mile wide, and ex-
tended in nearly straight course eastward
for over distance OF thirty miles. A re-
markable circumstance is that buildings In
close proximity to each other were blown IN
opposite directions, some being swept north
and some south.

PLANS OF THE GATHERING.
They Include Methods Not Used at Oths
Places.

It seems to be assured that the Christian
Endeavor convention, which is to be held in
Washington City within two months, will be,
so far as human preparations can make it,
the greatest gathering of the kind ever held.
The convention will be notable for the
number of new features In the programme.
and the number, extent and character of
these enlargements are remarkable. They
will have a large part in influencing the
character Of the convention and In deepen
ing its spiritual effect. More than has beeu
the case at all prior annual Christian En-
deayor gatherings, everything possible will
be done this year to secure spiritual profit
from the convention and to extend practical
evangelistic effort. These twin thoughts,
spirituality and evangelism, will be manifest
cd from the very beginning of the meetings.
For the preliminary and preparatory services
Wednesday evening, July 8, the general sub
ject is 1.-The Deepening OF Spiritual Life,
and concluding each meeting will be held

INDIAN MOUNDS OPENED.
Several Skeletons Found in One. People
With Small Brain,

Warren X. Moorehead and W. c. O'Kane,
curators of the Ohio Archaeological Society,
have spent several days in the vicinity of
Coshocton, searching for relics of a prehis-
torical race, whose mounds dot the Muskin-
gum Valley and its tributaries. One large
mound on the farm of John Ponteus was
opened and developed a quantity Of charcoal
and bone. In a smaller mound five skele-
tons were found.
The skeletons unearthed show that these
people were shorter in stature and Of a
heavier and more muscular build than the
average people OF to-day. The skull is even
thicker than that Of the negro, low facial
angles, prominent jaws, magnificent teeth,
but very small brain capacity.
A small mound In the vicinity OF Wal
honding was opened and here was found
the skeleton OF man. Just above him In
the soil were found about 10 flint arrow
heads artistically wrought.
A mound on the johnson farm about nine
feet high was also opened and here were
found arrow heads. flint scalping knives and
u stone, which 1t is thought was used fol-
playing games.
