in Minneapolis a year ago this month,
q 0 was passed by the houses<
u bishops n deputies creating two
additional missionary bishoprics for the

the denomination assembled his morn

Presiding Bishop Williams of Cinc.n-

considering the election of two addi-

election Of Bishop William David Walk

other jurisdiction to be filed by the
house of bishops. No action will be

that 1t will be several months before
Bishop Walker is translated to his new
diocese. 1t is understood that George
Vanderbilt has provided the needful
funds for the proper support of the

PILED DYING WITH DEAD,
sickening Scenes During the Ar le.
nian Massucrcs in Turkey.

New York, Oct. 20.-Madji Rahsian is
q. Christian Turk, who was one of the
passengers on board La Gascogne. He
comes to this country on a business
trip. Through an Interpreter he told
about the massacres of Armenians. He
was in Consiantinep,e during the three
days massacre in August last. During
the three days 10000 Armenians. re
said, were slaughtered throughout the
empire. Wagons filed with bodies were
constantly passing through the streets
in Constantinople. Cart load after art
load of these bodies were dumped into
the sea. The sight was a sickening one.
and what added to its horror was the
TACT that In those wagons We're pied the
dead and dying. n the feeble cries OF
the wounded for release could be heard
coming from the carts. but the appeals
were utterly UNDECIDED. Whether killed
or wounded, all were thrown into the
sea. Mr.. Rlhsian says Europeans have
not been mo.este1 up to date. He added
that they are leaving Constanttnople,
fearing that they may be attacked.

~Snccnlntors Soared

London. Oct. 2O.-The financial article
In the Times says:
The receipt Of the cable advices from
america giving the price of wheat
caused a scene almost of CONSERVATION
on the exchange. such as is not usually
seen, except in war times. a large
business was done, California selling
36s per quarter; maze and barley were
also in brisk demand. The rise appears
to be due to the sales of American
wheat for India. which frightened the
spectators a coed deal. Cautious obs
servers think the rise OF IS per quarter
for the week fully discounts the effect
OF the abnormal demand.
