Many political speakers, clergy

Cnitarion church this morning, and DR.
Lansing Burrows, secretary OF the con-
vention, held services Tonight in the jew
ish synagogue. The filling of the pulpits
in unOrthodOX churches hitherto not reCog-
nized by the Baptists as Christian denom-
nations, is without precedent in the his
tory Of the southern Baptist convention.
The leading pulpits OF the city We're
filled as follows:
First Bapust-B. II. Carroll Of Texas.
and w. w. Landrum of Virginia.
Centenary Methodist-W. L. Plckard Of

T. Whitman, at the First Methodist, drew
the largest crowds.
A sunday school mass meeting was held
in the First Baptist church this after

sty of Chicago.

Indiansfrom Indian Territory in the In
dian language.

sionary, late returned from Canton,
China.
An address followed by Rev A. G.
Washburn a half-breed Cherokee Indian
engaged in mission work in the Indian
Territory. He spoke of the work among
his people, and captured the audience by
his earnest and forcible words.
The appearance of DIR. A. J. Diaz was
with which his recital was frequently
punctuated. He told IN glowing though
simple and broken language, of the OBJ
stacles thrown in the way of the Protest
ant missionaries of the island and his
final imprisonment without charge.
At the same hour the WOmans Mission
airy Union held a missionary reunion in
the First Presbyterian church, which was

THIS WEEK N coxGREss.
Appropriation Bills to Have the CaII
In the senate.


Washington. May 10.-There are two con-
tested election eases that win probably
come up In the House during the week.
Murray. rep, VS.. Euibtt. dem. from The
First district Of South Carolina, ana
Rnaker. rep, VS. Downing. dem, from
the Sixteenth district OF Illinois. Both
will be vigorously contested.
The committees on immigration. ana
naturalization and interstate commerce
are each pressing for time Ia which 70
present some measures passed by them,
notably the bills regarding the admission
ot immigrants. But Il Is hardly possible
that they or either OF them VIII get he
floor this week.
The determination OF the Senate COM
mittee on appropriations is TO keep thar
body constantly at the consideration OF
those measures during the week that
opens tomorrow, save such matters as
nave been heretofore agreed upon.
Mr.. Frye hopes that the river and har-
bor bill Will be finished tomorrow, but
IN this he may be disappointed. Mr. Frye
VIII speak IN favor of the action of the
committee IN appropriatiug upward OF
100000 under the contract system for
the Improvement Of the harhor of Santa
Monica, Cal. This speech may call form
a reply from Senator White.
Mr.. German has also Indicated his in
tention of Offering an amendment making
a horizontal reduction In all appropria-
lions that exceed 100000 This will In all
pfobapilty, precipitate some discussion.
According to the agreement made some
days ago, the two days Immediately fol-
lowing the passage OF the river and har-
bor bill are TO be devoted TO the Dupont
election case, with the understanding
that al O'Clock on the second day the
vote is 20 be taken. The whole time may
not be consumed In debating this case
and few speeches on general subjects
may be delivered. Mr.. Nelson Of Msnne-
sofa, and Mr. Gibson of Maryland, have
speeches ready TO deliver on the immi-
grafton question, and they may find time
70 address the Senate during these two
days.
The District Of Columbia bill win be
called up as soon as the Dupont case IS
out Of the road. This will probably con-
sumo the remainder Of the week, much
OF the debate, doubtless. growing out Of
the appropriations for the charities, over

the House. The, Senate has restored all
the Items for this purpose stricken out

the policy pursued by the House are not
so numerous IN the Senate, the action ot
the committee will cause a number OF
protests, at least to be raised. The fortif-
cations pin viii be reported by the end Of
the week.
Mr.. Allison expects to see all OF the
appropriation bills passed by May 20
and Will make every effort to accom-
plish such result.
