don financial cablegram: The stock markets
were idle and of holiday character today,
but with a cheerful tone. Americans took
their cue this morning from the tone of the
Madrid cable dispatches and opened firm.
They remained above the parity until New
York prices were learned and then fell on
the reported bank failure in Chicago. They
rallied again at the close, which was good.
Spanish stocks were strong here and in
Paris. Mines were better. The Paris bourse
was steady, as also was the Berlin market,
where money Is easier.

FOREIGN CROPS.

LONDON, Dec 21.-The Mark Lane Ex-
press, referring today to crop prospects, says:
While the wheat is somewhat late in growth
this is no drawback for favorable growth
of the autumn sown wheat and rye is re-
ported from all the districts of Central
Europe but in France matters are not so
satisfactory. The weather in Russia is very
unsettled, frost and thaw regning in rapid
succession with bad effect on the autumn
sown grain. The Argentine crop is not
thought to be very large, but advices con-
fict. Foreign wheat does not sell well, even
at decline, and everybody expects an inert
trade until after Christmas and brisk bust
ness during the first fortnight Of January

On which assertion / wish TO remark that
Llorente's statistics have been shown by many
Protestant authors, among others by Prescott
and Ranke, to be most improbable. He pro-
fessed TO have had access to the Spanish state
papers, which he says he burned after using
them Does this look as If he were honest?
But supposing he was honest, we must remem-
ber that these 80, 900 executions were the
fruit of $50 years. We must rememb ber, too,
that the Inquisition had jurisdiction over
murder adultery and such kinds OF crime be-
sides heresy. How many of the $4,000 were
burned how many were executed tor heresy,
we cannot tell. Llorente destroyed the rec
ords
But grant the very worst that may be said
about it. and it would be hard to say anything
to show We are told by unquestioned histo-
rians that Henry VIII put TO death $4,000 per-
sons during his reign of twenty-eight years.
Hamiltons "History of Quarter Sessions from
Elizabeth to Anne" gives for the year 1898 800
executions in the forty English counties.
Mackay's Curious Superstitions' is authority
for the statement that under law passed
through the influence OF John Knox 1900
witches were burned in Scotland up TO the ac-
cession of James I. Between 1900 and 1880 40,-
600 supposed witches perished in England.
During the Long Parliament 5000 OF these I'M
fortunates were done away with
The crime of witchcratt was only one of
those which came before the Inquisiticn. Let
US compare Lloren te's 80, 900 executions in $50
years for heresy, murder, witchcraft, adultery,
etc., with the 10000 English witches IN 80
years, and we may well say that bad as the in

purity, the love of man, trust in God, the prac-
tlce OF righteousness and the simple piety or
tne neart-these are the only tests, the only
possible terms of fellowship. Do you tell me
these? l answer, it is.in these things that the
very essence of Christianity consists. 1t is
lhese moral and devout elements IN the re-
iiglon OF Jesus which have made 1T the power
~ is IN the world in spite of the distortions II
has received at the hands of doctrinaires and
eccleslaSt1cs. If ever there is TO be union OF
Cnrlstians all the world over it must be on the
OASIS or Christ's life and not mere opinions
likeness to Christ-this is the only way of
union, ana II you tell me that this is Il plat
1orm proad enough to hold the Buddhist, the
Jew, the Mahometan and the agnostic reply,
"Gou pc thanked all the more.''
Christianity was intended to be world reli-
gaon and 1t never can become such while it sets
up petty barriers TO shut out the world and
1orgets that while there may be diversity of
glIts ana operations-varieties of thought and
Worsnlp-there is one and the self-same spirit
In all All alike, pagan and Christian, Jew
ana Gent1le, Catholic and Protestant, ortho-
ooX ana liberal, are Gods children, the recipi-
ems OF his bounty, the objects of his love and
nifty.
:. II was in this spirit that the Unitarian Ma
tlonal conference at Saratoga adopted the fol-
loWlng and offered it to the Christian world as
an all-sufhcient basis OF Christian union:
Inese churches accept the religion OF Jesus,
noiulng, In accordance with his teaching, that
and love to man
and we invite TO our working fellowship
any VINO, whlfe differing from us in belief are
practical aims
May other Christian bodies adopt similar
platforms until we all come into ''the unity of

Bryan on Pensions.

Mr.. Bryan's language in his Albany
speech, about the old soldiers and the
free coinage Of silver, should be read
carefully by the 100000 pensioners who
look to the federal government for
part or the whole of their support:
81 notice that one of our opponents
the other day said that the old soldiers
would be opposed 10 free coinage. They
gave the impression that the financiers
are very much interested in maintain
ing gold standard for the benefit of
the soldiers. But, my friends, these
men forget that all of the old soldiers
lived during the war. and that during
the war the soldiers knew that the
financiers made their bonds payable in
gold, and left the soldier to offer his life
upon the battlefield. More than that,
do not believe that the soldiers who are
willing to offer their lives, if need be,
in behalf of their country are today 60
ing to join in conspiracy to enslaye
70,000000 of free people by lettering
them to gold standard"
Mr.. Bryan's language here is as dem
agogic and as carefully intended to stir
up 'class'' hatred as is habitual With
him and 1t is even more devoid of
sense The conspiracy to enslave mil.
lions of free people, exists in Mr..
Bryan's mind and some other recepta.
cles of invented facts and emotional
language. The $4,000 pensioners can
see with their own eyes the attempt
now making by Mr. Bryan and his
friends to scale down pensions by max.
ing them payable in debased money
