A Permanent Breach.

New York, March THE antagonlsIn
to English domination in the affairs of
the Salvation Army in this country has
at last taken definite shape. The threat
ened split in the organization is an &C.
complished fact, and the new faction,
which is forming under the leadership of
Ballington Booth and Mrs. Maud Booth
has secured place for it's national head
quarters at present in rooms Nos. 11e. III
and 11s Bible House. They will take
possession at once and be there hence
forth.
The new organization is to have a new
name and a new uniform, concerning
which nothing has yet been defnitely
decided, except that the distinctive dress
of the new organization is to have no
touch of rad about it. Three corps in
this city and seven outside, embracing
1900 members in all, have thus far sig
nified their intention to follow the new
call Others will, no doubt. join.
Their first public meeting will be held
Sunday night.

Miss Barton's Hopes.

London, March THE correspondent
of the United Press in Constantinople
confirms the telegram which he sent
stating that while the Turkish foreign
minister has renewed in the presence
of Miss Clara Barton, president Of the
American Red Cross Society, the prom
Use to permit he distributors of relief to
go to Antolia, the necessary trades ara
still withheld by order of the Sultan,
though it is expected they will be speed
lily delivered. In the meantime, while
awaiting the trades, Miss Barton will be
able to do much necessary work. The
start of the Rev. Geo. P. Knapp the
American missionary at Bitlis, with his
family to Constantinople, has been de-
layed until April, owing to the fact that
the southern ronte is dangerous and
impraotioable in consequence of the heavy
SHOWS and from other causes. Mr.. Knapp
is the missionary whose arrest was or
dered by the Porte upon charges of sedit-
ion, and will come to Constantinople to
be examined by United States Minister
Terrell in regard to the charges.

One House Stood it,
The Venezuelan Blue Book.

London, March THE Manchester
Guardian commenting on the Venezuelan
blue book says:
"The report will require much expert
examination. 1t is evident that the
British case is str ong and there is. there
fore, the more reason for submitting it
to suitable body, perhaps the American
boundary commission. with some addit-
IONS"
The Westminster Gazette says: "The
contents of the Blue Book do not pre-
cluds negotiations upon the subjects OF
the dispute"
"The historical and geographical
claim is the strongest possible; but we
delude ourselves If we suppose that a
settlement has been virtually reached by
the publication of these elaborate and ex-
haustive books"
The Globe says:
"ThouRh the British case has thus
been brought into court, it is profound
mistake to assume that it will be SUBJ
mitted formally or informally to the
American government Great Britain
has never recognized any American tri-
bunal end jurisdiction whatever in the
matter and neverwill.

Declare 1t No Election.

Washington, March THE House cleo
tions committee, No. 2, today decided
that no election had occurred in the
Fifth Louisiana district, now represented
by MI. Boatner, the practical effect OF
which is to declare the seat vacant. The
conclusion reached by the committee was
that there had been so much fraud, vic.
lence and intimidauing at the polls as
to invalidate the election. In other words
they found that there had been no free
expression of the popular will as shown
by the evidence. There will be two re-
ports, the majority. signed by The Re.

SHOULD HAVE SHOT.
The Sensational Close of "a Western
Divorce Suit.

Kansas City, March 7.-As the Phillips
divorce case terminated in the circuit
court in this city today, the spectators
were astonished to hear Judge W. J.
Henry reproye the defendant Balling
A. Phillips, for not using gun to de-
fend his honor. Thereupon the plaintiff,
Mrs. Hettie B. Phillips, tainted and
was carried from the room. The defen-
dant Balling A. Phillips, was shown to
be the injured party and was given the
decree. In giving his decision Judge
Henry, ex-ju dge of the state supreme
court, said: "The only fault l can find
with you, Mr.. Phillips, ia that you have
been too much inclined to leniency If
you had taken shot gun and vindicated
the honor of your home, you would stand
better before this court and in the com
munity.''

YALE TRIALS.
How Athletes Stood Against Each Other
and Their Records

New Haven, March THE animal
meeting of the Yale Track Association
was held tonight at the Second Regiment
armory and was the most brilliant in
years. Fast time and long distances
were made in every event. The cham
pion, Sweeney, in the high jump, Connect.
In the mile run, and Liebgold in the
mile walk, gave exhibitions, Connect tax
ing the mile run and Liebgold the walk
with ease. Sweeney cleared the bar at
six feet two inches, graceful try
against his own record Of six feet three
inches.
f. Boardman, Yale unknown, fur
nished the surprise of the evening by a
wonderful burst of speed that won the
half mile, and P. Van Igen, another Yale
novice, defeated fast field and took
the 80 yards hurdle. No records were
broken. About 1900 people witnessed the
games. Much dissatisfaction was ex-
pressed because the pistol was fred before
Dadmun, the Worcester crack, took his
place in the half mile. The Boston Ath-
letic Association and the University OF
Pennsylvania athletes made a good
showing. None of them took the first
prize except Hopkins of Boston, in the
shot-put. Bennett of Boston was second
in the half mile run.

One of the first appropriations that
will be urged upon the new city govern
ment will be that for completing the
armory drill shed. 1t Is proposed to
make this structure Of such proportions
and so arrange 1t inside with hardwood
floor and gallery that 1t will be useful
for exhibition purposes, mass meetings,
large balls and similar affairs. Military
men who have been consulted about this
matter favor this plan.
An attempt was made recently to in
duce the Augusta company of the Nation
al Guard to agree to being transferred
from the First to tho Second regiment
but it is understood the plan did not
work. The Augusta company Is said to
be perfectly we'll satisfied with the First
regiment, where it has always been, and
declines to be moved.
The question now among the First
regiment people is where the 18th COM
pany of the regiment will be located.
Westbrook wants it to come there and
has organized a fine company in hopes
that it may be taken into the National
Guard. Yarmouth also has good COM
pany of several years. experience. It is
said, however, that the adjutant general
thinks Cum berland county has got her
share of the militia and is disposed to
look with more favor upon Gardiner as
the location of this company.
