The Accused Put Through a Scathing
Cross-Fire.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 1.-THE
ecclesiastical court now inquiring into
the charges of immortality against Rev.
DR.. G. 0. Brown of the First Congrega-
tienal Church is now looking for an i'm
portant witness in the person of the
porter in charge of the sleeping car
which took DR.. Brown and Miss Over
man to Tacoma in 1894 1t is alleged
that the porter in making his rounds
surprised the doctor and Miss Over
man in their section.
DR.. Brown was on the stand to-day
for cross-exanination, and was ques-
served, but he declined to give any. in
formation on the subject, on the ground
that he did not care to bring in an
others name.
He was told by the Moderator that no
name was involved, but he still declined
to explain the incident
The pointed question was then put to
him If a porter had not appeared at the
section occupied by himself and Miss
Overman in a way calculated to startle
them, but he still refused to answer.
At the evening session George Bick-
ford, who unearthed the OvermanTun-
rell letters, testified that he had OBJ
tanned them from Mrs. Tunnel in a
legitimate manner, and had never
offered to sell them to DR. Brown
DR.. Brown was recalled and subjected
to a severe cross-examination, from
which he did not escape unscathed,
contradicting himself in many in
stances.
The labors of the council are still far
from complete, and a lot of new evil
dence will Re submitted tomorrow.

more unfit than naturally for drinking
purposes.
1--WE have discovered that the entire
sewage of Folsom Prison is run into the
American River" said the doctor, 'and
conveyed down that stream to Sacra-
mento When the board investigated
this the defense was made that Redding,
Red Bluff, Marysville and other cities
dumped their sewage into the Sacra-

bad state of affairs. There are only
five or six blocks severed at ALL and
the vile stuff is all dumped into the
Sacramento River"

Preparing to Organize an Army of His
Own.

NEW YORK, March 11-Ballington
Booth is preparing to organize an army
Of his own on National lines as soon as
he can perfect his plans in this city
Mr.. Booth said to-day that Chicago
would be one of his first objective points
when through with New York, and that
he had received several letters from
pl ointment Salvationists there, request
ing that the new army should come
West.

command he could rot say but thought
possibly in a week or more.

father, General Booth, published yester-
Gay, saving that he Intended to conduct
the army irrespective of persons, Bal
lington Booth said he had never asked
any favors from the head commander,
but had been subject to the same rules
as others. No name is as yet given to
the new command.
Ballington and Mrs. Booth decided
to-day that they would not reply to
the cable message of General Booth to
his American troops. 1t was intimated,
however, that the ex-commanders will
have something to say in the near
future.
Nearly 200 persons have asked for ad-
mission to the Defenders League, and
that branch of the organization prom
ises to be a very important and success
full one. The number of officers and
soldiers from the old organization is
now about 800, while about 1000 have
declared their intention of doing so.
Captain Fred. Rogler, well-known
mission worker in this city, heads what
is to be a third faction of the Salvation
Army. The scheme of this new army
is to be broader than that Of the Booth
organization, as ii promises not only
to bring men and women under relig-
ious influence. but to furnish them
with food, shelter and work if needed.
Those at the head of this faction say
that with fund of $4,000 they can in

country" described the bond of union
between the Americans and the Eng

could claim Huguenot descent, found a
new tie which was scarcely less strong
in binding him to Great Britain, the tie
which connected those who for many
generations had cherished the idea of
insistence upon their rights or individ-
ual conscience. This tie, he said, would
not be forgotten at this time, when
every tie uniting the two great nations
ought to be recognized, and If possible
strengthened. Mr.. Bayard's remarks
