How Other Names in the New Gold Disl trict Should be Spelled.

Washington, Oct. 10.-The United States board on geographic names.
 which meets here at stated intervals. has just rendered decisions determin- ing the spelling of one hundred and forty-nine geographical names. These include a number in Alaska, significant at this time in view of the Klondike ex-a
 citement. Following is summary of the action taken relating to places con- spicuously mentioned in the gold re- zion: As to Klondike, the decision is to spell it as here given and not Clon- dyke, Chandike, Klondyke, Chandik or Deer, Reindeer, Thorndike nor Thorn duick.
 One of the lakes of the upper Yukon
 was named Lebarge, in 1S6S after Mike Lebarge, member of the exploring ex- petition. The board adheres to the origina1-Lebarge. Tn 1883 Schwatka named one of the lakes of the Yukon headquarters Lindeman, after Dr. Lin-
 deman, now vice president of the Bre-
 men Geographical society. This some
 times appears Linderman. The board
 adopts Lindeman. One of the princi-
 pal tributaries of the upper Yukon is
 the Lewes river. This is often miscall- ed Lewis. The inlet river and village at the head of Lynn canal which now appears almost daily under the form Dyea is an Indian word which has ap- peared in many forms. Admiral Meade in 1869 wrote it Tyya. The board adopts the form Taiya
 For the lake and river variously call ed Hootalinqua or Hotalinga the board adopts Teslyn. An Indian village is called Nuklukaylet. This has been written in several forms, including the erroneous one, Tuklukyet

POLICE SECURED EVIDENCE
To Convict "King of Sunday Law Vio'
 lators," Thomas c. Heaney.

10 COnV1ct ''hlnS or Suuuhy i4aW 'io lators," Thomas c. Heaney. Evidence thought to be sufficient to convict was yesterday obtained against Thomas c. Heaney, called by the Grand avenue police 'the king of Sunday law violators." Heaney keeps the saloon at 651 Grand avenue, corner of Hamilton street, and it is said that he has esti- mated his Sunday business to amount on the average to $100 per day. It has been his custom of late to keep open only during the early morning hours on Sunday and several times the police have endeavored in vain to secure evil dence against him. Yesterday morning early, shortly after 5 o'clock, Sergeant Crocker and Officer k. J. Reilly con- cealed themselves in the rear of the saloon and did not have long to wait for evidence During the short time the officers were on the watch they saw eighteen men drink at the back door of the saloon, the liquor being served to them by Heaney and his bartender, John Farley.
 Shortly before o'clock Heaney closed the place and went fishing, not being aware that the police had been watch ing his place and had caught him vio- lating the law. He will be arrested to- day probably.

THE TRUST IS 4 MYTH.
Treasury Department DIssipates Hopes eff
 Sangnine Alleged Heirs.

New York, Oct. 10.-The treasury de- partment has had many inquiries from time to time about the alleged estate of one Joseph Ball of Philadelphia, which is supposed to be held in trust in the treasury department. The let ters speak of this trust as an alleged eighty -four-years' lease given by Mr. Ball to certain valuable property in Philadelphia Some time ago it was stated that ex-President Harrison was interested as an attorney in the estate. Many hundreds of people all over the country have been drawn into the struggle for the money which they er- roneously imagine lies in the treasury awaiting distribution.
 To all of these inquiries replies are sent informing the heirs that there is no such fund in the treasury, and that the only record in the treasury de- partment of Joseph Ball of Philadel- phia relates to a claim of about $3, 900 which he filed as an underwater against the government in 1901 for car go seized by the French. The claim is one of the ordinary French spolia- tion claims.

 the Murder of His Wife

New York, Oct. 1O.-Central Office Detective W. H. Moore of this city, who is under arrest suspected of hav- ing stabbed his wife to death last Wednesday, was to-day committed to the Tombs by Coroner Fitzpatrick The most damaging evidence against Moore was given by Mrs. Morrison, who said she heard Moore in the house on the afternoon of the tragedy. Two boys also say that between 1 and 2 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon they saw the detective leaving his home. Moore de- nies that he killed his wife and says that he was in the Wall street district all day Wednesday until after 3 o'clock, when he received word that there was something wrong at his home and then he went up town and found his wife dead
 The effort to prove that his wife died from a stab wound in the abdomen in fiicted by herself will be his defence.

MAMMOTH WATER MAIN BURST. The Loss to Property Will Mount We'll
 Into the Thousands.

| New York, Oct. 10.--A mammoth Gro ton water main burst early this morn ing at the corner of Madison avenue and Forty-eighth street, and wrought such havoc with property that not even | a partial calculation can be made of the financial damage at present. For | blocks around scarcely a dwelling or public building could be found which did not suffer in a greater or less de- ! gree by reason of the volumes of water which poured into the streets, cellars and basements.
 The loss will reach far into the thou sands. The big main was probably cracked by a blast late Saturday af- ternoon. The breaking of the four-foot water pipe was announced by rum bling noise, which awakened the people in the immediate vicinity. Looking out of their windows they saw a great gey- ser in the middle of the avenue, shoot ing a vast volume of water into the air, column so high that it reached almost to the top of the electric light pole on the corner. Those who had no view of the fountain heard mighty rush of water.
 
 the railroad branch of the T. Nj. c. A. building and to the Knickerbocker Ath- letic club house. Tn the basement of the latter place were located the dy- namo machinery, bowling alleys and the bath rooms. These have probably been ruined The club officials place the loss at $15,00O.
 At first it was impossible to locate exactly the main which had broken un- til there was a shutdown at the Central Park reservoir. In this way much time was lost, while the deluge continued. After five hours the flow was stopped.
 Almost without exception the houses in the vicinity of the break, were dam aged, the individual losses ranging from $500 to S2,000. The residence of J. Hook CT Hammersley, William Eustace, J. Talbot and the cub house of the Delta Phi were among those injured. The tracks in the main yard of the Grand Central depot were submerged, but not seriously damaged.
 The main which broke was laid in 1874. It has a capacity of two million gallons an hour with a pressure of twenty-seven pounds to the square inch.

THE LONDON MARKETS.
Exports of Gold to This Country Have
 Materially Altered the Outlook.

London, Oct. 10.-The resumption Of gold shipments has changed the out look for the money market. Grain shipments from the United States are now large, and cotton is also en route, While there is little, if any, offset in the way of American purchases in this market. So far, indeed, as stock oper- ations are concerned, special remit tances in cash are being made to New York in connection with the coming sale of the Union Pacific road.
 These circumstances combine to indi- cate a somewhat large drain of gold and an advance in the bank rate, al- though the American demand will doubtless be met to some extent from Paris, French purchases of wheat being considerable. A moderate rise in the value of money is probable. Discount is rather firmer. The banks are not taking paper freely, though money re- mains in good supply at one per cent per week. Business on speculative ac- count, however is of such moderate di- mensionS and movements have been within such a comparatively narrow compass that the effect had been rather to discourage fresh dealings than to produce a decline.
 The markets were steady yesterday, which is favorable feature on the eve of settlement. Canadian Pacific rail- way shares have risen three points within a week on the excellent traffic reports. On the other hand, Grand Trunk shares have fallen from two to two and one-half points in view of the doubt as to the intention of the direc- tors to resume dividends. Wall street is obviously feeling the effects of recent speculative purchases and the persist ent unloading of European holders. The complications in Cuba are not SO much discussed, but considerable un- easiness is expressed as to the outcome of the mayoralty election in New York Mining shares and Spanish securities are weaker

Winchelaw was ordered locked up by Captain Schmittberger, who before the LeXow committee swore that he had re- ceived many bribes.

 '"The government has observed the partial failure of the potato crop With great concern and is watching anxious ly the condition of the people in the threatened districts.

FIRE IN TONIJNE HOTEL. Damage Very Slight-The Guests, How eyer. Greatly Alarmad.

A fire which did about $10O worth of damage occurred in the attic of the Tontine hotel about o'clock yesterday
 morning. For short time the guests of the hotel were much excited and
 alarmed and some were about to throw
 trunks from the windows when they were informed that the blaze was out. The flames were quickly extinguished
 after the department arrived. The fire is supposed to have originated from the
 crossing of electric wires used in the annunciator service of the hotel, the
 current being furnished by a battery in the house. The night clerk stated last evening that just before the fire was discovered nine numbers dropped on the indicator board, that many wires being affected by the crossing of wires which started the fire.

DUTY OF CHURCH TO CITY
REV. ADDISON MOORE's THEME AT
 FIRST BAPTIsT CHURCH.
Commencementof New Year at the Church Special Services Throughout the Day Usual Chorus Choir Augmented-Pastor Urges More Work at Home Among the Benighted and Less Abroad.

Urges More Work at Home Among the Benighted and Less Abroad.
 The commencement of a new church year at the First Baptist church, ,Woos- ter Square, was duly and appropriately celebrated in that house of worship all day yesterday, Special services were held, rot only morning and evening, but also in the Sunday school and Y.
 P. s. c. E. Large numbers of people
 were present at each of the services. Numerous potted plants were taste- fully arranged around the pulpit and added much to the beauty of the ser- vices. The usual chorus choir was aug-
 mented by a large number of voices,
 and their rendition of several anthems
 was especially good. In the morning an offertory solo, There is a City,. was given by MT. Frank Edgar. | Antiphonal choirs stationed in the | front and rear balconies rendered the
 music for the evening service The effect was unique and considerable fa- vorable comment was heard. In the
 morning the pastor, Rev. Addison which he urged the necessity of many reforms in this city.
 His subject was: 'The Duty of the Church to the City" He found his text in the 21st chapter of Revelations,
 the second verse: And I, John, saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven" He dwelt at some length on the purity and beauty of the holy city, giv- ing his conception of it as taken from the words of St. John. He pictured Je- sus Christ as the temple at whose shrine every knee shall bow and before whom all nations shall sing praises.
 "The command of our Saviour to go into all the world and preach the re- ligion of Jesus Christ has been fulfill ed,' said the speaker, land people Of every tongue have confessed His name. The twentieth century may bring the realization of that great promise, that everything shall be changed
 He spoke of how literally the mem- bers of the church had contributed to the support of mission work among the heather in other parts of the world; how sparsely for work among the heather in this city.
 In brief he said: we need more work at home and less abroad, and now is the time to begin. It has been delayed too long already, and should be commenced at once.
 "He who lies awake planning to emp ty the jails, alnlshouses and saloons and to fill the colleges. libraries, etc., to help build up Christ's kingdom here on earth will be doing noble work. This should be done in our city of New Haven. We should plan to have it all alike. Magnifcence in one part, mind in another means mediocrity for all.
 Let us have clean lives commercial ly, politically and socially, as well as spiritually, and let us seek to have our city more like St. Johns vision, of the new Jerusalem; no place for filthy streets, no licensed dens of vice. Heaven help those who lift not their hands in this great work"
 A special collection was taken for work among the Danes and Norwe- gians of the city.
