Dr.. Peters, when his attention was sdrawn

BosTON, Jan. 1.-The journal SAYS.
THE Cuban provisional government
has forwarded a statement of money,
munitions Of war and provisions
furnished for carrying on the war
from ali parts of the world since
July 30, 1895, up to November
80. 1896. The statement is made that
when the struggle began General Co.
mez. the Cuban commander, agreed to
receive through the war 500, 900 to be
paid in installments of $50, 900 every
three months. 1t is claimed also that
he has already received $50, 900
from the provisional government
and that the remainder is now due,
and for that reason he has become
careless and inactive, which accounts
for the present state Of affairs. But
this is denied by the Cuban delegates
in Washington, who say that Gomez is
doing all that nan can do and Is n true
patriot and putting life and soul into
his work.
"~Following is n recapitulation of the
contributions: Cities in the United
States, 81, 706 900; states outsides cities
$o75 1900: foreign countries, s. ,22s, 900;
total. So 900.
"Gonzelo de Quesada writes hat il
81, 900. 900 can be secured in the next
sixty days three months thereafter the
war will be ended in Cuba's favor.
But the money is sorely needed and. il
not furnished, 1t means n struggle with
contingencies as well as the enemy.
The cornmander-in-chief, Gomez, finds
himself in straitened, circumstances
and il is learned from private sources
that it may put a damper on
the active movements contemplated
this winter. But Quasada believes the
friends of Cuba will come 20 the res
cue in n liberal manner. as they have
done heretofore. Less han S4OO, 900
has been sen to the army in three
months, the report says, and the treas
ury is entirely empty"

MONMOUTH, H.. Jan. AT u meet
my of Monmouth presbytery Of tho
United Presbyterian church yesterday,
the Rev. j. q. Stewart of this city was
deposcd from the ministry and also
from cnIrch membership.
About two years ago Mr.. Stewart
vas Il ioading United Presbyterian
evangelist. Suddenly he ~espoused the
idea of healing through the efficacy Of
prayer. The church reprimanded and
udmonished in vain. Several trials en-
sued, resulting in his suspension from
the ministry. Last fall he made APP
plication before the Illinois synod for
reinstatement. That body referred
the case back to the Monmouth pres
bytery, which was unanimous for ex.
pulsion.
For the past year Mr.. Stewart has
been engaged in the formation of what
Is known as the Full Bible church,
which advocates his peculiar doctrine.
He has organized n church at st. Louis
and one in this city, with prospects of
several others. He has also sent out
