INDIANA REPUBLICANS.
Conference at Indianapolis Largely
Attended, Currency Reform Dis
cussed-Civii Service Law
Talked About.

Indianapolis, Dec. 28.-Five hundred
representatives of the Republican party
in Indiana, outside of the city of In
dianapolis, attended today's conference.
Influential men in the party we're enoour-
aged by the statements of senators and
representatives that there is hope for
currency reform, not radical Legislation,
but such as will tend to set the party
right before people. The unanimity of
the party in the state on the proposition
that the currency must be reformed was
a surprise to many men attending the
conference. The Democrats, 1t was
averred, will declare for free silver 10
the next state platform, and the Repub-
licans will, of course, take the opposite
ground.
In the event OF failure on the part of
congress to take any action looking to
reform of the currency, certain members
of the party said, the Republican party
10 this state will 60 into the state cam
psign on the defensive from 4 the start.
10 the hotel lobbies there was great
deal of talk against the OWL service law,
but it came largely from men who had
made application for Office Immediately
after the nomination of President Mo
Kinley and had been disappointed.
Prominent men of the party agreed that
no ono need fear that the Republicans of
Indiana will ever declare against the law.

The family life of the reigning house
hold both at Athens and at Deceleia is
said to be exceptionally happy. A story
IS told, well illustrating the extent to
which democratic feeling has taken hold
even of the lSing's sons, to the effect that
as the children were playing together
ono day they got to talking about what
they were to do when they grew up, and
the crown prince said to his brother:
"Oh, George, you be king when you are
grown up; 1 don't want to-" Neither
did Prince George want to be king, and
both decided that it was n disagreeabie
fate. Now one has been at the head of
the Greek fleet, and the other has been
sent in command of the land forces to
Larissa. / recall well that one day

BISHOP COLEMAN IN NEW YORK.
HE EXTOLs CHRISTIAN WORK IN
ST. JOHNS CHURCH.

At st. Johns Chapel, in New York,
Bishop Leighton Coleman, yesterday
preached the sermon and celebrated
the holy communion. He was assisted
by the vicar Of the church, Rev. Philip
A. H. Brown, and the curates, Rev.
Frederick J. Keech and Rev. William
s. Bishop.
After referring to the recent dedica-
tion of the great mausoleum and eu-
logizing the character of General
Grant. he said:
I'VE conclude to-day in the same me-
tropolis a commemOration, after dif
ferent manner, of an event whose ma
ture, however so interesting to the
noteworthy congregations which have
with such befitting ceremonies sought
to honor IT,, fails to stir the populace
as they have lately been stirred.
"And yet it has to do with the very
things which, to an essential degree,
entered into the formation of that
character which gave to the pageant
which / have mentioned its chief and
abiding glory. A patriotic and coura-
geous discharge of duty, coupled with
an unassuming and unseliish exercise
Of authority and an earnest longing for
unity and peace-these would seem to
have been the predominant character
istics of General Grant. Who will deny
that these ry-dispositions are among
the fundamental principles of the
practical Christianity which has been
preached from the several pulpits OF
this venerable parish throughout the
whole OF its history?
1T stands, as it aiways has stood, "a
rebuke and combat its greatest foe
materialism, which has no logical con-
nection with either science or art, but
co-operates in subtlety and power with
other foes to blind mems eyes to the
claims of moral and spiritual truth
I'm these memorial services We
should gratefully acknowledge oui
many and lasting obligations to those
who did not think of this fair CONT
nent as a place merely to plunder bu
a place TO be evangelical with the pre-
cious doctrines of the same old creed
What a debt we owe them for building
us churches, establishing kindly insti
tutions and adorning this land will
their godly lives!'

wuY nELAY THE MATTER?

Chairman HAZEL, of the committee
appointed to investigate the charges OF
bribery against certain members OF
the General Assembly. has made very
creditable declaration, and that is that
the members of the committee do not
propose to become detectives. 1t would
certainly be most reprehensible for
them to spy upon their associates or to
abuse confidence in any manner.
The broad, common-sense view to
take Of the matter is that the commit
tee is sitting in Dover to hear COM
plants and to weigh evidence attend
ing them. After this notice has beer
given for a reasonable length of time
and no one appears the COMMITTEES
should be discharged, for it is not righ
TO hold all the members of the bod,
under constant suspicion. Not onl.
that, but those members who are al
ready accused are entitled to a speed!
determination Of their cases. TIL
Cause incident has closed, both side
have told all they know about it, AM
a report is in order. If the testimon
does not warrant the charges of brib
cry the public ought to know it, an
the accused members should certainl
demand an immediate report.
