Large Battleship. Cannot Get Out Of
New York HarbOr During Extra
Low Water.
Washington. Dec 24.-The naval au-
thorities have learned to their dismay
tAat 1t Is not possible for one Of our
big battlesbips like the Oregon or Mas
sachusetts to get out Of New York
harbor during extra low water such as
prevailed when the latter struck on
Diamond reef Il short time ago. 10 aid
the court Of inquiry, now In session at
New York trying to ascertain the re-
sponsibility for the grounding, the
navy department called upon the coast
survey for special measurements OF
the water in the harbor near Diamond
reef and upon the rock itself. The IT,
port Of the superintendent Of the sur
vey has just been received and 1t
shows, in the opinion Of the naval Of
ticers that it is not possible for a ship
Of the size of the Massachusetts and
with her maneuvering qualities to get
out Of the harlNr without touching
bottom when the tide is ebb and the
wind strong.

Pure religion and undefled before
God and the Father is this: to visit
the fatherless and widows in their
affection, and to keep himself I'M
spotted from the world. James l. ~.
We know that the word trans
lated religion" means outward SER
vice." 1t does not refer to the mans
belief, but to the way in which it
ought to be shown. There are various
forms of worship whereby Christians
display their faith. Religious rit-
ual has many shapes. These
give prominence to one feature
or another OF our Creed, &C.
cording to the mind of the worship
er. St. James does not here trouble
himself about these. They may legiti-
mately differ. Whatever they may be,
he points to that which should always
mark the outcome OF our faith, and
is "undefiled before God and the
Father" The true notes Of our out
ward Christian service or observance
are sympathy" and purity" These
are required by God Of all, and they
are illustrated by a mans visitation
OF widows and fatherless in their az
fiction, and also by keeping Of him
self unspotted from the world.

PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT
For the Settlement Of All Questions
Before the Joint High Comm issiOn.

For the Settlement of All Questions
Before the Joint High Commission.
Washington. Dec. 24.-The next SEES
sion Of the joint Canadian high COM
mission will be adjourned pretty close
to fortnight. Lord Herschell, Brit
ish member of the commission, is
booked to sail for Europe on the 25th
of January. He cannot delay longer
in the United States for the reason
that he is obliged to attend the Paris
arbitration ON the question of the
Venezuelan boundary, being one of the
arbitrators. There are indications
that. after all. the commissioners re-
gard the prospect of reaching an
agreement as much brighter than they
did before the adjournment of the
session. and the opinion is now ex-
pressed in we'll informed circles that
before Lord Herschell's departure a
treaty will have been completed set
Ting all questions ut dispute be-
tween the two countries, and even
making some slight progress towards
the attainment of reciprocity.

Consul Britain, at Nantes, reports to
the state department that he has been
Informed that an influential company
has been formed in France, and that
strenuous efforts will be put forth .by
its members to secure the passage of &
measure which will place the import
duty on cOttOnSeed oil at so high fig
ure that it will be practically prohibit
tive.The importance Of this proposition
lies in the fact that nearly all the oil
imported into France comes from the
United States. The cOnsummation Of
the plan, the consul says, would be a
severe blow to American exporters
Most encouraging reports concerning
the health of the American troops gar
risoning Porto Rico continue to reach
the war department..
Commissioner Scott, of the internal
revenue bureau has sent q letter to
Chairman Dingley Of the ways and
means committee withdrawing rec
concentration that congress should set
tie definitely whether the writer of the
telegraph company should pay the tax
on kilograms. He does this, he writes,
because as the attorney general ana
the courts have ruled that the writer OF
the telegram should pay the tax, he
has no further interest in the matter.

Newspaper correspondents in Berlin

Northern Schleswig. The activity Of

Hundreds of persons-men, women and
children of all ages-have been forced
to give up their homes and flee over
the frontier into the northern peninsu-

Danish press is urging the striking OF
a blow at German trade. Denmark i'm
ports from Germany goods to the value
of not less than $35 900 annually,
moro than half as much as from all the
rest of the world. Danes are urged to
stop the importation of German manu-
features, and the temper Of the people
is favorable to the proposition. An as
ISOLATION of merchants has been form
ed in Copenhagen, the members OF
which are pledged to buy nothing that
is imported from Germany. The threat
is not lost on Germany. Berlin mer-
chants are tremendously stirred up
over the prospect Of losing so good
customer. Already Prince Hohenlohe,
the imperial chancellor, has received
scores of communications-som OF
them numerously- signed petitions
begging that the persecution of the
Schleswig Danes may be forbidden.

Heirs of Henry Hoppe Will Receive
&6.lOU.

Washington, Dec. 24.-The state de-
partment has just received, through
United States Minister Clayton, from
the Mexican government, a draft for
$1,000 to be paid to the heirs of Henry
Hoppe, a native Of New Orleans.
Hoppe had been working in Mexico,
and while travelling in the mountains
of Oaxaca he was brutally murdered
by one Of the Mexican rural or native
constabulary who are retained for the
express purpose of protecting travel
ers. At the time an Englishman
named McSweeney was killed in pre-
cisely the same fashion, and as the
State of OaXaca paid the British gov
eminent $1,000 on account of his death
it was obliged to yield to our rerre-
sensations in behalf of the American
citizen and make similar allowance
to the heirs Of Hoppe. The rulIle who
committed the deed was punished.
