Special to the Indianapolis Journal
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Sept. A-The an
nual conference of the United Brethren
Church of the lower Wabash valley came to
an end this evening after a four days ses-
sion. To-slay most of the time was occu-
pied in the discussion of the Westfield, ILL.,,
college and the Theological Seminary at
Dayton, Q. The latter is amply endowed
and well provided with buildings and equip
ment, but the ministers and lay delegates
to the conference were urged to do what
they could to direct young men who are in
tending to study for the ministry to go to
the Dayton school, which is the exclusive
theological institution of the denomination
in this country. The Westtield college is
general school. but receives much attention
from the conference because it is in this
conference district. improvements are be-
ing made and the buildings enlarged. The
college is in. a prosperous condition.
1t was brought out in the course of the
discussion on congregational contributions
that of more than one hundred ministers,
only one came to the conference with his
salary paid up. It was said that the con-
tributions for all the church missions, etc.,

COURT OF ARBITRATION
MEMBERS WILL MEET IN PARIS THE
FIRST OF NEXT YEAR.
Cases of Both Venezuela and Great
Britain Ready for SubmissiOn-
Oklahoma Prospecting.
WASHINGTON, Sept. "a

WASHINGTON, Sept. A.-The approach
ing meeting at Paris of the British-Vene-
zuela court of arbitration, of which Chief
Justice Fuller and Justice Brewer are arbi-
traitors in behalf of the republic, will be
hardly second in Importance to the meeting
at Paris of the peace commission, owing
to the crisis which the Venezuela question
raised between the United States and Great
Britain during the Cleveland administra-
ton, and the extent to which the Monroe
doctrine is involved. The present plan is for
the court to hold preliminary session in
January, at which time Justice Brewer will
go to Paris. But Chief Justice Fuller is not
likely to go to the first meeting. the
United States Supreme Court will be very
busy about that time and the two members
of the bench cannot be spared at the same
time. Justice Brewer probably will arrange
for a postponement until May, at which
time both he and the chief justice will be
free to join the other arbitrators and take
up the serious business of the commission.
The case and counter cases between Great
Britain and Venezuela have been completed.
Minister Andrade, Of Venezuela, recently
submitted to the British embassy here the
counter case of the republic and stimuli
taneous with this the British counter case
was named 10 Dr ROJaS, the Venezuelan
agent in Paris. The papers make one of the
most voluminous international controversies
ever brought to arbitration. The British
case and counter case fill eleven large vol
umes, one atlas and number OF detached
maps, while the Venezuelan case fills six
volumes and three aliases. Thus, the court
will have before it a record comprising
seventeen volumes, four aliases and some
additional maps.
With the record all made up it remains
only for the counsel for the two parties to
submit their briefs. The Venezuelan brief
will be prepared by eX-Presdent Harrison,
ex-Secretary Tracy and Mr.. Malet Provost.
The British brief will be presented by the
foremost lawyers of England. including Sir
Richard Webster. 1t is expected that Mr..
Harrison and General Tracy will be present
and make oral arguments when the court
assemblies in May. Thus the personnel Of
the advocates as well as the arbitrators
will give unusual Importance to the hearing.
The British arbitrator are headed by Baron
Herschel former lord chancellor of Eng
land and the latter Chief Justice Fuller, the
official head of the judiciary. Associated
with him is Sir Richard Penn Collins. The
fifth arbitrator, who occupies the attitude
Of an umpire. is the noted Russian jurist
and international law writer, Maertens.
The latter is acting for the arbitrators up
to the time of their meeting, receiving the
papers, briefs, etc.

HARTFORD CITY, Ind. Sept 24.-The
cutters have demanded that their old scale
for 80 cents, double strength, and IS cents
single strength with a restoration of the
Boston fractional cutting and manufacture
ers to carry out glass. The manufacturers
absolutely rejected the rules and offered
1918 cents, double strength, and 1928 cents
single strength. The workers then asked
for the ruler with 50 cents and 271b cents,
which was rejected and the conference adj
journed. The manufacturers claim they
would willingly grant the last demand of the
cutters were it not for their determination
to make any advance to the cutters and
fiatteners proportional with that given the
blowers and gatherers. The demands of the
hatteners are away outside of this proper
ton, and If the manufacturers granted the
cutters demands it would give the hattenerS
a precedent that would be hard to overcome.
This Is the reason that 1T is probable the
manufacturers will settle with the fiatteners
before the cutters, If possible. The cutters
are just as firmly set in their demands as
the hatteners and ii may be a month after
Oct. 10 before all the trades are settled with.
Fires ought to be in the tank factories now
to have the glass in condition for the sched-
ule time, but the uncertainty in settlement
OF the scale is holding all the combine back.

must be ready to start at the same time.
and if the start comes later than Oct. Is

BANKS AND MERCHANTS CAUGHT.

They Had Eagerly Bought Up Time
Cheeks from the Crouch Employees.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WABASH, Ind, Sept. 24.-The affairs of
the Crouch Construction Company, which
failed Wednesday, are in a much-muddled
condition here, where the company has a
big contract for the Big Four Railroad. 1t
develops that its time checks are in the
hands of nearly all the business men and
banks in Wabash. they having been offered
at discount of per cent and were eager
~ snapped up. At least half of the one
hundred men employed on the work here
say they have had no money for two months
and were forced to accept and sell the time
checks. This afternoon all of the men quit
work. and will not resume until it is def
nitely settled that they will be paid regu-
larry. M. L. Chapter, grocer, this morning
began suit against the company on $3.50
worth of time checks. and Ambrose Kisner,
an ex-merchant. also sued on $3.50 worth.
Il IS the impression here that the debts of
the concern are considerably more than $45,-
geo, Mr. Crouch's estimate. The Big Four
Railroad may come to the assistance of the
men, retaining the amount paid to them
from the sums due Crouch.

TERRITORY OF OKLAHOMA.
Annual Report of the Governor
RraVe Men Sent to the War.

WASHINGTON, Sept N-The secretary
of the interior to-day made public the an
nual report of Hon. G. M. Barnes, Governor
of the Territory of Oklahoma. The report
is a voluminous document and takes up all
the questions which affect the interest of
the Territory. He gives full statistics in re-
gard to the railroads, schools, churches,
public lands, farming and grazing, and
mining industries and dwells at some length
upon Oklahoma's part in the late war.
Long before the actual declaration of war
with Spain,'' he says, Il began receiving
letters from patriotic citizens of the Terri
tory offering their services in defense Of
the Nation. and almost simultaneously with
the opening of hostilities the militia COM
panies all offered to volunteer and my mail
was loaded down with offers to enlist under
the flag of freedom. The brave sons Of
Oklahoma were among the first American
troops to land on Cuban soil, and they were
in the thick of the fray at FL Caney and La
Quasina, and acquitted themselves with
honor. When the gallant Captain Capron
(who had been resident of Oklahoma for
years and the first to volunteer to raise a
regiment in the Territory fell, the brave
boys of Oklahoma and Indian Territory
were close about and dashing forward
helped put the Spaniards to rout. Many
were wounded in these fights before SAINT
iago and several gave up their lives. but
they shall live long in the memory of the
people of the Territory, who honor them all
for their patriotism and their bravery"
The report shows rapidly increasing i'm
migration and a prosperous condition of all
the industrial interests Of the Territory.
The national banks report gain of 50 per
cent. in deposits over the previous year, of
125 per cent. in their loans and of so per
cent. in cash holdings. Much of the space
of the document Is devoted to churches and
schools There are sixteen hundred school
houses in the Territory and 80 per cent. of
the children attend Sabbath school.
