STUDENTS AS VOLUNTEERS.
Meeting to Review the Recent Con-
ventiOn AIT Cleveland.

At the First Baptist Church tomorrow
afternoon at o'clock an interesting meet
ing will be conducted by delegates to the
recent international convention of the Stu
dents Volunteer Movement for Foreign
Missions, held at Cleveland, o., Feb. % to
2S 1t seems that, owing to the great excite
ment at that time over rumors of war with
Spain but little attention was given to the
convention, Notwithstanding it was one of
the most interesting in religious move
ments that has been held for long time.
There were in attendance on the conVen-
ton 2214 delegates from every civilized
country in the world, in addition to eighty
three missionaries who were home on fur
loughs for the meeting. At the convention
seventy-one missionary boards of all de-
nominations We're represented. From this
city there were fifteen delegates, represent
ing six denominations.
Much interest is being taken in the rally
tomorrow by the Young Women's Chris
tan Association. That organization has a
prominent part In the work of the Students
Volunteer Movement, and sent eight dele
gates to Cleveland. Miss Caroline II. PAIN
er, secretary of the local Y. w. G. A, ex-
planned the movement. 1t has four-1old
purpose: First, to interest students IN the
various colleges of the W Orld in an 1ntelll-
gent study of the foreign missionary SUD-
ject, to enroll students as volunteers for
the mission field, to help them In preparing
for the work by a special course of study,
and to make them feel themselves respon-
sible for the evangelization of pagan coun-
tries The work is confined not exclusively
to students in the colleges of Christian
countries but extends to students in var1-
Gus pagan countries. After ten years ex-
istence the movement has 1,1S3 volunteer
missionaries in the field.

Tuesday.

Next Tuesday afternoon the directors of
the Commercial Club will take up A. F.
Potts's suggestion that a corporation SINH
lar to the Consumers Gas Trust Company
be organized to purchase and operate the
street car lines of the city. Mr.. Potts's reso-
luton introduced at the smoker last
Saturday night, provided for the appoint
ment of committee Of the club to investi-
gate the practicability of such plan. The
committee has not been appointed, but
steps will be taken next Tuesday
Attention has been called to the fact that
the Citizens Street-railroad Company has
a mortgage Indebtedness of about 81 600 900
falling due in the next year, and that there
seems to be grave doubts as to whether the
mortgage can be refunded, considering the
instability Of the conpany's franchise
rights in Indianapolis. If the courts hold
that the company has no rights after 1901
it is said the company would be unable to
raise money to meet its mortgages and that
they would have to be foreclosed. Right
here is where a corporation, such as sug-
gested by Mr.. Potts, would have a good
thing If the mortgage were foreclosed the
plant of the company could be bought at a
very low figure, it is said. Still, this does
not take into account the alleged rights of
the City Railway Company, which have not
been set aside by yhe courts. The develop
ments of the last two or three days have
induced men who give pretty close attention
to public corporations to believe that the
Citizens Street-railroad Company will not
try to delay the litigation in which it is in
volved but will rather prefer to have it
pushed as rapidly as possible, in order that
if it has any rights after 1901 they may be
established by the court before the mort
cages become due and payable. Pretty
shrewd business men said yesterday it
would be almost a matter of impossibilty
mortgages if it's only asset is its rails in
the streets and other equipments. whether
its mortgage bonds can be refunded Will de-
pend on the action of lie courts on the sub
ject of its franchise rights, the most valu-
able asset of such corporation. With but
two and a half years left it to operate in
Indianapolis, business men and capitalists
would not care to assume its mortgages,
unless they could be made prior and SUI
perior to all other debts and some aSSur-
ance of a new franchise be given them.
There has been talk again of a consolida-
ton of the interests of the two companies.
1t is suggested that If the courts hold one
company has no rights after 1901 the same
rule will be applied to both, so that there
would be little advantage in consolidation.
pany would better stand on its present con-
tention, trusting to some such contingency
as the foreclosure of the Citizens Com
panys mortgage to get control or the tracks
and rolling stock. All round the situation IS
interesting and something may develop al
ter the meeting next Tuesday. 1t is said
that the Potts resolution Will remain IN
status quo until that time.

SPACE BETWEEN TRACKS.
WashingtOn-SfreetP People Ask that 1t
Remain Unpaved.

At a meeting of the washington-street
property owners, held in the Commercial
Club assembly rooms yesterday afternoon
it was decided to ask the board to modify
the resolution for the resurfacing or the
street between Alabama and Senate avenue,
so as not to include the space between the
street-car rails. There was a long discus
sion of the entire subject much ground be-
ing covered that has been over before.
There was talk of asking the board to sub
stitute either creosoted block or granite for
asphalt, but the plan of simply asking that
the property owners be relieved of paying
for the pavement between the tracks was
finally adopted. 1t is the contention that if
the space between the rails is not paved
now that can be ordered done year or two
hence, when new company comes in at
the company's expense.
The resolution finally adopted was offered
by George j. Marott. 1t simply requests
the Board of Works to carry out it's plans
of four feet of brick cutters with an
asphalt surface up to within two feet on
each side of the tracks. 1t was shown that
with this modification, the cost to the prop
erty owners would be a little over S. a
front foot each side. The vote on this reSo-
luton was not unanimous at first, four of
the thirty present standing out for block.
Afterward they withdrew their objections,
in order that the request for the modifica-
ton of the specifications might go to the
board as unanimous. These gentlemen also
stood out for having the nine years guar
antee clause stricken out of the specif1ca-
tons They hold that this would make the
cost to the property owners about 81 a foot
less at the outset. Another thing is that
future repairs would have to be made by
the city. Recently the board has explained
that the reason the portion of Washington
street, east of Alabama, cannot be placed
in good condition is its inability to require
the contractors to make good the guaran-
tees. If guarantees cannot be enforced, the
property owners wondered what was the
good of eXacting them, when it would
make the original cost much heavier. City
Engineer Jeup. while stating that he was
not authorized to say just what the board
would or would not do, said he felt certain
the guarantee clause would not be stricken
out.
1t was agreed that if the board consented
to modify the specifications so as to ex-
clude the tracks from the Improvement
final action might be taken Monday, in
stead of next Wednesday, the time the
board agreed to wait on the property own
ers. Especial stress was laid on the injus-
tice of requiring the property owners to
pay for paving between the tracks when
the whole street-car situation may be
cleared up shortly and franchise given
to q company with a proviso that it pay
its just proportion of street improvements.

MUSICAL AFFAIRS.

There was only standing room for the
late corners to the concert at the Fourth
Presbyterian Church last evening, given
by Mr.. Edward Nells pupils. The pro-
gramme was a long one, but was of I'M
usual excellence, both as to choice of selec-
tons and manner of presentation, for a
concert including fourteen soloists and
twenty or thirty other voices in concerted
numbers. The pupils acquitted themselves
and their instructor creditably. Miss
Georgia Calvin sang II am Thine Forever"
by Schlessinger, brilliantly, and with dra-
matte fervor. Mrs Edward Simpson, con-
tralto, was heard to advantage in the I'm
dian Love Song" by De Koven. Mr.. Jo-
seph Sweeny, young man of seventeen,
has a voice of richness power and depth,
which promises much for him with industry
and perseverance, and Miss Flora f. lifts
voice is particularly good in the high sus-
tanned tones Numbers by Mr.. Arnold r.
Spencer and DR.. w. NJ. Kunkel were well
sung. The pupils show style and character
in their work, and every number was good.
The programme was arranged to give va
riety and with the exception of the few
who stood throughout the evening, the au-
dience remained through the nineteen num-
bers.
The soloists, other than those mentioned,
were Miss Meta Tucker, Mrs. Lena Love-
joy Howard. who, accompanied by Mr.
Montani on the flute, sang a bird cadenza
with much sweetness, the voice and instru-
ment blending tremendously; Miss Winnie
Scotch, Messrs. Charles Green, Frederick
Powell and Charles c. Ebert. There
was a quartet by Mrs. Howard, Miss
Conner, Miss lift and Miss Coyner

PARK FUND TRANSFER.
Council Committee VIII Take Time to
Report the Ordinances.

T. J. Montgomery, of the Board of Works,
met with the finance committee of the
Council last night to discuss the ordinance
transferring the park fund to the board.
The committee decided to receive further
information as to what the boards plans
are before reporting on the ordinance It
was urged that there is no necessity for
haste in the matter.
The judiciary committee considered but
took no action on Mr.. Rauchs ordinance
creating dog pound. The sentiment of the
Council seems to indicate the ordinance will
never pass. This committee decided to re-
port adversely on Mr. Skaters resolution
extending the time for paying vehicle
license fees from Jan. | to April | on the
ground that an ordinance cannot be
amended by resolution.
The fees and salaries committee reported
favoraby on the ordinance increasing the
salary of Assistant Market Master joseph
Wagner from Size a day to SIS a month

decided to wait until Monday evening be-
