DROP THE TEMPLE.
w. G. +. U. Decides to Abandon It's Inter-
est in the Chicago Building.

w. G. T. U. Decides to Abandon It's Inter-
est in the Chicago Building.
ST. PAUL, Nov. 16.-The Woman's
Christian Temperance union, by a vote
of 285 in the affirmative to II in the
negative, dropped the Woman's Temple
in Chicago as an affiliated interest and
disclaimed all connection with or inter-
est in the building which is intended to
be a memorial to the late temperance
leader, Miss Frances E. Willard.
The action Of the convention was
taken after long session and q pro-
tracted debate, during which many bit
ter words were exchanged between the
leading advocates on both sides of the
Temple question. The lie direct was
not passed, but several times during the
afternoon delegates called each other to
account for misstatements, and it was
even charged by some that matters of
record had been distorted to apply to
the cases point.
The Templates, as the advocates of
the retention Of the Temple are called,
declared that the w. G. T. u.
Had Repudiated Debt
which it was in honor bound to pay
while the ti-Templeites denied it,
They did not like the term repudiatioa
and said the w. G. T. U. simply with
drew from any obligation to stand back
Of the Temple project.
After the vote had been announced,
Mrs. Marion II. Dunham of Iowa offered
a resolution to the effect that, while the
w. c. T. U. no longer recognized the
Temple debt as legal obligation, it
still would consider it moral ob1iga-
ton against it. This resolution, it was
agreed, will be considered later. It
may result in another battle, for there
are many delegates in the convention
who said that if they thought the drop
ping of the Temple would absolve the
w. C. T. U. from the moral phase Of
the question they would vote to retain
the Temple

Beauchamp of Kentucky assistant re-

A remarkable fact connected with the
election of the two leading general Of
icers is that they are not only the choice
of the convention, but they now hold Of
fees which Frances E. Willard wanted
them to hold, and for which she hon
estly believed they were intimately
fitted. That wish alone would have
gone far toward securing their election,
but it is an added honor that the dele
gates wanted them also.

Consolidation Of Central American Slater
Has Not Prevented Revolutions.
New YORK. Nov. ia cable dispatch
received in this city from Libertad
Nicaragua, states that a revolution has
broken out in Salvador.
1t is only a fortnight since Salvador,
Honduras and Nicaragua joined their
destinies and formed the United States
of Central America. Merchants and
commercial men in this city who are
familiar with affairsin Central America,
however, were not surprised when in
formed that a revolution in Salvador
was reported to have broken out. While
the federation of the three countries
was approved and carried out by the
commissioners appointed by the three
countries to draw up q constitution, the
people Of Salvador have not been enthu-
siastic over the new scheme, partic cularly
as it appears the financial burdens Of
maintaining the new state will fall most
heavily upon them, owing to their hav-
ing a denser population than either Of
the other parties to the consolidation.

Colonel Bliss Tells of the Filthy Condition
of Havana. ..
New YORK, Nov. 16.-Among the pas
sengers who arrived here on the steamer
Yucatan from Havana was Colonel II.
j. Bliss of the subsistence department
of the army. Colonel Bliss was ordered
to Cuba Oct. II to locate camp sites for
the army of occupation. He brings

which he will take to Washington.
When asked as to the state Of affairs in
Havana the colonel said the city was in
filthy condition.
II do not believe" he said, "that the
city has ever been in worse shape. The
people are seriously alarmed over the
prevalence Of yellow fever. They con-
slider that as there are no facilities for
fighting the dread disease it wfll spread
quickly if the city remains in the pres.
ent unsanitary condition"

much one way or another. They have
already gotten plans on foot for an or !.
ganization within this one, and circles
will be formed all over the country this
year in the ranks Of the w. c. T. U. or
among the Christian workers Of cities.
The plans have been practically forlnu-
lated, but meeting will be held during
the day, when definite action will be
taken.
The new organization will be called

Union, and its sole object will be to
save the building.

separated from his wife, well-preserved
woman of 40. for two years. She had been
married before her former husband, Eu
gene Olds who died in 1892, leaving her
a valuable estate. She frequently accused
SCHUYLER of having diverted the greater
portion of this property to his own use
and she stated that the object of her Wis
