GOING TO BROAD CHURCHES.
This Years Graduates From Union
Seminary All Placed

| NEW YORK, May 12.-In spite of the
fact that Union Theological Seminary is
| supposed to be tainted with heresy. and
that few weeks ago several members
OF the class about to be graduated from
the seminary We're rejected on account
OF heresy by various clerical examining
boards, it was learned yesterday that all
/ the twenty-four who wish to preach have
received appointments as clergymen They
have generally found their way into the
more liberal churches of their several de-
nominations
For example, Lawrence r. Howard has
been appointed assistant pastor to the
Rev. Dr. Moore OF the Central Congrega-
tional Church, Providence. DR.. Moore is
one of the most scholarly and liberal
clergymen in his denomination. and his
church is one of the largest in New Eng
land. Charles C. Burd is to be assistant
to DR.. Van Vranken Holmes of the West
minister Presbyterian Church of Buffalo.
DIR. Holmes is wen known throughout
the country for his liberal views and for
the extensive social and philanthropic
work carried on by his church
Charles H Sears, who, during his un-
dergraduate course, has been the assist
ant of DR. Edward Judson of the Me-
mortal Baptist Church, has accepted the
pastorate of the Yonkers Baptist Church.
OF a like significance is the appointment
of Orrin c. Cocks as assistant to DR..
Carsons of the Central Presbyterian
Church, Brooklyn, and of George r.
Lunn as assistant to DR.. Gregg of the La
fayette Avenue Presbyterian Church,
Brooklyn
These appointments are thought by the
friends of the seminary to indicate that
the leading pulpits of the country are
liberal rather than conservative, and that
they demand men trained in modern the
illogical thought.
These appointments to prominent
churches also are said to point to the fact
that Union Seminary is attracting some
of the ablest students of the country. 1t
is a fact that nearly one-half the mem
bers of the graduating class are to re-
ceive the degree of B. D.. a degree con-
ferred only upon those who graduate with
special honor. a majority of the mem
bers have also taken additional work at
Columbia or New York University, and
several have received the degree of A.
NJ. from one or the other of these insti-
tutions. Three members of the class hold
feilowships for special study. larger
number than ever before in the history
of the seminary.
Inc graduating exercises of the class
OF 1901 at Union Seminary will be held
evening. The diplomas will be
presented by John Crosby Brown. Presi-
dent of the Board OF Trustees, and Presi- |
dent Hall Will deliver an address. The |
graduating class numbers thirty-four |
representing the COngrega- |
tional, Baptist, Methodist. Presbyterian. !

nations. Twenty-four of the members are /

after graduation, and the remaining ten
are TO continue their studies for another |

LOUIS CAsSIER ARRIVES.
To Prepare for the Visit of British
Worlxmeu to America.

NEW YORK. May E.-Louis Cassier,
proprietor and editor of "Cassier's Maga-
zine" who is to bring twenty British work
men of the engineers trade, half union
and half non-union men, to this country

299 cabin passengers on the st. Louis,

The men are coming in six or eight

turn to bring them over for a months
stay in this country. We shall visit the
New England manufacturing cities, go
as far West as Chicago and Minneapolis,
as far south as Philadelphia and Pitts
burg. and go back on an Anchor liner.
The workman of England does not be-
lieve he should do a full days work be-
cause. he reasons, that by SO doing he
will deprive some other workman of en-
ployment.
THE delegation will look over the en-
tire situation. study the labor question
on both sides and see how ii is an Ameri-
can workman can perform a days work.
With this object in view enough funds
have been subscribed to send the work

TROOPS AT JACKSONVILLE
Governor Jennings Decides Not to
Withdraw Them for while.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, May 12-Gov-
ernor Jennings arrived from Tallahassee
yesterday TO personally inspect the stu
alton in this city. He was accompanied
by committee from the Legislature
which on Monday will report on the con-
ditiOns as they found them. The Execu-
tive Committee Of the Relief Association
assured the Governor that the withdrawal
Of the State troops would mean a reign
of anarchy in the city and therefore the
militia will be kept here for some weeks
longer. The Legislative Committee will
recommend special legislation in behalf
of Jacksonville, the question of land
titles to receive particular attention. All
the county and city records were de-
stroyed in the fire. 1t is also probable
that action will be taken deferring the
city election, which was to have occurred
next month.
After a delay of thirty hours the relief
train from the New York Chamber of
Commerce pulled into the city yesterday
morning at II o'clock. Congestion of
freight on the tracks from the North
caused the delay. The train came in just
in time TO obviate the necessity of pur-
chasing supplies.
The payroll for the week of those en-
pIoyed by the Relief Association to clear
up the streets and ruins of city buildings
amounted to $500. Many more men can

A saUAw DEMANDS REFORM.
She Wants Alien Indinns-Deported
From OnondaGn Reservation.

SYRACUSE. n. Y, May l2.-CiviI war
is threatened among the Indians on the
Onondaga Reservation, and the first war
cry has been delivered by a woman, Mrs
Eliza Pierce, a fulibio0ded Indian and the
leader of the Onondagas.
Mrs Pierce is imbued with the spirit Of
the womans club and Of the reformer

mans Christian Temperance Union among
the squaws, and is herself it's president
Looking about for something to reform
she discovered some allen Indians They
were st. Regis and Oneidas who after
they had been on the reservation awhile,
Mrs. Pierce says, married into the Onon-
daga families and became citizens.
This the Reservation w. c. T. u. have
decided to stop. and they have appealed
to the Syracuse w. c. T. U. to help them.
They propose to send the aliens home
They do not want them on the reserva-
tion because. Mrs. Pierce says, If this is
allowed to continue the Onondaga Indians
will be driven out of all their possessions.
In her argument she quotes from the
original Indian treaty as follows:
The people of the State of New York
may in such manner as they shall deem
proper prevent any persons except the
Onondagas from residing or settling on
the lands SO TO be held by the Onondagas
and their posterity for their own use and
cultivation. And if any person shall,
without the consent of the people of the
State Of New York. come TO reside or
settle on the said land. the Onondagas
and their posterity shall forthwith give
notice OF such intrusion to the Governor
OF the said State"
Mrs. Pierce says that notice was given
to the Governor about a year ago, but
that Mr.. Pincltney. the Indian Agent, rec
commended that the matter be dropped
AS spokesman for her tribe, Mrs Pierce
however, says that the matter will not be
dropped and that affairs are now at such

MeniaI Labor.

| Among the numerous problems with
which this country is now struggling is
| the one Of so-called "menial labor .
In the first place, we are not quite sure,
/ any of US. what labor is menial and
what is not menial; and in the second
/ place, we are not certain what we
ought to do about it when it is
/ If we follow the traditions of Euro

on persons who are not our equals in
culture or education, or knowledge Of
the sefnements of life, on ali workmen
and servants, and on all people who are
related to or descended from the pro-
scribed classes. This would be a good
deal Of trouble. and. moreover, it would
keep US looking down most Of the time,
so that we should miss a good deal of
the beauty Of the world, in making sure
Of a somewhat insecure footing. More
over. If any such rigid tests were ap-
piled, il is 90 be feared that the people
poised on the top of the social pyramid
would be so few that society would be
terribly limited. There might also be
difficulty, in the mixed state Of the
world. in compelling the people who
should look UP 10 US To do so.
r. on the other hand, we follow the
path which the average Engiishman
supposes TO be ours. we shall look down
on nobody. and admit to our society all
people regardless Of occupation. culture.
or other qualifications. This we are not
likely TO do, because it would be i'm
practicable and uncomfortable. Sup
pose, for example people whose ideal
Of art is q reproduction of THE An
gelus'' on a table-cover should try to
associate with those who delight in Bot
ticell. IT would be like the fox and the
stork in the fable. There is a certain
fitness in the fockinE together Of birds
Of a feather. People who are interested
in the same things can get on happily
with each other.
But are there occupations whose ma
tdre effectually bars the worker out |
from cultivated society, and if so, what |
are they? Abraham Lincoln was a rail- |
splitter. and if he was not a barber or a |
waiter it was perhaps because there /
was nc field for that kind Of labor |
where he lived at the time, rather than
because he would have scorned it If
there had been. Most Americans can, I
and on occasion do. black their own
boots and shave themselves, and many
American ladies have done their own

there was any need OF ii. At what point
does work which is not a disgrace when
done for ones self become a disgrace
when done for other people?

sentences will probably be reviewed and

1t is possible, however, that President
Mckinley will authorize General Mac
Arthur to exercise a power of a com
mander in the field, which is desirable,
owing TO the effect that a prompt con

Circulation Statement.
The Canal i'm England.

The remarkable article in the London
Spectator to which we called atten-
tion in our Sunday edition attracted a
great deal of notice in the British me
tropols on its appearance yesterday.
The good sense and propriety of its ad-
vice to the British Government to drop
the irritating Clayton-B -Bulwer Conven-
tion. and let the United States build the
Nicaragua Canal to suit itself, as long
as British shipping should be put on all
fours with American shipping, has
elected many expressions Of approval
in well informed circles.
No one expects. however, that the ar
gument Of the Spectator will exert
the least influence over the mind of
Lord Lansdowne. He is a Clayton-Bul-
wer stickler to q much greater extent
than Lord Salisbury was, and he is said
to be anything but in love with Ameri-
ca. Probably he does not forget the
many sharp things said about his South
African war management by the Amer
lean press.
1t is possible that if the foreign policy
of the Administration for the past four
concession TO Great Britain. the Brit
ish Government might now be glad to
abandon its baseless claim that the con-
veniion OF 1850 is still alive and opera
tive. But as long as it regards high
official OF the Washington Administra-
ton as a purely personal asset,
through whom it can secure American
territory in Alaska and American as
sistance to revive the Clayton -Bulwer
Treaty, it does not stand TO reason that
it should surrender more than it is
asked 20.
We do not look for a British retreat |
at present, but we do hope and believe |
that MIR. McKinley's visit to the Pacific |
Coast viii result in his conviction that |
the Nicaragua Canal is a great nation /
al necessity, that it viii be a part Of our /
coast line. and that, hence, it ought 10 /
be built managed, protected, and de-
Tended as a public work. free from in
reference from any foreign quarter /
whatsoever. Should the President come /
home with SUCH ideas in his head and /
mention the fact to a Senator or two. !

torn up about the first time the Senate
