A CALL FOR HELP
NEEDS OF EPISCOPAL CHURCH
PLAINLY SET FORTH.
mo MINCING OF WORDS,

HIGH QUARTER's CHARGED.

Mission work In LHtin-American
Lands-It Sadly Needs Young Men.
Its supply of Funds Inadequate.
The Church Needs n Revival, n
New Baptism of the Holy Spirit
and Systematic instruction anc
Organization in Behalf of Mis-
sions.
Rochester, N. Y, Dec. THE Epis-
copal Missionary Conference came to
an end tonight.
The conference. in the opinion of
those who are closest in touch with
IL, has brought out distinctly the fol-
lowing things:
First. The Episcopal Church has a
pre-eminent call to mission work in
in-American lands.
Second. 1t sadly needs young men
for it's mission work, both at home and
abroad.
Third. Its present supply of funds
for prosecuting it's present mission
work, and for entering upon it's larger
opportunities is utterly inadequate.
Fourth. The laity and even some
of the bishops and clergy are respon-
sible for the apathy which prevails
throughout the church toward mis-
sions.
Fifth. The church at large needs a
revival, a fresh baptism of the Holy
Spirit and systematic instruction in or
der that zeal for mission work may be
aroused. stimulated and sustained,
Sixth. The men of the church should
be Systematically organized for the
purpose of coming to the aid of the
missionary cause and sharing the bur-
dens which have so long rested upon
the women and children.
There has been no effort to minimize
or gloss over these difficulties and
faults in the conference.

The LabOri-Reinaeh Affair Con-
tinues the Talk of Paris.
Paris, Dec. THE general expecta-
ton of sensational disclosures in
Maitre Labori's explanations of his
rupture with Dreyfus has thus far been
disappointed, as he announeesYtha his
lips are sealed by professional secrecy
from telling the story of the actual
breaking Of relations with the Dreyfus
family. His articles up to now have
taken the form of a personal polernic
against MN. Reinach and Bernard La
zare. but they have gone to show how
wide is the breach between Dreyfus
and Reinach and the formers cham
pions The friends Of both sides are
pained to read such letters as Lazare
writes to NJ. Labor, in which, declin-
ing to reply to certain illusions by the
latter, he says:
1T is unnecessary for me to help you
in throwing down your own statue. You
appear quite able to do the work your
self" s.
The anti Dreyfusard press naturally
exult over what they describe as a
with Machiavellian intention urge
Maitre Labor, now that he has been
thrown over by his ungrateful friends,
to reveal the whole supposed Drey-
fusard conspiracy against the army.
on the other hand NJ. Yves-Guyot, in
the 'Siecle,s says the adversaries of Drey-
fus are mistaken if they imagine that
any proof of his guilt viii emanate
from the polemics of his former
friends, but he repeats his prediction
that the Dreyfus affair will dominate
the elections of 1902, as it did those of
1898.
The accusation of Maj. Carriere that
governmental pressure had been put
upon him to plead in favor of the in
nocence of Dreyfus continues to be dis
cussed, and Gen. Gallifet to-day again
denied any part therein, and challenged
his. accusers to arraign him in the
high court.

MUCH ROYAL INFELICITY.
ScandaI-DuISe of Edinburgh's
Daughters Have Their Troubles.

Daughters Have Their Troubles.
London, Dec. THE domestic infeli
cities of European royalties have never
come so prominently before the public
as have to-day the difficulties of Queen
Wilhelmina of the Netherlands, the
dramatic circumstances of which form
one Of the chief topics of conversa-
ton. The romantic halo surrounding
the young Queen and the interest taken
in her marriage only help to accent
uate public curiosity and sympathy.
Moreover, it is realized that Holland S
scandal may have grave political con-
sequences for Europe, and hence it's de-
velopments are followed closely by
statesmen. While those best fitted to
judge incline to the belief that it will
all blow over for the present, there are
grave apprehensions for the future.
From a personal point of view. Eng
land is more deeply concerned in the
scandal going on in Hesse, where one
of Queen Victoria's granddaughters is
on the verge of separation from her
husband. This youthful marriage, the
Grand Duchess of Hesse was only IS
when she exchanged her British for a
cen Htinental- -tittIe,- has proved to he one
of the most unsatisfactory among all
the royal matches, and the climax. it
is believed, would have been reached
ere this had it not been for the late
Queen Nictoria's imperious influence.
The Duke of Edinburghs other daugh
ter, the Crown Princess of Roumania,
according to common report, also leads
a none too happy marital existence,
though rumors of an open rupture are
met with strenuous official denial.
However, no one in England would be
surprised to hear that she is figuring
in a role similar to that of her sister,
the Grand Duchesse of Hesse.

while Thomas f. Chapman, young
bridge apprentice on the Plant Sys-

near the water tank, he was shot from
ambush by an unknown negro. The
ball took effect in the thigh intiicting
a flesh wound, which is not thought to
be any ways serious, but is quite pain
full. AS soon as it became known that
he had been shot the white citizens
organized a posse and started to look
for the would-be assassin. They had
gotten but a short distance, when a
crowd supposed to be negroes opened
fire on the whites, whereupon the
whites returned the fire, wounding
three negroes. One negro named Rob-
erts had his arm broken and is wound
ed in the leg; also a negro woman was
wounded in the leg. A small negro
boy was shot in the thigh, but not
seriously. Excitement is running high

GERMAN TARIFF BILL
MAY REST IN COMMITTEE FOR
SEVERAL MONTHS.
OPPOSITION PLANS DELAY.
BUT GOVERNMENT COMMANDS
LARGE MAJORITY.

Russia and Austria-Hungary More
Directly Interested Than the
United Stntes-We Would suffer,
However, in Case of an Economic
War Between These Countries.
American Manager of Tool Works
in Berlin Demonstrates Remark
able Superiority of American
Over German Workmen.
Berlin, Dec. THE tariff bill goes
to the committee next week and no.
body expects Its temperance for
months. Herren, Bebel and Richter
and other opposition leaders have
agreed to delay the measure as long
as possible committee They are
determined to make a night on every
one of the GAG items. This well worn
form of parliamentary obstruction is
to be continued in the House after
the bill leaves the committee, and it
is quite possible that the final vote
viii not be reached until 1903, unless
the government offers compromise,
which is unlikely. The government.
being aware of the tactics ahead, is
considering changing the rules Of the
House so as to block the obstructive
tactics Of the opposition.
variety of estimates of the ma
jority for and against the bill are in
circulation. The general impression
is that the government commands a.
large majority.
1t is not the United States that the
government would be concerned about
should the tariff bill be put through in
It's present form, but Russia and Aus
tria- Hungary. 1t is the belief of the
foreign office that Germany is we'll able
to uphold her side should the United
States make reprisals. Russia and
Austria Hungary have already inform
ed Germany that they are not willing
to negotiate commercial treaties on the
basis of the pending tariff. These noti.
fications are considered equivalent to.
the declaration of an economic war; in
which the broad markets now open to
Germany will Immediately be closed
and the considerable volume of United
states products now finding its way to
Russia through German traders in
| consequence would be excluded with
German goods.
The manager OF an American tool
conpany's works In Berlin has made
remarkable comparison of t e wages
paid and cost OF tools made here with
the wages paid and cost of tools at the
American works, both sets of laborers
using identical machines He finds that
the American workmen, making an ex-
act allowance for the difference in
wages, turns out a clear 25 per cent
more product for the same unit of
wages. Man for man the German pro-
duces two-fifths of what an American
does. A shoe factory at Breslau, using
American machinery, secured better
results by importing eight American
workmen and paying them by the
piece, to stimulate the German work
men, who then came within 10 per cent.
of the Americans work
