cording to advices from Dawson Of May

Cottage City. arriving today, the Yukon
river at Dawson is clear of ice. On the
afternoon of the 18th thousands of people
were attracted tc the river front by the
cracking ice. which was heard for miles.
The scene was awe-inspiring and business
of the Klondike metropolis was suspend
ed &c accumulated in the river above the
city to a considerable heigth and so
great became the pressure that the Ice
in front of the city gave way and with a
rear and rush 1t soon disappeared and
formed large jam about a mile below
Dawson.

smallpox. Steamers arriving at Skag-

Interest in Greed Revision Is Crop

Philadelphia, May 22.-That creed revis-
ion is the leading issue Of the Presbyter-
ion general assembly was strongly evil
denced during today's sessions, when al
most every speaker took occasion to men
ton the subject during the course of his
address. Shortly before adjournment Rev.
Richard holmes o. Pittsburg startled the
commissioners by launching into a discus
sion of the question, but when he stopped
long enough to announce that he was sim
ply leading up to point in connection
with his appeal for assistance in remov-
ing the mortgage from the New York
Presbyterian building no objection was
offered. a motion was made to hold the
meeting of the assembly during the de-
bate on revision at the Academy Of Ma,
sic. but was not acted upon, as the order
of the day took precedence. The COM
mittee on church policy presented a re-
port containing numerous decisions on
overtures submitted by various presby-
teries. A factional disturbance in the
Church of the Covenant at WHliamsport,
Pa. which had been referred to the judi
cial committee, was ordered tried accord
ing to the provisions of the book of dis
cipline. IN a stirring address Robert Z.

Grand Rapids's batters went down in
Cne-two-three order in the first seven in

The first runs were made in the fourth by
the visitors. when Shannon walked and
Kelly got a lift on a tumble by Hannivan.
a single by Heydon and an out let in both

one going to the bleachers, allowing Flynn

Indianapolis the game. A tumble by Flynn
and Heydon's juggie of a bunt, followed by
