gardless of legislation, ,cil regulate the
trusts"
With that sentiment, Sunday eve
ming, March 10th, President Hadley
of Yale University startled congre-
cation largely made up of the richest
church society in New England-the
Old South. President Hadley de-
liyered the third in course of Lentcn
addresses in the Old South by college
Presidents, and his specific topic was
The Development of Public Con-
SCIENCE" He said:
sHow do things stand as regards
the need of a public conscience in
this country to-day? The American
standard of personal morality is, on
the whole, high, as compared with
other nations and other ages. We
have developed personal virtues
through individual conscience very
well.
'But our actions IN politics and in q
social and business sense prOred oar moral
standards IN these directions desperately
lou.
There is an appalling contrast be-
tween our methods of dealing with
each other as individuals and the low
standard observed in dealings between
different parts OF the whole organiza-
tion of society. Competition used to
prevent man from practicing great
extortion upon his neighbors, even if
he wanted to, and in politics we once
had at least a rough form of relative
justice.
"Bad to-day, nth or industries orga-
ganized into trusts and the inperialistic
spirit dereloping in politics, the general

higher standard Of morality than erer
before.
Legislation will never protect us
from the evils of trusts or of deterior-
ated politics. The essence of trust
is that you must trust the head Of it
to exercise his power wisely or to
abuse it, according to the kind of
conscience he possesses.
Trusts have got to be regulated by
public sentiment, and that public
sentiment is not merely the opinion
OF any particular part of the whole
people, but is a readiness to accept, in
behalf of the community, restrictions,
independent of the question of wheth-
er you or shall be personally harmed
by these restrictions.
"You say the community will not
be governed by this principle. We
must expect that the community will,
however, for the alternative is an EN-

five years. Public affairs can no longer
be played as a game, but must be di-
rected by an intelligent and active
public concience. Individual effort is
helpless and hopeless.
This is the opportunity of the
Church, hungry for something to do.
Its function as a dissemination of in
formation has been appropriated
largely by the press
1.-The Church has the sympathy OF
the best men and must proceed to
make Christianity and patriotism
synonymous and both synonymous of
the worlds progress.
1.-THE public conscience must be
awakened as, nineteen hundred years
ago, Christ awakened it, and it can be
done if we continue to preach the
Gospel which he preached"

Picking, March IA general meet
ing of the foreign ministers was held
Tuesday. at which the reports of the
committees were heard. Regarding
more punishment of the Chinese con-
nected with the Boxers, there is

ing that they be tried for completely

found guilty. in such manner as the
Chinese themselves see fit, except in
the case of six men. who. the min
listers think, should be executed.
The Indemnity Claims.
The report of the committee on the
general principles on which indemn-
ity claims should be considered was
adopted. Those claims which are
palpably unjust will be disallowed.
Mr.. Rockhill's proposition provid-
ing for daily meetings of the minis
tiers will be followed so far as prac-

able to attend meetings, the meet
ing will not take place. Otherwise
the meetings will occur daily.
The report of the committee on the

ably be considered Wednesday
Though the committee has declined
to notify the Chinese owners of prop

claims of the ministers probably will

volved is added to the total of the
general indemnity.
The ministers will soon meet
Prince Ching and Ii Hung Chang to
consider questions regarding public
buildings and grounds.

JIM BROWN PROVES AN ELUSIVE OBJECT The Negro AssauIter is Still Beyond His Hunters CROWDS ARE YET PURSUING Armed Men Are Hopeful That He Will Be caueht-ExcItement Near
 Brompton Over Wrong
 Negro.
CROWDS ARE YET PURSUING

Although hunted as a rattlesnake by hundreds of armed and determined men. vigilant and angry. the negro who com mitted the dastardly assault upon Miss Garrett near sprinxville Tuesday has not yet been found The posses of searchers are still hopeful. and every hour of the day and night is spent in thrashing through the woods and mountains near the city looking for the brute.
 The wonderful way in which he has succeeded in eluding the large crowds of hunters almost gives rise in the minds of some that the body of Jim Brown, the alleged assaulter, bears charm. Several times he has been almost in the hands of his pursuers. but each time the grasp was just little too late. At Irondale Thursday his hunters fired at him sev- eral times, but he managed to save his life and lost himself while still in sight of the firing line.
 Several times he has been so nearly caught that he has been forced to drop articles of clothing Near Irondale his ex- citement caused him to leave coat and vest in the pockets of which was money, and at another time he lost a knife; yet he Is still at large.
 The country is yet being fairly secured for him, and 1t seems almost improbable that he will be able to keep without the clutches of his pursuers much longer. With a reward of $240 hanging over his head and an excited country neighbor- hood added to hundreds of officers watching for him with careful vigilance it is argued that he must be caught.
 Quite a stir of excitement was crea- ted yesterday afternon by the telegraph operator at Brompton. small station near Leeds on the Southern Railroad, wiring that a negro thought to be Jim Brown had been arrested and had barely escaped lynching.
 When he first telegraphed to the city he said the negro was the right man and that the citizens who had him were pre- pairing to lynch him. Later he wired that the negro was not the right one, and that he had been whipped and turned loose.
 The negro had a hard time in convincing the mob of his innocence, and it is said, the citizens were so enraged that they not only whipped him, but that they threw him into the river and told him to swim to the other side. This he succeeded in doing.
