ORDER OF BRT7H ABRAHAM
Officers Decide to Take Action Regard
 Ing Insurance violations.

New York, Jan. 5.-The Order of Brith Abraham, which had such stormy session at the Grand Central palace last Sunday when trying to fix the responsibility for an alleged short age in the lodges funds, did not hold another mass meeting to-day.
 Officers of several of the lodges met at the residence of Charles Dushkind, lawyer An important feature of the order is it's life insurance. It was de- cided that the laws governing life insur- anec had been violated and therefore it was determined to draft resolutions setting forth all the information the complaining lodges have upon these violations, and to present it to the com missioner of insurance.
 With the resolution is request that the commissioner investigate the charges with a view to learn and pun ish whoever is guilty. MT. Dushknd said that the shortage which amounts to $6,00O so far might spread to $26,000 before the investigation was finished.

IN HONOR OF LINCOLN.
Appeal Issued to Cong. Churches to Ob-
 serve His Birthday.

New York, Jan. 1.-The American Missionary association has issued an appeal to the Congregational churches of the country to observe Sunday, Feb ruary g, as memorial of Abraham Lin- coin, whose birthday is February 12. The churches. and especially their Sab bath schools and Endeavor societies, are urged to emphasize Christian pa triotism.
 Abraham Lincoln" says this appeal, was born in the mountains of the south, where schools and churches have been established by this association. The negroes have grown into a great multitude of more than 8,000,000, among whom this association has planted its institutions and missions. Through its missionaries the colored people are be- ing trained in shop on the farm in the school and church and home, for safe citizenship and Christian responsibility. President Lincoln urged the kind and Christian treatm of the Indians. The negro and Indian departments of mis- sionary work carried by this associa- tion are, therefore, naturally suggested by his name"

SUNDAY EYCISE L4W ENFORCED.
First Work of New York Police Under
 the New vAdministration.

New York, Jan 5.-Tfe Sunday excise laws were more strictly enforced in Greater New York to-day than has been the custom, though there was no order from police headquarters bearing directly on the subjectr and this was by no means a dry" Sunday. It was more like the Brooklyn" Sunday that obtained when Colonel Partridge, the new police commissioner, was commits sioner of police in that city before con- solidation.
 It was expected, both by the police and the saloonkeepars, that orders would be given by Colonel Partridge on Saturday to close all the saloons to-day. When he omitted to issue any order and remained silent the saloon men and the police were mystified. The inspec- tors in Manhattan, however, did not know what to do. They called on the commissioner and asked him what he wanted them to do in reference to the saloons. The commissioner asked them if they remembered the speech he made to them New Years day. Part of this speech was:
 q believe that the best way to check evils of gambling in it's various forms is to Strike first at those places which have for the longest time, and in the most persistent manner, defied the law; at those liquor saloons which are known to harbor professional criminals and to encourage openly vice in it's various forms and at disorderly houses notori- ous for rioting, debauchery and to which young girls are enticed and ru- ined When such as these have been thoroughly attended to it will be time to consider what to do next"
 The inspectors remembered this and followed the line laid down and so h. structed the captains who in turn is- sued orders to the men of the force. In consequence the better class of sa- loon men instructed their bartenders and walters that no noisy customers were to be allowed in the place. The lower class of saloons and resorts re- ceived another kind of order from tne police They were told to close up. After generalization and demanding to know why their neiehbor would be all lowed to keep open they were told, and then they closed up and remained closed during the day. The Ralnes law hotels were very careful to issue the usual sandwich with each drink.
 The consensus of opinion among the saloonkeepe was that the idea of Col onel Partridge was a success and the first appearance of the Brooklyn Sun day" was declared to have made hit.

AFFAIRS IN HA WAIT.
Opposition to WiIcox's Leper Biii-
 Worlds Record Rain Fall.

Correspondence of the Associated Pressl
 Honolulu, Dec. 2S, via San Francisco, Jan. 1.-The bill introduced in congress by Delegate Wilcox, providing for d national leper settlement on the Island of Molokai, was surprise here, as the matter had not been discussed in Ha- Waii since Congressman Kahn, of Cali fornia, proposed a similar scheme a year ago. At that time the plan arous- ed strong opposition in Hawaii, and now it is criticised with equal vigor. The plan is greatly objected to by local papers, though some of the home rulers appear to favor it on the ground that it will save Hawaii the expense of main taining the leper settlement.
 Collector of Customs Stackable has received orders from Washington to ad- init importations from the Philippines free of duty. As result about 100000 here in bond, will be allowed to enter free.
 Unofficial reports from Papaalata, Is- land of Hawaii, state that last Wednes- day forty inches of rain fell in twenty four hours. Professor Lyons, of the government observatory, says that this is a worlds record, but he discredits the report. From another district a fall of ten inches in five hours is re- ported, and throughout the islands there were heavy rains. A few wash outs occurred, but there was no serious damage.

TO SUPPLY GAS TO PARIS.
Report That the Rockefellers Intend to
 Ask Concessions.

Paris, Jan. 5.--La Liberte has pub lished a report to the effect that the Rockefellers intend to apply for con- cesson to supply gas to the city of Paris.
 The paper vigorously opposes this scheme and says it would be an act of mental alteration to accept such a proposition, which would be disastrous to national production and a powerful help to the designs of Americans who wish not only to expel foreign industry from their own country, but who seek to supplant foreigners on their own ground. La Liberte says the Rockefel lers would not use ton of French coal and that the granting of this con- cession to them would be a mighty weapon for the realization of the eco- homie schemes of American imperialism in Europe

4 SPLIT VICTORY IN ono.
Foraker Wins in the senate, Hanna in the House.

Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 1.-The republi- can caucus last night nominated the Foraker ticket for the senate and the Hanna ticket for the house. The con- test was continued to-day on the same lines over the makeup of the standing committees, and it is evident that the chairmanships and preferred places will go the same way as the offices. Price, who was defeated for speaker by Me Kinnon, will be shown consideration as chairman of the judiciary commit tee, and the chairmanship of one or the committees on municipal affairs, in def erence to George B. Cox, will go to some member from Cincinnati, but the courtesy will not be extended further.
 The senate committees are being ap- portioned by special committee on the lines of the republican caucus, with the democrats cooperating.
 As the liquor associations threw their influence to Price, that interest is now attempting a fusion of the democrats with such republicans as are opposed to local bills.
 SeudlOI T OldhSi lS ilOe S-NPSNASN i'NA v until next week, when all the commit tees will be made up. It is proposed, therefore, to have a demonstration in the interest of harmony On Tuesday of next week the two houses will vote separately for United States senator, and the next day, in joint session, they will declare the result. Then Foraker is expected to make a speech of accept ance. As he was endorsed by resolu- tion at the last state convention for re- election, the republican joint senatorial caucus this week will be merely for mai affair.
 Mayor Tom L. Johnson, who came here yesterday with the Cayuhoga dele gation to attend the opening of the leg islature, has returned to Cleveland to meet William J. Bryan.

IMPETUS TO ZIONIST MOVEMENT.
Given at Mass Meeting in Chicago Yesterday.

Chicago, Jan. 5.-Impetus to the movement to establish the Jewish race once more in Palestine was given to- night at a mass meeting of the Iionists at the Mednah Temple theater. Two thousand Hebrews, for the most part supporters of the plan to open again the promised land for the chosen neople crowded the hall. The meeting was in connection with the annual convention of Western Zionists, whose organization embraces ten states. The plan determined upon at the Basic, Switzerland, conference, was outlined bv Leon Zolotkoff grand master of the Knights of Zion, who said that the idea was to create a legally assured home for the Jews, and refuge for Jews who cannot be assimilated by the peo- ple among whom they now live. Rabbi Emil G. Hirsch gave his views on the proposed movement.
 He said in part: 'I agree with you that the condition of 100000 Jews in Russia, Roumania and Galicia is blot on civilization and cries out to heaven for redress.
 "I also agree with you that if these Jews say LDdl they nave lO COuHtly, they are justified What flag is theirs? They must pay blood taxes to the czar, yet they are not treated as subjects. Tn Roumania they are declared to be aliens. The fault lies with the gov ernments of Russia, Roumania and Ga licia
 Shall we call them to America? I would gladly do so if their coming would be solution of the problem. But it would not be. From the prey of Rus sia to the sweat shops of America does not spell redemption. If your plan will offer a solution, take him to Palestine, and I will be with you, and we will all work together.
 q further agree to the proposition that in case the majority of the popu- Iation in Palestine is Jewish they shall have the right to determine their own form of government. l agree further that a government established by them would be in accordance with the prin-

wyn1 ASK ron FUND OF $1oo,ooo.
Newly Consecrated Episcopal Bishop of
 Phiiipptucs Wants This sum.

Boston, Jan. 5.-The announcement was made to-day by Right Rev. Charles H Brent D. D., formerly rector of St, Stephens church, this city, who was consecrated bishop of the Philippine islands last month by the Episcopal church, that he had decided to issue an appeal to the church in the United States for a fund of $100,000 with which to endow the new jurisdiction.
 Bishop Brent made the announce ment in 8 sermon which he preached this morning at the church of the Ad- yentists He took occasion to explain more fully than he has done hitherto concerning the plans he had in view. It is proposed to use the income from an endowment fund in the maintenance of a staff of assistants which the bishop hopes to take with him when he leaves early in the spring for Man. fla. He also proposes to erect Com- modious and permanent church building with complete equipment at Manila but the cost of this, part of which has al- ready been contributed, will be raised independent from the endowment fund.
 Bishop Brent stated that the situa- ton in the Philippine islands is the most difficult which the Episcopal church has to meet the world over, due to the fact that the Roman Catholic church has long held sway. The Epis- copal church did not Ill any sense pro pose to enter upon the work of prose- lytizing, but would receive those wor- thy who declined to accept the sacra- ments of the older body. The bishop proposed to devoted much of his time and attention to those arriving from the United States to settle in the new 1loSsessionS.

 Htghwood.

On the floor below was a coal stove, and the gas from this, escaping from the f1ueI through the open stove-pipe hole, filed the room above.
 Young Osborn wakened during the night and found the room full of gas.4 He was already greatly affected by the gas and found that while his compan- ion. young Grove was not unconscious, he was so badly affected by the gas that he was unable to move. Osborn called for help and other persons in the house responded. They carried Grove downstairs, but Osborn was able to walk. pr. Hotchkiss, of Shelton ave- nue. was called and found that neither of the young men was in serious con- dition. although had they remained much longer in the room they Would probably have been overcome.
