REVIEWS THE FUTURE.

Bishop Hamilton reviewed the relg-

cisco and assured his hearers that he
heartily co-Operated with them in their
plans. This, he said. was a day of great
things. Of great thought and move
ments and achievements. and, he said,
there was never time when even the
ambition Of writers was TO make more
ri the little things Of life. to illumine
them in thought and in sympathy In
this q &c they were all profoundly stir
red by teachings and q sympathetic
story. he held, even touched the whole
people.
Bishop Hamilton told his interested
audience that he brought 10 them
greetings from the great annual gath
erings now being held beyond the Mis-
sissippi. and so far as the influence Of
the Methodist Episcopal church was
concerned he said that they had never
come TO perfectly appreciate their
greatness until the ceremonies attend
ing the centenary Of Wesley when
they heard people speak Of them as
they had never dared speak of them
selves He. made the statement that
the offerings of the missionary societies
alone for the present year amounted to
81 $50 Sc.
The Bishop said that that sum did
not include either the educational Of
ferings or church extension, which
when added increased the sum to
s.. .O0O. 600. besides the local support
given the churches. colleges and phil
anthropic movements.

1t is generally understood that several
persons who lost at the gaming tables
were approached by persons who were
willing to pay back part or all of the
losses provided the persons would not
appear as witnesses against the gam
blers.
This move was blocked by County At
torney Hungate who has the names of
sixty persons whom he can call as wit
nesses if he needs them. If the gam
blers intended to pay back the losses to
each one of the sixty to secure their
promise to keep quiet, the gamblers will
have to open a national bank and keep

STICKNE'S PROMISE.
Says He Will Withdraw Omaha Rate
When Missouri Pacific Is Good.

Kansas City, Mo-, Nov. 28.-Commis-
sioper Trickett of the transportation
bureau, Chairman Carkener of the
Board of Trade Transportation COM
pany and other members of this commit
tee returned from st. Paul with what
they consider a definite promise from
President Stickney of the Great West
ern to withdraw the scent reduction on
the proportional grain rate from Oma-

to the same basis as that to Kansas
City. They say Mr. Stickney promised
to put the rate back as soon as the
grain men could get the Missouri Pa

putting in a proportional from Missouri
river points to the gulf A telegram
from Traffic Manager Lincoln late to-
day said that if the Great Western
would readjust its rate the Missouri

The Kansas City men did not have
to make a direct threat of boycott on
the Maple Leaf by Kansas City indus
tries. In fact, after they talked over
the affair with Mr.. Stickney and Traffic
Manager Stohr the Maple Leaf men
seemed willing to get out of the rate
fight they had precipitated. Under the
agreement the new rate should be pub

seemed worried, the grain men said
over the complications that would con-
front them in Omaha when the Omaha
people learn that the rate on which they
based hopes of building up a big grain
market is to be taken away.
