The d. X. Il. Alumni association or
Rhode Island held its 2lst annual re-
union at the University club last even
ing, about 50 members OF the fraternity
being present, including graduates
Of Brown, vale, Amherst and other col
iege&
Among those present and speaking
were Governor Gsrvin. a member Of the
Amherst chapter. Chief Justice stiness,
ex-Congressman Lapham and Captain
Archibald C. Matteson.
sGovernor Garvin spoke entertainly and
referred In unmeasured terms TO the do
ings of the general assembly at yester-
days session. He spoke In part as fol-
lows, after an Introduction In which he
referred TO his Alma Mater and the
standing Of the ID. X. Il. at Amherst
when he was a student there and at the
present time:

HIS CHARACTER
Dr.. Faunce Addresses Boston
People on Roger Williams.

Rev DR.. Faunce. president of Brown
university. delivered a very interesting
address at the First church. Berkeley
street. Boston, Thursday. TO very ap-
preciative audience. his subject being
Roger Williams and His Lively Ex-
pertinent"
The founder OF Providence plantations
was set before the audience as a man
OF personal lovableness and no ordinary
power" as one having "a sturdy physique
and indomitable energy" and 'unarmed
save with his tremendous convictions"
Though his faults were obvious and in
cessant." said the speaker, 'he yet had
to be recokened with. and, being dead, he
President Faunce spoke in part as fol-
lows
There are two opposing judgments
about Roger Williams. and this diversity
has even tended 10 become a source OF
division between Massachusetts and
Rhode Island.
"Accusers have tried TO show that ne

an Ishmaehte with his hand against
every man. and that colony strugglinS
for its existence could not tolerate such q
person. On the other hand. IL Is main
tained that Roger Williams has been mis-
represented, that he was a MARTYR TO
the doctrine OF the freedom Of conscience
In the new worid--and that. though there
eccentric ard alarming, the real nature
OF the trouble was that he was two CEN
turies ahead of his time"
For what he called the most judicial
decision about Roger Williams, Dr;

sentence from the latter: To approve
or condemn Massa chusetts or Williams is

Many Large Cargoss Now on
tho Ocean, Providence Bound.
ALL SUBJECT TO The REBATE.
Most Of tho Coal VIII Be Discharged at
WIikeshans Pier, One Of the Best
10 the Country.

The rebate act Of congress whereby oil
duties collected on foreign coal will be re-
turned to the payers. will have quite an
effect on the local market and will keep
things at the custom house moving for Q
while ut least.
A large fleet OF steamers loaded with
thousands of tons or foreign coal 10 now
on Its way to this port and arrivals can
be looked for about every other day. One
Boston nrm alone has II large steamers
chartered to bring coal to Providence,
and OF these 10 or l2 are now on the
ocean bound for this city, with the
others all but ready for sailing.
The coal on these steamers. probably
$1,000 tons or more. will h. pay the
regular duty OF 81 cents ton, or total
in the neighborhood of $4,000 This duty
will be collected at the custom house in
this city, and later when the details Of
the transaction have been worked out the
money will be returned.
This great influx of foreign. duty-pay-
ing goods. will In itself present a lively
problem to the custom house clerks. in
addition to their regular duties. but when
the process has been gone all over again
and the money paid back. there will be
work for somebody.
So far but one foreign steamer with
coal has arrived in the harbor since the
act was approved by the president, the
Magdala. having arrived yesterday from
Hull with 400 tons Of coal. The Magdala
was n days on the passage and met with
much stormy weather.
BY the good fortune OF the steamer to
arrive In this port after the approval OF
the rebate act, the consignees OF tho
cargo are saved $2.s16, the sum that will
have to be paid In duties, but which will
be returned
Up to the present time the collector Of
the port has received no ofncial noti-
fication Of the passage OF the act.
1t is probable that a greater portion, II
not all. Of the foreign coal will be un-
loaded at WiIkesbarre pier. this pier be-
ing recognized as one OF the best equip
ped In the country and one where car
goes can be unloaded in the shortest pos
sble time.
Captain Williams OF the British steam
er Amberton, which was discharged OF a
large cargo at the pier recently. said
port on the Atlantic coast. but had never
seen a pier where such exceptionable IA
clities for discharging coal existed.
The unusually long list OF vessels ar
riving here and 10 arrive, with the hun
dreds Of thousands OF tons shipped
through this city for points In northern
New England. points to the ultimate su-
premacy OF Providence as coal port.
and the imperative necessity of making
available the grand possibilities OF the
harbor for carrying on the business
which Is certain to come.

easy; to understand them both is q
worthier task"
AT that time" continued the speaker.
''all Christian governments held that the
union OF church and state was necessary
TO the safety OF the state and the preser-
walton OF the church. For 1000 years this
doctrine had been entrenching itself in
Christendom. and II was practically un-
questioned by the powers OF the world.
The sane Judgment Is that Roger VIII
liams offended against the theocracy,
both by his religious opinions and by GER
tain OF his opinions, which were ethical-
political, his offence on the score OF re-
iiglun being primary and funda mental,
and that on the score OF politics Incl
dental and contributory
'He brought to Massachusetts the doc
trine OF soul liberty. which was far more
than doctrine OF liberation, though AT
that time not one man In 100 seems TO

demanded equal religious rights for the

liberation expedient, but because he held
tho inherent right OF every human soul 10
