In an humble little plot
Ambitions. hopes. and woes, and pains,
Beset you as you plod.

MEETING AT BUFFALO.
Presbyterians of the United States to
Discuss Important Question.

Buffalo, N. Y, May 19.-The 116th
general assembly of the Presbyterian
church of the United States convened
here to-day with very large attend
ance. There are in all TO commits
sioners entitled to seats in this gem
eral assembly, which is the court of
last resort of the Presbyterian body in
this country representing 100000
people, $4,000 congregations and 1900
ministers, some ministers having more
than one congregation.
One of the main questions to be con-
sidered is an overture from commit
tee Of the Cumberland church, which
seeded from the parent body in 1870
and was organized as separate
church. The secession was on doc
trinal and educational grounds. Pre-
destination and the educational auali-
tications for the ministry were among
the grounds of dissent.
The overture from the Cumberland
body made to a committee of which
the Rev DIR William Henry Roberts is
chairman looks to reunion with the
parent body. The plan of proposed
union will give rise to an interesting
debates While the Presbyterian gem
eral assembly Is meeting here, the
church will be simultaneously held at
Dallas, Tex.
Upon their decisions depend the
question whether the Cumberland
church shall be restored
to Christian fellowship with its mem
bership of $4,000, mostly in the south,
and southwest. upon this decision
also will depend the future mainten-
ance of separate colored church with
separate presbyteries as are now be-
ing maintained under the Cumberland
| jurisdiction.
a communication has been received
from the Springfield Presbytery re-
questing that the report of the COM
mittee in the matter be recommitted
until action has been taken concerning
certain Of the, proposed grounds of
amalgamation. 1t is thought by some
that the terms in the proposed agree
! ment are likely to defeat its purpose.
Educational endeavor will also have a
prominent place in the discussion. as
| will the ritual
1t is probable that form Of ritual
VIII be adopted which may be regard
ed as official for the church, but the
use Of which will be left entirely ~
the wishes OF the congregation.

John Yankus. who was taken to
jail quite recently for creating dis
turbance in the Brooklyn district, is
making all kinds Of trouble for Sher~
if Durham and his keepers. Yankus
is in the Jail hospital. though what his
ailment is none of the jail officials
seem to know. only that he refuses to
eat, speak or do anything for himself
He is the most obstinate prisoner the
jailers have had to contend with in
some time, When he at first refused
to eat, his jailers thought he was
merely in sulks or trying to deceive
them, but when several days went by
and he still declined to eat or hold
any intercourse whatever with them
they became alarmed and notified the
physician. He, however, has failed
to open the mans mouth. practically
speaking. The officials are anxiously
awaiting developments.

the necessity for all the governments
continuing the policy of constantly i'm
pressing Pekin with the advisability of
preserving strict neutrality. The for
eign minister desires that China shall
not only be officially neutral, but that
there shall be on interference on the
part Of her people, and he believes the
latter point can be assured If violations
Of the imperial proclamations are
swiftly punished. The minister. has
forgotten the supineness of the i'm
perial government in 1900, which per-
lnitted the Boxer movement to spread
until 1t implicated the court and re-
quired international intervention.
The views cf the Russian foreign
minister are regarded as significant.
especially as they follow the renewed
assurances Of the Chinese minister.
The military expert of the Novoe
yremya expressed this morning an
opinion, which is slowly crystallzing
here. that the attitude of the Chinese
authorities and the activity Of the Chi
nese bandits are tantamount to state
of war.
"It is the worst kind of a war" says
the expert, +'since it is cloaked by
hypocritical neutrality Russia is now
warning In a hostile country"

Seoul, May 10, p. m.-The Korean
government has annulled the Russian

cessions, granted in 1896. The Rus
sian companies interested We're backed
by M. Bezobrazotf, (the friend Of Vice
roy Alexieff, and reputed moving sDir-
1t of the Russian war party, and
many Russian noblemen. There have
been frequent differences between the
Russian seIni-otficial concerns and the
private Japanese lumbermen, which
constituted one Of the annoyances
which indirectly led to the war. Ko-
rea, in severing diplomatic relations
with st Petersburg, has not felt
bound to respect Russian commercial
contracts.
1t was announced May 6 from Toxic
that Korea had recalled her minister

MANY CONFERENCES.
Illinois Republicans Talked Up New
Combination Last Night.

Springfield Ill, Nay Id Delegates
10 the republican state convention ex.
pected no nomination for governor to-
day. Conferences held during the night
mad for their purpose combination to
nominate Hamlin This movement is
said to have had the influence 4of SEN
ator Cullom back of it and to have had
the moral support of Speaker Cannon.
The combination contemplated the
union of the Deneen-Hamlin-S Sherman
forces with accessions from Lowden's
country delegates sufficient to NOM
mate. The most strenuous efforts,
however apparently failed to secure
enough delegates to assure the success
Of the plan AS a result 1t was thought
improbable that d shift to Hamlin
would occur to-day.
The Yates people did nothing during
the night in the way of attempting
combinations. They decided merely to
''stand pat' until the opposition ex-
hausted all efforts at combinations.
The forty-eighth. forty-ninth and
fiftieth ballots showed no material
change in the standing of the candi-
dates: The fiftieth ballot resulted as
follows: Yates 1856, Deneen 431h,
Lowden 3S91a, Hamlin 113, Warner
40 and Pierce 3D. After this ballot
was taken recess was taken until 3
o'clock.

stone that is being taken up on Bald

ley tracks on the part Of the street
south of Stone street, Instead Of cart
ing 1t away and throwing 1t in the

up the appeal of May, Gertrude and

father, the late Martin Mitchell They
also contend that when he made this

due influence they would have been
left larger portion OF his estate. Att

FRANCE TO ACT.
Result Of Popes Protest
May be Withdrawal of
Ambassador.

Paris, May 19.-The council Of min
listers assembled in extraordinary ses-
sion at noon to-day to consider the
action to be taken relative to the
pope's protest against President Lou
bets visit to Rome. AS the version of
the protest forwarded to the gov
ernments having relations with the
vatican differs from that forwarded to
the French government 1t was decided
to first ascertain definitely what repre-
sentations the vatican made to the for
eign governments. The council also
agreed on the steps to be taken when
the exact character OF the foreign pro-
test is ascertained. An official com
munication to the press says the min
isters are in accord upon the steps. but
does not give the nature of the expect
ed action. There is reason to believe,
however, that. NJ. Nisard, the ambassa-
dor of France to the vatican, may be
granted leave from his post as a
means of expressing his governments
disaproval.
Later 1t became known that M. Nj.
sard's recall had been decided upon if
the authenticity of the protest for.
warded to the foreign powers was es.
tablished. This practically secures the
ambassadors recall, as little or no
doubt exists relative to the protest for,
warded to the powers. The effect OF
the> ambassadors recall will be to in.
terrupt diplomatic relations between
France and the vatican.
