PREPARING NEW PREsENrMENT

Bishop Talbot's Aceusers Fastening
Work On Necessary Papers.
New York, Jan. 1T was learned
that new presentment against Bishop
Talbot, of the Central Pennsylvania
diocese of the Protestant Episcopal
church. is now being prepared by at
torneys in Philadelphia. The work is
being fastened, and it is believed that
the necessary papers will be ready to
be signed within two weeks.
The presentment will be based
chiefly on the charges contained in the
first one, which has been withdrawn.
It will be signed By o number of per
SONS in Bishop Talbots diocese and
will then be brought to New York.
where other signatures will be affixed
It is not known just when the new
presentment will be filed, as the inten-
ton is to give Bishop Talbot a rea-
sonable time in which to bring his
case before the house of bishops. If he
should decide not to take such action
the presentment will be filed, it was
stated by one familiar with the case.

NOMINATION OF Negro Collector OF OH5-
toms Acted On BY Senate.
Washington, Jan. 1.-The nomina-
ton Of w. D. Crum, a negro, to be
collector of the customs for the port OF
Charleston, S. c., was confirmed by
tho senate in executive session by q
vote OF 33 to H. Crum had been nomi-
mated by the president three times, and
in addition had received three recess
appointments. He is now serving I'M
der the last of these recess appoint
ments. Confirmation was opposed by
Senator Tillman. who objected 20 the
appointment Of a negro.
Senator Tillman made a speech de-
voted almost entirely to the question
Of the constitutional right Of the presi-
dent to make a recess appointment
when no actual recess had occurred,
the senate having adjourned one ses-
sion and begun another at noon Of the
same day. He introduced at the last
session of congress a resolution on the
subject Of constructive recesses, which
was referred to the committee on the
judiciary. Senator Plat, of Connecti-
cut, chairman of that committee, said
the resolution had been referred to a
subcommittee and that he expected a
report would be made later.
When Crum receives his commission
ne will be entitled 10 receive the SAL
airy which has accumulated since his
first appointment.

Wilkesbarre, Pa. Jan. ~ A fire
which broke out in the little town of
Broderick, about FIVE miles from this
city, during a heavy gale of wind,
threatened the entire destruction OF the
town, together with a huge breaker.
The town has no fire protection, and
a general alarm was turned in at the
neighboring towns. The Luzerne fire
department responded and confined the
flames to a double and single dwelling.
These, with their contents, were de-
stroyed. Loss about $4,000.
Two children Of Peter Smith, occu-

broke out, are missing. and it is sup
