ANSWERS THREE LONGINGS
Powerful Sermon Delivered Last
Evening by Evangelist
Lockhart.

Had ii been possible for the world
to have gradually grown better and
through the process of evolution reach
ed its ultimate goal, Jesus Christ
would not have come into the world.
But said Evangelist Lockhart last
night at Memorial Christian church,
the race had grown and developed as
far as it was possible with its limited
conceptions of God. \ new revelation
was needed, new vitaliZing, energiZ-
ing life was necessary. This God sent
to the world in the person of Jesus
Christ, the only begOtten of the Faith
er. He answers the three great long
ings of the human heart, from whence
did l come, what am | here for, and
whittier am l going
Thirty-TwO Conversions.
1t was a powerful appeal the evan
gelist made to the great audience to
seek Jesus Christ, TO follow the great
true king whose influence and power
is sweeping like a mighty flood through
the nations and at the close of the
service eight people went forward
seven to confess their faith in Jesus
Christ as the Son of God. Among the
50 who during the first three days
have taken a stand for Christ 80 have
been conversions. and embrace all
classes Several men last night con
fessed their faith in Christ.
A number of people were baptized
last night and tomorrow evening it is
expected that from 20 to 25 men and
women will be buried in baptism =
Tonight Evangelist Lockhart will
speak on the subject why was it
Necessary for Christ to Die?" Singing
Evangelist Garmong will sing and lead
the large chorus and orchestra. The
evangelists lay great stress on music
and last night more than half the ser
vice was given over to the music.
Regular Service Saturday Night
Mr. GarmOng is winning many
praises because of the sweet gospel
solos given. So intense is the inter
est in the opening meetings that it is
now planned to have the regular ser
vice on Saturday night

ing. M. Witte Will take passage on
the North German Lloyd steamer, the
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse, which sails
from Cherbourg July 26.
Sergius Witte, the Russian pIeni
potentiary may be regarded as the
leading Liberal statesman of Russia
For the last thirteen years he has
been one of the strongest PERSONAL
ties in the Russian bureaucracy al
though his political fortunes suffered
a setback when he was compelled to
resign the portfolio of minister OF
finance in August 1903, and again
when, after being appointed president
of the council of ministers in the same
month his Office gradually lost it's
Importance until rumor of his inten,
tion to resign and go abroad had been
persistently circulated Witte is about
56 years old and has steadily worked
his way up from the position of an
under-paid railroad clerk who occa,
sionally acted as porter to that of the
leading statesmen of Russia in spite
of the fact that his enemies are nu.
merous and include some Of the most
powerful men in Russia. A man OF
large stature, big-limbed and muscu.
lar, standing over feet high, Witte
has the reputation of being harsh to
his subordinates but his honesty and
ability have never been dOuted even
by his worst enemies. He was ere.
ated q count in 1901.

those received by the Illinois Trust

pany. The former reported approx
1mately $2,25O,OOO and the latter 81
100000. While the over subscription
was regarded as larger than that of
the previous loan, the subscribers were
different. This time banks and bank.
ing houses predominated, while for the
previous loan individual subscriptions
were more numerous. The banks this
time were heavy subscribers. The
bonds are selling at 911a. The sub
scription price for both loans was the

PLOT DISCOVERED
TO KILL THE CAR
$50 Pounds of Dynamite Found
Beneath His Castle.
POLICE MAKE MANY ARRETs
Emperor Nicholas Was Intending to
Stop at the Castle of IIinskje Dur
ing His Stay at Moscow, But He
Has Changed His Mind.

New York, July ia World dis
patch from London contains the fol-
lowing from the Vienna correspondent
to the Daily Mail:
Private letters from st. Petersburg
state that the police have discovered
elaborate preparations for blowing up
the castle of Ilinskoje, near Moscow,
where the car, with the imperial fam
lily, intended to take up a brief resi-
dence. Beneath the apartments des-
ignated for his majesty's use, a sub
terranean passage is said to have been
found leading to cellar where 250
pounds Of dynamite lay concealed. The
police have made many arrests, appre-
hending among others two engineers
who conducted the cleaning and deco
rating of the apartments at the castle.
This intelligence, associated with
the murder of Shuvaloff has made a
deep impression. The czar has now
given up all idea Of staying at Hin
skoje.

M. Muraieff Declines.

Paris, July 13.-The st. Petersburg
correspondent of the Echo De Paris,
states that the declination of M. Mu-
raieff to head the Russian peace mis-.
sion was based on partly the state of
his health and partly on the fact that
his allowance for expenses to cover
the period of his sojourn in America,
was only $4,000 roubles, which amount
he considered insufficient for the great
cost of living in the United States
M. Witte twice refused to become the
successor of M. Muraieff on the mis-.
sion on the ground that he did not
wish to be mere figurehead in the
transmission to Emperor Nicholas OF
the peace terms offered by Japan. His
selection, therefore, cannot but be TAX.
en- to mean that the emperor has
yielded to his insistance that real
powers plenipotentiary be conferred on
Russia's principal representative in the
peace commission

Quiet continues along the front, but
the japanese are still moving in Ko-

Changtafu. Information from the Jap
anese lines indicates that the rank and

To counteract this feeling Field Mar.

glowing appeals to the patriotism OF
his armies. The Chinese say that
decaying corpses buried in shallow
graves in frozen ground after the bat
tie of Mukden have created a terrible
condition. Plague and cholera are

LARGE Failure Affects Charleston.

Charleston, S. c., July 13.-Repre-
sentatives of the bankrupt Indepe-

city of Charleston and appointed July
rs, at Darlington, for a meeting of the
creditors. 1t is now estimated that
the liabilities will reach $80G,O00 and
the principal assets are number OF
mills and ginneries, which might not
bring one-third of that amount on the
block. Charleston is said to have
lost about $4,000 in the failure. 1t
is fully expected that the entire stock
issue of $1,00O,OOO will be wiped out.
The failure is far reaching and banks
have been hard hit in many eastern as
