coNGREGATIoNALIsr HOME
MISSIONARY WORK.
Total Receipts for the Year Amounted
to S698,o00.

Boston. Oct. s17.-Ail sections OF the
United States came in for criticism
to methods of carrying on home
missions and missionary work in the
sessions today of the National Home
Missionary society in connection with
the fourteenth of the triennial meet
ing of the national council of Congre-
gational churches in the United States.
Rev. S. HI. Woodrow of Washington,
D. c., was elected president of the
Home Missionary society. The total
receipts for the year. according to the
secretary's report, amounted to $685.
600.
Under the head of "rhe Cheering
outlook for 1nterdenominational Co
operation at the Congregationalist
Home Missionary society session in the
late afternoon Judge Alfred Colt of
New London. Conn, gave report on
the Colorado Investigation.
He said:
1T was found II per cent. of all
home missionary grants went to fields
where there is but one church and that
77.S per cent. goes to the largest nine
cities and towns. There are whole
counties with almost no churches.
Such state of things is deplorable. IL
conditions in Colorado are at all typi-
cal of the great western and south
western country"

Over the waste of the Atlantic, in a
position which can only be broadly aD-
proximated as somewhere off the coast
of New England or Nova Scotia, wal
ter Wellman's airship America is IN
ell probability pursuing its lonely flight
in the general direction of the northern
steamship lane whose ultima thule IS
the British Isles.
Still Pointing Toward Their Goal.
in the absence of any direct word
from the navigators or of any positive
Information whatever since Sunday
noon as to their fate. the most reason
sble conjecture in the minds of their
friends and supporters is that they are
still pointing toward their goal. 1t is
the natural contention that lack of
definite news by no means detracts
from the hopeful outlook and that the
failure to receive a message implies
merely that either no steamship has
come within the Americas wireless ra-
dfus or that she Is conserving her cleo
1rical resources for a supreme struggle
against obstacles to come.
Should Make Sable Island Tonight.
As nearly as can be computed, the
great balloon. if ii has met no unto
ward accident ought to be in the neigh
i,orhood of Sable Island some time to-
night with Cape Race, $50 miles away,
&c the next and last stage in the voy-
age before the final turn across the
open seas.

LOSS WILL AGGREGATE
MANY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
Cuban Republic May Be Compelled to
Request International Aid.

Havana. Oct. 1.-THE island of Gu
ba has probably sustained the great
est material disaster in all her history
in the practically continuous cyclone
which began with light rains on Thurs
day morning, developing into torren-
tial floods and devastating hurricanes
and continuing until this evening. The
western half of the island suffered
more severely than the east.
1t is impossible to estimate even
roughly the amount of the damage,
which doubtless will aggregate many
millions of dollars. In addition to the
great destruction to sugar and tobac-
co plantations, many thousands Of
peasants in the three western provinces
have been rendered homeless and des-
titute by the loss of their homes and
the food crops. 1t now seems probable
that the republic may be compelled TO
request international aid for the relief
of these sufferers, whose condition is
most deplorable. In the city of Havana
the losses probably will exceed a mil
lion dollars.
Conditions from .Artemisa to Cape
San Antonio, it is stated, are even
worse than in the territory explored by
Consul Rodgers. All the tobacco seed
beds and barns have been destroyed.
The prospectiev crop, it is asserted,
will not exceed 10 per cent. of normal

QUESTION OF DEMURRAGE

Hearing in Boston Attended by Mer-

Boston. Oct. IA bout two hundred
merchants and manufactures from all
parts of New England attended a hear
ing held today oy Interstate Commits
sloners Proutz- and Lane at the cham
per OF commerce on the question of
oenurrage. rates i'll New England The
point at issue is the desire of the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
railroad to reduce from 96 hours to
4S hours the maximum free time be-
tween the receipt and unloading of
shipments of freight, demurrage rates
TO be charged by the road thereafter.
The New England merchants and
manufacturers are protesting against
this decrease, claiming that although
the 48-houf rule is in effect elsewhere,
there are peculiar cosditions in this
section which would make the appli-
catlotn Of the rule here hardship.
The witnesses all agreed In saving
that the fact that New England was
served practically by but one railroad

MORE BOMBS THROWN
BY FRENCH STRIKERS.
Attempt to Wreck Passenger Train at
Versailles.

Paris, Oct. 1.-THE succession of
bomb outrages in connection with the
railroad strike reached a, climax today
in an attempt to wreck a passenger
train at Versailles. A bomb was
thrown at the entrance of the tunnel
to the Cshantiers station at the mo-
ment a passenger train was due from
Dreux. The bomb struck the limb of
a tree and bounding off landed beside
the tracks with terrific explosion. 1t
tore a great hole. sending UP showers
of earth and fragments of the iron Of
which il was constructed. A group
of soldiers guarding the tracks near
by had narrow escape from injury.
They report having seen three per-
sons on the bridge just before the ex-
plosion. Neither the tracks nor the
tunnel were DANA ged. The train from
Dreux arrived q few minutes later and
continued its journey.
Tonight. the police were notified that
a small cylindrical box containing
powder and nails and a lampwicll fuse
had been discovered in the vestibule Of

RAISING MONEY FOR
THE HEBREW SCHOOL.
New York Lawyer Selected as the
Teacher-Location of School.

Having accepted the offer of the
United Brethren synagogue on High
street to hold a Hebrew school in their
building, the committee which is
pushing this plan is taking steps to
provide the financial backing to carry
out their purpose. They propose to
have the money assured before they
begin the school and have appointed
Jacob Gordon and n. S. Penich to
represent them in raising the sum
which they need, which is from $500
to S400. About s57 has already been
pledged. The financial plan is to Sc
cure a number who will pledge pay
nfents quarterly or otherwise.
Already a number OF applications
have been received from those who
want the appointment as teacher and
the committee has selected the one
they think best qualified. He has had
previous experience teaching in a sim
liar school in Syracuse and is now a
lawyer in New York. It is expected
ttat he might combine his law prac-
tie here with school teaching.
The names Of from 40 to As children
have been registered who would at
tend the school. Their ages range
from 6 to IA. The school hours would
be in the afternoon, after the public
schools have closed.
