ARCHDEACON FARRAR’S SERMON. The English Divine Preaches at St. John’s, Yesterday, between 10 and 11 a m., the Picturesque vieinity of 16th and Hstreets, where St. John’s church is located, presented a very animated appearance on account of the eager crowds seeking admission to this venerable edifice. The cause of all this extraordinary in- terest was the vislt of Archdeacon Farrar. At Precisely 11 o'clock the opening strains of the Processional hymn floated into the chureh from the choir vestibule ai the northeast angle of the sacred edifice. Then the yestibule doors ‘Were thrown open and the surpliced choir of men and boys, followed by the clergy in their robes, in a column of two ranks, entered the main body of the church and advanced to their places in the chancel precincts, the archdeacon ing through thelr opened ranks to his seat in the sanctuary. The following clergymen Were present in the chancel with the arch- deacon: Reverends John G. Ames, Wm. A. Leonard, D. D., John M. E. MeKee, Cleland K- Nelson, b. D., J. Wainwright Ray, 7. B, Reamor, Bud Kensey Stewart, D. D. Tt happened to be the festival of St. Luke, the evangelist. The service appointed for that day was conducted by the Rev. Dr. Leonard, rector of St. John’ Archdeacon Farrar then ‘announced his tex! ‘What good thing shall Ido that I may have eternal life,” St, Matthew xix, 16. His theme was the young ruler who sought from Christ the Way of cterual life. The address was from man- uscript, It was very able and comprehensive, uniting great clearness and beauty of diction with extreme simplicity of expression.

The curious ceremony of consecrating a bell took place at the ImmaculateConception church yesterday. The immense two-ton bell, inscribed with the name of St. Anne, was bedecked with flowers and sprinkled with salt water and oll, in conserration to religious service. In the absence of Archbishop Gibbons, Monsignor Mc- Colgan, of Baltimore, performed the ceremony of ‘consecration, and was assisted by Rev. Fathers Broderick and Gallen, of Baltimore; Father Ryan, pustor of the church, and Father Sullivan. Psalms were sung and the anthem chanted. Then the bell was sprinkled with salt Water, while the priest prayed that the sound Of the bell might be blessed, so that whosoever heard its sound might be preserved from decep- Hon, from the danger of Ugltning and tempest and’ evil spirits, ‘and called to: worship God. The vicar general made the sign of the cross upon the bfg bronze bell with holy oll, praying that God, who, in the old law, commanded the priests to call the people to sscrifice with silver trumpet, might biess the bel} and deliver it from storms, tempest and all enemies. The bell was bathed in incense and myrrh amid Prayer and psalms. ‘The ceremony was curious and impressive, and was witnessed by a large congregation. SS The Baseball Conference. RESULT OF THE MEETING IN NEW YORK SATUR- DAY. The result of the conference of the National basehall league and American association in New York Friday and Saturday was a satisfac- tory adjustment of all disputes and differences between the two associations anda re-enact- ment of the national agreement undera revised code of laws. ‘The prominent features of the agreement are the limitation of players’ sala- ries to $2,000 a season; the reservation of 12 layers by each club of the twoassociations; the Binding of ‘each club not to negotiate with any reserved player, under any circumstances, until actually released, and no released player of the league to be eligible to contract by an Ameri- can club, or vice versa, for ten days after such release; ‘prohibiting the location of a league club ina city in which there ts an American club, and vice versa. Bradl Atkinson and ‘Weaver were reinstated by the American asso- elation, and the restrietions were removed which ‘rendered Mutrie ineligible to service in an American club. The Buffalo-Detroit_ ques- tion was left tothe league convention in De- cember for settlement, and some minor matters in dispute were amicably settled. Providence remains in the league and Cincinnati and Pitts- burg in the American association. A board of arbitration was formed of three members of each association, and the question as to the ad- mission of the ‘Eastern and other leagues as members to be protected by the new agreement will be left to this committee, who will also de- elde next December the fate ot the National elub of this city. ee A New and Reasonable View of the Case. To the Editor of Tue EVENING Star: Iwould like to say to my democratic breth- ren who blame the President for the success of the republicans at the recent election in Ohio, that if he had been more liberal with the offices the result would have been different, that the dally lists of changes In post offices, furnished by the First Assistant Postmaster General, shows that over 1,800 of the 2,500 postmasters in Ohio have been removed since the 4th of March.

We have received a large number of letters asking us to explain whatthe trouble is all about and what is likely to be the outcome of it, It seems strange to many that a second rate quarrel in halfa dozen insignificant provinces should set all Europe ablaze with excitement. Apparently the effect is much greater than the cause, Let us look at the problem. In the south- eastern corner of Europe isa large sized hor net’s nest. Roumania, Bulgario, Eastern Roumelia, Servia, Montenegro, Albania, Greece with the sultan at Constantinople—these are the? hornets which have stung the great powers into madness many a time, and are so likely at any moment to doit aguin’ that the powers are in a chronic state of nervous petulance, The Russian Empress Catherine IL. in 177, wrung from the conquered Turks a concession which lies at the root of the whole difficult The porte—that is, the govenment of Turkey— was compelled to allow the members of the Greek church pertect religious treedom, and the Empror Nicolas, grandfather of the’ present czar, claimed that this meant the right of Russia to protect allmembers of the Greek chureh which is the national church of Russi in any place over which Turkey held the suze- rainty. As a very large proportion of the population of the provinces above named belong to the Greek church, Russia exere surveillane over the whole of the European part of thy Turkish empire. Russian spies or emi or ministers or agents are to be found every- where, and they are working for Russian inter- ests, both openly and secretly. The emperor wants Constantinople. Constantinople is the birthplace of the Greek church. Itis to the east what Rome Is to the west. Besides the im- mense commercial and mill ne of the city, the peuple of Russia reveretice the spot and have a profound hatred for the Mosiem power which holds it. Itis the dream of Russia to command the bosphorus, and her religious zeal or fanaticism may some ‘day make the dream a reality. It is for the interest of Russia to foment quarrels among these provinces, to badger, compromise, perplex the suitan, because at the Fight moment she may step in a’ a peacemaker and so gain a larger control. When Bulgaria absorbed Eas itwas like applying a miati Why should Bulgaria have and Servia have nothing? There was land on the south of Servia which had been wrenched rn Roumelia a haystack, from her by the Turk, and now was the time | togetitback. Bulgatla herself was, in posses: sion ofa few hundred square miles of land stolen from Servia, and now was the time compel her to give them up. The Servian troops crossed the frontier, and, rather than fight, the Bulgarians made ‘a eiipromise and concession. Then Greece, too, flew to urms and declared that Turkey had robbed her of a part of the old Greek family estate, and that it must be returned or there would ‘be trouble. She ground her sword and started for the frontier. The Albanians are quiet just now, but if Turkey takes the field they” will not’ remain ule: They, too, have wrongs to be redressed. nd as for the Montenegrins, amid their ro fastnesses, they have been despoiled, and maltreated by the Turks for c: , and at the right moment they will kuow where and how to hit, In every one of these provinces there Is bitter memory of the Immeasurable crimes and ini- quity of Turkey in times past.

N. Countee, a prominent colored Baptist minis- ter. He was returning from church, where he had held services, and on passing the corner of Desoto and Webster streets, in the extreme southern limitsof the city, he was fired upon. ‘There wore about twenty of his congregation with him, and the contents of a shotgun loaded with buck shot caused considerable havoc. Two bullets struck Countee, one in the head, and the other passing through his chin, inflicting painful but not dangerous wounds. 'S. L. Coun- tee, his brother, was shot in the back ‘and also through the chin. His wounds are more dan- gerous. Ellen Wright, a colored woman, who was also in the crowd, received a shot in the hip. The assassin fled alter firing, but threw ray his gun, Which was found by’ the police. ‘This is the second attempt that has been made to kill the colored minister.
