E. church, has returned from bis vacation. Yesterday he preached to a large congregation, having for hts theme: “Some of the Causes of Mod ern Infidelity.” In the course of his sermoa he said: “The cry goes up to-day for absolute lb- erty. Destroy the Bible, tear down the churches, exilé the pastors, abolish the Sabbath. Could any American citizen have anticipated, ten years ago, Such an advance? Would any American citizen; ten years ago have foretold that to-day men call” ing themselves good citizens and Christians would sign and circulate a petition for the pardon of those whose hands are red with the blood of keepers of the peace, defenders of public sarety? What 13 back of ‘this unarchy? This foul revolutionary movement of miserabie, cowardly wretches who ought to have been hung’ long ago?” [Here there Was applause, and a number of people arose to thetr feet, while many ered “Amen!” “That's s0."] “Liberty,” continued the preacher, “means obedi- ence to law. Absolute liberty has no place in this land, and those who come to us from abroad should understand that for those who yell for ab- Solute iiberty aud its practices we have the dun- geon, the gallows, or exile.” = ee The Shooting of Young Rawlett. SPRIGGS, THE COLORED PRISONEK, SAYS HE DID NOT FIRE THE SHOT. Benj. Spriggs, the young colored man chargea with the murder of Geo.

Afterthe shooting was over and he was Walking down the road he Was arrested by two men and turned over to a special officer, and he Was afterward taken to jail. ————. An Enterprising Bill-Poster, 4 WARRANT OUT FOK HIS ARREST, BUTHE WAS LEFT TOWN. Last week J. H. Decker, the agent of McNish, Jounson & Slavin’s Minstrels, eame here to bill the town, and itis alleged that in doing so he eo- croached on the business of Mr. L. Moxley, who ts @ licensed bill-poster. It was discovered that Decker not only had bis bills displayed at store doors and on boards, but his bills were substituted for those of the Ezra Kendall Co. in many places, Mr. Moxley’s men, it is sald, tore down many of {hg bills of the tnstrels and put, up Ezra Kendall bulls Yesterday morning Spectal OMicer John Lane, passing along Market Space, between’ 8th snd 9th streets, discovered aman ‘coming down the awning post of the Boston Variety Store Annex and took him in custody. He proved to be & young man named Americus N. Crippen, form- erly tn Mr. Moxley’s empioy, but now of the Baiti- more and Ohio Railroad, who was aiding Mr. Mox- Ley’s corps in replacing the bills. It appears that ailer fixing up the bills‘n the windows of the aunex he started to go out, but hearing footsteps he thought Decker's men were coming around sgain to ear down Moxiey’s bills, and he there- fore locked the door, went up stairs and came down by the awning’ post. This brought the case to the attention of the police, and yesterday morn- ing Lieuts. Amiss and Kelly were directed to col- lect the Decker bill-boards, and the patrol wagons gathered about 400. Mr. Moxley swore out a war- Fant for the arrest of Decker, but he had left own. |. HEALY BRANCH OF THE IRISH NaTIoNAL ‘.—A well-attended meeting of the T. M.

Arrangements for the Demonstration Thursday Night Well Advanced. GEN. PRTER P. BACON APPOINTED CHIRP MARSHAL— ‘THE LINE OF THE PROCESSION—THE MILITARY, THR WHEELMEN, AND THE WOKKINGMEN—RESULTS OF ‘THE LABORS OF THE FINANCE COMMITTER. ‘The preliminary arrangements for the demon- stration Thursday evening in honor of Ex-Gov. Shepherd were nearly completed at meetings of various committees held Saturday night. The members of the finance committee: met with the executive committee, and @ forward impetus was given to the movement by the an- nouncement made by Mr. E. Kurtz Johnson, the chairman of the finance committee, that the con- tributions amounted to $5,000, with several col- lectors to be heard from. Mr. Johnson stated that while the amounts of the subscriptions were not large, they were numerous, showing that a large number of persons took an Interest in the recep- tion. Col. Berret, a8 chairman of the executive committee, tendered the thanks of that body to Mr. Johnson and his assoclateson the finance ‘committee for their zeal and eMctency, and at the ‘same time requested them tocontinue thetr efforts. Mr. James T. Wormley tendered to the executive committee the parlors of Wormley’s Hotel for the use of Ex-Gov. Shepherd and family on the even- ing of the ‘reception, Thanks were returned to Mr. Wormley, and the offer was referred to the reception committee. After some discussion It was decided to have the procession Thursday night form at the circle at the intersection of New Jersey avenue and Massachusetts avenue. ‘The procession will move at 7:30 o'clock, the route of march, as agreed upon Saturday night, being as follows: New Jersey ave- nue to B street’ northwest, to Ist street west, to Pennsylvania avenue, to 15th street, to Vermont avenue, to Pennsyivanta avenue, where the line ‘Will disperse. The reviewing stand will Ds erected at the south end of the Treasury, where the line will wheel from Pennsylvania avenue into 15th street. It was decided, upon a report made by Mr. Samuel Cross, chairman of the muste commit- ‘tee, to employ six bands, THE MILITARY, Col. W. G. Moore announced that at a meeting of the officers of the military companies of the District, held at the W. L. I. Corps Armory that evening, it had been decided that each company should tender its services to the committee. The inilitia Will, therefore, notbe ordered out, but Will take voluntary part th the,demonstration. Col, Moore, speaking of keeping the avenue clear, said it was cruel and unreasonable to attempt to contine the whole population of Washington on ‘such an Occasion to the sidewalks of the avenue. What he proposed to do was to attempt to keep the asphalt on the south side clear, and give up the space on the north entirely to the people. Col Berret announced the appointment of, Gen. Peter F. Bacon as grand marshal of the procession and named Messrs. Wm. F. Mattingly, Crosby 8. Noyes and M. M. Parker as a reception ‘committee fomeet, ex-Gov: Shepherd at is. country house, escort him to the city and to the grand stand. Mr. Lancaster thought it Mtting that Mr. Shep- herd should be escorted through tue city to the Tevlewing stand by the procession so that the peo- ple could see him, but the prevailing view Was that Mr. Shepherd should be conducted to the re- Viewing stand and there await the processton. Mr. Wim. Dickson reported that arrangements for {the pyrotechnic display, at the Botanical Gardens, at the Center Market and at the Treasury, were nearly completed. ‘THE CIVIC PROCESSION. A meeting was held Saturday evening also by the committee on civic procession. The subcom- mittee on wheelman reported that, having can- vassed the cycle clubs and the unattached cyclists, they could promise that 500 wheelmen would take part in the parade. A lantern, a wire standard and a candle are to be supplied to each at an esti- mated cost of Scents. The chief marshal of the bicycle parade, George S. Atwater, ts to appoint the captains of the various organized clubs as aldes, and to assign the clubs to rank In the pro- cession according to seniority. Prof. Harry King reported that the chief of the military division had _agreed toailow the wheelmen to precede the main body of the procession. The report of the subcommittee was adopted. ‘The declination of the Federation of Labor to take part in the parade, due, as Chairman Moore said, to a misapprehension which had been cleared up, Was briefly discussed, and regret ex- Pressed that the misunderstanding had occurred, Chairman Moore said that Le had been assured by Mr. Oyster that while there was not time suf- ficient remaining to secure a creditable showing of organized bodies of workingmen, in the pro- cession there was nothing to hinder individual workingmen from taking part. He expected a large representation of skilled workingmen under these conditions. Col. W. H. Clarke, of the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph Office, by letter, proposed to send his messenger corps, mounted” on ponies, to particl- pate in the parade, and the offer was accepted, Applications for positions in the provession were received from the former National Gaurds and the Old Guard Union Veteran Corps. Through Lewis 1H. Lantnan the plate-printers were invited to par- Ucipate. Mr. Hollister was appointed a comunit- tee to provide badges for the members of the com- mittee. ‘The wheelmen are to assemble on Maryland ave- hue, east of the Botanical Gardens, at 6:30 p. m. ‘Thursday, where lamps will be distributed and the line formed. Aides of the wheelmen’s parade meet this evening at the Washington Cycle Club House, They are us follows: Gen. Wm. Birney, Gen. W. H. it. “Browne, Ii. S. Owen, Capt. J.C. Ve Suiith, Hon. A. A. Adee.

THE TRIAL OF MISS M'ERIDR AND JOHN M'PARLAND ‘AGAIN POSTPONED. ‘This morning, in the Criminal Court, Judge Cox Presiding, after the jurors had been called District Attorney Worthington said that this (10 o'clock) ‘Was the hour get for calling the case of Mary J. McBride and Jno, W. McFarland, indicted for arson in setting fire to house 515 11th street northwest, ‘on the 30th of June, 1886. McFarland was present, and his counsel, Mr. T. C. Taylor, in, he Was arraigned on the new indictment, which, Mr. Worthington explained, did not differ trom the other with the exception that there were counts in itcharwing the act as tothe prejudice of the owners waiving the fading ‘ot the pate’ Thee mas ing the ‘the paper. a some delay, owing to Miss MeBride. and her coun- sel having unde; that the time forcalling the case was 11 o'clock. Mr. Cook said that he was hot prepared to go on with the case, owing to his physical condi according to is physi- clan's statement, ne could not be for sev- eral weeks. ‘Besides. a number 188 McBride's ‘witnesses were out of the city. ‘When Mr. Manning, who ts associated with Mr. Cook, arrived, hestatéd that as he was the Junior counsel he could not go on with the case alone, and asked a postponement, a district attorney opposed any postpone- Mr. Taylor that a long postponement Was unjast to his cifent, McFlarland. ‘he court xed the 2ith instant for the trial . Cook said that he would be ready to argue the motion to quash on Saturday next. American Telephone Co. It will be remembered that some time ago the American Telephone Co. was attacked by state- ments detrimental to its credit, and much interest Was atthe time taken in its affairs, as a large number of the citizens of Washington had pur- chased stock of it. The most careful investigation falled to show any other than the most Jaudable Purpose on the part of its projectors in organizing End putting in operation company: whose feid ot operations were to be located chiefly in South America, and Which promised returns upon the Investment. The only question that remained unsettled at the time was why the papers covering the amended concession did not arrive. ‘The conduct of the company under the trying circumstances in which 1t was placed in requiring all those who had purchased stock to return it and recetve back their money was highly com- mendable, and justly entitles: them to credit, It appears now that the papers which the company ad been promised hae been Fecelved and arene to be full and unqualified. ‘The legal opinions of Dr. 8. Terrero Atienza, of Caracas, and the Hon, deffereon Chandler, of Washington, D. C., sets at Test the question that the American Telephone Co, haste right to carry on a telephone business in Venezuela and that the government of Vencz- ueia has bound itself not to abridge the rights of the company for nine years. ‘The company was organized to do a telephone, telegraph, electric-light business, and in addition to its telephone concession, 1t has the promise of other privileges covering its other branches of Work that promise to become very valuable, It has also promises of other telephone concessions, that are Of much greater value than the conces- ston from the Venezuelan government, and the Papers are expected by the time the company gets ‘the work of construction organized, so t can take care of them, ‘The Caracas office of the company reports 1,500 subscribers at that and other points now waiting the setting up of the instruments, and 1t ts ex- pected that ut least 3,000 telephones will be put Up in Venezuela the first year. ‘This company is a home organization and the manner in which ft has acquitted itself com- mends it to all as deserving of confidence. The opinions appended of the eminent attorneys, Jet ferson Chandler, of Washington, and Dr. 8. Ter- Tero Atienza, of Caracas, show that the Venezuela concession 15 full, and gives the American Tele. phone Company’ the exclusive right of doing @ telephone business in that country. OPINIONS OF HON, JEFFERSON CHANDLER AND DR. 8. ‘FERRERO ATIENZA, WasuINGTON, D.C., October 1, 1887. To the American Telephone Oo.: Gentlemen:—It is my opinion, after careful ex- amination of the contract madé between the gov- ernment of Venezuela and Aquilino Orta, that said contract ts valid, and that by its terms there 1s conveyed to and’vested In the sald Aquilino Orta {the right privileges, and franchise to set up, main. tain, and operate telephone lines, exchanges, and connections throughout the territory of the gov- erument of Venezuela, and that sald contract Ws and ts assignable, and has been duly and legaliy assigned to the American Telephone Co., of Wash- ington, District of Columbia, and that'said com- pany now owns Said grant, and has a perfect right Lo operate and enjoy the "same, and further that the government of Venezuela has bound itself not to make similar grants or concessions to any other Persons or companies in the future during the life of said contract or rights therein conferred, nor 10 any manner Wo impair the same; that said grants and franchises now held and owned by said Amer- ican Telephone Co. are by the terms of said grant tocontinue and abide for the period of nine (9) Years from the date of signing the same, the gov- ernment of Venezuela reserving the right to ex- tend the contract for a term of tree years longer. JEFFERSON CuANDLER, Counsellor-at-Law. It ts my opinion that, according to the con- cession made Dy the government of Venezuela to Aquilino Orta on the 27th day of April, 1887, for the establishment of telephones in the’ republic, Which concession was transferred to Mr. Cande- lario Padron on the 2d ultimo, and transferred by the latter this day to the American Telephone Company, the sald company hus a perfect right to establish’ business in all the cities of the Vene- zuelan Union; that in case of the existence of any claim on the ‘part of the Inter-Continental Tele- phone Company such claim for damages can in no wise affect the aforesaid American Telephone Company, since that company fs acting in virtue of @ contract concluded with the national gov- ernment, and invested with all the constitutional formalities; and, finally, that from the letter of the said contract in the eighth article 1t ts appar- ent that that company fs the only one that has a Hight to establish the telephone service in Vene- zuela. ci August 6th, 1887, eas S.
