The car was cut off from and run to Amsterdam, where the fire was put out. A large quantity of mail matter and was burned. The ear was en route for Chicago and pointe west of thatcity.

Gossip as to the Standing of the Candidateg— The Smaller Offices. Itis generally supposed that the President will appoint the additional judge provided for the Police Court within a few days. Among the lawyers opinion is divided as to who the lucky man will be, every one of course men- tioning the name of the man whom he favors. It is generally admitted among the lawyers that Justice Samuel C.

The other candidates, like Justice M still in the fight, and if "the opiniom of the Lone inion of the law- re was ‘88 gospel Mr. Neil Dumont would surely be the man.

All the candidates thus far have good back- ing and time alone will tell who gets the prize. ‘THE SMALLER OFFICES. The office of another deputy clerk of the court at $1,500 per year is not going begging, and there are probably as many candidates for that office as there are for the judgeship. It is thought, however, that there will be several promotions in the it force, and that the new appointee will be made warrant clerk. Another office created by the bill is the bai- lifts position, which pays €3_per doy, and the candidates for that sit In court every day and watch the proceedings, so that when they are appointed they will fully understand the ropes. There is ‘only one to be appointed and there are more than one dozen candidates for the position. —_———.

The Father Matthew Society the only branch of the union in Wash- ington, and the task of — preparing for the comi convention aud properly re- ceiving the visitors will devolve upon its mem- bers. “In nearly all of the northern and west- ern cities there is a total abstinence society con- nected with ench parish, and the duty of enter- taining delegates to conventions is shared by the cganteations in that district. The members of the local society appreci- ating the importance of the work which is be- fore them has commenced to interest the people of the District in their cause and objects which they dosire to accomplish. . ‘The convention will necessarily require the outlay of a considerable sum of money.

A Long Executive Session Occupies a Good Deal of Time Today. ‘A MEMORIAL SESSION, AT WHICH TRE VIRTUES OF ‘THOSE WHO DIED DURING THE YEAR ARE EX- ‘The first part of the morning session of the Hamline Church today was devoted to an ex- ecutive session, from which the public and the Tepresentatives of the press were rigidly ex- cluded. The reason for this was the fact that the main business of the session was the settle- ment of the allowances that should be made to superannuated and supernumerary minictors who are dependent upon the bounty of the church. At the conclusion of this session some ron- tine business was trs ssacted and reports read, and then the memorial services to the mem- bers of conference who have died within the Past year were begun.

Dr. Goucher, who has recently been elected the president of the Baltimore Woman's College, made an address, in the course of which he said that it was the purpose of the college that woman, who is man’s peer in poasi- bilities and responsibilities, should be made his equal in the matter of preparation, education and opportunity. This education, under the auspices of the Baltimore conference, was or- ganized for the higher education of women in answer to the almost universal demand for its? existence. Met ism, with all its mil- lions of invested capital, made no adequate preparation "for the more Advanced education of women and there were many who believed that coedacation may be good for boys, but is not good for girl The laughters of ‘Methodists who wished to go ahead with their studies were obliged to enter the institutions of other denominations. Now thanks to the munificence of the Baltimore con- ference this necessity has beea done away with. ‘This college has succeeded beyond all expecta tions. Last fall over 250 girls ‘applied for ma- triculation; there are now over 850 students and the applications of over fifty more had to ‘on account of the limited accom- the college to its fullest limit. REPORT O¥ EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS. Rev. John H. Dashiell, chairman of the com- mittee on educational institutions, read the re- port of that committee. ‘This conference is re- lated to seven institutions whose president or trustees submit an annual report and request ‘hat would destroy the magnificent view from ‘the site. .

Dr. Littleton J. Morgan made the opening yer and Bishop Jo hed the sermon Secret nein doaeree tae earnest and stirring one and powerful effect upon all who heard it. The eyes of nearly every one were filled with tears as the bishop called the blessing of God upon them, and it was evi- dent that every one in the congregation had been moved by his words and exhortations. ‘THE LAYING ON OF HANDS. At the conclusion of the sermon those who | be then had been elected to deacons’ orders were called upon to rise and ten men arose in their places. They were Milton H. Courtney, William An- thony, Edward Hayes, John W. Fleming, Will- iam L. Orem, Robert W. Moore, William C. Brian, Harrold M. Thurlow, Frank W. Crowder and Menry W.

G. G. Baker aud the Rev. 8. M. Hart- sock tively. ‘Then, at Bishop Joyce's re- est, Bishop Hurst brought the Bible from So, Seam ea, 08 te cand nds uy ebook, works: “Take. thou authorily to reed the Holy Scriptures in the church of God and to preac! the same.” A few brief remarks from Bishop Joyce fol- lowed and the services closed with the doxology by the whole congregation.

Reod, president of Dickine son College, preached ‘the sermon, which was mainly a talk upon the duty of the ministry, the present trials and. the hopes for the future, particularly from the increase of assistance de- rived from the laity, men and women. THEY ASKED FOR PRAYERS. At the close of the services at Hamline Church last evening, which were conducted by Rev. W. A. Spencer, thirty-six persons responded to the invitation and came forward to the altar rail and asked for prayers for their conversion.

J., Drew Seminary, at’ Madison, N. Y.; the ‘Boston Uni- versity, which has professional and post-gradu- ate schools, and Morgan College, with its an- nexes. In some eases the institution is well fur- uished with means of support. Especially is this the case with Boston University and Drew Seminary. Dickinson is well fitted with buildings, but has only a moderate endowment. An inerease in this endowment is most desira- ble. The two seminaries are preparatory schools for both sexes and are doing excellent work in their sphere. Drew is exclusively a ological school and it should be recog- nized as such, while it could well afford to abandon all attempt to give distinctively theo- logical training. The appointment of Dr. L. F. Morgan was recommended as agent of the ‘Woman's College at Baltimore. The committee sluo sequested. the appoint: ment of Rev. C. W.

That is what Mr. H. L. Earle, the secretary and treasurer of the company, told a Stan r today. He said that the pneumatic company had purchased the road, but they not begun to operate it yet.

It was pointed out that by being on Canadian soil the postal facilities of this country could be used in direct violation of the act which was recently passed prohibit- ing the lottery company from using the United States mails to carry on their business. A reply has been received from Mr. White, the assistant postmaster general of Canada, stating that the laws of Canada forbid the use of the mails to all illegal and fraudulent lottery companies. He requests to be informed if the Louisiana Lottery is an illegal con- cern. As that ‘company is chartered under the laws of the state of Lonisiana and has a be made to apply to it. The recent anti-lottery law — probibited this company from using the carry on its business and did not pronounce it to be illegal.

Mr. Cahill for the defendant was of the same opinion. Counsel said that under the proof which the District might offer his client was not liable. In this case he said the license is in ‘the name of another person and there bas yet been no transfer made. Under these circum- stances the law, he thought, recognized the Person who holds the license as the proprietor and the defendant is therefore not the rexpon- sible person.

Application was made teat ‘as the house ts no longer used ase saloon amd no longer requires the water used in the =~ loon buriness the same be changed to he consistent with the rate paid by other for similar service. Capt. Lusk reviews the case at length, and seys that water was shut off from the premises for non-payment of water rent on November 22, 18¥0. the beginning the new water rent year. He mys the owner of the premises desires to ing the whole of the annual rate due on Ist of July, 1890; but that he ves the whole payment should be insisted apon, for if the laws and regniations are so changed as to establish the general scheme of reminsions and based upon changes in ' schedule of water rates be at once incrensed throughout.

Recently the Commissioners received a letter from a man who stated that he had received from the water department « bill for water rent from the date of his taking of the premises and asked that in view of the fact that he paid the water rent at another house for the whole year, which he vacated and which was taken down, he desire to be credited for the amount over paid. The matter was referred to Capt. Lush, who bes charge of such matters, and he recommends that the claim be not granted, tor, he says, te make refundments, as requested, is contrary te practice and it hae no ‘precedent in the recent experience of the water depart ment, besides the law relating» te the collection of water rente docs not authorize such refundments. He says farther that the water rates in Washi ure #0 low that refundments on account of the changes of business or removal during the year cannot be unde without « general raising of the rates throughout, and that this is doubly true sines the application to the water fund of the debt incurred on account of the 48-inch main.
