Great Enthusiasm Manifested And Many Have Gone Under Instructions. Never in the history of St. Aloysius’ Charch Was there so much enthusiasm shown as there is in the mission now going on there. Every day the church has been packed from basement to gallery. St. Aloysius’ parish represents something like six thousand souls and this mis- sion has had the effect of bringing into the church several hundred persons who bave not of recent date been paying much attention to their religious dutiea The present mission has attracted more persons than the last mis- sion in this church that was conducted by the Rev. Father McGuire, who was such a popular minister with the people in this city. HOW THE MISSION 19 CONDUCTED. The mission is being conducted by four | Jesuit Fathers from New York. They ere Rev. Jos. J. Himmel, Rev. Matthew McDonald, Rev. | Patrick Forhan and Rev. Patrick Gleason. The order of *wervices each day of the two weeks 18 as follow: Morning—5 o'clock, mass and sermon: 6 c’clock, mass; 7 o'clock, mass children’s mass; 9 o'clock, mass and sermon. Afternoon | 730 o'clock, instruction and beads; 8 o'clock, | sermon and benediction. | Children’s mission—Morning.—8:30 o'clock, | mass and instruction. | Afternoon—3:30 o'clock, instraction and | benediction of the blessed sncrament. | Last week the mission was for ladies only and during the week fully 2,000 made the mission, attending the requinite number of exercises. When the main church room became crowded the lower room was used as well, as were th galleries. and two services were held at the same time. Sunday, the Iast day of the mission for ladies, the church was packed, and in the evening the church was got large enough to hold those who attended the opening service for the men. Father Himmel attracts special attention. He has a fine baritone voice, has a forcible de- hvery, and is graceful in and expres- sion. Sunday night at t pening of th men’s mission hie text wa a man to gain the whol loss of his own soul?” and during the course of his sermon he dwelt upon the end of man and pictured what might be expected by those who died without salvation. He held that man’s aim in life should not be to acquire fame or riches, but it was to work out the salvation of his own soul. LAST NIGHT'S SERVICES. Last night the services were peculiarly inter- esting, aud when the time arrived for instruc- tions fully 1,800 or 2,000 men were upon their I knees in the two rooms of the church. Tho services upstairs were led by the Rev. Father McDonald, while in the Sunday school room Rev. Fatuer Gleason conducted them. The subject in each mecting was “Sin and Its Con- sequences.” One feature of Inst night's services was the large attendance of members of the Young Men's Catholic Club and also of the Catholic Knights of America. Seats were reserved in the front of the church for them. There were about 200 members of the Cathohe Club wear- ing white badges, while 150 members of tho knights wearing red badges appeared in a body and marched to their seats. The Jesuit Fathers are well pleased with the mission ¢o far, and what is specially edifying to them is the large attendance at the early mora- ing exercises, many bringing their Inuch bas- kets with them and then going from the church to their daily work. THE MISSION FOR CHILDREN. The mission for children, which has been con- ducted by Father Himmel, closes this after- noon. Fully 1,000 children made the mission, and the result of the missionary work among the youthful ones is very gratifying to the pas- tor of the church. A class for converts has been organized, and the close of the first week it numbered about seventy-five, and it is expected that fully that many more will join before the close of the week. jie, pastor of the church, | Rev. Father Gille: spenking of the result of the first week's mis- sion, said that last Sunday witnessed the com- amunion of more than 2,000 persona. The mission will continue until the close of this week and it is likely that Father Himmel will preach at the 11 o'clock services Sunday morning. ——— Brookland and the Eckington Road. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Iam sorry to be compelled to ask you to do me the justice to correet your report of what I said before the Senate District committee anent Eckington railway matters. In Tue Stax of Thursday last am quoted as saying that a right of way to Brookland’had been refused by the railway company because of the large real es- tate interests of its managers at Eckington. I deny in toto having made any such assertion. It was made, however, by the gentlemen who preceded me without its having’ special refer- ence to Brookland. These gentlemen stated that the reason the company were asking a right of way to the Capitol was to boom their real estate interests rather than to serve the public. In Tue Stan of Friday I am made to say that Brookland had a population of 1,200. I said nothing of the sort, for the reason that I knew better. What I did say—and I can prove the entire truthfulness of the assertion —was that Brookland and vicinity had a population of from 1,200 to 1.500, all of which was tribu- tary to and used the electric road more or less frequently. ‘The main feature of my argument was that while Brookland people wanted the bill to pass extending this road to the Cupitol, they also wanted the charter amended so as to provide proper penalties for failure upon the part of the company to live up to its provisions. Right in this connection I wish to cite a recent expe- rience: A committee of our association com- Jained to the District Commissioners regard- ing the schedule some time since in vogue, and attention was called to the fact that the charter called for filing a echedule with those officials, who are compelled to approve it. These gen- tlemen very justly said: “Suppose we do not approve it. how can we compel the company to change it?” If a penalty were attached the remedy would not be far to scek. we desire and any other on the hill will give us. pea RT Looking for Their Pay. To the Editorof The Evening Star: Since the contract has been awarded to Mr. Plumley to finish the new naval observatory for $25,950 we would like to inquire through ‘Tu Stam why can't we mechanics and’ labor- ere get what is due us out of the balance, about $16,000, remaining? We were informed by the heads of severai of the bureaus of the Navy Department that when the former contractors forteited their contract that there was about £42,000 remaining to finish said observatory, and that after the observatory was finished and accepted by the government if there was any balance their “impressions” were that we might get some, if not uli, of what was due us. Now that Mr.’ Plumley has complied with the re- quirengnts of the law, with bis bonds, &-., why make Us wait any longer? Severs! of us have suffered this bard winter and are still suffering, where if we had the few dollars due us it would be # great help until work starts up in the spring. ‘Iwo thousand dollars will overpay all the hands, about forty or fifty m number,andit is a bardship to compel us to wait or to employ counsel to ges what belongs t> ua We sent committees t0 the different departments, but cannot get any definite promise. Our only hope is from the goverument, which 1 do not think wants us to give it our labor for nothing. We ask Tux Stax to make this inquiry. Oxx ov THE SUFFEREEs. ——_. Three Accidents.

After s recess in the afternoon permanent organization of the democratic convention at Albany yesterday was effected by making Gen. Daniel E. Sickles permanent chairman. Gen. Sickles made a brief speech highly eulogistio of Senator Hill, at the conclusion of which the committee on resolutions submitted the eon- vention platform. The principles laid down in the report of the committee were the affirmation and reindorse- ment of the democratic state convention's platform of 1874. Gold and silver were then declared the only legal tender, and in the mat- ter of revenue reform the principle was lsid down that federal taxation should be for reve- nue only. ‘The fifth plank was to limit and localize most jealously the few powers trusted to public servants, municipal and fed- eral, while the sixth declared in favor of equal and exrct justice to all men; no partial legisia- tion, no partial taxation. ‘the seventh plank declared "the Presidency public trai not a private perquisite, and deciarcd against 8 third term, while the eighth favored economy in the public expense that labor may Be lightly burdened. the principles of the state After reaffirmi platform of 1874 the report went on to protest against the coinage of any eilver dollar which is not of the intrinsic value of every other dol- lar of the United States. The Sherman silver dollar is stigmatized as ‘no solution of the gold and silver question and as a fit appendix to the subsidy and bounty swindle, the McKinley worse than war tariff, the Blaine reciprocity humbug, the squandered surplus, the advanc- ing deficit, the defective conxus and falsified representation and the revolutionary proce- dures of the billion-dollar Congress, all justly condemned by the people's great uprising in November, 1590g” After pointing with pride to the “inflexibly sound finance” of Gov. Tilden, the report re- fers “with grateful pride to the sound finance of Gov. Hill,” and then goes on to say that in obedience to the mandate of democratic voters ot New York the delegates welected by the con- Yention are instructed to present to the na- tional democratic convention the name of David B. Will as the candidate for President of the United States, a democrat who has led his party from victory to victory for seven suc- cessive" years and who hus never known defeat.” pe is When that passage instructing for David Hill was read the air was shaken by an out- burst that made the building quiver, and when the resolutions were unanimously adopted the cheers broke forth and subsided only when Col. Jobn R. Fellows arose in his place near the front of the Tammany delegation and moved that a committees be delegated to wait upon Sentor Hill and request him to appear before and address the convention. After ashortabsence the committee returned, escorting the Scuator, whose appearance in the hall was the signal for a burst of loud and pro- longed cheering. Gen. Sickles introduced Seuator Hill ina few words, and then the latter delivered an address, which was frequently in- terrupted by applause. The republican party he arraigned for its extravagance during the last Congress and for the non-fultillment of the pledges made by it to the people. | ‘“Therepub- ican party,” he said, “neither truste the people nor obeys them, It'now requires another w heaval at the ballot box like that of 1890 to convinced that the wicked work of the billion- dollar Congress must not be repeated and the people's will observed.” The speech was in- tently listened to, and, while not broken often by applause, it was cheered loudly at its close and the band played ‘Three Cheers for the Red, ite and Blue.” ‘The national delegates and alternates chosen atlarge were Roswell P. Flower, Edward Murphy, jr, Gen. Daniel E. Sickles’ and Gen. Henry W. Slocum. ‘The alternates were Mai ton Marble, John Bigelow, Sidney Webster and Alfred C. Chapin. MEETING OF THE ODSECTORS. The conference of objectors to the early convention met in Union Hall at 2:30 p.m. There were about 200 present. Among them Superintendent of Insurance Max- retary of the Treasury Fairchild, Congressman Tracey, E. Ellery Anderson, Senator Chase and W. D. Locke of Buffalo. ‘They decided to hold an opposition convention in Syracuse on May 31. Speeches were made ild, who was chairman, and others. Nearly every city in the state. he said, was represented. It ‘was a protest against the methods prevailing at the other convention. WEAVER AND FREE TRADE. Congressman Simpson's Prediction of the St. Louis Convention. Congressman Simpson of Kansas, who has been in Chicago with the congressional dele- gation viewing the world’s fair site, has been interviewed on politics and the St. Louis con- vention. “Both the subtreasury scheme and free coinage are losing strength among the farm- ers,” he said. “In my opinion the former will be dropped and the jatter must give way to the tariff.” “What will the St. Louis conference do?” “It will authorize the cailing of @ national convention and a presidential candidate will be placed inthe field bythe latter onashort platform dealing with the land question, the tariff, transportation and finance.” “What posi.ion is likely to be taken on the tariff question?” “An effort will be made to get a more radical declaration on the subject than any party las yet ventured. We will go as near to a demand for absolute free trade as possible.” “Who will be the third party candidate?” is hard to tell. Gen. Jas. B. Weaver of Iowa is one of the favorites. He is a free trader and believes in the doctrines of the most advanced tax reformers.” =—ow MKS. DEACO: sToRY. She Denies Her Husband's Charges Con- cerning Her Kelations With Abeille. Mrs. Deacon, made notorious by the recent tragedy at Cannes, France, says in an interview at Paris that she had been visiting the Countess Pourtales at Cannes, and was tired and went to her mother's. She was there when Abeille arrived and accompanied her to her apart- ments in the Hotel Splendide. In her ealoon bed room she was accustomed to relinquish ceremony and she went into her bed room to get her dressing gown, Abeille remaining in the saloon. They were quietly conversing when her husband shouted, “Open the door or I will burstit in.” As I was in the saloon,” said Mre. Deacon, “it took time for me to’ cross into the bed room and light the candle. Although used to being ill-treated I was frightened when I saw the revolver in my husband's hands. Abeille was reclining againt the mantelp: b husband leveled the revolver at to prevent Mr. Deacon from shooting, bat without effect. Abeille secing the danger uturally sought shelter behind the sofa. ‘Three shots were fired by Mr. Deacon, one of the bullets being buried in the cushions, It Abeille had been guilty of anything that would have caused him to fear violence he could have eaxily escaped by the way of the saloon ito the passage or to the cornice, eight incbes wide, which was round the outer ‘wail of the building” Mrs. Deacon says that she intends to begin an action for ce from her husband. ‘Washington Visitors to ‘The special Hlinois Central train bearing the congressional delegates and other Washing- tonians to Jackson Park to view the progress made upon the world’s fair site and buildings left the Van Buren strect depot, Chicago, at 10:15 o'clock yesterday morning.

As was reported in yesterday's Stan, it was ‘2:25 p.m. when Mr. Terrill of Texas called to order the industrial and political convention at St Louis without the formality of an ad- dress, and caused a smile by announcing that the “congregation” would rise while the pro- ceedings were opened with praye The 1,200 or more delegates complied while the Rev. 8. H. Basher of Milledgeville, IIL, in- voked the aid of the Almighty upon the move- ment. ©. P. Wallbridge, president of the city council of St. Louis, welcomed the convention to St. Louis in an eloquentaddress. President Polk of the National Farmers’ Alliance was in- troduced by Mr. Terrill and the announcement was made that Mr. Polk’s address would be fol- lowed by one from Mr. Powderly and another from Ignatius Donnelly. At the mention of these three possible presi- dential candidates the convention manifested much interest, and for the time being forgot that they were yet without even a temporary organization and were still in the hands of Mr. Terrill. President Polk said the farmers had assembled here for the purpose of performing asolemn and responsible duty. He complained of what he termed unequal conditions existin: between farming and other communities, an urged the farmers to stand together and get oseersion of and run the government in the interest of the people. Mr. Powderly was now introduced, and » delegate in the Massachusetts quarter called for three cheers for him, which were given with a tiger. The speaker took up the question of restrict- ing emigration. Through the gates of Castle Garden, he said, s stream pours into this coun- try and distributes itself, Particularly in the coal regions. The cream ‘of the manhood was crowded west and they in the east have instead the poor unfortunate, whom they must edu- cate year after yearto preventthem from using bombs instend of ballots. He had been and was still firmly agains: such a state of things. ‘Years ago,” continued Mr. Powderly, “when we nominated Gen. Weaver of Iowa" — [A burst of cheers at the mention of the name of the greenback presidential candidate stopped Mr. Powderly short. Gen, Weaver, on the platform, beamed smilingly upon the cheering multitude, bnt sobered up with sud- denness when the general master workman icily but forcibly warned thé convention to cheer not the men, but principles. The ruddy, clean-shaved countenance and chunky figure of Ignatius Donnelly succeeded Mr. Powderly on the rostrum. Mr. Donnelly was greeted with stunning applause. He de- clared that the coming gatherings of the de- mocracy and republicans at Chicago and Min- neapolig, compared with this convention, would be simply congulations of unprincipled poli- ticians to divide the plunder of the republic. He predicted a wedding soon to occur—that of the democracy and the republican party. The ceremony will be performed at the altar of plu- toc! r. We pr the speaker continued, ‘to wipe the n° and Dixon line out of our geography, to wipe the color line out of poli- tics, to give Americans prosperity, that the man who creates shall know what he creates; to take the robber clusses from the throat of industry, to take possession of the United States and to put our nominee in the White Cries for Jerry Simpson went up until the roof shook, but the Kansas statesman proved modest or absent, and the band filled in the interim. Gen. Weaver of Iowa moved that the convention effect # temporary organization immediately. He nominated Marion Cannon of California for temporary chairman. The motion was carried with a whoop. John P. Steele of Minois and John W. Hayes of Penn- sylvania were speedily selected secretaries, and men ‘appointed from the various organi- zation’ mentioned in the call for the conven- tion. Ignatius Donnelly urged the immediate ap- pointment of a platform committee, to be com- posed of one member from each state deloga- tion, but was headed off by Congressman Liy- ingston of Georgia with a point of order that 1t could not be done till the credentials committee reported. A disposition to continue the proceedings through a night session was noticeable and @ motion by Washbourne of Massachusetts to adjourn till 10 a.m. met with prompt defeat. A statement by Powderly that the knights in the convention were figuring on holding a meeting during the evening altered matters somewhat, and, after compromising on 9 a.m. as the hour for reassembling, the convention adjourned until today.

UESDAY, Michael Dunn, who had spent thirty-five years of the sixty-six years of his life in prison, died s reformed convict in Brooklyn yesterday morning. Dunn bad ran the gemut of crime before he was of age, and his prison experi- ences embrace almost every country in the world and are particularly well known to the police of Philadelphia. He was born in Man- chester, England, September 15, 1926, and one of his phrases was, “The less said about my parents the better.” He was never sent to school, and in fact learned to read and write in the Northampton (England) jail after he was twenty-five years old. When he was eleven years old he bad already been arrested five times and for each arrest served a sentence. When seven years old he picked pockets with peculiar adroituess. From that he went to till tapping, in which line he made a record for himself. He was so apt a criminal that older thieves took him in and tanght him to erent steal whatever he From transom robberies Dunn graduated to the counterfeit money. Then he tried burglary proper, and entered a jewelry store in Manchester. He was caught and sent to Van a Land, where rd — — shoemaking, and for good conduct promo’ to the captaincy of a small boat He tried but failed to escape and served bis time, after which he shipped on an American sailing vessel and was landed on the Sandwich Islands, whence ae shipped to New Bedford on another whaler. Then Dunn drifted to New York city and got into s of thieves and was sentto Black- well’s Island, whence he escaped by area | to Brooklyn, in 1851. He became so well known to the police that with his wife, a disso- lute woman, he for Liverpool, where he took to gambling as a means of livelihood. His career was short and he was sent to Portland rison and thence to western Australia, when e escaped to Ceylon asa eats Then he worked his way to Bombay and from there went to Boston, where things became too hot for himand he ‘went back to Liverpool, where he was arrested for not serving his term in Australia and later sent to Gibraltar. After serving his full term there he was given a free pass to America, where he landed the day before Lincoln's assussination. It was at Sing Sing that he reformed and after his discharge inaugurated an industrial home for ex-convicte in Water street. Subsequently he started the same places in Chicago, San Francisco and Philadelphia, undoubtedly doing much good in each place. ——_—_+e+______ Mrs. James Brown Potter's Loss.
