Next Week's Gathering of Prominent and Representative Men. of Delegates Wi md Discuss Important Topics— ‘To Meet at Willards. ‘There will assemble in this city next Tues- day the largest gathering of representa- tive business men this country has ever known. The €ccasion is the meeting of representatives of the boards of trade of the United States, and the object 1s the consid- eration of the practical methods for the improvement of the financial and business condition of the country. One of the prob- able results of the convention will be the formation of a national organization with permanent headquarters tn this city. The Farmers’ Alliance, the National Grange, the National Geographical Society, the Amert- can Historical Society and a number of other simiiar organizations, have realized the advantages of having permanent head- quarters at the seat of government, and it has long been a matter of surprise that the boards of trade of the country, representing as they do the leading business interests of the country, have failed to take similar action, ‘The recent financial stringency and con- sequent business depression from which the country has practically recovered was one of the I causes of the movement which will result in the meeting of repre- sentatives of the industrial and business interests of the country, having in view the common object and advancement of the welfare of the entire buiness community. ‘The New York Board of Trade and Trans- Portation inaugurated the movement and, after several weeks of correspondence se- cured the hearty co-operation of represent- ative business organtzations in all sections of the country. the result of which was the issue, on the 224 ultimo, of a formel call on all boards of trade and similar bus- iness organizations, to meet in convention at Willard’s Hall, in this city, September 12, 1898, to consider the general business cond!- tion of the country. Local Interest. ‘The local board of trade has taken a lively Interest in the movement from the first and will leave nothing undone that can contrib- ute to {ts success. The rooms of the board in the Glover building on F street, opposite Willard’s Hall, will be used as executive headquarters. President Warner has ap- Pointed the following committees for the Purposes of the convention: Delegates to convention—B. H. Warner, chairman; Thomas W. Smith, 8. W. Wood- ward, George T. Dunlop and C. I. Bell, Committee of arrangements—Alexander D. Anderson, chairman; Thomas Somerville, S. W. Curriden, W. H. Moses and F. L. Moore. ‘They are all first-class men and will un- doubtedly reflect credit on the city they represent. They will use their best endeav- at the same time boom the project for the establishment of permanent headquarters in this city. ‘The advantage of such an es- tablishment is so patent that {t ought to require very little effort to bring it about. Boards of trade and business men generally consider this matter of national organiza- tion one of great importance to the thous- and bodies throughout the country, for then they will have a central office to call upon by letter or telegram for information about the status of pending commercial bills, for statistical information, &c. ‘To Be Well Attended. The convention will be in session several be accomplished. There are about eleven hundred bvards of trade in the country, and it is estimated that at least one half of them will be represented at this conven- tion. It is not at all improbable that the delegates will be so numerous that the chosen place of meeting, Willard’s Hall, will be found too small for their accomodation. In that event a larger building will be secured. At any rate it will be a repre- sentative body, as answers have already been received of the attendance of prominent merchants, manufacturers, bankers and railway men from all parts of the United States. The delegates of the New York Board of Trade are expected to arrive here this evening, and the Massachusetts delega- tion and most of the others will get here Monday. ‘There will be no special program of enter- tainment. The convention is called for purely business purposes and banquets, re- ceptions and other forms of entertainment are not expected. An address of welcome will be made to the delegates by Mr. B. H. Warner, president of theWashington Board of Trade. ‘The convention will be attended by som of the most successful business men of the country and their deliberations will be watched with special interest, in the confi- dent hope of the accomplishment of results So tee best, interests: Of; the: country! at —_— Thrown From a Horse. Elmer Landvoigt, the ten-year-old son of Mr. W. H. Landvoigt of the Post Office Department, was thrown from a horse last week at Front Royal, Va. where he hi been spending the summer. He was dragge. a considerable distance with one foot caught in the stirrup before the horse could be stopped and his unconscious form rescued. He now lies in a very critical condition, suffering from concussion of the brain. cee A Mechanics’ Lien Case. The Court of Appeals, through Chief Jus- tice Alvey, has, for the first time, rendered an opinion in the equity case of Forsberg & Murray against C. C. Lefler et al., co! struing certain portions of the mechanic: lien law of importance to contractors and persons engaged in building operations. The compiainants under contract with one Jesse Shreeve constructed a passenger elevator in the Hotel Lincoln, at the corner of 10th and H streets northwest, and filed their Dill to enforce the lien. Three points were raised by the defendants. (1) That the lien should have been filed in the name of Jesse Shreeve instead of Lefler, who became the owner of the property after the contract was made. @ That no len canbe filed against a building for an elevator, which it was claimed was not the subject of a lien under the statute. @) That Shreeve was a necessary party to the suit brought to execute the len. The court in its dects- fon overruled all these points and held that such a suit was a proceeding in rem. (against the property) and that the objections raised by the defendant were not sustained by the statute. Messrs. Edward A. jewman and Jullus A. Maedel appeared as counsel tor the defendants. a Concert at the White House Grounds. ternoon at 5 o'clock at the White House grounds will be in the nature of a recog- j nition of the popular airs of the day, the following program having been arranged by Prof. Fanciulll: March—U. 3. 8.

Gilbert Reid, who is at the Fre- donia, is a missionary returned from China, who !s credited with a familiar acquaint- ance with the feeling of the ruting classes in that land. He has been in Washington several times to work in behalf of a modl- fication of the Geary law. Speaking to a Star reporter today Mr. Reid said: “Of course I cannot speak authoritatively for elther the administration or for Con- gress or for the Chinese, but I believe there is a willingness on the part of many to re- store the friendly feeling of the past und 80 modify the law as to remove all the harsh features and be acceptable to China.” When asked what he thought of the probiem as it now is Mr. Reid replied: “I regard the problem as a very intricate une and needing the soundest diplomacy, or some one will suffer by ignoring the car- dinal principles of right. “As treaties have existed between China and the United States ever since the year 184, and as the Chinese residing in the United States are still the subjects of China, any legislation dealing with the Chinese should be governed by a spirit of friendliness, in harmony with the princi- ples of international comity. The one ob- Sect, therefore, to be insisted on is not any Particular scheme, but the maintenance of friendly relations between these two friend- ly treaty powers. “The wishes and demands of our fellow American citizens especially concerned with this problem should be carefully considered, and as far as possible met and observed. ‘There should be an agreement on the main intent and the ostensible object of our Jate legislation dealing with the Chincve problem. For the sake of preserving the good order of certain sections of our coun- try and the character of our institutions there should be for at least a time a re- striction of Chinese immigration to the number already here. Then there should be laws regulating the coming or residence of the Chinese. Measures should also be taken to prevent the clandestine entrance of those who by law are excluded; and all Chinese hostile to our government shuuld be punished, and if possible removed from our territory. Finally all aliens, and the Chinese included, must learn that our laws must be observed, so long as they reside within our territory. “Now, for the other side, also a duty. As treaties have been concluded by the wntted States with China, they should as fur a8 possible be observed and not violated, while in the case of difficulties which have since arisen they should at the earliest moment be diplomatically settled by an harmonious Agreement between the two countries and | a supplementary treaty. For the sake of the credit and fair name of our country we should not unnecessarily break a solemn compact made between our government and another. For the sake of the effect of western and Christian civilization on the civilization of China all the essential and recognized principles of international in- tercourse should be carefully maintai and for the sake of the security and wel- fare of Americans, and, in fact, all for- elgners, residing in China, nothing should be done to weaken the force of treaty rights and treaty protection. Finally, jf ‘the favored nation idea’ is to accrue to the advantage of Americans in China, It should also accrue to the benefit of the Chinese in the United States. So also If the principle of ex-territoriality clearly established for Americans in China by the treaty of 1880 is deemed a necessity, because of the i. Justice of Chinese law, then just and equtt- able legislation should be maintained by our government that ex-territoriality may be seen to be unnecessary in our land. “Here, then, is the problem, and the wise method is to harmonize these principles and not tgnore them. If action should now be taken clearly one-sided, woe unto the nation that countenances it. Some will suffer, and they may be innocent American citizens deprived of the protection which treaties heretofore have extended them in China. Let something be done recoznizing all claims, rights and obligations. There is a splendid chance for us to put >urselves right, and possibly we may recklessly fore- go our chance." ——E COLORED BAPTISTS. Three Important Bodies to Hold Ses- sions in This City. ‘There will be three very important bodies meeting in this city next week. The three bodies will be separate and at the same time united, many members of one being also members of the others. The bodies are the three annual conventions of colored Baptists, representing respectively foreign missions, the national or home missions and education. All three conventions meet in the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church. ‘The foreign mission convention opens on ‘Thursday, the 14th, and continues through to the 1sth. The national convention fol- lows on the 17th and 18th, while from the evening of the 18th until the Zist the edu- cational body will be in session. A very large number of delegates, prob- ably about 1,000, are expected to be present at the three conventions and these dele- gates will represent much of the influence and brains of the colored race. Many im- portant topics will be broached at the ses- sions and thoroughly discussed. The plan of organizing a publishing house for the publications intended distinctively for the colored race will be raised. An important subject to be taken up by the educational convention will be the ques- tion of the establishment of a summer school on the Chautauqua plan in Anne Arundel county, Md., on property given for that purpose by Judge Rutfin of this city. The foreign mission convention will have much of importance to engage its attention. ‘This organization has many missionaries stationed in western ceniral Africa, who are carrying on successful work. The presi- dent of the foreign mission branch is Dr. A. R. Griggs of Texas. Dr. M. Vann of Tennessee is president of the national or- ganization, while Dr. P. T. Morris holds a like position for the educational section. The sessions will be public throughout and will undoubtedly attract large aud- fences. The opening address before the national and educational sections will be made by ex-Senator Bruce. ‘The local colored Baptists have left noth- ing undone to prepare for the comfort of their guests and arrange for their enter- tainment. Dr. George W. Lee, the pastor of the Vermont Avenue Church, is the chairman of the general committee. Prof. W. A. Creditt, pastor of the Berean Church is chairman of the committee on reception. Dr. Bishop Johnson of the committee on finance and Dr. W. H. Brooks of the com- mittee on public press. The committee on social entertainment has Rev. J. A. Taylor as {ts chairman. THE COURTS.

Albaugh’s.—At Albaugh’s,. on Monday evening, John T. Kelly and his company of comedians will appear in the comedy of “McFee of Dublin,” written by Charles T. Vincent and Mr. Kelly. The new play has made a distinct hit wherever it has been produced, and as Mcifee, the bogus lord, Kelly is said to have the best chance of his professional career to dis- play to advantage his abilities us a fun- maker. Unlike most comedies of the pres- ent, “McFee of Dublin” has an interesting and well-told story running throughout, the complications and situations are funny and original, and the specialties introduced are @ part of the action of the play. Mr. Kelly is one of the best personators of Irish character on the stage, his methods are legitimate, and his brogue is 4s mellow as the oldest ‘potheen. He has surrounded himself this season with a good company, including Georgie Parker,Adelaide Randall, an excellent prima donna, and Wary Kel- ly. The scenery and costumes are all new and very elaborate, one scene show:ng the Palisades on the Hudson river, being par- ticularly effective. “Lady of Venice.""—Miss Katharine Clem- mons, who will star the comin season in “A Lady of Venice,” has secured Mr. Fran- cls Carlyle as her leading mean. He is well-known as @ competent actor and handsome man. It is estimated that her expenses for each current week will be in the neighborhood of $2,000, but when the production is seen, it is sald, ‘t will be Teadily understood ‘that so large an expen- diture was necessary. Indications poiut to @ successful opening for the young and ambitious star, who will make her first ap- pearance before a Washington public on Monday, September 18, at Albaugh’s Grand Opera House. New National Theater.—Next week Ram- say Morris’ Comedy Company will be the attraction at the New Nationai Theater, appearing in “Joseph,”which was seen here last season, and in a new play entitled “The Judge.” Academy of Music.—The Academy of ‘Music will open Monday night for the sea- gon with Ezra Kendall and company in a new comedy drama callled “The Substi- t “As You Like It"--Next Friday,Mr. Chas. B. Hanford and Professor N. Dushane Cloward will present Shakespeare's comedy “As You Like It” on the green lawn at Marshall Hall. The cast will include some well-known professionals, including Miss Galliard and Mr. Creston Clarke, and Mr. Hanford will himself play Jaques. The music incident to the plece will be sung by the Capitol Glee Club, and the whole performance will be most interesting. ‘Ag it will be given chiefly for the benefit of the Knights of Pythias, and in aid of the fund that order is raising to bring its Na- tional Encampment to this city next year, it is believed that every Pythian will exer? himself to make the event a succcss. It will afford people an opportunity for a pleasant sail down the river, and then to witness a complete performance of one of the most charming of comedies. Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.-—John _ F. Field's “Drawing Cards” comes to The Ly- ceum next week. The talent comprising this combination ts far above the usual standard, and Includes, besides those two tried fun-providers, Fields and Hanson, a company of capable specialty performers, among whom may be mentioned Cunning- ham and Grant, Bartlett and May, Eldora and Norine, the Austrian jugglers, Charley Case in a black-face monologue specialty, Edgar and Curren, the Irish Shoemakers: Miss Maude Beverly, McMahon and King, the Salambos. Harris’ Bijou Theater.—' a thrilling nautical drama, tv Martin Hayden, will be presented at Harris’ ‘1hea- ter next week, with the author in che lead: ing role. The play possesses many sen- | sational and = melodramatic features. The comedy element is especially well sustained, and permits the in- troduction of some clever specialties, among others the Harmonic Trio. and Nip and Tuck, the grotesque pickaninny dan- cers, The scenery is elaborate, many new mechanical and electrical effects being in- troduced. The storm scene on the ocean, during which a boat is dashed to pleces,and in which there is @ rainfall of real water, 1s a striking bit of stage work. Mr. Hay den’s support comprises a number of well- known persons, who are familiar to Wash- ington theater goers. ——__ METHODIST CONFERENCE Im Session at Bowie With a Very Large Attendance. Correspoudence of The Evening Star. BOWIE, Md., Sept. 7, 1893. ¢ ‘The Washington district conference of the M. E. Church convened here at 9 a.m., Rev. W. H. Brooks, presiding elder, in the chair.

The roll was called, after which Rev. M. J. Naylor wai elected secretary, with Rev. F. H. Brooks assistant. ‘The various standing committees were ap- pointed. Rev. Noble Watkins, pastor at Bowie, delivered the address of welcome in a manner that touched all hearts. Rev. W. H, Gaines responded in a speech of marked felicity on behalf of the conference. Rules for the government of the body were read and adopted. The presiding elder read a very encouraging report of his work, which was followed by reports from the pastors touching the work in their respective charges. It was shown that seasons of revivals had been enjoyed in many places, resulting in a gratifying Increase of the membership. The work among the young people in Sunday schools and Epworth League chapters had made an advance, and notwithstanding the stringent financial condition, some churches had been bullt and paid for, and collections for the benevolent causes did not show the shrinkage which was apprehended. The question, “Is the gospel losing its power over the masses,” was discussed at some length. Rev. E.A. Stockett preached at night to a crowded house. The attendance upon the session Is large, and the people are providing entertainment in a royal manner. ——__ Trin} Board of the Castine. ‘The trial board for the Castine, which is to be tested next Tuesday, ts as follows: Rear Admiral John G.

Ss ° ‘Three years ago my wife, four Mttle children ‘sud myself were afflicted with « crusty, scaly dis- ease of the wkin. It tormented us all. Such a Plague I hope will never again visit my family. My children’s ages were respectively nine, ser: ind four years, except the youngest, who was ouly two months old. Of all our suffering, my wife suffered the most. It almost drove her mad. ‘The disease first made tts appearance on my wife's back between the shoulders and spread across to her breast. It looked like {t was covered over with Uttle scales. I first bought of a drug store medt- eine for skin diseases, which failed to do any good whatever. I next employed a doctor, who gave re- Uef for a short while, After trying him for quite & while without effecting a cure I called in an- ‘other doctor, who proved to do no better than the first. After this I bought CULICURA REMEDIES of Messrs. Purcell, Ladd & Co., Richmond, having read of them in a newspaper. Relief fol- lowed the first application, and five or six sets cured all of us. I do not know what the disease Was we had, it affected us all alike, but I do know CUTICURA cured us of that skin disease. Rev. J. N. WOODS, Avon, Nelson county, Va.
