THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. ©, MONDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1898—TEN PAGES. ————— THECENTRAL MISSION | Its New Hall Dedicated Yesterday With Appropriate Exercises, INTEREST iN THE TREASURER'S REPCRY. Many Interesting Addresses Made by Different Clergymen. THE ANNIVERSARY MEETING. With the pastors on the platform and their laymen composing the greater portion of the audience that filled the new auditor- fum im the building of the Central Union Mission, the Protestant churches of the city were well represented at the meeting which was held yesterday afternoon. The occasion ‘was the dedication of this fine new hall, but it was really a jubilee meeting over the Progress that had been made in advancing the Interests of this worthy enterprise. Whether viewed from a financial standpoint or from a point of view that is not quite so material, the mission is a proper subject for congratulation. This was evident fromwhat ‘was said and done at the meeting yesterday. ‘Those in immediate charge of the work of the mission thanked the pastors and the churches for the support and the co-opera- tion which the mission had received from these organizations, while the pastors ex- pressed appreciation that the work which fs a part of the duty of the churches was Deing done so efficiently by the mission. ‘The churches working through the mission and the mission working in harmony with the churches, that was the burden of the speeches yesterday, as well as the meaning ef the coming together of the representa- tives of so many churches and denomina- tions. ‘The Report of the Treasurer. ‘The report of the treasurer, Mr. T. A. Harding, was listened to with a great deal of interest, because everybody was interested in knowing how the mission was carrying the burden which was assumed when the property was purchased. Of course, it was known that there was little cash on hand when the mission went into the new build- img scheme. ‘The figures of the report showed that $6,000 had been paid, or rather agreed to be paid, for the property. Of this amount about $19,000 had been paid in cash, Yeaving an indebtedness of $46,000. In order the First Presbyterian Church and Rev. Dr. Butler of the Luther Memorial Church. ‘The Evening Meeting. In the evening another large audience assembled, and listened to the exercises in connection with the celebration‘of the ninth anniversary of the establishment of the mission. The chairman of the board of di- rectors, Capt. J. H. Hitchcock, presided, and the meeting was very similar to those usually held by the mission Sunday nights, with the exception that the report of the secretary, Mr. A. L. Swartwout, and that of the treasurer, Mr. M. A. Robbins, were read. The testimony meeting was con- ducted by Rev. Mr. Bailey, and was char- acterized by the spirit and animation which js the feature of the religious meetings held at the mission. This brought to a close a day which Ys memorable in the his- tory of the mission, and one that was full of interest and profit. a KILLED ON THE ESSEX. America’s Brave jors Erected at Valparaiso. ‘The minister of the United States to Chile reported to the Department of State In @ recent dispatch that, accompanied by the United States.consul at Valparaiso, he had visited the monument in the foreign ceme- tery at that city erected over the graves of the officers and seamen of the United States frigate Essex, Capt.

Ames, assistant surgeon, agd other officers of the United States ships ichmond, Adams, Omaha and Pensacol ‘The monument thus erected by the contr! butions of officers and seamen of the United States naval service and of American citi- to prepare the building for the use of the mission some $12,000 had been expended in improvements, and of this sum %,00) had been given by one person—a lady. Rev. E. D. Bailey said that the donor did not wish to have her name mentioned and it was only known to a few. In the course of his ad- dress Rev. Dr. Hamiin referred to this lady as being a member of his congregation. It was stated that the indebtedness of the mission was now represented in a trust for $00,000, at five per cent interest, and the bal- ance in $250 notes, which were held mainly fm this city. Rev. Mr. Bailey said that it was hoped that they would soon be able to pay off the ldtter and they wanted sixty- four men to come forward and agree to take up one of these notes each. He said that he knew that there were plenty of men in the city who could do this with ease, but they in the mission had been looking up rather than around. and they were better acquainted with the Lord than they were with men in this city who had means. Arrangement of the New Hi: With a practical looking forward to the future as well as thankfulness for the suc- eess which had crowned the efforts put forth in behalf of the mission the dedication meet- ing was a joyful occasion. The new hall, which is oblong in shape, with the longest side in the width and deep galleries on the three sides, was filled to overflowing, and peopie were crowded along the walls, where they stood during the entire exercises. From the platform the audience seemed to be grouped in easy reach, and Mr. Bailey im speaking of the place as being specially adapted to the peculiar work of the mission said that while tt would seat about 1,500 peo- ple yet none of the seats were so far away from the platform as to seem remote. in other words, he said there would be no dif- ficulty in a good live speaker standing on the platform and reaching any one in the gudience. The hall was not so large but that aa audience could be warmed up, and they were thankful for that among the many other biessings which they could re- count. ‘The Dedication Exercises. ‘The singing was under the leadership of Mr. George W. Haveli, the musical director of the mission. An organ and a special orchestra supplied the instrumental music. ‘The music had plenty of go about it, al- though there was the disadvantage of the absence of the regular mission audience, their places being taken by the churca peo- pie who have not learned to sing with the Vim that‘is the feature of the meetings at ihe mission. However, there were some of the mission peopie there and once in a while Bir. Havell gave them a chance by swinging tte the sturing meiody of such @ selecuon as “When the vattic is over we suai wear the crown.” Everybody was drawn in, and the wails of the new hall were baptized with we dashi waves of the sturring worship that goes up im song. A solo was sung by Mr. P. 5. Foster and also by Miss Alice Kimball, whose voice is dedicated to the work of the mission. She is the daughter of Judge Ivory G. Kimball, who is the airman of the building committee. He presided at the meeting, and aiter the opening exercises. which were participated in by Rev. F. D. Power, who read the Scriptures, and Dr. Hugh Johnson, who made the prayer, the judge made a few re- marks in which he expressed the thankful- hess of all those who Were interested in the mission that they were at last in the pos- session of a suitable building. The prayer of dedication was made by Rev. Dr. 8. M. Newman, then followed addresses by the @ifferent pastors of the city, who occupied seats on the platform. Rev. Dr. Hamlin, stor of the Church of the Covenant, and ev. Ur. McKim, the rector of the Church | of Epiphany, made earnest, forcible ad- dresses, indorsing in the warmest manner the character of the work done by the mis- | sion and its importance in relation to the eburches. Mr. Batley’s Address. ) Then Mr. Bailey made his address, ref- erence to which has been made above. He expressed the thanks of the mission to all the friends who had contributed in money or by their time and labor to the comple- tion of the work of getting the building ready. He said that even common laborers had worked cheerfulty day after day on the | building for only a smail compensation, the | difference being intended by them as a gift to the mission. He referred to the many avenues of work which were opened before | the mission, and said that they were co: fronted with problems, and that sometimes the members of the board thought that they | had not sufficient wisdom to solve them. Just now they were puzzled to know what to do in the case of friendless women who came to them for assistance. Then there were men who were not tramps in any sense of the word, but who were tempora- rily out of work, and therefore in distress. Something ought to be done for both these classes, and while the faetlities of the mise.| were aS yet meager, still they were| trying to do their best in ‘meeting the con-| diti which were presented. He trusted that they would have a way opened to | them, and that their friends would keep them in their minds and in their hearts. Mr. Moedy Invited to Come Here. He then announced that a collection Would be taken up. and that first of all cums would be distributed for those who wished to put down the amounts they ‘would be willing to contribute by the month end year. While the collectors were going ound several songs were sung. Mr. Bailey sald that th a favorable prospect that Mr. Moody woud accept an invita- tion to hold a two weeks’ series of meet- mgs in this city this winter, providing one was extended to him. He sald that the | nvention Hall could be secured for about | ) a week, and he felt confident the neces- ¥ funds to defray the expenses of such meetings could be secured from the churches. He then offered a resolution ex- | tending such an invitation to Mr. Moody, | and the resolution was unanimously | adopted. Brief addresses then followed from Representative Morse of Massachu- | setts, Rev. Dr. Todd of Hamline M. E Church, Rev. Dr. Domer of the English Lutheran Church, Rev. Dr. Sunderland of zens domiciled in Chile, has been maintained in perfect condition by the care and atten- tion of their countrymen residing there. a MeCOOK’S REPORT. « Military Operations in the New De- partment of Colorado. ‘The first annual report made with ref- erence to operations in the new military department of Colorado, established in July last, has been received at the War Depart- ment from Brigadier Gen. A. McD. Me- Cook, its commander. The department consists of the state of Colorado and the territories of New Mexico, Arizona and Utah, with headquarters at Denver. It has 40,784 Indians within its borders, and fre- quent outbreaks in years past have made it important from a mUitary point of view. Gen. MeCook says, however, that all the Indians holding homes in the department have been quiet and peaceful during the years. Some few disturbances occurred upon the borders of the Navajo reserva- tion, but a prompt use of troops from Fort Wingate prevented the emeute from spreading, and the general says he hopes that, with constant watchfuiness, peace may be maintained within the limits of the department. Gen. McCook recommends the abandon- ment of old Fort Bowie, Arizona; that the military reservations of Fort Verde, Ariz., and Fort Union, N. Mex., be turned over to the Interior Department and opened to settlement, and that Fort Wingate, N. Mex., and Fort Logan, Col., ten miles from Denver, be made regimental posts. —_——_—_+-o+__—_ MEXICAN BOUNDARY LINE. The Vexed Question to Be Finally Settled at Last. The United States and Mexico have ar- ranged for the settlement of the much dis- puted question of the boundary line. be- tween the two countries east of El Paso, ‘Texas, along the course of the Rio Grande. An international commission has been ap- pointed to determine the boundary. It is composed of two members, one represent- ing each government. The member on the part of the United States is Col. Anson Mills of third cavalry, who is said to be specially well qualitied for the work. Years ago the river bed of the Rio Grande was agreed upon as the boundary line be- tween Texas and the eastern half of the northern border of Mexico. That river has several times changed its course, uritil border Tgxans lived in imminent danger of awaking some morning in another coun- try. The change in the river bed created controversy and embarrassments, some of them involving the officlals at Washing- ton and the City of Mexico, and first and last there has been a great deal of corre- spondence on the matter. The Point at Issue. Some held that he boundary line changed with the bed of the Rio Grande, and others that the original bed was still the bound- ary line, and as all disputes were inter- national matters and might lead to more than the occasional exchange of rifle shots It was finally decided to have another survey from the mouth of the Rio Grande to the City of El Paso, which is in the west- ern extremity of Texas, and in the center of the boundary line between this country and Mexico. From El Paso to the Pacific coast the line has been carefully gone over and laid down by Col. Barlow of the army engineers. That line, which marks the southern border of New Mexico, Arizona and California, follows the course of no uncertain river, and can- not change. The trouble has been with the country east of El Paso, and this is the line to be surveyed by the commission just ap- pointed. It is hoped that the determina- tion of this boundary question will forever settle the troublesome question of juris- diction along our southern border. -_ PROCLAIMS HIMSELF DICTATOR. temala Takes Absolute Control. Trouble has broken out now in a fresh | place on the southern continent, as shown by a‘cable message received at the State Department from the United States min- ister to Guatemala, saying: “The President of Guatemala this day de- clared himself dictator, dissolved the extra session of Congress, assumed. control of government and ordered a new election. ‘The matter was discussed at the cabinet meeting, and it was decided to send a war- ship to the seat of the latest trouble. The Alliance, now at Corinto, Nicaragua, is the nearest available ship, and orders were cabled to her commander to proceed at | once to San Jose de Guatemala or other important port of Guatemala for the pro- tection of American interests. Brazil and Guatemala are now the only countries of South America requiring the presence of United States warships, although there are |} rumors of impending trouble at the coming elections in Peru. The Yorktown {s at Callao, the Alliance will soon be at Guate- mala and the Charleston and Yantie are in Brazilian waters, where they will be joined within a few days by the Newark and the Detroit. it is*said that the cruiser New York, now fitting out at New York, will also.be ordered to Rio"de Janeiro, in case the United States should become Involved in the growing complications at that port. oe The New Hospital Buildings. Bids were opened at the Department of the Interior Saturday for the erection of two buildings at the Government Hospital for the Insane, for the <ecommodation of epileptic patients. The bids and bidders were as follow 1. Dunn, $23,000; Jas. L. Parsons, $2,761: Peter Hepburn, $21.00 James H. Grant, $21,437; C. R. Monroe, 319, - 97; W. E. Speir & Co., $26,900; F. A. Blun- don, $23,088; Dennis Callity & Co. $21.74: C. Thomas & Son, $25,918. The lowest bidder ts C, R. Monroe, ‘but Messrs. Cullity & Co. and*James H. Grant entered a protest against the acceptance of his bid on the ground that he is a bricklayer and not a builder. The protests will be considered and the contract awarded on Monday. ELECTION EXPENSES. ‘They Are Being Called for From Rockville Office Holders. Correspoudence of The Evening Stat ROCKVILLE, October 15, 1893. ‘The receipt last week by two or three democratic officials at this place of requests to contribute from their salaries in ald of the campaign fund is the first intimation to anybody in this section that any cam- ign was in progress. No meetings have been held or even announced, no speakers | have been engaged, ani where the expense item of this supposed campaign comes in is a subject of much speculation. About the only point in the present contest that has elicited any comment in this county is the recent alliance, offensive and defen- sive, between the “ring” managers and a portion of the “indeperdent” leaders in Baltimore and this action is attributed to the desire of having a solid delegation from that city in favor of an assessment law favorable to the interests of the city and to have that delegation solidly backed up by members from the counties who know no law of action except that dictated by the bosses. This state of affairs is evident- ly giving the managers in this county some uneasiness. ‘The officers of registration for the several election districts of the county will hold their last meeting for the present year to- morrow for the purpose of revision and for the hearing of applications for reinstate- ment by persons whose names have been stricken from the lists. Persons not sat- istied with the decisions of the ‘registers can then appeal to a judge of the circuit court. ‘The democrats claim that the pres- ent registration will add considerable to their vote in the county, while the repub- licans claim that they have gained in sev- eral of the districts.
