Passed. |, Baltimore was brought forward to be| | {tdorsed as the place wherein the confer- | |erce of '96 be held. After some discussion |the resolution was favorably acted upon. | Various papers submitted to the assembled ministers were referred to the committee for home missions. The report of the Baltimore City Church Extension Society was read by J. P. Bow- ers and referred to Home Mission Society. Camp Disturbances. The discussion of the resolution relating to camp meeting rules was resumed. This proved to be the most earnestly discussed subject of the morning. The Rev. Mr. Streyer waxed warm on the Mt. Airy dis- turbances of last year, and his words creat- ed a noticeable impression on all his hear- ers. Liquor, cigars and tobacco, which, he stated, were easily obtained in the neigh- borhood, had caused it all. They were breeders of disturbances everywhere. Some Methodist Protestant ministers, he sald, had not used their efforts to restrain the | sale of these things. In fact, he thought they had rather sided with the sellers. Dr. | Chariton also spoke on the subject to the interest of his hearers. Other Business. It was moved, the motion seconded and favorably acted upon that a committee be appointed to wait upon the President of the United States, and request that at his con- venience he and Mrs. Cleveland receive the conference and lady visitors. The motion |was amended so as to include Baby Ruth jin the request. The committee appointed was as follows: Rev. J. J. Murray, Rev. W. R. Graham, Rev. C. W. Button ‘and Rev. W. F. King. It was announced that Manufacturer Smith of Baltimore had donated to the con- ference the use of a typewriter. The subscription committee announced their readiness to receive additional con- tributions. A temperance committee was appointed. Two o'clock tomorrow atfter- noon was the time appointed for the meet- ing of the Home Mission Society. Tellers, previously appointed, reported that the vote for a committee on appeals re- suited in the election of Rev. H. T. Coun- sell. ——-— Personal Mention. j Edward B.

T., April 5.—A courier just in from the locality of the Indian trouble reports the fighting still in progress. The soldiers became engaged at 6 o'clock Wed- nesday night. Fourteen soldiers and set- uers have been killed or wounded, and twenty-eight of the Indians are known to be killed. The Indians are surrounded practically on the Washita river, but the bushwhacking continues. Each party is shooting at every opportu- nity. The sheriff of “G” and “H” counties have organized and gone to the assistance of the settlers. All the soldiers from Fort Reno are now in the field, except three troops of cavalry. The courier is from the sheriff of “G” county, who sends for ammunition and as- sistance. His brother here has hastily organized a party and left this noon for the battle ground. The continued fighting has greatly alarmed the people and the most intense ex. citement prevails. Parties are hastily or- ganizing and going to the fight, and much alarm is expressed sat the number of sol- diers who have been killed. ————— THE ARDLAMONT MYSTERY. It is Revived by the Surrender of Scott. LONDON, April 5.—The mysterious and long-missing man, known as “Scott,” who was jointly indicted with Alfred John Mon- son for the killing of Lieut. HambiTugh, which crime has become known as the “Ardlamont murder mystery,” surrendered himself today to the police. Now the question which arises in the minds of those who are familiar with the workings of the laws of Scotland is, can Monson be placed on trial again if evidence | which Scott may furnish to the police shows that the man who obtained a verdict of “not proven” was really the person who caused Lieut. Hambrough’s death. —_—s THOUGHT TO BE MURDER. ‘The Dead Body of a Virginia Politi- cian Found. RICHMOND, Va., April 5.—Mr. C. 8. ‘Thomas of Columbia, Fluvanna county, ex- member of the legislature and chairman of the democratic committee of that county and a member of one of the most prominent families in Virginia, was found dead under a bed in a negro brothel in this city early this morning. The police pronounce it murder, but the coroner thinks the man died of hemorrhage of the lungs, notwithstanding the fact there were suspicious bruises about the head. He was unable to say, however, what pro- duced the hemorrhage. The blows may have caused it. ie Gen. Frye’s Men Told to Leave. was, she said, upon the occasion of a con- test between the rival literary societies of the college, when Miss Pollard won a signal victory for her side. Mr. Rozell was one of an audience of about 600 people, which had gathered to hear the contest. The contest was a debate between the two societies, she then being very youthful. Continuing, the witness said that she had seen Mr. Rodes at the school a num- ber of times. He came to see Mr. and Mrs. Brown and Miss Pollard. Asked as to his character and appearance, the wit- ness said that he seemed to be an honest gentleman, surrounded by an atmosphere of perfect purity and with the manner of a man who had the greatest and most reverential respect for women. His hear- ing toward Miss Pollard was most unob- jectionable. As to Miss Po! ‘s Youth. On cross-examination the witness said that she did not remember the subject of the literary debate, but that Miss Pollard’s victory “was all the more remarkable on account of her youth, as she won the prize from young women much older than her- self.” “Her youth, I presume,” said Mr. Butter- worth, “as you learned it from the college register?” “No; I mean her youth as she appeared and as she actually was.” “That will do,” said Mr. Butterworth. He had quite enough, for the plaintiff had cored quite a decided victory in getting in | this evidence of Miss Pollard’s age. Judge Bradley Asks Some Questions. At this point Judge Bradley took a hand in the examination, and his questions to the witness developed the fact that at the school on Friday evenings there were usually from fifteen to thirty or forty vis: itors, and that the rooms were all open, so | that people were constantly passing from room to room, so that even a semblance of privacy or secrecy was impossible. Miss Lowell Recalled. Miss Louise Lowell was next recalled by Mr. Carlisle and examined by Mr. Wilson. He asked her to state as near as she could the nature of the manuscript brought to her by the defendant in February, 1886. Mr. Shelby objected, but the objection was promptly overruled and an exception noted. Miss Lowell said the letter contained but one subject. It was addressed to ‘“‘My dear sister Loulse,” and the witness said that she especially remembered that he spoke of the great love each had for the other, of the disparity between their ages, and that no two people in the same family ever loved each other so dearly. That was the whole tenor of the letter. In another letter he —_ of a literary production which had been declined. In still another, he spoke of the hope that his duties would soon be concluded that they might be again together. The defendant cautioned the person he addressed to be careful to destroy the letters and not to leave them about in bureau drawers. In one letter he addressed her as “My Dear Spitfire," and in another he told her to stand before a glass. Once he wrote of the time of her replies being received here. = he wrote for her to reply by a postal card. The witness was cross-examined by Mr. Butterworth. She stated that'she told coun- sel for defense last Sunday what she knew ST. LOUIS, Mo., April 5.—At a meeting of the representatives of the railroads lead- ing east it was tof@ay decided to refuse to transport Frye'’s band of Coxeyites east- ward. It was decided that the representa- tive of “Gen.” Frye be informed that his men would either have to pay fare or walk. Upon learning this decision the chief of police at East St. Louis directed Gen. Frye to take his men out of the city lmits at once. BRAZIL, Ind., April 5.—Edward Blake, well-known and well-to-do resident of Brazil, who left home three weeks ago, and was supposed to have been foully deal with and robbed, as he had considerable with him, wrote his wife that he had joined Coxey’s ‘army, and would tramp it to Washington. Mrs. Blake received the in- formation last night, and immediately left for Pennsylvania to overtake her husband and Induce him to give up the tramp and return heme. aa An Army Officer's Discipline. RICHMOND, Va., 5.—At Davis College, N. C., Lieutenant Shipp of the United States army, an instructor there, flogged a student named Reeder with a rawhide for some misconduct. Reeder was | so badly beaten that he had to be sent to the hospital. A student who criticised Shipp’s punishment of Reeder was also whipped. Intense excitement prevails at the college, and the students are indignant toward Shipp. ee The Twelfth Victim. WILKESBARRE, Pa., April 5.—The body of the twelfth victim in the Gaylor mine, Dan W. Morgan, was recovered at an early hour this morning. He, like his compan- ions, was caught under the fall and in- stantly killed. Morgan was a widower, fifty-two years of age. Only one more body now remains in the mine, that of Thomas Picton, the foreman. eae Lockout of Chicago Painters. CHICAGO, IIL, April 5.—Nearly all the painters in Chicago will be idle tomorrow., ‘The association of employers yesterday de- cided to take aggressive measures against ‘ the pending strike, and agreed to a general lockout, by which 3,000 men are thrown out of employment. Seventy-seven firms signed an agreement to suspend operations for the present. —_———_. A 238 Pound Bride. HARRISBURG, Pa., April 5.—Miss Alice G. Yingst of Sand Beach, Dauphin county, Pa.,who is twenty-six years old and weighs | 888 pounds, started last night for Coeur | D'Alene, Idaho, to meet her prospective husband, whom she has never seen. Miss Yingst answered an advertisement signed by Harry Cratzer, which she saw in a Chi- cago matrimonial journal about tive months ago, and the engagement resulted. a iain Race Track Crookednes: LITTLE ROCK, Ark., April 5.—Judge Barres yesterday received a letter confirm- Ing his suspicions in regard to the horse Experience, which was ruled off here Mon- day afternoon. The horse was entered in name of W. H. Turner of Hot Springs, but as Mr. Turner could not give satisfactory proof of ownership the judges refused to allow Experience to start, beliving him to be the property of the notorious Brannons, who have made so many killings with ringers, and that they had the men posted in nearly every pool room in the country last Monday afternoon to back the horse Experience. ts es The Republican Ticket of '92. SAN FRANCISCO, April 5.—The Untiver- sity Club gave a banquet last night in honor of ex-President Harrison, Whitelaw Reld, Robert T. Lincoln, Gen. Schofield and Theo. Wolsely of Yale College.

The letters she copied for Mr. Breckinridge were always from manuscript and were not from dictation. She never asked him why he wanted them copied. The last was writ- ten during the long session, she thought, though it might have been in’ the short ses- sion of 1886-7. | ‘The tirst letter she wrote for him was be- tween February 25 and March 15, 1886. She fixed this date because she first began work on the former date, and the first charge he found in her note book against him was [on the latter date. The “spitfire” letter was one of the eariler letters, and the “Sister |Louise” letter was about a page and a haif typewriting. She could not recall on what sort of paper the manuscript was. Mr. Butterworth asked the witness if she knew by what instrumenjality the defense had learned that she knew anything about the case. She sald that she had not the slightest Idea, nor did she know where she got the little blank book in which she kept her accounts. Mary Yancey Called. The witness was then excused, and Mary Yancey, a big colored woman, was then | called to the stand. She used to be the cook t Mrs, Thomas’ house on H street. a Medals of Honor.

Dr. Jones departed for the west last night and will be absent for some time. Resolutions of respect, sympathy and hope were adopt- ed by the Tabernacle congregation on Sun- day last and resolutions generally similar were put on record by students of Howard University.
