RUSSIA IS INDIGNANT Displeased With the Abrogation of Servia’s Constitution, ALEXANDER LOSES THE CZAR'S SUPPORT The Capture of the Anarchistic Conspirators. GENERAL. FOREIGN MATTERS RES! : EEE LONDON, May 22—A dispatch to the Telegraph from St. Petersburg says, regard- ing the abrogation of the constitution by King Alexander of Servia: The news from Servia was received with indignation by all parties. Government circles are especially angry with ex-King Milan for his breach of faith to the czar, whom he had solemnly promised never to return to Belgrade. The government has telegraphed to its ayent at Belgrade to the effect that Russia will not interfere in Servia in any way, but the be- lief, nevertheless, prevails that King Alex- ander’s proclamation is the death of the house of Obrenovich, which has forfeited the czar’s friendship and support. A dispatch to the Standard from Berlin says: The news of the Servian coup has made but a small impression here. All the papers declare that it will damage King Alexander's dynasty more than his country. The correspondent of the Times at Vienna says: Ex-King Milan is at the bottom of the Servian coup. M. Christics, who has been appointed president of the new coun- cil of state, may be described as Milan's friend in need, and will be the guiding spirit of the new regime. The change ts not likely to reduce the disaffection of the country or to diminish the difficulties. The only favorable feature is that both of Ser- via's powerful neighbors. appear to be re- solved to abstain from intervention. The crisis therefore is essentially domestic ard will not influence European politics. King Alexande: of Servia has suspended the constitution of 1888 and restores that of Jupe 29, The ukase abrogates the laWs contrary to the constitution of 186) and revives others which have since been repealed. In addition, {t appoints a new council of state, of which ex-Premier Chris- tics Is president and ex-Minister Veilkovics is vice president. The proclamation also said that many of the state institutions had been made to serve personal and party passions, and that owing to the illegal and unnatural origin of the laws passed during his minority, he had lost all importance from the outset. The king added that he now seeks relief from these troubles by an entente with the peo- ple, and that when passions are allayed and peace and order restored, he, with the peo- ple, will work out a new constitution. With the restoration of the old constitu- tion the secret ballot ceases and the elector- al system of “‘scrutin de liste” is abrogated. The king has taken thia step upon the advice of his father, ex-King Milan. The abolition of the constitution of 1888 revokes all laws enacted under that instrument, which includes the guarantee of freedom of the press, the right to hold public assem- blies, and to maintain secret and other so- cleties and the privilege of local administra- tion. These laws are replaced by the more stringent ones under the constitution of 1869. FRENCH ANARCHISTS CAUGHT. Paris Police Say They Have Maui portant Arrests. PARIS, May 22.—The police of this city have made a number of important arrests of anarchists. The authorities recently re- celved information which led them to believe that in spite of the efforts made to suppress anarchists, conspirators were still actively at work and plotting a series of bomb ex- plosions in various European cities. The po- lice are unwilling, at present, to give full details in regard to the plots; but it is known that the members of this society, at their meetings, drew lots as to who shouid explode bombs in different European cities. One of the prisoners is said to have been connected with the recent outrages at Liege. A post mortem examination of the re- mains of Emile Henry, the anarchist who wi erday morning, shows so violently affected by the sudden manner in which he was aroused to meet his doom that, according to the physicians, he may have died on the baszule Of the guillotine before he was actually be- eaded. The physicians who made the post mortem examination declare that Henry was not in any way tainted with insanity. AS THE “TIMES” REGARDS IT. A London View of the Flow of Gold From the Treasury. LONDON, May 22.—The Times, in a lead- ing article on the depletion of gold in the United States treasury, says: The symp- toms are curiously’ Itke those of last’ year. We need not apprehend such a serious crisis, however, because business prices in the United States are already so low that they cannot be much lower. The drain of goli is a reminder that the United States, in spite of its vast potentiate resources, is a relatively poor country, dependent for floating capital on the older European coun- tries. The United States is in the position of a pushing manufacturer, with a business con- tinually developing with money borrowed from his bankers. These who deal with him find it prudent to keep a watchful eye on any decline in his prosperity, and still more on any signs of his entering upon rash courses. The secret of the continued paralysis is the uncertainty. regarding the future of silver and the tariff. It is cer- tain that the worst act that Congress is capable of passing, and it has considerable capacity in that direction, could not harm American industry so much as the state of uncertainty that the country has been kept in since the democrats came into power. The descent of the United States from its high position of a few years ago in com- merce and finance shows how sensitive a e Plant is commercial prosperity. FEARS FOR THE LORDS. Secretary Morley Thinks the House Beyond Reformation. LONDON, May 22.—Mr. John Morley, chief secretary for Ireland, in a speech at New Castle last night, expressed the fear that the house of lords had gone too far to be mended and must be ended. He declared that the quietude of Irelatid depended upon the keeping of home rule in the fore front of the government's policy. A failure to do that, he said, would inevitably wreck the government. He also declared that the at- tempt to form an independent labor party antagonistic to the liberals was an insane and suicidal policy. Ouida’s Relongings Greedily Bought.

LONDON, May 22.—The remains of Ed- mund Yates will be cremated on May 34 at Woking cemetery. Ge EM THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. Home Missions Occupy the Atten- tion of the Delegates, SARATOGA, N. Y., May 22.—The devo- tional service at the opening of the general assembly this morning was devoted to the subject of “Home Missions.” It was led by Mr. Buchanan of New York. The committee on bills and overtures pre- sented a partial report. An overture had been received from the presbytery of New Albany asking the general assembly to memorialize Congress to enact such regula- tions with reference to the persona! life of their members as will prevent the presence in the national councils of men with im. moral and dissolute habits. A recommenda- tion that no action be taken upon the sub- ject was adopted. The presbytery of Rochester had over- tured the assembly saying that it “views with apprehension the attempt of the gen- eral assembly to make new definitions of dogma, by deliverance and by judicial de- and expressing the view that “no doctrinal statement which is not explicitly contained in the confession of faith of the church is binding on our office bearers. The following reply was adopted: “The general assembly has never under- taken to make new definitions of dogma either by deliverance or judicial decision, nd we hope that this declaration of former mblies,repealed by this general assembly, will allay the apprehensions of our worthy brethren of this presbytery.” In the brief time left for the consideration of home missions, Dr. Lowrie, chairman of the committee on confessional proof texts, got the floor, but he was unable to secure the adoption of his recommendation, on «¢- count of a difference of opinion as to th “Best printed text of the English Bible. The committee desired either the best Eng- lish edition or the best edition of the Ameri- can Bible Society. An impetuous member wished to have the American revision of 1881-85 adopted, and the discussoin which followed caused the whole matter to go over as unfinished busi- ness. Dr. Brown of Portland, chairman of the committee on home missions, then present- ed a report on the subject. The audience was large and appreciative and the gal- leries full. He spoke with emphasis and spirit, paying a special compliment to the work of the women of the church. Concluding he said that the church must raise $1,238,341.40 during the coming year in order to pay the present indebtedness of the board and to enable it to prosecute its work for the twelve months. During the year $906,000 had been received, while a debt of nearly $258,000 is reported, due to a fall- ing off in legacies. The women's missionary societies have contributed $268,000, Under commission from the board are 121 and 168 teachers.. This society representing the board was made by Dr. Duncan J. Me- Millan of New York. Discussion of this subject by the members of the assembly continued during most of the remainder of the session. — FIGHT AT A PRIMARY. A Dozen Men in the Battle and Fifty Shots Fired. HANFORD, Cal., Mery 22—Word has reached here that a battle occurred during the progress of a republican primary in the Dallas school house, about eighteen miles south of here, which resulted in James Mc- Caffrey being instantly killed by Wm.

R., TOILERS IN COUNCIL Second Day’s Session of the Horse- shoers’ Convention. DISCUSSING THE HARD TIMES Reports of Officers Concerning the Industrial Depression. LIST OF THE DELEGATES — + : The second day’s session of the twentieth annual convention of the International Union of Journeymen Horseshoers was held today. There was a full attendance of delegates and quite a good deal of busi- ness was put through. The time was main- ly consumed in examining the credentials of delegates, cettling several contested cases and hearing the reports of the presi- dent and the secretary, and the appoint- ment of committees. President Dever, in his report, set forth that the year had been a trying one on the order, and that it had suffered in sym- pathy with other labor organizations be- cause of the general business depression. He reviewed the labor field, but seemed to draw little solace from the outlook., He Stated that the hors:shoers were not the ovly craft entering a complaint of hard times, and that this was no reflection on the management of the order. He reported that local unions had been, during the past Vice President Myers. year, organized in the following places: Auburn, N. Y.; San Jcse, Cal.; Jersey City, Eloomington, Ii Galesburg, lil; Lafay- ette, Ind.; Saginaw, Mich., and Louisville. He reviewed the work accomplished by the international executive board, and outlined the hopes and aims of the order for the ecming year. Talking Political Economy. The report of Secretary Kenehan also re- ferred to the effect of the industrial depres- sion on the order. Secretary Kenehan in- corporated in his report a great deal of protection and free silver doctrine. He said that the plutocracy had manipulated the press, debauched the courts and pur- chased legislation. ‘The teachings of the fathers of the republic had not been re- spected. The Constitution was not held in- violate. If the republic was to endure, its deliverance must come, he said, from the loyaity and bravery and patriotism of or- ganized labor. Give labor the chance, he said, and it would redeem the government from the suspicion and distrust with which it was now regarded. ‘The report contained a copy of the letter of inquiry sent out by the Senate commit- tee on labor, and the answer which had been made by the International Union. This letter advocated the recoinage of silver, the expansion of the currency and the pro- hibition of interest-bearing bonds. It de- nounced the legislation which, it claimed, vas destroying the equity of contracts and Delegate John Collins. reducing values by the force of an appre- clating gold standard. It struck out against the reduction of tariff duties on imported goods, and argued for the restriction of emigration. The report also included a protest sent to the Senate against the rati- fication of the new Chinese treaty. These reports were couched in strong terms and met with the indorsement of the delegates.

Dr. Daniel ‘Williams of Chicago, who was appointed to succeed Dr. Charles Purvis as surgeon-in-chief of the Freedman’s Hos- pital, arrived in Washington last evening, spent the night at the hospital and entered upon the duties incident to that office to- day. This forenoon he had an interview with the Secretary of the Interior, and the | two came to a complete understanding. In explaining his detention in Chicago,Dr. | Williams told The Star man about an injury to his foot which had kept him a prisoner in his bed for two months, which had con- fiaed him to his Pullman couch all the way from the windy city, and in testimony of all this he showed the reporter a pair of crutches, on which he is now compelled to locomote. The injury to the foot was sus- tained while hunting. He was too new in the harness at this hospital to outline the policy now, but his heart, he said, was in the work, and he vould spare no trouble, time and labor in attempting to place the hospital on a high pane in the professional world and upon a level with the great institutions of the great cities. : He dig not contemplate any changes in the personne! of the hospital. He would es- tablish a training school for nurses as soon as ppssible, and would bring a superin- tendent from the Illinois Training School and two surgical nurses from the Provident Hospital at Chicago. He had strong faith in the utility of this work, and the Secre- tary of the Interior was in sympathy with it also. “Secretary Smith,” said Dr. Wil- liams, “approves everything tending to the improvement of this hospital. He manifested a warm interest in it.” Dr, Williams will, he says, afford the full- est freedom at the hospital to those young men who are thirsting for medical knowl- edge. The second floor of the main building is soon to be converted into a quarters for the treatment of recent surgical cases, and this improvement will increase the capacity of the hospital by about fifty. Dr. Williams said many pleasant things about Washing- ton and its people, and hoped that his resi- dence here would bear out the impressions which he had received. The reporter want- ed to talk politics with the doctor, but he knew nothing about such things. He knows medicine and surgery, and has made a study of hospital methods, but it was very clear that he was not an adept at politics. He assured the reporter that there would be no politics in the hospital. Dr. Williams was accompanied from Chi- cago by Dr. E. E. Barr, resident surgeon at Provident Hospital, Chicago. Dr. Williams still suffers from his wound, but said that he came because he thought the change might do him good, and then the Secretary of the Interior had already been very lenient. Dr. Williams said that all ie = to fix him up was a little nerve force. —___ Good Time at Odd Fellows’ Hall. Odd Fellows’ Hall, 7th street northwest, was crowded to overflowing last evening on the occasion of the semi-annual visitation of Naomi Lodge, No. 1, Daughters of Re- bekah. The following program was ren- dered, and during the evening Grand Mas- ter John H. Wood was presented with a handsome silver pitcher with goblet at- tached. Chester R. Faulkner was also re- membered by the lodge by the presentation of a handsome Bible: Opening ode, by the ledge; address of welcome, Noble Grand Matthews; response, Grand Master Wood; piano duet, Mrs. Zurhorst and daughter: recitation, Mr. Stern; comic song, Mr. Wm.

The funeral of Mr. James McNerhaney took piace from St. Dominic's Church this morning, where requiem mass was said by Rev. Father Walsh. The interment was at Mt. Olivet cemetery. The friends of Mr. McNerhaney, who have investigated the circumstances of his death, are satisfied that it resulted from his falung from the wharf in an epileptic fit, to which he was subject. They point to the fact that for some time past he had been leading an exemplary life; that he had attended church and partaken of holy communion on Sunday and that on the day of his death he had attended early mass. A large number atterded the funeral cere- monies this morning. +. High Jumping at Fort Myer. Mr. 8. 8. Howland brought his celebrated horse, Ontario, over to the riding hall at Fort Myer on Monday and gave the men an object lesson in jumping, the horse clearing easily five feet eight inches. He has a record of seven feet one inch, but, owing to the bad cross lights in the hall, that was not attempted. Every one ap- precia’ the courtesy of Mr. Howland in thus enabling them to high jumping. BENGAL SANE Phe Dareetsesiins Fourth-Ch stmasters.

The officers and representatives of the Sovereign Council paid a fraternal visit to Potomac Council, at Harper's Ferry, last Saturday night. Thereewas a large number present. Sovereign Chief H. W. Andrews expressed the appreciation of the order for the grand work Potomac Council has done in the work of total abstinence since its organization fiVe years ago; and he cheerfully accorded to that council the hon- or of being the banner council of the onter. It owns its own hall, erected exclusively by the efforts of the members of that council. 1t has been very practical in its work of prohibition, for it has reduced the number of saloons in Harper's Ferry since its es- tablishment more than one-half. Wilmer Benjamin, therdeputy for Potomac Council, took charge of the good of the order, and speeches were made by Sov; Chief Andrews, Past Sovereign Chief Weed, Vice Sovereign Chief Mullin, Sovereign Sec- retary Young, Sovereign Treasurer John Humphrey, and by Deputy Sovereign Chiefs I. J. Hayre, C. B. Alien and D. F. Brown, and also by Messrs. Brackett, Upright, Wentzell and others. Prof. John Kirby sang and played the violin in a manner that delighted all. An enjoyable feature of the evening's entertainment was the contri- butions by Centennial Council Glee Club, composed of A. M. Williams, H. K. W. Pat- terson, Charles’ Steele. The evening was an enjoyable one, and will be long remem- bered by the “stiff cold water :aen” whe Participated in this visitation, THE COURTS, Equity Court, No. 1, Judge Cox.—Bi agt.
