The Florence Crittenton nursery tea, given yesterday afternoon by the ladies of the home r&nagement committee, at 218 3d street northwest, was most enjoyable, and a success financially. The cheery par- lors and refreshment room, as well as the dormitories, nursery room’ and halls, are made home-like by carpets, pictures, etc. The decorated china and the silver loaned by Mr. Jarvis, the treasurer of the board of managers, made the tea table look most inviting, and it was most generously patronized. Ladies from various churches assisted in the reception. All the afternoon the street was lined with the carriages of the callers. Among those who welcomed the guests were Mrs. E. K, Fleck, the matron; Mrs. La Fetra, Mrs. Catlin, Mrs. Knowles, Mrs. 8. M. Newman, Mrs. Alfred Wood, Miss Mary Hector, Mrs, Trotter and Mrs. Sumpter. The ladies of the First Con- gregational Church voted to furnish a large front room on the third floor, adjoining the nursery, and to give a tea at the mission at no distant day, when their new room shall be dedicated to the rescue of homeless girls. Miss Flora Snyder gaye some reci- tations, Mrs. C. L. Roach offered the even- ing prayer. The treasury was well replen- ished by cash contributions and the pro- ceeds of the tea. ——_———_ Does Not Expect a Charge Here. Rev. Henry C.

INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION Washington to Take Part in the Movement Already Begun. National Conference to Be Held “in This City in April — The Proposed Plan. An interesting meeting was held yester- day at the residence of Hon. Gardiner G. Hubbard, 1328 Connecticut avenue, of the committee appointed lately to co-operate with similar committees in other cities in furtherance of the plan for a permanent treaty of arbitration between Great Britain and the United States. This plan, inaugurated by members of the New York chamber of commerce, has met with much faver. Committees have been organized in Chicago and New York, and it {s proposed to take like action in Boston and Philadelphia, and elsewhere, as soon as possible. Eventually it is hoped the system of arbitration proposed may be ex- tended to all the civilized nations, as well as Great Britain. Those Present at Yesterday's Meeting. The first meeting of the local committee was held last Friday at the call of the chairman, Mr. Hubbard, for the purpose of listening to an exposition of vhe project from Dr. Chamberlin of the New York committee. At yesterday’s meeting there were present, besides the chairman, Col. J. W. Foster, Mr. John A. Kasson, Mr. C. 8. Noyes, Dr. Busey, Dr. Teunis 5. Hamlin, Mr.Joln Joy Edson, Prof. S. P. Langley, Dr. Greene, Mr, S. W. Woodward, Col. H. F. Plount, Judge Peelle, Mr. Boardman, Mr. Thomas Nelson Page, Mr. John Hay, Mr. Beriah Wilkins, Justice Cole, Bishop Hurst, Admiral Walker, Mr. J. B. Wight and Mr. C. J. Bell, secretary. - These gentlemen, with others who will be Invited to serve, will constitute a commit- tee of twenty-five. Chief Justice Fuller, Commissioner Truesdell and Dr. Mackay Smith will, it is expected, take a place on the committee. There was an interesting general discus- sion of the mode of procedure and the scope of the plan of arbitration, in which men of the wide experience in diplomatic affairs of Mr. Foster and Mr. Kasson were able to make many valuable suggestions. A Conference in April. It is proposed to have a conference in this city in April, at which delegates from each of the states and territories, independent of party or creed, will be present. Dr. Cham- berlin has been in consultation with mem- bers of Congress during his stay, with a view of ascertaining the most available men for delegates in each section. He spoke of having received very hearty encouragement from members of Congress whom he had met. The arrangements will be in charge of ex- ecutive committees of five from each local committee, and at the conference the whole course of action will be settled upon. The meeting yesterday was most satisfac- tory in showing that the co-operative move- ment for general arbitration will receive a very hearty and influential backing in the city of Washington. Progress of the Movement. In the course of the meeting Dr. Cham- berlin gave an intelligent exposition of the plan and progress of the movement. He said in this connection: The spontan- cous, independent movements in Chicago, Philadelphia, Baliimore, New York and other places, in the interests of a perma- nent provision for some wise methods of arbitration between the United States and Great Britain, have now become one en- thusiastic movement in favor of a national conference. The purpose of the confer- €nce is both patriotic and philanthropic. It is clearly understood that there are questions, such as those of national sov- ereignty and the integrity of the national domain, ae no State will consent to ar- bitrate, but for the great class of disa- greements Which are debatable, and which the us: jmethcds of diplomacy fail to adjust, there well may be a resort to an arbitracing’ triluinal, instead cf the waste and bitterness of war. It would’ appear, nioreover, that a noble step in the advance of civilization would he taken, should there be, between the two t nations whicn are akin in language, rudence, lez ul methods, and essential of right, a treaty of arbitration, des- ng the class of issues to be referred, and determining certain methods of pro- cedure in constituting and convening the tribunal, as well as certain. essential rules governing tho presentation of evidence. There would thus be a presumption, and practical facility, favorable to arbitration, such as do not now exist, and have not heretofore existed. The whole effect would certainly be on the side of peace with honor and justice with good will. It is not too much to say that such a treaty, or convention, bet n this coun- try and Great Britan would tend toward the adoption of international arbitration throughout the civilized worid. THE A Pretty Scene at Washington Division's Bazaar. Odd Feliows’ Hall presented a pretty scene last night at the opening of the ba- zaar of Washington Division, No. 1, Knights of Pythias. Booths were ar- ranged along the sides of the large hall, profusely decorated with flags and bunting and filled with articles useful and o: mental, which will be voted for by the friends of the various candidates. ‘the Pythian colors, red, yellow and blue, were tastefully festooned about the hall itself led with the national colors, which were also used in abundance.

There was a good-sized crowd present, and the managers are quite sanguine as to the re- sults of the venture. The executive com- mittee will settle up the accounts as early as possible. and it is thought that the amount of the profits will be announced next week. After the auction last evening, the floor was cleared for dancing. —— Judge Henry Reed of the court of com- mon pleas of Philadelphia died yesterday morning at the New York Hospital. DR. TOWNSEND'S SUCCESSOR Rev. Mr. Snyder to Be the Reotor of Incarnation. A Promotion for the Assistant at the Church of the Ascension— Sketches of the Men. Arrangements have been consummated within the past three days whereby ‘one of Washington's Protestant Episcopal churches will lose its rector and another church of the same denomination its assist: ant rector. The former is the Church of the Incarnation, Rev. Israel T. Townsend, 8. T. D., rector, and the latter the Church of the Ascension, Rey. William Tayloe Snyder, as- sistant rector. Dr. Townsend has contem- plated resigning for some time, and for that reason the vestry of Incarnation has been casting about for a successor to the doctor. About a month ago they thought they had one In the person of Rev. C. W. Bispham, but a hitch occurred, and Mr. Bispham ac- cepted instead the call to Trinity Church, New Haven. Since then they have made other efforts, and last evening both Dr. Townsend and Rey. Mr. Snyder confirmed the report to a Star reporter that they had succeeded. Mr. Snyder is appointed assist- ant rector of Incarnation, with the right of succession to the rectorship. This practi- cally means that he is to be the rector, as Dr. Townsend is not only contemplating ten- dering his resignation to the vestry, but has already made up his mind to do so. When it was known two or three months ago that Dr. Townsend thought of leaving reports were heard that the old trouble In the con- gregation, which resulted in a number of the members leaving two or three years ago, had come up in the shape of ancther split, but this is not true, as two reasons, entirely foreign to any such state of affairs, have led to the calling of a new rector. The first is that the doctor still feels very deeply the loss of his wife, less than three years ago, and the other is that, in consequence of his being a man well up in years, the church has somewhat dwindled in membership. and there is need of a young man at the helm. When the Change Will Occur. Dr. Townsend has not deiinitely stated when he will leave, but it is thought that in about two months froma now he will go to live with a daughter in Brooklyn. 1t is also uncertain when Mr. Snyder will er his connection with Ascension, but this fs expected to happen a week or so after Easier. The question bas been left for the decigion of Rev. Dr. John H. El- liott, rector Ascension, but he will hard- ly consent to part with Mr. Snyder, who is popular with both rector and congrega- tion, before the time mentioned. The retiring rector of Incarnation, from his long connectioa with the church end the part he has borne in its counstis, is a well- known figure in local church circles. He is a native of St. Johns, New Brunswick, but reccived his collexiate education at Columbia College, New York, and his theo- logical training at the General Theological Seminary in the same ci first parish was Grace Church, New York, where he stayed a few years, and then removed in succession to St. James Church, Danville, Conn.; Trinity Church, Jacksonville, ill.; St. Paul's Church, Peoria, NL, from ich place he came to Washington and the Incarnation twenty-one years ago. ‘The incoming rec- tor, Rev. William Tayloe Snyder, was born and raised in the District, where his fam- ily 1s well known, and received his edu- cation here. He studied law and practiced before the local bar for some time, but afterward concluded to take orders and re- ceived as his first position in the ministry. the assistant rectorate of St. John’s Church, Rev. Dr. George William Dous- las then being rector. “At St. John’s he had charge of St. Mary's Mission, since grown into a church, and was closely identified with work among the colored people. He went to Ascension in 1802, and has remained there ever since. The Church of the Incarnation is located on the corner of 12th and N streets. —.___ The Shakespeare Clu The Shakespeare Club was entertained Saturday evening by Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Spaulding at their residence.

Washington, Dr. Whitman, the president of Columbian University, Sunday went out to the boys’ reform school, and, taking charge of the afternoon devotional! exercises, he improved the occasion to tell to the 220 boys there why the memory of George Washington is honored. He said that each one could not be President—that for each one present to have a chance at the office would compel some to live 800 years, this not counting the contingency of any one having a second term; but that each boy in his place in life could pattern after the boy and the man Washington — always doing his duty bravely, cheerfully and unselfishly—and the result would be a noble, helpful manhood, which was more to be prized than any presidency. The exercises closed with ap- propriate songs and a benediction by Dr. Whitman. The audience of these unfortu- nate youths—many of them present through no wrongdoing of their own, but because of the misfortunes and neglect of parents— enjoyed the occasion to the full, as also did Dr. Whitman, whose cordial promise to come again and take charge of the Sunday services gave intense satisfaction to the officers and trustees of the school who were present from the city. Among those present from the city of the trustees were Messrs. Clay, Burchell, Thompson and Carpenter, Superintendent of Schools B. T. Janney and Superintend- ent Wilson of the Associated Charities, and Messrs. H. G. Jacobs, W. W. Dungan and 8S. W. Curriden. —_<.___ The District Government.

A pleasing and somewhat remarkable event came in conjunction with the last hours of Washington's birthday in the home of Frank and Ann Howard, living at 2822 Pennsylvania avenue. This was the birth of triplets, all of whom were lusty and good-looking boys. Dr. Appleby was the efficient and very much surprised phy- sician who officiated, it being, he says, the first case of triplets in his experience as a ractitioner. He was less disconcerted, owever, than was Mr. Howard, and ral- Ned to the emergency in excellent style. The newcomers were named in the order of their seniority, George Washington Howard, Francis Lafayette Howard and Grover Cleveland Howard. To the sorrow of Mr. and Mrs. Howard and their friends, the latter of the three died when he was but nine hours old. The surviving broth- ers and their mother are doing nicely. =a Beethoven, Wellington, Kings and queens innumerable, nearly all the minds that have chang« ed the course of affairs in the world for centuries, have been to Carlsbad for bodily aid.

Glass Workers Propose to Raise Mil- Hone for a Strike Fu: While but few workingmen in Washing- ton are directly interested in the results of @ meeting held during the past few days in Pittsburg, many labor leaders here are taking a decp interest in the matter, as they believe, they say, that many other crafts will eventually take similar action for their own protection. The gathering at Pittsburg was comnosed of delegates from the organized glass trades, aud resulted in the formation of @ formidable combination. Plans were adopted for an alliance be- tween the three great labor unions in the glass Industry, which will involve the wel- fare of 75,000 workingmen in the United States and Canada. A fund of several million dollars is to be raised by per cap- ita tax within the next few years by the American Flint_ Glass Workers’ Un Window Glass Workers’ Association an the Glass Bottle Blowers’ Association of the United States and Can; This fund will be used to support the members of the organizations named in every contest with the manufacturers’ combination which may arise in the fu- ture. The financial strength of all will be put at the back of any one of them which may become involved in strikes or lockouts. In addition the big defense funds which each union now has will be increased, and it is proposed to fight capl- tal with capital in case, in the opinion of the officers of the organization, a contlict becomes necessary. An eastern deicgate who was seen by @ Star reporter and who was returning to his home by way of Washington, said that the object of the alliance is not to rob «ach organization of its autonomy, but is an actual drefhund, which, in case of @ strike or trouble with the manu turer, will result in all the members being called on to contribute toward a fund to support the strikers. Considering the wages many of these men fe when working and the amount of money they pay into the strike funés annually it will make a formidabi amount of cash for capitalists to contend against. Many of the men in the Flint Glass Workers’ Union have in the two years paid as much as $200 @ year into the sirike fund. ‘i ‘The delegate said that he was not at Mb- erty to slate the amount of the proposed per capita tax at present, but admitted that assessments will be made regularly upon the membership of the unions. anced 3 $0,000 per month can, he sald, be rai easily among the glass workers. AND PENNSYLVANIA. McKINLEY A Harrisburg Man’s Explanation of the Quay Movement. To the Eiiitor of The Evening Star: It is amusing to read and hear of the reasons put forth by the friends of Gov. McKinley to accovnt for the launching of the Quay presidential boom. They say it is an effort to keep this state from pport- ing their candidate. The facts are that just after the election of 1894 there was some McKinley feeling in this state, probably stronger than for any other candidate, but It was not deep seated, and as soon as the merits of Speaker Reed began to be discussed he easily became the fevorite. That most of the leaders favora- ble to McKinley were arrayed with the “combine” forces against Quay in August of last year, and when that movement met its Waterlco the star,of McKinley in Penn- sylvania became extfhet; that at no time since has he had even the slightest pros- pect of securing more than a half dozen scattering dele; es; that there h: up to the present, been twenty dele: ected in this state and the first choice of all of them has been Reed, McKiniey being no better than the third or fourth choice of most of them; that at no time last August has there been any doubt among the republicans of Pennsylvania of Sena- tor Quay's ability to have a practically solid delegation to follow his lead at St. Louis. I» view of these facts It is necessary to lcok for some better reason for the Sena- ter’s candidacy than that it is necessary to secure control of a united delegation from this state. the friends of Mr. Reed have stronger reasons for objecting to the Quay candi- dacy than tho:e of Gov. McKinley, but “our Tom” has always seemed to act as if he thought that the republican party was £0 large that no one man in it could under- take to give the whole show alone, and he is not departing from that view’ in this contest. Although there may be some people labor- ing under the impression that the republi+ can nemination for the presidency has be- come the property of the states of Ohio and Indiana, @ search of the records will fail to show any such deed recorded. Why, the presidency is something that every American schoolboy, in every state in the Union, is taught to aspire to. It seems about time Jo teach Ohio and In- disra schooltoys that they must expect competitors in other states. We all want a chance either for ourselves or our sons, and it would greatly inconvenience some of us to meve either to Ohio or ludiana. It is but just to the latter siate to say she has had modesty thrust upon h year early in the contest, and I fancy are a grcat many people, even in Ohio, favorable to another object lesson being given to the schoolboys of their own state, JERE.
