THE PROTESTANT ECUMENICAL, The World’s Evangelical Alli- ance Conference. How ItDidiot Come Off Yesterday—1he Foreign ‘Their Views and Impressions—Too Much “Doctor” ~America Seen Through English Clerical Spectacles, ‘rhe Protestant Ecumenical Conncil, or, a8 tt was eriginalty dubbed, the Evangelical Alliance of the ‘World, did not meet yesterday, as it was to have Gone, for certain events which did not “cast their shadows before’ in time to give due warning to all ‘the foreign delegates to stay at home where they Delonged, put an effectual stopper upon the idea some weeks ago. However, there was ® large meeting yesterday at the Young Men’s Christian Association building in ‘Twenty-third street of all, or nearly all, the clergymen, foreign and otherwise, who were in town, and who were to have been delegates to the Conncil. It waa, #0 to speak, rather an informal formal amair, for everybody treated everybody else as though each Individual Nad turned up out of his own “parish” merely to shake hands with the other and ask Mm how he, himself, was, and héw all his family were, and to express to each other, after the manner, but not the spiritual fervor, of Rip Van Winkle, what a world of pleasure it wonid give everybody to know that everybody else would “live long and prosper.” Tue formality of ‘the thing was not much, but still it was formality, and consisted in the selection of William E. Dodge a6 chairman, to whom every minister was individu- ally introduced. As each one’s name was called by the secretary the chairmun shook hands with him ‘a8 he came up to the platform. White the first baker’s dozen were being intro- duced Mr. Dodge seemed in no way at a loss for words of compliment and welcome to each, but as Wo dozens grew into the thirties the greeting for- mality became too much for him, and he had tocon- tent himself and the ministers with a silent shake of the hands. WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN, The secretary opened the business, like proceed. Ings by stating that had the Council not been post -poned upwards of 300 delegates would have come from Great Britain alone, and at least 100 from the Continent of Europe, He then pre- sented a series of resolutions, which were adopted, welcoming all the foreign delegates who were present to America, and expressing the reget of the native clergymen that vhe Council had to be post. poned. He then made a few remarks, tn which he ae the belief that the postponement would reound to the greater good of the Council when it id meet, and thal ie hoped it would meet during the ensuing year, INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO SPEAK, A letter was then read from Rev. Dr. MvCosh, of Princeton, and a telegram from George H. Staart, of Fhiladelphia, in which the writers expressed thelr regrets that they could not be present at the meeting. ey bade the ueiegates to “speak hope- fully and courageously,” and to show no hesitancy % thelr words or acts, A letter Was also read from Mr. Schenck, of Brooklyn, inviting the delegates to attend h 6 church Sunday after next aud take part m the services, THE FEEBLENRSS OF WorDs. Mr. Doncs then relerred to the resolutions which had been presented and adopted. They wer sald, but avery feeble expression of the real feelings of the American c'eigymen toward their foregn brethren. Words could not express them. ‘The names of the promineat men who had not come, which had been read by the sceretary, were of themselves evidence of gwhat the Council would have beep had nothing occurred to interfere with its Sitting, Stil, the providence of God was in it all, Me beileved, and he donbted not but that when it did meet ib Would be productive of great fruits, THE POPE NOL FORGOTTEN, Profersor REVEL, of Florence, was the next speaker. He referred to the downfall of Kome and considered it the working of God on behalf of the cause of the Bible, What human wisaom as dis- Played by diplomatists failed to do the inysterious ways of Providence had accomplished without a struggle in which battles were fought or cities de- vastated. The only hope of Italy, he concluded, ‘was in the Gospel, and now the way was open for 115. thee spread over the entire land, WHAT AN ENGLISHMAN TRINKS OF AMERICA, Rev. Mr. ANGus, of London, thought he knew something of America before he came here. He had seen and studied ita maps, and believed he knew what its population and resources were; but he hal travelled over ten thousand miles through the Union since his arrival here, and the result was that be had came Ww the conclusion tiat he bad known up to that time precious little about the country. He did not kuow which feeling filled hig mind the most concerning Ameri terror, admiration or love, The hope of its futare greatness was in the propa- gation of the Gospel and the reunion of all Christian denommations in oue body to serve one God aud common Father. DESIRES AND REGRETS. The Rev. JaAMFS DAVIS, of England, and the vene- rable Mr. Ket. ex, olDemerara, then spoke of the desire they had to attend the Council and the regret they felt at its postponement, A LITTLE MORE ABOUT AMERICA, ‘The Rev. Mr. ADRIAN, of London, on being Intro- G@uced as “doctor” denied the softimpeachment. He remarked that he was no doctor, but that since he had come to America he had been so “doctored” wherever he had gone that it was a wonder that le Was living at al), (Laughter.) He nad, he sald, from boyhood longed to see America, and during the eight weeks he had been here he had travelled over it from the Atlantic to the Pacific. ‘Tuey all remem- bered hearing of twelve spies that had been sent into a certain country to fod out all its strength and weakness, He and lus foreign brethren who had come to America were not sptes, but good brethren ; but they bad come for # Food pases, and bi learned a great deal. He and Dr, Angus were Caleb and Joshua, and when they returned to Engiand they would te!l about all they haa seen to their con- gregations. London was @ great place, butit did Bot seem like New York 1n the matter of its church worship. London had too much of external light, and What was wauled Was some “naptism of the spirit.’” He had been to ihe Fulton street prayer meeting, and bed been greatly edifled. They had nothing in England to conipare, of course excluding the great cathedrals, to the churches he had seen in this city, am Philadelphia and other great towns, He con- ciuded by saying that it was the province of the Saxon race to improve the wiiole world, Remarks were then made by Mr. Henry Henly, of London, a great friend of the sunday ‘schools, and Rev. Mr. Edwards, of the same piace, after which the mecug adjourned. & PRAVERY L ANNIVARSARY, Commemoration of the First Fulton street Prayer Meeting.

Kate Marsh, an inteilige genteel looking lttle girl, Whose case has attracted a great deal of atten- tion, was placed at the bar. She pleaded guilty last Aprii to being accessory to the crime of rape, and was sent by Judge Bediord to a reformatory ins tlou. Strenuous eforts were pat forth by her mother 1 zh counsel for her release, which were success- tml. Counsel stated yesterday that the little girl was duduced to plead guilty by terror, and wished to be permitted now to withdraw that plea and have the matter investigated by 4 jury; that he (counsel) was aware his Honor iad been told that the girl was a young prostitute and was employed by her mother to “rope in” men to her house of iil-repute, while, on the other hand, he had certii¢ates trom “her da, and Sunday school teachers that she was a good girl. No harm would resuit from granting his motion, for it had got to be a common remark about the streets that guiity men do not get away from this court any more. Dir. Tweed gave & clear statement of the case and opposed its reopening mainly because the complain- aut could not be tonnd, Judge Bedliord ordered that the witnesses on both sides be summoued for Monday, at which time he would examine them thoroughly and make a final disposition of the girl.

Using His ence to Shield a Criminal—“Charley Adams,” the Bauk Robber, Trylog to Get Free—Dintrict Attorney Davis Wound Kound His Finger. ‘The authorities of the State of Maine, as well as all the oMicers of the United States consclentiously en- Gaged in bringing violators of the law to punish- ment, are considerably exercised over the now well known fact that District Attorney Davis 1s actively engaged in endeavoring to procure the release from jatl—where he 1s at present confined on the charge of bank robbery—of “Charley Adams,” alias John A. Stevens, allas Langdon, The robbery perpetrated by Adams and his gang upon the Lime Rock Bank of Rockiand is of too recent a date to require any rehearsal. The robbery was shrewdly planned and boldiy executed. A iarge amount of money and bonds were taken, for which Adams and several of his fellows in criwe were arrested, since which time they have been conflued in jail at Beliast, Me., awalting their trial. Among the most prominent of his many villanons transactions may be meutioned the daring and suc- cessful robbery of the Concord Bank, at Concord, ase.; the Amenta Bank, in Dutchess county, N. 3 the Wolfboro Bank, at Wolfboro, N. H., and a host of other like nefarious depredations. But jus- ce seems to have at last overtaken him, and ‘tie reward of bis long career of crime is about to be meted out to him. There are those, however, who have undertaken to procure his release through the instrumentailly of the government, and are actively engaged in lea to gain the ear and obtain the aut of the United State Treasury ontctals to etfect their object. ‘The man so assiduously laboring on behalf of Adams is William P. Wood, ex-Chief of the United States dete , back by the ex-Solicitor of the Tre Jordan, Jordan, however, has littie itlucice in government circles in Washington, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Solicitor of the Treasury boing opposed to compounding felony in the manner de sired by Mr. Wood, the robber Adams and his un- scrapulous friends. Yet, notwithstanding the opp sition of the Treasury officials, it 13 quite possible that Wood may escape the conseque of is vil- Janous transactions, His discharge 18 sought by ex-Chief Wood on novel groans, When, tn 186° large number of seven-thirty bonds the Treasury Department, Wood captured a plate which he said must have been the one from which the seven-thirtics bad*been printed; but the plate was #0 badly battered that no trace of the engraver could be found, The discovery of the plate led the authorities of the Treasury Department to declare spurious the seven-thirties which had been stolen. But it is said that those found corresponded in the numbers and series with the issue recorded on the books of the Department. A reward of $15,000 was offered for the discovery of the “counterfeit, plate,” but it ts not known whether it was paid. Meantime a number of bankers of this city who had received the seven-thirties, and who knew them to be genuine, began suits m the United States Court agamst the government to recover $70,000, the amount of thelr aggregate loss, and the cases are yet to be tried, Ex-Chief Wood now says that the hororions burgiar Charley Adams, alias Langdon Moore, can swear that the plate was the one from which tie seven-thirties were ‘‘struck;” that the bonds were spurious, and that he can save the government the amount for which it is sued if he 18 brought from the Maine State Prison to this city and pardoned {or hus late crimes, ‘There are facts in this case which deserve meu. tion and call for oMcial inquiry. When A trends failed tn their application to the Secreta) the Treasury and the Solicitor of the Treasury ap- lication was made to District Attoraey Davis. Whatever influences were brought to bear tu that direction, certain itis that Mr. Davis wrote to the authorities of the State of Maine to postpone the trial of Adams in order that he might be @ witness for the goverument in the case of the $70,000 sult. Should Mr. Davis be suc- cessful in obtaining Adams’ release from the State Prison of Maine the rescue of that notorious robber from his merited fate would be an easy matter. That such is the intention of the District Attorney, who, of course, understands his position, aud of the friends of the notorious robber Adams, the boastful declarations of ex-Chief of United States Detectives Wood are @ suiicient guarantee. A few days will decide whether the United States authorities will consent to compound a felony for $70,008 without the chance of bringing any of the parties to the several robberies of Adams to justice, or whether the administration of justice in the federal departments 48 not corrupt. THE BILLIARD CHAMPIONSHIP. Dead Lock Decided at Lnst—Dion vs. Rudolphe—Te the Frenchu Playing Car- roms with Cannon Balls ¢ To-day Joseph Dion will formally claim the title of champion player of the four-ball carrom game, by virtue of Rudolphe’s default. The absent player has now been accorded a grace of nearly, sixty day ithaving been Dion's privilege to compe) hi play as early as the 51st of July last. It 1s assumed in Rudolphe’s behalf that he entered the French amy and has been killed. The proba- bilities are altogether against the assumption.

Dion has, however, heard nothing from him except indirectly, and that was to the effect that after having, presumptively, been in France, he was in London early in August, and woud start for this country in a few days. position is now this:—Assuming that Rudolphe ts dead, he will not claim the forfeit mouey, which will reuain u Rudolphie, if alive, cannot get it, because application for it on his part would conclusively show that, according to sporting law, Dion had ail along been entitied to it; and the Jatier would then at once demand it, uniess Rudoiphe could satisfactorily explain why he jatied to make known Dis whereapouls and circumstances. As to the championship question between them, Dion will always stand ready, health permitting, to play bim, etther in public or private, within a week trom signing articles, on the same terins as the now void, and tn three months’ time, at any other game whatsoever, The unselfishness of this eitire position will be apparent even (o those unfamullar with the technology of billiards and general sporting pra tice.y Regarding the utle of champion, Dion’s claims to it will end almost a soon ag his right to claim it has been acknowledged. At the expiration of sixty days, if neither Rudolphe nor any other player should challenge him, he will resign the title, on condition that it be contended for iu @ series of games between. the leading experts, himself among the number, The whereabouts of the diamond cue emblematic of the champlonship Is unknown; so it ts not in Dion's power to resign that.
