TALMAGE Many Friends Ca'l at | Home That Shelters the Dead. WASHINGTON, April 13.—Arrange- ments were completed to-day for the funeral services over the remains of thie Rev. T. De Witt Talmage. The funeral will take place at 4 o'clock Tuesday aft- ernocon from the Church of the Cove- nant. The services will be very simple. There will be no funeral sermon, but short addresses concerning the life and works of Dr. Talmage will be made. Dr. 7. S. Hamlin, the pastor of the church, and Dr. Thomas Chalmers Eaton of the Eastern Presbyterian Church .of Washington will both assist in the ser- vices. Dr. Samuel J.- Niccols of St Louis, a life-long_ friend, will make an address, and Dr. E. P. Tervne of New Jersey, Dr. Howard Suydam of Relb- beck, N. H., and Dr. James Demarest of Brooklyn, all school ~friends of the deceased, have been asked to as- sist. At 9 o'clock Wednesday morning the interment will take place in the family lot at Greenwood Cemetery, Brooklyn. Silent tribute to the memory of ~ Dr. Talmage was paid by thousands of people to-day, who walked past the residence on Massachusetts avenue, where the visit of death was evidenced by a clus- ter of viclets with a streamer of biack hkanging at the right of the entrance. Many “ thtimate: friemds;” including the pastors of most, of the Presbyterian churches of the city, were among those who called. Messages of sympathy from nearly every State in the Union and from England, Russia and’ other European countries came to the family during the day. LONDON, April 14—The papers this morning print long eulogistic. obituary. articles on the late T. De Witt Talmaga, They all speak of him as ranking with Spurgeon. Voicing the general feeling, the Daily Chronicle says: ‘““The influence he exercised in the religious world was tre- mendous, and it is with deep’regret that we record the final hushing of his voice. It was néver raised but in the cause of humanity.” Thousands of Immigrants Arrive. NEW YORK, April 18—Immigrants to European ports.

NEW - YORK, April 13.—Dr. M. Neu- staeder of this city to-day received a ca- blegram from Vienna giving notice of the release from prison of the Schnur family ten members of which have been confined near there for some time on the charge | of having murdered Schulim Schnur. The story of the charge, as told by the doc- tor, is that the young man supposed to have been murdered was about to become a Christian convert and to marry a Chris- tian girl. notwithstanding that he.came from a well-known Jewish family of Dom- row, Galicia. . His parents, to avold: the consequences of his proposed change of | faith, sent him to a brolger in this un- | try, and after bis dlsappeatanchwers ao- cused by the Christian peasants of the neighborhood with having murdered him. | They were arrested and taken to jfail in chains.

ANILA April 13.—Major Lyttle- ton W. T. Waller of the Marine Corps, tried by court-ma: 1 on the charge of killing' na ot the island of Samar without trial, has been acquitted. The ccurt stood eleven to two for acquittal. The identity of the officers who voted to convict Major Waller was not disclosed. Major Waller's friends, who crowded the court room-during the trial, are jubilant. Three officers say that if he had been punished for the execution of the men who betrayed .hjm during his terrible journey across Samsar there would have followed an era of:treachery among the matives that would have greatly delayed the work of pacifying. the islands. Major Waller in his defense urged that he had acted under orders of General Smith, who, he said, had told him to kill and burn and directed him to convert Samar, a hotbed of Insurrection, into a wilderness, and had further adyised him that it was no time to, take prisoners, and that the further he carried destruc- tion the better pleased the general would be. Major Waller said General Smith had told him to kill all over 10 years old. In his summing up_against Major Wal- ler, Judge Advocate Kingsbury contended that Major Waller was under military, not martial. law in Samar. The men shat, he said, had done nothing deserving of such punishment. He blamed Waller for the misfortunes and hardships of the ma- rines and the fatal march and flatly ac- cused him of abandoning ten helpless comrades, ‘‘whose bones are now bleach- ing on the banks of the Lenang.” to die of hunger. The judge advocate said the prisoners ‘were lined up for a raffle of death at the sole will of Private Davis. -In closing he said Waller listened to the dictates of ambition instead of duty, and that the evidence disclosed faithfulness and not treachery on the part of the natives who were shot by his order. Tt took the court-martial only a haif- hour to reach its verdict of acquittal. WANT TROOPS TO STAY. Merchants of Lagoncy Sénd Petition to General Chaffee.

His Appointment Results in Vexatious and Annoying Misunderstanding. ST. PETERSBURG, April 13.—Consul Campbell has gone to the United States, | declaring he intends to place his resig- | nation in the hands of Secretary of State Hay. This brings to an end the misun- which have lasted six months. On the death of Joseph Rawitz, for many years American Consul at War- saw, his nephew, Vladislaw Rawitz, the surviving head of the Rawitz banking house, signified his desire to succeed to the Warsaw consulship. W. !”». Hollo- way, the United Sttes Consul General at St. Petersburg, with tne assent of Charlemagne ‘lower, the American Em- bassador to Russia, recommended Lhat Viadislaw Rawitz be given this post, say- ing_that the oifice had been excellentiy managed by Josepa Rawitz, and that the Rawitzs enjoyed an excellent reputa- ticn. emiah Curtin, formerly secretary of n;‘aervnued States Embassy here, caused the first complication by requesting that Herr Wolff, the publisher os S\ellklf— wick's works, be appointed Consul at Warsaw. H. H. D. Pierce, the Third As- sistant Secretary of State, wrote Hollo- v-av and asked him if he insisted on his recommendation. Holloway did_ insist upon _the appointing of Vladislaw Rawitz, and Tower undertook discreetly to sound the Russian Government regarding the acceptability of that gentleman. This in- quiry. by some mistake, caused the is- suance of an exequatcur for Rawitz. As the consular position at Warsaw is highly esteemed, Rawitz immediately received congratulatory visits from the local offi- cers and the other Conmsuls. At this stage of the proceedings Rawitz became great- 1y embarrassed, a3 etiquette required that his first visit be pald the Governor Gen- eral, and this was impossible without merican papers. A\Villlan’l I{’Lpgsbl)rne. United States Con- sul General in London, here intervened bv recommending the appointment of Campbell, an American dentist in Lon- don, who formerly lived in Warsaw. | Rawitz became very much perturbed by newspaper statements that Campbell had been appointed on the ground of his American citizenship. He made persis- tent but ineffectual attempts to get Ho loway and Tower further to support his cause. In the meantime a storm had gathered over Campbell's head. The consular clerk at Warsaw, voicing the alleged widespread objection of the inhabitants | of that city to the American, wrote Gen- eral Holloway that Campbell could not anticipate an exequateur, as his real | name was Finkeistein, and he was Lorn in Lemberg. The consular clerk further charged that Campbell had given differ- ent birthplaces in his application for passports, and that local soclety was him because of his elopement with an heiress of Warsaw. Campbell came here and ridiculed these chaiges, asserted that he was a Christian, that he was born in Montreal, Canada; that he was a natiralized American citizen, and formerly a dentist in Chicago. He declared that his mother-in-law was re- sponsible for the charges against him, which she brought at the desire of with- holding 100,000 rubles due his wife frowm the paternal estate. Consul General Hol- loway was sifting this matter when he was informed that Campbell had aban- doned the fight.
