LOUIS, Feb. 18.—Official an- nouncement that the union of the | Presbyterian and Cumberland Presby- | | terian churches had been effected after | the labors of the committees represent- | ing the two churches for the past two | days was made to-night at a banquet | tendered the members of the two com- mittees by the Presbyterian Social Union of St. Louis. The basis of the union was not given out, but will be { to-morrow after a joint conference of | the two committees, in which will be perfected the verbal formation of the | agreement which consummates the union. To-morrow the two committees will hold a joint conference and !-)l‘mallyl | draw up the basis of union. | One of the most prominent church-| men vresent said that all matters per-| | taining to the consolidation of the two | | churches had been amicably arranged | and the only question remaining deals | | particularly with the phraseolog$¥ of certain prescribed forms. { “1 may say that the sessions have | been most harmonious and the subf ‘l‘,Umm“l?eS really had very little to do after the general committees had fin-| ished their labors,” said the informant, | who refused to have his name made public. “Of course we are all proud | of the results accomplished. It means | a greater, better, more prosperous union | of the two large Presbyterian denom- inations, and we will have a fraternal | banquet in celebration of the event.” | The Presbyterian church has 61 ministers, churches and 1,024,196 | communicants in the United States. { The Cumberland Presbyterian church { has 1595 white and 450 colored minis- ter: 944 white and 400 colored | churches and 1844 white and ,000 | colored communicants. What disposi- tion to make of the colored contingent | has been one of the principal questions | to be settled by the joint committee, but it is understood a basis.of agree- Fment has been reached. The principal | Presbyterian denominations not in- cluded in the merger are the Southern | Presbyterian church, with 230,655 mem- | bers, nd the United Presbyterian Church, with 117,232 member: | —————— | CAPTAIN HARTS' MONEY | GOES A-GLIMMERING i Will Be Tiluminated National Treasury With the ster of His Gold Paid for Smuggling.

The first definite estimate they were able to make on totals was through a dispatch from Albany, printed to-day giving the losses of companies doing business in New York, reported offic ly by them to the insurance commis- L sioner of New York. This list included sixty-eight of the largest American and foreign companies and the total of losses reported by them officially is a little over $16,500,000. Taking these official figures as a basis and addir the approximated figures of the com- panies authorized to do business in Maryiand but not in New York, insur- ance men say they cannot see how the total insurance loss will exceed 3$35.- 000,000. The authorities here report that un- employed persons, particularly me- chanies, are flocking from other parts of the country to this city by hundreds and indications are that the volume will steadily increase from day to da Those who have arrived say they ca because they were informed that there is a demand for workmen here, and finding nothing to do and being without money many of them have already ai plied for transportation back to their homes. The City Charitles Department and the Bureau of Industrial Statisties have asked that a warning be sent out that there is only enough work to give em- ployment to Baltimore workmen and that the home workers will be awarded the preference in every instance. stttz oo e BALTIMORE FIRE VICTIMS ARE FURNISHED WITH WORK Government Printer .Gives Employ- ment to Compositors, Pressmen, Pressfeeders and Bookbinders.
