POVERTY AND SIN TO CEASE
The largest afternoon audience of j
ue campaign bo far, heard mny
Qnnita trastfirrfav nrAnch on "The
uuuun j . v - - - -
Second Coming of Christ." the same
sermon being repeated In the even
ing. It is a subject, it is asserted, that
many ministers avoid, and the Bible
facts that the evangelist stated held
the audience in rapt attention.
"The world will wake up some
morning and find all the Christians
gone," Mr. Sunday asserted at the aft
ernoon meeting. "Christ at His sec
ond coming, will catch them all up to
KIui in the air. But there will be
inauy church members left on earth
and many an orthodox minister, be
cause they are not real members of
the spiritual church." j
' The time of the second coming Is not
known. Mr. Sunday quoted scripture,
l "Of that day knoweth no man, neither
" the Son." Then he asked, "llow does old
Russell know thenT"
Hy traced events following this second
Coming a prophesied In the Blble.

After that Christ will return toearth with
Ills saints for the millennial reign of 1.000
years. He will establish His kingdom In
Jerusalem. Thither will come also anti
christ and will deceive the people.
"The millenalum will be a grand period.
Our bodies won't grow old or tired or dis
eased and we will have faculties to enjoy
a thousand-fold more. Poverty, war, pes
tilence and sin will be unknown.
"At, Christ's second coming the dead la
Christ will be raised and wUl be caught
up to Him In the air along with those
still living. Many will see Christ without
first tasting death. . It makes no differ
ence te me whether I see death first or
not. 'I know I shall. see Him.
"Those who are members of the body of
Christ shall reign with Him through the
mlllenlum. I don't know. where I'll reign,
nor what Job God's going to give me.
But I am coming back to Omaha then
and I'm going to' look right at this lot
where the tabernacle stands and live over
those days once more."

Mr. Sunday referred to the belief ex

serted that the world Is no better than
It was and that the. superabundance of
evil la fulfilling prophesy. The mlllenlum
will not bring Christ, he said, but the
coming of Christ will mark the dawn of
I the mlllenlum as the coming of the sun
marks the dawning of day.
Mr. Sunday named many signs of the
times that indicate that the day of
Christ's second coming Is not far off.
-Among these, he said, is the radical
tendency to depart from Christian faith
and subscribe to various false doctrines.
'Also, the return already of many Jews to
Jerusalem. "Many of the metal parts for
the rebuilding of the temple at Jerusaleum
are already on the ground," he asserted.
Emphasising the Importance of the sec-
- ond coming Mr. Sunday asserted that It
Is mentioned 382 times in the New Testa
ment. Paul mentions it more than fifty

"Billy" -Sunday preached Christ
tianity, defended his methods and
hurled defiance at his critics at a
noon luncheon at the Commercial
club, at. which he was the guest of
honor. Four hundred business men
were present. Before Sunday talked
Homer ' Rodeheaver, choir leader,
taught them to sing the chorus of
"Brighten the Corner Where You
Are."
Although O. W. Wattles, who Intro
duced Mr. Sunday, referred indirectly to
the report that Mr. Sunday hd been
expected to make a "neutral" speech at
the luncheon, it was said by officials of
the club, later, that no desire to prevent
Mr. Sunday from talking religion hud
existed.
Worthy to He Heard.
Mr. Wattles said: "This man Is worthy
to be heard even by the commercial men
of Omaha. Suppose an ambassador from
another nation was here, to bring a
message. We wouldn't think of asking

Wireless Talk from
New York to Japan
is Now Possible
NEW YORK, Oct. . 1. Wireless tele
phone conversation between New York
and Yokohama, Japan, now Is possible
in the opinion of Bancroft Oherardl, en
gineer of the local plant of the American
Telephone and Telegraph company, who
added that he believed it possible to
peak around the world by this method.
Mr. Gherardl said this means that the
leading capitals of Europe and probably
Rio Ie Janeiro in South America, will
be brought within talking distance ' of
New York. ,
"This would be accomplished," he said,
"by a series of wire and wireless con
nections . wherever possible and wlrelfs
across the gaps. . In spite of the rapidity
of the transmission of electrical waves,
the delay for such a distance would be
appreciable, so that ttva speaker's voice
would return to him lagging, like an
echo. We have made testa of this phe

German Paper Says

Great Importance
AMSTERDAM, tVla London). Oct. 1.
Of the fighting on the western front, the
Lokal Anseiger says:
"It cannot b denied that the new of
fensive of the enemy is of the greatest
Importance. The enemy obviously is
making repeated efforts to gain at least
a decisive success. How long he will be
able to maintain his efforts is uncer
tain, but we must expect that the heavy
fighting will continue."
The Vossische Ze tung says:
"The severe fighting has reached the
sixth day without slackening..
"Ia view of the bitterness and Inde
fatigable severity at the dally repeated I
attack we must come to the conclusion
that these offensives surpass all previous
operations of the pal. It is methodical
and a careful preparation wh.ch can on'y
be explained by a firm determination 1"

CONGRESSMAN ; SLOAN j SPEAKS
The farmers WHhe National Faeev
Congress want woman suffrage, j ;
They got right tip in meeting and
said so at the Hotel Rome this morn
ing. Charlie Wooster of Silver
Creek was against the resolution, but
it pasaed, anyway. Wooster. declared
he would not say whether he was
for or against woman suffrage, but
that the subject was not a proper one
for the farm congress to consider.
"I thank the women are a very vital
psrt of farm life," said George P. Hoy,
a confirmed bachelor, who has farmed In
single blessedness for thirty years.
Nevertheless, the bachelor'e comment
was sufficiently pointed to carry the
resolution, and. woman suffrage carried
by a substantial majority.
Wnnt I'oatal Pimpress.
In further resolutions, the congress re
affirmed its stand on temperance, on
the restriction of Immigration, and Its
stand for the postallzatlon of the tele
phone and telegraph lines. It advocated
that the parcel poat service should be
extended to cover full express service.
The congress reaffirmed its stand for
good roads, and took a etand for a fed
eral Investigation of the cont of pro
ducing the more common farm products.
A resolution to oppose the reopening
of the western freight rase by the rail
roads was adopted, although ,S. Arlon
Lwls. who farms something like over
three-fourths of an acre of rraund at
Dundee, opposed . It. . Jewis. said he be
lieved In letting anyone reopen a casa
when they wanted to, and the railroads
had been auused long enough. "The rail
roads have en the goat for the middle
man for a long time," he said, "and I
don't propose to stand for it any longer."
I'avnr Ilnral Credits. .
The congress adopted a resolution
favoring an adequate system of rural
credits. It adopted a resolution urging
the various states to pass laws controll
ing the lease on land. In view of the
fact that one-half the farmers are ten
ant farmers. ....
Another resolution called for the insti
tution of a federal farm -woman's bureau
at Washington.

resolution seeking to put. the farmers on
record against the European war loan,

"For Instance, arsenuretted hydrogen

LONDON. Oct. I. It Is officially an

course of action between the two allied

NEW YORK. Oct. l.-The banking
house of Kuhn, Lneb A Co., will not help
float the 1500,X.0i4 credit loan to Great
Britain and France, because It has been
unable to obtain assurances that Russia
will not be benefited thereby, Jacob ii.
HcHff, senior member ef the firm, so as
serted today In the first formal statement
he has Issued on the subject.
The attitude of Kuhn, Loeb A Co., has
been a matter of speculation ever slm'e
negotiations looking toward the flotation
of the loan were begun. It has been re
ported that certain members of the firm
would subscribe to the loan as Individ
uals. This report la not discussed in Mr.
Bclilff's statement, but It Is made clear
that the firm will not participate as such.
The decision of Kuhn, Ixeb & Co., not
to participate eliminates from the lht of
possible underwriters a financial institu
tion which is second in Importance In
this country only to J. P. Morgan A Co.
It haa been reported without denial, how
ever, that Otto Kahn and Mortimer L

forces In succession to Grand Duke Nicho
las It was reported from Berlin that the
actual control of the army had been
placed In the experienced hands of Gen
eral Kuropatkin and General Polivanoff,
ministers of war.
If the report from ePtrograd regarding
General Kuropatkin Is true It means a
somewhat remarkable reversal of public
opinion In Russia regarding a military
leader who was disgraced because of the
failure of Russian amis In the war with
Japan.
