Chicago, Nov. 9. The sixteenth an nual convention of the National Women's Christian Temperance union met here yesterday with four or five hundred delegates present from all parts of the country. The morning was devoted to the reading of the scriptures and prayer. The majority of the convention is strongly in favor of an alliance with tlie third parly, yet they cnunot conceal their onxiety as to the attitude of the minority who believe in non-partisan action. If the Iowa union withdraws the breach will be irreparable. Last year the national oSces claimed lC.OoO local unions with a membership of 200, 000. To-day the official reiort showed 7,000 local unions with a membership of 142, 1 KJ. Among the number which have withdrawn are such unions as Miuneapolis, Cleveland and Chester county, the latter comprising sixty unions. xriuch startling figures disturb the equanimity of the organization nud this evident disaffection has made a strong impression. The atteruoou session was devoted to the business of the union, the usual committees being appointed, aud re ports from tho executive committee, the treasurer, nnd other officers read. Miss Frances E. Willard, president of the society, delivered Iter annual ad dress to-night Iu beginning she said patriotism had always been a part of her religion, aud continued: "Yon mo now iu Chicago. The Cro nin murder trial is iu full blast. The national flag was hissed and the red flag of the communists applauded not fur from here but a few days ago. "The experiment of free government in our largo towns nud cities is a failure loudly confessed by tho meu them selves. Nor nro the reasons for this monumental catastrophe mysterious. America has become the dumping ground of Europeau cities; immigration has steadily deteriorated iu proportion na its quantity has grown. To-day we have hundreds of thousands of anarch ists among us. The multiplications of conventions, tho enormous accumula tions of capital, corporate combinations aud the octopus grip of trusts render our wage worker uneasy. Note the snllen look ou the grim faces in the mine and manufactory aud on the streets; read the labor organs of the da) nnd see if well-to-do Americans are not nsleep ou the edge of a volcano. Turning to politics Miss Willard said: "Let it never be forgotten Hint we who are here represent n nationalist move ment; that it is our special prerogative to note the political signs of promise along the national hoiizon, nnd yonder we see two great old war ships battering each other ou tho high seas of the pres idential campaign; we see that high tariff and free trade; the spoils of office, the glittering prizes of personal ambi tion engage them altogether, while into the view comes a glistening snil that tells us she is launched ou a wave, the good ship prohibition, the wave of humanity, boundless and free.' "Are wo nfraid to send our blessing out after thnt ship across the stormy water or to ask heaven's blessing on the brave men who direct its destiny? "Nay ; sink or swim, live or die, sur vive or perish, wo have sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat" Miss Willard recommended 'that they ask congress to pass an amendment to the interstate law prohibiting the brine ing of alcoholic liquors into the prohi hibition states, also that thev woik for the Blair educational bill nnd the Blair prohibition amendment to the national constitution, nnd for a law forbidding tue mnnulnclure 01 cignrettos and one against smoking in waiting rooms and postoflices. She said the thanks of the convention were due President Harrison for direct ing that no liquor is to be sold 011 t he government reservation in Washington to Postmaster General Wanamaker for his pronounced declaration in favor of prohibition nnd Sabbath observance, and added: "Our protest should bo sent to Vice President Morton for permitting a sa loon nuder his new hotel. It was well known the vice president was the enemy of prohibition, but that he would thus ontrnge christian sentiment lv a per sonal alliance with tho liquor traffic no one wonia hnve believed but for the in 1 dutiable proof. Iu conclusion Miss Willard paid an eloquent tribute to the memory of the Into Mrs. Hayes, and referring to the prominence or that Jnrty nnd the ex president in temperance movements eaid: "Total abstinence never had such standard bearers as this noble pair."

The Lincoln Journal say that the ministers of that city have taken bold of the matter of funeral reform, and sensible nnd practical recommenda tions from them nre published this morn ing, in view of the tendency of tho time to make oostly expenditures for easket nnd adornment, nud needless display iu various wars, on the part of both rich and poor, they recommend that all the arrangements for interment be simple and inexpensive; that no fu neral sermon be preached, the aervice Iteing as brief and simple as possible; leave be token of the dead by relatives ad near friend before the service; that the eeffln be ant 0ud for a view by the rrnUi; that the custom of walking us nor to the cemetery ead mi Nkoovering tb bead funeral Bar rio 04 f door be dJnc4. (port nt ral Cireelf. Washinotok, November 8. General Greeley, chief signal officer, in his nn nual report says: "In the performance of strict military duties, which by law devolves on him, the chief signal officer is seriously embnirassed by tho ntter lack of facilities fur using or caring for the field telegraph trains or other signal equipments under his charge; for the practical training nnd drilling of tl; officers and enlisted men of tho signal corps, and lastly, to a minor exleut, by the need of liberal appropriations. Un der such conditions the officer and men of this service nre gradually bin surely retrograding ns regard their military duties, aud nt the end tb fiscal year t he condition of the signal instruction iu the army is at the loweat ebb it bu erer known." He recommend, therefore, that either instruction in tli art of mil itary signaling be abandoned or aapl material and moral support be given the chief, so he may raise it to a tnsU standard of efficiency.

Then some nugry words followed, when both suddenly drew their weapon", Swope a pistol aud Uoodloe a clasp kuite. As boou ns the weapons were rawn Swope tired, the ball striking Goodloe iu the abdomen. Goodloe then stabbed his opponent in the breast. After several blows had been struck by Goodloe, Swope tired again, missiug Goodloe. After firing the second shot, Colonel Swope fell on his fnce, nnd wel tering iu his blood, died nlmost iustant- ly. On his person were found thirteen wounds, thev being on the back and arms nud iu his breast. Immediately after the lulling Colonel Goodloe went to a pb.vsiciuu's office, where his wounds were examined. He was perfectly cool, and mado disposi tion of his property in cose of his death. 1 he cause of the difficulty was a state ment made Ln the republican conven tion ou May 1, 188, by Goodloe, that fully two-thirds of the l avette countv delegation in the convention would not speak to Swope. Colonel Uoodloe has for years been a prominent man in Kentucky politics.

The official count of the vote will be made iu tho different counties to day oud re port made at once, so that the result will be known more positively, but a piixeil ticket is thought to have been elected. The Cincinnati J.iKiuirer editorially this morning on the Ohio election con tains the following paragraphs: "The democratic achievement in Ohio is a new monument to the principle of tariff reform which entered so largely uto the declaration of principles nt the Dayton convention and into tlie discuss ions during the campaign."
