Chairman Miilsnp is highly gratified
with the result of the committee's

said, “we got more than we asked for.
The rates promised us by the railroads
are even lower than we hoped to ob
tain. The Missouri i’acific.Iron Moun

us a very low rate. The Illinois Cen

those previously seen promising a
handsome reduction in the rate. VVe

we get home and I have no doubt we
will get a special river rate. After we

he added that if an attempt was made
to tiring tlie men together in a ring
they would lie arrested.
Lewis directed the district attorney's
attention to the tights that took place
at the broadway Athletic club, to
which backus replied: "it make- no

PARKHU RSTSENSATIONAL.
Hie Well. Known Preacher siarilo Xcw
York So; !c!y.
W York, Nov. 30.—"Idonot know
<v many unfaithful husbands or
'/rive's there are in tills community, but
1 should calculate that there might lie
well on toward a quarter of a million.
T‘n* love between husband and wife is
kept true In some east's by the possess
ion of children, but I have learned
enough to know that in the ease of any
couple that might present themselves
Isifore me to get married 1 would not
at any rate of premium issue an insur
anoe policy on their conjugal fidelity,
good for more than five years, unless
on the contingency of offspring or on
thc basis of their common faith in
God.”
This statement, made by Dr. Park
hurst in the course of bis Thanks,,'ly
ing sermon, has created a profound
sensation in the metropolis, and, in
connection with other portions of the
sermon, Is believed to ha the forerun
ner of another Parkbiirstlun crusade
Dr. Purkhurst. assailed women bar
gain hunters as bloodsuckers and mur
deresses, and declared that a woman
who will ransack the stores and pick
up an article marvellously cheap,
knowing it. as sin- must, to lie the
product of some poor girl in a sickly
back alley, cannot escape guilt bv
Joining a relief or rescue society and
packing off the unavailable portions
of her wardrobe for distribution
among these girls, lie paid bis re
spects also to the magnates of the
Coal Trust, stigmatizing these phil
anthropic gentlemen as enemies of the
human rms- and possessed "of the de
mon of theft and murder.”
Dr. Park hunt included ajl trusts in
tills category.
iteing interviewed to-day regarding
his statement that u quarter of a mil
lion husbands and wives in New York
are unfaithful, Dr. I’urkliurst said:
“When I suy a quarter of a million,
it is a round sum that comes very close
to the real figures.
"I have figured It from my own ex
perience. I icing one of the National
Christian League for the Promotion of
Social 1'iiritv, I have had ample oppor
tunity to make a careful study."
‘•You state in the sermon that there
can )»• no love without religion, do you
not?”
"No, 1 do not say that. 1 say that I
would not issue a policy for more than
five years on the conjugal fidelity of a
couple who had no children and did
not believe in a common Father in
Heaven.
"Almost every person who has come
to me here in my study and told me of
conjugal infidelity has told rne that
they were childless. There were only
one or two exceptions. Children are a
binding tie. You will a1 ways find that
when a couple have children and be
lieve in u common Father in Heaven
martial faith fulness exists.
"1 know the figure mentioned is an
alarming one, but J arrived at it care
fully. ”

St. JosF.rM. Mo., Nov. 26.—About ,
thirty-five years ago a stage was robbed
at lielmont, and the robbers buried the ,
$3.1,000 in gold they took from it on the
highest peak of the bluffs northwest of
the city. That is the legion that has
been handed down since that time, and
a great many people believe it. John
ivrainbeuhl, a grocer at Water
and Pauline streets, believe* that
there is plenty of gold buried on
the hills, and he has been searching •
for it. Three months ago he hired a j
number of men and set them to work j
on the hills. They have excavated in
several places and the trees near the
summit have been taken out by the
roots. Home of the excavations are :
thirty feet deep and forty or fifty feet j
across the top. A great trench has j
