Ho contended thut the evidence Introduced by the state as to the discovery of dynamlto'-bombs In va rious portions of the city was Irregular and t-hould not have been introduced In ( bis case to the piejudlcc of the defendants. He also argued that the testimony of the witness ( illiner should havi ) I wen discredited , Inidiam made the ojienlng speech for the state. Ho said the most seilous contention Hindu on HIP motion for a new trial relates to the empanelling of a jury. Ho said thnt the local conclusion uf the proposition of the defense was that while an offender , guilty ot a misdemeanor which did not appeal to thopii'Judieesof the jury , could bo brought to jitslleeaml punished , a criminal guilty of a crime iniiurulcllcd In the diabolism of his acts and his teachings secures Ins safety.

Davlil II. Hill Talks on National Af fairs of Government. Nr.w YonK , Oct. C. [ Snfcltil Telogiam to the BEE.J The World this morning prints a long Interview with Governor Hill. During the Interview Governor Hill discussed gen erally the national administration , without entering Into personalities. Ho felt that no one man was necessary to the success of any party. The party lt clf was the best guar anty for the carrying out of its principles. The great masses of the party after election did not desire ollice. All they had sought to secure wns n change of administration In the Interest of good government The governor was asked what lie thought vonld bo the principal Issue In the coming iri'sidcntlal campaign. He replied : "I think that the question of oed government will Do the Is ue. It will 'O ' simply a question of whether the demo- latic party shall bo maintained In power. " ' Then you don't think tariff will be the "No , I do not. The tariff question is a ompliCAled one. I am moie in sympathy vltli the expression of the Ohio state plat- orm of l bil upon this subject than 1 am vv ith he plank In tlie Chicago platform of f54. " The governor said , In speaking of the changes which weio taking place In the fed- tal ofllecs of the country , that 10 believed thnt by the time he piesldent's turn had come o a close demociats would be found In a ma- orlty ot the offices' . It was well to be conservative vative at the start The democratic party came into ] Kwt > r new to public ailniliilstr.i- lon , and It was vv Itlinut doubt a wise policy o move deliberately at lirst I In spoke pleas antly of the piesident and his associates. Wliflo he cotilini'd his discussion on national xiralrs to general matters more than to per sonalities , vet there was nothing In his man- leror line of conversation to indicate any ) tit the pleas.intest feelings toward the presi- lent. The governor possibly may make one or two speeches this year in thu campaign. Ho las been invited to go to Pennsylvania to aid n Governor Black's canvass and may make x speech at Philadelphia a few dajs preccd- ng ttie election. THE SPOUTING WOULD. The Base Uall Kcconl.

" Oct. 0. fSpoclal Telegram o the Ben. I The drift of events to-day hews that while both of the worrying fne- ions ot the American board arc ready for a ighton the subject of future probation they are a little reluctant to begin. Each side lecms disposed to out off the contest as long is possible , for there w.i3 a manifest purpose o-day to light shy of the subject , though here was a very deep undercurron t of feel- ngs on both sides. The A ml over men are very much in earnest In their deslro to have ho question brought to a focus at once. They say It is nn outrage to keep devoted mis sionaries fiom their field of labor on iccount of a mere difference of theological opinion. Tim old school men , on the other mud , \eiyseveio in their tenacity for what they call the established doctrines of the church , someof them do not hesitate to call the Andover men traitors , and say that f Newman Smyth and his followers want to start n new missionary they can do so , but they ought not to stay In the old fold and at tempt to overthrow Its established policy. The feeling to-night Is very Intense , nnd nn outbieak Is looked for to-morrow. The sen timent of the audience generally seems to bo witli the old school teachers. Many , who , moro or less , agree with the Andover men. arc afraid of a pchlsru , and so they try to avoid becoming subject to n crisis. They are in favorof dodging an open debate , and post poning. If possible , the rising of the vexed question. Dr. Sturdcvant , of Cleveland , O. , when speaking extemporaneously to-night upon the subject of mission woik , urged the importance ot unity and harmony in the body of ChiKst and he remaiked significantly and impressively , "God grant that there bo no schism of the body. " The remark was greeted witn loud applause. It is believed to-night that when the leport of the committee ou the annual report ot the whole committee is broueht up , which will probablj be tomorrow row , the explosion will come , if any Is to come , as that prudential committee is the one rl.at refused to end Mr. Hume back to his India station , when they found that he lieved in future probation of heathen. Procceilincs in Detail. DES MOIXES , la. , Oct. C. Promptly at 'J o'clock the laige auditorium ot the Grand opera house was filled for the opening of the second day's pioceedings of the American board of missions of the Congregational church. Among the new arrivals were Rev. Newman Smyth , ot Now Haven , nnd Dr. Lunan Abbott , editor of the Christian Union , of New York. As both these men are leaders in the new departine , the radical members feal greatly strengthened and ex pect to make a pretty good stand for the ad vanced doctrines they hold. President Hop kins teed the chair , and after devotional ex ercises called for a paper by the CQne p.ond Ing secretary , Dr. Alden , onthcinter-depeitO ence of homo and forcien missions. This was followed by the appointment of the nominating committee , which will name the next place of meeting and the prea chers for tne UTO succeeding years : AFTKUXOOX SKfcllOX.

One of the foreign ( secretaries read an ad- rtiess on the subject of constant factors in the missionary problem. In conclusion , he said : "If wo mean to succeed In our missionary , wo shall make it our leading aim always , and everywhere , to hi ing the power of Christ's words and name , unmodihed by human spec ulations , unshorn of a single truth , nome to the souls of slntul men as the only hope of salvation.

The opening exercise of the evening ses sion were conducted by Dr , Hntchlnson and Itev. Aithur Little , of Chicago ( named ns a member of the committee in place of Dr. Quint , who declined the position. ) Dr. Magoun , of Iowa , referred to the fact that the American board met for the lirst time In the prohibition state of Iowa ( Applause ) and ho suggested as an appropriate recogni tion of the fact that the president and secre tary of the board of the Woman's Christian Temperance union , asking that one day of the annual week of prayer be tetaMde for the abolition of the liquor tratlic.

Dak , , then ; nude the last speech an the subject of Mr. Clark's report Ho declared emphatically that the church could not and would not glvo up a single one of its many missions , al though the board sorely needed funds and missionary workers. Dr. Tile , of Chicago , then reported for the committee thnt had received Dr , Aldan's ad dress on Independence and homo and foreign work , cordially endorsing and commending It After announcement the board ad journed until morning. So far the board has managed to steer clear of any class ot the doctrinal topln that Is up permost in the minds of both factions. The Episcopal Convention. CHICAGO , Oct 6. The general convention of the Protestant Episcopal church of the United States opened here to-day , The house of bishops assembled In the lecture room of St James Episcopal church , corner of Caia and Huron streets , shortly before 10 o'clock , to prepare for the opening services of the convention.

GeonroC. Had dock , has been bufett of one of her best and bravest sons , because the voters of this nation have not yet been convinced that the true way to enforce law is to put Into otlice those only who are for law and to punish nil o/Ji- / cers who fail to faithfully execute the law which they have been sworn to administer ; that our secretary bo instructed to furnish the Methodist Recorder , of Pittshurg. the Methodist Protantant of Baltimore , and the Associated Press' each with a copy of this peper. _ THE ON'B FOUJj BLOT. Kcport of the Utah Commission on WASIIIXOTOX , Oct 6. The Utah commis sion , by Its c'.iairuinn , A. B. Cuilcton , has Jiled with the secretary of the Interior Its an nual report , of which the following is n synopsis : During the year the law regarding the dis- franchiseinent of polygamists and those living In unlawful cohabitation has been fully and successfully enforced. All such pcr.sons , with very few. If any exceptions , have boon excluded from voting and holding olllccs. A Inrge number havn been fined and Imprisoned in the penitentiary for polygamy or unlawful cohabitation , chiefly for the lat ter offense. It is reported and believed by many non-resident Mor mons , that during the year a largo number of polygamous marriages have taken place. Whether , ii | > on the whole , polvga- mous marriages are on the decrease In Utah Is .a matter on which different opinions are expressed , but undoubtedly inanv have been restrained by feiir of dlstranchisement nnd the penitentiary ; and.vve think it is safe to say that In the more enlightened portions of the territory very few polygamous marriages have occurred within ijie last year. Referring to jrie joifat resolution novvpend- Ingin both nouscspf poniress proposing an amendment to the constitution of the United States prohlbitiug'anU' punishing polygamy in all of thn slatoVf and territories , ex tending the judicial ; power ot thu federal government tq thii . prosecution of such offenses , the rcpoisah | < : "While wo re of the opinion thar. tt > U 'sliould not supersede other measures ; wdafc satisfied it would be nn eflicient factor In 'effecting the desired result. " _ J The report calls aiteJitlon to the magnitude of the evil by say In * that there are more than JOO.OOO Mormons In Iho. woild , the large ma jority of whom live Ir ) Utah , and that while only a portion of them practice - - ' ; amy. they , all believe In It as a dlvino revelation. "Tne only Immediately effective remedy. " the report says , "would be the use of the inllltnry\ but thai a sense of modern civilization will not permit the em ployment of bayonets against women ami children. If the present laws of the pro posed constitutional amendment aie not suf ficient to suppress the evil , moie strlngenl enactments must be adopted , and the resuli will bo that , at no distant day , this relic ot Asiatic baibarism , this blot on the fair fame of America , will be swept from the land.

I saw Indies In their cabin and called them to come forward. I saw liio coming Iroin under the boiler deck , and 1 took the ladies forward to the boiler deek and started down stairs where the pilot , Geaveau. gave live preservers to them , telling them nil to put them on immediately , 1 ordcied the stage plunk thrown overboard which was promptly done and wo put all the ladies on the plank. The rleglnir became detached and the plank swung out. Mrs. M. Selmcrs jumped Into my anus , i landed heron the blase while 1 was thrown into the river my- selt. I swam along : the. Mdo or thn stacc and made the men get off so it would bear up the ladies. I then swam to the cdtro of the rooks and crawled ashoie.

Oct 6. [ Special Telegram to tlie BEK.J The Times this morning savs edi torially : "If Chicago were not the grealest American market for cattle and beef nnd hog jnoducts , the remarkable stupidity which the Illinois live stock commissioners have shown in the treatment of the contagious disease In the distillery stables might not cause surprise or excite indignation beyond the boundaries of the city. The inhabitant * of Chicago , to whom the carcases of the slop-fed cows are to bo sold , and to whom milk from the Infected and diseased cows has been .sold for the last two weeks , might somewhat loudly complain , but people elsewheie would bo moved only by sympatb > . The tiuatmcnt of the diseased cattle in Chicago is however , something In whfcli hundreds of thousands of people liv ing far from Illinois are interested , as they iccclve their supplies of beef from that city. Not only dons the matter closely concern all consumers of Chicago beef , but It i also of great importance from a commercial point of vlow , for anything that has a depressing effect upon the bcof trade Is 'a blow to xonp fof thecountry's "slbners of Illinois and dealers in cattletind beef in Chicago should know that for the rea sons the dally reports , which show the wretched failure to work for the suppression of the disease , are read with indignation out side of their city. It mavbotnat the. careful Inspection of infected cows slaughtered bv their owners will prevent the marketing of bad meat , but docs the course taken by the commissioners and the health officer indicate that the Inspection will bo thorough ? There is another aspect of this matter which de serves the attention of the stock yards men , butchers and packers. Can thov afford to have any of this slop-fed and infected beef sold In the public market of Chicago ? They cannot They could better alToid to buy and destroy lifty such herds. But if they really cared for the reputation of their trade , or could see that it would bo Injured by such sales , they would have taken measures for their protection long ago.

Although Povvderly and the numbcrsof tlie executive bonid of Iho Knights of Labor were up until n late hour last night , completing the necessary work in connection with propositions which they In tend submitting to the convention , they were all up early this morulny , and a ma jority of them on thulr way to Armory hall before 9 o'clock , the hour set for the begin- Ing of the session. Althoiuh It was the third day of the convention , the members were not yet ready to beeln the actual work they had eomo to do. There still remained to bo settled the uuestlotiB of electing eight or ten delegates which thecommltteoun ciedentlals hail refcued to tin ; cini UMitlmi. Powdeily and all leading mumbeis lefused to say whether thrs-c eight or ten men me delegates fiom Brooklyn's MontauU Protective association or not nut It Is generally understood that the strong fccllne axe ! ted ny the efforts of the Brooklyn men to obtain recognition made the committee on credentials hesitate. They were further prompted to such ac tion , it Is said , by ns eillous made by some that the committee wns prejudiced against the Brooklyn mini. To-day thn prlnclnnl topicof discussion was the r. mission last night of a eoioied delegate , Fariell , to a seat In the orchestra circle in the Academy of Music , a section nf tlie auditorium In the Richmond theater hitherto stiictly guarded from Intrusion of all persons of his race. The general feeling among Virginians hero U bit ter resentment and they regard the delo- pates fiom District 49 with anything but friendly feelings. It Is said that a majority of the local knUht.s RIO much provoked nt the action of thelt iclchmond brothers , and it was reported that n lew knights living hero do- clnied their Intention of abandoning Uio order and joining the Law and Order league , organized hero in sworn opposition to the knights. At noon a recess was taken until 2 o'clock. Powdorly announced to the representatives of the nrcss that he had nothing to commun icate to them. Some secret business had boon transacted , but of course he could not say ns to Its nature. The morning session wan mainly devoted , lie said , to the consideration of the report of the committee ou creden tials , which has not been finally acted upon. The delegates arc unusuallv reticent , anil such statements as can bo elicited by inquiry are contradictory. It seems saic to say , however , thnt whatever action has been taken bv the oiedential committee in iho case of District ! ' . and Brooklyn delegates in unfa voi able to the latter. The tceline of the majority of dc legates outside of New Yoik Is In iavorof Hiooklyn. It now seems possible that the third dav ' session may end with the convention still unorganized. The afternoon session bezlnnlng nt 2 o'clock lasted ncatty nn hour beyond the i ognlnr time for ndjournmoiit , n o'clock. Matters then stood about where they wera thlri morning. Poudeilv , tluough whom all the official news of the proceedings is slvcn to the press , told the reporters ho had nothliigr in the way of news to give tlicfn. The can- ventlon , he paid , was still considering. the port.of uthjaijspmmltteo on credentials , nnd the light over the admission of the eight or ten delegates whom the committee refened to the convention Is still In progress. Who . * ? N these del ega ten are Powderly and other lea&e In ? knights still refuse to say. Until this dlscn ion I& ended no other work can bo dono. It was rumored to-day that the delegates of district , with the colored hi other , FarrclJ , Intended going to Ihe Richmond theatre thlu evening and if the latter was refused admis sion to lorce their way in with him. Mrs. Powell , proprietor and manncor ofthe the atre , heard of the rumor and gave Instruc tions that Farrell should not bo admitted ex cept to the gallery reserved for negroes. Be- foie the thcatio opened Chief Poe and thlity- live policemen were on guard there. At the hour for ojKMiiniT the tno theatre thousands of people assembled on Bioad street The col ored delegate nnd his fellow members of dis trict 49 did not appear and there was no dis turbance. The crowd lemalned about the theatre until neatly 10 o'clock. It Is stated oflicially to-night by a member of the executive board that the report of the committee oil credentials has been accepted on all the contested scats cases excepting those of Morrison of New York and the SU Louis delegation. Brooklyn Montauk dele gates were lefused admission on the con stitutional ground that wheie there Is a mixed district another district cannot be formed without the consent of the existing district , unless It lias obtained a charter. The Brooklyn seceding district has neither such consent nor charter. Brnkcmen Strike. CT.RVKI.ANII , O. , Oct 0.
