PRESIIYTEIIIAXS MEF.T AT W1AOXA William J. Drill Principal Speaker at General Missionary Itnlly. WINONA LAKE, Ind., May 17. Special trains brought to Winona tonight several hundred commissioners from eastern states who will attend the general assembly of the Presbyterian church, which will con vene tomorrow morning. About 400 com mlssloners with as many laymen attended a general missionary meeting tonight at which William J. Bryan was the principal speaker. Philadelphia, Columbus, O., and Dea Moines desire the meeting next year. Two questions which are of particular interest to southern Presbyterians will be the consolidation of the general assembly with the Cumberland branch and that of separate presbyteries for colored people. It is understood the consolidation will take place, but It will not be brought about at once. There are many minor questions to be disposed of first. Dr. Moffett, president of Washington and Jefferson college, and Dr. J. F. Hendy of Jefferson City, Mo., are candidates for the office of moderator. The election takes place tomorrow. The foreign mission conference began Its work, Secretary Arthur J. Brown of the board of missions presiding. Nearly SO) persons were present. In the audience were Heated Justice Harlan of the United States (supreme court. Mrs. Harlan and William Jennings Bryan. Justice Harlan is here to urge the construction of a Presbyterian cathedral at Washington.' Mr. Bryan Is here to attend the meeting of presidents of Presbyterian colleges. Hearty laughter and applause greeted the opening remarks of Justice John M. Harlan of the United States supreme court, who said: If the Presbyterians need more money for foreign missionary work, Mr. Bryan could ralxo plenty ot It by devoting twelve months to it and charging ad.mlsHlon while speaking for the missionary cause among tne churches. The time is coming when Mr. Bryan will regret, and L will regret with him, that this country is a world power. It will be regretted that we are governing millions of people without their consent and are taking on a colonial system such as Eng gland has. We dare not become a world power unless we are willing to accept all of the responsibility. One of the responsi bilities Is that of spreading religion. Mr. Bryan, who followed Justice Harlan, said In part: If I should have no more success In rais ing a campaign fund for foreign missionary work than I had In raising a fund for do mestic campaign purposes. I would not be very successful. I am not convinced" that this government will substitute the sword for the Bible In Its work In forelcn lands One missionary from this country has more power to aeai wun mis work in foreign lands than a whole army of the government. Continuing. Mr. Bryan made It clear that he la a believer In foreign missionary work. He said: I believe that the sermon on the mount snouiii te carried to every soul on earth. I believe In Imnrovlntr the bodv and mind If my son were a street digger, I should want him to be an educated digger. believe in training the heart. The world Is moved more through the heart than tnrougn tne minn or body. The day Is com Ing when religion will be stronger than ever. That It will come from the heart as the people draw nearer to the teaching or me Master. Mr. Bryan paid tribute to the mtsslona rles In foreign lands, saying that they are better Christians than those who stay at home Mr. Bryan left for Chicago tonight I. i "Why is there no magazine in English that publishes the great foreign stories we hear nbout so often?''

"He is a young and strong man, and as he placed his lack against the door and refused to let me out I realized that some thing would have to be done." The witness then told how, under the threats of Algoe and to prevent a scandal which would, he believed, be circulated by his enemies he had gone and got 250, which he had given to Algoe. Witness did not spare himself for the temporary weakness which led him to make this con cession and whilo he was recounting the trip to the Commercial National bank and to entangle a man whose standing, age and reputation were such that It was con sidered absolutely Impossible he would put up a fight thatwou!d drag him into court tn an errort to. send tne unKnown Dannu to the penitentiary, especially since he had a female foil, and then possibly to uncover and bring to justice the criminals behind the scenes. Algoe Kails to Score. At the afternoon session cross-examlna- the paying over of tho money there was a tlon of Mr. Rosewater was continued for an hour. It did not develop anything to the advantage of Algoe. All of his efforts breathless hush In the court room. Hlackmnller Cornea Back. That same afternoon. Algoe impudently walked Into Mr. Roaewater's office In The Bee building and said he wanted more money. The first bunch had come so easy It had evidently given him an appetite for more. Mr. Rosewater stood him off, as he said on the witness atand, "until I couldj arrange to trap him." Algoe persisted In chasing his victim for more coin and went again and again looking fur It. From the witness straightforward story of their negotiations the man had gained the settled belief that rather than lace the nastlness of publicity In thia perfidious! bald badger game Mr. Rosewater would give him all he might ask. Finally he got to The Bee office at the right moment, after dodging several ap pointments by anywhere from a half to an hour. It seemed queer to the listeners that, as Mr. Rosewater told the incidents. Algoe always timed his vistta so that he found hts victim alone, and refused to talk when anyone else was present. This went on for several days, until' the 28th day of April, when the blackmailer bullied his way in with the assertion that he must have what he called "the balance Of that money right away, or I will end It right here." Just then Chief of Police Donahue, who waa concealed behind a screen' In- the room, appeared and took the desperado VA SECRET."

He would not consent to have any one present when he went hunting for easy money. A long series of questions were asked by Algoe's attorney, going over earlier testimony. They developed nothing, except that Algoe, In hla Intimidating In terview atahe hotel and elsewhere, had refused to be specific In his charges of al leged Injuries sustained at the hands of Mr. Rosewater. The Iteration and reitera tion of the questions at this time would never be permitted In district court. Witness testified that the climax of Al goe's aggravating visits came on April 28. On that day he went to the editor's office In a truculent humor. Mr. Rosewater called his manner strenuous, but the full realization of the piratical campaign, which he aought to bring to a successful close on that day, came to all present-when Chief Donahue took the starid later. In spite of the- avalanche of pointless queries, coupled with Innuendoes hurled at him, the witness answered r!th admirable courtesy and unwearying patience. At times Mr. Rosewater did not even give the county attorney or Mr. Connell a chance to object, but gave to his legal and per sonal opponent r hit the Information he qould thrnk- of that inlght more strongly Illumine the casa. . A' tricky - man or one who felt In any way guilty of offense would have given the Algoe advocate much into custody. Even then It was hoped that trouble; Mr. " Rosewater simply tried to tne unknown pirate couia dp. maae to lei go and proceed about his alleged legiti mate business If he was not prosecuted. Whoever his skilled outside advisers were, however, they evidently keyed him up to go through with hts specious plea of a broken home and his wife' honor, tho hurt to which, he asserted, ouly money could heal. Dnnn Trie to Distort Facts, On cross-examination Algoe'a attorney sought to give out the Impression that the witness had made two separate pay ments of money. This was denied point blank, and was not pushed any farther. Likewise the witness denied eVer having given the woman any money, except Jl he had loaned her when she appealed to him that sne needed It for a pair of over shoes. Getting to the scene In the room at the hotel, the attorney tried to frame questions that would draw from the witness some Incriminating admissions. He was an- glve Information. .And he gave precisely the same Information to as many as a dozen different framings of the same ques tion. Ho Desire to Persecute. In one instance, replying to a question asked in several different guises, Mr. Rose. water said positively that he did not at any time ask that Algoe be compelled to leave , town. He had no disposition what ever to harm him, or to have anyone else persecute him. When he broke down In the chief's office.' said Mr. Rosewater, "and I saw him shortly afterward, "I recalled to him that his own father could not have given him better advice than I did at the time he was holding me In his room for what . cuse Mr. Rosewater of a crime. It was as further consider the wisest course to pur sue, I sent It back. "While In my office Algoe broke down and cried, after I had let him rend the statute for himself. He began to whimper miserably and said: 'I wish you had killed me right there and sent me to h 1, where I belong. I wish you would do It now. We're both gone to 1. 1 anyway, and I don't care how soon It Is ended.' "He said more to the same effect, but after I talked to him a while he quieted down and showed m a service card from a railroad he had worked on. He denied that he was a d d scoundrel, but said he was broke and had no friends here, had become desperate and had to havo money. He said he could now see where his action were bringing him and offered to go to work for Mr. Rosewater, If he could use him, until he could pay back tho amount he had got. Iloifnalrr Titles the Wretch. "Shortly after Algoe had broken down Mr. Rosewater came ever to my office and during the conversation Algoe said he wanted to repay the money he had got from Mr. Rosewater at the bank. In an swer to a question by me If he wanted Algoe sent away from Omaha Mr. Rose water said he did not; he had never driven any man away from Omaha, and did not want to do so. I asked him If he would feel safe with Algoe In the city and he said he would if tho young man would go to work and behave himself. "If It had not been for Mr. Rosewater's request that scandal be avoided for the aake of others than himself I should cer tainly have placed Algoe under Immediate arrest.. It Was a question for tho exercise of a man's best Judgment, In my view, and it Was only after giving tho matter serious Consideration for several days that I swore to the complaint. I had also In the moan time learned other facts which clinched my decision." Cross-examination brought from Chief Donahue the blunt statement that he found Mr. Rosewater frightened, worried and nervous to a high degree through the chase Algoe had been Conducting for blackmail money. "I think It was more a dread of the pos sible scandal than personal fear," said the chief, "but he was Intensely agitated and excited. The loss of tho money did not seem to bother him so much as the con tinual harrasslng by threats of what Algoe might do." Haa Attorney Beforehand. The chief also told how Algoe had asked: "If I am arrested can I see my attorney?" He was told he could. Algoe's counsel tried to get Donahue to say "an attorney," but the chief aald he had a distinct recollec tion of the words, "my -attorney," being used. Algoe evidently had a plan of de fense mapped out In advance. When he offered to pay the money back ss soon aa he could earn it, Mr. Rose water went and wrote out a note for $1'50, running one year without Interest. He had said he did not consider it any good, but to the chief Algoe said He would prove they were mistaken and would pay It. "He took the note," said Chief Donahue, looked it over, also the quitclaim receipt attached. In which he released any claim of any klrld against Mr. Rosewater. 'Why, certainly I'll sign that,' he said, and went over to my desk and did sign It, and I wit nessed It." Algoe confessed to Donahue, and to Rose water and Connell afterward, that he had given part of the 1250 to his wife. With the rest he said he had paid some bills he owed around town. There are also some he did not pay. Algoe'a attorney got full and free answers from Chief Donahue, without a hint of hesitation. No better witness ever testified In such a case and the most crit ical cross-questioning did not bring even a hint of change, except to correct and make stronger the direct story. With the chief's testimony tho btate rested and Algoe's attorney called Mr. Connell to the stand to have him tell of the note and quit claim receipt. Mr. Con nell produced the note, which went into the record. He had destroyed the receipt as being of no possible use to anyone. Afraid to Pat on Witness. I. J. Dunn, counsel for the blackmailer, then went Into consultation with Mrs. Algoe for ten minutes. When they re turned Into court the woman wore a dis turbed and worried look. It was rather expected she would take the stand, but she did not. Their counsel then opened up his argument, the state having waived the opening. He contended there was no case made out on the first three counts of the complaint, for the reason that there were no specific verbal threats by Algoe to ao- APENTA The Best Natural Purgative Water in Bilious Attacks and Disorders of the Liver. it r4 fr "IT sail- 3t: EUSany a Raim Ilasbought his home, and freed it of debt by means of a loan obtained of The Conservative Savings & Loan Association, 205 South lGth Street.

DonKlaa Derides Aaralnat Employes. BOSTON, May 17. In a statement Issued today Governor Douglas, as referee In the settlement of the Fall River Textile strike of 1904, finds that a partial restoration of wages is not warranted. When the strike was settled In January, last through Gov ernor Douglas' Intervention, he was em powered to fix a margin of profit at which operatives would receive an Increase of wages. The governor reports that the con ditions between the months between Janu ary and April were not such as to war rant an Increase. Tho strike, which affected about 2G,MX persons, was begun in July, 1904, to resist a cut of 12V4 per cent In wages. 7h. strike lasted nearly six months, at the end of which time tho operatives returned to work with the reduction In effect. Tho strikers went back In consequence of the amicable intervention of Governor Doug las, and the agreement was that the gov ernor should, after Investigation, decide upon what margin the mill owners could grant an Increase of 5 per cent up to April 1 of this year. The governor offers no direct recom mendation bearing on the Fall River situa tion. Governor Douglas finds that it would re quire a margin of "4 38-100 cents between the price of cloth and Its equivalent In unmanufactured cotton to pay the re quested Increase of 6 per cent In wages earned during the lime which his Investiga tion covered. This margin would allow per cent for mill dividends and 5 per cent for annual deprecation. While the exact margin of profit which prevailed during the period of Investiga tion Is not exactly known, since it Is a matter which the manufacturers alone have knowledge. It is understood that It waa under 70 cents.N IMTEn BRETHREN El-ECT BISHOPS New Members ot the- Board Are Dra Weakley, Bell and Carter. TOPEKA, Kan.. May 17.
