Christian workers In New York state.
The negro question was discussed by Rt.
Rev. C. B. Galloway, bishop of the Metho
dist Episcopal church south, of Jackson,
Miss., who said: f
"I cannot understand how you can canon
ise ,ote man for working In Africa and
ostracize another for doing the same work
at home. The problem of the negro sinks
Into insignificance beside the problem Of
the. congested foreign Immigration In our
towns. Negroes love their country, they
i,,ve Christ, they mav believe In a little
too much and there may be rather a wider
margin between their practice and their
profession, but who ever saw a negro
athrlHt?"
Other addresses at the early session to
day were made by Rev. Charles R. Wat

tary of the general missions of the United

Federation In the Philippines.
"The Philippines" were discussed by Rev.
James B. Rodgers, senior missionary of the
Presbyterian church In the Philippines, who
said In part:
"The evangelical union of the Philippine
Islands is a federation of eight evangelical
missions and societies working In the
archipelago. After six years' service the
missions report something like 12,000 full
members in the churches and as many
more adherents.
"The union has jerved as a ready instru
ment for expressing the opinion and senli- 1
ments of the evangelical churches on moral j
and civil Issues, and has aided In the de- I
feat of the plan for farming out the opium
traffic to the highest bidder by arousing
and concentrating public opinion both in
the Islands and this country as to the
danger of the government's plan. The
union strives to render efficient service In
creating an evangelical literature for the
churches in the islands and has a commit
tea even now at work on the proposition
for a Sunday school paper in all districts.
Another committee is also working on the
proposition of an evangelical university for
the islands."
Rev. J. U. Barton, corresponding secre
tary of the American Board of Commis
sioners for Foreign Missions, Boston, told
how In Japan three of the mission boards
formed themselves into the Council of Mis
sions for Japan In 1877 and formed a Jap
anese church of the Presbyterian model.
The Methodist bodies, he said, were draw,
ing together and all the Eolsconai mission
aries of England, America and Canada were
getting together as the Holy Catholic
Church of Japan.
Dr. Barton spoke of the great gathering
In Toklo in May, 1904. at which Bhlnto,
Buddhist, Roman Catholic, dreek priests
and evangelical missionaries were present
to discuss great questions of belief.
The benediction at the end of the after
noon session was pronounced by Rev. Wil

No one serious disease showed, but the

"Tho wonderful change that came over

began to look brighter and more worth

ANXIOUS TO RETURN
(Continued from First Page.)
has lately sprung Into being with organiza
tions In St. Petersburg. Moscow, the Baltic
provinces, Astrakhan, Simferopol and else
where, the principal plank In the platform
of which Is the rallying of the sober and
conservative forces of the nation fur the
purpose of attaining long-expected lilertles
through co-operation with Count Wltte, Is
preaching that all will bo lost und the
country plunged Into hopeless bloodshed
unless the forces of "law and order" unite
to nld the premier. M. Kalsky, who has
placed himself at the head of the Ht. Peters
burg group of this order, presided at an
Interesting meeting of many persons long
Identified with the liberal cause, who en
rolled themselves under the banner of the
party against the agitators.
The exodus of foreign residents who are
afraid to remain during the winter con
tinues. Most of them are going by way
of Finland, as all accommodations on the
boats which will sail before the close of
navigation have been engaged.
The cost of passage to Stettin by water
which ordinarily Is $12. Is now $100. Many
members of the English and German col
onies and about half of the small Ameri
can colony are leaving. Over 20,000 foreign
passports hax-e been Issued In St. Peters
burg during the I ant two weeks.
Workmen Reply to Wltte.
The workmen's council returned a scorn
ful reply to Count Wltte's personal appeal
to his "brother workmen," ridiculing the
government's proferMon of solicitude for
the workmen and renewing their ucmands
for the immediate abolition of martial law
in Poland, etc.
The text of the resolution Is as follows:
The council of workmen's delegates ex
presses astunisnment nt the emperor s
lavoruc, who permits himself to call tne
workmen of Hi. Petersburg Ills brethren.
The proletariat is not related to him In
any way.
Count Wltte appeals to us to be com
passionate of our wives and children. The
council, In reply. Invites tut wi.BKinen to
count the wiuuws and orpnans wno nave
been aaued to the ranks of tne Workmen
since tne uay Count Wltte assumed power.
Count Witte reveola the benevolent Inten
tions of the emperor toward the working
classes. Tne council reminds the prole. arlal
of bloody Sunday.
Count Wine begs us to give the gov
ernment time and promises to do all pos
sible tor tne workmen. 1 lie council knows
muni wine huh already inunu lime lo
glve poUina- ,nto tlie nanug of Uie m,,.,,,
executioners. 1 lie council does not doubt
Count Wltte will do ail possible to strangle
the revolutionary proletariat.
Count. Wltte calls hininpif a man who Is
benevolent toward us and wishes our good.
'1 he council declares tne working classes
have no need of the nenevolente of a court
favorite, but demands a popular govern
ment on the basis uf univeraul, direct and
secret suffrage.
Concession. .ot Broad Enough.
Count Wltte's attempt to negotiate di
rectly with tho strike leaders has come
to naught, although he offered concessions
Iji the case of the Cronstadt mutineers
In the event of their being condemned to
deati. But the leaders refused all com
promise. "All or nothing," was their re
sponse. The Imperial ukase on the land question,
issued today, although itV wipes out about
$40, 'X0,000 of the peasant's arrearages of
debt, which under ordinary circumstances
might have been received with joy, Is an
other disappointment Tho promises ' of
additional lands lire too vague to calm the
agitated, starving peasants, who, in the
valleys at the Don and Volga, are again
marching, pillaging, burning and murder

No confirmation has been obtained of the
report of a falsa emperor leading the peas

Larger Margins Required.
The manager of local branch of the Credit
Lyonnals denies the report that the bank
is refusing to accept Russian securities as
collateral. , On account of the unsettled
condition and the heavy fall In prices on
the Bourse, however, the bank Insists upon
larger margins. The following formal
statement on th. subject was made by the
bank:
The Credit Lyonnals is continuing th.
making of advances on stocks, but owing
to the fall In state funds and Industrials
and the narrow market of the St. Peters
burg Bourse, it requires larger margins
than formerly.
Other banks also are adopting the same
course and there is a noticeable disposition
on the part of all the bankers to reduco
their commitments.
A mutiny in the Manchurlan army la th.

According to the report the emperor has

wounded. Forty-two officers are reported
to have been shot for participation in the
conspiracy. s-

Jio Rla-ht to Issue Order on
Which Proceeding.
Are Baaed.
KANSAS CITY. Nov. 17.-A hearing of
the railroad rebate cases brought by the
federal government In March, 12, upon
behalf of th. federal government against
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railway,
the Chicago, Burlington A Quincy, the
Missouri Pacific and the Chicago, Rock
Island A Pacific was begun here today I
in me i nited States district court before
Judge John F. Phillips. The arguments
upon behalf of tho government were pre
sented by Milton D. Purdy, assistant
United States attorney, and Ivan Yalken
burg, United States district attorney of the
western district of Missouri. Gardiner
Lathrop ot Chicago, chief counsel for the
Santa Fe, and Judge O. M. Spencer of St.
Joseph, chief counsel of the Burlington,
represented the railway companies.
The railways named were originally en
JolnedV by Judge Philps from granting al
leged rebates on meat products, salt and
coal, and later contempt proceedings were
filed In the district court hero by Assistant
AttorneyGeneral Purdy, who, alleging that
the railroad companies had violated the
court's enjoining order, asked the court to
cite the companies for contempt, which
was done. To this citation the railroads
filed demurrers, which were argued today.
Arguing on behalf of the Santa Fo rail
road today, Gurdlner Lathrop took the
stand that the district court lacked juris
diction In the case. The proceedings
against the Santa Fe, the Missouri Pacific
and the Rock Island alleged that these
companies gave rebates to th. Hutchinson
(Kan.) Salt company In collusion with
tho Hutchinsontft Arkansas River railroad,
wTilch latter company. It was shown, was
controlled and operated by the alt com
pany. In the case of the Santa Fe It was
alleged In addition that rebates had been
granted on coal to the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company.
The hearing was upon two, motions, one
f.0 quash the information In regard to the
alleged rebates charged to have been paid
to the Hutchinson (Kan.) Salt company
and the other to the Colorado Fuel and
Iron company.
Technical Points Rnlsed.
The Atchison, Topeka , & Santa Fe Rail
road company contended that the original
bill had been Improperly filed at the In
stance and upon the mere request of the
Interstate Commerce commission, that It
was filed before the passage of the Klklnt
act and that prior to the passage of the
Elkins act the court had no jurisdiction to
entertain such a bill; that this point was
expressly decided by the United States su
preme court in the case of the government
against the Missouri Pacific Railway corn
pans This decision ws after th. filing of
the bill In this case; that having no jur
isdiction the restraining order Issued was
void, and could not be made the foundation
for -a contempt proceedings; that since the
passage of the KIklns act there had been
no amendment made to the bill of com
plaint, so that there was no charge by
the bill ot any violation of law since the
passage of the Elkins law, which alone
gave an authority for a proceeding of this
kind.
The railroad company further contended
that, even after the passuge of the Elkins
law, the court in Missouri had no jurisdic
tion because of article xvl of the Interstate
commeroo act the suit could be brought
and maintained only in the judicial district
where it had its principal office, and that
would be in Kansas, where the company
alleged It was incorporated; also that the
bill upon Its faco did not allege that any
of tho acts complained of were committed
in this judicial district, but elsewhere and
beyond Its limits.
