TALMAGE TO THE SOLDIERS. JOHA. -.O.EE AI HIS TEXT AT - THE NEW YORE STATE CAMP. A arge Congregation from the Surround ing Country -. How the Congregation were Accommodated - - Synopsis of the Sermon. (From the New York Star.) When Mr. Caruthers, the gentlemanly and unbane superintendent of the Y. M. C. A. tent at the State Camp, Peekskill, retired last night, he first looked at the sky, taking note of the weather, and re marked to his assistant: "I hope it won't rain to-morrow, for if the weather is pleasant there will be a big crowd hereto her Talmage." No sooner had he made thw remark than the rain drops began topatter on his tent, and soon the rain fell heavily. There was a sharp shower, which lasted for some time, and made things very moist for the members of them'hirteenth regiment and the Third hatery. The sun came out splendidly Sunday morning, and soon dried up the camp. Breakfastcallfounda hungry lot of men. They ate such a hearty brakfast that Iona Windholt had to get an extra sup iy'of provisins. There was disappoint ment-among some of the boys because there was no pie for breakfast. They were accustomed to having it. They were firmly but politely informed that the pie would not be prodned till dinner. At 8:15 the Third battery performed the guard mount. The movement was well executed. Just as the guards were aseersning the- exact weight of their muakes a gentle shower drenched them pleasantly. At 9:30 there was company metrution, and then thecompanies were reviewed by CoL Phisterer. The guard mount of the Thirteenth was well per formed. Dinner hour found a hungry Aix bundred. The pies were there and each man had a whole one. One of the men remarked after dinner: "What sur those felows in the restaurant? eaid we atemore pie thanany other thathas ever been here. They By far themost important event of the day was the religious service. It was known far idnearthat Rev. T. De Witt Tauags,1hechaplain of the Thirteenth, warn . camp and would preach. The hour for service was set at 3 o'clock, in the big Y. M. 0. A. tent. Superintendent COrutherB'wanted to trice it up in order that it would be more airy and permit people on the outside to see the popular [reacher aad hear his sermon. In order tocefect this it was necessary to throw a Laps overtheridge pole. Mr. Carathers iled in everyattempt. Just as he was about giveit up in despair a young cow boy balong, fortunately.

The anity. He said: "Man will give nIu cents to have his faith destroyed.' would give $100 to save it. A man is no better than the company he keeps, no better than the books he reads." He alluded to some of the well known religi ous skeptics and said that all of them would eventually be saved. A man stand ing chin deep in argument trying to prove there is no God, will be converted ty a three-year-old child putting its arms around his neck and asking questions about God. He made an appeal to the members of the regiment: "Men of the Thirteenth Regiment, take aim for God. What we have great need of is practi cal Christanity." Dr. Talmage was frequently applauded during his remarks. At one time he drew tears to his listeners' eyes by rela ting a story of a young man who went to get his dying mother's blessing. He ac companied his remarks with the usual dramatic gestures. THE NEGRO IN POLITICS. Peace Restored and Now the Utmost Har mony Prevails. IND&APous, Ind., July 25.-The Ne gro Democratic National Conference, called by J. Milton Turner and seventeen other colored men, convened in the rooms of the Hendricks Club in this city at 11 o'clock this morning. All the delegates who were admitted were required to pre sent credentials to Dr. C. N. Metcalf, Sec retary of the Indiana Board of Health. Some sixty-four delegates were present, besides thirty or forty negro spectors from the city and a dozen or two white men, members of the Hendricks Club. J. Milton Turner called the Conference to order, and in his opening address stated that he had issued the call in compliance with instructions from the Chairman of the National Committee. He suggested that the Conference at once pass into ex ecutive session, excluding from the hall all persons, except reporters for the press, not holding credentials as delegates. Some confusion arose over the ruling of the chairman that the National Committee had already provided for the temporary organization. A motion to appoint a committee on temporary organization was tabled. Turner then made a short address in which he proceeded to explain that the call for the Conference had been issued because he believed it was time for the negro voters to assert their understanding, at least of the primary principles of American sov ereignty. The elevation of Cleveland to the Presidency, he said, had brought po litical emancipation which was felt by no one more than the negro, and they had honesty and courage to meet Grover Cleve land's administration half way. An Ohio delegate cried out: "Why not meet Thur man the other half?" which brought out prolonged cheers and the waving of ban dannas. At the close of Turner's address he in troduced Charles H. Shelton, of Evans ville, Ind., as temporary chairman. Noah Plummer, of Massachusetts, was made temporary secretary. A resolution endorsing Cleveland and Thurman was adopted by a unanimous viva voce vote. The balance of the session was occupied in a noisy and heated wrangle, during which the chairman was unable to restore order, over the formation of the committee on permanent ornanization. Whe the con fusion was at its worst, Prof. Clark, of Cincinnati, took the floor and succeeded in restoring order for a few minutes. In the midst of this confusion the chairman an nounced the appointment of the committee on permanent organisation and then de clared the Conference adjourned until 3 o'clock. A letter was read from Gow. T. Downing, of Newport, R. I., in which he declares for the division of the colored vote. The committee on permanent organiza tion submitted a majority and a minority report. The majority suggested Prof. Peter H. Clark, of Ohio, for permanent chairman and Thomas Fortumne, of New York, for permanent secretary and E. A. Payne, of Illinois, sergeant-at-arms. Joseph H. Ouser, of Illinois, presented the mi nority report, which named J. Milton Tur ner for permanent chairman. A motion to substitute the minority for the majority report brought two-thirds of the delgetsto their feet and pandemonium rege After much confusion the roll was called and- a tie was announced-32 to 32. This announcement was the signal for an uprising that for a moment bid fair to overwhelm and trample in the dust the half dozen reporters at the press table. There was a wild rush toward Plummer, and cries of "Fraud!" "Fraud!" "Thief!" and "You're a liar!" were roared from all sides of the hall. Finally W. T. Scott, the Cairo editor, who was conspicuously endeavoring to pro tect and defend Plunmmer, was struck in the face by some one. Scott drew a re volver from his packet and selected Mail Aet Ogilvie, of Columbus, Ohio, as his vitm. Mattars were now at white heat, and local spectators, both white and black, at tee sight of the pistols, made a mad rush for the door and tumbled pell-mell down stais Meanwhile Ogilvie and others had drawn their firearms and bloodshed seemed immi nent, when a colored police officer rushed in, and, with assistance, shoved the strug g'n combatants into the directors' room in the rear, where they ineffectually tried to shoot one another. Scott and Ogilvie were placed under ar rest, but the officer was prevailed upon to 'release them, declaring that he did so chiefly because he was a colored Republi can. Many delegates fled during the fracas. Chairman Shelton finally secured order and announced that he knew Secretary Plummer's figures to be incorrect. The true vote was 32 for Clark and 30 for Tur nr, ano he, therefore, declared Peter H. Clark, of Ohio, the permanent presiding officer of the Conference, which then ad journed, amidst confusion, until 10 o'clock soorrow morning. A largely attended mass meeting was held in the basement of the court house to night. Addresses were made by Peter H. Clark, J. Jordan Street of Boston, Ex-Min ister Taylor, T. T. Fortune and several others. Imra~ouzs, Ind, July 268-The Dem ocratic Negro National Conference reas sembled this morning at 10.30, with Prof. Peter H. Clark, of Cincinnati, in the chair as permanent president. The animosities engendered by yester day's heated contest over the permanent organization had apparently been forgiven and forgotten during the night, for har mony and fairly good order prevailed at today's session until just prior to the final adjournment this evening when, the Con ference,, tired out with a long session, got into a wrangle over a motion to adjourn sine die, which finally prevailed. In opening the Conference Chairman Clark called upon Elder J. R. McDaniels, delegate from Illinois, to offer prayer. Elder McDaniels was conspicuous in yes terday's session for the persistence with which he would maintain his ground in debate. When called on for prayer he in ssted that the delegates should first join with him in singing a hymn. Objections were raised to this suggestion, whereupon the elder said: "If you won't sing, I won't pray," and he left the hall for a short time. The Rev. Mitchell, of Michigan, then offered a prayer. J. Milton Turner and his supporters, who sustained defeat yesterday, made no effort to challenge the accuracy of the vote on the permanent organization. Chairman Clark opened the proceedings ith an adraes giving his reans why the negro should become a Democrat. He said that a careful study of the prin ciples set forth in the Democratic and Re publican platforms will convince any man that the contest for the Presidency is to be carried on this year in lines of thought new to this generation. The Republicans de clare in favor of a free ballot and a fair count, but they know full well that the evils of which they complain cannot be controlled by Federal action. The decis ions of the Supreme Court have repeatedly shown that fact. One wonders why the Republicans do not follow the path so plainly pointed out by the events of the past twenty years and why they do not re sort to State action, to State agitation, for the establishment of any rights that are now denied them. The truth is, few of the evils of which complaint is made are polit ical in their nature, and not many can be cured by political action. The policy of denunciation and hate has been fully tried. Let us try the opposite course. The chairman's address was frequently applauded. Delegate Thomas Fortune, of New York, alluding to the reports that were in circulation about a lack of harmony, called upon J. Milton Turner to say how much truth there was in these reports. Turner responded at length and said that he had been beaten in an open fighi and he accepted his defeat with the u.most satis faction. [Applause.] Turner moved the appointment of a committee on resolutions and address, and the Chair appointed a committee of ten with Thomas Fortune, of New York, as chairman. Among the other members were Chas. H. J. Taylor of Kansas, J. Milton Turner of Missouri, W. T. Scott of Illinois, and J. Gordon Street of Massachusetts. The committee reported resolutions re vising the political conditions affecting the negro, and reviewing the promises made by President Cleveland touching the full enjoyments of their rights; endorsing the position taken by the St. Louis Conven tion upon the tariff question, and pledging the best efforts of the colored American citizens towards the success of the Demo cratic party. The report was adopted by a rousing vote, Stinson of Pennsylvania being the only objector. At the afternoon session a National Com mittee was announced. The Conference adjourned sine die. The National Committee held its first meeting tonight, and elected William T. Scott, of Cairo, Ill., chairman. The fol lowing Executive Committee was chosen: J. Milton Turner of Missouri chairman, H. J. Lewis of Michigan, Frank Boyd of Kansas, C. H. Plummer of Massachusetts, and R. B. Robinson of the District of Co. lumbia. F. S. Anderson of Pennsylvania was elected secretary. A Remarkable Scotchman. There was a remarkable old gentleman among the immigrants who were quartered in Castle Garden yesterday. He is Roder ick Morrison, a Scotchman, 94 years old, and he has had some strange experiences. Fifty years ago he came to this continent and settled in St. Johns, Canada. He was the first man on this side to engage in smoking herring, and from this business he managed to acquire a fortune of over $100,000. The great fire in St. Johns some years ago destroyed all his property and almost ruined him. With the little money that he had left he journeyed to Glasgow to visit his son. He remained there a short time, and just as he was about to board the steamer Cir cassia for this country he was knocked down and robbed of everything but his passage ticket and $6 in money. The old gentleman did not have time to go back to his son for more money, so he was com pelled to sail as he was. Yesterday he said that he had a little money coming to him from the insurance companies, and if he could manage to get back to St. Johns he would goInto busi ness again. The clerks mae up the old man's fare and he dashed off for the rail road depot more like a young colt than a man of 94.-N. Y. Star, July 26. 'The Chicago Amaa==u". CmIcAGO, July 26.-It is stated today that since the arrest of Hronek, the chief would-be assassin of Judges Gary and Grinnell and Inspector Bonfield, the police have made an important discovery by working upon the fears of Hronek. Sur prisingly little dynamite was found at Hronek's house at the time of his arrest. The bulk of the contraband goods con sisted of bombs in various stages of com pletion. The police were convinced that he had access to plenty of dynamite, and when the subject was properly presented to Mrs Hronek she led the way to the basement of the building in which Sevic's ahopis, and to the delight of the officers who allowed her to do the searching, she returned to the open air with a market basket full of half pound sticks of stuff. There were fully ten pounds of it, enoug to have blown the whole neighborhood skward. It is said that the testiony before the grand jur shows that Sevic, as well as Sronek,'- kew where the dynamite was concealed. A Brute of a Husband. JcKSON~, Miss., July 26.-On Monday last Roderick Lowrey, nephew of Governor Lowrey, went to the residence of Mayor Henry, where his wife had gone for pro tection. He gained access to his wife's room, and on his wife refusing to listen to the proposals for reconciliation made by Lowrey,. he seized her by the throat and choked and bit her in a most tigerish man ner. He then seized a water pitcher which he backe over her head, and continued striking her in a most savage manner as long as a fragment of the pitcher re mained. He then seized a quart bottle and broke that also on her face. This was supplemented by savage kicks as the wman was lying on the floor. Leaving her for dead, Lowrey fled to the swamps. A posse of forty men have so far failed to arrest the fugitive. Mrs. Lowrey's condi tion today is somewhat improved. Mrs. Lowrey is described as a fair young girl, who has been married scarcely four months. Honoring American Authors. LoNDox, July 25.-Professor James Bryce, M. P., presided at the banquet given here this evening in honor of Ameri can authors. In proposing a toast to "Her Majesty the Queen and President Cleve land," Professor Bryce said that all .felt pleasure in coupling these names as typical of the unity of sentiment existent between the two great branches of the English race. Consul General Waller, responding to the toast, mentioned that President Cleveland favored the adoption of a copyright law, believing that every man was entitled to the fruits of his own labor. Professor Bryce, in proposing "Litera ture," expressed the hope ttast the present gatLering would be the first of a series of similar gatherings. James Russell 'Lowell, who had suffi ciently recovered from his indisposition to be able to attend the banquet, was received with the greatest enthusiasm upon rising to speak. In the course of his remarks he said that if there was anything in his ife to which he looked back with satis faction it was the fact that he himself had in some degree contributed to the good feeling existing between England and America. There is an impression that the rulers of Germany and Russia held their recent meeting to divide the world between them. If this is the case the two wil find that they have a big job on hand. The electric arc lights in the United States now number nearly two hundred thousand, and the incandescents number over one millin. WISHED TO KILL HER. k Wisconsin Farmer Accuses an Old Wo man of Sorcery. (From the New York Sun.] DARTFORD, Wis., July 2G.-William Roberts is a well-to-do farmer of Princeton. s sniall yilhage near here. Ie cuiitivates ,onething over 105 acres of laud and has : wife and four children. Across the road from his farm lives a wrinkled old Germian woman named Albright. 11er house is a little old cottag~e, and though a resident of the place for many ve:trs she is uitable to speak or understand a word of English. Since last Christmas Mr. Roberts :tsserts that his family and his house have been be witched, and-he swears to any number of as onishing occurrences. whieb cannot be well accounted for by ordinary means. His entire family corroborates him in a se ries of most surprising statements Gradually the man came to a belief that the witch who was exerting such occult in fluences was his little old German neighbor. He gave her on two separate occasions due warning that she must cease casting her evil eye over him. The manifestations did not stop, and so the other day he took his gun and started out to kill her. He an nounced his intention to some of his neigh bors, and they induced him to postpone the slaughter. He insisted that her death alone could dispel the evil charm, and vowed be fore an awe-stricken throng that he would become her executioner, saying that even were it his own father who had so torment ed his family he would kill him. It be came evident that Mr. Roberts should be placed in custody lest he murder the sup posed witch. He was therefore arrested and placed on trial, and thus the witchcraft disclosures came about. A book on the Occult lay at 'Squire Mc Connell's elbow yesterday, and it was evi dent that the 'squire had been preparing himself for the novel trial of consulting the authorities on witchcraft. When called for the defense, Mr. Roberts went to the witness stand. He swore that as long ago as last Christmas things at his home began to act very queerly. The first he noticed was a spot of blood on the sheets of his bed. He slept alone, and it frightened him. The sheets were changed continually, but in a short time the bloody spot would appear. One morning about 11 30 he lay down on the outside of the bed to await the call for dinner. When he arose there was a large pool of blood beneath him. He was terri bly frightened, and took of his coat and shirt to see if there was any blood on his back or garment, but there was none. Mrs. Robertson said that many a time she has put the meals on the table and stepped to the front door to call the rest of the family to dinner, and when she turned again she found the table nearly stripped of its contents. The bread and meat had disappeared, and plates, knives, forks and saltcellars had absolutely vanished as if by magic. Sometimes they would be found in an out-of-the-way place, under the wagon house, in the corn crib, out in the garden, and often they were never discov ered. These queer demonstrations and many others were sworn to by Mr. Roberts and his wife in the most honest and sol emn manner, and no amount of cross questioning could divert them from their straightforward story. The wife testified that many times when the dishes disap peared there was positively no one else in the house. Roberts averred' that he was kept busy most of the time searching for missing articles which had disappeared al most under his eyes. He was using a hammer on one occasion and laid it down at his feet. He turned his eyes away for a moment and then reached down for it, when loi it was gone. His jackknife, hoe, shovel, and innumera ble other things all acted in the same pecu liar way. Both the children, Anna and John, were placed on the stand, and they told, in a frank and artless manner, the same and many other equally astonishing occur rences. A ring had suddenly disappeared from Anna's finger. She had seen dishes come sailing out of the cupboard when no one was near, and settle softly down on the floor without breaking. Both she and the boy had seen the clothing thrown off the beds, and coats and dresses pulled from the walls and hurled across the room. A married brother, named Edward Albright, and his wife, who were here on a few weeks' visit, were called to testify. They both had similar unaccountable tales to re late. On the witness stand the family told how they had summoned the parish priest and asked him to dissolve the charm, and he had confessed to them that it seemed as if supernatural agencies were at work, and he would have to consult the bishop in or der to obtain the interposition of the church in the afflicted family's behalf. The evidence was concluded on Friday, and, thoroughly at a loss what to do, the justice continued the case for three weeks. It is the all-absorbing topic for miles around, not only among the country folk, but among the guests in the summer hotel. During the three weeks intervening a dili gent effort will be made by physicians, county officers, and a number of promi nent people, who have become interested in the case, to arrive at some intelligent conclusion.
