week or ten days. Fourteen companies
at least are to be included io the com?
bination if the plans do not miscarry,
aed several others, making, perhaps, a
total of 20, are expected to be added.
A list of the corporations DOW interest?
ed io the negotiations and including
the largest of them, isas follows :

the companies named above After
the conference the party proceeded to
Norfolk and inspected the plaots of
some of the lumber companies A
conference has since been held in New
York and the negotiations, have, it is
said, practically reaohed a successful J
termination
It is understood that ali the capital
to secure the consolidation will be
forthcoming and that the Belmont? will
finance the deal, the total value of the
various plants being about $25,000,

Mr Auerbach is to attend to the
legal side of tho preposition. The
combination is to control the market for
Carolina pine, which is said to have
been much demoralized by compomiob
between the numer?os concerns in thc
t-ace. This ciass of lumber figures
Expensively as building material, being
used in every way that lumber is ne
Besssry io the erection of ali classes cf
structures. ? According to a promi
cent lumber man, it is not proposed to
idvaoce prices, bat to make money by
?concc?izing in the operating expenses ;

Democratic club bef 3 starting for
the pier. Mr Croker said :
"This movement by Tammany hall
against vice means business We
aave taken up the fight to purify the
city in earnest, and we propose to
carry it to a successful issue "
"Have you any parti?g instruc?
tions to give to the committee of five
in the matter of the vice crusade ?"
Mr Croker was then asked
"Only ibis," he answered "Thia
plau was* formed two months ago
We did not put it into execution
before election because we feared the
people would misconstrue the motives
which actuated the plan for the
betterment of the city "
Chief Devery was asked at police
headquarters today if be had read
the letter sent by Bishop Potter to
Mayor Van Wyck, calling attention
to an alleged laxness in the police
department He replied :
"I have nothing to say touching

He made a similar answer when ask

A Substitute for Rubber.
Monterey, Mexico, Nov. 19 -
Preparations are being made by a

It is claimed that the substitute turn

METHODIST ATTACK
CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Bishop Goodsell Calls the
Pope a CringiDg Beggar.
Neiy York, Nov 19 -Two fierce on
slaoghts OD the church of Rome en
live oed the prooeedioga at today's ses?
sion of thc general missionary commit?
tee. On eaoh oecassioa an audience
which filled every part of the large
auditorium in St Paul's M E church,
where the oommittee is meeting, broke
into applause and no o frort was made
by the chair to check these demonstra*
tiens
The general committee, which is
composed of ail the bishops and lead?
ing divines in the methodist ?burch of
America bas been in session daily since
last Wednesday. Upon several occa?
sions during former sessions wheo ref?
erence bas been made to anything per?
taining to tbe Roman Catholic church
the same spirit of defiaoce has been ap?
parent.
The person to advance to the attack
today was Bishop Goodsell of Tennes?
see, [n the coarse of au address on
the work of the Methodist Episcopal
church io vrious parts of Europe be
had ooeasioo to speak of the work dene
io Italy aod conditions obtaioiog there.
It was io the recital of the latter that
tbe bi.1 hop used such strong language
against the Church of Rome.
Io northern Europe for instance io
Ger m s. ny and the Scandinavian couo
tries." the bishop said, we have made
satisfastory progress, though we have
a great deal of indifference and even
opposition to contend with. Statistics
show that we have made as muob
headway during the first 35 years io
Europe as we have io the same period
io-this country, which offers a more con?
genial service for our creed.
"Io southern Europe the conditions
are somewhat different. There tbe
struggle bas been harder. There are
many who doubt whether we have any
work at all ia Italy that land of so
perstit tioo aod priestcraft Whether
we coold ever hope to accomplish any?
thing there in the face of thc tremendous
press of adverse thought we are coo
fronted, with The faot is that we
sent cine of oar workers icto Italy.
He soon made up bis mind that in Rome
we had to do as do the Romans He
began by training the yoong, by tak
tog them into our schools and semi-J
caries.
"The work is :-iow bur. ita value bas j
bees recently testified to by tba poo?ff
bicjsci';. who ha-: honored us by excom?
munies ting <?7ery one, teachers and
pupils a;,.ke connected with our institu j
n. os ;>f learning Io the effort to j
preserve for himself the triple crown cf j
papacy he has issued a sweeping inter
terdict agaiust the schools and every
ono paiisiug though their gates. This,
however, bas cniy made us more de?
termined to wipe oas a eysten which
has created out of the former roan ot
the empire a oringiog beggar with a
monkey and a grind organ.''
The applause which greeted this sally
was deafening.
The next speaker threw dowo the
gauntlet to the church of Rorxe io
terms a3 direct and condemnatory as
did Bi?hcp Goodsell This was the Rev j
Dr S. W Deese, who for a number of j
years ha9 been identified with the worx j
of the Methodist Episcopal Church io
South Americr and was appointed by
[be speaker to take over the supervision
of the work among the Spanish speak
?og cations on this continent. He
said :
"A former speaker bas said that a
condition where half of the world is
pagao aod thc other half Christian
cannot endure long. The same can be
said with as much truth of a state of
affairs where christendom is divided
into two great oamps, with Protestant
ism on one side and Greek and Roman
Catholicism on the other. Tne time is
upon us wben anew the questions which
appeared tn the Protestant reformation
wili begin to agitate the world and
demaod to bs pushed lo their fina!
issue. After siumberiog for four ceo j
turie* the self same questions were j
awakened through the ?asr ac; of infamy
of the pontiff, ia declaring himself
infallible. Within 24 hours after that
blasphemous declaration had beeo
written on tbe triple crown of Rome
the Russian armies invaded Catholic
France. Forty five days lat6r the hattie
of Sodan was fought with Protestant
Prussia, the victory, aod 20 days bad
only elapsed when the united armies
entered the 'Holy City/ whore the pope
held S'vay,bringing with them oartioads
of Bibles The pope lost his temporal
power, aod since that day the creed bas
been weakening.
"The Roman church at ooe time
held nway everywhere, but now both j
that church aod Spanish domination ?
have fallen off their high pedestal* j
When Spain is arraigned (be Roman
Catho io Church should be arraigned
with that power as corespondent.
F.-or i^oce Isabella signed away the
y of Spain to tbe popo there ha?
eeo io illegitimate alliance between
statecraft and priestcraft againut human
liberty and human progress "
"Th' applause wbioh followed this
sally was as tremendous as it wa?
spootanoeos.
Dr D ?es said io conclusion that tho
most promising fi*!d among the Spaninh
speaking populations io America wat?
opening io Puerto Rico and advised tne
oommittee to spare neither expease nor
labor to oust Rome io that island

I WONDERFUL MEMORY
OF FRANK BROWN.
How the Defaulting Bank
Clerk Made Hts Large
Haul.
Cincinnati, Nov 19 -The experts
who have beeo working today with
Receiver Tacker on the books of the
German National bank, at Newport,
Ky, place the shortage of Frank M.
Brown, the missing assista ot cashier
and individual bookkeeper, at $191,
500. According to reports from
those who were with Brown when he
left last Tuesday night be had less
than $506 with him Brown's salary
was only $1,500 per year. Gases
are now cited where he spent more
than that amount in one day. His
bond was for $10,000, and it is gcod
as far as it -goes.
United States District Attorney
Hill will arrive from Paducah tomor?
row, when, it is said, criminal pro?
ceedings will begin. The federal
detectives ha-re certain persons nnder
surveillance and tbere are reports
tonight about arrests that will follow
on the arrivai of District Attorney
Hill.
During the run on the German Na?
tional bank, at Newport, last Satur?
day, $200,000 was secured in Cincin?
nati to bridge tbe trouble. This was
returned today sad Receiver Tucker
bad other moneys and papers also
transferred to Cincinnati.
Brown's system required a wonder?
ful memory The experts say he
carried in his head the figures that
enabled bim to cali off correctly a
lot of false entries in a way to throw
the clerks who were doing the
checking with bim off the track. A
depositor would put in $3,100.
Brown would enter the proper
amount of the deposit in one book
and eater it as $100 in another
He would take the difference-$3,?
000-himself. Then when it came
to checking up he would handle one
of the books, another clerk would
check and Brown would call off
Instead of calling off $100, which
appeared as the amount of the de
posit on the book which he was hand
ling, he woakl call it as $3,100, thus
making it correspond with the book
in the bands of the other clerk
He also, it is alleged, worked in
another vrr.y A depositor would
draw out $100 -Browo would make I
the proper entry in one book and 1
enter $3,100 in another. When the
depositor had his account checked
up the figures were taken from the
book in which the correct eutry had ?
been msde When the bank officials \
looked to see what amount was due ?
the depoaitor they were given their
information from the book which
showed that $3,i00 had been with- ,
drawn. Brown had memorized all .
the individual accounts and the >J
experts find no private marks of any 1
kind on the book The general 1
ledger was kept correct and balanced 1
with the cash, while the individual
ledger, it is alleged, was fixed to 6uit
Brown's purse, the former being the
one that the bank officials examined. '
It is generally beiieved that Brown's !
first shortage started accidentally
with an error of $1,000 in the indi '
vidual accounts.
The Dry Dock Inquiry.
Washington, November 18 -At
the navy department it is said that
the naval board, of which Rear
Admiral Rogers is president, detailed i
to determine the advisability of trans- 1
ferring the naval station from Port
Royal to Charleston, has practically
completed its labors and will report
in favor of the change It is under
stood that the board has concluded '
to recommend the transfer of the
naval station to Charleston on the
ground that the lattep place ef?ers :
better facilities for the execution of !
Government work.
After examining several desirable '
sites in the immediate vicinity of tbe
City of Charleston, the board, it is
understood, decided to recommend '
the selectioo of th? site on the Cooper
River, adjoining Chicora Park
Rear Admiral Rogers is now sup?
posed to be in Charleston to make an
examination of a few details bearing
upon the final report to the Secretary
of the Navy The additional surveys
ordered to be made at Port Royal 1
were to have been completed last j
night.

Minister Conger on
Chinese Situation.
Crititical Condition of Chinese
Government.
Pekin, Nov 17' via Shaogbai, Nov
i IS -The belief that the note of the
powers to the Chinese commissioners,
Prince Ching and Li Hang Chang, will
be completed soon is strengthened by
the resalte of tbe recent ioformal con?
ference of the ministers of the powers.
Mr Cooger, the United States minis?
ter, said to a correspondent of the As?
sociated Press today :
"The situation is apparently very
favorable to the early beginning of
negotiations for a preliminary settle
ment. I believe that the next meeting
of the foreign onvoys will virtually
settle ell poiots of difference between
the representatives of the powers, who
will lose no time io presenting the de?
mands. ?
"What the result will be it is impos?
sible to foretell. Events have placed
China in a very oritioal positieo
Whether &?he will be able to preservo
her iotrcgrity and to save her trade
relations with the rest of the world will
depend upon what the powers demand
io the fioai settlement and upon ber
willingness to acoept promptly the
conditions proposed
"It is quite unlikely, if not impos?
sible, that the Chinese oourt will returo
to Pekin before next spriog, but I do
not anticipate any serious delay in the
progress of tbe negotiations with the
Chinese commissioners as they are in
telegraphic communication with the
oourt "
Military operations are virtually at a
standstill. The German and Italian
expeditions northward passed through
the Nan-Kan pass unopposed.
Dispensary in Georgia,
The Georgia legislature is io a fair
way to adopt the dispensary system for
that State. The house committee on
temperance bas approved the bill for
the purpose introduced by Honorable
Seaborn Wright, and recommends its
passage.
Tbs measure proposed is similar in
many respact8 to the Scatb Carolina,
dispensary. The author of the bill says
it is "an exact copy of the dispensary
[aw now in force io the city of Athens
and the South Carolina law was
patterned after tho Athens law.

feared that the Indiaus might return

of cavalry and 50 infantrymen were
immediately started from the Juaraez
post The governor of Chihuahua j
also ordered out a force of rurales
It was first believed that the raid
era were from the San Carlos reser
vation, but this is not at all certain
and some of the officials are inclined
to the belief that the party was com
