THE POLYG'S PLEA. ABSOLUTE RESIGNATION TO THE MAN-IFESTO OF THE CHURCH. He Kejoiced that He Could Dwell Within the Church with One Wife The Gibbey Scandal on Again St ill Going Over the Koad. "I want to say a word in this prisoner's behalf," said Counsel Lochrie this morning, as a sinner of 00 stood up before Judge Zane to receive sentence for inlawful cohabita-tion. "I advised him to cuter a plea of guilty for two Teasons; one that the indict-ment was predicated on facts the other that he ceased all relations with his second wife on the issuance of Jthe manifesto. He came here thirty years aero and was givcn to understand that it was his duty as a consist-ent member of the churc h to enter the prac-tice of polygamy. Wluu the proclamation was issued he spoke with, tears in his eyes and thanked God that the time had arrived when he could dwell within the church and with one wife, and I believe ttie law would be fully satisfied with a suspension of sen-tence." "The indictment," said Judge Zane, "charges the defendant with unlawful co-habitation in that he lived with one Mary-An- n Stoker. When were you married to your first wife?" "Ten years ago," said the prisoner boldly." "Who do vou live with now?" "The first"." '?ince what time?'' "Since the proclamation." "Is it your intention to obey the law in the future ?" "It is, your honor.'' "Would polygamy be right now in that the church has repealed it?"" "It would not." "Do you understand that the churc h now forbids polygamy and unlawful cohabita-tion?" "Yes sir." "And that you are bound by it S" "Yes sir." "What means have you?" "Iv'e a couple o' hundred in my pocket?" "Well, that's honest." Laughter. "Oh, I mean to be honest." "Taking it that you are sincere, in what you have stated and what has been stated in your behalf I'll fix your fine at S2o and the cots of the prosecution." The old man reached for his roll, called for the cashier and running his trer-iblin-g ringers over the amount was soon driv:...g in the. direction of Bountiful where his aged wife awaited him." The Gibbey Scandal. The case of the people cgainst W. L. Gibbey charged with adultery was the issue before Judge Zane and the petit jury again today. . The defendant him-self was . placed on tho witness stand and told the story of his relations with the prosecution. He denied point blank that they had been otherwise than those of employee and employer or that he had ever made overtures of any kind whatever. Had made her no promises, knew nothing what-ever of the parentage of the child in question but knew she had been keeping company with Jack Bell and his brother, and that sha ran around with any of the boys. ''Why did your wife dismiss her" deman-ded counsel for the prosecution. "Because she refused to give up the habit of running around to pcep-o'-da- She told her it ahe persisted in it she would have to Iave the house and she went." "At tCHyriel Cttwuct m rrtmtMt JOUIttts took place and the case was submitted. The argnmenrs'being concluded the case was given to the jury aud a verdict of not guilty was returned. There was great re-joicing' among Mr Gibby's friends while there was a feeling of confidence throughout that the young woman guessed the man wrong as the sire. Sefrefchments for a Year. Another sinner who pleaded guilty to peculations charged in the indictment was Franklin Johnson, who got uo at dead of night, robbed his bunk mate, then a neigh-boring lodger and with the plunder took'io the Rio Grande depot where he wes over-taken while waiting for the train. Despair-ing of escape he admitted his guilt, where-upon the court sentenced to a year in the penitentiary. Johnson claims to have come to Ziou from San Francisco and is a waiter, having gone to work at Mrs. Fred Calker's on the day of his arrival in the city. There is a Beeond indictment now hanging over nis neaa. Over the Hockey Koad.

Churches are Unani-mously in Favor of Organic Xnion War and Peace" the Topic of the day Secretary Foster Speaks. Washington-- , Oct. 17. Rev. Dr. Williams of the Methodist church of Canada presided over the Ecumenical council today. Hon. Charles Foster, secretary of the treasury, made a short address. The announcement of Bishop Way-ma- of the African M. E. church that the colored churches had de-cided unanimously in favor of organic union w as received with applause. The general topic of the day w as "War and peace." The first essay on "Interna, tional Arbitration," was read by T. Snape of Liverpool. While he w as reading his ad-dress President Harrison and Secretary Noble entered the hall. Everybody in the church rose to their feet, and there was a burst of applause as the president asceuded the plat-form. He was presented to the chairman, w ho in turn introduced him to the assem-blage. Another burst of applause followed, and when they died away the president stepped forward snd 6aid: "I came here this morning to give ex-pression to my respect and esteem for this great body of delegates assembled from all the countries of the world; and much more to give the manifestation of mv respect and love for that greater body of Christian men and women "for whom "you stand." Ap-plause. ecumenical conierenee is a dis-tinct step in the direction not only of the unification of the church but of the unifica-tion of humanity. It is the natural order that the subdivisions should be wiped out before the grand divisions cf the church can be united. "You have today as a theme for discussion the subject "International Arbitration" and this being a public and enlarged use of the word perhaps makes my presence here as an officer of the United States especially Applause. "The subject is on which has long attracted attention and I think I may say has greatly attracted in; terest and adherence in the United States as that of any other christian power in the world." ' Applause. "It is known to you all that in the recent conference of the American states at Wash-ington a proposition was made and adopted by the adherents of all or nearly all the governments represented; that as applied to this hemisphere all international disputes should be settled by arbitration." (Ap-plause.) "Of course there are limitations as. yet in the nature of things to the complete consum-mation and general adoption of 6ach a schtme. It is for Christian sentiment to manifest itself in the removal forever of causes of dispute and then what remains will be of use for international arbitration. Applause. "But I did not intend to enter into the discussion of a theme for the setting forth of which you have with deliberation appointed those who have given it attention. Let me therefore 6ay 6imply this: For myself tem-porarily in place of the influence in this country and much more for the great body of its citizenship the desire of America is for peace M'ith the whole world." Great ap-plause. "It may be and is probably true that the devil is still being unchained; thai we should have our gun foundries and that we shall promote the settlementof international disputes by arbitration when it is understood Jat if the appeal is toi 6u. ether tribunal v5 It ist through this great V Aian sentiment characterized by a high IA,-J- fl justice and by a spirit of love and lies, oearance imposed on the civil institutions --ad civil governments of the world that we I shall anproaeh the best arbitration methods I of settling disnutes " ' As the president concluded and passed ont of the church the entire conference rose and applauded his remarks. , secretary Noble was introduced and made a few remarks. He was followed by Sir Julian Pauncefote, who was present but to make an address. The discussion of the subject of the day was then resumed. The following spoke upon it: Representative or of Ohio, Rev. Enoch Salt of London, Bishop Newman of Nebraska. Rev. Father Atkinson of Lon. don. T. Rrddle of Devon, Pev. Dr. Buckley of New York, J. J. McClaren of Toronto, Rev. William Arthur and Rev. John Bond of London. The conference at l'J:30 ad-journed. . m BLAINE OX THE M'KIXLEY BILL. How His Utterance Were Garbled and ' Distorted by the Democrats. Beetles, O., Oct. 17. John Hopley, esq., editor of the Bucyrus Journal, having written Secretary of State Blaine stating that the- democratic papers were parading him as an opponent of the McKinley bill, yestcrdsy eceived th': following letter from Mr. Blaine, dated Augusta, Me., October 14th: "You inform me a democratic paper in your town tnd many democratic papers through-out Ohio ksep the following paragraph standing in type: "But there is not a sec-tion or line in the McKinley bill that wili open the market for another bushel of wheat or another burrel of pork. James G. Blaine to Senator Frye, July 11, 1891. "This section is garbled and taken from its proper connection. It creates a wronir im-pression. What I did say is the following: 'I don't doubt that in many respects the tar-iff bill pending In the senate is a just meas-ure, and that most of its promises are in ac-cordance with the wise policy of protection, but there is not a section or line in the en-tire bill that will open a market for another bushel of wheat or another pound of pork.' "The letter in which this paragraph occurs was written to Senator Frye July 11, It), and tho McKinley bill did not become a law until O'tober 1st. nearly three nionthstherc-aiter- . In my letter to Senator Frye I ob-jnct-to the bill because it did not contain a reciprocity clause, which would provide a market for wheat, pork, and for othe pro-ducts of the farm and for various fabrics. Before the bill was finally passed a recip-rocity clause was inserted, and a large addi-tion was made to the free list. It will there-fore be seen, from what I said in my letter, that the objection which I made to the Mc- Kinley bill was entirely removed beforo the bill became a law. "Let me further say that the reciprocity clause has giten an ample market for many-barrel-s of flour and many pounds of pork. Brazil, some months since entered into a treaty! by which many American articles were admitted free. Flour is made free, and pork r.dmittec at a nominal duty. Cuba and Puerto Rico h ive reduced the duty on flour from fo.SO al arrel to fl; which gives us the market, besid s putting nearly a hundred orticles of An ?rican production on the free list. San Doipingo has made a reciprocity-treat- y with fl'fur and pork on the free list, besides a lar number of articles. "Other trea ies for reciprocity are in pro-gress.- Germ, uy, without negotiating a for-mal treaty, h: "removed the "prohibition on pork, and our government, in consideration thereof, has htti her sugar on the free list. This opens Wus an entirely new market,' and $15,000,00 ) to 20,000,000 of American' pork will he c inswmed per annum where not a pound has 1 'en taken for ten years. "The recip: jcity provision is proving very suecessul, esr 'ciaily in farm products, andI more particurly in the case of the two ar-ticles mentiorfcd in the paragraph quoted flour and pok lam not, therefore, an op-ponent- of tiM McKinley bill, as the demo-cratic paper Mln Ohio are constantly alleging. On the cont lry, I have always supported it ever sjUice it as perfected by the insertion of thaTccipiBoity clause." 1 bi ' THE SALE OF BELMOXTS STUD. The Most Important Sale of Thorough-breds.

The conservatives have been prematurely jubilant over having es-caped the leadership of Goschen. The mem-bers of the Cariton club review with a shock of disappointment the telegrams from Ealfour denying that he had been offered the leadership. Douglas, the conservative whip, denies that the ' premier has yet definitely offered the vacant post to any member of the cabinet. He would not say whether it had been offered to any one outside the cabinet meaning the marquis of Harrington. The truth of the position, as known to the inner official circle, is that Balfour wants Harrington to become leader, with a rever-io- of the post to himself. Be-hind Balfonr's ostensible reasons is the fact that he does not care to have his early per-iod of leadership signalized by the coming decisive defeat of the party. No one having even a casual contact with a government minister cau escape the conviction that fore-bodings of a grand disaster at the next gen-eral election fill their minds. The indecision of Salisbury is dtmaging the position of the government. THE POLICEIECORD. McGinty Overtakes a Robber Train Rob-ber Bound Over.

His Collea&ues WrpriaMMw mi - ai-- h Evacuation of .Egypt. London, Oct. 17. The comments of the oflicial organs of the French and other Eu-ropean governments on Gladstone's an-nouncing at Newcastle his intention tomove an order for the evacuation of Egypt, has awakened the liberal leaders to the prospect-ive dingers cf the declaration, and semi-official explanations have appeared putting a glos on Gladstone's words greatly at va-riance with the first general interpretation. Gladstone, it is stated, did not mean that as soon as he attained power he would discon-tinue the occupation; he would simply look for some way for bringing to a close the present provisional regime. James Briee, as the next Tberal under foreign secretary, has declared the same in a speech. All this show s that Gladstone has again been blun-dering on his foreign policy, which his col-leagues find it necessary to correct. . The Firm is all Right. New York, Oct. 17.

UIXG CON'S" FUNERAL. A Distinguished Degcendent of Confucius Throws Up the Sponge. "Ing Con," a native of the country where they grow rice and rat soup, is dead. That is to say, the name, of the Chinaman who foolishly put his foot into the heavenly elevator and was hoisted skyward is believed to be Ing Con. The reporter of The Times asked Gin Sling this afternoon for the dead, man's name, aud he was assured in all sin cerity that the dead was none other than "Ing," who was the genuine article because his name was blown into the bottle. Sling's statement was corroborated by Sky High, Long Toe and several other celestials whosa words have never been impeached, so that it is certain it must be "Ing Con" and no other, The deceased is about 44 years of age, and. has beer employed as a scullion at the Onta-rio mine for the last ten years. A few days. ' ago, so Gin Sling says, Ing was taken "belly slick" and was brought to Zion to be healed; bui the angels had a mortgage on him ani he bid adietr to suc h mundane things as tha wa?htub and the sauce pan, and is now ca. gaged in pushing clouds beyond the paling stars. The funeral that was conduc ted at Chinesa headquarters this afternoon was a grotesqu affair.and drew largely from all nationalities. The coffin was removed to the rear of the building, where the cover was taken off and the face of the dead tenant exposed to the sun. At the fool of the coffin was a dry goods box, upon which was spread a quet for the departing spirit, while a coubl row of torches blazed the way for the pas. seuger. The weird ceremony in which" all Mongolians paid tribute to the dead was con. eluded, the coffin was placed in the hearsa and removed to the cemetery, where the in. termcnt took place. . . . ! orilT3I SMUGGLING RING That has "Not llccn Initialled in Extent MiK-- the Whisky Kins of 187U.

Every woman w ho has traveled knows the inconvenience of attempting to eat lunch en route from one's lap. There is the teacup to be held, a plate, a glass of wine or water and, if one is cry elegant, a knife and fork.
