The Kew York Presbyterians have declared in favor of revision. Tbe Presbytery met in the lecture room of the Scotch Church, in West Fourteenth street New York City, to consider what answer should be returned to the General Assembly's questions in regard to a revision of tbe Westminster Confession of Faith.

The afternoon and evening were spent in discussion, and at 9:30 p. m. the following resolution, offered by the Rev. Dr. Thomas S.

Hastings, was adopted by a vote of 67 to 15: "WHEBEAB, The General Assembly ha overturn! this Presbytery the following questions: First, Do yon desire a revision of the Confession of Faith? Second, If so, in what respect and to what extent Therefore, "Resolved, That this Presbytery answers the first question in the affirmative, understanding tbe word revision to be used broadly as comprehending any confessional changes." In regard to tbe second question, Dr. Crosby moved that the Moderator appoint a committee of 10, to report at a special meeting of tbe Presbytery on the first Monday in December at 3 p. m. This resolution was adopted. The sentiment of the Presbytery was not only overwhelmingly in favor of revision, but several of the members spoke so ferventr ly in denunciation of the old Confession Faith as to shock the strictly orthodox minority.

An expression used by many of the speakers was that '-the Presbyterian Church is in need of a doctrinal statement which can be used and which can be understood." The doctrines of irrevocable predestination and infant damnation were repudiated. One speaker compared the Westminister confession to an anaconda which holds the church in its holds and frightens away the members of other denominations. Dr. Paxton said: "A man who could preach some of the articles of our faith would not be a contemporary of the nineteenth oeutnry. He must have walked out of tbe seventeenth century.

He would be a not of the fittest. We cannot breathe with Abraham's longs. We cannot look at God through Calvin's eyes. Calvin looked at God and saw nothing but hia terrible sovereignty. We see that his name is Love." Many of the speakers declared that the church neads a new creed a brief, comprehensive ste ement, containing only what Presbyterians hold it necessary to believe.

The Revs. Drs. Henry, M. Field, Philip Behalf; Howard Crosby. John H.

Paxton, J. Van Dyke, Richard Harlan and Samuel D. Bouchard were among those who voted in favor of revision. SHOT BY THEIR PRISONERS. BUWDT WOBK EIGHT SHACKLED AFACHB MABYLANI).

Cleveland's plurality in The Republicans gain half a dozen Legislators, buttiae Democrats will have both Booses by an majority. Tbe ticket was withdrawn early in the i and the Democrate elected the following officers without opposition: Governor, J. M.

Stone; Lieutenant 'Sheriff Reynolds, W. A. Holmes and Eugene Middleton, while taking eight Apache Indians and one Mexican to Yuma Penitentiary were killed by their prisoners four milee from Riverside, Ariz. It happened at 6 o'clock and before daylight The prison- en wcw being walked up a heavy sand- wasfa. The sheriff had removed toe shackles faun UK legs of six of the Indians before they started to walk np the grade, but they were handcuffed together by the wrists in sets of two, their other hands being free, Sheriff Reynolds was in front of the column and Deputy Holmes and the Mexican prisoner was in the rear of the column.

At signal from one of the Indians the Sheriff was seized by the two immediately back of him, while the two Indians immediately in front of the deputy wheeled about and secured his gun, with which, after killing him, they shot the Sheriff, who was being held by their companions. During the melee the Mexican prisoner ran forward to the stage, which was about 40 yards to the front, and warned the driver, Middleton. The latter drew his pistol, but was ehot twice by the Indians, the first bullet ranging toward the top of bis head, the other passing through the lower part of his face. After securing the keys to the shackles and removing them, the Indians mutilate! the body of Reynolds, crushing in his skull in a horrible manner. Then they disappeared.

Middleton, after recovering walked back to Riverside and gave the alarm. The Mexican prisoner, after he had warned Middleton, raa toward the hills. He was fired at several times, but not hit. After the Indians had left he secured a horse, rode to Florence and gave himself up. Troops have been ordered out from Apache, San Carlos, Ft McDowell and Lowell to intercept the murderers if possible.

SHORTENING THE ROUTE. STEAMSHIP PA86EKGEBS LANDED AT MILLFOED HAVEN. Great interest bas been excited in ship- pine circles, both in this country and in England, by the call recently made at Milford Haven by the steamship City of Rome on her Lite passage out from New York, when she discharged her passenger there instead of at Liverpool. Milford is a port in Wales, on the extreme western point. London is 235 miles from Milford Haven, on a direct line east, and Liverpool, to the northwest of London, is much further from the big city.

For a whole generation the advantages of Milford Haven as a'stopping place for the trana-Atlantic steamships have been pointed out, but this the first time that the port has really been utilized for passenger traffic by a big steamship line. It is believed that theMilfort Haven route can be made in from 18 to 84 boors leas than by way of Liverpool from New York. Many of the steamship men say that nothing can prevent Milford Haven from becoming the great landing and departure between Europe and the United BUtea. Governor, M. M.

A similar break occurred there on Saturday night and considerable slog was forced out, but the break was repaired in the morning. John Snider was placed in charge of a force of laborers to remove the slog, and while removing a heavy piece over the spot where the break had occurred it again burst forth. Those burned to death are: JOHN SNIDER.

Harvey Bonn was caught by the while in the elevator and burned to Elarvey Beck was caught on the first land- ng, above tbe break, and his body burned black. He was identified by his watch, which stopped at 5 o'clock, and his pocket knife.

Benseville Eck jumped from the elevator and rolled down over the casting- house and fell into the pit His clothing was burnt off his body, but he walked to the office and died while being taken home. William Snider was found in the slog, with his arms and legs burnt off, while bis body remained above the molten metaL Several more bodies have been removed, but they cannot be recognized. An alarm of fire was sounded and the city engines went into service, throwing water the slog so as to cool it off, allowing the men to go to work at recovering the bodies. There was intense excitement among the teveral hundred women who came rushing Vo ascertain whether their men were safe. The dead so far as recovered were placed in the office at the works, while the injured were conveyed to their homes.

The excitement is great and the work will be continued all night. CONDITION OF TRADE. OTK CO. mmiSH EXCOtraAGISG EXPORTS Of THE COCNTBY'S FINANCES. R.

G. Dun Weekly Review of Trade says: Money has been working closer during the past week, falling to 4 per cent last Saturday, but then rising steadily to 9 even more being paid in some The foreign situation has not essentially changed, the Bank of England having gained $1,643,000 for the week, while the Bank of France lost 1580,000. The exports for four weeks at New York have exceeded last year's by 13.6 per cent, but an enormous increase in cotto i exports does not there appear; the increase in imports here has been about 6.5 per cent, for the month. The volume of business continues very large, though signs of a reaction begin to appear at some of tbe larger centers of distribution. Thus the gain of 9J per cent in exchanges lit New York last week was dm to stock operations, and the clearings at Boston fell below last year's again, and at Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago together the increase was but 2.4 per cent, but at all other points together it was over 10 pei cent.

While the Treasury has paid out about $1,503,033 more than it has taken in- since last week, the supply at interior markets does not seem as satisfactory. Liquids tion in trust stocks continues, particularly in Cotton Oil, which has been heavily sold at a severe decline. Speculation in bread has advanced wheat li, and corn 2i cents on sales of 25 and 10,000,000 bushels respectively. Oil has advanced cents, oats and cotton notwithstanding port receipts continue larger than last year, both receipts and exports grain of 40,000 baled the week. Coffee has declined a quarter upon larger crop estimates from Brazil.

The sugar market is only nominal. Coal has been stiffened by cooler weather, but still sells about 40c below circular prices. Wool moves more actively. The goods trade does nc.t improve as to prices, but has a more hopeful look. Iron and steel in all forms are in great demand and firmly held, but the feeling is expressed that the improvement has been too rapid to be maintained, and some reaction is deemed possible.

The accounts from other cities are unusually encouraging. Boston finds wool more active. Philadelphia notes great activity in iron and steel. Chicago reports money becoming tighter, because of country demands. At Pittsburgh window glass has been advanced 10 per cent and a rise in coal is expected: iron products are firm.

At other points trade is full and active lor the season. The outlook continues good, though ot some points the monetary situation is for the time not entirely satisfactory. THE TWO DAKDTA8.

As in the Feekes caw, the deadly current carried to its victims through a telephone wire. A big pole, carrying numberless wins, itands on Fourth avenue near the corner of Twenty-eighth street. One of the wires, telephone line, fell to the street and formed loop across the down track of the Fourth Avenue Railroad.

Soon after it fell Thomas Whelau, driver of a Herald delivery wagon, came along. The horse, stepped on the apparently harmless wire, came to a halt and then sprang aside and fell. The jolt to the vehicle threw Whelan to the street, and when he arose he received a shock which threw him prostrate into the gutter. Regaining his feet again, the driver undertook to raise the horse, but as soon as be touched tbe animal another shock passed through him. He then comprehended tbe cause and lay still.

Citizens attracted to the scene noticed flashes of blue flame emitting from the prostrate animal. The flashes came from all parts of the horse's body and the smell of burning flesh was perceptible half a block away. Whelan was assisted to bis feet, but the horse was given a wide berth. A man ran to tbe Thirty-fifth street Police Station and reported the matter, and Sergeant acdonald and Roundsman Cassidy hurried to the scene. They saw the animal still emitting sparks of fire, and, calling out all the reserves, a guard was established at points sufficiently far from the roasting uumal to warn all wayfarers from nearing the fatal spot Sergeant Macdonald undertook to find the deadly wire, and in making i turn around the wagon he came in iact with it in the darkness.

The wire struck him in the forehead ind he fell to the pavement senseless, as though he had been shot. Roundsman Cossidy went to the rescue of his itricken commander and when he caught hold of the Sergeant's leg he received ihock which compelled him to release his nold. A second effort was more successful uid soon after being carried to the sidewalk the Sergeant slowly recovered bis senses. Bis head was covered with blood, and above his brow was the imprint of the wire, while beside it was a gash evidently occasioned by ihe fall. He was dazed and almost helpless, that he was obliged to go home.

About five o'clock, up to which time the none continued to roast, it occurred to some jne to sen to the Manhattan Electric Company's shop, in West Twenty-fifth street. Foreman Knight and two linemen visited the scene, wearing boots and gloves, and found the dead wire on the end of which the horse's body lay. They pulled it down from the pole, and travel was resumed after the horse was dragged off the track. A deep furrow was burned in the animal's back, Efforts made to find the point where the wire crossed the electric transmitter were of no avail. THE CRONIN TRIAL.

SHBEE COWBOYS MEET DEATH IK THE BLIZZABD OF THE YEAR. One of the results of the terrible blizzard which swept over Eastern Colorado and Northern New Mexico Thursday and Friday of last week. Thursday night Henry Miller, the range foreman for Colonel G. Head, with several cowboys, camped near Sierra Grande with 1,800 beef cattle, which they were holding for tbe purpose of loading in cars. At 4 o'clock that morning a buzzard from the Northwest struck the herd, driving the cattle toward Pan Handle, Texas, the cowboys being unable to hold them.

The snow was so blinding that it made it impossible to see fifty feet ahead and the men became separated. Friday night one of them wandered into Head's home ranch, half dead with cold and hunger. He told his story, and a rescuing party was immediately sent out and at noon the frozen bodies of Henry Miller, Joe Martin and Charles Jolly were found lying on the open plains no, tr from Folsom. The other men succeeded in finding their way into camp befo being overcome with cold. Miller has been foreman for Colonel Head for 12 years.

BIT ON GOLD BRICKS. William Trafford, a wealthy farmer of Posey county, was swindled out of $5,000 in cash by gold-brick swindlers. About a month ago a stranger called on Mr. Trafford, and after satisfying him that he was distant relative he revealed a scheme whereby each could make 15,000, The stranger knew a man who had some gold bricks really worth 20,000, but ie would selUthem for $10,000, not knowing the value of them. Mr.

Trafford drew $5,000 from bank and and went to Evansville with his new newfound relative, where his confederate was with the bricks, and where they were assayed by a pretended government official. self-styled government official was delighted and enthusiastic over the beauties. Both Trafford and his relative paid over $10,000 and took the bricks, but before48 hours both bricks and relative were gone. Trafford received a note advising him to take no trouble to look for his friend, as he was far beyond bis reach. FIGHTING THE AFRICANS.

Judge McConneu's court, in which the Cronin trial is in progress, was called to order nearly half an hour later than usual Thursday morning.

Sheriff Matson stated that he had not yet been able to serve the attachment issued for the arrest of Edward SpeUman, of Peoria, the district officer of the Clan-na-Gael. "The Sheriff of Peona," said Mr. Matoon, "telegraphs me that Mr. Spellman cannot be found." Judge expressed the opinion that the State could get along vary well without him. Patrick McGarry, who occupied the chair at the time of the adjournment, was the first witness.

Mr. Donahue, of counsel for the defense, moved to strike out all that part of McGarry's evidence, given Wednesday, in which McGarry described his visit to the house of defendant O'Sullivan, after Dr. Cronin's murder, and at which time he questioned O'Snllivan closely about his contract with Cronin. Keilly testified that in the latter part of March, Coughlin, O'Sullivan and others were in tbe saloon and were talking politics, when Coughlin said that a certain North Side Catholic, was talking too much, and that if he didn't keep his mouth shut he would get the worst of it THE BLOODY TBTTKK IK COURT. The bloody-stained trunk was brought into court Thursday, and when it appeared all the prisoners charged with the murder of Dr.

Cronin paled perceptibly and acted in a nervous manner, while everyone in the crowded court room learned foward to the receptacle that once held the remains of the murdered man. The trunk waa brought in while N. P. Halfield, salesman for A. H.

Revell Co. was on the stand. Before Halfield's examination commenced the attorneys had a dispute about the admissibility of some of the testimony of yesterday, and the question was held open by the Judge. And prior to the introduction of the trunk there was another sensation. George ReiJly, a barkeeper, testified that shortly before the murder he saw O'Sullivan, Coughlin, ex-detective Mike Whalen, and several others in a saloon.

Politics were under discussion, and Coughlin remarked that a North Side Catholic was talking too much, and that he would get the worst of it James Quinn, a hatter, corroborated Reilly. Then N. P. Halfield took the stand. He told the story of the mysterious stranger who had lied at the store on February 18, and purchased a cheap chamber suite, a rocking chair, some cheap carpets, a trunk, bedding and other house furnishing goods.

He gave his name as J. B. Simonds, and was about 5 feet 6 inches higb, full faee.nose Inclined to be Roman, dark complexioned, dark moustache. Next day be came in and paid for the goods, the amount being $45.50. He had a big roll of money.

The goods were ordered sent to 117 Clark street, rooms 14 and 15. He said he wanted the furniture for temporary use. Witness went on to say that he had seen the same furniture again in the Carlson cottage. At this juncture a bailiff brought in the trunk and Mr. Halfield examined it carefully, and said it was identical in every respect with the trunk that he sold "Simonds." DAMAGING TESTIHOST.

At the afternoon session John W. Sampson, better known as "Major," was called for the State He testified that, accompanied by a young man named William Lynn, he went to see Dan Coughlin about two years ago. Tbe witness went at the request of John C. Garrity. When he met Coigr'-n the latter greeted him cordially, and said: "I would like very well to have you meet Dr.

Cronin some night and give him a good, big him." The witness was not inclined to carry out Conghlin's wish, but promised to confer with him further on the following night He never met Coughlin after that. Under a severe cross examination by torney Forrest, the witness admitted himself to be a gambler, a passer of counterfeit money, a robber, a shell-worker and experienced in most every form of crime except murder; that he had been arrested many times and spent more or less time in jails and houses of correction. Win. Lynn, a pal of Sampson's, was called to the stand. His testimony consisted of a corroboration of the meeting between Sampson and Coughlin, at which requested Sampson to Dr.

Cronin. William O'Keefe, Dr. Cronin's tailor and a member of Clan-na-Gael Camp 250, was called to testify to a conversation had between Suspect Beggs and himself. He said that Beggs had told him that Dr. Cronin wastaota fit man to be on the committee that investigated Alexander Sullivan.

The witness asked why, and Beggs replied that Cronin vas neither a patriot nor an honest member of the Brotherhood. To prove Mi statement Beggs said that Cronin had gotten Coughlin into the camp without iniating him. Witness was asked if he had investigated the charge made by Beggs, and if the charge was true. Forrest objected, but not before witness had said he had made the investigation and found it false. His testimony was unshaken in cross-examination.

Edward G. Throckmorton, who, as the representative of Knight Marshall, rented tbe rooms at 117 South Clark street toJ. B. Simonds, was then sworn and told of how Simonds called at his office on February and said he wanted the room for a brother who was coming from the East to have his eyes treated. Witness gave a personal description of Simonds, which corresponded with that given bj witness Halfield.

Court then adjourned. Therj was apositiveidentincation of one. ot the defendants in the Cronin case Friday. A young woman, Annie Carlson, testified that she was present when a young man called to rent the cottage in which the murder is alleged to have been commuted; that he gave the name of Frank Williams and said bis sister would keep house for him. When asked whether sbe saw that person in the coort- room she replied: "Yes; there be duectly to Martin Burke, Saturday Martin Burke, the man who ia alleged to have rented the Carlson cottage, was further identified by Charles Carbon.
