BrutaLAttacks Made onthe Hebrews v-A-' vvl in' i-3-' Odessa, Oct 8.

The unionists of Odessa continued Jlonday their attacks and outrages upon Jews. They began', by 'surrounding' the Hebrew cemetery where a funeral 'service was going on. First they stoned and then they fired a volley of shots at the mourning many of whom were wounded. The Jews fled in panic. Later in the day members of the Black Hundreds divided themselves into small groups, ransacking several Jewish shops and mercilessly beating the proprietors.

A police sergeant who attempted to Intervene was bru tally attacked, whereupon he drew his revolver and killed one of his assail ants. MEETS STORMS AND FOGS. American Liner St. Paul Has Rough Passage to Southampton. Southampton, Oct 8.

The Ameri can line steamer St Paul, which left New York September 28, steamed into this harbor Monday 24 hours late, Her voyage over is described as having been most thrilling. She en countered severe gales and mountain ous seas pounded her hull with great and washed over her decks, Having gone through this peril, the steajmer ran into dense fogs and Chief Officer Osborne, who commanded owing to the indisposition of Capt Pas- sow, had to grope his way to Ply mouth by means of the lead. When the fog finally lifted, the steamer was in Plymouth, sound. Ecuadorian Rebels Dispersed. Guayaquil, Ecuador, Oct 8.

A large band of Ecuadorian rebels has been detested by a detachment of Peruvian police near the city of Piura, Peru. The rebels had planned to in vade Ecuador, expecting heavy reinforcements after they had crossed the frontier. In the course of the fighting between the Peruvians and the rebels eight of the latter were killed and 30 were taken prisoners. Tbe rest of the band were dispersed. JAPANESE ON HIGH SEAS.

They Have Formidable Fleet In Case Of War. Since her victories in the Yellow sea and the Korean straits, as well as in Manchuria, Japan has crowded for ward by leaps and bounds, says the Broadway Magazine. Twelve powerful fighting ships and armored cruisers, captured from Russia, now fly the emblem of the rising sun. Twelve powerful fighting ships, all but one carrying four 12-inch guns, also stand; ready to form a fleet to defend aggressively her waters against an invading enemy. In course of completion this young giant of the east has two battleships of 19,000 tons each.

She is constructing four other armored cruisers equal to our battleships, and Is employing her Own shipyards to their fullest capacity. 'What this fullest capacity means was emphasized by the presence, at the Jamestown exposition, of the 000-ton Japanese cruiser Tsukuba, carrying a battery far superior to that of any American armored cruiser and equal to that of some of the biggest American battleships afloat, a vessel built of Japanese material by Japan-) ese workmen, in Japanese in one-half of the time that the United States has ever built one of its largest armored cruisers or battleships. Japan is at present employing in shipbuilding and naval construction three times the number of men at work in all our navy yards. She also has In commission 16 armor ed cruisers, 45 torpedo boat destroyers, 17 first-class torpedo boats and 13 submarines. Added to this fighting force Japan has a defensive fleet of 38 cruisers, 23 gunboats and many war craft, which, while effective as a home guard," would be of no importance in an offensive movement in foreign wa ters.

Her naval compliment Includes 3,000 officers and 30,000 men, numerically one-fourth as large as Great Britain's; about half as large, as 'France's. In this connection the interesting question Is raised, if Japan, who has attained such success in her battles at sea, has a proportion of 3,000 officers to, 30,000 men, would it not be wise to consider how the United States can -be contented with one-third less officers tos.one-thlrd more men, or slightly: over 2,000 officers to slightly under 40,000 men, which now constitutes our naval establishment? Can it be that the United States government believes that two American officers can do as good -work In the future and cover as many posts as. three Japanese officers did during the'Rus-sian with the same numerical totals of personnel involved?

Peck, Monday evening, 8 o'clock, Oct. 14. Every farmer should feel that success depends upon him.

So attend the meetings, Join the movement and assist in every effort of progress, EVANGELICAL ASSOCIATION. Change Name to Evangelical Episco- pal Association Rcommended.

Milwaukee, Oct. 7. A recommenda tion that name of the Evangelical association be changed to the "Evangel ical Episcopal church," and a recom mendation from the Washington dele- gation that the General Conference create Episcopal districts and station the Bishops therein were two Im portant changes suggested to the Quadrennial Conference of the Evan gellcal association at ZIon church this morning. tv Because of the proposed reunion with the United Evangelical churches It is not believed that either of these changes will receive favorable action. If the reunion be consummated a new name will be necessary, and the ques tion will undoubtedly be left until the question of reunion is adjusted.

The Evangelical United church have a limited term of office for their Bishops who can only be re-elected once, so that the creation 0 dioceses and the establishment of a fixed Episcopacy would only tend to separate the two bodies yet more. Another important recommendation to come before the association this morning was to reduce the representa tion in the conference. At present the ratio of representation is one to every fourteen ministers in the itineracy. As many members of the Iteneracy are not actively in the work it is proposed to reduce the ratio to one delegate to every effective minister This recommendation comes from Minnesota. Bishop Breyfogel submitted a rec ommendation for the creation of a commission to determine what part of the' discipline Shall be considered as the Constitution of the association, and to ascertain the laws concerning church property in the several States and countries where the association has churches.

A Committee on Judiciary was ap pointed Dy the Board of Bishops. A total church membership of 437, a Sunday school membership of 165,025 children in 2,232 Sunday schools, and a total property, valua tion of were encouraging Items In the report made by Rev. William Yost, the church Statistician. Mr. Tost, who is also Treasurer of the as sociation's Orphan asylum at Flat Rock, reported receipts of during the quadrenniunu.

Rev. Christian Staevler, General Sec retary of the Toung People's Alliance, reported a membership of 40,201, a gain of 4,530 in the paBt four, years. The Alliance has raised for all purposes during that period 155,000, of which $20,000 was devoted to missions. The appointment of a Field Secretary for Sunday school young people's work was.recommended.,,.. The Lay members of the conference have presented a preliminary petition, asking that their representation in the body be made equal In numbers to that of the clergy, At.

the present time the laity have a representation of one dele gate to 7,000 members, -while the clergy's representation is one delegate for each 1,300 members. A recommendation to increase the salaries of Bishops will be presented to the conference during the week. Bishops now receive 12,000 a year and expenses. Tbe question of extending the terms of office of Bishops cannot be decided within a year, as, if the recommendation be reported favorably, will bave tp 4be act4 upon by the Annual Conferences. CHARGED "MORE FOR LUBRICAT ING OIL BUT GOT CONTRACTS RIVALS HAD NO CHANCE Manager i of Competing i Company Testifies in the Hearing of the r' Federal Suit for Dls solution.

New Tork, Oct 8. Testimony that railroads purchased their lubricating oils from the Standard Oil company at prices that went higher than those of its competitors' was heard Monday In the federal for the dissolution of the 8cwjalled oil trust Philip Harrison, manager of the New York Lubricating "Oil company, wihcb has engaged in long strife with the Standard the lubricating oil industry, was on the witness stand all day and testified that though the products of his company proved satis factory to the railroads, and were sold at prices under the Standard's figures, tbe railroads declined to renew their contracts with the New York Lubri eating X)il company. Mr. Harrison said he was never openly told by the railroad official why. the contracts were not entered Into again, but he had a well defined Idea of the cause.

Standard Grabbed the Business, The New York Lubricating Oil com pany entered into a contract in 1903 to supply the Louisville Nashville railway for a period of two years, said Mr. Harrison, and six months before the contract expired President Milton Smith, of the railroad, Informed the oil company that it need not endeavor to obtain a renewal of the contract Mr, Harrison testified that he had in formed President Smith that If he wafe permitted to bid for the business he was prepared to reduce the price of engine oil from the current contract price. Notwithstanding the fact that Presi dent Smith had praised the quality of the oil and that it was offered at a lower price than that asked by the Standard, Mr. Harrison said, the Lou isville Nashville railway entered into a contract with the Galena Signal Oil company, a subsidiary of the oil combine. Cost the Railway $30,000 More.

Mr. Kellogg, counsel for the govern ment, showed the witness the contract entered into by the Louisville Nashville and the Galena company after the railroad's contract with the New York Lubricating company had expired, and Mr. Harrison said that the figures showed that the railroad paid $30,000 a year more for its oil to the Standard than it would have paid under a con tract with the New York company. Mr. Harrison testified that the Cen tral Railway of Georgia had purchased its oil from his company and that it had been satisfactory.

The Standard obtained the business, the "witness said, notwithstanding the fact that the oil combine charged a higher price than the New York Lubricating Oil company charged.
