Rev. J. S. J. McConneil opened the big meeting with an appeal for divine guidance, and Bishop Foss prayed for the penitents.

"The sermon was preached by Rev. Dr. C. H. Stocking, of St.

Joseph. au eloquent speaker, who chose for his text St. Luke, 14th chapter, 17th verse: "Coiue, for ail tbiugs are ready." He told how faith would snve, and said that so many sermons fell fiat and such feeling songs entered into deaf cars because of the resistance made in the heart against the coming of a religious seutimeut. While many had professed their faith in Christ, still countless thousands remained to be brought to a realization of his saving grace. At the conclusion of his sermon Rev.

Dr. Boswell spoke, and while the choir sang "Almost Persuaded" many came forward and gave their hearts to God in prayer. The speaker continued his exhortation, and still the penitents crowded forward until twentv-five knelt in front of the platform. A song of praise was sung and prayer was offered for fortv. who sent their numes to the clergymen.

'This evening Rev. Dr. J. H. Lippincott will preach.

Wot for New York. From the New York World. The Superintendent of the Philadelphia Public Schools is working to establish smnli libraries of selected books In every school house In that city. New York, however, will have to postpone everything of that kind until It finds reformers with a brand of reform that will mean more school houses. The Olives Not valued.

No Nearer Arriving at Aay Conclusion in Regard to the Big Mill. Hot Springs. October 24. Accord Ing to President Babcock, of the Athletic Association, the statutes are now clearer than at any time since Corbetfs arrest. A misdemeanor under the laws of this State is punishable only by a fine of $1,000 to $1,500 without imprisonment, and in the case or a fight only the principals are subject to arrest.

Interference on the part of the Governor is also prevented by the decision, which knocks In the head his Excellency's interpre tation of the law of 1838, concerning the suppression of riotous assemblages. The champion was absolutely released from the custody of the Sheriff after Chancellor Leatherman's decision, and was not required to even find bonds for his appearance. In the opinion of several members of the local bar he cannot even under the decision be again arrested for conspiring to commit a breach of the peace. The future of the situation, so far as the legal point of view Is concerned, rests en tirely with State Attorney Teagne. If he is inclined to delav setting the legal machinery in motion until the two men have met in the ring, that is his prerogative.

On the other hand, if he is inclined to avail himself of the technical points pertaining to his office, he can give Corbett as well as Fitzsimraons, should the Infter set foot in the boundary of Garland county, more trouble and annoyance than the champion has yet encountered. Joe Vendlg, when made acquainted with the action of the court, sain that In his judgment the club could make no further effort to bring off the fight. The club will be out about $24,000. Martin Julian, however, regards the situation. with equanimity and said last night: "I have the guarantee of the city of Hot Springs, signed by Mayor Waters, that if Fltsssinimona is brought here he'shall not be molested.

If he is alive nothing on earth shall prevent my having him In this city on Thursday next, provided that Corbett has not sneaked away In the meantime. I shall send him word that Fitzslnimons is at the hotel and dpslres him to come down and arrange for a meeting in private, provided, of course, that the Florida Club cannot bring the thing off. Should Corbett fail to respond, then I will take Fitzslnimons out to his training quarters. Let me snv that within the past twelve hours I have learned two facts that can be substantiated one is that the Florida Club desires the postponement to November 11 because it had not been able to make up its purse of $41,000, and the other, on the authority of a physician of this town, that Corbett's physical condition is bad. Here are two good reasons why they don't want to fight us on the date agreed upon." The questlou as to whether Corbett and Fitzsiramons will actually meet 011 Arkansas soil remains in statu quo until the return of Martin Julian, who left tills morning for Corpus Christ! and will be back on Sunday.

So far as the citizens' committee Is concerned, It does not consider the agony over by any means, and the fact that at midnight Julian wired to his brother-in-law asking if John Colwell, of Boston, one of the men mimed by Brady, would he satisfactory as mm ne is or tnc same mind. That Fitzsimmons will be here on Ihnrsday of next week there is no doubt. Whether Corbett will remain depends upon Whether hlS Will nOWCr is Mtronrrr thnn 1 1, a of Brady. The latter wants him to give the requisite peace bond and go East and even went so far yesterday afternoon as to tell the trainers to pack ami ordered exnress wagons l.nt Corbett declared that he would not leave the county until Fitzslnimons' arrival, no matter If he hail to stay In the empty house. The fo owinc Is the last Mr.

say about the fight: "I gave to every newspaper reporter last night my final proposition in order to make a ngui possioie, naming ten reputable, unbiased men for referee, clvine until noon to-day to agree to one of them or suggest others. Julian left here this morning unceremoniously, without arranging anything. I further said I would wait until noon to-morrow. Frldav. for him to lonnuit $10,000 with any reputable man, in order to mane nis ooasts good, claiming that nothing further could, be done without his side stake or a referee.

I will wait until noon tomorrow, and Fitzslmmons not accepting mv fair proposition, I shall leave for New York at 3 P. and pay no further attention to Hzsimmons, James J. Coruett. To this dlsnateh the fnllowlller renlv wau made: To James .1. Corbett.

Hot SnHn(. According to conditions governing belt its disposition goes with decision of referee. in aoseiiee or reteree it depends upon iinal disposition of stake money. If, after October 31. Stakeholder Dwycr acknowledges your claim to Fitzslnimons' stake money, belt will be awarded to you.

The declaration by club that match is off is not a factor to agreement between you and Fitzslnimons. If no light October 31 articles of agreement are nuiillied. If yon announce vour retirement as champion, we will offer belt for competition by Maher and O'Donnell or any other challengers." ROSE LISTENED TO THE PRINCE The Withdrawal of thj Challengs Due to the Influence of Wales. London, October 24. Mr.

Rose's action in withdrawing his challenge, the Associated Press learns, was due chiefly to the Prince of Wales, who spoke to Mr. Rose on the subject when they met at Newmarket Tuesday last. The Pall Mall Gazette, commenting this afternoon upon the action of Mr. Charles D. Rose in withdrawing his challenge for the America's cup, remarks: "Mr.

Rose has done right in withdrawing. Had he won the cup It would forever have lost the International signilicnnce which now attaches to It. If the cup Is to retain significance In the eyes of English yachtsmen. It must be sailed for, as Lord Dun-raven demands, over an unobstructed course. md Liunraven has unquestionably the flrwt usui to a uiaicu unuer sucn comli- The Globe says: "There is little likelihood of another British challenger entering tlie lists for a race in 190.

Lord rmnraveu cor-tflinly will not do so until a course Is provided where the competitors will have fai" Ploy-" Captain Bull on tho Coach Question. Captain Bull, of the University crew, in speaking of the rowing situation at the University, said yesterday: "I have no idea what the committee will do regarding the choice of a new coach. I am personally strongly opposed to any change of stroke, believing thoroughly In the efficiency of last year's stroke. Moreover, I think it eminently foolish to throw awiiv the benefits derived by the coaching of a freshman crew last year and by the development of 'Varsity crews for five years past along the present lines by any change, particularly when that change moans certain defeat. As to the merits or demerits of pariieular coaches I do not care to say anything.

There has been no statement made In last year's crew as a body to the effect that thev will not agfltn row under a new stroke, but I can say that each individual member has so stated his Intention." 1 Shooting for Comity Championships. Special Telegram to The Times. Shamokin, October' 24. During the second quarterly tournament of the Shamokiu Gun Club, held at Indian Park to-day, John H.

Baltimore, October 24. Darkness stopped the big shooting match for the Dupoiit trophy and the championship of the world to-day, after each of the contestants had shot at eleven birds. It will be finished tomorrow. Eleven of the shooters have killed straight birds thus far, aud the match promises to be worthy of the big stakes the men are contending for. The match is being shot off at the grounds of the Baltimore Shooting Association, and a large crowd, which included many ladies, was there to see the sport.

The hour fixed for the beginning of the event was 10 o'clock, but It was almost noon when the first marksman took his place In front of the traps. The birds were a weil selected and unusually strong lot of blue rocks, and the atmospheric conditions were such as to make them hard to hit. Captain Brewer, who is the favorite in the betting, shot in magnificent form, nnd luck was clearly with him, for one of his birds fell clearly out of bounds, but was retrieved before the referees got thier eyes on it. Ful-forrt, on the other hand, missed three, and is considered out of it for first or second money. Yale Dolan, of Philadelphia, who is shooting under the name of "Ashbrook," got but nine out of the eleven, but Maealester.

his fellow-citizen, who shoots as "Hayward," has killed eleven straight The result of to-day's shooting in the trophy contest is as follows: Yds.H.M I Yds.H.M E. Brown 21 9 2' II. Gilbprt 27 11 0 J. Timnions 27 8 2 W. Kbimn 25 10 1 H.

This was a mistake, as tbe freshman team's captain, Mr. Lucas, rorroitea tne game to 'B7, he not having a full team. A foot-ball game between the Logan Athletic Association, of Germantown, and the Conshohocken Pioneer Corps, of Consho-bocken, will be played at Stenton Field, Wayne Junction, on next Saturday, October at 6.6V ClOCK. Captain Williams expects the game to be a very close one, and believes that It will prove the best game of the college season hi tills city. Lafayette certainly has a strong team.

Rhinehart and Barclay are well-known players. Yesterday afternoon the men practiced at Association foot-ball to limber them up for Saturday's game. George Brooke played with them, but sliffhtly hurt his shoulder and retired. This afternoon light work will be done so that the men may be thoroughly rested before meeting Lafayette. The 'Varsity eleven returned from Pittsburg yesterday morning much disgusted with their trip.

On the Journey to and fro the men bad slept poorly on the train and were yesterday In wretched condition. Their work against Duquesne was slower than any exhibition they had given this year, while no less than four touch-downs were lost by wretched fumbling. The Manz, formerly Philadelphia professionals, and the Athletics, holders of tbe George W. Childs cup and championship of Pennsylvania, will play a game of Association foot-ball at Wayne Junction, Saturday afternoon. Both teams are well-known in this city, and will undoubtedly draw a big crowd to witness what will likely prove a fast and interesting game of the dribbling code.

STRONG RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED The Second Day's Session of the National Association a Spirited OneThe Action of the New York Conference Condemning Rebates Upheld and a Resolution Was Passed Providing for a Committee to Look Into the Evil Officers Will be Elected To-Day and the Proceeding Will Close With a Grand Banqnet at the Continental. The second day's session of the sixth annual convention of the National Association of Life Underwriters opened spiritedly yesterday morning in the drawing room of the New Century Club. The first business dono was the reading of a paper by Emory Mc-Clintock, actuary of the Mutual Life Insurance Company of New. York. Its subject was "The Advantages of the Endowment Fund," and during Its reading the speaker had the undivided attention of hs audience.

It was a strong indorsement of the endowment fund in conjunction with life insurance. When Mr. McClnitock hadfinished. Dele- ffate Simon Wolf, from Washington, D. made a strong plea for the holding of the nex; invention at the national capital, 1 after wnit-u Joseph Ashbrook made a motion mm one ueiegare rrom eacn 01 tne lorty districts in the United States represented in the convention be selected as a nominating committee to choose the candidates for the new officers to be elected to-day.

The convention had the pleasure of listening to an address from John K. Stearns, president, of the Life Underwriters' Association, of Chicago. It was his first chance to appear before the convention, owing to illness, and special mention was made of this fact by President Pluinmer. Then adjournment was had for lunch. REBATE POLICY CONDEMNED.

When the delegates reassembled in the afternoon Major B. S. Calef, of Boston, submitted a resolution which called for the Indorsement of the pledge as drawn up by Major George 8. Merrill, Commissioner of Massachusetts, and signed by the different insurance presidents and ofhemls at tbe meeting lately held In New York city on the question of rebates. Nearly all present thought that stringent measures should be taken to abolish the practice, but the question which confronted them was to decide upon the most practical and efficient means to accomplish that end.

Many were in favor of adopting measures to suppress the evil at all hazards, while a few, mostly the Boston delegation, were more conservative, and suggested moving slowly. The subject was warmly discussed by both factions, and finally a vote was taken on the adoption of the The dissenting parties were greatly in the minority and refused to 011 the question, and amid much applause It was carried unanimously. Mr. Biodgett, of the New York Equitable, then proposed three cheers for the presidents of the companies who signed Major Merrill's compact at New York, which was followed by three more cheers and a tiger for Major Merrill himself. The convention then buckled down to the consideration of a resolution presented by James V.

Harris, of Texas, strongly condemning the rebate practice and providing "that this association appoint a committee of three empowered and instructed to confer with the executive officers of the life insurance companies, with the view of bringing about the introduction of a specific clause or provision hi their policy contracts, and that said committee be further instructed to report to the executive committee of this association, as soon as may be convenient, the result of their negotiations." The matter, after much discussion, was referred to the executive committee for consideration. NEXT CONVENTION AT WASHINGTON. Last ycyr Major Calef, the New- England manager of the Manhattan Life Insurance Company, offered a splendid silver loving cup as a prize for an essay on "What Life Under writers' Associations Have Accomplished for the licnelit of Companies, the Agents and the Public." A number of contestants sent in papers to the committee on award, which consisted of Joseph Ashbrook, of the Provident Life of this city; Henry C. Avrcs and H. L.

Sheppard. After carefully examining all the essays the cup was awarded to C. W. Van Tuyl. of Minneapolis, a member of the Minneapolis Association.

The reading of the prize essay and the presentation of the Calef Loving Cup were postponed until tiie meeting this morning. Then followed a warm discussion as to where the next convention should he held. Washington, D. was so strongly ui-Red, the delegates from there promising the best of treatment aud accommodation, that it was finally selected. The committee to select nominees for the vnrlous ottices to be filled met in executive session at the Continental Hotel last night but the result of their work will not be made until to-day's gathering.

The convention will end with a grand banquet to-night at the Continental Hotel, at which many distinguished persons will be present. MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM Mr. Daly's Artistic and Beautiful Production of Shakespeare's Poetic Comedy. Augustin Daly's artistic taste and skill are finely shown in the beautiful production of A Midsummer Mght Dream," which was enjoyed by a very large audience at the Chestnut Street Opera House last evening. Mr.

Daly had scarcely done justice to himself in the earlier performances of the week, but in this one all his poetical appreciation and all his thoroughness In stage work were again apparent and found ready recognition from the pubiic. We have had more elaborate productions of this fairy comedy, but none more delicate or complete. It is not pitched on a hig'-i key. The pictorial coloring is rather subdued, the action quiet, the fairy music dainty and refined. Even the low comedy element, though broadly treated in tbe play scene, is not dlsoordant, so that the whole exquisite conception, with its humor, its passion, Its delicate fantasy, is unfolded with marvelous harmony.

What Is not least important; the lines so often familiar, so rich in imaginative beauty are spoken by every member of the company with an intelligence and clearness of interpretation that make it a delight to listen to them. The cast of the four leading parts Miss Rehan as Helena, and Miss Elliot as Her-mla, Mr. Craig as Lysander, and Mr. Worthing as Demetrius Is remarkably well balanced, and their performance consistent with the prevaliug spirit of the ensemble. Miss Carlisle is Oberon, Miss Haswell Ti-tania and Miss Swain Puck, all pretty women with pleasant voices, and there is a crowd of fairies that sing and flit about among the dusky woods, with glow-worm lights that give a pretty effect in the fascinating picture.

The clowns are admirably presented, led by James Lewis, whose isottom is as gooa a piece or nonest ana varied humor as this sterling comedian has ever done, and the sollder parts are firmly filled by George Clarke and other members or a strong and loyal company. The whole performance Is thoroughly artistic and delightful, and with its wide variety and entire harmony presents a very rare occasion of really intellectual enjoyment. It is all tbe more gratifying, therefore, to record that the theatre was filled from orchestra to gallery. Angela" Recognized. From tbe Springfield Republican.

1 Governor Altgeld, of Illinois, has at last been appreciated in bis own generation. The labor unions of Milwaukee sent a committee to him while he was In the city last week, with a long and flattering resolution. It named him the "laboring meus Governor' and the worthiest guest at the semi-centen nial, and commended him as the only person at the time of the great railroad strike to keep his head and recognize how the Con stitution was being violated, "while all others bowed down panic-stricken before tho loud bellowing of the golden calf," to use the document's poetic metaphor. POLTGE RAID -IttORRIS PflM Eook-Makers and Judges Arrested for Conducting a Lottery. ANOTHER PETE DELACEY MOVE Inspector McCallagh and a Squad of Officers Swoop Down and Send Consternation Into the Banks of the Betters-Another Good Turnout at Elkton-More Books on and the Crowd the Largest of the Meeting.

How They Ban at Other Points and the Entries for To-Day. New York. October 24. LTHOUOH it was expected that a good day's sport would be hnd at Morris Park with seven well-filled races on the curd, and a few surprises to change of form, it was not thought that a lot of Central Office detectives would cause consternation among the betting men and in the office of the association, but this was the casa and a fine day's sport was marred by the action of the police. Soon after the fourth race had been run, eieht bookmakers with Ave assistants were arrested on charges of bookmakiug, and taken to TCssex Market police court, where they were bailed.

Inspector MeCttllagh was at the tracks, and after the sixth race the judges, Colonel Simmons and Clarence McDowell, and (J. li. Fitzgerald, clerk of the scales, were taken into custody on a charge of maintaining a lottery. After the faces the prisoners were also taken to Essex Market police court and released on bail. The great race of the day was the Municipal handicap at a mile and three-quarters, in which August Belmont's crack.

Henry of Navarre, was a starter with ISO pounds up, and gave four pounds each to Rey el Sauta Anita and Clifford, while Andrews was the At the opening of the betting, Navarre was held at 4 to 5, hut was backed down a point at the post. Clifford was strongly played -as second choice, and Key el Santa Anita third choice, while nobody wanted Andrews at any price. The quartette got off in good order. Andrews led the way past the grand stand for the first time, all under, strong pulls, with Navarre in second place and Santa Anlla and CliiTord close together in the rear. As the racers rounded the lower turn, Andrews shot out some distance and soon had a lead of a half dozen lengths over Clifford, who bad taken second place and vas running easily two lengths in front of Santa Anita, he a length In front of Navarre, who had been taken hack by Griffin.

The pace quickened as they came to the foot of the hill, anil Andrews was beginning to tire. I'p the hill they rushed at a high rate of speed, and as they completed the first mile Andrews had dropped back into third place, while Clifford showed the way a neck In front of Navarre. They rushed around the turn on top of the hill with speed quickening every instant. Clifford was doing his best, but try as he might he could not gain an inch upon Navarre, and half a mile from home he was only a head to the good, ana Slmins was at work with hands and heels. Half a length behind the pair was Santa Anita, while Andrews was a hopeless case.

A mile and a half had been run and Oritlin had finally succeeded in getting Navarre's nose in front, for at the Inst furlong post Clifford' had got enough and was rapidly dropping back. Taval was coming like whirlwind on Santa Anita. The three swept through the last furlong only necks apart. but Griffin did not have to do any urging on Navarre. He was running true, with a good bit left, and drew rapidly away from the others, finally winning easily by a good lenght, with Santa Anita eight lengths in front of Clifford, who died away to nothing, but got the third place by fifteen lengths.

The crowd cheered the best handicap horse in training and everybody seemed happy over ttie victory. RACING AT ELKTON Favorites Haa a Hard Time of It, Harris Alone Earning Brackets. Special Telegram to The Times. Elkton. October 24.

A band that was doing service at a political meeting was pressed into yerviue and helped to enliven things between the different events.

who, while he ha not shown ability to decisively defeat good men, has given proof that the best of them cannot lower his colors. Dixon and Griffo will meet for a ten-round argument, and the dusky cyclone believes he can get a decision over the Australian. Griffo is at present involved in legal difilcnlties, but he will be on hand at the appointed time. Those who saw Grif- the lormulaoie Lavlgne do not think Dixon can make an impression on the antipodean, but every one is anxious to see the attempt. Freshmen Games at Harvard.

The following notes are from a Pittsburg paper after the Peunsylvanla-Duquesne game: If Brooke can punt better than Minds, ho is certainly a beauty. If Penusy can't play better ball than they did yesterday they had better go out of the business. Nothing hut darkness would stop Harvard, Princeton and Vale from scoring on her. Pennsy was evidently surprised. They expected something easy here, but they were disappointed.

lilair, the Greenshurg boy, seems the best player on the Philadelphia team. Well! well! well! Is that all you can do, Pennsylvania? There was some pretty tough tackling in yesterday's game. It was for blood all the way through, and when a man was brought down he generally knew something had hit mm. Leeds Answers Johnny Clark.
