KEV. WILLIAM ELLIOTT GRIFFIS. His Opposition to (he Policy of the American Etaard of Coramiiieir. The Rov. Dr.

William Elliott Griffis, pastor of the Shawmut Congregational church of Boston, has beou very strongly opposed to the policy o' the American board of commissioners for foreign missions, which has just held its annual meeting iu Minneapolis. Dr. Griffis is well known in Brooklyn, having passed the earlier years of his life in this city, aud subsequently supplied Dr. Bohrends' pulpit in the Central congregational church during several summers. Ho was roported in a prominent out of town paper during the week as holdiug the foUowing views: I am heartily in oarnest about the great enter prise of making all natious disciples of I believe in the ultimate supremacy of Christianity in all the earth, but not in the dogmatic and traditional form in which tho presont ruling majority of the prudential committee of the American board would bind it, I consider that their course in dealing with candidates for missionary appointment tends to breed hypocrisy and deceit in applicants.

Arter the meeting of the board in New York it seoms to me that it was an act of treachery in the accidental majority in the prudential committee to reject Mr. Covell. It is certain that inferior persons have been appointed and sent out in the place of able and consecrated men. We cannot afford to send to the nations without Christ any but the best of our young men and women, ner cau we afford to keep sending them the kind of a gospel which in the mint, anise aud run min answers to the specifications of the temporary majority of the committee now in power, but in vital Christianlikeness fails sadly. There are weightier matters now on hand than the gratification of personal dislike towards certain seminary and faculty and the nursing of local tradition.

1 cannot say that I think matters have greatly improved inside of the prudential committee, for I do not know and have little evidence. Indued, I cannot say that I have much faith in the ultimate solution of tho difficulties that vex us until the a a chronous close corporation existing in the fruternity of American Congregational churches passes away. In a very real sense the name American board is a misnomer. It is an anachronism, if not a false profession. Actually the American board of commissioners for foreign missions is no longer what it once was an undenominational and non sectarian society.

It is a society doing business for Con grgatioiiahsts iD the United States, and for these almost exclusively. In the religion taught and lived by Jesus it is always safest and best to live according to fact and not tradition, to face the truth and the fears of the elders or the zeal of the youngsters. I sincerely pray that the Congregational Christians, who call themselves collectively the Amerioan board, will, at their coming meeting at Minneapolis, be so divinely directed that the righteous discontent now existing in the churches may be removed, and tath every man, woman and child iu the (jongroca tional fellowship may be from infancy to the last day of life enlisted in the work of preaching the gospel to every creature. BUOOKLTN PU11S1S AT BUFFALO. Most of the Brooklyn priests are alumni of tho Niagara seminary and college.

Treasurer ITIclIaHgbaii Flatly Kef ticca Co Show (he Hooks.

School Commissioner Andrew G. Cropsey at tempted to hold another hearing upon the charges which the inhabitants committee of Parkville have preferred against School Trustoes Howard T. Jlontgonv ry and John A. Biggs, last night in tho Bchool house of tho town, but owing to the constant objections which the attorne) for the trustees interposed vory littlo progress was made. The e.hnrffes which have led to the examination by the commissioner are of long standing and the personal feeling in the matter was very evident from ths proceedings lajt evening.

At o'clock quite a crowd had gathered iu front ot the school House. Counselor William P. Picket, on behalf of he trustees, took an exception to holding a session on Saturday afternoon, wnicu is a legal holiday for school matters. Ho moved an adjournment. Mr.

Cropsey held that the proceedings were legal and snould co on, and then Mr. Owen Mathews, who has been one of the moving spirits of the inhabitants committee, said that ever since tho matter had heen agitated the trustees were constantly seeKiug to put oft any definite action. Wlien meetings wore called they hau refused to open the school house. He could not see why, if there was no foundation to tin chat ges presented, the trustees should so seek to hinder a proper inKj'sticaton. Mr.

Picket again pressed his pojut, but the commissioner wanted to know whv thu hearing could not go on then, and ordered the counsel to proceed. Lawyer Pickett, when forced to proceed, took up some of the previous testimony aud moved that several of the paragraphs Oe stricken out as tney had no bearing upon the points at issue. Ihe motion was denied. James McCaughan, treasurer of the school board, was then put upon the stand by Mr. Mathews, and as soon as he was seated Judge Callahan stated that he appeared in behalf of the treasurer.

Mr. Mathers, however, said he could not sue what right a witness had to employ counsel to answer questions, aud tnat McCaughan had certain papers ami documents which he wanted to see. He then made a demand for the bonks, but Callahan refused to let him see them. Mr. Pickett also joined in the objection and it looked as though the books, and checks demanded would not see the light.

Mr. Cropsey seemed to Do gettlug out Oi patience. He asked the counsel why they made so many objections to having tlie charges thorougnly aired, as the witness hail all along courted an investigation, saying that he had nothing to fear. Under such circumstiuces he could not sec why they were not willing to proceed. Ho then demanded to himself see ihe pass book of the treasurer.

Judge Callahan, on behalf of the witness, again flatly refused to exhibit the book uuless some specific item was cited. "I know," he went on, "just why this investigation was instituted. I know all about it and I do not propose that Mr. Mathews or anybody else shall seo the. books." Mr.

Mathews was on his feet in a moment and read that section ths school laws whicli states that the commissioner is at any time empowered to examine tho accounts of the treasurer. He Haid further that the trustees hail always boasted that their accounts were open to everybody, thai, iu truth, no one had ever been allowed to see them. Lawyer Picket again suggested an adjournment, but Mr. Cropsey demanded the production of tlio books. Judge (Jallahan Btill advised the witnoss to withhold tliem.

Mr. Mathews, in order to provide the specific items demanded, asked to 6ee the vouchers for the following cheeks: iebru ary 5, 1880, for $075; April 11. 1888, for $407.71: January 15, 1880, for $500; April 4, 1888, for $1,000, ami September 0, 18SU, for $500. Also, he asked to see a memorandum of a note discounted by the Commercial bank on October 22, 1890, to the credit of the treasurer, tho proceeds of which were $501.70. The witness said that he did not have warrants for these amounts, and he was accordingly ordered to produce them at the next hearing.

Upon another demand for the pass book it was produced aud handed to the commissioner. When the wituess took the book the judge made the remark that he knew nothing about its contents, a fact which Beemed to be a strange admission for one who rillod such a position as treasurer of the board. hen Mr. Mathews asked to' seo the book tho witness dropped it into his pocket with a tlat reinsal, but he was obliged to show it Mr. Mathews wuuted to know why it waB necessary for the witness to have counsel upon the stand.

This seemed to arouse Judge Callahan's ire, and a spirited interchange of questionable compliments was made. The commissioner, apparently seeing that there was no use to strive further for order or information, adjourned further hearing until a week from Monday at 3 o'clock. CUBA! CIGAKiUkERS 05 STRIKE.

Brooklyn's Representatives Take fifteen Prizes A Great Crowd at the Columbia Clnb's Grounds at Analostan Island Three World's Records Broken and One Had.

Special to the Eizle.1 Washington D. October 11. The third annual champioiialiip eames of the Amateur athletic uniou decided at Washington on the crouiuls of the Columbia ittlilotic club, on AnaloBtan Islaud. jsaterday afternoon. The meetinct vr undoubtedly the yreafest one ever held in the country and Hti'oiiReat and fleetest amateur athletes of America met on the Cinder path nnd field to decide who was entitled to the championship emblem of 1KU0.

Early in the mornintf heavy clouds huug over the skitm and they neenied to put a damper on the ardor of the enthusiastic athletes. The signal officer predicted rain and tho athletes and then friends to the number of 10,000 found out for themelve that the temperature was near the freezing point. Tho Manhattan club's supporter still continued to Hhout, and Jim HoliitiHoii, the trainer Df the club, stated that it squill be a very cold day when his team, comprised of a number of Hie best Brooklyn and New York athletes, nould be frozen out. At about 1 o'clock, hovfover. the rift of clouds seemed to rise, and the athletes, with one that it wns coine to be an ideal day for tho contest.

Karly in the morning, despite the threatening weather, crowds of visitors bezan to at the boat house of the Columbia athletic club, and the four little steamers were keplmsy ferrying them across the Potomac. An athletic plant tmi as the island affords is not found.uear another Lure city in the country. Tho little plane mtr.ips about, seventy acres of ETfimnct. on which is everything necessary for the equipment of an athletic club. There is a runuiiii; track a quartc of a mile in circumference, a base ball tlumnrm.

a hundred yard straight away for spurt running, a Held for hammer and weiht throwing contents nnd every other convenience that euiiid be desired. From the landing a path leads ho tho. south up a light incline, passing several perfectly Bra. led tennis courts, throutrh a grove of mitrhty mou archs of the forest, whoso branchet meet overhead. On the left is the small club house, which has been recently built for the accommodation of visitors.

At the crest of the hill a perfect picture bursts upon the Tiew. The track and Ueld are enclosed by stands, and the tents for the athletes lie scattered over the plateau, lending a dash of color to tho scene. The track was smooth and springy and looked fast enough to satisfy the most captions of tho sprinters. Everything was in perfect order from one end of the island to the other. The lonL' cov.

ered grand stands were prettily decorated with flaes and colored bunting and made a gay b.ick gronnd for the green held. Everything was conducted with clock like precision, ami the championship games committee, consisting of Harry McMillan, of the Athletic club of tho Schuylkill navy; Howard Perry, Columbia athletic club E. Suiiivau, New Jersey athletic club; G. AV. Carr, Manhattan athletic club, and Sam Steennie.tz, of the Columbia athietic club, deserved the thanks or" the athletic world for tho great success which today crowned the efforts of the Amateur athletic union.

Three records were broken during (lie contests and as each announcement was made round after round of applause was given by the spectators. The great feature of the meeting was the breaking of the 100 yards dash record by J. Owens, of the Detroit athletic elnb, who covered the distance in the wonderful time of 0 4 5 seconds. The best previous amateur record was 10 seconds and a number of the famous sprint runners in the country are proud of having covered the distance in that time. Tho final struggle was a beautiful one, in the 100 yards dash, and as the four great sprint era liucd up at tho start the excitement was in tense.

Westing had the inside path, with Owen next and Kohinson tit his side ami Cory was the outside of the path. At tho crack of the pistol the Detroit man jumped to the front and lead for about a quarter of ths distance. At the fifty yards mark Owens. Cory and Westing were not three feet apart. From this point the plucky little Dotroit champion i ct.

a terrific pace. The last twenty five yards was run by the three leading mra in remarkably fast time, but Owens seemed to have the greatest speed, and burst across the tape about Hupp feet abend of Cory, who lead Wetting by about two yardn. When the time was announced the crowds Bhouted and cherred, and a number of the mOBC enthusiastic threw their hats up in tne air and ye. led themselves hoarse.

H. MoLollan, The Talent Loses Money at the Morris Park Track. Mr. Harrcln Refuses to Bisk His Mare in the Mud and the Race Between Raceland and Flrenzl Does Not Come Off A Big Crowd and Some Good Contests. A great crowd of peoplo went out to Morris Park yesterday with the hope of seeing Flrenzi and Raceland come together on equal terms.

The rain of the previous night their hones considerably, for after a loo' a the heavy, sticky track few, if any, of the spectators expected to see Mr. Haggin start his priceloss mare. He refused to let her start and a number of other owners followed his examplo and withdrew their entries. There was plenty of sport without them and none of tho visitors made any complaint as to not having received the worth of his money. It was a bad day for favorites and the talent suffered considerably.

The punishment began in tho vory first race, when the 10 to 1 Bradford waltzed in a winner two lengths ahead of tho horso which carried all tho public money. (July in the fifth race did a favorite win, and then there were only three entries and no betting. Following is a summary of the racing: riHADFOIlD FIItST, HEII.LV SECOND.
