B. WHITELET. The Organist of Plymouth Passes Away This Morning. 8. B.

Whiteloy, the orgaaiBt of Plymouth church, died at 2 o'clock this morning, after a short illness, at 53 Pineapple street. Ho had beon unwoll and confined to his rooms for several days, in confioquenee of which tha or can recita of last Saturday was omitted. His speedy recov ery wan, however, anticipated until yesterday morning, when a stroke of apoplexy throw him into a Btupor from which lie never rallied. Mr. Whiteley was born in Yorkshire, England, about forly fivo years ago.

His father waa an organist, and the son inherited his mnsioal taste and perception. At the ealy ago of 0 years he sncoeBsfully presided at a church organ, and at 17 ho ooennied a regular position in one of the largo churches of England. The talent he displayed was marvelous, considering his youth, and gamed for him quite a reputution in musical circles. In 1870 he came to Amerioa and began his career here in tho following year as organist at the Holy Trinity chnroh, Brooklyn. Ha succeeded George William Warren, who had left to tako a place at St.

Thomas', New York. Ho continued at this church for seven years. Some time before his departure ho and Dr. Hall compiled a book of Episcopalian hymns. He next went to Boston, where he officiated as organist at the Music hall until when he returned to New York.

Zion Church, of New York, soon installed him as organist, but he remained only about a year. He went to Canada then and played in the cathedrals of Toronto and Montreal. Finally he preached In various churches in Olovelaud, Chicago, St. Lonis, 8an Franoisoo and Los AngeleB. He oame to the Holy Spirit chnrch, New York, in May, 1889, and when it was amalgamated with All Sools' Mr.

Whiteley came to Plymouth church, this city. Here he served with faithfulness and great acceptance to the congregation. His playing was principally of classical compositions. His technique was of the highest ordor. He leaves a widow and four children, all living in England, to mourn his losa.

Tho funeral will take place at Plymouth church Snuday, November 23, at 2 P. M. FINDING A SITE. The Fourteenth Regiment Armory Commission Moving. Its Csasaittao Has Dscided te Seport in Favor of a Plot Grcnad in the Neighborhood of Eighth Aveiise aad Font' tesBth Street.

The committee on sites of the Fourteenth regiment armory commission has practically decided to report in favor of the purchase of a plot of land for the new armory on the west side of Eighth avenue, between Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets. The dimensions of the property are 547x200 feet, and the owners are the Nassau laud and improvement company. It appears by the records of the arrears department that this land 13 in arrears to the oity for taxes and assoss monts to the amount of about $5,000. City Auditor Rutan, Supervisor at Largo Kretzsohmar and Colonel Michel constituted the committee. The price asked tor tho site is said to bo about $1,000 a lot.

Colonel Miohol was at first disposed to favor a plot on the block bounded by Eighth and Ninth avennos and Fifteenth and Sixteeenth streota, but objection was mado on account of its proximity to tho homo for tho aged. A plot ou the eait sido of Eighth avenue, between Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets, was also considered by the committee, but it waa regarded as being less available than the one which will in all probability bo reported. PANIC STRICKEN DEPOSITORS. Tho Kun on the Citizens' Hank in New Vorlc Continued. The run on tho Citizens savings bank, at the southwest corner of the Bowery and Canal street, in New York, which was started ou Wednesday, was continued in full force to day.

President Edward A. Qtilutard aud the other members of the committee on finanoe of the institution hold a meeting at the bank this morning at 0:30 o'clock. Thero had beon somo talk among the panio stricken depositors that tho officers of tha bank might avail theinselvos of tho ninety days rulo. To do away with any impression of this eortthe finance committee held a session at tho oall of President Quintard and decided by a unanimous vote to pay out to the depositors thoir money just as fast as they could. The doors of the bank wero thrown open to the public at precisely 0:44 o'clock and fifty men and women wero allowed to pass through the doors and take their places iu a lino before Cashier Charles W.

Held's deBk. Depositors who wished to draw their money had to sign a receipt and Paying Toller Taylor handed out the amount called for. At the timo tho bank was opened tho line oxtended from tha entrance to the bank on the Bowery around into Canal Btreet, west to Elizabeth street, and into the latter street south i a point Just behind the Atlantic garden or opposite tho Elizabeth street station house. Men and women of all ages, nationalities and conditions, who had deposits ranging from $5 up to several hundreds of dollars and who hailed from tho Italian and Polish Jew quarters, largely made up the line. Many of the women hold nuvjiug babios to their breasts, while the raw morning wind made them shiver and tho clouds of dust filled their eyes.

When the bank closed at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon after paying out $90,000 there wero still several hundred depositors in the line. Somo of them huug around tho bank all nipht, but they did not daro to form a line, as the police had received instructions to prevent any crowd forming. A few of the most ignorant of tho depositors wanted to sleep under tho elevated railroad station at tho corner of Canal street aud the Bowery so as to stand a chance to be first in lino this morning, but wero finally sent to their homes. Several brokers wont along the line and offered to pay from $7 6 to $0 0 for each $100 ana iu a few instances frightened depositors, who wero fearful that the bank would close down before they oould got out their money, accepted the offers, and wero hustled into neighboring sabjons by these hawks.where they wero enticed to assign or transfer their bank hooka. Within tho bank all of the clerks wero working at double speed to pay off just as fast as possible.

Tho better olass of tho bank's depositors, those with largo sums to their credit, were not drawing out any money. SAYS HE LIVES IN BROOKLYN. Arrext of a Fraud Who Worked the Subscription Scheme. A tall, fair haired man was arrested last evening by Detootivo John Savorcool, of tho Prince streot station, in Now York, for obtaining money on false pretonsss. He gave his name as Frederick G.

Rolliiison, a telegraph operator, 28 years old, living at 134 Bond street, Brooklyn. He had gone into tho store of Menser 450 Broomo street, and solicited a subscription for the telegraphers' bonefit association. He held out a big sheet with an imposing array of names with $5 The printed headingof the paper aet forth that William Lewis was secretary and F. O. Howiaud treasurer of the association.

Mr. Menser, being a member of the oharity organization society, knew that Rollinaon was an old offender and had beon blacklisted, and therefore ho called an officer. Rollinsou went away, but Detective Savercool followed him to 103 Greeno street, where a donation was asked for. He got $2 and pocketed it aud was then arrested. Rollinaon was locked up and arraigned beforo Justice Gorman, in tho Jefferson market court, this morning.

The superintendent of the charity organization sooiety said that tho prison er was an old fraud and had been put on tho blacklist and people warnod against him. GUSTAVE FISCHER ACQUITTED. A Jury Declares Slim Innocent of Grand Larceny. Gnstave Fischer, tho Austrian papor manufacturer, of 054 Carroll street, who waa tried yesterday in the conrt of sessions for grand larceny in the second degreo for hia connection with tho attempt to fix up tho affairs of Collector Luff, who absconded with Borne $3,000 of monoy belonging to the Riugler brewing company, was discharged late iu tho afternoon, as tho jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of not guilty. Fischer, who was Luff's neighbor, was givon $350byMrs.

Argument upon tho motion wa3 heard by Chief Judgo Clement, of tho city conrt, this morning and tho injunction was granted. Tho society has had many internal dissensions since its foundation, but when the original body was preparing for its annual ball, to be given upon the last of tho month, discovered that tho dissenfer. were also making preparation to hold a finiilar affair some throe day: oarlier, for which purpose they were using the name DauNeher Kricgerbund upon their forbearance and silence ceaied to be a virtue and Counselor Rauach wan employed at once to take legal proceedings, with tho result as slated above. LACK OF SEATS For the Yale Princeton Ball Game.

Foot The Manag cBioiit of Eastern r.tri Denies That Speculators Hare Keen Favwrd. Hott the RetteiTetl Tickets Hare iJaea RistrihaUd. Tho managers of the big Thanksgiving day foot ball match between Yale and Harvard have been trying to perform the impossible font of ac commodating about ten thousand more people in Eastern park on the day of tho game than tho pluco holds. Tho result is that thero is a large contingent of dissatisfied folk in this city and in New York who have not been able to got seats for the foot ball game for love or money, and others who have been ablo to seoure seats, but only by paying enormous prices for them. According to Gcorgo W.

Chauncey the management, of which he himself is the moat prominent figure, are not to blame for this, but have done everything in their powor to accommodate tho public. Tho annexed 3tatemen from Mr. Chauncey was made to a representative of tho Eaole this morning. It will show exactly what has been done with tho seats. It is tho first official statement that has boon made in regard to tho matter, which is already exciting a good deal of attention throughout this part of the country.

Mr. Chauncey said: 'The grounds at Berkeley oval, when tho game was playod last yoar, can at most seat 0,000 peo ple: of these only 1,500 are covored seats. At Eastern park we oan seat 12,000 and give covered seats to 7,000 people. In undertaking this thins? our desire was to afford the publio in general, college athletes, and lovers of foot ball in particular, an opportunity to see this game. First, in order to secure its success, wo sold at public anoiion at tho New York real estato the few boxes that we had to dispose of.

Theso were Bold without roservo to the highest bidders. I myself paid $40 for the smsll box whioh I have. At this public auction we, of course, oould not discriminate against bidders, and it i. i very likely that a number of the boxes fell into the hand) of speculators; they bid them in like anyone elo would and paid for them. Tho lotter published in this morning's papers offering boxes holding six for $35 and boxes holding sixteen for $00 was undoubtedly written by some person who purchased his boxes at tlu atictiou and is now speculating on his purchase, but as there woro a limited number of boxes this speculation oould onlv have beon done in a small way.

Tho main body of rosorved Beats wo have kept a protty good eye on and they have been well distributed, aud noarly all of them havo been sold at the regular price of $2. Notwithstanding tho largo accommodation which wo offer to the nub lioat Eastern park wo cannot begin to supply with tickets the Immense number of pooplo who desire to soo tho game. Why, I could havo sold in this office of mine, in ono day, every seat, but we had thought it necessary to distribute tho tickets and plaoo them iu totalities where they would reach tho most people, so wo divided them up as follows: Princeton college, for tho use of the students, received 022 tiokcts: Yala college proper 785, and the Brooklyn Yale collego alumni association 107. The Excelsior club, of this city got 318 seats, and the Crescent club 318 seats, beside this these last two named clubs each took 1,000 admission tioksts. Each of the reserved soat tickets was sold to tho boys at $2 each.

Kiffe, the dealer in sporting goods in this oity, received 550 tickets, which he sold at $2 each: this was the only place where tickets wero on sale in this city. In New York, Spaulding had 350, Peck Snyder a lew over 300, and Keefo Becannon had 300, whioh they sold for $2 each. Merwin Herbert, Bporting goods mon on Twenty third street had 200. Ty Bon Bro. received 800 tickets, half going to thoir stand at the Fifth avenue hotel and half going to that of the Windsor.

The stipulation which we made with thorn waa that they should only charge for tho tickets their regular percentage, which is 50 cents over the ordinary price. McBrido, tho ticket seller in the Arcade, corner Rector street and Broadway, received 400 tickets, and tho tioket Btaud in tho Equitable building 250. The balance of the rosorved Beats wero sold to my own personal friends and the porsonal friends of John Wallace, of tho New York Stock exchange, and personal friends of Edward F. Linton, Mr. Wallaeo reserving a section exclusively for members of the stook exchange.

Tho entrance tickets, which wore placed ou sale today, will bo Bold without rosorvo. Of course, all the twenty thousand or more people who buy admission tiokcts cannot expect to find seats on the bleaching boards. Tho rulo will be first come first served, and if tho day is flno theao scats will be at trood an any on tho ground." The different dealers in this city and New Y'ork corroborate Mr. Chauncey's statement In regard to tho number of tiokets which they roceived, but thoy all claim that they could have sold thousands Instead of hundreds of seats. Arthur H.

Elly, treasurer of the Yale Brooklyn alumni association, was also seen. He said the only trouble in regard to tickets was that there were dozens of applications for evory single seat, and that aftor tho colleges had been supplied, which was a matter that had to be attended to first, there were comparatively few reserved seats left. Mr. Elly said that the coming match would undoubtedly bo tho greatest given in the history of college athletics. now DANIEL THOMPSON WAS ROBBED.

The (Here tTIcntioa of a Pistol Ilestorcs His Property. "I've boon robbodl I've beon robbed 1" exclaimed Daniel Thompson, of Oil Eighth avenue, as he entered tho Eighth precinct police station yesterday afternoon. "Robbed of what?" asked Senreaut Driscoll. "My watch and chain," said Mr. Thompson, who was very much excited.

"I was standing on tho platform of tho elevated railroad at Fifth avonuo aud Ninth street, a littlo while ago, when I suddenly missed my watch and chain. Thero were two rough looklua men standing noar me. Oh, if I had only had a pistol." As ho said that Mr. Thompson put his hand to his hip pocket. "Why, what's this7" ho exclaimed.

"I never carried a pistol in my lifo." Then he drow from his hip pocket his watch and chain. He tried to smile, but could not, and as he backed toward tho door he said: "Excuse me, sorgeant."

The strike of morocco workers in McDermott Howard's shop, Park avenno and Sohenck Btreet, which was announced In tho Eagle somo weeks ago, has increased until thore are now 135 men out. The strikers, who are members of tho William A. Horan association, havo appealed to District Assembly 40 of the Knights of Labor, to which district the association is attached.

Tho district has forwarded full particulars of their caso to tho general assembly, now in eesBion at Douver, with a request that the ordor throughout Amerioa bo directed to actively espouse the cause of the men. At tho headquarters of the men, 718 Myrtlo avonne, it was stated that the trouble startod in tho coloring house, where the workers were paid 30 oentj a dozen, each man earning about $14 a week. On October 7 they were placed on a daily wago of $2, for wbioh tho men did $2 worth of work. Three days later the men wero informed that their wages would be reduced to $0 a week. The men in the coloring department then qnit.the remainder of tho employes continuing to work until the prepared stock was finished.

Some green hands wero emploj ed, and the men in the other departments refused to handle the stock turned out by them. A committee representing the remainder of the old hands bad an unsatisfactory interview, on November 7, with Partner Howard, aud, as a reanlt, a number of them quit work the next day. Twenty three leather drcss en, the last batch to quit work, did so on Monday last. William llcNair, secretary of D. A.

No. 49 said he had callod at the factory by request of tho men on Monday last and had an interview with Mr. Howard. Tho substance of this interview as given by Mr. McNair was: "Mr.

Howard declined to enter into conversation about the matter and observed in languago rcmarkablo for. its force that he would not have union men. He, had loss respeot for them than for a dog. Work lngmen should bo entirely Bubject to the ordor of their mastors." At the factory no information was to ba gained to day. The work rooms had the appearance of an Indian fort prepared for a siege.

Mr. Howard laidthat the matter concerned his firm alone and asked what business It was of the publio or the newspapers. SOME BIG GUNS That Are Building for the New Battle Ships. Coumsdora Folder's Report Upea Kavnl Ordnance Progrosi Hade in Ooaitruc tion ia the GeTcrBtaoat Shops Saeke less Tevfer Tba Maiae's Bnttery. Hpeoial to tho Eagle.

Washington, D. November 11. Commodore Folger, chief of naval ordnance, estimates ihat his bureau will rcquiro noarly $5,000,000 noxt year, of which all bnt about $500,000 will go toward the armament of new vessels. A 13 inch grin of 33 caliber length has been designod during the year, for which twelve nets of forgins havo been ordered, and which will be finished on tho new tools of the ordnauoe fouudrv this year. These guns will go on tho Tracy battleshipi, and tho chief predicts that they aro the largest sans ever likely to bo needed for naval purposes.

The forgings for tho fourth gnnof the Miantonomoh and the three 10 inch guus of tha Maine have been received and aro now going through the finishing Btasos of mannfaoturc. Four 10 inch gnns, fifteen 8 inch, seventy seven 0 inch, two inch and four 4 inch guns have been completed. Thirty five sets of forgincs havo been ordered for 4 inch guna as well as four 0 inch, ono hundred and twenty eight 8 inch, thirty fivo 8 inoh, twenty llvo 10 inch, eight 12 inoh and twelve 13 iuch guns. An 8 iuch gun of 40 caliber length has beon designed for the triple screw commerce destroyer, whioh Is expected to havo unprecedented rango and aoouraoy, due to the extremely high velocity of projectile and its fiat trajectory. A groat deal has boeu done during the year with rapid fire rifled, until it is now oertain that we are far ahead of the rest of the world with this effeotive olass of weapon.

Commodore Folger says contracts have beon made for a rigid test of Ericsson's Dostroyer at Newport, and if the practicability of submarine artillery is demonstrated it will be applied to Bpccial types of vessels for work at close quarters. Concerning smokeless powder, ho considers it wisdom to await more definite action in Europe beforo committing tho department itself to any of the powdei'B, sinco wo possess such excellent powders of the older varieties which have proved their stability in store. In the meantime, he adds, the results obtained abroad are closely observed and noted, and uampleB are tested nud analyzed as fast an received. The bureau proposes to be able at given moment, when desired, to domesticate in this country tho manufacture of Binokolesa powder. This is a significant Htatoment, becanso it is understood that the government has a most effective new powder forn.ula.by wh'oh it can mako powder iu largo quantities on the shortest notice The following secondary battery changes are proposed for the Maine: Twelve six pouiido rs in stead of four; six three pounders instead oight.

and four three pounders, instead of two, the four Gatling's being unchanged. Steps havo been taken for the manufacture of a steel wire netting which, whilo strong enough to atop automobile torpedoes, shall be light aud flexible It is intended that only armored vessels shall be supplied with tliCBO nete. The remainder of tho report is devoted to an exhibition of the Bethlehem for forgings and tho work of the naval ordnance factory at Washin gton. In the latter is shown the enormous advances made in this country, taking, for instance, the inch cnus: It cost by contract with private firms to build each of them. At tho naval factory here in 1888 it cost but $2,040 aud at tho same plaoj in 1800 it cost only $1,208.

Iu 1SS8 it took 115 days to make a 6 inch gun: here in 1SO0 it took only sixty days. ARRAIGNED IX THE COURT OF SESSIONS. Several Offenders Who Were Indicted by the raiad Jury.

Ralph Topping Hcponstal, who claims to belong to an aristocratic English family, waa arraigned iu tho AdamB street court this morning, charged by Captain James Lynch with violation of the hotel act.

About four months ago Hopenstal and his pretty young wife took a couple of rooms at Captain Lynch' Long Branch hotel. Ho paid his board regularly until two weeks ago and showed the court a receipt for $8 0 from Captain Lynch, dated November 2, and said that he had not received an expected remittance from England or would have paid his bill for the last two weeks, which was all he owed. Hepenslal is a good looking young man and apparently tells Hie truth. He says he was oattlo ranching in the West until the death of a relative when ho roceived a handsome fortune.

At 8 o'oloek this' morning Charles Anderson found the body of a man floating iu the water at Martin's stores, it was that of a man apparently 85 years of age, feot 8 inches in height, light comploxioned and aandy mustache. Tho body was ia a black Jumper and Jean trouie; He Wanted to Plead Guilty, But Could Not. The Fersrer Anxious to be to King Singr, bat the Law's Previsions Causa a Belaj The PriseHer'e Appiaranee Be fore Jsde Albert II. Smith, the forger, already finds the delays in his journey to Siug Slug wearisome and vexatious. He has wanted to plead guilty and escape as quickly as possible from his cramped and gloomy cell at the tombs to the somowhat greater liberty of the stato prison routine, and he waa anything but pleased at tho bar to his rapid progress interposed in Part I of the court of general sessions iu New York this morning.

Smith was taken beforo Judge Fitzgerald in that part this morning to pload to tho indictment found against him for forgery iu tho first degree for raising ono certificate of Michigan Southern railroad stook from seven shares to seventy. Smith was anxious to pload guilty, as ho haB been from the first, but tho law does not allow tho courts to accept this plea in cases like Smith's. So, under the advice of his counsel, Smith stood mute and a plea of not guilty was entered for him. Tho trial will probably be arranged for some day next week. It will only consist in the produotion before the jury of tho particular raised certificate mentioned in the indictment.

No question will mado abent tho fact, and thero can bo no doubt about a verdict of guilty on which Smith can ba aen tenced to state prison for a term of years or even for life. Smith was brought in by a deputy sheriff before court opened and was led to the high prisoners' pen iu the rear without attracting much attention, though two or three of the better dressed men among tho spectators craned their necks to look at him. As soon as court had been formally opened tho clerk called loudly, "Albert H. Smith to the bar." The courtroom was full of well dressed m6n now, and Smith walked quiokly forward through a lane of thorn, hit eyei downcast. As Smith took his plaoo between bluff Walter S.

Logan, his counsel, aud Mr. Walrath, the young clerk in Logan's office, who is SmithM personal assignee, the clerk continued: "You are indicted for forgery in tho first degree," Thero was a long pause. Assistant District Attorney GofT, who has charge of the prosecution, stepped up and consulted Judgo Fitzgerald. Mr. Logan left hii client's side and Joined iu the judicial cousnltation.

District Attorney John R. Fellows slipped in quietly through a side door and joined Judge Fitzgerald on the bench, easily, as if he owned the place. That conclave held Bmitli's fate in its hand, but not once did the prisoner raiso his eyes for a ray of hope or pity. As he stood with his thin, sensitive face bent forward, his slight rod sido whiskers, bis high forehead running up to his precisely parted brown hair, his brown eyos shaded with melancholy and his hands hanging listlessly in blaak slovos, ho looked more like a olorgyman in grief than ho did like a forger or a Wall streot operator. One could not watoh hiin thus and wonder at hia successful connection with Brooklyn charities aud Brooklyn Bocioty.

Ho was the ideal picture of a delicately organised, refined, serious minded man, who would always he found ready to aid in relioving the Buffering and wickedness of tho world. Tho consultation was over at last, the idea of not guilty was entered and Smith was buttled back to the pen with as littlo ceremony as John Smith, thief, was hustled forward to tako his place. When the crowd in the court room had grown smaller Smith was taken out and returned to his cell iu the Tombs.

The department of justice to day received from United States District Attorney Jesso Johnson a small two page typo written communication briefly stating tho nature of certain charges made against Pierro Parfielle, a foreman lit the Brooklyn navy yard, by two men named Itetn ineton, which charges wore investigated by a United Slates commiBBionor, who is not named and who found that tho charges against Baid I'arscllH wero absolutely groundless.

It is said at the department of justice that, rec OKitttfiiis tho great wrong done Parsolls, it has been decided not to wait for the report to go through tho usual rod tape mill, from which tho suspended foreman has already suffered so mnch, but tho report will bo briofed at once and forwarded to Secretary Tracy this afternoon.

J. Coombs Beats Congressman Wallace. The Official Canvn Caneluied Tkls Afternoon Makes tho Betncratlc Candidate tbo Winner by ft Safe Margin Tic Figtires. The official canvass for the Third congressional district was completoJ at i iO o'clock to day, and although tho returns have not beon booked in the county clerk's oflloe, thore is no doubt that William J. Coombs has beon elected ovor his lie publican competitor, William 0.

Wallace, by a majority of nine. The following table bIiows the votos cast in the wards for tho respective congressional candidates, together with the pluralities recorded in favor of each and the numbor of blank and defective ballots that were not counted. Iu addition there were a fow votes oast for the prohibition and socialist candidates: Plurality Coomba orer Wallase, i. The canvassers began work on tho Twenty third ward, numerically the last to be reached in tho Third oongrossional district, and, as before when the great absorbing question oame to the front, there was a full attendanoe of well known Hepublicans. District Attorney Bidgeway and a couple of his asBistanta looltod after Mr.

Coomba' interests aud W. W. Goodrich tried to nerve the drooping spiritB of the Wallace men who sat disconsolately around. Supervisor Lookwood, of the Twenty third ward, was tho most active mathematician that Mr. Wallace had and it is from figures furnished by him, with Eomo oorreotions afterward made by Republican Supervisor Fitohie, that tho abovo table of pluralities is mado out.

The number of blank and defootivo ballots is taken from the tally sheet as kept by Mr. MoMullou, of the dis triot attorney's office When Supervisor Lockwood oloBed down his book at 12:30 an adjournment was had, The Twenty fourth ward was taken up at 2 o'olock. Lawyer Goodrich boforo ho went away prao tically gave up all hope of electing his client. He admitted that on the faoo of tho returns Coomba has a small plurality, but intimated that if tho blank and dofeotive ballots wore oountod there might be a posaibility of a change iu Wallace's favor. "That's all right," said Mr.

Ridgway, "but if the blank and defootive ballots are oountod I think it will be found that Mr. Coombs' majority will be largely increased. Those who voted for Wallaoe, as ijapparent from even the slightest investigation of tho matter, took tho entire Republican tioket from top to bottom. Thousands of Republicans who voted a portion of tho ticket of their party, but went oa record against Wallace, may Doasibly have voted defective ballots: and, as I said beforo, if those aro to be oounted, Mr. Coombs' majority will be "When you reraembor," said Clerk W.

L. Howard, of the board of superviiors, who lives in tbo Twenty third ward, "that in our ward Jero Coa tollo, the oandidate for city auditor on tho Republican tieket, got 2,500 majority while Wallace only had 800 as a margin, it should not be difficult to determine on which side the alleged defective ballots ought to be counted." Mr. Ridgway intimated that if ueeesiary proceedings would be instituted in court to compel an examination of the alleged defootivo ballots. Tho county olerk in tho meantime will not dc olare to whom tho certificate of election shall be given, but there is no doubt that when the canvass Is completed the supervisors will instruct him to give it to Mr. Coombs.

Tho district attorney late this afternoon put Jf r. Coombs' majority at 1 4. GENERAL KILES OS THE INDIANS, He Say Siliinp; Bull Unreal a General Rising in the Washington, D. Novembor 21.

E. T. Hiscox Tell Uovr Faitli Molds Men's Miads. Tho preinillennial Baptist conference at the Centennial Baptist church, in Adelphi street, opened for the laBt day's work this morning at 10 o'clock. The session was opened with prayer aud singing of the hymn "Close to Thee," after which it was aunouuoed that a half hour would be devoted to prayer for the spread of prophetio truth.

Many of the pastors and others present Joined in prayer that the neglected parts of the Bible, containing the prophecies rolatine to the promillonnial coming of Christ, might roach the whole world in the fullness of their trntb. The praying was interspersed with selections from Jhe hymnal. Tho first address was by tha Rev. D. Lam son, of Manchester by tho Sea.

His subject was "Prophecy, Some Hints aa to Its Interpretation," and his words were in part as follows: Tho word prophecy in the common nee is equivalent to prediction or foretelling. But it is employed in a broader sense In scripture. As often employed it signifies not foretelling, but forthtelling. It la Bometlmes nearly, if not quito synonymons with our word preaching, with tho vitally Important clement of inspiration proBup poBe.l. The Old Testament pronhets were moro than moro prediotors, they were the re formern, the religious toaohers of Israel, tho Luthers, tho Wcsleys of their time.

Their miBBion was to summon the people to repontance, to call them back to duty, to send the note of warning against idolatry and neglect of God and to lift up the standard of righteousness. Mingled with their warninK and toaohings wero many announcements of Judgment against sin and of promises of restoration and favor norm repentance, whioh involved necesiarily the foreshadowing of future events in the history of individuals and of the nation at large and also of other nationi so far an then political relations and destiny wero linked with those of the ohosen people aud suoh prediction became often so large and important an element in the public teaohing of the olass of men known as prophets, that prophecy hai come In the popular mind to be restricted to this feature of it. This is the sense, too, in which it if often used by the eacred writers themselves; and this is tho sense in which it will be UBod In the present paper. Prophecy, thus understood, is ooe of the marked characteristics of the scriptures. The fabric of inspiration is shot through and through with its gold threads.

Somo books are almost wholly prophetic, while in others tho prophetio element vanes in proportion from a few words or a single senteuoe, aB in the book of Josiah, to lone and consecutive pasaages, as In Isaiah and Ezekiel. There are prophecies concerning things earthly and things heavenly, concerning individuals, families, tribes, nations, races, concerning the Jews, the Gentiles aud the church of God, prophecies which will only find their accomplishment In tho awful splendors of the second advent and in tbo new heavens aud tho new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness." Iu fact, to remove from the Bible all prophetic utterances one must tear away largo and continuous portions of the word of God. What would bo left after such an excluding process would be a more thing of shreds and tatters, Not only tho pattern, but tho vory texture of Revelation would bq destroyed. Ihe voice of prophecy has long Blnco been hnshed. In olosing up the volume of tho book, the soar of Patniosput on record the solemn warning, If any man shall add unto these things God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this boek." Prophecy has failed in tho eense that tongues have ceased aa npirithal ondowmentB Intended for a special and a temporary purpose.

Bnt it may bo well that "God has mora truth still to break forth from his holy word," especially along the lines of yet unfulfilled prophecy, awaiting tho labors of diligent and devout delvera in the mines of inspiration, to bo brought forth as it is needed, to quioken the faith, hub toln the oonrago and brighten tho hope of believers, to furnish warmth for days of coldness when the ice ago of rationalism shall sweep over Christendom and light to relievo the deepening gloom of the declining days of apostasy, "until tbo day broak and the shadows iloo away." This address was followed by the singing of the hymn, Tho crowning day is ooming." The discussion of the priesthood of Christ by tho evangelist, George C. Needham, being held over for the meeting to night, the discourse on "The Advent an Inspiration to Christian Endeavor," by tho Rev. E. T. Hiscox.

was tha closing busi noss of tho session. Portions of the discourse are given here: Tho faiths mon cherish mold their characters and control their lives. And whether the object of such faiths be human or divine they still work with a silont persuasive force in him who believes, slowly transforming the subjoot into the likeness of tho object in whom that faith reposeB. Transformed by a force and to a degree proportioned to the objootlve power of attraction which commands and holds them and tho subjective energy with which they work it, mere intellootual belief reacts and leaves its impress on tho mind alone, or chiefly directing its processes and fixing its habits of thought. Bnt there is a deeper, mora profound, more potont faith of the heart, for with tho heart man believeth unto righteousness.

This ia the faith, therefore, which through the operation of the spirit subordinates the heart and brings the affoctious into tho obodicuce of Christ. This is the faith that works by love; the love of Christ is shed abroad in the hearts and the love of tho heart Is pnnfied and fixed on Christ. Faith is uo miracle, but it is a mystery in both its routine and operation. Thero ia no loving efticaoy iu an aet of faith only as iu it tho Bpirit reveals Christ to the soul and creates it anow in His image, givinu it the ability to accept Him, love Him and obey Him. Thus the Baiut and his Savior are brought into a vital union with each other, the divino making its impress on the human thought, this subtle, but sacrod hour, while the sonl, hid with Christ, lives its life in the flesh by the faith of the Son of God, who loved it and died for it.

By faith Christ becomes the Biibtance of things hopsd for, the evidence of things not seon. All this is a roveiation to tha soul and its transforming power works mightily in them that believe. The faiths men oliarish mold their characters and control their iives. This is pecttli arily true an to their beliefs in the supernatural and the divine. Wo grow towards our idoals.

It is the constitution of our nature. Even friondB in the intimacy of long continued and loving fellowship, impresj themselves on each othor till thoy becomo alike in thought and feeling and expression; almost in loks. The moral standards of tho world are loyally fixed by the characters of tho deities they worship. From the nrBt transgression man concene uou to oe a consuming fire. They felt the justice of it.

But it took the world 4,000 years to learn that God was also love. And it only learned it then from Him who came forth from the bosom of the Father to teach it and preach peace on earth and good will toward men. The moruing Bession then closed with singing of tho hymn, "To the Work in the Strongth of the Lord." The members reconvened at 2 :30 P.

ROBBED A BANK. The Twenty sixth Ward Institution Loses $5,000. CleTeilj Pep9iled liy Tito Myslerion Hea en Wcduesday Tbe Story of the Crime Jf! a Serious FiaaiU'ial Lss fr the Steckholders. Shortly after noon on Wednesday, tho Twctity siitli ward bail's robbed of $5,000 in cash. Seldom lia.

mi institution of the kind boon worked ito cleverly or so mysteriously. The tto. nf the a told by b.iiik to Polioa Dliieer French routs a talc of locerder ruain. At five lninutea past tho noon hour Wednesday, Ditmiu Jewell, president of tho bank, left tho buildinc B. K.

Spellman, the cashier, and Simeon Bookman, a clerk, were left in charge. TnrniiiR to Bookman Mr. Jewell told him under nn circumstances to leave, tho bank until the return of Mr. 1'ulmcr, another tlcrk rrlio had jfunn to collect a note Mr. Jewell had boon gime only a few moments when there cmo a riuj: at tho telephone.

Bpellnun vras Bit tine at tho cashier's window, within arm's reach of the safe. Bookman wont to tho telouhone, The Queens county bank wishes to talk to yon," ho said to tho caphier. While Bookman was at tho telephone a stranger entered aud coins to him said: "A man outside wants to piy you some money." Bookman followed tho stranser to tho street and tho latter, say, went in tho direction of tho Howard hoiwe. At tho eidewalk Bookman found a man in a buggy. "1 want to pay you some money for Mrs.

Va.ii derveer, of Newtown, who wants to open an account," and with that he counted J00 in email bills Into Bookmsn's hands. "Tell Mr. Spsllman that nhe has the rheumatism, but if ho will send her the book sho will return her signature by mail." Then ho soomcd to reconsider, and, takins the money from Bookman, remarked: "I cuess, af tGr all, it would bo better to bring her down here." Then authoring tho reins he drove slowly away. Spallman at this point oalled Bookman into the offloa and than answered the toluphone. Tho call from tho Queen's county bank was sonuino and Mr.

Bpollmau roturned to his ohair. While Bookman was on tho sidewalk a mm en toredand eot oashod a chock fortt.l. At 12:25, twenty minutes after Prosidont Jewell left the bank, a man came tn with a cheok for six hnndred aud some odd dollars. "Let mo have the monoy in small bills," ho said. Hpelbnan turned to a small safe inside the bis one to eot a paokage containing $5,000.

It was gone. Qroatly alarmed, ha called Bookman, but ths package conld not bo found. There was a chance that Clerk Palmor miffht havo cashed a big check, but on hia arrival a few ruinates later ho doclarod that knew nothing of the money. Captain French in bia roport to Suporintendont Campbell says: About I P. M.

on the 19th inst. Ditmas Jowell, preaidont of the Twenty sixth ward bank, telephoned that he would like to sea me at tho bank. I arrived thore about 1 :30 P. M. He said to me that they had mined a smsll amount of money, bat coal.i not cll the amount until thsy balanced their aooonnts.

Ha wanted nothing said until he was iraro. Mr. Jowell told me about a man in a wagon calling Bookman and about a lira. Vandorvoer, of Newtown. I drove to Newtown and ascertained that several families by tho name of Vandervoer resided there.

It was impossible for mo to soe them all a it was getting dark. Io.ime back to tho bank aud saw Mr. Jewell, who told mo there was nothing further as yet, and did not want anything r.Qld about it as the matter might bo all right. I since ancertaiuod that the amount missing is about $5,000. About 12:10 P.M.

on the 10th mat. 1 got oft' tho Kings county elevated railroad station corner East New York and Alabama avenues and saw a bay horse and top wagon, with man in wagon wearing black slouoh bat, talking with Simeon Bookman in front of the Twenty sixth ward bank. When within fifty foot of roar of wagon Bookman left him and startod to go into tho bank. The man drovo slowly toward the Howard house and turned down Williams, toward ISast New York arenne. I spoko to Bookman nn I passed by and went on toward the Howard house.

I mot no ono aud saw no one going from tho bank, except the man on the wagon. It is impossible for anyone to enter orloave tho bank except by tho front door. I have not located the man who was in the wagon as yet. While in tho bank. nuking an investigation B.

B. Snollmau, oashlor, seemed very much excited, which Beemod rathor mysterious to me. In Cashier Spellman's statement to Captain French he said that he did not loavo his seat from the time Mr. Jewell went out until ho arose to call Bookman from the sidewalk so that he could answer the telephone. Clerk Bookman's statement coincides with the ttones given above.

The loss of the money is a small to the bank, as it is in a very prosperous condition. The directors will hold a mooting to night and probably they will make up the loss at onca. Everyono connected with tho institution finds consolation in tho fact that tho thioves did not get away with the many thousands of dollars thore wi ro also in the safe. Tho interior of the bank Is arranged eome thins like this: Street. A.

Caahier'a wiudow vrhi Mr. Bpellraan stood while the check. llookman's window. C. President 'a room.

1). Safe. E. Aisle, down which the thief walked, thro ib the president' room. I' Tho door between tin banting and president's rcom.

Mr. Jewell, president of tho bank, says that ILuve is no ona to blame except the cashier and Die clerk, Bookman, who wero a little derelict in thair ditty. Ho continued: "Bookman is excusable, baoause he is a now man taken on in an emergency while trto of our men are sick with typhoid fovcr. During tho early history of our bank I had frequently cautioned our men asainut leaving the bank In charge of ono nun. Before leaving for dinner I cautioned Bookman against leaving the bank bofore Mr.

Palmer, tho other clerk, or I roturned. But when this man entered and requested some one to stop out and take tho deposit, it was perfectly natural fur him to act in a courteous manner, without thinking of my injunction. Mr. Spellman should have stopped him from leaving tho bank. Of course both feel the matter very deeply.

The check was signed by CharlcH H. Nichols. Mr. Nichols an entirely reliable man. We have not as yet communicated with him.

The bank is in excellent condition financially an good as it was, in fact. The entiro iojs will fall on the stockholders, of course, so there Is uo ne of fear on tho part of depositors." When tho mat tor was first reported to Hupr of Police Campbell put a oouplo of central office detectives, Xtitult and Mahoney, on tho case, and this morning descriptions of tho man who called Bookman outside, tho man lvlio came in and tho $45 check cashed and the man in tho buggy were sent broadcast ovor the country. Tho description); aro iw follows: First, 30 years old. feet 10 inches, 175 pounds, light complexion, blonde mustache light clonoh hat, colored band, blue sack coat and vest, light pautd; second, iii years, 5 foet 8 inches, dark complexioncd, heavy black miiBtacho tituad with gnty, black diagonal ack coat and pants, slouch hat; third, 34 vears, feci II inches, 1 GO pounds, dark brown derby, lia'ut eomulexion, sandy mustache, light f.pi iug renat. Tho last had bright bay horso about 1 oW hands high aud top sido bar buggy.

'J ha check presented while Booktnau waa on the sidewalk was drawn by Charles H. Nichols, a depositor, and made payable to bearer. One poiice theory that the stranger who called Bookman outside slipped back, crawled nionsr the floor cluse to the long desk and into tho president's room. Then ho sneaked behind tho desk, and while tho cashier was attending to tho man with Niohols' check got the money. Had Spellman discovered tho thief in all probability he would have been covered by tho man at the window.

Friday is proving an unlucky day for tho Long Island railroad.

This morning thero was a collision between trains at Valley Stream and a big wreck was the result. Last Friday morning there was an equally bad smash up at Jamaloa. and In the evening a worse one still at Hlcksville. Locomotives wore disabled, earn out in two and derailed and tracks torn up. The accident ai Valley Stroatn this morning was wholly duo to carelessness, whether of the men in oharge of tho freight train that Hooked tho two tracks or of the man who works the block signala tho officers of the company will have to determine by investigation.

That there was no loss of life was due to tho faot that tho Babylon pasaeugir train coming west was slowing up to stop at Valley Stream, Passengers wero thrown from their scats by the concussion and several wero bruised more or less severely. Mrs. Stout, of Itookville Center, widow of Counselor Stout, wan leaning over the back of a seat talking with a friend aud received a severe blow under the chin by the reversible back lumping up when the trains struck. Her face swelled rapidly and it waa feared her left jaw was broken. The Babylon freight train was making its morning trip eastward.

It was a long train. The aame hands act as brakemon and freight handlers, and also as switchmen whore the tracks are not moved by the lover system from a signal box. The train this morning had to switoh somo carl containing supplies for the Brooklyn water works extension to the special track laid for the storage of ears on the north Bide of the road. Thta necessitated the freight train crossing tho west bound track, and it does not appear that the conductor protected himself against surprise from a westbound train, although the Babylon accommodation was then due. The freight train had no right there at that particular time, 8:20 o'clock.

He should have kept bia train intact on the track which was his, protecting the west end of it with a flag. The train having blockaded tho westbound track, the conductor should have sent a flag to tho eastward, and if that had beon done the Baby Jon pnssonger train would have come to a atop at a safe distance. It could not be seen how tho man whose duty it was to work the block signals could have done so, for the advantage of tho weBtbonud Babylon train, as the Brooklyn waterworks switch is laid beyond the reach of the tower line, and this made it all tho more imperative for tho conductor of the freight traiu to protect himself. The locomotive of the Babylon train was reversed when rounding a curve, and passengers saw the engineer and firemen leap off and run away. Roalizing that something waB going to happen, many persons sprang to their feet, rushed for tho doors and cot out on tho platforms intending to Jump, but they did not have time.

Fortunately there was no telescoping tho ears, or a number of passengers would havo boon maimed if not killed. The train from the oast crashed into tho freight train diagonally. The front of the locomotive was stove in, aud tho pilot, headlight and smoke staok torn off. The platforms of the two forward passenger oars wore raised and lodged agaiuBt oaoh other in the Bhape of the lotter A. Sevoral windows were broken.

Tho locomotive and one oar were thrown from the traok. The freight oar into wbioh tbo locomotive plunged was broken into splinters at one end and lifted from tho truoks and thrown on its side In the ditoh. Tho car noxt it on the west ond was thrown from its truoks against a switoh, A third oar was derailed Tho switch and several rails were ripped from the tios. Tho freight train was cut iu two and all of it east of the wreck was run to Pearsalls. The later westbound paseenger trains were sent baok to Babylon aud run over the oentral division, all of them late.

The oastbound morning mail train went as far as Valley Stream, where the passengers and la vere transferred to such of the oars of tho wo thound Babylon train as had not sustained damage and wore taken through by the locomotive borrowed from the freight train. The wrecking train was soon at work clearing the road and trains will run regularly this afternoon. Superlutendont Barton and Assistant Superintendent Fitoh wero on tho grounds. JAV GOULD AND ATCHISON tjTOOff. Ho Oitua a Biff Slice of It.

lint Hot tile Hoad, Mr. Gould was asked this morning, in Now York, with reference to the report that he had got control of tho Atohison, Topeba and Santa Fe railroad. Mr. Gould said that this report was orroneoui, although he admitted that he ownod a considerable portion of Atchison stock. He said that the Missouri Pacifio and tho Atchison road had entered into an agreement with reference to tho future business policy of tho two roads.

They have agreed that neither one shall build any competing roads into the territory of tho other without tho foil understanding and sanction of the othor. With reference to rates on tho transcontinental lines, Mr. Gould expressed confidence that the agreement between the presidents would be renewed and strictly maintained within a short time. Under the new situation of things nearly all the roads interested favor a restoration of rates. It only remains for the bankers to oall tho presidents together authoritatively.

It is learned to day that the meeting of the principal stockholders of tho Union Pacific railway company for a reorganization of tho board of directors will bo held next week, probably not later than Thursday. DEATH OF 0. P. RAPPELY EA. The Descendant of aa Old Family Passes Away.

Accused of Having Shot Johu Carroll Two Years Ace. Among tho indictments found by (he grand jury this morning was ono for murder in tho first degree against William J. Smith for the shooting of John Carroll on Novembor 18S8. When called to tho bar beforo Judgo Moore, in the court of sessions. Smith pleadod not guilty to the charge and stated that he had no money with which to employ counsel for his defenso The court Btatcd that it would appoint an attorney to look after tho case later on.

The reason for tho apparent tardiness of justice in bringing, the prisoner to trial is found in tho fact that, im mediately after tho shooting, Smith Hkipped out for parts unknown and was not discovered until last September, when he was found in Boston, working as an employe of a railway company thero. ne was at once brought back to Brooklyn and lodged in Jail.
