Ml'LLALY'S I'LAlS TALK 'lie Thinks the Savior Would Not Have Jfcirvued the Detective Methods of thc New York Prcnclicr-I'robi letn for the Presbytery. By the I'nlted Tress. New York, Dec. 11. Most of tho mem bers of the New York Presbytery had left the meeting In the First Presbyte rian church yesterday when Thomus S. Strong, a lawyer, who Is an elder In Kev. Dr. Charles L. Thompson's church, remarked Innocently that at lunch he had been talking with friends about the fact that Dr. Parkhurst's work for re form had been recognized by oilier bodies, religious and secular, but that the Presbyterian, church had hitherto taken no action. He, therefore, pro posed that Rev. Dr. Thomas S. Hast ings, president of Union Theological seminary, who preached the Thanks giving Bermon In Dr. Parkhurst's pul pit; Rev. Dr. George Alexander, vice moderator of the Presbytery, and Rev. Dr. James O. Patterson should be ap pointed a committee to draw up suit able resolutions. There was a chilly silence for a minute. The reverend brethren and elders looked at each other dubiously. "What's this?" asked Rev. Francis P. Mullaly. "Is it a recognition of Dr. Parkhurst's work as a pastor?" Christ Not u Social Reformer. "It Is a recognition of his work In the reform of the city," was Mr. Strong's reply. "Well," said Mr. Mullaly, "I oppose Jt, Inasmuch ns Christ did not enter into social reform movements, and the whole business of Christ's ministry is preaching the Gospel. I would feel thut I had not discharged my duty If I did not say that you have no more right to take notice of what Dr. Park hurst is doing than you have to take notice of what any other benevolent citizen Is doing. I hold, sir, that you have no more right to enter upon those questions of social reform through the aid of legislation than you have to send out instructions to the shoemakers and the decorators and the dry goods dealers or anybody else in thlB country In regard to their business. " 'My kingdom,' says Jesus Christ, 'is not of this world. To this end was I born, and for this end have I come, that I might bear witness to the truth, and the truth that is in the Bible, the truth of the gospel, is the only weapon which belongs to us as an ecclesiastical body. Criticized Dr. l'arkliurst's .Methods. "If you want us as citizens to help Dr. Parkhurst or any other man, adjourn the Presbytery, meet as citizens In your Individual capacity as such and pass the resolutions you wish. I protest against the Court of Jesus Christ tak ing such action as is proposed. It is going beyond your commission. I- have not a word to say as to what Dr. Park burst has done. As a man, he has a right to do It; but I do say that when he has gone and visited those places which he wished to suppress he was not acting as a" There were frowns and murmurings, and Mr. Mullally stopped short. Then he exclaimed: "You know what I mean. He was not acting by any authority from the commission which Jesus Christ has given to His apostles, which Is simply to go and preach the gospel to every creature." There was an uneasy pause. Then Mr. Strong said he would not introduce his resolution under any consideration except that of unanimity. He wanted to Withdraw his motion. Rev. Dr. Shearer said the motion should not be with drawn. Prcsbyterj' Must I'uce tho Question. "If it is understood," said the moder ator, Rev. Robert R. Booth, "that Mr. Strong's motion" is withdrawn without prejudice, In view of the fact that only a few of the members were present when it was brought up, the with drawal might, perhaps, do no harm." Rev. Dr. Wylle moved that further consideration of the matter be post poned for the present, owing to the late ness of the hour and the very small attendance of members. This was agreed to, but when the draft of the minutes were read Rev. Dr. Kirch, the prosecutor of Dr. Brlggs, tried to have all reference to the subject expunged from the minutes, "it ought to be dropped entirely," he said. The Pres bytery would not consent to this and the January meeting will have to faco the situation. Mr. Mullally repeated In private what he had said in public, adding that Jesus Christ would not have acted as Dr. Parkhurst did on his visits to disorderly houses at the beginning of his crusade. "You observed what nn attentive hearing I got," he continued. "I am sure that some of the members of the Presbytery are with me." Mr. Mullally was born In the south of Ireland, and most of his ministerial work was done In the south. He has been In New York for a few years, and, although a member of the Presbytery, 1b not attached to any church in this city. WEBSTER'S RASH ACT. Gets Fire to His House with the Intention of Perishing Within. South Haven, Mich., Dec. 11. Robert Webster, a farmer living three miles from here, set fire to his barn about 5 o'clock this morning. Eugene Keasy and another neighbor named Stedman discovered that' the barn was on fire and after getting out the animals went to Webster's house to notify him.

The Delaware, Lackawanna and West ern Hallway company has &I4 locomotives; the Kite, WJ4, ami the Pennsylvania, l.li-5. Each engine is worth l(i,UU) on an aver age. For the eleven months ended with Nov. 30. the shipments of eoul by the Whitney syndicate from Cape Breton were 77.uO tons in excess of the samo period last year. P. B. Hellner, of the Lehigh and Wilkes Burre Coal company, of New York, says that no matter what may be done out side of his company he will stand by pres ent circular preen. The Reading rallroud reports that its coal shipment (estimated) for the week ended Dee. 8 was 208.001) tons, of which 18. (HH) tons were sent to Port Richmond and 9,000 ton to New York waters. Work on the Scranton and Pittston Su burban company's street railway line from Pittston to Avoca is going along nicely. The workmen are at present lay ing rails on Avoca's main street. The Pennsylvania railroad reports that the quantity of coal and coke originating on and carried over its lines east of Pitts burg and Krle for the week ended Dec. 1 was 417,953 tons, of which 'M,rM tons were coal and 108,447 tons coke. Private capitalists have leased the Pennsylvania railroad tract around West Hazleton, and will bore for coal. The Pennslyvanla people have driven a lai'Re number of holes, but failed to Had enoiiijli coal to warrant any further expenditure. The extension of the Wyoming Valley company's electric street railway from Lackawanna and Bloomsburg Junction to Duryea Is being pushed to completion as rapidly as possible, and not many weeks will elapse ere the line Is opened for travel. The wires are now being strung. There has been rumors abroad the past few days, says the Gazette, of the forma tion of a rival electric line from Pittston to Wilkes-Harre. Several prominent Pitls tonians have been mentioned as active promotors of the proposed new road, but each and every one of them approached on the subject has denied any connection with the rival line. The officials of the Wllllamsport and North Branch railroad held an import ant meeting at Wllllamsport recently, ut which time Benjamin U. Welch tendered his resignation as general manager, R. K. Kvanson being elected to the position. Mr. Kvanson has for some time been as sistant Reneral manager. S. D. Townsend. who has been connected with the road since Its Infancy, was chosen general freight ahd passenger agent, and will per form also the duties which heretofore de volved upon P. Murray Newman, trav eling representative of this department. The Philadelphia Press, inclined to be bearish in coal matters, says the "Indi vidual coal operators are still seriously considering the sfute of trade. The at tempt to equalize tide anil line prices has not been-wholly successful, and there is now a movement among some of the larger individual producers to arrange with the carrying companies, with whom they have contracts for the purchase of coal to rescind them for a stated period and handle the coal themselves. This would benefit some Individual producers and the trade. The talk of a strike among the miners Is not regarded seri ously." The Ontario, Carbondale and Scranton Railway company, operating between Scranton and Jackson, N, Y has at last Hied In the department of Internal af fairs the annual report of its oiieratlons for the llscal year ended Juno 30, lis!) I. The report should have been tiled on or before Aug. 81 last, as provided by law, and comes too Into to be compiled with re ports of other companies operating in the state how In' the hands of State Printer Busi'li. The company- has been certllleil by Secretary Stewart to the attorney kci eral for the collection of the JG.Ouo penalty provided for by the act of 1S8U governing these corporations. Somo of the ofllcers of the company claim they supposed tho report had been filed and that the refusal or neglect to make the report was due to the negligence of the company's secre tary, who resides In New York city. Sec retary Stewart has refused to accept the report and will Insist upon the collection of the penalty. If the possession of railroads and tele graphs Is a gauge of civilization then the United States certainly stands fur ahead of any other nation. Of railroads Amer ica has 218,871,4 miles or 31,000, miles more than all of the remaining countries of the world combined. All Kurope has but 141, 359 miles, while Asia, notwithstanding Its Immense size, counts only 23,21!)Vj nills. Africa has 7,2128 miles and Australia 12, C85 miles of Iron. For every 10.000 inhab itants In the I'nlted States there are 23.12 miles of railroad, while In Kurope the proportion falls to 4.22 miles per 10.000 In habitants. With our ox pun He of country we have 4,913 miles of road per 100 square miles, while In densely-settled Europe the mileage Is hut 3.82 per 100 square miles. The world's railways cost the enormous sum of $33,500,000,000 or an average of $121,. 2R0.8S per mile. The cheapest roads are In Australia, where the price was as low as $21,733 per mile. The roads In the United States cost ten nnd a third billion dollars or an average of $59,298.12 per mile. The facts In the case of telegraph lines are 1,002,543 miles, of which 545,(i25 miles are In America, 380,278 In Kurope, li7,4Sl In Asia, 21.562 In Africa and 47,535 In Australia.

New wheat is now upon the market, and owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three months to mature before grinding. This careful attention to every detail of milling has placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other brands. MM MEGA1EL Wholesale Agents.
