Pittsburg, Pa., Nov, 18. Frederic Archer, musical director at the Car negie Library, was denounced this af ternoon at the meeting of the Christian Patriotic Association in Veteran Le gion Hall. The cause was the state ment of Mr. Archer, made tn an Inter view, in which he classified the Moody and Sankey gospel hymns as "vulgar, If not absolutely Immoral." Rev.

Hitter, paying teller of the Tacony Saving Funtl Title and Trust company, has disappeared. A warrant has been Issued by the officers of the company for his arrest, but nothing whatever Is known of his whereabouts. Rttter dis appeared on Saturday night, e.fter leaving a note for his wife saying she would never see him alive. Vice Pres ident Lewis R Dick, of the Saving Fund company, has also received' a let ter from KUter tn which he confessed to misappropriating funds of the com pany, and Informing him of his pro posed night. ' A meeting of the directors of the In stitution was called, a warrant was Issued for Ritter's apprehension, and an Investigation of his accounts was immediately begun. The latter had been teller of the bank since Its or ganization about three years ago, Mrs, Rttter believes her husband has com mitted suicide. The savings bank ' people 'were ex amining Ritter's books to-day and up to to-night nothing wrong had -been round wltn tnem. His cash account was found to be all right and had he wished to make a haul before leaving he culd have done so, as, there was J7.600 in cash on tire desk when he left Saturday night and there was $200,000 in negotiable securities In the safe. The company is a small concern and even If it would be found that Rltter has taken anything, the amount cannot be large. Rltter was a quiet man of domestic tastes, and although he was paying teller ana assistant secretary of the bank, his salary until recently was only (l.ovo a year, when It was raised to II. 200. Nothing has yet been learned of Rltter s whereabouts. TAKES LICK CALMLY. Elizabeth Kelly, the Heiress, Does Not Be como Excited Over llor Prospective $13,000,000 Which Is Due In Two Weeks. Philadelphia. Nov. 18. Miss Elisa beth Kelly, the Latona street heiress, is taklnir her good fortune quite calm ly. Since the announcement that mie has Inherited her uncle's estate of $15, 000,000, she has been deluged with let ters from all manner and conditions of people. Some asked for charity, others for personal loans, one for a nominal amount, with which to develop the greatest discovery of the age, wniie a young man studying for the priesthood desired cnoucrh to complete his educa tion, and to erect for him an imposing edifice, principally as a memorial to her ,und secondarily, for his personal use. Peddlers, business projectors and the unemoloved talent of the city nave called" with such aggressive regularity that the door bell refused to work, ana the knob dangles from its socket, help less and useless. She has a keen sense of the ludicrous, and refers laughingly to the many Incidents which have transpired during the last few days. She continues to be the same cool, practical woman she was, and treats the whole" matter from a most phllo soDhlcal standnolnt. Not so with her brother, William Kelly, Jr., who Is 24 years old and was employed as fireman at the water works. When the glad tidings were broupht him that the Insignificant bar rier of two weeks' time stood between him and fabulous wealth, he Imme diately resigned his job, donned his Sunday clothes and has acted the gen tleman of leisure ever since. He Is living on the brilliant prospects and taking life easy. William Kelly, sr., although mani festing a remarkable calm, does not quite equal his stoical daughter. He now vaguely hints at practical farming, whose profit is a secondary considera tion, and is rather Inclined to believe that Florida offers excellent Induce ments as a place in which to spend the coming winter. He has been confined to his house for several days with a-se-vere attack of lumbago and was unable to fulfill his engagements with his law yers oh Friday or yesterday. This week all arrangements will be perfected and the money will be transferred from the bank In Australia to several banks In New York and this city.' For many years William Kelly has been employed as a gardener at the United States arsenal, and. being a man of weak constitution, has been un able to work for days at a time. The neighbors say that It was a common oc currence to 'see the light burning In Kllzabctn s room at any hour of the night and to observe her, with her head bowed, sewing until early morning on tents and articles for use at the arsenal. Seven years ago she met James Cal- houn! a trained nurse at the Episcopal hospital, and this prepossessing, manly-looking fellow succeeded in winning her heart. Knowing what It would mean to her father and Infant stepsis ter to marry and leave them, she bade him wait until a more favorable day. ALLIANCE OFFICERS.

Major Cfeneral Cauxto Garcia, Marlona Aberlche, Al fred Arango and M. Soto, arrived here this morning on the steamer La Cham pagne from Havre. Calezto Garcia is a famous Cuban patriot who achieved honor In the ten years war for Cuban Independence and who was taken a prisoner when he had attained the rank of major general. His lire was spared by the Spanish author! ties on condition that he would spend the remainder of his life within the con fines of the city of Madrid unless per mission was given him to leave the city oy tne Spanish authorities. Less than a year ago Alfred Arango, Mariano Aberlche and M. Soto were ex iled to Spain with other Cuban patriots, laxen prisoners wnile nshtln? for free. dom.

There they met Oeneral Garcia, now a man of 55 years old. Their stories of Spanish tyranny ana crueuy so nreu uarcla that he de termined to do what he could to secure Cuban independence. General Garcia said the party did not expect to stay in New York more than a couple of dnya and they then expected to start for Cuba. WAJiT JUDGES ELECTED. . Resolution Helativo to the Supreme Court Introduced in the Assembly of knights Lsbor. Washington, Nov. 18. A resolution relative to the Supreme court of the United States Introduced in the general assembly of the Knights of Labor this morning promises to give rise to an ani mated, but rather one-sided argument. it demands an amendment to the con stitution taking from the president the power of appointing members of the Supreme court and providing for their election by popular vote. The position Is taken by the members of the order that the appointment of this court un der the present proceedure removes it too rar from the people and prevents It from being that Independent body which It should be If the laws are to be properly Interpreted. There also appears to be much feel ing In the assembly about what Is termed the misuse of the power of In junction by the courts or the United States and the arbitrary exercise of such writs at the request of large cor porations. Members of the order seem to think that the election of the high est court In the country by the people wouia Dring tne court nearer the com mon people and result In better and more equitable enforcement and Inter pretation of all enactments. Another resolution tha is likely to be called up at any time is that declaring In favor of the recognition of the bel ligerency of the Cuban Insurgents. MR. HARRISON IS RICH. An Investment In African Mlnea Netted 2000 Per Cent. Profit. St. " Louis. Mo., Nov. 18. Ex-Presl. dent Harrison Is said to have become a rich man as the result of speculation In South African enterprises. Nearly two years ago a syndicate. composed of ex-President Harrison, John C. Wright, of the Chase National bank, or New York city, and others, engaged H. S. Sherard, a Montana mining expert, to go to South Africa and give his opinion on a piece of mining property on which they had an option. The property could be bouerht for 123.- 000, and if Mr. Sherard said it was all right the deal would be closed. In re turn for his services Mr. Sherard was to receive one-quarter Interest In the property acquired. Lately the mine was sold and for his Interest Mr. Sher ard received 8200.000 in cash, besides 1,000 shares In the new mining com pany to be formed. The ex-presldent Is aid to have In vested not over 85,000, and for it he gets In return quite $100,000 in cash ana snares in a corporation which promises to pay enormous dividends. MRS.

C Nov. 18. Admiral Rlrkland, who Is now on his way home from the European Station, from which he was recently relieved by Admiral Belfrldge, .will have to answer certain charges the Department will prefer against him or else suffer the penalty of a court of Inquiry and perhaps court martial. The Admiral was relieved from his command because of his Indiscreet statements regarding the Armenian af fair, aad his letter of congratulation to President Faure, which the Department new was unwarranted ana unautfcor- Ixed on the part of the commander of the United States forces In Europe. It is alBO said now that the Admiral has been Insubordinate in his corre spondence with the Department, and has shown a dispositon to ignore any restrictions which the Naval regula tions place on all officers, regardless of their rank.

HOLMES SEXSATION. A Lively Scene at ths Argument for a New Trial-Attorney Shoemaker Held to Ball for Subornation of Perjury. Philadelphia, Nov. 18. The argument for a new trial for the convicted mur derer, H. H. Holmes, was heard to-day In the court of Oyer and Terminer and this remarkable case funlshed another sensation. One of the counsel for the prisoner produced an affidavit in court alleging to show that Pltezel, the mur dered man, contemplated suicide. Amidst the silent amazement of the spectators and the. shocked astonish ment of the court. District Attorney Graham proved the affidavit to be false and showed that Mr. Shoemaker, the atttorney of Holmes who offered it, had paid the woman who swore to it $20 for aoing so. Shoemaker was so overcome by this exposure that he could make no explanation and at the conclusion of the argument he was held in $1,500 ball by the court to answer to the charge of subornation of perjury. Holmes was In court during the argu ment, and he has failed perceptibly in looks since his trial. He has lost the prison bleach, which paled his cheek, and a heavy Hush has taken Its place. His eyes were bloodshot and dark rings around them told of anxious days and nights. H1b manner was not as cool, and unconcerned as It was during his trial, and he showed an almost fever ish Interest In the proceedings. As formerly, however, he retained his self possession, and took notes of the Dis trict Attorney's argument and prompt ed his lawyer during his address. The argument consumed the entire day and the court reserved its decision, but from the questions asked by the judge it seems certain a new trial will be refused. FINED FOR KISSING A MAN. Arrest of Two Girls Caused by an Indig nant Youth. -, New York, Nov. 18. For violently kiaslng Osias Drexler, a good-looking and well-dressed young man, Maggie Keegan, aged 22, and Annie Lynch, 24 years old, were fined if each In court yesterday. "It is certainly a fine state of afiairs when a respectable young man cannot walk the streets of New York without being publicly kissed by a girl," said Magistrate Wentworth, in imposing sentence. Drexler, who is a clothier and lives on Houston street, went Friday evening to visit his mother, in Allen otreet. The streets were crowded with women, tim id, bold fair and otherwise. A group of the bolder suddenly surrounded Drex ler, and, to his ' Intense Indignation, some of them held his arms and three of them kissed him. He remembers three distinct smacks. Then he wrenched himself free and fled down Allen street until he ran Into Police man Farley. The lutter arrested the youth's assailants. "They're what are called 'new wo men,' your honor." the policeman ex plained to the court. "They stand on the corner and Insult respectable men." The girls denied their guilt emphati cally.. The court, however, believed the plaintiff and fined each $2. In default of the amount they will spend two days tn prison, pondering upon the peril attending public and ostentatious oscu lation, REWARD FOR A HEROINE.

CLEVELAND CHANGED? A Report Uas Been Circulated That tha President Now Fnvera the Annexa tion of Hawaii Interest Also Taken In the Cuban Question. New York, Nov. 18. A Washington special to the Evening Post states that in connection with the coming of Mr. Hatch as the new minister from Hawaii the report has been Industriously circu lated from several Washington news sources that' President Cleveland had changed his attitude toward (he so called republic of the missionary chil dren, and now favors its annexation to the United States. It can be stated on the very best au thority that this Is an error, and that, whatever decision he might reach in the future should the question present itself to him In the form of a demand for his approval or veto of an annexa tion act passed by congress, up to the present hour he has had no occasion whatever to address his mind to the matter, let alone deciding upon a policy. The authors of the report about Ha waii have doubtless been misled by something they have learned of the in terst the President is taking In the Cuban question. Strong efforts have been made to Induce him to take an aggressive position In his annual mes sage tn favor of Cuban independence, and to turn his mind towards the view that Cuba Is a necessary link In our North American republican system. To say that he has settled this question either way to his own satisfaction yet would be premature, but that he has given and Is still giving the whole sub ject consideration is a fact pretty gen erally known. Apropos of this matter a statement la of Interst which was made by Senor Depuy de Lome, the Spanish Minister, to a visitor who discussed with him the effect of the recognition of the bellig erency of the Cuban insurgents: "If they had such recognition, na tion would expect them to observe the rules of civilized warfare and stop burning the pillaging plantations. But who would enforce this rule? Aa It Is now, Spain is responsible for the safety and protection of all foreigners In Cuba; but if recognition be granted the insurgents, this establishes a state of war, and Spain is no longer under the same obligation to protect foreigners as she Is when dealing with an insur rection of her own people. With bel ligerent rights accorded, moreover, there would oubtless be a blockade of all Cuban ports, as the first and most decisive means of dealing with a state of war, and this would put a stop to American commerce with the Island. I am not speaking officially, but merely giving you the view of an observer of the situation." CHARGED TO WARD. Coroner's Jury Render VerJIot la Case of Mime rnan. Johnstown, Pa.
