When the St. Lawrence Presbytery, In session here yesterday afternoon adopted the report of a committee commending the dissolution of the relations between Hev. William M. Cleveland, brother of the president, and the church at I'huu mont, of which he has been pastor, it was supposed that the Chuumont church troubles were ended. Pastor Cleveland however, Is provlnp himself a stubborn fighter. He has entered a protest to the Presbytery against the dissolution of the pastoral relations, on the ground that it Is against the will of the majority of the congregation, Involves the condonation of palpable offenses against the church, turns over the church to the control of a party unworthy to rule and without suitable influence In the community and Is against the true Interests of religion and the church. The Presbytery entered the protest tipon Its minutes with a statement that In so doing it does not assent to the validity of the position assumed by Mr. Cleveland, and here the mutter rests f t present.

FIGHT OYER SOLDIERS' HOME Lively Speeches Provoked in the lloass on the Re-election of Board of Man agers of Soldiers' Home. The Dupont Case. Washington. April 15. It was made pretty clear from Hn Incidental remark In the senate today that the predic tions as to an early adjournment of congress are not likely to be verified. The slowly moving Dupont election case has been taken up, and Mr. Gray lUetn.. Del.) was In the act of begin ning an argument against the right of Mr. Dupont, when the chairman of the committee on appropriations, Mr. Alli son' (Ken.. Iowa) made an inquiry as to the time when the election case would probably come to a vote. Mr. Mitchell (Hep., Oregon), chairman of tho committee on privileges and elec tions, said that there were at least half a dozen more speeches to be made upon It, and that therefore he coild not fix any time for the vote, although he was anxious to have the case dis posed of. He consented, however, to let the matter go over, when Mr. Gray should have llnlshed his speech, so as to make way for tho Indian appropria tion bill, the naval appropriation and Mr. Poller's resolution for an Investi gation of the recent bond Issues. "That practically means." Mr. Gor man Interposed, "that the Dupont case Is not to he dlsiiosed of until after the last of June." . t , Mr. Gray occupied- over throe hours In the presentation of the case against Mr. Dupont's claim to the vacant seat from the state of Delaware; and had not finished his speech when the senute at 5.S0 p. m. adjourned, after an exe cutive session, until tomorrow. Practically without opposition, and without taking a yea and nay vote, the senate this afternoon in executive ses sion ratified the treaty with Great Brit ain providing for the appointment of a commission for the assessment of the damages growing out of the seizure of vessels engaged In sealing In the Her lng sea. There were one or two verbal but unimportant amendments. Bills were passed In the senate ns follows: Amending .the act providing l''ir the protection of the sulmon fish eries of Alaska. To provide for the private sale of public lunds In Missouri. Regulating the incorporation of medical and dental colleges In the Dis trict of Columbia. oint resolutions authorizing the wearing of o rosette or knot of ribbon in lieu of meduls of honor awarded by the acts of 1862 and 1X63. AN OLD BATTLE RENEWED. The old fight against the re-election of General W. B. Franklin as a mem ber of the board of managers of the National Soldiers' home and against the retention of Colonel A. J. Smith as governor of the home at Leavenworth, Kas., was renewed in the house today, occupying nearly nil of the session anil will rage until 3 o'clock tomorrow. It came on when Mr. Hull, chairman of the committee on military affairs called up the Joint resolution reported from that committee, providing for the elec tion of General Franklin and O. W. Steele (a representative from Indlanu) to succeed themselves as members of the board; of General T. J. Henderson, an ex-member of congress. from Illinois, to succeed General John C. Black, e'x commlssloner of pensions, and of Gen eral G. L.- Beale, of Maine, to succeed General Fessenden, of the same state. Mr. Blue (Rep., Kas.) moved to strike out the name of General Franklin and Insert that of General O. O. Howard, and upon that addressed the house for two hours. He bitterly arraigned Gen eral Franklin's administration as presi dent of the board of managers, declar ing that he was virtually the board, dominating its policy and action. He charged, he said, from the record, that General Franklin was either grossly negligent, grossly incompetent or was not honest. He held that he was re sponsible for the retention In olllce of Colonel Smith, whom he accused of drunkenness, frequent and continued, up to the present time "vomiting, crawling drunk" and of brutality to the Inmatea of the home under his charge. General Franklin and Colonel Smith were defended by General William Cur tis (Rep., N. Y.), a member of the com mittee on military affairs. Mr. Poole (Rep., N. Y.) and Mr. Henry (Rep., Conn.) and these officials and the board of managers by General G. W. Steele (Rep., Ind.), a member of the board. Mr. Mahon (Rep., Pa.) proposed an amendment to the Joint resolution pro viding for a Joint congressional Inves tigation of the charges of drunkenness and brutality against Colonel Smith, the oilicer to be removed by the board of managers, should a majority of the committee find the charges to be well founded. The matter was still pending when the house adjourned at 5 o'clock. The house adopted the resolutions unanimously reported by elections com mittee No. 3 that Robert Morgan (Rep.,) was not elected, and that R. C. Latimer (Dem..) was elected a representative from the Third South Carolina district and that the latter is entitled to hold his seat. CUBAN CORRESPONDENCE. The president sent to the senate to day a formal letter in answer to Sen ntor Hoar's resolution calling for the Cuban correspondence. With the let ter is a large mass of papers composed of the correspondence of 1S75 and 1878, when General Grant offered to medit ate between Spain and Cuba. .Of the letters sent to the senate most of them have been published. They show how the offer to meditate was made, re ceived and rejected. The correspond ence does not contain any intimation of the rumored offer of President Cleve land said to have been made recently. In fact the correspondence does not deal with any action of recent date and Is therefore very disappointing to the Benntors who had hoped to gain some Information as to the president's policy. The administration senators say. however, that the president has only carried out what the- resolution asked for and that was the correspond ence between 1875 and 1878, and that It did not contemplate the correspondence of recent date. They further state that this correspondence is valuable and Im portant at this time, for it will show to the public what precedent the president Is acting on In what they claim Is his policy now of offering mediation. KNOCKS OUT PROHIBITION. Decision in South Dakota Sustaining Snloon Lieenso Ordinances. Yankton, S. D., April 15.

An appeal was taken from the justice and circuit courts of Yankton county from a verdict against a saloonkeeper for selling liquor without a license. - lie contended that the city ordin ance conflicted with the state const!-, tutton, which prohibits the sale ut liquor. Now the supreme court sus tains tho ordinance. ' MUMMY-MAKING PROCESS.- Toledo I'ndortakor Preserves Bodlos as in Olden Days In Egypt. . I Toledo, o:, April 15. Physician find scientists are greatly Interested In the work of Karl Mathias, a Toledo under taker. In the mummifying of Albe C. Weeks, of Warren, N. H who died suddenly on the train in this city a few wevks ago. Mr. Mathias claims to have discovered the original Egyptian process of preserving bodies of the dead. All the organs are left in the body and the heat and chemical pro cesses have not perceptibly changed the general appearance. The skin Is as hard and as brown as leather. Mr. Mathias says that the exper'ment has proved a thorough suc cess, and the rays of the sun or ex posure to the fiercest test of the ele ments would not affect the body. FRIGHTENED TO DEATH. An Indiana Woman Thought Her Grand son Was Being Kun Over. Crawfordsvllle, April 15. Mrs. Lof lan was frightened to death last eve ning. She heard a noise In the street, and reached the door just In time to see a runaway team pass by.
