ABSOLUTELY PURE
REBATE TO BETAKEN OFF.
The Doijilnlon Will Make a Proposition
to tlin United States,
MontIihal, Que., Aug. 15. It Is learned
to-day, that at tho secret meeting of the
Dominion Cabinet hero, on Saturday, it
wasdetided to make a proposition to the
Unlteti States Government, assuring It
that Ctnada was desirous of having most
friemljly relations, and that in order to
avoid all difficulties the rebate on grain
passiijg through tho St. Lawrenco canals
will if e withdrawn at the ond of tho pres
nt season of navigation. An effort will
then Jbe made to have a conference bo
tween the two governments, so that all
diffirences may be adjusted.
Tlio government is anxious to appease
the United States government and at the
sahie time to act with justice toward
tht grain men who have made large con
triJcts for tbe present season on tho basis
of Jtho rebates. An official statement of
th J- government's decision will be pub
lkned iu the ministerial papers and the
proposition will be conveyad to tho Ameri
clin authorities.
The reason tho meetlnsr was held here.
ijistead of in Ottawa, was that Premier
ir John Abbott Is in poor health and
vished to avoid the fatigue ot a journey
o Ottawa.
Tho meeting was held at the Premier's
houso und occupied nearly the whola of
tho day. Sir John Abbott presided, and
all the Ministers with the exception of
secretary of state Patterson were pres
ent. Nearly the whole of the session was oc
cupied with the consideration of the mat
ter of canal tolls and what action should
be taken by the Canadian Government to
avoid retaliation by the United States.
The whole subject was fully discussed,
mid the decision us given above was reach
ed before the session closed.
THE IRON HALL CASE.
All KlTorla at Compromise Have Come to
Naught.
Indianapolis, Aug. 15. Tho forty mem
bers of tho Supreme Sitting, who are in
vestigating the affairs of tho Iron Uall,
are still in the city and say they will stay
until the heuring of tho petition for a re
ceiver is acted upon.
borne of them havo been making an ef
fort to compromise tho case, but this
morning the uttoruoy sayB that there will
be no compromise. One of the stories is
thnt llr. Somerby Is willing to retire us
the head of the order in case tho suit for a
receiver is dismissed, and another is that
Supreme Cashier Davis and Supremo Ac
countant Walker were informed that thoy
might continue to hold their positions as
supreme officers with increased power and
perhaps salaries iu case thoy would in
duce the plaintiffs to dismiss the suit.
Several judges and prominent attor
neys Interviewed to-day express the opin
ion that a receiver ought to bo appointed.
On the evidence already admitted they
say that the evidence shows that
the mismanagement is of a flagrant
character and tiiat the question of the or
der's solvency includes more than merely
its Inability to meet all obligations duo at
the present time.
The hearing sf tho case will be resumed
before Judge Taylor Wednesday.

The Auault on tho Folar Jlrar.
Washington. Aug. 15. The firing of
rifle balls into the pilothouse of the Polar
Bear by a detachment .jlffcinarines from
the United States steamship Yorktown,
lu which the Chief Engineer of tho steamer
was dangerously wounded, may turn out
a serious matter if the engineer dies.
While nothing definite has been received
as to the occurrence, from newspaper re
ports it would seerii that tho Polar Bear
was mistaken by the murines for a poach
ing vessel, and as they had positive or
ders when they wre left at False Pass by
the Yorktown, to allow no vessel to pass
by, they probably ucted u little hasty In
tho matter.

GHORCH ORGANIZATIONS
Statistics of Denominations in
the United States.
NEARLY 150 SEPARATE SECTS.
Extracts From 5upt. Porter's Addreia al
Aabury 1'nrk Sub-Ill vlalona of tlm Hup.
tlst Cliurclira Itomau Catholic In
creaseColored Denominations.
Wakhinoto, Aug. 15. Supt. Robert
P. Porter, in an address at Asbury Park
yesterday, made public the preliminary
llgures of the church statistics of the
eleventh census, which are both curious
and interesting.
There are shown to be in the United
States nearly 150 separate and distinct
church organizations, holding different
creeds, varying greatly in practice, and
representing all possiblo variations of
church polity.
There are various churches that
claim to be simply brethren. There ar
two Reformed churches, known as the
"Reformed Church of America," and
the "Reformed Church in the United
States."
Some of the denominations were novel
numbered before, and It required the ut
most powers of persuasion to induce them
to submit to the process. Sects have
been found and enumerated which claim
less than 100 communicants. Here are
seven sects which altogether number
only about 4,000 members, and yet own
church edifices worth $70,000: Shakers,
Amananltes, Mennonite, Harmony, Sop
arists, New Icarian and Altruists.
All societies observing1 the communlal
life, whether founded on a religious oi
secular busls, are embraced in the re
turns. Two of these societies are not re
ligious, the Icarian and tho Altruist, but
are organized to apply a social principlo.
After the seven great denominations
Cdngregationul, Lutheran, Methodist,
Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, Baptist
and Episcopal, have been accounted for
the other 11U religious associations repre
sent less than 15 per cent, of the church
edifices and less than 11 per cent of the
aggregate value of church property.
Some of the sub-divisions of tbe BaD
tist churches are peculiar. The uninitiated
pei-son finds It difficult to define tho dif
ference between the Seventh Day and the
Six Principlo Baptists, between the Mud
head unci i.e River Brethren, between
the Primiti. .ind the Free Will, between
the original X-'ree Will and the Old-Two-Seed-in-Spirlt,
between tho General and
tho General Free Will. Besides these there
are also the Regular South, the Regular
North, and the Regular Colored Bap
tists. Tho Society of Friends are divided into
tho Orthodox and Hicksite, the Wilbur
ite and Primitive branches. There aro
17 or 18 different brauches of tho Luth
eran churches in this country.
According to the returns of the 11th,
census the number of communicants ia
live principal religious denominations for
which the btutittics havo been completod
are as follows:
Congregational, 512,771; Lutheran, 1,
