Clerical Wit.
The witty bishop of Oxford was once
waited on by a clergyman who came to
lodge a complaint against a brother
cleric, whom he accused of ritualistic
practices.
"For instance," said the aggrieved
clergyman, "does your lordship con
sider it right for a priest to kiss a
stole?"
"Well," replied Dr. Stubbs, very
gravely, "I think there would lie bet- '
tor ground for complaint if lie stole a
kiss."

WORK Hin PUSHED
No More Delay incomplet
ing Our Cruisers.
Secretary Herbert Hays Ship Build
ing at the Navy Yards Has Been
Lagging for Years—Contractors
Are Also Allowed To Escape from
Fines Imposed.
Washington, Sept. o.—Secretary Her
brrt last evening stated that published
statements that he had ordered work on
vessels under construction to be expe
dited were entirely correct. "The ships
building in the navy yards have been
lagging for years," he said. "For a long
time the delay was for want of armor,
but armor is now being furnished
promptly. The Texas and the Maine,
the former of which lias just been put in
commission, and the latter of which will
be in a few days, really ought to have
been in service months ago. Officials at
navy yards naturally desire to keep a
regular force steadly employed, and the
disposition is to take workmen from the
ships that are building and do repair
work with them, putting them back
when the repair work is completed. Not
only have the Texas and Maine been de
layed by this practice but also the moni- |
tors Terror, Monadnook and tlie :
Puritan. All those ships ought to be j
now in commission, and I have ordered
that they lie pushed to completion. Pre- :
cisely the same reasons which have ;
operated to delay the building of ships 1
at navy yards naturally influence con- j
tractors. They are some times tempted j
to neglect government work and use t
part of the force on the government ships j
to do outside work as it comes in.
"The contracts all provide penalties
for failure to complete work in time. :
Penalties for delay have frequently been
imposed upon contractors by the navy
department, but, unfortunately, congress ;
has in almost every instance, when it |
was asked, relieved against these penal- j
ties. The effect of such acts is neces- J
sarily demoralizing. The department, has ;
recently given orders to push all work 011 ;
navy yard ships and has also been urging
the contractors to increased diligence. It :
is to be hoped that penalties incurred in
the future for delay will be allowed to j
stand.
"There is really nothing about ship j
building that now renders it difficult in !
the United States. No good reasons can ;
be given whyjships authorized l>y congress i
should not be completed with reasonable j
dispatch, and I am simply insisting 011
prompt compliance with contract obliga- j
tions. We have already shown that we j
can build ships and guns equal to any in 1
the world, and I hope our ship builders, j
who are now looking for contracts ]
abroad, will demonstrate to the world j
that ships can be built not only as well j
but as rapidly in the United States as '
anywhere in the world. Of course I am ,
pushing along the manufacture of ordi
nance and everything else at the same
time."
INGKKHOLL ON SPOOKS.
Gives Ills Reasons l'or Attending a
Spiritualist Camp Meeting.
Kim wood, 111., Sept. o.—Concerning
his recent appearance at a spiritualist
camp meeting, at Onsete Bay, Mass.,
Robert G. Ingersoll yesterday gave the
following characteristic interview to a
reporter: "The spiritualists are liberal,
willing to hear all sides, and so they in
vited me to speak at their meetings. Of
course I gave them my ideas with perfect
candor, and they treated me with perfect
fairness. I am not a believer in spiritual
ism, because I have never had the evi
dence, the facts, to convince me, but I have
no objection to their ideas if they turn
out to be true. I believe in intellectual
hospitality, and I think that most of the
spiritualists, in spite of my infidelity,
are 1113* friends. In no respect have I
changed my belief. I am just as ortho
dox us ever, and still believe that facts
without faith are better than faith with
out, facts."

OUTLOOK OF BUSINESS.
Now York, Sept. 7.—DUU'H weekly re- j
view of the condition of business will
to-day say: There is 110 real reaction in |
business. Gains which were recognized j
as temporary are vanishing, but there j
remains a decided increase over last year
at date, although prices average 8.8 per
cent, lower than a year ago. It needs
fio keen observer to see that the reaction
against rapid advance of prices is st rong.
Hides were the first to rise, but a decided
break has come. Coke was suddenly
raised to $1.40, but has recently sold at I
sl.lO. Wheat jumped over 20 cents to
84, but is now slow of sale at ab >ut 65.
Wool was late in rising, but has lost
about an eight of a cent in average price
within the past fortnight. Iron still
rises, the miners' strike having hindered
shipments of ore, but with troops guard
ing, the ore begins to move. Cotton is
strong, but has paused. The general I
tendency to curtail purchases where |
prices have notably advanced grows j
clearer in boots and shoes, in wool, and ;
in some products of iron.
In the boot and shoe industry many I
shops are discharging hands, and in J
woolen manufacture a few works are
closing for want of orders. Shipments ;
of boots and shoes now fall below last |
year's or those of 1892, and except in ,
split shoes there are but few orders. 1
Dealers ure distinctly slow to buy ail- j
vanced prices. Hut holders of wef tern
hides who refused 9 3-4cts. a fortnight !
ago are hunting for buyers at 9 cts.
Sales of wool which averaged over 10,-
000,000 lbs. per week when great specu- ;
lative stocks were being taken, have '
shrunk to 5,880,500 for the week against I
7,557,800 for the same week in 1892. The
average for 104 grades is now 14.68 cts.
against 14.48 a year ago and 22.81 in j
1892. Manufactures buy slowly because :
business in all men's goods is dull, par- j
ticularly in medium and low grades.
The brightest feature in all the horizon
is the certainty that the crop of corn will
be enormous. Frosts now can only affect
a small fraction, and the surplus will go j
into the manufacture of meats, because '
at 85.7 cents at New York, near 4 cents
lower than a week ago, there is no other I
profitable use for cum. The latest re
ports of wheat threshing induced the best
western judges to raise their estimate of
yield over 40,000,000 bushels, and with j
450,000,000 bushels added to 70,000,000 j
bushels brought over, thejsupply will ex
ceed all probable demands. The price has !
again dropped about 8 cents, and with j
western receipts of 4,550,104 bushels, j
against 5,564,210 last year, the western
farmer seems again to discover that
holding back wheat is a losing business. :
The railroads have gained .03 of 1 per j
cent, in earnings over last year for
August, the last week doing better,
though the tonnage eastbound from
Chicago was 7 per cent, smaller for the
month than in 1892, and the earnings of
all roads were 14.8 per cent, smaller. ]
Hopes of coal settlement still deferred •
ami continuing exports of gold cause un
easiness. The demand for commercial J
and manufacturing loans and for the
west is somewhat larger, but the money j
markets are still easy. Failures in four
weeks of August showed liabilities of !
$8,046,237, of which $3,844,832 wey* of
manufacturing and $1,053,385 of trading
concerns, against $10,139,477 last year in
all, $3,173,330 manufacturing and $5,- ;
077,553 trading. Failures for the week
have been 186 in t he United States against ■
219 last year.

WARNED BY KQORBS
They Tell Armenians To
"Arise and Flee."
Obstacles Interposed by the Turkish
Government to the Rebuilding of
A filleted People's Knitted Homes
in the Valley of Moitsh—Sufferings j
Aggravated by Prospective Famine
New York, Sept. 10.—Herant M.
Kiretchjian, general secretary of the j
Armenian Relief association, has given I
out to the press the following, containing 1
a direct communication from the |
valley of Moush, being an extract from a
private letter, not written for publica- '
tioii: " The remnant of the people from
the Sassoun region have returned to
their villages. They are rebuilding the j
ruins, but the government is raising ob- 1
stacles, so that the rebuilding may be
retarded. The government has let loose
the Bakrantsi Koords over the hills of 1
Sassoun. Our people who have returned j
to their ruined villages are in terror and
dismay.
Warning from Friendly Koords.
"Koords who are friendly with our j
village have sent us word, saying: 'For !
the love of God. arise and flee, that you ;
may save your lives. The government j
lias brought the Bakranstl Koords for
the purpose of utterly exterminating
what is left of your people.' This lias
thrown the poop!** into great anguish. ;
Last year they had some arms to defend
themselves. This year they have not 1
that means of protection and are in j
utter extremity of misery. We see no ■
hope of assistance from God or from
men."
Sufferings Aggravated by Famine.
This will help to explain also the |
meaning of a dispatch to the London ;
Daily Telegraph to the effect that the
horrors of the present famine around the
whole region of the massacre are aggra- i
vated by the fact that peasants of a por- 1
tion of the Sassoun district, not having !
enough land to raise sufficient wheat for j
their sustenance, were in the habit of j
purchasing t lie remainder from Diarbe
kir in exchange for fruit and other pro- j
duce they could raise. But now, with
hostile Kurdish tribes, that were leaders
of the massacre of last, year, infesting I
the country, the Armenians dare not i
venture out of their villages for fear of
being attacked. The friends of the Ar- |
menian cause will well appreciate the
value and importance of speedy relief for j
a peasantry without home or provisions j
and soon to be exposed to the rigor of |
the snow storms of a long highland 1
winter.
More Turkish Outrages.
London, Sept. 10.—The Daily News 1
to-day publishes a dispatch from lvurs
stating that fresh outrages have been
perpetrated in the Krzinzian district. A
band 6f brigands attacked 011 Aug. 12 u
company of gendarins, killinga sergeant.
Therefore the Turkish authoritios, with
out. making any inquiry, decided that
the assailants were Armenian re vol u- j
tiouaries from Kemukh, who intended
to release exiled Armenians who are still
in prison at Kars. A force of one thou
sand Turkish troops was sent to Kcmakh ;
and live villages were pillaged. Five j
thousand persons were rendered home j
less. Men were tortured and women j
and children ravished. Four monasteries ,
were sacked. It is reported that, the
Turkish minor officials have formed an !
anti-Christian society to slaughter Chris- 1
tin ns if the porte accepts the scheme of
reforms the powers insist upon.
