Stanley expects to reach Zanzibar In four or Ave days. The Witness Gets Warm. Gilbert Pierce has been formally elected United States senator by the legislature of North Dakota. This caused a sensation in the conference, and Mr. Henderson, the American delegate, at once prepared and proposed the passage of the following resolution: It Caused a Sensation. Stanley h(vi made an unexpected discovery of immense valuo to Africa in finding an extension of the Victoria Nyanza to the south and west. The utmost southerly reach of this extension is south latitude 2 deg. 48 min., which brings the Victoria Nyanza to a point within 155 miles of Lake Tanganyika, and its area is about 26,000 square miles. It is thought here that the Nyassa missions are retreating in the wake of Stanloy's expedition, and an appeal is to be made for authority to give them necessary support. Stanley's Unexpected Discovery. Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. 23.—About 5 a. m. Stoughton P. Hill, a well known telegrapher, committed suicide by shooting himself through the head at the Central hotel, Allegheny. He recently lost his position with the Western Union company as day manager of the Allegheny Central hotel office, of which he had charge ten years, and night operator in the main office in Pittsburg. The Impression is that r Hill committed suicide wlrile under the influence of opium. It M also known that he was greatly worried by domestic and other troubles. Mr. Hill was one of the oldest telegraphers in the employ of the Western Union company. He leaves a widow and a daughter. An Opium Eater's Snlclde. The cross-examination of Beidendender, conducted by Attorney Ingham, was a very searching one. The questions were put to hiin with the rapidity of a trip hammer. He managed, by great effort, to reply in a calm tone, but his appearance betrayed a most uncomfortable frame of mind. At first a few drops of perspiration appeared on his brow. These he quickly mopped away, but others took their place, and still others, until before ho was through the ordeal the Inspiration rolled down his face in streams. minister Ryan Returns to His Embassy. H. W. C. Hppkins, the well known electric healer of Goneva, N. Y., is dead. Washington, Nov. 23.—Minister Ryan, about whose alleged resignation of the Mexican mission so much has been said, will effectually dispose of the rumors concerning his reported action by sailing for his post from New York on Saturday.

Mr. Henderson Defends His Course. Washington, Nov.- 23. —Secretary Noble is considering the rerated cases in the pen sion office. He has about concluded that he can collect money illegally paid to persona who still remain in the employ of the government. Where they refuse to return the monoy received in rerated cases the secretary, it is said, proposes to take summary action. A Popular Reception Proposed. He Saw Cronln Enter. This brought to his feet Mr. Henderson, who iu a short speech eloquently and forcibly explained the motives and feelings which prompted him to offer this resolution. He said: Immediately upon receipt of news of Stanley's arrival at the coast a movement was at once begun to raiso a grand national testimonial to the great explorer, and the preliminary arrangements are already under way under the auspices of men of wealth and national reputation. In addition to this preparations are making to give him an immense popular reception and welcome on his return here about Christmas time. In answer to the attorney's questions he said he could not tell who pointed Dr. Cronin out to him, but some one did, and be was very familiar with his looks. Hla attention was attracted to the rig by the haste with which the doctor and his companion departed. A little further along he said that before driving away a third person cHine up and held a conversation with the doctor, who took something out of his pooket and gave it to him.

At Wilmington, Del., seven men have been found guilty of participating in the race riot at Dobbinsville, Sept. 7, in which an innocent Pole was killed. "The motion to lay the resolution on the table !s not debatable, and I don't wish to say anything except by way of persoral explanation. I offered tho resolution without consulting with my colleagues from the United States because I saw the gentlemen from Brazil here and supposed they had authority to act for the republic of Brazil." Here he was interrupted by Senor Valente, who said the delegates from Brazil had just presented their credentials from the republic.TO FOLLOW BEECHER'S LEAD. Elihu F. Harris has been appointed postmaster at Flushing, N. Y. Scientists Are Eager. Cardinal Haynauld, archbishop of Colocca and Bacs, has totally lost his faculties of reading and writing, while all his other faculties remain unimpaired. Widen the Congregational Breach. Plymouth Church, of Brooklyn, Will A detailed account of his journey, together with authentic news from Emin, is awaited with great interest, and tho geographical societies are On the qui vive for data which will explode or confirm the hitherto accepted theories of the topography of the country traversed by the intrepid explorer, of which previous knowledge has been extremely vague or totally lacking. Geologists, too, are on the alert for information touching the mineral resources of the dark region, and in fact everybody who has taken the slightest interest in Stanley's trip, Emin'a researches, or Dr. Peters' unfortunately fruitless attempt at Emin's relief is in a happy frame of mind in anticipation of tb« forthcoming revelations. "How' long did this conversation last?'' asked Attorney Ingham in an unconcerned manner. Tbe cause of tUe tragedy is of long standing. Early laat apiing, in Kay, Petlua was affiled on tbe slreeta of Brooklyn by lira. Sjuthworth, who gave bim a vigorous horsewhipping. The mailer waa hushed up, out of regard to Ptttua' Liith social staiioo. lire.

Since the whipping Mis. Southworth has been txceediDgly reticent, never referring to the matter and avoiding Peilus at all tines. Brooklyn, Nov. 22.—It having become necessary for a Congregational council to be called to ordain and install Assistant Pastor Bliss, of Plymouth church, and there being an awkward question as to whether oi not to invite certain churches hostile to the late Mr. Beecher to participate, it has finally Deen decided to merge this issue into a large! one and to make the council a distinctly liberal one, representing tho line of doctrine that Mr, Baeclier leaned toward, rather than the stricter interpretations of some other leading clergymen of the church. FURS! FURS I "Ob, four or five minutes," replied the witness unsuspectingly. The following fourth class postmasters havo been appointed in New York state: A. P. Littell, Altay; W. J. Ossman, Grassy Point: H. M. Burton, Romulus, and Melinda Pelsue, Stark. "And yet you say that the doctor came from the house and departed in great haste?" The Circle of Republics Complete. Our assortment is immense and—we simply don't permit any house, no matter where, to undersell us. Mr. Henderson, continuing, said: "If that be the case, then, Mr. President, that completes the circle of American republics. We have no differences here. We are all republicans. I am sorry that any of my friends who represent other governments should be placed in any embarrassing attitude regarding this matter. So far as I am individually concerned I should hail with equal pleasure the announcement that Spain or England or Russia or any other European nation had adopted a republican government. To me all places are proper and all times convenient for the enunciation of my faith in republican institutions. The inconsistency of a hasty departure and a departure occupying five minutes was painfully apparent to the witness, and his face turned very red. He bit his Hp, and then tried to bridge over the chasm that had suddenly opened In his testimony by saying that he meant the. hast* with which the doctor got into the buggy. The secretary of war has awarded the contract for furnishing one pneumatic gun carriage at the ordnance proving ground at Sandy Hook, on or before Oct. 81, 1890, to the Pneumatic Gun Carriage and Powder company of Washington.

The cose will be tried this term of court. Mrs. WaiHcrman Indicted. One lot French Hare Mufla at 38c. 50c. 75c. and $1. Monkey Hare Muffs for $2.50 up. The split of the New York and Brooklyn Congregational churches into Beecher and non-Beecher factions was caused fully as much by Mr. Beecher's radical interpretations of doctrine as by the action of Plymouth in expelling Mr. Tilton without consulting a council, though the latter was the immediate occasion of tho rupture. It Was Peculiar Knowledge, The Koplrische Volks Zeitung (olerical) states that the Pope has signified bis willingness to arbitrate the Irish question in case he is asked to do so by the English government or the Puiuellites. This morning she left her home in Brooklyn, tUiing that she intended making noae purchase* "over in New York." It was quite early, in fict much earlier tbaa was warranted by her ostensible mission.

Overtaking Petlus at the market, ahe began Bring, w.th ihe result as above given. He first heard on May 15 that Dr. Cronin was supposed to have been taken away with Pinnn's horse. (This was seven or eight ■lays before the publication of such belief.) He did not tell the authorities of what he knew because he had no interest In doing so. He hud told some of his friends, however,' and they had probably told Attorney Forrest, who summoned him last August. The Lnigue Severely Denounced. London, Nov. 22.—Sir Henry James con tinued his argument for The Times before the Parnell commission. His denunciation of tho Irish National league was very severe. He said that the moonlighters acted more as burglars than as the league's police, buC they were never reproved by the leaders until February, 1880, when the Parnellitei were supporting the government. The leaders then refused money to certain district! because the outrages therein brought discredit on the head men of the party. Sir Henry referred to the Manchester murders, and said that the murderers had been held up to the Irish people as heroes worthy of imitation. Mr. Davitt had unveiled a monument in their memory, and there was other ample evidence that the murderers' example had been lauded as worthy of being followed.Monkey trimming for 75c per yard, worth $ 1.25.

"I am not afraid to announce it now and , here. I am only sorry that any representa- j tive of a republic must hesitate to give the announcement his most cordial approval. In this case I see especial cause for action. , If I understand the situation in Brazil, the revolution is complete and perfect; and better than all, it has been carried to success without blood, but with the united voice of the people. It is now an accomplished fact —the greatest and the most beneficient of all achievements of the kind, on this con- I tinent. New York, Nov. 82.—The annual synod of the Roman Catholic church in this diocese was held in St. Patrick's Cathedral, Archbishop Corrigan presiding. There were present in all about 400 of the clergy of tho diocese. An allvention was delivered, i« which decrees of the council of Baltimore and of former synods were confirmed Six consultary were appointed, three by the archbishop, namely—Monsignor Preston, Monsignor Donnelly and the Rev. Father W, F. Wayrich, and three by the archbishop on the recommendation of thD' "lergy, namely—the Rev. Monsignor Farley, the Rev. James H. McGreen and the Very Rev. Dean Mooney, of Newburgh. Aunut&l Catholln Synod. Plymouth now proposes to ignore local embarrassments and lead a wide movement for bringing the two bodies of doctrine in the church into open contrast. Only such churches will be invited to the coming council as represent the advauced theology preached by the late Mr. Beecher and now expounded by Rev. Lyman Abbott, Mr. Beecher's successor. Among those invited will be many prominent men of the church who have become identified with the liberal wing in the recent discussions on the highei criticism, future probation, etc.—men like Dr. Griffls, of Boston; the Andover professors, the liberals ' of the Yale faculty, Rev. W. W. Patten, etc. It is believed that the council will inaugurate a pronounced liberal movement, and have an important influence on the future history of the church. ltrutal Mmrder at Elizabeth. Newark, N. J., Nov. 22.— Henry Wurtroan, aged 34 years, employed by the Dwyer Bros, at their raco truck at North Elizabeth, was murdered last uight by three colored men, alse employed at the race track. He received four terrible stab wounds, the one causing his death entering his back and penetrating the lung. His body was found on West Grand street. One of the men, Paul Holland, was captured. WurtmaD won considerable money on the races yesterday, and it is supposed the murder was committed for robbery. The witness said he remembered that while standing in the doorway from which he saw the doctors two or three black horses, three or four gray and three bays passed. The horse which took the doctor away stood between him aud an eleotrlc light, but as it was still daylight, no shadow was oast. As the witness left the court room he was summoned by the state to appear as a witness. lire. Southworth is a handsome woman, ibout thirty-five years of age. In feature she inclines to be round and plump. Sne is a oruoette, with long, curling hair and eyes that, when she wes visited by a reporter at pol ce headquarters, were wild and bright. Pet'us is her senior by about four years. He has sandy hair and beard. Mrs. Southworth refused to talk. "The changes of government in all other cases on this hemisphere have been attended with long and bloody struggles. In the case of Brazil the republic comes full formed, pledged to the observance of contracts, the preservation of law and order, and the protection of civil and political rights. My proposition is that, at this moment of time, when the Brazilian delegates have returned to us bearing the credentials of their republic, when every delegate here represents a free people, we shall promptly testify to our joy and give new evidence of the faith wnich animates us as republicans. A Bloodless Struggle, The expert testimony was then taken up, Professor Marshall Ewell and Dr. H. M. Mayer being examined. Both professed pro(iciency in microscopical observations, and declared it to be impossible, in their opinion, to detect the difference between the blood and hair of a horse or a dog and those of human beings.

Wig ton, secretary of the Glamorgan Iron company, has been placed under $15,000 bail tc answer a charge of forgery preferred by John R. Fell, of A. Pardee & Co. Mr. Fell charges that Mr. Wigton altered the date* on a note for $10,000. Mr. Fell says thfl note is an old one and was paid some tim« ago, but that Wigton resurrected it and i1 was sold by R. B. Wigton, father of tht secretary, who is president of the Glamorgan company. Mr. Fell is unprepared to say whether the elder Wigton knew the character of the paper or not. The note was sold for $(D,000 to Charles Smith & Co., brokers. They afterward became suspicious because of the wide margin of discount accepted and called the matter to Mr. Fell's notice. Mr. Fell is a director of the Glamorgan company, but brings the suit as a member of A. Pardee & Co., who are on the note as in- An Alleged Philadelphia Forger. I)r. Lester Curtis, at one time president of the Illinois Microscopical society, was called to add weight to the testimony of Ewell and Mayer.

The police have taken charge of all the r« lies of the encount# and refuse to speak for publication."Do we honestly believe in our governments? Do we believe that republican institutions best subserve the welfare and happiness of the people? Would it bring us real joy that the people under other forms of government should join us in the experiment which we have, by the blessing of providence, carried to success on this continent? If so, we dare not hesitate when a great movement like this shall be made. Our sympathies will not be needed after Brazilian patriots shall have made their government strong as ours. They need the words of eucouragement now. If we have faith in our own provisions, we shall not hesitate. If tho revolution be an accomplished fact our declaration of sympathy is due to Brazil and cannot harm us. if the movement lDe weak it is nevertheless in the right direction. It has no stain of blood on its s&irts. It points to more beneficent institutions, it promises larger liberty. It promises government of the poople, by and for the people, and now is the time to give this simple approval, which may bring happiness to uutnld millions in the future. In all such struggles I am against the favored few and in favor of the masses, and in my judgment there are no occasions when a declaration of that fact can bring harm to man.

London, Nov. 22.—A dispatch to The Chronicle from Berlin says that hope ii generally expressed there that in the event of the Brazilian states becoming split up the 200,000 Germans in southern Brazil will ask Germany for protection. The dispatch further states that it is not improbable that attempts will be made, with the assistance of the colonial party in Germany, to secure th« partial if not complete independenoe of the German settlers in Brazil, whether the atate« disintegrate or not.

Of the Callaghan matter, he says that while he has written letters to The Journal of United Labor, he does not know what letters Callaghan refers to and cannot recall that he ever said anything about Callaghan He is willing that the letters should speak for themselves. He supposes the defeat of Callaghan for the legislature is the conspiracy referred to. He does not know Callaghan personally.
