.NEW YORK, Oct. 19. The Republican
campaign opened tonight at Durland's Rid
ing Academy, Fifty-ninth Street and Park
Avenue. The principal speaker of the even
ing was Governor Roosevelt, who was re
; ceived just a3 heartily as when he was cam-
psignlng for himself. The crowd v.3 so
large that an overflow meeting had to be
held.
The Maset committee was represented on
'he platform by its chairman, one of its
er members and two of its counsel,
and the City Club had the Rev. Thomas R.
I Slicer there. Governor Roosevelt, in tho
i coarse of his speech, warned the "Cits"

any other "Republican candidate for the
j Legislature they were working not in the
i interest of good government but directly
against it.

Adtlres.se at the -Three Meeting".
The eighteenth annual conference of the
Unitarian Church, which also constituted
n celebration of the seventy-fifth anni
versary of that denomination, has passeJ
into history. The meetings, which have
been three in number each day since Mon
day, closed last night." " '
The 4G0 Unitarian Churches of the
United states were represented at the
ver -GOO gate. many of
them preachers of national reputation. The
attendance at the meetings has been be
tween 1.300 and 1,400 psople. A pro
gramme has been Carried out with emi
nent success, which has been full of ad
vanced ideas in the line of religious
thought and action. In the efforts of the
speakers there has been manifest a heaity
concurrence, and as the delegates leave
for their homes they are unanimous in ex
pressing the benefit they have derived in
the meetings, and in their enjoyment of
the beautiful surroundings and the mag
nificent fall weather of Washington.
The closinc day of the session was a
busy one. It opened with a business
meeting at 9:30 in the morning, which con
tinued until 1 o'clock. Another session
was held in the afternoon, which conclud

council and members of the committees.
Senator Hoar presided at this meeting,
and after the opening devot'onal exercises,
the resolutions urging a better organiza
tion of Church life were called up anJ
adopted.
Ortfination of Ministers.
Mr. King, on behalf of the business
committee, also reported a resolution gov
erning the ordination of Unitanan minis
ters. The resolution places several re
strictions upon ordinations and names the
oiganizations of the Church which shall
have the power to ordain a minister. After
some debate the resolution was adopted.
Rules for introductions to, or the re
moval from, the Unitarian ministry, were
presented for the approval of the confer
ence. The rules were approved by the fel
lowship committee and were unanimously
adopted.
The Rev. T. C. Williams, ot Tarrytown,
N. Y., delivered an address, taking for his
subject, "Religion and Education," in
which he made a strong plea for the teach
ing of religion in Unitarian schools.
"Religion," said the speaker, "comes
through education and not through a burn
ing bush as it did to Moses." The speaker
had gotten his religion, he said, partly from
an orthodox minister whose views he ana
lyzed and questioned.
"The Church," continued Mr. Williams,
"alone cannot adequately propagate relig
ion. It can do but a small portion of the
work and much must be left to the
denominational schools and church socle
ties. Education of the youth in a religious
way Is the vital method by which religion
can be handed down to succeeding genera
tions. The school is the seed that carries
on the life of the Church. The deep rev
erence ot the English people for religion,"
he concluded, "is the result of the teach
ing of religion in the schools there."
Mr. Moot's Address.
Adelbort Moot, of Buffalo, N. Y., was
the next speaker. He took for his theme.
"Religion and Citizenship."
to the Philippine question,
In referring
the speaker
the principles of the Declaration can be
applied when the war shall cease, and some
may require a considerable period of time
for their application. There will be neither
profit, glory, nor honor in the Philippines
upon any basis whatever except a basis
of absolute justice to every individual,
high or low, friend or foe, there residing.
We have heard too much questioning of
motives, too much calling of names. In
connection with the Philippine question."

' or defence are Institutions created by in-
an aspiration; it Is a hope, and it Is
through the hope of a relation to God that
makes the man of hope something more
than human, something divine. Religion
and sociology compass something more
than correlated forces; they Involve an in
terweaving of interests and recognition of
a common source of existence, of life, of
action, and of human end.
"The struggles of man assume a different
phase- as the development of religious be
lief goes on, and as the development of so
cial relations accompanies religious devel
opment. Tlie Injunction of the great Mas
ter, 'Bear ye one another's burdens,' ia
the consideration of others in as ardent a
way as the consideration of self. It is tlie
balancing of abilities, tho social ideal. So
in the great command of the greatest
teacher of divine truth the world has ever
seen, and of Inspired teachers before and
fcince his birth and death, religion and so
ciology find their deepest expression.

Mr. Brown' Pnper.
The afternoon session began at 3 o'cloek.
Hon. Carroll D. Wright presided and made
a few introductory romarks. "The Uni
tarian Message to Other Branchos id the
Church in America" was the topi; of a
paper by the Rev. Howard N. hrow:i, of
Boston. Dr. Brown declared that the
Church suffered because a certain philos
ophy of religion had been proclaimel as a
divine revelation, and that a complete re
organization was necessary. Re-.. Elwrd
Everett Hale followed with the "l-i.ltn-rian
Message to the Unchurched." He de
fined the work of Unitarianism to be to
weaken the power ot powerful rejig ous
organizations to promulgate erroneois ic
ligious ideas. He declared that people as
a rule did not believe the minister-!. Th"
members of Churches were, for the most
part, the weil-to-do, and not the wnge
earners. Unitarians should take as tbel
mission to the world the work of stowing
the rank and file of men how to In c as
children of God. He said the Prcibvtetian
Church had become involved in :hc evil
of aristocracy and autocracy. It was nec
essary that the exercises of worsh'p shou d
be adapted to the minds of plain people.
"The Message of tho Unitarian Onurch
to Our Own People" was the theme of the
closing address of the afternoon session
It was delivered bv the Rev. Samuel A.
Eliot, of Boston. He began with the re
mark,. "Our greatest effort should be to
make the indifferent different." It was
sometimes disheartening, he continued,
that Unitarians seemed to care so little
for their own work. For every one active
ly engaged there were 500 looking on. In
formation should not be mistaken for obg
dience. An inactive familiarity with truta
leads to contempt for truth. The largest
gift that anyone can bring is the gift of
personal usefulness. He said that as this
was the seventy-fifth anniversary of the
American Unitarian Association', $75,000
ought to be raised for its work.
TheEveiiixR Session.
The evening service was conducted
throughout by Rev. Samuel M. Crothers,
D. D cf Cambridge, Mass.
"Cleanse your conscience from dead works
to serve the living God," was the text on
which the closing sermon of the conference
was based. The turning of the soul from
the old sin to a new form of righteousness
was ordinarily called repantance, said Dr.
Crothers. There was another kind of re
pentance, and that was the turning away
from inactivity to a life of god work and
new endeavor. There ar no- obstacles to
a full determination on,, the part ot any
man to reach the "highest type of man
hood, said the speaker, ij. i3 tho limit not
of reality, but the limit of personal thought
that was baffling. The fault of allowing
one's own dead good works to stand for
their character was a great mistake. Each
day brings an entirely new opportunity,
but we are oftentimes shut out by the
memory cf yesterday, fro,m making fresh
progress. There wa3 a constant danger
of mistaking the forms of re
ligion for the religipn itself. No
doctrine, ho continued, e,ven though It
be the best doctrine, canfake the place of
the mind that thinks, and the individual
who acts. A daily cleansing of mind and
conscience wero the requifcitC3 of u new
life and led to the kingdom of heaven.
ABHORED SHOPS SCATTERED.
o Kail Exercises for the North At
lantic Siiaadron.
The abandonment of ike regular fall and
winter exercises of the famous North At
lantic Squadron has been decided on by
the Navy Department. As much as the
department desired to keep the squadron
together as a unit of naval efficiency and
strength, it was impossible to do so, on ac
count of conditions which could not be con
trolled. With the arrival yesterday of the
battleship Indiana at the Brooklyn navj
yard and the arrival of the battleship
Texas at the Norfolk navy yard, the dis
solution of the armored fleet which proved
so powerful in the war with Spain had
been partially accomplished.
Naval officers who are interested in main
taining the squadron say that it cannot be
re-formed baforc February, and perhaps not
then. The recommendation of Admiral
Dewey that a strong naval force be main
tained In the Philippines and the necessity
of repairing some of the vessels are re
sponsible for the disintegration. The ar
mored cruiser Brooklyn has started for Ma
nila, the protected cruiser New Orleans is
expected to follow her this week, and the
Indiana and Texas will ba under repairs foi
some months. This will leave only the
cruiser New York, the battleship Massa
chusetts, and the cruiser Detroit for squad
ron service.
As the Detroit is in Nicaragua looking
out for the American interests, the two
battleships are the only big vessels on the
station unassigned. It has been determined
by the department that they shall be sent
to sea to conduct extensive experiments
with wireless telegraphy systems.
In February or March the squadron of
evolution may be re-formed. The Indiana
and the Texas will be out of the bands
of the workmen then, the New York and
the Massachusetts will have completed

go Into commission. These six big iron
clads would make the nucleus of a fine
squadron of vessels. The cruiser Atlanta
will probably be serviceable, and the De

170 MATT, CENSORSHIP.
Opening of I.etiern to ami From the
Philippine Denied.
The Postmaster General has received
from F. W. Vaille, superintendent of the
mails in the Philippines, a letter treating
of alleged censorship of soldiers" mail
sent from Manila.
"I wish to state positively." write Mr.
Vaille, "that there has never been a single
letter for the States opened in this office,
or opened by anyone after it was mailed
at this office, and before its despatch to the
States. It is inexcusable for anyone con
nected with the army in Manila to make
the assertion that there was any censor
ship of the mails. The postal force here
havo all they can attend to in the line of
their regular duties."

A PUHII MILL ABLAZ1
Fire Destroys a Twelfth Street
Woodworking Plant.
Tv-o Stnhles Adjoining; the Place Are j
unmavrcil Ten Engines at Work
on the llnmlng- IinlldliiKs The
Flames Discovered After Making
Considerable Headway The Losses
A fire which was discovered shortly be
fore midnight last night resulted in tha
destruction of the plant ot the Washing
ton Woodworking Company, in Twelfth
Street, between Ohio Avenue and B Street,
northwest, and in damaging to a consid
erable extent the stable of John Simmons,
which adjoins the planing mill on the Ohio
Avenue side, and the stable of M. H. Sul
livan, which runs through from Ohio Ave
nue to B Street, and adjoins both the other
buildings. The estimated loss is between
20,000 and $25,000 and the Insurance is
about half that amount. The planing mill
building is the property of tho American
Security and Trust Company. J. J. Hogan
owns tho building occupied by the Sim
mons stables, and Dr. Thomas, of Mont
gomery county, Maryland, owns the one
occupied by the Sullivan stables.
The origin of the firq could not be defi
nitely ascertained last night, but there
seems little doubt that it started in the
Iort ot tho Simmons stable. Policeman
J. P. Lallor turned in the first alarm, and
chemical engine No. 1 was soon on the
scene. Lallor was standing in front of
No. 1 station at 11:30 o'clock, when a
colored man came running up to him and
said "the stable is on fire." The police
man ran to the fire box. but on finding ic
out of order, he went into the station and
telephoned the alarm. He then r.an to tao
piace of tho fire and is positive in his
statement that the Hames were issuing
I from the second and third story windows
of the Simmons stable when be arrived.
Foreman Proctor, of chemical engine No.
1, corroborates this statement. It vaa
soon apparent that the fire was spreading
to the upper floor of the mill, and three
additional alarms were turned in. This
hi ought out ten engine companies, and the
work began in earnest. It Was 12:15
o'clock, however, before the fire a3 sub
dued. The first work that was performed by
the firemen and officers was the removal
of the horses from the stables. Twenty-five
horses were led from the Simmons stable,
and four from the stable belonging to the
mill. These were all taken out before
any harm had como to them. For some
time the fire seemed to be issuing from
every upper window in both buildings, and
the firemen surrounded the buildings on
three sides and directed tha streams from
tho ten engines into the windows. It
looked as if this only drove the fire to
the centre of the building, and It was soon
apparent that the roof was eaten through. (
as a large column of fire shot up out of the
centre of tho building high Into the sky. j
A ladder was placed on the adjoining build. ;
ing on B Street, and a hoso was run to the
roof. Effective work was done by turn- j
inir a stream into tho centre of the burn- I
ing building from this point. The firemen j
had ample room to work in, as the block I
is short between Ohio Avenue and B Street,
and the burning building was accessible on
three sides.
The Washington Woodworking Company
succeeded the Hammond Planing Mill Com
pany in the premises, and has been in op
eration about two years. The firm con
sists of O. T. Bailey, manager, and J. F.
Merrell, J. Brezerall, and John Huggln. ,
Mr. Bailey left the building Just a few min
ute before the fire started, having been en
gaged in office work. Ho wa3 found last
n-ight at his residence, 213 Eighth Street
southwest, by a Times reporter. He was
positive that there was no fire in the build
ing when he left at 11:30 o'clock. He was
unable to give an accurate estimate of the
value of the plant and stock on hand, but
said that $5,000 would doubtless cover th?
cost of the machinery, and perhaps ?4,000
the stock. Themost valuable woods were
kept on the ground floor, and it may be that
some ot these can be used. The mill em
ployes from twenty-two to twenty-five men,
and their work ceases at 5 o'clock. No
night watchman Is employed.
It was reported last night that it was
the custom of a number of colored men to
sleep In the loft of the Simmons stable. This
could not be positively ascertained, but
from the stories of the police, the fire
seems to have originated in thi3 building.
The insurance on Hogan's stable Is ?2,000,
and the damage Is estimated at ?5,000.
The police arrangements at the fire
were perfect. The reserve from the First
precinct was early called out. and Lieut.
Amiss quickly arrived on the scene and
took charge of the force. A large crowd
gathered within a few minutes after the
first alarm was sounded. Valuable as
sistance was rendered by the police in
the work of removing tho horses and
property from the burning structures.

OBITUARY.
Andrew Jacobs.
Andrew Jacobs, one of the best known
vacht captains in the vicinity of New York,
died at his home in Fire Island Avenue,
Babylon, L. I., Thursday, aged eighty-two
years. Years ago he took out sailing par
ties, among whom were former President
Arthur and former Senator Madden, of
Newburg. When tho ship Elizabeth, was
wrecked on Fire Island and Margaret
Fuller was drowned, he took Bayard Tay
lor, who was then a member of the "Tri
bune" staff, across the bay to the scene
of the wreck.
Leslie E. MacLeod.
Leslie E. MacLeod, editor of the "Trotter
and Pacer," died on Wednesday afternoon
at Bellevue Hospital, New York. Mr.
MacLeod disappeared from his office about
three weeks ago, and his whereabouts
was unknown until word was reached
there Thursday that he had died at Bell
evue. The cause of his death was tuber
culosis and pneumonia. Mr. MacLeod was
known to the horsemen all over the coun
try as a writer on trotting horses. He
was a native of Prince Edward Island, and
came here in 1SSS, as associate editor of
"Wallace's Monthly."
Fnthcr KtiffiMie O'Crowney.
Word was received In New York Thurs
day from Los Angeles that the Rev.
Fathor Eugene O'Growney, who had been
living at Trescott and Tucson, Ariz., for
the past threa years for the benefit of his
health, was dead. Father O'Growney was
born in Ireland thirty-seven years ago.
When he was ordained he was recognized
as probably the best master of spoken Irish
next to Dr. Douglas Hyde. He became
editor of the "Gaelic Journal," succeeding
John Fleming. Under his guidance the
movement, which had, up to this time, been
of a scholastic nature, became a national
one. He was made president professor of
Irish in Maynooth College, and this branch
of the college grew to such proportions that
every priest leaving this school must catry
with him a certificate showing that he is
qualified to take charge of an Irish-speaking
community. Text books were scarce,
and he wrote his "Easy Lessons in Irish."
Four years ago he broke down and came to
this country in search of health.
To Test the Ivt"nrnrjr-'s Turrets.
The- Naval Board on Construction at the
meeting yesterday decided to recommend
to the Secretary of tho Navy that tha New
port News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock
Company be instructed to put tho super
imposed turrets of tho battleship Kear-'
sarge in working order immediately, with
out waiting to complete the vessel, in
order that this style of turret might be
tested to enable the Board on Construction
to decide whether it is practicable. The
board is divided on the question of put
ting superimposed or two-storied turrets
on the three battleships last authorized,
and desires to find out how those -n the
Kearsante work before putting such turrets
on or omitting them from the designs for
the others.
