Rebellion Breaks Out in the Salva

(Copyright.)
New York, Sept. I.—Rarely does it occur
to the average New Yorker that the
metropolis affords a field for the talents
of empire builders unequaled by any city
in the world. Os this fact the pres
ent condition of the Salvation Army
affords striking evidence. Unknown to
most Americans, Wallington Booth, com
mander of these eccentric legions, has
become so powerful as to have success
fully defied the authorities, but at present
he has on his hands a rebellion among his
troops that seems likely to require all his
military skill, if he is to suppress it at all.
As very few are aware, the revenue of
the Salvation Army has now grown to
' . enormous pro-
‘T
commander booth, come auxiliaries,
and the dollars flow in with encouraging
regularity. The great building of the
army, of which the corner stone was re
cently laid, is to be an architectural tri
umph. The banners and uniforms of the
troops have begun to assume genuine
military luxuriance, and! the various sta
tions are no longer cheerless and bare,
but snug and comfortable. In the case of
the officers of rank, the improved condi
tions are quite noticeable, for they-live
well and are by no means pinched where
money is concerned.
But as prosperity came, so did dissen
sion. The rank and file began to com
plain that they were being ground down
under the weight of despotism. Now, it
is true that the government of the army
is military in every sense of the word,
and, a$ staff captain marshall recently
put it, “when you’re in the Salvation
Army you do as you’re told.”. But. ac
cording to the complaints preferred by
various barracks, the rank and file have
no show at all. • Favorites, like Capt.
Patty Watkins, are promoted over the
heads of the veterans. Another griev
ance is the Importation of recruits from
England to fill soft berths. It may not be
known that the Salvation Army is a very
foreign organization. Ballington Booth
is an Englishman, and very naturally he
prefers his countrymen when promotions
are in order. But so great was the griev
ance when several new men recently came
over from England to fill commands that
appeals to the alien contract labor law
were threatened. However the matter
was smoothed overby Commander Booth,
and promises are alleged to have been
made that remuneration would be raised
to a decent living scale. The women of
the army are particularly incensed be
cause they are forced to enter saloons to
sell copies of the War Cry, the literary
medium through which salvation news is
disseminated in this country from the
official standpoint. It is to this practice
that recent intemperance among the army
women is attributed. Not a few have
been seen intoxicated on the streets of
Salvationist ha? nothing in particular to
do, she is obliged to sell War Crys if she
wants any money. ’
All these grievances culminated in a
series of visits by Salvationists to the
army headquarters on Reade street, and
Commander Booth is alleged to have
promised some amelioration. He also
agreed, it is stated, that the pripe of
army insignia and uniforms, which are
sold from New York, should be reduced,
and, further, that no more Englisn were
to be imported, but that Americans
should have some chance for promotion.
For a time matters appeared to be
smoothed out, but the commander is said
to have feared the results of his compli
ance on the Salvation regiments through
out the country, and to have “slumped,”
to use the term applied to his action by
his disgusted troops. The great revenue
of the army is pretty well drawn upon as
it is, and a general increase of pay would
prove embarrassing'.
The New York barracks determined
upon revenge. Owing to the pecuniary
influences which have been brought to
bear upon the Army the cruder forms of
its war upon the devil have boen aband
oned New Yorkers no longer see the
Salvationist transparency: “Why pay
sixteen cents a pound for mutton when
you can get the Lamb of God for nothing*”
while the hymn, “Hooray for the Lord”
has even given way to “Lead, Kindly
Light.” But the soldiers made a sudden
return to primitive forms of combat. In
three different barracks things became so
noisy that whole neighborhoods were
kept awake night after night.
Tambourines were thummed, drums
were pounded, shouts rent the
midnight air, and in a general way
pandemonium reigned. The very result
longed for by the sly Salvationists ensued.
One fortress of the Lord was raided, and
a whole regiment was paraded to the po
lice court. Naturally the commander
was embarrassed, and it cost him more to
rescue his troops from the qlutcbes of the
law than it would have done to increase
their pay all around.
And all over the city the same com
plaints arose. Salvationists are as noisy
as'. Salvationists can be. The holy war is
making sleep a lost art in many parts of
New York. Neighborhoods are circulat
ing petitions and general distraction
reigns.
But the commander will not give in. He
is asserting his authority in Napoleonic
fashion, and the battle grows active with
out the least suspicion having yet been
aroused in the minds of the chief suffer
ers as to the real source of the difficulty.
DR. BVRTSELL'S COMING.
Dr, Richard L. Burtsell should be in
New York by this time. He was expected
last month, and his arrival is awaited
with infinite eagerness, in view of the
liquor problem now attracting national
attention to the
Catholic church.
The doctor was
known to be in
Paris during the
first week in
August, and it
has been stated
that he went to
Rome as advo
cate of various
deposed priests
throughout the
country. and
upon his return
will have docu
ments likely to
make him as
great an author
ity In his way as
Satolli himself.
Be this as it may, it is certain that he
will return in triumph, if he returns at
all, and since he js one of the greatest
living authorities on canon law. it seems
likely that his plea al the Roman court
would not have been made unless he felt
•ure of success. Had it not been for Dr.

country. Not

Burtsell’s efforts Dr. McGlynn would
not now be restored to his priestly func
tions.
It is not exaggerating matters to say
that Dr. Burtsell is the one man upon
whom theattention of the American Cath
olic clergy is fixed, and that he will
shortly be back in the United States is a
piece of news from the ecclesiastical point
of view of the first magnitude.
MORE POLICE HUMORS.
For some days rumors have been circu
lated in New York that the resumption of
the police investigations by the legislative
committee, which so recently drew na-
inspector william?. is well to leave
matters as they are. since the committee’s >
authority is, after all. limited, and the
people are as thoroughly convinced of the
existence of colossal, police corruption as
they can be.
Inspector Williams, who is as famous a
policeman in his way as Byrnes himself,
is credited with knowing all the ins and
outs of this business, ana to be able to tell
some things about the coming doings
when these investigations are resumed
that would make “mighty interestin’
readin’.” However, he keeps his own
counsel and general uncertainty pre
vails.
But the Parkhurst brigade have heard
the rumors, and according to a letter
from the doctor himself, there must be no
cessation of inquisitorial activity until all
the corruption in high places is revealed.
Dr. Parkhurst and Inspector Williams be
long to the same political party, but their
fiersonal relations are far from cordial,
nspector Williams is accused of having
found out some of the secrets of the Park
hurst crusaders and to have passed around
the “tip.” The situation just now is very
much like a complicated game of-chess
and both sides must play carefully to win.
The police are by no means without
resources in this contest, as the ‘reform
ers may learn to their cost.
One of the charges now going the rounds
is that the police have sought damaging
information about the past of some of the
investigators and mean to hold it over
their heads as a sort of hostage to discre
tion.
DE LAUDE CALVORUM.
Senator Hill’s baldness has grown so
pronounced in these latter days that he
uses, unknown to
most of his ad
mirers, a hair re
storer, with re
sults that are by
no means notice
able as yet. The
secret appears to
have been be
trayed by the ex
cessive zeal of an
admirer, who sent
a dozen bottles of
a capillary en
couraging com
pound to the cap
ital addressed to
the senator. senator hill.
Tho senator himself is not' pleased at
this desertion of him by his hair, but is
reported to be sensitive to all allusions
with reference to it. Nevertheless he
recently revived various forgotten classi
calities and quoted from the 700 allitera
tive Latin lines, all beginning with “c,”
which are written in Draise of the bald.
The sally made a hit and its repetition
resulted in a general bestowal of hair re
storers on the senator, who thereupon de
clared that the greatest men in history,
from Caesar to Bismarck, have been more
or less destitute of hair. Some one. his
tory is silent in the matter of his name,
asked the senator if his recent support of
Mr. Cleveland was based upon any such
consideration. The laugh that ensued
was conceded to be at the senator’s ex
pense. And Mr. Hill took it all in that
suave, calm way of his which, more than
anything else, makes for his personal
popularity.
Senator Hill, by the way, is becoming
one of the best authorities in history in
congress. He is an omnivorous reader,
and the felicity of his comparisons and
perorations is due in no small degree to
the immense range of his general informa
tion. The present congress is noted for
the presence of numbers of unusually
well educated men in it, and among them
Senator Hill is by no means last.

interested in Japanese railroad
projects, and investigators here look
forward with interest to the move
ments of the Oriental. It appears that
the Tokio government has had differences
with various chartered concerns which
have been treated rather cavalierly in the
readjustment of interests that ensued
upon government control of the railways.
The Japanese themselves, however, are
very friendly to Americans, far more so
than the Chinese are. This autumn will
witness qui tea social plunge on the part
of the Mikado's representative in the
swim of the Four Hundred. All thecivili
ties are said to be inspired by a desire/o
haxe a favorable report made to the
Japanese state department on the subject
of those railroads, but Orientals are not
more easily caught with chaff than are
the rest of our fellow creatures. In the
matter of the railroads they have cer
tainly outgeneraled some New York
financiers.

it is a noteworthy fact that in recent
years the financial thoroughfare has been
losing much of its monetarv prestige.
This is owing to the dread of the Street
by bankers who do a large business
throughout the country. They fear the
impression produced by an investment
. concern in any way associated with Wall
; street. The name itself has been given
an ominous association by the stream of
invective hurled against it. When Grover
Cleveland retired from the Presidency he
would under no consideration retain his

cretion is imitated by the many states
men who have occasion to open offices
near the financial center of the metropo

New York, Sept. I.—The demi-season is
upon us with all its disadvantages. The
girls are returning everyday in a healthy
brown condition. They went away to re

plump and round for the city gayeties.

is being tried, with more or less success.
If the cold weather continues most of
them will immediately take up a course
of training to harden their muscles and
dispose of the somewhat bourgeois ful
ness of cheek.
But a more difficult problem than the
matter of one’s physical condition pre
sents itself. Most women have absolutely
nothing to wear. The light, pretty sum
mer dresses that were all right for the
summer resort, are sadly out of place in
the city streets. And the one or two
gowns that served for rainy and chilly
days, and for traveling, and are no longer
fresh and spotless. The serge hasn’t its
old smart hang, out droops here and sags
there in a dispirited manner. And the
summer girl looks rather dejectedly upon
the pile of useless dresses that have been
taken from tho trunk, and wonders
whether she will have to sit at home
until a new dress can be made.
There are two or three solutions to the
problem. A simple and satisfactory one
is to purchase a plain skirt of dark blue,
gray or black cloth, covert, cheviot, or
one of the waterproof cloths—since you
will want it for the autumn rains. You
can get one of these for a small sum, just
at this time of the year. Then select the
quietest and best-looking of your sum
mer-waists. have them laundered or
pressed, as the case demands, and wear
them with your fresh, jaunty skirt.
Another, and a perhaps more satisfac
tory plan, is to buy an entire cloth suit.
Just now they cost about half what they
did in the early summer. You would, per
haps. be surprised to see the neat black
suit which vou can purchase for sl2
skirt and fashionable coat, with double
breasted effect in front, cut-away, and
wit h the long, full skirt effect in the back.
Such a suit will last well into the fall;
and then can be bought for even less than
the sum named.
For the maiden with a full purse 1
would say, get you a new tailor-made suit
at once. The fall materials are coming
out —a little slowly, it is true, owing to
July’s excessive heat, which dulled the
faculties of the creator of our novelties
to some degree. , But now they are com
ing to our shores, and in another week
or two we shall have them all with us.
Those that have come clearly indicate
that some of our fancies of last year have
gone by, while others will be revived in
new guise. For instance, the combina
tions of color are seen in many of the new
materials, but combinations much softer
and quieter than of yore.
We also learn from the great importers
that crepons will be among the favorite
materials. And this is not to be won
dered at, when we consider that crepon
appears in so many forms and designs.
Those of this season, thus far, are varied
and beautiful. The greater number of
them show a ground work of one color,
over which are thrown stripes or designs
in raised mohair or soft chenille effects.
One of these latter is'particularly beau
tiful. The ground is an uneven stripe of
black crepon and pink silk, then black
and blue silk. Over this is a dotted effect
in cut chenille or plush, in the shades of
golden brown, shading from a delicate
yellow into rich seal tints. The whole is
most brilliant, and soft withal. >
Another crepon has a dull heliotrope
ground, .with a black chain stitch in
mohair, forming a stripe.
Another produces a block effect by
stripes of dull sage and dull plum color,
with another stripe, crossing these, of
the curling mohair effect in black.
A most dainty silken puckered novelty
9 •
w *
is shown in clear, golden brown, with the
fine puckers formed by small open stripes,
more like eyelets than anything else, that
run closely between.
A rich, dark blue has curving, dashing
lines thrown over in raised black. A
brown, all of one rich, dark tint, is made
of stripes in long undulations, each being
about two inches wide. The alternate
stripes have a lustrous, satin effect, as
contrasted with the plain crepon be
tween.
A black and olive blending form the
ground work of another, and its raised
design consists of regular, close polka
dots of black.
A queer material, known, however, as
jerepon—for lack of a better name. I sus
pect—is made of fine lines of dark green
and dull gold—the latter being actual
gold threads—closely interwoven. The
whole is woven so that it falls in snaky
curves, producing a fantastic appearance
as it lies in folds.
A reminder of the spring styles is a
dark brown, whose surface is covered
with twisted threads in true harlequin
tints.
There are also a few novelties in camel’s
hair, notably a rich blending of peculiar
green and grayish tints, which would
make up into a most stylish costume.
But these fanciful, expensive materials
—they cost from $3 to $5 a yard—will not
be worn to any extent. A few of the
fashionables will make them up for this
peculiar demi-season. but by far the
greater number will wait until the season
advances.
What is now being sold to great extent,
in the shops, is the satisfactory, enduring
English cheviot. There are some beauti
ful varieties in iron, silver and blue grays,
and a suggestion of the pinkish tints is in
some. This material is fifty-eight inches
wide, has been thoroughly shrunk, and
costs $2.75 a yard. It takes five yards
and a half for a full suit—admitting of a

long coat and full sleeves. It is of very
close weave, thick and warm, and will
last through more than one season.
Satin-fa’ced woolens are also shown—a
novelty which consists of twilled wools
so lustrous as to fully deserve the name
they bear. They possess an advantage
over the cheviots, for this particular time
of the year, in being of somewhat lighter
weight. Some of these are double-faced,
with the one side of a lighter tint than
the other, and showing the twill more
clearly. In such cases one side is utilized
tor trimming the costume.
There is but little difference in the
September suit. The coats are a little
shorter, the sleeves very wide, and the
skirts clear the ground and are well
stiffened at the back.
A jaunty Paris design shows a jacket
which stops short at the waist line. Its
revers are "broad and pointed, and curve
inward and down the front, narrowing to
the waist. A large button fastens them
to the bodice, and another button trims
each side of the jacket, below. Dainty
pieces of cream lace relieve the plain,
broad vest of the material, which shows
between the revers. A ribbon belt, just
in front, falls in a short bow.
The other is far simpler, and more to
the American girl’s liking. Its skirt has
four divisions in front, joined by narrow
bands of black passementerie or braid,
which also edges the bottom. Its plain
bodice opens all the way down, although
narrower below the bust, to admit ora
white front. Long stole revers, starting
from the shoulders, lie fiat until they are
caught over the bust, beneath a large
button each side. Two other big buttons
finish the points of the bodice, which run
slightly below the belt line, in front.
MARRIED A SPOOK LOVER.
It Must Be So, for May Bangs Herself
Tells the Story.
From the New York Sun.
Onset, Mass., Aug. 25.—May Bangs, one
of the Bangs sisters, materializing
mediums and independent slate writers
of Chicago, .was in the cabinet room of the
Happy Home Cottage at Onset Bay at
4:30 last Tuesday afternoon, when she de
clared positively and without any provisos
that a person of flesh and blood in this
life could be married to a materialized
spirit. She declared that a woman from
the west, a woman of wealth, had been
married in the very room in which she
sat.
“I materialized the form,” she said,
“and the lover came out of the cabinet at
tired in the uniform of an army officer.
The premises had been previously ex
amined to prove that there was no mortal
about. The materialized spirit asked
that the curtains be drawn for a while to
shut off the front parlor. The bride
wanted him to put on her slipper, and he
did.
“Only a faint light shone through from
the room where the minister and others
we»e waiting. He kissed her numerous
times. The bride was in a new wedding
dress. Then the materialized spirit lover
requested that the marriage ceremony be
Derformed, and the request was granted.
He placed a ring on her finger. They
were together a long time that evening.”
The reporter, who investigated the
spiritual marriage, had heard from other
sources of such a matrimonial event, and
from two different persons he had heard
that the woman in the case was from the
west; that she was wealthy, well edu
cated and a woman of refinement. She is
said to be a firm believer in spiritualism
and has long known the Bangs sisters,
Lizzie and May. She is about 35, short in
stature, plump in form, and dresses ele
gantly. Another account of the wedding
from the lips of one who claims to have
possession of facts is this:
“On the night of Aug. 8, which was
Wednesday, everything was ready for
this strange ceremony, and the wedding
party, consisting of about half a dozen
persons, was within the walls of ‘Happy
Home’ Cottage, the home or the Bangs
sisters, which is but a few rods distant
from the grove where all the big spirit
ualistic meetings are held. Miss ——,
who was to be married to the one who
had passed away, had purchased flowers,
and with her own hands had decorated
the rooms. Curtains covered the windows
just as at a seance. A single dim light
was burning in the parlor, just a candle
in a box. the tiny flame being subdued by
blueglass.
Lizzie Bangs and the minister were to
be seen in this front room next to the
street, surrounded by the floral display
of ferns and lilies. A cheese cloth had
been hung across the double doorway
which led into the cabinet room behind.
May Bangs came tripping down the
stairs and entered the dark little apart
ment where the spirits first made their
appearance. She was followed by the
bride, who took a seat in the cabinet
room and awaited the appearance of the
spirit who was to become her husband.
May Bangs materialized the form of a
late captain in the army, who, when in
life, hailed from Maryland.
An ordained minister then went through
the marriage service, and at the close de
clared the couple to be husband and wife.
When the minister, who-is a woman, at
present in Vermont, finished, she was
heard to say that she hoped it was really
a materialized spirit that was married,
for if it was a man in earth life he was
married sure enough.
It is rumored that when the Bangs sis
ters start for Chicago on Monday two
young men will go with them, One of
the&e young men, who struck Onset with
I
s.
only $2 in his pocket, has been spending
money lavishly of late.
“I’ve struck a snap,” he said to a re
garter. "I am going to Chicago with May
Bangs, but I’m going to get S6O in my fist
before I start, or I don’t go. I’ve had a
promise of 815 a week and my board bills.
Have you heard of the spirit marriage?
It took place all right. The spirit groom
was George—Capt. George—Somebody.
They wanted me to put on a uniform and
. represent the groom, but I was out with
May once, and Miss bobbed up sud-
! denly, and May had to introduce me to
i her. so the girl knew who I was.”
The strange mariage has been the talk
• of Onset for some time, but as most of
; those there are deep-dyed Spiritualists.
; they think it nothing unusual.
i This peep show recalls with a differ
ence the famous spirit marriage in the
familj r of the late George D. Carroll, once
of Dempsey & Carroll, stationers, who
wasted much of his substance on a me
! dium named Fanny Stryker. Carroll
had lost a young son. and though the
medium never materalized the youth for
him, she did act as priestess in a “spirit
marriage” between the bov and “Bright
Eyes,” a ghost with no family name
Elaborate engraved invitations for the
ceremony were sent out. and the priestess
officiated in white uncut velvet The
elder Carroll died recently in compara
tive poverty, and the medium buried him.
