Governor Northerns Letter.
“There will be a meeting of the Busi
ness Men’s Gospel Union at the Wes
ley Memorial church, corner Auburn
avenue and Ivy street, Tuesday eve
ning, at 7:10 o'clock.
“We are anxious to increase the
membership of the union from the
ranks of Christian men who are will
ing to help the community to better
Christian living, and to aid In the sal
vation of the unsaved. We desire also
to broaden our activities through an
auxiliary organisation, to be composed
of the active Christian women of the
city.
"Persons who will Join us are ask
ed to give names, street addresses and
church at Ihe Tuesday evening meet
ing, or by post, If It Is not possible
for them to be present at that time.
"Reports will be made by the several
committees covering the results of the
recent Torrey-Atexunder mission. All
of the officers for the ensuing year will
be elected, and the gospel union will
be entirely reorganized. .
"The main business to be considered
will be the conservation of what we
have gained and the planning tor an
uninterrupted campaign against evil,
looking to the strengthening of the
spiritual life of the churches and the
salvation of men from the penalty and
from the isiwer of sin.
"There Is always more or less of a
decline In religious activity after
revival, dependent upon the Interest
and efforts of the Christian community.
This we must prevent In this Instance
as far as it Is possible, with God's
help. We may be sure the devil Is go
ing to be far more active and com
plete, and his attacks are made and
conducted on thoroughly Systematic
plans. He does personal work moro
thoroughly and far more effectively
than we can withstand without God's
power to help. He not only works
personalty, but through his agents and
representatives among the thousands
of men and women who are in hla
active service and employ. He never
sleeps. His long continued activity haa
made him more than an adept In the
Interests of His kingdom.

Chicago, June (.—Political agents of
John R. Walsh, it la reported today,
are endeavoring to mollify Secretary of
the Treasury 8haw in his demand that
the Chicago banka must get rid of
Walsh’s depreciated paper at' once and

Chicago National Bank.
This demand Is said lo hare been
made by Secretary Shaw last Friday in
consequence of alarm felt by tbe treas

tutions of ths Walsh failure as the

to the clearing house committee was
coupled with u hint that he would oth
erwise have to order some of the di
rectors to make good on the loan.
Following Mr. Shaw-’a visit an at
tempt was made to form a syndicate
which would tako over the Walsh se
curities and also, advance money to
complete the railroads which they rep
resent. So far the attempt lias not
been successful.
The situation has become acute.
That the developments are serious Is
manifest because of the friendship be

would probable prevent any federal
