repeatedly in response to the outbursts
of cheering. When able to make tiim- j
self heard, after a few preliminary re
marks, he moved the following resolu
tion, which was received with a thunder
of applause, the audience rising, waving
hats, handkerchiefs, - sticks and ' um
brellas: I
"Resolved, That this meeting trusts
that her majesty's ministers, realizing
to the fullest extent the terrible condi
tion in which their fellow Christians are
placed, will do everything possible to
obtain for them full security and pro
tection ; and that the meeting assures
her majesty's ministers that they-may
rely upon the cordial support of the citizens-
of Liverpool in whatever steps
they may feel it necessary to take for
that purpose."

Republican Campaign Literature.
Chicago, Sept. 24. Perry S. Heath,

attempt is being made to change the is

said Mr. Heath, "we have sent out over
130,000,000 pamphlets on the currency
question alone, and are now sending ont
3,000,000 every week, through the me
dium of country newspapers, etc.
"But I think at the same time, that
the tariff question will play an important
part in .the campaign from now on.
Where we now receive one request for
literature on the currency question we
receive four for tariff literature, and the
demand is constantly growing. Speakers
all over the country report an increasing
interest in the tariff question." :
