William McCreery, General II as limes and others who bar borne tb burden of th work of rescue and relief, nud pledged a million dollars from the State treasury, upon conditions which were satie&ed at one. There will be no extra session of the legislature. A State eemmistton, with the Governor at its head, will take control of the relief work on Wednesday. It wan proposed that the State fnrnleh SI,0W,0) to General Beaver for imme diate use in clearing up cd restoring Jewnstowa. In order to make the State whole, t7,o hundred citizens of Fitts burgh. Pbiladdlphia and other portions of it will become individually responsible until the Legislature meets and makes appropriations that will relieve them. This plan was unanimously agreed to. It vm also arranged that on Wednesday morninr. General Hastings, acting for Governor Beaver, should take chars of the work o! policing the valley and clear ing it up, including Johnstown and the surrounding boroughs. Governor Bearer .left at seven o'clock. The Cerrraer ef I'euHvylrania and the Kfllrt Cemniltti-e. PnrswraoH. Pa., Jnae .The aacer tain relations of Governor Beaver and the ;ritt hurra committee for the relief of the Johnstown sufferers, has given rise to a great deal of discussion and no little expression of feeling within the pat few day. The Leader instituted an inveeti--Ration and publishes to-day n Ion; article condemning the Governor's seeming neglect In withholding large sanu of money .sow in hi possession, and his tardiness in heeding the popular call for a special Jession of the State Legislature for the jwrpose of appropriatiug fund? sufficient te cover the cost of the public work. But 4,00kof the &),0$O subscribed in this oity mm so far been ued as the donors intended for the relief of the personal necessities of the victims, the balance is Jteld as a reserve fund for the payment of the wages of Booth Flyna's laborers. This part of the work, the contributors hav: freely confessed, was in their opinion, the province of the State, which has a health bureau. They blamed the Governor, not the relief committee, for the diversion of the fnnd to the laboring gangs from the sufferers, ami were practically unanimous in demanding that a special session of the Legislature, to appropriate money for the removal of refute aad ruin, and consequent protection of public health, be convened without farther parley. If thi be done within the next couple of days, the relief committee can release for the sufferer' beueit the same it is -now, in expectation of being coatpeled to pay Booth & Flvnn. holding in reaorve. If it U not done, the t-ufferer will probably continue suffering with meager assistance. The Chicago relief committee, who arrived here yesterday, stated very emphatically that the relief money should, -in their opinion, go directly to the sufferera. They were so emphatic, indeed, that a story got out crediting them with daeiiuing to turn over to Chairman McCreery a large sum of money theybrouglit with them to be dijtribated in the manner indicated that is, in payment for clear.Isg away tile debris. i Said Chairman McCreery last evening: "It k trae that they did at first think the weney should go direct to the sufferers, Ml after we had explained matters to them, they said our action in putting the city in good condition was perfectly right, the State being expected to refund the money afterward. I had only talked to them ten minute when tbey handed me a cheek for $M,O0O, aad we have since .received two other checks from Chicago." .Ike State Will D It nair-Oatl4e - OoMtrlbatleet a Seered Trmt. "Johxstowx, Pa.'i: June .In an interview Governor Beavar said that he had b-ta over the entire flooded district, and found the supply depots well filled, but they must soon be replenished. "I found the stream filled with debris and aceamulated drift, in which there is a possibility of human bodies being imbedded, nrith a probability, If allowed to remain, that they will endanger publie health, leer lag it iniprasaed on ay tuivl that the police powers of the State must be exercised to restore things to their normal eeaditlott. The funds which have come lata my hands in such large amounts and from so mauy quarters outside the State, mmI which have been imposed upon me as a sacred trnst, will be expended wholly and absolutely tor the benefit of individual sufferers. "o part of it will lie expended in work which is legitimately the domain of the State under lbs police powers. This I wish to emphasize so that all subscribers to the fund may be assured their money will be judicious aad economically spend for the benefit -of suffering humanity aad not to the work which should aad will be undertaken by the State or municipal authorities.

In response to a request of General -Hastings. Counterfeit policemen aad deputy sheriffs, in the full panoply of a tin star aad a club, were as easy to and as an old tin can. A pair of shears aad a pieee of stair banister was all that was required, and tbey could not be told from the genuine. Ctinirmin Scott and General Ilaitingi issued a supply of cards to Chief of Police Hart, to be given to all otteers, and told him all without them woald be arrested. The chief pat them in his pocket, and four of his men who could 1 net show eardi were arrested by Mann's men. Chief Hart got angry, and ordered Id men to shoot anybody who interfered wilh them. He was thereupon arrested Himself, taken before Chairman Soott, and tauirbt tlio limits of his authority.

I have plenty more if you do." t Quick as a fiaah eame the reply from the foreman: "I think we have heard enough. We I would like to retire," 1 IIU colleague nodded assent, and at 4:45 p. m. the six men tiled into the coroner's private ornoe. The doors were closed, and guards placed on the outside as a bar against eavesdroppers. At sis o'clock a request came out for supper aad it was served from a neighboring res tan rant. About half-past nine the coroner left the court-room after stating that it had been decided to hold Alexander Sullivan and s-everal others. The names of the latter have not yet been agreed upon. It was within a few mlnntes of ten o'clock when the foreman intimated that the jury bad agreed upon a verdict. Only Coroner Herts and a small knot of spectators were iu the room. The verdict was read in slow and impressive tones: We, the vndcrsutned, a Jury apjolted to make inquiry according to law as to hew the body viewed by n eame to his death, state as our verdict from the evidence: i 1.

The majority of those named are prominent officers of the Clan-na-Gael. Immediately upon the verdict being rendered. letuty Sheriff Palmer, Eroderick and Williams drove in a oarrlage to tbe residence of Alexander Sullivan on Oak street in the orth Division. Even on this critical day the coolness which has characterized the noted Nationalist , from the opening of the investigation remained with him- Although the jury had retired before he had left his law office under the shadows of the county build , lag, and he knew full well that his arrest was inevitable before morning, he was in bed and fast asleep when the deputies arrived. They had expected to flud him awaiting them and snrrouuded by his friends. Instead of this, his law I eterk. Henry Brown, and the domestics were the only occupants of the houe. He responded with alacrity to the flummons, and in a few minutes was up aad dressed. lie said nothing when the warrant was read, bat with a self-possessed smile accompanied the officers to the carriage.

As soon as he looked up from his work Mrs. Arnold began her presentation speech, first iu English and then repeating it in the Sioux tongue- for the benefit of the assembled chief. At the conclusion of her address, which was of the regulation school-marm style, Mrs. Arnold handed the trophy to the ex-Governor, who accepted it with the remark that au Ohio man was never known to refuse any thing. As Foster received the gaud present, the feathers in which rival th rainbow in the variety of their colors, General Crook, took Chief Swift Dear, the leading Indian here, aside nud asked him to give Governor Foster au Indian name.

They had not understood Hie predictions about a resurrection, and hence derived bo comfort from them. To them He I was uo longer the Messiah, because lie was dead, and they tttougnt tne juessian never sould die. So they were ia despair, awl gk om settled ia their hearts and winds. Ia thix condition the women came to the grave early on the rirst day of the week. What h appened to them, and especially tbe experience of Man, may be seen ia to-day's lesson. With a heavy heart Mar? eame to the tomb while It was yet dark. She knew that z great stone had been rolled over the door f tbe sepuleher.

"We trusted 'hat it hal li'-en He who should have redeemed Israel." And wben God suffered Htm to be thus cruelly put to death tbe ftith of tbe disciples must have been rudely shaken.
