Fifty two thousand scholars march in Brooklyn Sunday
A late Sunday School anniversary in Brooklyn drew fifty two thousand scholars in procession. Captain James Sanderson, former owner of Milwaukee's original site, has died at the Home of the Little Sisters of the Poor in Milwaukee. He once held great wealth but fell into poverty before his death. Crown lawyers in London plan a revised extradition treaty between America and England and Minister West is said to coordinate with Washington on the revision.
