ON PRICE OF SALVATION
With "Ma" Sunday In her accus
tomed place Just back of his plat
form "Billy" Sunday was at his bout
yesterday afternaan. It was a ser
mon In which he scolded lazy and In
sincere church people and made them
ashamed of themselves and of their
actions In comparison with their pro
fessions. Before he started to preach
be said a word about the Thursday
night collection. j
"That collection was the first'
thing I've seen in Omaha that dis
appointed me," he said. "It didn't
amount to much. Twelve thousand
people and 500 In the collection!
About the poorest I've ever Been."
This collection on the evening i
vhen the evangelist preached his
eermoft W "The Home" was to be j
Wmctb.i VY'Tiai; In Colorado;
Springs the u lioctjon that night was
ii,8oo. . - !
Mr. Suftdaj"S afternoon text was i
the question of the disciples when '
they were unable to cast out the j
devil. They asked Christ. "Why
could not we cast him out?"
With such dramatic power did the
speaker relate the story of a ship
wreck that a number of women and
eeveral men in the audience burst
out crying. It was the story of a
shipwreck, and while the flsherfolln
on shore looked at the vessel going
to pieces on the rocks they saw a man
in the masthead. A young man on
chore asserted that he would rescue
the mariner. His mother besought
him not to go, as his father and
brother had never returned from the
Be a, but he went and succeeded and
the man he brought back was his
brother.
Throwing: Oaf J?vll.
Tba avangellst showed many reasons
why the church of today la not able to
combat modern vila mora successfully,
why It Is net able to "cast ou devils."
II aid words hat are short and ugy and
shook hla fist at those against whom his
Indignation burned.
"You low devil, you." Mr. Sunday cried
as his eyes roved over the audlnece. "You
alt In your pew in the church and then
go out and work for the saloon. Why,
you're so low down the devil's ashamed
of you."
Mr. Sunday denunced the preachers
"wh are so anxious to get a big crowd
that they have moving pictures and all
sorts of cheap clap trap in their churches.
What la a big crowd if there are no
'devils cast out?" What's the use of
carrying chairs in if you don't "throw
devils outT" He incidentally turned on
hla detractors and vtlllflers, saying:
"If you're writing mean, dirty lies
about me In some so-called church papers
and religious Journals In Omaha and Ne
braska and think you're a follower of
Christ, you're not. You're only the bell
wether of the devil."
Of .the saloon he said: "It's dirty, rot
ton, 'low-down, hell-born, the vilest insti
tution that ever, writhed out of the pit of
hell."
Crack at the Preachers.
He hit tha ministers who try to preach
popular" sermons to set the crowds.
They get their sermons out of the
magasines. or out of current events," he
said with fine scorn.
"They seek something that will interest
the people. What they ,want to do is
Interest the people In the word of God.
And they'll be able to do that if they get

British Trades
Congress Rejects

BRISTOL, England. Sept. 10, The

than three million organised English
worklngmen, rejected by an overwhelm-
i in vote today a resolution calling upon
the parliamentary committee of the labor
prty to formulate and advocate terms
iof peac, ,tiafactory to the working
classes,
Th sponsor for the defeated , resolu
tion said that such a move already had
been mad by German workman,' tu& fhhn
argument brought him no supporters,
Ramsay McDonald, labor member of
Parliament, In an adrcss to th congress,
denied that he or any other member of
the labor party in the House of Com
mons had ever coufaeled Prltlsh working
men to shirk their duty. Such an asser
tion, he added, was malicious and noth
ing hut a perversion of simple declara
tions that the labor party should look
out for itself. The duty of every cltlsen,
he said, was to defend the national
honor.
F. Bevln of the Bristol Dockworkers'
union was chosen by the congress as
delegate to attend the labor convention
at San Francisco. Regret was expressed
at the absence of an American delega
tion to th British congress. The opinion
was voiced that It was extrenly desir
able that thla means of maintaining;
associations with th American labor
union should be kept up.

HALF BILLION IS INVOLVED
NEW YORK, Bept 10. Tha Joint
Anglo-French Financial commission
of six members deputed by Great
Britain and France to adjust the
foreign exchange situation here
reached New York today aboard tha
steamer Lapland, from . Liverpool.
They were met at quarantine by J.
P Morgan and II. P. Davison of the
Morgan firm.
This afternoon the commission will
meet a number of New York bankers
in the library of Mr. Morgan's home
and enter upon negotiations looking
toward the establishment of a big
Toroign credit loan.
The Lapland was convoyed by two
lirltish destroyers through the war

Personnel of Party.
A formal statement Issued on th
commission's behalf was th only s
presninn mad by any member .of the
party for publication. Thla statement.
Issued at quarantine, reads:
"TV joint Anglo-French mission under
the chairmanship of Lord Reading,
which has been sent to th United
Btate In connection with th question
of the exchangee between New York.
London and Paris, arrived thla morning
by th Red Ktar steamer Lapland.
"The British delegates ar th Right
Honorable Lord Reading of Krlelgh, O.

tic of England); Sir Bdward Holdan,

C. B.,'of th British treasury. Th French
delegates ar Mons. Octav Hombrg,
representing the French treasury, and
Mons. Ernest- Mallet,, director of th

UV'The' Joct of th visit of th mission
is to consult with th Antertoan bankers
and others as to th best means to be
adopted for regulating exchanges between
New Tork, London and Paris, in order
that th commerce and Industries of th
three countries may suffer aa little as
possible during th course of th war.
Mr. Blackatt will act as secreiary to th
mission."
Lota of Half billion.
Th first thing, apparently, confronting
th commission is tb making of a pro
gram for meeting American bankers and
discussing th situation. A great deal of
preliminary work, it la believed, will hav
to be disposed of befor th actual tarms

It waa said, unfamiliar with th situation

When they ar Informed on these points
they will tak up tha details of th pro

Thla, it is believed, will b a joint af
fair with Great Britain, Franc and Rus
sia participating. It ha been reported
that it would approximate 1500,000,000. Th
interest rat, it has been said, would be
at least S per oent Tha alse of th con
templated loan, th Interest rata and
other details, however, wer matters
which tha commission declined to dis
miss. In leaving Ekigland th commission
sailed without placing their names on
th Lapland's paasengar list. They
boarded tha vessel only a few minute
before it left Liverpool on th afternoon
of September 1,
Th boat's lights wer
kept darkened until last night, when th

Oerman ar fortifying themselves
strongly In th vlolnlty of Vllna, together

ish feeling Is that oeasatlon of th A us-tro-Oerman
offensive in th east may b
at hand. Such a development would spell .
victory for that faction of th Oerman
general staff which haa argued that th
lengthening of Communications was in
volving too much risk to warrant a fur-
ther advance.

attempting to reoo-rer tha loot ground,

likely that this region will witness some
of th bitterest fighting In th west dur-.
