- The Omaha presbytery met In the 1'resby-
trUn clintvh In thti town Tuesday nlglit nnd
was opened with a sermon by Kcv , J. M. Wll-
HOII of Omaha. Key. H. It. Hcllovlllo of
Wahoo w s elected moderator. Thcro Is u
large attendance of ministers and elders.
Thv presbytery assigned the discussion of the
revision of the confession of faith us a special
order for 10'o'cloek Wednesday morning , the
dt.scus.ston to continue until tlio consideration
of the subject \vaa concluded. At 10 o'clock
today the clerk h giin the calling of the roll ,
each memlKT having ten minutes in which to
fctpiVs ! * his opinion.
The majority and minority reports were
road , tlio llrst favoring and the second oppos
ing roylslon.
lr D. K. Ivcrr , who presented the majority
report , spoke In favor of n very conscrvatlvo
revision. There Is no danger In voting for re
vision , because if a subsequent assembly
xbould hcnd down an overtuiv c-overing points
of revision with which wo could not agree ,
we cou'd ' reject It.
William Hamilton , for over fifty years a
missionary among the Indians , said : "Thcro
lire some standing high In the church whonro
not true Calvltiists. If their views prevail ,
then our CulvnnUtlc system will bo Impaired.
The Infidel world Is rejoicing that the Pres
byterian churches about to change its creed.
1 want the confession to stand. If we revise ,
wo tit onto oi eii tlio door to wide and radical
changes. "
Kov , J. Q. Schalblo of the First German
Presbyterian church , Omaha , said ho was
sorry for that general assembly that made
this trouble. Years ago ho had received a
rjill to a I'rosbytorlan church In Missouri.
IIo told his wife that ho could not go , that ho
could not Ijcliuvo In Calvinism. But they
prayed over the matter and the result was
that ho became 11 Calvin 1st.
Key. .Toaliun Kiulo of Illalr said that he fa
vored a moderate revision. Ho felt that some
inteincnts la the othlrd chapter of the
i-onfcssion were not in proiwr scriptural pro
portion. What was needed was to prepare a
compendium of doctrine which could bo put
Into the hands of the people and let the con
fession stand.
Key. J. S. Spencer of Craig said ho had
s | > cnt some twcnly-flvo years in the Congre
gational church and was a moderate Calvi-
nlst , but the more ho studied the subject ho
tici'limo more rigid in his doctrinal l > oliefs.
He then joined the Presbyterian church. The
laws of exjH'rienco in the Christian world
sustain these Calvinistic doctrines. Pretcr-
itlmi is a law of philosophy. God creates
everybody with tx'fereneo to the conditions
which surround him. Ho selects particular
persons , us he did Abraham.
Elder S , D. McCord of the Marietta church
, jn Saumlers county , was in favor of a re
vision of some statements of tlio confession.
If we bcliovelhut all infants are saved why
not say so )
Kev. J. W. Griswold of Columbus said ho
'thought the time had conic to revise the con
fession to some extent. That moderate re
visionists could now control the movement
which they could not do later.
Klder J. M. . Taylor of Columbus thought
that the basis of the Presbyterian church is
its confession. "I do not think there is any
conflict between , the confession and the
bible. "
alley. G. M. Lodge of. the Ambler Place
ohuruh s.ild ; "I was bom u Culvinlst nnd
\viIldlonCulvunlst. Yet I am in fuvbrof u
" "moderate Calvinism. Now times demand now
measures and now men. "
Iluv. L. K. Uclvilloof Wahoo said : "Under
the present heat of discussion we uro not pro-
.pared for revision. Are you willing that
' J'arkhurst , Hriggs and others revise ill I op-
JK o revision bccuusu this book floes not be
long to us as a church. It belongs to the large
! family of Presbyterian churches in this coun
try and Europe. " IIo contended that the con
fession conforms to the teachings of scripture ,
( quoting various passages to sustain his
( position. He showed that the elect-infant
Vluuso is in keeping with scripture. "Can any
uiun take the bible and declare that all in
fants born into the world are elect ; "
William Kiimlull , elder in the Westminster
church , Omaha , asked : "If wo amend the
confession , can we nuiko it any better ! It has
been said during tills discussion that the
olcet-iiifunt clause should bo amended , but if
\vo amend it what are wo going to do with the
question when tlio mothers of dead infants
n'omo to us I Is the bible clear and decisive in
its statements upon the subject t Wo have the
blblo for this statement , Precious time is be
ing wasted by tills discussion. God has given
lisa great work to doand wo ought to hodoing
it instead of discussing infant salvation. If
there uro stumblng blocks in the confession
and stumbling blocks in thu bible , why not go
to work and remove the stumbling blocks
from thu bible ! "
Hoy. N. H. G. Fifo of Fremont said ho
would vote in the negative for the reason that
the Word "revise" is larger than was Intended
at the outset. It was too wide In its scope ,
and to vote for revision would imply n serious
dissatisfaction with the confession.
Kov T. W. Leurd of Schuyler thought
Koine changes were demanded. Kevisiou is
bound to come , and wo might as well fall into
line. If any revision was proH ) > sed which
wo could not endorse wo could reject U.
Kov W. K. Henderson of the Central AVest
said "Wo must discriminate lir siieak-
Ing of revisionists. There tire its many of
them who uro as loyal to our Culviiilstie
system us these who tire opposing revision. "
lie foil however that this movement "was
tindiic the control of strong and aggressive
spirits in Now York city who are not in sym
pathy with Calvinism. These men are de
termined to shape the movement and secure
If possible doctrinal revision. Our theo
logical system Is an organism ; it is logi
cally consistent throughout. Wo cannot touch
ono part without uffectlug another part. If
we tulto out preteritlon , we' destroy the logi-
. oal consistency of our system of "doctrine.
I People generally understand that If God pre
destinates a pcrxm to holiness and eternal
life , ho must also e.xerelso an act of sovereignty
eignty toward the man who dies imi > cnitcnt.
Arminlaus will justly charge us with Incoa-
hlstency if , whllo holding to personal election ,
wo drop the doctrine of preteritlon. "
Kov. H. U Wheeler of South Omaha de-
chiml that revision has come. He favored u
moderate revision.
Prof. W. 1) . McFarlana of Uellcviie col
lege , said it was suspicious for revisionists at
1ho outset to declare that they uro Culvlnlsts
nnd then criticise the confession. This re
vision sprang up among men who uro Armtn-
iun In feeling and .sentiment.
Dr. W. J Harsha of Omahasuld ho was op
posed to revision for several reasons , ono of
which was that the tendency of the times
U to soften down things in the blblo which
nro unpleasant , The tendency Is to drift
nwuv from the bible. He felt that thu con
fession expix'.ssed scripture truth.
Dr. J. DenNooo thu First church o'fOnmhn
Eidd : "This is a vry serious miention. The
iirortbyteiy of Nassaii only nsucd for a revis
ion In a very few particulars , The assembly
of 1SS $ Ignored Us overture. Then what was
doncl I Jeforo the spring meeting of the pms-
bytertes In ISS'J letters wcro sent till over the
country trying to get up a sentiment In favor
of revision. They then succeeded in getting
It before the assembly in ISS'J. It is a regular
scheme. Hevislon puts us In bad comiiany.
If the confession is torn to pieces , us 1 am
afraid It will l > o , where will wo stand I Why ,
iimond the Unitarians , nnd worse than all ,
uniong iutldels. Ono man says revision is
bound to come , ' nnd another , and another ,
uud oo the result is that an opldemle Is
Kturtcd. " Ho very forcibly Illustrated this
thought by instancing the ' 'elixir ot life"
cruto which so recently prevailed. "Iho
truth of God's word Is in that confession ,
The love of Jeans Christ is embodied In the
confession from end to eml. "
Hey. W. J. I'idul of Omaha said ho had
more faith In the Presbyterian church than
to believe that it would discard. Culyunlsui.
Is there any blemish in that confession I If
so. It should l > o removed. Thcro nro many
things in the confession ivhlclr should bo re
vised out. Such things as do harm should be
removed.
.T. If. Fleming"older m the Walnut Hill
church , Omaha , favored a moderate revision ,
but was opposed to any doctrinal revision.
On motion the discussion was arrested and
n vote taken. The question voted UIMJH was
the lirst question of the assembly's overture ,
vi13d you desire a revision of tlio confes
sion of faith ! "
The roll wiw called nnd resulted in 13 voles
in the afllniutlVG nnd 25 In the negative. On
motlcn this result wus'nwdo'nnanlinous.
The commissioners to the assembly wore In
structed (6 vote and' net accordance with
the decision of the presbytery , against re
vision. Kov. J. Ml WllsOn of Omaha was
elected commissioner to llio assembly , which
meets In Saratoga MI the 15th nf May , and .1.

I'owdorly on Foreign Immigration.
Niw : Yoaic , April 10. Among the wit
nesses heard by tuo congressional subcommittee
mittee on immigration today was Muster
Workman Powderly. Powderly was of the
opinion that foreign labor was on the increase
in this country. These foreigners work in
mines and on railroads nt starvation wages
and live like animals in wooden sheds. Tlio
general tendency of such immigration was to
degrade labor and morals. Scarcely any of
them speak English. Unsuccessful attempts
hud been made to organize them. "It Is a
frequent occurrence , " said Powderly. "for
one woman to live with forty men. Wo are
sending missionaries to Africa and yet import
heathen by the thousands. "

Special to Tin : BEE. ] Archbishop Corrigan -
gan has returned to Home with the dust of
Jerusalem and Na/.uroth on his shoes-ami the
stains of stormy Galileo on his black cassock.
The archbishop has had n grand trip through
the holy land. He celebrated mass on almost
every sacred spot of note in Palestine. Tlio
four clergymen who accompanied him on his
solemn pilgrimage through the scenes of
Christ's life , death ami resurrection will only
remain in Koine four or live days in order to
be presented to the pope. They will then re
turn to America.
Archbishop Corrigan has grown stouter
and stronger. He will remain hero for about
a month arranging the affairs of Ids
archdiocese with the propaganda.
The quarrel with Dr. Burtsoll ,
tlio friend mid counsel for Dr. McGlynii , tlio
excommunicated pastor of St. Stephen's par
ish , if it cmi bo called n quarrel , will be set
tled now. As to Dr. McOlynn himself , there
seems to no hope. The archbishop says that
ho does not think Dr. McGlynn will ever
make bis formal submission to the church for
the reason that bis mental faculties have
become exalted and ho asserts t hat this men
tal condition has robbed the once distin
guished orator of his reason. Tlionrehbishop
insists that the present instructions of the
holy see fully conllrm the teachings of the
church on the fundamental rights of propur-
ty and simply modify the application of them
b'y urging a greater spirit of charity toward
the laboring classes.
There is no truth in the statement that the
archbishop's mission to Homo relates to the
division of his archdiocese into two parts ,
with separate governments. Tlio archbishop
will consult with the propaganda and with
the Italian bishops of the. diocese from which
the iM-'ople are Immigrating to America as to
the best means of curing spiritually for the
helpless and ignorant.
The archbishop , after leaving Koine and
Naples in the early part of February , sidled
to Alexandria , where he spent onedny cele
brating mass in the Franciscan church. Then
ho went to Cairo , visited the pyramids and
stared at the Sphinx. At Jaffa hi- went to see
the supposcdsitcof thohomoof Sitnontho tan
ner , where St. Potcrhad the vision. From this
curious old point tlio pilgrims wandered on
to Kamleh , and after spending a night in the
Franciscan convent , hurried on to Jerusalem.
It was In Jerusalem that the archbishop
and his fellow travelers entered upon the real
work of their pious Journey. From February
17 till March'J they trod the soil of Jerusa
lem , saying mass in turn at the sopulchro of
Christ.'on the Mount of Olives , on Calvary
and nt Hothlehem. The whole party was en
tertained by the patriarch of Joiiihalcin in
the Franciscan hospital lit Cus-
anuovo. Going overland to Narareth
Archbishop Corrigan was carried in
a picturesque palanquin on the backs of nn-
ronmntie , trustworthy mules. Some others
vodo on horseback. This rough Journuy lasted
for four days. Hueh night the archbishop
ami his friends camped out In tents. ' 1 hey
were accompanied by Friar Llevin , n famous
monk who has traveled and studied the holy
land for thirty veal's. The archbishop en
dured the hardships of the wild rule and rude
camps like a veteran frontiersman. Every
pilgrim biild mass at Nazareth. Then they
went on to Tiberius , Capernaum , Uothsaidu
mid Mugdala.
When the archbishop and his friends went
out for a ball on the Sea of Galileo thu watx-r
was as smooth as glass. Within a few min
utes tlio hccnu was changed Into an angry
tumult of waves. Dr. Talmage had u fdmilur
exiK-ricnce only a bhort time ago. So great
was the btorm'that four of thu pilgrims hud
t < bo put ashore : but tlio arch
bishop stuck to thu boat. On the way
back to Nazareth the company saw
thohcene of the marrlago feast miraclu lit
'From ' Nazareth they proceeded toCalfnund
then visited Mount Carmel , remaining in I ho
monastery there for two days. The return to
Komelod through Hoyreuth , Comttantinoplo
and Athens. U'nilo travel we-ary the men
visited Mars Hill , but were not templed to
orate. Sonm vandal has Just broken off u
piece of the hugo bnuwu wre-alh that adorns
the now celebrated stutuo of Giordans Bruno ,
the erection of which almost induced lhopcixi |
to abandon Koine. No trace of the thieves

for pieces of the bronze of which the monument

some of the metal for the friends of Colonel
