PHILADELPHIA. May 23. With elo
queuoo bora of tho solemn importance of
the question, commissioners to tho Pres
byterian general assembly todny began the
Uebato od tho revision of tho confession
of faith, Tho entire discussion was de
void of ncrlmony. With a full realization
ot tlui erent Importanco of tho subject, the
Assembly proceeded to consider and In
vestlgato thoroughly ovcry detail of the
proposed changes In the orcod.
Calvary church woo not large enough to
ni'cnmmodate tho throngs who clamored
for admission. Many ot tho spectators did
not leavo tbo church during tho noon ro
oess. Although frequently requested to
avoid' demonstrations, tho audience re
peatedly applauded tho speakers. Among
tho nudtenco were many clergymen of
otbr denominations.
Tho controversy regarding tho revision
haB led to tho forming of thrco groups
among tho 010 commissioners to the gen
eral assembly. At first thero Is tho con
servative group, composed of thoso who
i oppoas any chango whatever In tho doctrinal
ntundards of tho church. Then thoro Is a
party desirous ot eottlng asldo the confes
Hlon of faith no not truthfully expressing
tho belief of tho church. Ilctweon these
standards aro tho centrists, who favor
maintaining tho old confession with n few
modifications and who destro tbo adoption
of a clear "clnratlve" statement, setting
forth tho most Important declaration nnd
laying stress upon tho lovo of Clod for man
kind and tho work of tho Holy Spirit.
Tho commissioners have had nniplo tlmo
to study the commltteo's report, and when
Moderator Mlnton callod tho assembly to
order today nil woro fully prepared for a
thorough and Intelligent consideration of
tbo subject.
Wlur rrcmtiytFrlfM Mitnrt.
In answer to tho questions submitted to
thii presbyteries, fifty asked tho ajsembly
to dlsmlsu tho whole subject, ouo was un
decided, four said they neither desired a
rovlslou nor n supplemental stntement, one
revision mid an explanatory stntement,
Ofty-two a supplementary statement, flftoen
revision nud r. supplemental statement, one
nil explanatory stntement nnd n supple
mental statement, four a substltuto creed,
ono nn altcrnnttvo creed nnd si.? some
.changn, not specified.
Tho grcRt question camo beforo the as
sembly with tho reading of tho report of
tho committee on revision by Itov. Dr,
Charles A. Dickey, chairman. This was
roltpwed by . tbo minority roport, read by
Uuv. Dr. William McKIbbon of Cincinnati.
In preseutlu tho report Dr. McKlbbon said
ho would like to cny a word regarding tho
eplrlf which prcvnllod at tho meotlngs of
mo cotnumtco. Ho dcclarod that sensa
tional reports had np'pearod In tho news
papers which wcro without one lota of
truth. Dr. MoKlbhen snld tho meotlngs of
tbo cammltteo wero 'conducted under the
most harmonious conditions.
A rule ot tho assembly gives chairmen
tbo right to speak on their reports after
they have bten received, but beforo Mr.
Dickey could Becuro recognition Itov. Dr,
Samuel J. .NIccolls moved tho adoption of
the llrst recommendation lit both reports.
Dr. NIccolls "sold he made the motion In
tho lttftVo'f6f falrries'lV Tho' malU Issue,
he.sald, .was the appointment of n commit
tee whose Instructions wcro to come later
and ho bslleved that by adopting the first
recommendation thr assembly would have
the whole- report In better Bhapo for con
sideration. Hev. Dr. John DeWltt of l'rlnceton sprang
to his feet, and, addressing Dr. NIccolls,
saldi "How do you know wo want to ap
point u cpmmlttet)? Suppose wo want to
dismiss tho matter?"
Dr, Moffat moved a substltuto motion to
adopt the whole of tho majority roport.
Several amendments were offered, but
thero was so much oonfutlon that Dr.
NIccolls withdrew his motion. Dr. Moffat
then moved to adopt the majority report.
An amendment was offered to substitute
the minority report.
To DlmuUs Whole SInttcr.
Before the Inst motion was put Dr. George
u. uaicer o: I'hiiadelphla offered tho fol
lowing; "Whereas, The voto ot the presbyteries on
crecdal revision Indicates an utter lack ot
unanimity as to what should bo done In
tbo matter, and
"Whereas, This lack ot unanimity moans
a protracted period of controversy and un
rest In case 'the movement for revision be
persisted In, and
"Whereas, Tho disturbance of the confes
sion of faith would be In tho way of union
or reunion with other churches now hold
ing this symbol unimpaired, which union li
earnestly desired and prayed for, therefore
"Kcsolved, That this general assembly
deems It Inexpedient to proceed further In
tho matter of revision at this time, and It
nereoy dismisses me wholo matter."
Dr. Dickey secured the floor on this
amendmeut and made nn address support
Ing tbo old confession.
"Three-fourths of the wholo number of
presbyteries answering the questions," said
Dr. Dickey, "replied, 'wo want some
change.' Why can we not havo tho an
swers of all?" Ho declared the dismissal
f tho, whole question would uot answer
hen so many presbyteries demanded some
Ibnngc. Dr. Dickey .thought tho assembly

should be willing to do that which Is safe
and consistent, which does not reproach
bo past nnd which casts no dishonor on
the church.
"Ood's love of tho whole world, the In
fluence of the holy spirit nnd the value of
missions should form the foundation ot tho
confession."
"They tell us." he continued, "that the
crunilttee's report Is Indefinite. I think
It exceedingly clear. The report says the
change must be such as not to Impair
tho confession of faith. That Is plain. It
Is claimed that a change might Interfere
with somebody's liberty. We want the
liberty of feeling and knowledge that the
confession of faith means that God saves
his children and that Ood's love embraces
tho wholo world."
Tor Oil Minority.
Dr. Dickey was followed by Dr. McKlbbcn
on behalf ot tho minority report.
Dr. McKlbbcn said It was certain that a
majority of tho Presbyterians favored n
creedal change, but In bis opinion the
church Is determined that no chango shall
bo made which shall touch a stngto funda
mental doctrine. No new creed Is desired,
he said, as only fourteen presbyteries had
voted for that proposition. Dr. McKlbbcn
said the confession should bo made clear
on the subject of olect Infants. It should
bo demonstrated to this generation, ha
laid, that God's prace lays hold In tho act
of death and glorifies the Infant Into trans
formation when It takes tho child from Its
mothor'a heart.
Dr. McKlbbcn asked that the resolution
bo voted down, nnd made a passionate ap
peal against tho adoption of recommenda
tion D of tho majority report. This rec
ommendation calls for brief summary uf
tho reformed faith, bearing tho snme rela
tion to tho confession wnteh tho shorter
rutcchlsm bears to tho lurger catechism,
and formed on tho general model of the
consensus creed prepared for the assembly
ot 1892, or tho articles of faith ot the
Presbyterian church of England. He
strongly urged recommendation C, which
aBkn for tho preparation of amendments
to severnl chapters of the confession of
faith, either by modification of tho text
or by declaratory statement, so ns to moro
clearly express tho mind of tho church,
with additional statement concerning the
love of God for all men.
Afternoon Session,
Two hours recess followed Dr. McKlb
ben's talk. At the afternoon session Rev.
Dr. Gcorga D. llakur of this city was tho
first speaker. He declared himself as op
posed to revision. Ho said tho assertion
had been mado that the confession ot faith
was not up to date, and that the love of
God la not sufficiently magnified. Those
persons, ho said,, evidently do not know
the confession. Sorao commissioners, the
speaker declared, lean towards the adoption
of an explanatory statement as an easy way
out of tho difficulty.
"An explanatory statement," said Dr.
Uaker, "Is nn Interpretation ot tho con
fession of faith by the majority. It must
bo subscribed to by ministers making their
ordination vows nnd thoy will thus bo de
prived of their religious liberty. Is our
church losing Its hold on tho world? Is
Is a weakling church? It Is not rather
stronger than ever beforo? Lot us beware
how wo sell our birthright for a mess of
pottago."
Rev. Dr. Hcrrlck Johnson of Chicago
presented n careful analysis ot tho con
fession, showing why certain statements
should be eliminated and asserting that
somo truths not contained therein should
be added. No ono would deny, ho said,
that tho confession of faith was a human
document, and therefore subject to error.
Its Authors Xot Infnllllilr.
"I havo no attack to make on, the creed,"
said Dr. Johnson In opening his address.
"I wish calmly nnd dispassionately to In
vestigate what It- contains and what It does
not contain. Tho authors of tho creed aro
not Infallible Tbcy wroto somo things In
It which wo do not bcllcvo to be truo and
failed to wrlto some things which wo hold
to be true.
"They wrote of tho pope. 'That nntl
Christ man of sin nnd son of perdition.'
Wo rep( ito that belief, and why should
It bo allowed to remain? Wo have had
the creed 280 years nnd will be following
tho footsteps of the Westminster divines If
we mako a now one. Tho way Is open to
us to do as our Westminster fathers did.
What liberty had they that we do not
possess?"
Dr. Johnson then quoted a number of re
visions which the creed has undergone
since Its adoption and said that, as the
prevailing eenttmeut, of tho church favored
some change It was tho duty of tho as
sembly to take cognizance of the wish. As
to tho law In tho matter Dr. Johnson said
that when n specific chango Is desired by
two-thirds of tho presbyteries the assembly
must send down an overture. It has no
choice. The assembly also has the power
to oct when not requested to do so. Can
we thon afford to dismiss this question
when 151 presbyteries ask for a chango?'
asked Dr. Johnson.
flenernl Harrison's Siiuuestlon.
It was tho suggestion of General Harri
son that no matter what was taken out of
tho confession tho clniiso referring to the
popo must bo eliminated, as there was no
reason why It Bhould remain.
Tho clnuso referring to tho refusal to
take an oath Dr. Johnson also thought
should be stricken out and that somo men
tlon ot missions should bo made. Regard
Ing predestination Dr, Johnson said:
"I do not arraign tho doctrlno of divine
election, but to shout mercy up to the
elect is to tuko away its glory. We want
nothing hut fidelity to the truth. Truth
Is two-sided. Our confession holds up 0110
sido elegantly. Let us get all tho truth
on our aide.''
Rev. George T. Purves of New York spoke
against revision. Ho said In part: "I am
not an extremist on this question. I am
not ono who believe the confession of
faith In a perfect document. I recognlzo
the fact that It Is open to Improvement
This assembly Is a deliberative and con
stitutive body, not bound by the presby
tery returnn. The returns in this enso
present a hopeless future for any specific:
plan. As for tho poor pope of Rome being
anti-Christ, I admit that It la not the
proper epithet lo apply to him, but bring
ing up such subjects Is picking flies off
tho grcnt pillar of the confession."
Dr. Met-olls' Views.
An address favoring revision which no
ticeably Impressed the commissioners wns
delivered by Rev. Dr. Samuel J. NIccolls
of St. Louis, who declared that creed Is
the report of scriptural knowledge- up to
date. "Our fathers, who wrote It, recog
nized this fact." asserted Dr. Nlccolll.
"I do not believe In heating ecclesiastical
drums, It Is my opinion that when n docu
ment don't express your convictions tho
easiest way Is 10 change It.
"Hy tho third chapter of tho confession
wo do uot mean that God's grace is not to
be preuched to nil men, Salvation l open
to all men In the provlnco of Christ.
"Ono. third of tho human race die In In
fancy and the sorrowing mother conies to
tho church. Has the church, ns tho rep
resentative of tho gentle Jetisu, nothing to
say to that sorrowing mother? That is
what wo ask In this connection," ,

Upon bis return to Washington tho presl
dent will have his hands full for somo time
In dispensing patronage. Tho terms of
several hundred men who wero appointed
to federal ofllcos four years ago expire dur
Ing tho next few mouthB. Ah a rule thero
will bo nothing dono beforo tho middle of
July and it is probable that the majority
of places will remain unfilled until con
gross meets, In order that tho senate may
havo a chance to confirm nominations bo
fore now commissions aro issued.
In the meantime, however, tho appoint
ment clerks of tho various departments
will bo kept busy preparing the papers for
the president. In the Treasury department
alone many thousand papers have been re
ceived and filed nway for reference. In
tho Postotllce department, which Is the
greatest bureau of the government for
patronage, there are on file close to 500,000
documents relating to the 75,000 odd post
masters and postolflces throughout tho
country. In fact, with tho exception of
those in the Wnr and Navy departments
every ono ot tho appointment clerks are
tho busiest men connected with the govern
ment. About nil tho military appointments
have been made and thero is nothing in
tho navy for a civilian.
Then, too, the secretary of war has been
relieved of n great deal of pressuro for
places through tho transfer of tho civil
appointments to tho Civil Service commls
slon. Thero nro several good positions in
the Philippines which aro apparently going
begging, but ns soon ns tho public learns
of them thero will be no dearth of appll
cants.
Criticism nf Hvetl Dint rlliutlon.
Tho Agricultural department Is coming
lu for u great deal of censure this year
on nccount of the manuer In which the
yearly distribution ot seeds has been con
ducted. Heretofore It has been the custom
to secure many different varieties of each
kind of garden seed, and tho recipient was
asked to report to tho department the ve
suit of his test. This year every package
of five packets contains "watermelons" and
very little else. There are no murks to
designate tho kind ot beans, peas or what
ever may bo sent, and the whole aim seems
to havo been to secure tho greatest possl
ble amount for tho money available with
out any reference whatever to the charac
ter nf tho seed. The result Is that com
plaints arc loud and general.
Careless Anierii'iui Importers,
American consuls lu Kurope, as well as In
South America and Asia, continue to call
attention to tho carelessness ot tho Amer
lean exporters in packing their goodH for
shipment. It has been pointed out again
and again that this carelessness Is greatly
detrimental to American trade. Valuablo
machinery Is frequently packed In lllmsy
wrappings, which will not benr tho rough
handling of roustabouts and stevedores, yet
all Ruch warnings seem to havo no effect
upon the manufacturer, who spends thou
sands of dollars In working up foreign
trade, only to lose It through his own
carelessness,
A case In point was noticed n few months
ago. The North German Lloyd steamer
Hohenzollcrn was loading at the wharf In
Urooklyn for Mediterranean ports. Among
the last of the cargo to bo taken on board
wns a consignment ot llfty harvesters of n
well-known make. Tho geared wheels of
theso complicated machines were protected
only by a few pieces of thin board nailed
crosswise. The tongues wero not packed
nt nil and they wore thrown In loose, and
they lost about 2o per cent of the paint
before they dropped Into tho hold. Great
boxes of complicated parts had no hoop
Iron protection, ns they should have, and
three of them were torn all to pieces by
the strain of tho cable used In lowering
them to the hold. Spectators on tho deck
were willing to wnger that tho damn go to
those harvesters would approximate 25
per cent of their value by the tlmo they
reached their destination. There wero no
takors, bceauso It seemed like u cinch.
