ADA ItKlIAN IN 8II.VKH.
CHICAGO, May 31.—The grand silver Btatue of Justice for which the queenly Ada Rehan posed was unveiled at 8 o'clock Tuesday afternoon in the Montana seotion of the Mines and Mining building. Hundreds of people saw tho unveiling and cheered till their applause rang through the rafters as tho folds that draped the figure fell to tho pedestal and for the first time revealed the beautiful work of art to public view. Mrs. Rickards, wife of the governor of tho state that contributed the handsome statuo to the fair, loosened the cords that held up the vailing. Addresses wore delivered by Maj. Martin Maginnis, of Helena, Mont., and J. M. Quin, editor of the Butto Miner.
Beautiful and Vuluable.
The statue is the largest silver figure in the world. It is about 12 feet liigh and is the life-sized figure of woman poised on a laryre globe, which rests on the outstretched wings of a gigantic eagle. The silver, which amounts to 1,031 pounds, was furnished by two Montana citizens—W. A. Clark, of Butte, and cx-Gov. S. T. Hauser. R. H. Park was the scuiptor. The statue, as it stands in the Montana space, gives a beautiful, queenly effect. It is placed just In the center of the section, tho entrance to which is guarded by two ferocious-ap-pearing bronze lions. The lower part of tho pedestal is of ebony and upon this, to support the statue, is a block of pure gold 2 feet and 5 inches square and 10 inches high, fiw more valuable, from a money point of view, than the silver figure itself. The gold pedestal represents an expenditure of nearly $250,000, and the silver in the statue only about $75,000.
Great Crowd at the Fair.
Tuesday's attendance was the largest sineo the opening day of the world's fair. The tickets Hold at the gates were: Adult, 110,5711 children, 0,518 total, 123,097.

Around tho Mac Mounies fountain and the two band stands was a solid throng, which at times must have numbered 25,000. The special Decoration day music proved one of the greatest attractions to the crowd.
Many thousands remained to witness the grand illumination at night, and while the musicians played first the stirring measures of "Marching Through Georgia," and then tho faint, tender melody, "Just Before the Battle, Mother," with all the golden glory of the Grand basin spread out before tiiem, they drank their fill of beauty.

The Noted Presbyterian Closes His Argument.
COL. M'COOK FOR THE PROSECUTION.
It I* Thonght Certain That Dr. llriggs WUi He Found Convicted of tlio Charge of Heresy Whou the Votes Are Counted.
CONTINUED HIS A KG UM EXT. WASHINGTON, May 31.—Prof. Briggs' defense is closed. So is the prosecution. Commissioners of tho assembly will spend a couple of- hours to-day giving their individual views, but nothing will be added to the general stock of knowledge concerning the Union professor's teachings. It looks as though the voting will vary materially on tho different specifications. Tho majority of the assembly is going to convict him of heresy. Nothing is more certain. Yet Dr. Briggs' exposition of his own views and his challenge to the members of the assembly to judge by the light of their consciences has had its effect. It. is not likely that he lias converted many to his opinions, particularly in regard to sanctlfication after death. What he has succeeded in doing has been to lodge a doubt in the minds of commissioners whether the. standards of Presbyterian doctrine are so contravened by his teachings that he is outside the essentinls of the Westminster confession so completely as has been thought. It is these doubts that will caifse the vote on the various charges to vary.
IlcHumod Ills Argument.
Dr. Uriggs at 9:50 a. m. Tuesday resumed his argnment in defense of the charges made against him. Dr. Briggs occupied all the balance of the morning session, going over substantially the same ground argued before the New York presbytery. He was heard without interruption or incident of moment.
Dr. Briggs admitted that the charges that ho said errors may have existed in the original text of the Holy Scripture as it came from the authors were fairly accurate. The errors he had found had been beyond tho range of faith or practice, and therefore they did not impair the infallibility of the Holy Scripture as a rule of faith and practice. But the sacred writings were not composed iu Heaven by the holy spirits or sent down from Heaven by angel hands wiere not committed to tho care of perfect men and were not kept by a succession of perfect priests from that moment to the present God, in transmitting the word, used the hands of imperfect gfcribes who edited and reedited, arranged and rearranged the sacred writings. Fallible men could not produce infallible writings. At 12:30 the assembly toolt .its usual noonday recess until 2:30 p. m.
Errors In the Hcriptnro Texts. At tlio afternoon session Dr. Kriggs continued his defense. He said:
UI
now wish lo bring forth my position. 1 shall adhere to tho policy which 1 have thus fur follower! with regard toerrors In Holy Scripture. 1 have refused to accept tho dogma Unit the original autographs weixi inei *.*nt. I have maintained ihtu there are errors in the texts which we have, in the beat texts we can got by theseiencoof textual criticism, and that It is improbable that the original texts, if we eould discover them, would be much different from those wo have in that record. Hut I have refused to alllrni that there were errerB In the original autographs, because It Is uu.^lentllle and it Is unscholarly and It Is a0ainst the truth-loving spirit of Christianity to make affirmations of dogma where we have no certain evidence I have always rofra!~rd as far UH possible from pointing lo errors In the present text of Scripture. liut every lilblical scholar admits thorn."
I'rogresHiv® Hanctlfieatloii.
Returning to his belief In progressive sanetiiication after death, I)i\ IJri#£s said: •'The doctrine of progressive sanctllication is In accordance with the laws that God has established in the ethical constitution of mun. The church ur.d the Hlfole give their potent aid to the conscience in the ethical elevation of humanity. It is always, everywhere and In overy variety of form and education or training. Shall all this ethical training cease at death all the varied stages of pivgresa in tho different periods of life, or culture, of radical and national advancement. be reduced to common level and made of no effect by a mighty transformation that will deal svitn tHe race, father and child, mother and babe, master and scholar, seit-sacrilleing missionary and pagan convert, tho devoted ovaugellst and the thief and murderer [here Dr. Briggs shouted his words] turning In his Inst hour to Christ from the nhadow of the gallowsall in one undistlnguishablo massY Such doctrine strikes a deadly blow at the moral nature of man, the ethical constitution of society, the historic training of our race and tho moral government of God. "The doctrine of progressive sanctlfication after death harmoolzes Christian faith with Christian ethics, and both of these with the ethics of humanity and the ethics of God.' It enables us to comprehond the whole life of man, the whole history of our race from its first creation until tho day of doom and all the acts of God in creation and providence under one grand conception, the divine sanctitlcation of man.**
Ids Conclusion.
Turning to tho assembly and raising his hands solemnly Dr. Briggs concluded his defense as follows: "1 bttvo ondcavorod to explain my vlewa. I hold them sincerely and wltli all my heart. I hone tliey aro set forth In Holy .Scripture. I know many of them are set forth iu the Westminster confession. "I challenge you before God to Judjre me rightly and conscientiously. I challenge you beforo Uod to judgo mo according to the record. I challenge you before Jesus Christ to do me Justice in your Judgment."

But he regretted that at a late hour the defendant, had stood here and said: "Yes. tlie words are initio, but 1 do not admit the facts stated therein." This was quibbling. Col. McCook asserted that the case before the presbytery was one of fact and not of law: that tlio charges contained only matter which the defendant admitted having uttered, and that the verdict should have been guilty. The case was one which eould not be decided by occasional polemics" on Presbyterian doctrines, but must lo decidcd by the highest tribunal- in ac
cordance with the constitution and standards of ll*,' church. The speaker traversed anew tlio grounds of the teachings of the defending and asserted, despite the hitter's ivowuls and explanations, that they .vere in opposition to the Holy Neriplurcs and confession of faith, and therefore gross error in the eye of the ?hurcli. Ho also asserted that the doctrines at issue were essential, notwithstanding Prof, liriggs' declara:ion of opinion to the contrary.
