As the Secretary of State declines to say what course was decided upon as regards the resolution. It Is surmised that the decision has been actually reached. It is known that some members of the Cabinet are troubled with serious doubts as to the advisability of meeting the request of Congress, and It has been urped that In making the representations desired in the Interest of these Armenian subjects of Turkey, the State Department would deprive its argument in favor of the ilonroe doctrine, as set out Ifv the note of last July concerning Venezuela,, of all points, since It was based on the admission of the right of European powers to regulate the affairs of Europe free from our Interference as a condition for the free exercise by the United States of a similar right to control the affairs of thl3 hemisphere, without European interference. - January Financial Exhibit.

The first was Jacob Ratcliff, who went to the pool Sunday morning. arriving there soon after the dead girl's body had been removed from the water. He saw the trail leading from the pool over the bluff, and saw what was supposed to be blood on the log at the foot of the bluff. The cross-examination left the question of the freshness of footprints in doubt. Henry Myers, a prosecuting witness, told how he had examined the house as a member of a committee appointed at Clara Shanks s funeral and came to the con clusion that the 'stains claimed to have been made by blood were from paint.

THE WOMAN'S BIBLE
WHAT IT IS AND WHY ITS COM PILERS HAVE DONE THE WORK. Claim the Bible Ham. Ileen "Woman Greatest Enemy nnd thnt It Teachings Must Be Overcome. Susan H. Wixon. in New York World. In olden times of paganism women enJoyed rights and privileges of value and distinction, which, under another regime were taken from them. History declares that the ancient Teutonic tribes treated women with respect, great respect. Women sat in the halls of state, were consulted in affairs of government and their opinions were sought In matters of war. In settling disputes and In all important questions relating to the management of human business. These ancient pagans were monogamists, marrying but one wife and acknowledging the equality of women in religious, political and secular matters generally. . And so It was !n pagan Rome. The women were educated, respected and honored in the family and in the government. Hortensia, daughter of Hortenslus, was a student at Jaw with, her father, and. when she was admitted to practice at the bar won many plaudits for her masterly exposition of the Roman laws. So happy were the conditions of the family under pagan rule that a divorce was not. known in Rome for five hundred years, and thus the river of life flowed peacefully and happily. Among other ancient nations women were with the rulers guiding and conducting affairs. They acquired! property and when married kept their own names, their children bearing the same. The advent of Christianity has been generally supposed to have brought more light into the world, especially to have lifted woman Into a wider -sphere, to have given her prominence and crowned her with a nobler grace. Tho majority of people believe this today. Women themselves who have been brought up in the Church do not doubt it. They have not asked. Is it true? but have accepted as a fact that which a little examination would have revealed as pure Action. The accepted authorities, the makers of Christian theology, brought no message of hope to the women of that other period, or to the women of any period. There wa3 no uplift for woman in anything they had to say not one word of hope, encouragement or good cheer, not one. THE FIRST SLANDER. The Book of Genesis portrays bow sin got into the world, how misery fastened Its fangs upon us. How then was it? Does it not tell woman that she did it? that she is responsible for all the distress, sorrow and agony of life? that she brought sin into a world of happiness and bloom? It is a dreadful charge, cruel and humiliating beyond expression. There is the record, the foundation, upon which Is built the yoke of Inferiority which was fastened upon the neck of woman. Read it, and tell me if there ever was or could be anything in the universe more to tho hurt and Injury of woman, moredamnlng to her progress, more detrimental to her best interests, than the accusation brought against her In the book that is the superstructure of the prevailing fashionable folly of Christian countries to-day." What is the reason women are not considered the peers politically of their brothers in this free, land of ours? Why are they In the same categoryf politically speaking, with paupers, criminals. Idiots and the insane? Why are they not found in the council chambers framing the laws by which they are governed, and to which they are amenable? Is it that they are indeed inferior, immature, lacking In good sense, reason or Judgment? .Nay, nay, friends, such is not the case. The real reason that woman, occupies a position Inferior to that of man' is due wholly, solely and altogether to the ban put upon her by the great religious authority, the "Holy Scriptures," on account of the alleged Original Sin of the alleged Original Woman. It Is that, and that only. According to the accepted authority In Genesis relative to the advent of woman, she was simply an addendum, an afterthought, a supplement, a spare-rib. We know, of course, that woman existed on the earth long prior to the last six thousand years, but we win simply trace the account of her miraculous coming ac cording to Scripture. Made from a bone cut from the skeleton of a man and en dowed with life, she appears on the scene of action. Th first- thing she did was to bring knowledge to the surface. Bless her for that. Knowledge went by the name of sin In that olden day, and there are those living who give it the same name now. Knowledge was "below par and very un fashionable. FIRST TO LEARN SOMETHING. , Paul said with emphasis that the woman was "first in the transgression," that Is, she had learned something. The canon law emphasized with almost paralyzing f tree the Biblical statements concerning worn an's part and lot as chief actor in the story of the fall of man. Never were there more .scathing words against woman than the sentence uttered and written by Christian saints and rulers, and which have con spired to keep her in the-valley of humilla tlon and despair. Among the old Latin fathers of the church was Tertulllan, a lawyer, who became a Christian priest In the year 190. He wrote several books, and one, telling women how they ought to dress, and that they should nido tneir reatures Denind a veil whenever they entered the house of God. Let mo quote some of his compliments to the sis terhood. "Woman," he says, "thou shouldst ever be clothed in rags, and in mournlntr. appearing only as a penitent, drowned In tears, expiating thus the sin of having caused the fall of the human race." He goes on to say: "Women, thou art the gate of the devil. It Is thou who hast corrupted those whom Satan dare not attack face to face." It was, probably, Tertulllan's books ar.d letters that helped Milton when he drew the portrait of woman, making: her a woman to the waist and the rest of her body a caly serpent, representing ner as the embodiment of sin and doorkeeper of the bottomless pit. A serpent armed with mortal sting. Among the many atrocious cruelties per petrated by the early friends of Chrinianlty is tne murder or the beautiful and accom pHshed Hypatla, in the year 415. Why, at the great Christian Council at Macon, in SSI, the good old saints solemnly debated whether woman was a beast or a human being. St. Jerome said she was a wild beast of a dangerous species. The con elusion, however, was that, being the moth er of men. she must be human, because men did not like to think themselves the off spring of beasts. They let her take com munlon, but not in her naked hands: oh. no! She was considered too vile, although her hands had made tne bread. Read Lecky's "History of European Mor als." He says: "She was represented as the mother of all ills. She was taught that she should be ashamed of the very thought that she was born a woman that she should live In continual penance on account of the curses which she had brought into The ecclesiastical lawmakers seemed to take a fiendish delight in trampling woman In the dust. Augustine declared that a hus band had a perfect right to slap his wife In the face. John Wesley did not doubt it. The old English statutes say It still, but the stick must not be bigger than a man's thumb. What sort of a cudgel It was afore time no one knows probably a cordwood stick or a birchen log. Does It seem in credible? Go into the city courts to-morrow morning and behold the remnants of that same savagery in the bruised and bleeding forms and faces of helpless wives in the hands of brutal lords and masters. DUTY TO SPEAK THE TRUTH. I hate to tell these things, but. In show ing tho obstinate causes that have ob structed the advancement of women it Is my duty to speak the truth, the whole truth, and nothing. but the truth. The stigma of original sin was fastened upon woman with the branding Irons of holy writ. She inhaled obedience with eveT breath. She absorbed submits! on and subjection at every turn, for these con fronted her everywhere. The church had proclaimed her guilt. Could the church lie? Could it deceive and falsify? .Alas and alas, she had no power to learn, for learning was to her a forblJJen thing. She was not allowed to read. She couu not write She was told her duty was simply to ac cept what her masters deemed proper, Thus was she relegated to her condition
of servitude a kitchen maid, a ministering angel in times of need, a ministering servant at any time ani all times. The bear
er of burdens and the bearer of children, she suffered the august martyrdom of motherhood, but she could not, under the law, own her children, unless their father repudiated them. And it was considered that she had failed In her duty as a wom an unless she had become the mother of from ten to fifteen children. Woman in the nast lived in the emotions. Man possessed the world and all therein. Woman had love and rellcrlo'i. Her emo tional nature was cultivated to the utmost, and to the neglect of her other faculties. an love was. Indeed, "of his life, a tning apart. 'Twas woman s whole exist ence." It made her morbid, often capri cious. Man had the schools, colleges, li braries. Woman had the Bible: later she tiad the old farmer's almanac and the sloshy novel, and she had the chimney corner. This was the boundary of her king dom. There she lived, loved, suffered, died, and made no sign. ine new woman has chanced all that. The scales have dropped from her eyes. The. people persecuted Galileo and tried to Kin him when he told them that the world moved. They didn't believe it. and many are not aware of the fact even to-day. They fancy the world is standing still, and they stand still, too, stock still. But tne new woman knows that the wona moves, and she is movine alone with 1L The printing press, like sunshine, has Deamea upon ner, and on her brow sparkle the words intelligence. Intellectual activity. colleges and scientific schools nave yielded their tre1udices and she has grasped the knowledge so long withheld. I neology gave to the woman of other days a gown, lonsr. untldv and drajrsllng around her ankles. It said: "Put that on us a memorial of the fall." She meekly obeyed and went around mopping the streets. When she rebelled they said: 'Tisn t modest to wear short dresses: you'll be talked about." WORK OF THE NEW WOMAN. The new woman looks her contempt and declares that she Is for comfort and convenience. Attired In shorter skirts, in a rational dress, she goes about her business unfettered by garments ' that signify and keep in mind a foolish and ridiculous old myth. The old husband told the old wife that she must mind him that Paul commanded wives to be obedient; that no wife had power over her own self, but the husband owned her absolutely. And the old wife believed it. The new woman brings to society a breeze of purity and cleanliness. She looks with scorn upon the worse than barbarous sociology with Its one-sided oode of moral itywith its one estimate for the morals of man . and another totally different for woman. The new woman sees with horror the disgraceful spectacle of - women hand in hand with the libertine and betrayer, and shrinking in disgust from his victims. Yet this practice is but an off-shoot or Biblical teaching, which makes woman a criminal and dependent, a subordinate, an obedient slave and minister to man's caprice and pleasure. The world has dealt wrth results; is still dealing with results. The new order of things will treat causes. The Hercules of education and enlightenment will seek, find and destroy the source of crime, cruelty and Injustice. Then,, and not till then, may we expect to see a moral uplift of which reformers hitherto have only dreamed. The last great enemy "to be destroyed Is theology. The women of old were taught to accept without investigation.' The new woman applies the test of science to all things: to theology the same -as anything else. - She does not make up her mind without investigation. She works out problems In the crucible of honest reason. She has studied theology as she studies geology and astronomy, with the sam rreelom ana with as little intention of fastening upon her mind anything but truth, and with the resolve to follow truth where'er It leads the way. She ras placed theology In the scales along with, common sense, and theology has kicked t)ie beam. In place of the churcb there will be halls of science, academies, hospitals, homes for the homeless, reading rooms and libraries, schools, lecture rooms, open every day, in stead of one day in seven, and to which she and everybody will be welcome. The New Woman is the daughter or Tee Thought. She belongs to Free Thought and nowhere else. Every step out or the poisonous past, every period of her Krowth is due to the Influence of libera! teaching. For years Free Thought has been dealing sledge-hammer blows at the decaying fabric of ancient mythology and religious romance. Under, the rTames of progress, scientific development, enlightenment, it has pent javelins of truth through tho "withered heart of superstition. It has repeatedly called to woman to come forth from the caves of Ignorance. The New Woman Is sent, not by the church, but by the nobler 'civilization, the angels of love, liberty and justice, and she is adorned with knowledge, wisdom and reason, bright and shinlntr as the Jewels in the belt of Orion. Her mission Is to alle viate, instruct, uplift and bless. ONLY A FEW FEET. The Strauded Steamer St. Paul Moved Very Little Yesterday. NEW YORK, Jan. 3L At high tide to day, with the wind north-northeast and blowing eight miles an hour, there was an effort made to pull the American line steamer St. Paul out of the sand off Long Branch. The big windlass on board the steamer pulled on the cables attached to the kedges and several tugs lent what power they could to the attempt, but with it all the big craft was moved only a few feet toward deep water.

Mr. McFarlane proposes to organize a colony, proceed to Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, apply for concessions from the government, and lead the party to the gold fields In the disputed territory, which, he say, are the richest in the world. In the opinion of Mr. McFarlane there Is no danger of an encounter with the. British. He is of the opinion that the boundary line will be located without bloodshed. A Mlnm" on Vs.
