feme one be privcn carte Manch" tfi tell us what we are to do without further Instruction from the church. This ho regarded a3 the most prt -post rous proposition ever ropounded to a reform church. MEMBER OF FOURTH PARTY. President J. I). Meffatt, of Washington fcnd JefTer.or University, said he belonged, like rr. De Witt, to the fourth party, yet he was opposed to di?misInK the entire matter. while Dr. De Witt was In favor of such action. He did not know whether he was a revisionist or not, because there was no specific proposition b f re the a.v.;nbly. lie inlvucp.tfil the acceptance of Recomir.en!.Tti'.n R, -tjid until the committee makes its report in accordance to that itcomm nilat::i he tili'. not know iirie he stood.

After d-bate the motion w.s carried. 3n. Ron's Warner, of this city, then spoke aaiast revision Rev. Dr. Robert M. Patter-on, of Pennsylvania, declared it had bt en ald on ihe floor of the assembly tint the Confession of Faith was not believed. Thi hrouht Dr. Johnson, of Chicago, to his fret with the ciliary: "I want to know who says we do not believe the Omfe.-riion of Faith?"' . "I call Dr. Johnson to order," said a Voice ir. the A:sa;:bly. "Dr. Patterson ha:s the lloor." announced the moderator. Dr. Patterson concluded hi speech with the announcement thit he was unalterably opposed to any change, i.i i.r.e t'ontes.sion. lit. W. II. K-dert.', sta'.ed clt rk. ler lared himself In favor of a -Jecl-iruiory siaten.ent. He said: "I be'ieve all parties can b; united. We woulo be wise to follow the t'cotch churches in what they have dove. The revision committee did at one of their meetings deei.le to rer oirim nd a iee! ir ttcry act as the hen meatus of settling this question, but 1 t r ared not to include this recommendation in their report. Th lilble is our suprtrne rule ar.d standard of lalth. It Fecms very largely to have been overlooked during this discussion. The whole Ribie Is our Confession and w hen vol raise the issue on the Confession you must gft back to Scripture and compare Scripture with Scripture. I hope we shall have a declaratory act. A DECLARATORY ACT. "My Idea of the proper declaratory statement would be this: "First We declare the supremacy of the Holy Scripture as the only source of our doctrine and the infallible rule of our faith and conduct. "Second The fact that the system of ooctrine in the Confession is the system of doctrine taught in Holy Scripture, and that, therefore, as the Scripture cannot contradict Scripture, there can be no lack of harmony between the statements which declare the sovereignty of God In salvation and the statements which set forth the retponsihility and freedom of man. "Third That this church has always held, and now holds, in the matter of the salvation of infants dyinp In Infancy and Other persona mentally incapable of faith, that they are saved by the electing Brace of that (Jod who is not only a sovereign, but a father. "Fourth That thi3 church, holding as it does primarily the Holy Scriptures as Its supreme rule of faith and conduct, has taught from Its establishment the Bre.it truth of the love of God for the world, of the obligation of the church to carry the gospel to all men. arid of the absolute necessity for the presence and power of the Holy Ghost to make effective all Christian work; further, this church has always given evidence of faith by its work. "Fifth That the terms of subscription to the Confession are not ipsisslma verna. but to the system of doctrine tauRht in Holy Scripture." At the suKpestiAn of Dr. Dickey a motion was carried extending the time for debate a half hour, and bri f addresses were made by Dr. Dir.smore, Rev. Ir. J. J. MeCirrell, of Pennsylvania: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Ersklne. of Pennsylvania: F. T. Roots, of Indiana; Charles s. Holt, of Illinois; George Taylor, of New Jersey, and Judge John K. Kwinp. of Pennsylvania. DICKEY CLOSES THE DERATE. Dr. Dickey closed the debate with a convincing argument, and during the course of his address his eloquent appeal for a clearer definition of the clause relating to elect Infants elicited a spontaneous burst of enthusiasm from the comissioners. "The question of revision is not before the assembly," said Dr. Dickt y. "Is this General Assembly willing to follow the example of the last assembly and Rive a little time to tindir.B out if a change is required In the Confession of Faith? That is what we are considering. We must not dismiss a question which has occupied the attention of the church for years. It is an insult to the Intelligence of the Presbyterian Church to say we have been frightened Into doing something. Nclody is trying to lead the church Into a revolution or blind revision. Has the changing time all gone with the past? This very Confession came out of a determination and a demand for a change. The clause prohibiting a man from marrying his dead wife's sister was repudiated. Is It more Important whose sister a man should marry, or that Infants should be saved? I believe that only elect infants are saved, but I want it written In the Confession that all Infants are elect." At the conclusion of Dr. Dickey's address Dr. De Witt called for a yea and nay vote, but Moderator Minton ruled that a rising vote would suffice. Th question was then laid before the assembly and the amendment dismissing the subject was lost by an overwhelming majority.. The. assembly adjourned until to-morrow. coxFi:iu;.ti: of iumyahijs. aianr InilinnianB Will Attrntl the Meeting ut Lincoln, eb. LINCOLN, Neb., May 21.

The report as adopted recommends that no o.ct.or. be taken on the 'elect inlant" clause for the following reasons: "First Reeause it is unwise to initiate at this time the agitation of thU question among the people. "Second Reeause no modification that does not eliminate scriptural Calvinism from this section of the Confession will obviate the objection which comes from American fourccs. "Third Reeause the Westminster Confession of Faith is the lirst great creed which taught the salvation of infants dying in infancy on truly scriptural grounds. "Fourth Reeause the Confession of Fallh In this section does not teach th ? damnation of any Infant dying in infancy, for the reason that the contrast made in it is not between elect and nonelect Infants dying In infancy, but between elect persons who die in infancy and elect persons win do not die in infancy. "Fifth Reeause. while we have a wellgrounded hope founded on Scripture that all infants dying in infancy ate saved. yt the Confession of Faith goes a. far as the Scriptures justify a positive crtedal ttatement upon the subject." SRCiurr sociirni's attacked. Hitter ANNanlt on Mnsoim nnd Odd FellovM ly Preacher. DKS MOINKS, la.. May 21.-The important topic to-day before the United Presbyterian General Assembly was revision of the creed, which provides that no member of any secret society can be a member of the church. The matter was hotly discussed for more than two hours, but final decision was postponed until later In the session. The Masonic and Odd Fellows" orders were special objects of attack, one delegate going so far as to say he believed no member of a secret society could ever reach heaven. Dr. James Crowe, of Philadelphia, was particularly bitter against the Masonic order, and called the exercises of the lodges "worshiping without Christ." Rev. J. A. Wallace thought omo members of some societies misht be admitted to the church, but wished to exclude Masons. Dr. McMillan thought fratf rnalism taught by secret societies was anti-Christian. Rev. T. R. Moffatt, of New York, said no man could be both a Mason or an O ld Fellow and a Christian. Rev. R. K. Smith, the only colored delegate, thought secret societies were wrong because tiu'y compelled a man to keep secrets from his wife, which was contrary to the Rible teachings. CREED0N KNOCKED OUT. Whipped liy .Marvin Hart "MIx-Vp" That Wan Not on the Programme. LOUISVILLE. Ky.. May 24. Marvin Hart, of Louisville, to-night knocked out Dan Creedon.of Australia, in the sixth round of a twenty-five-round bout before the Southern Athletic Club. The contest was desperate and bloody from the start. Hart, the plumber pugilist, hid won ilfleen straight victories, and Creedon. owing to his greatly Improved condition of late, was conceded to be the mo:-t dangerous proposition of them all. Hart weighed in at 170 pounds and Creedon one pound less. From the opening t;ong sound the men went at It like bulldogs, poundirs right and left hooks to the spots that seneraily mean a knockout. Hoth were in such tine snipe, however, thit for three round.- Utile h:rm was done, but when the fourth w.13 over Creedon"? own efforts for a knockout and Hart's terrific swings to the Australian's jaw and battered eye left hi'n unable to do much. In the fifth the ro:i saved him. though he m in Aged to get in a few hard ones. Hart appeared fresh ar.d strong, and shortly after the beginning of the Mxth Hart landed a left hook to the chin and Dan was out. As he lay under the ropes Dave Sullivan, one of "his seconds, l)f ?an sprinkling witer over him i-e-fore ten of the count had been reached. Like a flah some one struck Su;llvan on the head, and a rou?h-and-tun;L!e light v, as started with half a dozen rubbers, Lcttleholdc-rs nral barkers in the mix-up. The police, with clubs, finally restored order, and the tight was awarded to Hart. Hoeler Deelnretl Winner. NFAV YORK. May :i.-Rrr."st Robber was given the decision over Nouroulah, the Turkish wrestler, after a seven- struggle lasting twenty-six minuus. at th? Academy of Music to-night. The conditions were that Ncuroulali should throw Rs,. I er three times within an hoar. Grat co-Roman style. When Roetn.r broke from a hammer lock after twenty-s'x rninutts of wretdag the Turk slipped his arm below Koebcr s hips and raised him by tne thighs high In the uir. Roebcr's seco-.uss jumped ir.to the ring yelling foul. Police Captain Gannon refused to allow the match to be continued, and Roeber was declared winner. Matty Matthew Whipped. TORONTO. May 2l.-M.ttty Matthews was knocked out by Ferns in the tenth round of what was to have been a twentyround contest for the welter-weight championship at the Crescent Athletic Club tonight. Up to the tenth round Matthews had all the better of the bout. The tenth round started furiously. Ferns made a rush for Matthews, win side-stepped, and Ferns went head first threocn the ropes, almost out of the ring. When they resumed Ferns whipitd a right to the Jaw and Matthews went down, but was up n a moment. A terrific left sent Matthews down and out. PARTIAL CONFESSION MADE.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TOLEDO, O.. May 24. Refore a crowd of l.OöO people Joss turned a trick of pitching this afternoon that was wonderful to behold. He allowed the hard-hitting leaders but two hits, one of these being very questionable. Rehind this magnificent work the fielders piled up four errors and lost the game. The visitors had no call to win the game as they did not a run was carr.eel and but for the errors at critical stages the game would have been 1 to 0 In favor o the locals. Several times Joss found himself In bad holes, but the boy pitched himself out of them in grand style and earned his title to the position he holds. One of the features of the game was a phenomenal one-handed running stop of a fast-moving ground ball that stopped a run. In center field the speed of Rey saved the game at dangerous stages, and many apparently safe hits were pulled down by hi ability to cover ground swiftly. Sutthofi pitched well, but his reputation was saved only by fast work of the fielders, as the score shows. Score: Toledo. Fisher, s... Miller, rf... Turner, 1... Grarfius. c. Cargo, 3....

With the race less than twenty-four hours away there seems to be a well-defined idea that the great horse Banastar has as fine chance for the rich prize as he had when he walked away with it in to the surprise of everybody but hla owner, and a few of his chosen friends. This time, however, he wil carry more weight than he did that day, for he Is two years older and has the race charged against him in the books of the handicapper, which always puts on a lot of weight. The entries are: Banastr.-, 122; Standing, 113; Raff actio. Ill; Star Bright. Sidney Lucas, 110; Prince McClurK. 103; King Bramble, lu4; Water Cure, hu; Conroy, Blues, W; Herbert, 9-J.

NEW YORK, May 21.-The preliminary trials and qualifying competitions of the twenty-sixth annual track and field championships of the Intercollegiate Association of the Amateur Athletes of America was held to-day at the Rerkeley Oval, under the most favorable auspices. The finals will take place to-morrow If the weather proves favorable, and new records should be made. The weather to-day was ideal. The feature of to-day's meet from an athletic standpoint was the running of Arthur II. Duffy, of Georgetown. He won his heat of the 100-yards in the most decisive fashion, In the world"s record time of 9 4-5 seconds, but a slight breeze blew against his back and the record will hardly be accepted. Duffy is of opinion that he can repeat the performance in a calm, and the same Idea was shared ,by many exports present. One of the surprises of the day was the poor performance of Meyer rrinstein in the running broad Jump. The Syracuse man holds the world's record of 24 feet 7i inches, and when it whs announced that he could not qualify, and only jumped 21 feet 1 1-5 inches, the crowd was dumfounded. He was sick. A nasty spill occurred in the first heat of the one-mile cycle race. Rarnitz, of Pennsylvania, and Levick, of Princeton, came down at the lower turn and Rae, of Columbia, in trying to avoid a smash-up lost control of his wheel and was precipitated over the rail for a distance of about fifteen feet into the stand. Outside of a few bruises around the face and arms he was not injured. MISCELLANEOUS BREVITIES. The steamer Tactician, at New Orleans, cleared yesterday for Cape Town with 1.S00 horses.

Intercut Centered In the Special Team Knee "Won by Dr. Short The Summaries, The formal opening of the Business Men's Driving Club was held yesterday afternoon and an Interesting programme of ratet was given. The grand stand was crowded and the spectators gathered on both sld.3 of the track. Tart of the races were exciting, but a few of the heats did not elicit much enthusiasm because the horses showed that they needed training and did not go their best gait or put up a good race. The special team race between Dr. Short's Lady Constant and Billy Braggs, and J. C. Slpe's Robert C. and Neath attracted the most attention.

On the back stretch they moved along at a snalllike pace, while the drivers endeavored to get them back to their regular galt. Starter Shideler ran? the bell hoping to bring them back, but as tn word "go" had been given by him, the race could hardly be started over again and the drivers proceeded around the track. Roth teams ran part of the distance. Dr. Short got his team under control first and forged ahead oi Sipe, going under ha wire an easy winner. The second heat wm more interesting, and Sipe's team, driven by Mr. Blair, won. In the third heat Mr. "Blair could not control the team and Short '.von easily. Sam Pierson, who has tried for three years to capture a race at the Rushiesa Men's Driving Club track realized his hopes yesterday by winning the S:00 pace witn Echo Chief.
