THE MORNIXG OREGOA'IAJf, WEDNESDAY, MAY 16, 1906- 4 BURNING ISSUES AT THE ASSEMBLY Principal Subjects of Debate in the Presbyterian Parliament. COMMON FORM OF PRAYER Dr. Van Dyke Will Be Storm Center. Color Line in Hotels Will Cause Trouble May Consummate Chqreli Union. PES MOIN'BS. Iowa. May 15. "If I had to commit suicide I would do it in some other way than by trying to impose a liturpy on the Presbyterian Church," said PROMINENT PRESBYTERIANS Dr. Henry Van Dxke. - Dr. Henry Van Dyke, of Princeton Uni versity, a year aco, when presenting his IroiKi.ed Bxk of Common Worship to the Presbyterian General Assembly. The report submitted at that time by the com mittee of which Dr. Van Dyke was chair man was discussed long and earnestly and at times with a good deal of warmth. After a prolonged discussion the report vias referred baek to the committee, and is to be one of the "burning" questions to be brought before the Assembly when h meets in the Auditorium in this city next Thursday. Dr. Van Dyke pleads for liberty In Pres byterian worship, declaring that there Is room In the Presbyterian Church for dif ferent types of worship. The man with no form at all, he says, is all right, and Uo the man with a new form for every week, and also the man who prefers an orderly form of service. As it Is now. he says, "a bewildering variety prevails In the arrangement of the different parts of the service. It is evidently difficult to a srranger within the gates of one of these Presbyterian Churches to know when to rise up and when to sit down. To meet this difficulty, the orders of service are usually printed from week to week in the form of a time-table and distributed in the pews on Sunday." Kcviscd Marriage Service. The new Presbyterian prayer book has a new marriage service. Dr. Van Dyke i Tlticlws the Kpiscopal marriage, service, ilerlaring It to be. untrue in three par tioulars: That service declares that the marriage is not lawful If certain things aie concealed which ought to be told by the parties before the ceremony. "Thl sae.esi iiung aooui mis matter is, ne cay, "it is lawful and only divorce can terminate the marriage." The second falsehood In the. Episcopal marriage serv ice. In his opinion, is where the husband announces that he weda the wife with the ring and endows her with all his worldly goods, and the third relates to the closing prayer, where Isaac and Re bekah are set forth as the model family. The Presbyterian order recommended that, if persons are joined together otherwise than as God's word allows, that union is not bleased by him. Nothing is said about endowment of the wife. In the proposed service, the giving of the ring Is thus announced: "This ring I give thee in token and pledge of our constant f.iith .and abiding love." Nothing is said about Hebekah and Isaac In the closing prayer. A spirited discussion may be expected when the i-eport Is presented. Speculation ia l ife concerning the opening service on Thursday morning. W ill the devotional ervioes preceding the sermon of the re tiring moderator be according to the new leaver book, or will those having charge f this meeting withhold tacit approval until after the assembly has acted upon ths report? Color Line to Be Drawn. The color question threatens to come up in an acute form In connection with the meet Ing of the assembly. A year ago, at the demand of the Cumberland branch of the Church, whose strength Is mainly in the South and "Vest, the presbyteries decided to allow the formation of separ ate presbyteries and synods, but they drew the line at the assembly: so far they would yield, but beyond this was the "dead line." The negroes must get out of the presbyteries and synods, or the white people would form new ones, but within the four walls of the assembly all men are brothers theoretically. An invisible barrier to the mingling of the white and colored brethren in perfect harmony has been put up by the hotel proprietors, who have declared that they will not entertain a colored man. even though he be a commissioner to the As . sembly. and no matter how worthy he may be considered. Several of the com missioners are highly educated, and no speakers are heard with greater interest and accorded more attention than they, and the action of the proprietors will not affect that relation if the colored men come. As many of the commissioners hold their meetings In the hotels and as much of the pleasure connected with the Assembly centers around the informal conferences and still more informal din nen conversations, from which the ne groes will be excluded .by this hotel order, it may be that the more refined and sen sitive colored members will stay away from the Assembly rather than suffer the humiliation of being forbidden to go w here they have been allowed to go in previous years. This is the first time that the color line has been drawn In any city which has Invited the Assembly to be Its guest, ard It Is not saying too much to add that the Invitation would have been looked at akanc. if not altogether refused. If it had been known in advance that this rift In tha lute was to be made. Next to the prayer-book controversy and the negro problem, the Cumberland ';'; 'v. IV r ' v- . .

The Cumberland Assembly meets this year at Decatur, 111., and it Is prob able that there will be an exchange of visitors: the members of the joint com mittee have become well acquainted In their numerous conferences, but there Is still a good deal of suspicion on tiB part of some of those who have not met their brethren from the other body. It is prob able that the assemblies will take anoth er step forward in consummating the union, and if the legal obstacles can all be overcome this month he Cumberland people may adjourn to meet next year as a portion of the mother church of which they were a constitu ent part a century ago. The union has been strongly opposed upon doctrinal and constitutional grounds; a repetition of the legal controversy in the Presbyterian Church of Scotland is feared by some, but eminent legal and ecclesiastical counsel have assured the committees that every step taken so far has been chosen so wisely that no court would disapprove the action taken. Other Branches of the Presbyterian Church are also considering closer rela tions, some favoring federation and oth ers corporate union. The question of the federation of all the evangelical churches Is also to be taken up at the meetings of the several assemblies this year. Church and Labor Meetings. ' The Assembly in this city will con tinue in session about ten days. Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman, the well-known evan gelist, will be in attendance and have charge of some of the popular meetings. Rev.

New Building for Union Seminary. NEW YORK, May 15. Two anonymous gifts, making a total of 1315,000, to the Union Theological Seminary, were an nounced today at the annual luncheon of the alumni. It Is understood that this money will be used In covering part of the expense of the erection of a new building for the institution on Morning side Heights. Protests Against New Creed. BIRMINGHAM. Ala.. May 15. The General Conference of the M. E. Church, South today listened to protests against yesterday's decision to appoint a commit tee to draw up a new statement of faith. HARVARD PROFESSOR'S STUDY OF MOUNT VESUVIUS. Believes Earth Tremors and Ernp , Hons May Be Reduced to Ordi nary Risks for Insurance. BOSTON. May 13. That it is possible to reduce earthquakes and volcanoes to the level of ordinary risks for insurance and save numberless human lives by a systematic scientific study of earth phys ics Is the opinion of Professor Thomas A. Jaggar. Jr., the Harvard geologist, who has just returned from Italy, where he went to study Mount Vesuvius. Profes sor Jaggar's chief object was to collect specimens and notes concerning the erup tion. On April 25 he climbed the edge of the crater with Drs. Tempest and H. Orson, of Great Britain, going actually inside the rim, despite the fact that steam was still Issuing. On April 26 the scientists climbed Mount Somma. a ridge adjacent to Vesuvius, and the remainder of his time he spent in visiting the ruins of the towns and making collections of dust and ashes, from the microscopic examination of which he expects to glean many new and Important facts of Nature and earth quake disturbances. As a means of forecasting earthquakes. Professor Jaggar said he would like to see at Harvard an endowed laboratory for the study of earth movements, with a view to the protection of human life. "In this way," he said, "we might be able In a few years to make earthquakes and volcanoes ordinary risks for Insur ance and also succeed in preserving a great many lii-es that are lost under present conditions." Had there been such a laboratory in ex istence anywhere. In his opinion, the dis asters resulting from the eruption of Mont Pelee. Mount Vesuvius and the earthquake In California would have been far less appalling. More l4nd for Fort Wright. ORRGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington. May 15. Chairman Tawney. of the House appropriations committee, has promised Representative Jones to insert an item of 8000 in the sundry civil bill for the purchase of additional land near fSpokane for the Fort Wright military reservation.

HE MM PREDICT QUAKES CRAPSEY A HERETIC Court Condemns Him by Ma jority of Five to One. SENTENCED TO SUSPENSION Given Thirty Days to Recant His De nial of Episcopal Creeds One Judge ' Explains Away His Doctrines. ROCHESTER, N. T.. May 15. The verdict in the heresy trial of Rev. Dr. Algernon S. Crapsey was today deliv ered to the accused minister.' Four of the jurors stave that in their opinion sentence should be passed as follows: "That the respondent should be sus pended . from exercising the functions of the church until such time as he shall satisfy the ecclesiastical author ities of the diocese that his belief and Justice Harlan. teaching- conform to the doctrines of the apostles' creed and the Nicene creed as this church hath received the same. However, we express the ear nest hope and desire that the respon dent may see his way clear during the 30 days that under the canons of the church must intervene before sen tence can be pronounced to the full satisfaction of the ecclesiastical au thority of such conformity on his part. "W. C. ROBERTS, "C. H. BOTNTON. 4 "G. S. BURROWS. "JOHN MILLS GILBERT." Cause of the Charges. The charges against Dr. Crapsey grew out of a series of sermons' deliv ered, by him while he was rector of St. Andrew's Church at Rochester and which he subsequently published In book form under the title, "Religion and Politics." In brief the charges de clare that Dr. Crapsey in these writings denies the doctrines of the divinity of Christ, his virgin birth, his resurrec tion and the doctrine of the trinity as contained in the Apostles' and Nicene creeds and the Book of Common Prayer of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States of America. The application made by counsel con ducting the prosecution for leave to amend the presentment so as to include the year 1904 within the period covered by the allegations is denied. Dunham's Minority Tteport. Dr. Francis C. Dunham filed a minor ity report as follows: Whereas. The respondent constantly af firms his acceptance of all the articles of the Christian faith as contained in the Apostles' cred; and. Whereas. This cred deelaj-es the sacred mysteries of our lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and of the most Holy Trinity and -"ft belief in the resurrection of the body, con cerning which eternal verities of the Chris tian religion the said respondent la called In Question. I find from his own statements and the evidence submitted . for his defense that bis error consists rather in presuming to define what God has not been pleased to reveal and to Interpret those doctrines in a manner not generally received by the church rather than In a denial and rejection of their truth and authority. CRAPSEY WILD. APPEAL CASE Court of Review of Church Must Finally Deckle. NEW TORK, May 15. Edward M. Shep ard, of counsel for Dr. Algernon S. Crap sey, at his trial for heresy, declared in this city tonight that the case will prob ably be appealed to the court of review of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the New Tork and New Jersey dioceses. "The notice of appeal." he said, "will stay an enforcement of the decree of the bishops' court until 30 days after the appellate court shall have acted. I sup pose It to be very unlikely that the ap pellate court could hear the case before next Fall." ATTACKS TRACTION DEAL Minority Stockholder Says Big Fl nancier? Keep Terms Secret. NEW TORK, May 15. A special to the Times from Providence. R. I., says-: "A hill of complaint was filed In the United States Circuit Court yesterday by George W. Sabre, of this city, which at tacks the legality of the transfer of stock, franchises, etc., of the United Traction ft Electric Company, to the Rhode Island Securities Company. "The capital stock of Traction Company is $$.0,000. and the complainant owns 400 shares. The same company owned and held the stock of the entire street railway system of this city and Pawtutket. The Rhode Island Securities Company consists of Marsden J. Perry, United States Sena tor N. W. Aldrich and others In this state, as well as New York and Phila delphia capitalists, the United Gas & Im provement Company, of Phtladephia, own ing a majority of the stock. "The entire system was in 19A3 leased to the operating company for a term of 99 years, and dividends of E per cent per an num guaranteed to the stockholders of the United Traction Company. "The plaintiff complains that the lease has never been recorded, that he has been unable to ascertain the terms specified, and that stockholders were not consulted. He asks that the court direct the present controlling interests to make a full accounting." BACKACHE? IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS!

WORLD HIS MARKET Taft Will Buy Canal Supplies at Lowest Price. UNLESS CONGRESS ACTS American Tariff Wall Toes Not Sur round Panama, and Foreign Bids Are Jjower Senator Dick Enters Objectiou. WASHINGTON, May 16. The President today transmitted to Congress a letter from Secretary Taft, accompanied by nu merous appendices, in which the Secre tary, who has the full approval of the President, lays down the principle that supplies for the Panama Canal should be bought in the cheapest market, all things considered, whether American or foreign. When this policy was inaugurated by the Secretary over a year ago he sent a let ter asking Congress if this Impartial buy ing in the best market should be con tinued, and In the letter sent to both houses today Mr. Taft reminds the Presi dent that Congress returned no answer to his questions. Scotch Bids Are Iower. Mr. Taft's letter in the present in stance relates chiefly to the purchase of two sea-going suction dredges. The Maryland Steel Company has put in a bid of 1734,850, while the Scotch firm of Simons A: Co.. of Renfrew, Scotland, of fers to provde the dredges at a cost of I654.C00, delivered at the Clyde. Adding to the latter bid incidental expenses of transportation to Panama, etc.. Mr. Taft, after minute calculations, finds that the Scotch bid ia 8 per cent lower than the American. Mr. Taft states that some purchases have already been made abroad and at a considerable saving, -particularly in ce ment, large quantities of which have been required, as well as other supplies. He then briefly reviews the law in the mat ter, showing that the act of 1S75. giving preference to American producers and manufacturers in making Government purchases applies only to the United States, and not to the canal strip. Not Guarded ny Tariff Wall. Therefore, the result of a consideration of reneral principles of law and the practice of the Government. In the abssnce of spe cific direction to the contrary, is that in the construction of th Panama Canal, in the Canal Zone on the Isthmus, whicfi'-J. outside the tarift wall surrounding- the United States proper and into which, by virtue of the Hay Varllla treaty with the Republic of Panama, material supplies and machinery of all klnda for the construction of the canal are to be introduced free from tarltf imports. It Is your duty to buy where you can obtain the material, supplies and machinery at the cheapest price, other.conditions with respect to quality, prompt delivery, etc., being equa.1 This view, it seems to me. Is confirmed by the failure of Congress to direct any definite course on your part, although the matter was brought to its attention more than a year ago. and your view of your duty in the premises, if Congress took no further action, was clearly indicated. Referring to a reEOlution introduced by Senator Dick, but never acted upon, the Secretary says: Congress Must Act or Shonts Will. If this resolution ia to control the accep tance of bids for the construction of these dredges, then It should be promptly consid ered and passed by Congress. If there is no prospect of early action by Congress, I shall direct Mr. Shouts, unless ordered by you to take a different course, that he accept the bid of William Simons Co.. of Renfrew. Scotland. The Secretary transmits correspondence relative to the purchase of foreign ce ment as sumsnariied by Joseph Bucklin Bishop, secretary of the Canal Commis sion. Mr. Bishop says, in speaking of the 3000 barrels of cement purchased abroad : Foreign Cement as Good and Cheaper . The Commission would not have been jus tified In paying 17400 mere for American cement than for foreign cement, particu larly in view nf the fact that there was n doubt as to th quality of the foreign ce Thousands, both men and women, have kid ney disease and do not know it.

Senator Dick is quoted as protesting against this purchase and saying: "To favor foreign manufacturers with patron age at the expense of business that should bo placed with American Arms, to the benefit of American labor and industry, is not in accord with tne spirit which it seems should dominate those in charge of a public work under the auspices of the American Government." MUTUAL STOPS STAMPEDE . British Policy-Holders Turn Back From Jiorth British. LONDON, May IS. The letter which Harrison Hoge, the new London manaaer of the Mutual L,ife Insurance Company, issued today, warning policy-holders against the "folly of allowing themselves to be carried away by the specious offer" of the North British & Mercantile Insur ance Company, had the direct effect of stopping to some degree the rush of the Ijondon policy-holders of the Mutual to the North British & Mercantile to trans fer their policies, turning the tide toward the Mutual's offices, where many visitors sought information. Mr. Hoge promised to make a full statement of the affairs of the company in a circular tomorrow. Several policy-holders of the Mutual not connected with the "protection commit tee" are endeavoring to form a commit tee to offset the effect of the efforts of Mr. Haldcman and his - associates. The officers of the Mutual say that one-third is the maximum of the policy-holders to whom the North British Company could offer sufficient inducements to make them desert the American company. The Mu tual's Insurance in force in the United Kingdom amounts to $75,000,000. Its sur render value has not yet been computed. JEROME HAS THE RECORDS Secures AH Data About Mutual Life's Legislative Expenses. NEW YORK, May 15. After the ad journment of the insurance grand jury yesterday. District Attorney Jerome an nounced ' that he had secured the entire records of the sojpply. department of the Mutual Life Insurance Company. Wheth er he had secured them upon an order of the court he refused to state. Shortly after the announcement a truck backed up to the Criminal Court building and three huge packing-cases containing vouchers, - books and letter-files, were brought to the District Attorney's office.
