Form of Worship Debate! by
Presbyterian Assembly
OPPOSITION TO SET "FORMS
Van Dyke and Harlan Defend 'cv
Scliemg, but It Goes Ovcrior a
VYearSale Of "Whisky,
nt University.
WINONA LAKE, May 26. Both ses
sions of the General Assembly of tho
Presbyterian Church were devoted almost
entirely to discussion of the reports of
thfc- committee on forms of service and the
committee on temperance. For three
hours the report on forms of ?-lce was
debated by at least 100 speakers, chief
among whom were Dr. Henry Van Dyke,
chairman of the committee and author of
"The Book of Prayer," and' Justice Har
lan, of the United States Supreme Court.
The debate was about equally divided,
with the result that the roport. together
with the "Book of Prayer," which it was
suggested should be adopted by the Gen
eral Assembly as a part of a fixed form
of oarvlce, was referred to an enlarged
committee. Resolutions adopted in con
junction with debate on the roport pro
vided: In case tho enlarged committee reaches
a definite and satisfactory completion of -its
wotk during the prcf-ent yenr. we-aiitliorize
the- publication of the book o worship by
tfm-board of publication tnd Sunday school
work, in order that the church may have the
opportunity to test the forms of worship-and
prayers and the committee is to make its
final report to the next General Assembly.
Defends Form ot Prayer.
The form of worship which the com
mittee offered ,was regarded as mild in
tone, and the opposition to it made its
objection on " the general ground that
the Presbyterian Church it; not a de
nomination for rituals, printed prayers
arid fixed forms. Many of the commis
sioners objected to the Vandyke effort
for the reason that if it were approved
by the General Assembly it might
prove. in later years to be a stepping
stone 'to. some form of worship more
radical and -obligatory.
Dr. -fnaykc said the report of the
committee had b,oon misunderstood.
"I hate rituals and forms and ceremo
nies." .he' :5aJd. ""We have' here a vol
untary service for thoae "who .want It,
for the common democracy in the Pros
byter'Jkn Church. I cannot bear to
have Jt'-ealler! even :l HtJircrv. If I
wanted to commit suicide, I would l
choose some other way than by trying
to Impose a liturgy upon the Presby
terian Church. This committee for two
years has been trying to do Just tho
other thing. Sixteen hundred Presby
terian ministers have -written ' to the
t ommittec for- a book or worship. Go
ino a Presbyterian Church today, and
you do not know what is coming next.
Of course, you know the collection is
not coming first. " (Laughter.) How
shall we meet this condition?"
Xot Canned Prayers.
Dr. Vandyke said someone hud called
these prepared prayers "canned pray
ers." .but for two years he had bcyri
toiling on these prayers. Tcifrs caino
Into his eyes. when he said ho had in
tlKsse two years gone to the mercy seat
of God.
.A motjon by a commissioner .o ap
prove the report started the opposi
tion. Thero was a motion to reject the
report and dismiss the committee. An
other commissioner moved that the
words "Holy Ghost" used throughout
the book of prayers be changed to
"Holy Spirit." Three or four commis
sioners were on the -floor at one time
to, get permission to speak.
There was a storm of applause when
Justice John M. Harlan began --a de
fense of the committee's work.
Therc are men who can n ox pTay in
public or private, and if such a man
wants to use a written prayer, why not
let him do It. There are written pray
ers in the Bible."
A suggestion by Hev. Mr. Kelley. of
Pennsylvania, that, the report, bo sent
back to the committee, to coma np
rcxt year, met with pronounced oppo
sition. Most of the gray-haired, com
missioners who spoke were against the
took of prayers while a, majority of
tsc younger, members were for Jt.
Dr. McAfee, of Brooklyn, moved to
send the reporc back to an enlarged
committee, -with instructions to revise
the service for infant baptism and to
make other changes. Under his mo
tion the prayer book would have to
pass many presbyteries before it gets
to the assembly t 'Des MoLnos next
May. The' motion committe.d -.tjio -as-sT?rably
.to give its approval" to the
worlt tf:the enlarged committee, which
was vigorously opposed. , , .
Sold Iquor at Col lest."
The Assembly closed late in "jjjje after
noon with a vigorous debate over the
resolutions, offorod by the temperance
committee. Tho debate, was precipitated
by Rev. Alfred Kelly, of Fraser; Pa. who
declared that there Is one Presbyterian
University which permits its students to
buy Intoxicating liquors from- a resort
near the campus. " He asked the" Assembly
to pass a resolution which would stop the
practice. When a commissioner as-Red
that the university be named oh the floor
of the Assembly, he was answered by
cries of "No." and during the debate
the name of the school was not spoken.
Before adjournment the . Assembly
passed a resolution censuring the man
agement of any college -or university per
mitting the students to drink Intoxicating
jlquors- The use df tobacco and the. man
ufacture and sale of cigarettes were
condemned.
The Assembly has heard all reports, ex
tent that of the committee on, narrative,
which will come up -tomorrow. Rev; W.

GREAT BANKER IS DEAD
Baron .Alphonse de Rothschild, Head
of Paris Branch.
PARIS. May 26. Baron Alphonse de
Rothschild, head of the French branch of
.the banking houso bearing the name of-
Rothschild, and governor of the Bank or
France, died at 4:30 this morning from
acute bronchitis, aggravated .by gout
Tho eminent financier had been sinking
slowly for many days, but there was no
apprehension that "his death was immi
nent' llq first took to his bed two -weeks
ago. Several rallies gave promise. oWJil's
recovery. Two days ago- tho J3arori be
gan to 'fall rapidly and his condition as
sumed a disquieting form. - ' '
Although ho. .kept, up an animated; con
versation" with'members of his Xamilyan"d
old servants, the patient became very
weak, and last night .entered into a comai;
tose state aha passed away this morn
ing peacefully, surrounded by his family.
The announcement of " the Baron's. death
caused, widespread regret, for, besides his
position -in the financial world, Baron Al
phonse was, -known for his Javlsh char
lticf, tne pt .tfie latest being the gift of
$2,000,090 for the erection of workmen's
homes. .
The news of the Baron's . death caused
a deep impression among financiers gen
erally. It was said that his death would
probably momentarily Influence the ex
tensive' Interests in which the house Is
concerned, but that it would not have a
lasting effect on the markets.
The dcccas'ed," who was born in 1E27,
will be -succeeded as, head of the Paris
banking-house by Baron Lambert de
Rothschild, of-Brussels, whose business
capacity has' earned blm a world-wide
reputation.
The burial of Baroii Alphonse will be
s!mp!e. according to tho strict rule of
the Rothschild family, including a plain
coffin without mourning tributes. The
funeral date which has not yot been fixed,
wIH- be the occasion of a notable tributo
of respect
A member of a French-American banking-house
said:
"Baron Alphonse was the loading spirit
of the Rothschilds in their relations with
practically all the governments of Europe.
Besides the colossal task of financing
the indemnity which France paid to Ger
many after the Franco-German "War of
1S70-71, ho actively carried on relations
with other governments. In Italy, these
included both the government and the
Vatican linances. The house also has
large interests In Spain, largely controls
Russia's railroad development and holds
considerable parts of all the old Russian
loan issues. The house, however, has not
exercised a controlling influence fn the
new Russian loan.
"The large industrial Interests of the
house in Russia include the petroleum
fields of Baku. The house has also had
considerable dealings with American se
curities through the Beimonts, J. Pior
pont Morgan and John W. Gates, includ
ing Louis-ille & Nashville and the At
lantic Coast Line transportation and also
has extensive interests in mines in Cali
fornia." Baron Alphonse was a member of the
Academy of Fine Arts,-a member of the
French Institute and a commander of
the Legion of Honor. He leaves two chil
dren. Baron Edouard and Baroness Bea
trix, lie has two surviving brothers,
Baron Gustav and Baron Edmond.

CRASH OF TROLLEY - CARS
Hundred Plc'asurc-Scckcrs at Balti
more Badly Injured.
BALTIMORE, May 26. William Stem
lor was almost Instantly killed and half
a hundred men and women were Injured,
several of them seriously, in a collision
between two trolley 1 cars returning to
the city from Wnstport, a suburb of this
city, early this morning.
In the neighborhood of the terminus of
"VVestport car line are several Summer
resorts, and the cars which were the last
to the city, were filled with belated pleasure-seekers.
The last car had reached a
point where the tracks cross those of the
"Western Maryland railroad's tidewater
extension. The conductor had gone
ahead, as in customary to make sure that
no railroad train was approaching. Be
fore he could signal the motorman that
the crossing was clear, the last car ap
peared at the top of a steep grade, at the
bottom of which the "Western Maryland
tracks cross the railroad. The rear car
was running at full speed. The motor
man. Sebastian Hclldorfer. attempted to
stop It. but the brakes failed to hold, and
the car rushed down the incline with
constantly Increasing speed. There was
a crash that aroused the neighborhood,
and then shrieks that were heard in the
city, whlcb is separated from- the scene
of the accident by a wide arm of the
Patapsco River, known as Spring Gar
dens. . The forward car was hurled clear across
the railroad tracks, and both it and the
one that followed were badly wrecked.
The lights were extinguished and those
who remained in the cars fought each
other in their efforts to fscapc, and in
doing so trampled those who had been
thrown to the ground by 'the collision.
The fire bells of Wcstport summoned
the citizens of the town, and they set to
work to-aid the injured and telephoned
to this city for ambulances and further
aid. which was promptly sent , "When
light was obtained Stomler was found,
horribly mangled, on the rear platform
of the forward car. upon which he had
been riding. His arm had been torn from
his body. He was still alive, but died a
few minutes after being taken from the
wreck. The motorman was found in an
unconscious condition, on the front plat
form of his car. His escape from Instant
death Is little short of miraculous. He
was. taken to a hospital, and is not ex
pected to live.
Private carriages belonging to residents
of the neighborhood were used to bring
the injured to the city, and as, soon as
possible -after the accidont the railway
company sent special cars to assist In
this work.

for May delivery today following the

complete evidence of the end of the at

for the drop In prices was the report of
liberal receipts, arrivals today being 40S

tracts. The withdrawal ot 123.000 bushels
of contract com from private elevators
was another factor that tended to dis

Mutualization of Equitable Life
Forbidden.
MUSIVNOT AMEND CHARTER
Justice Maddox Says Stockholders
Neycr.Hida Chance to Vote on
Plan Which Might Deprive
Them of Property.
NEW YORK, May 2S. The motion ot
Franklin B. Lord, which sought to re
strain the directors of the Equitable Life
Assurance Society from mutuaHzing the
company, was granted today by Justice
Maddox. in the Supreme Court in Brook
lyn. In granting the motion. Justice Mad
dox said, after reviewing the facts in the
case:
"The motion, therefore, is granted, but
is limited to the filing and effectuation of
such proposed amended charters, for it
appears that such contemplated amend
ment has been adopted and executed by
the board of directors."
The injunction against the mutualization
of tho society Is to be in force only pend
ing the trial of the action which also in
volves the same question.
In his decision Justice Maddox sustained
the contention that the Equitable stock
holders never had jl chance to vote on
the mutualization plans, and rejects as of
no merit the suggestion made in court by
counsel for James H. Hyde that the as
sent of a majority of the stock was suffi
cient even If no stockholder's meeting
had been held. The Justice quoted from
former judicial decisions to the effect that
the Equitable was a stock, not a member
ship, corporation, and that policy-holders
are not members of the company. To de
prive the owner of stock of the right to
vote for the management of the compare.
Justice Maddox herd, might be the same
as depriving him of his property.
The Justice did not express an opinion
as to the ownership of the company's sur
plus 'further than to say that whatever
right If any, the stockholders may have
to the surplus must await the company's
final distribution, while the policy-holders'
right Is dependent on his policy and Its
continuance, and must be determined by
the terms of the policy.
In conclusion Justice Maddox said:
The Internal differences between ome of
the gentlemen most prominently connected
with the management ot the company hava
had no weight with the court In this mo
tion. The intentions ot all are presumed to
be for the good of those Interested and it is
for the court only to consider and fearlessly
to determine the questions presented.
The motions to strike out certain state
ments contained in the plaintiff's papers
and in the intervening petition filed by
James H. Hyde and William H. Mclntyre
are denied. The motions were made by
counsel for James W. Alexander, presi
dent of the Equitable.

into the operations ot life-insurance com

mined, after careful consideration of the
subject and inquiry into the legal phases,
that in the entire circumstances the Gov
ernment has no authority to take up tho
matter, cither through a special commis
sion or through the Bureau of Corpora

ment of the law officers of the Govern
ment whether Congress Itself could con-
