New York Market Shows
Rise of a 1-8 Points. for
St. Paul for Day. .
New Tork, April IT. A somewhat
more cheerful and optimistic tone could
be detected In the stock market during
the trading of today. There was a
higher rate for call loans due to the
Improved buying for investment and,
taken altogether, the financial situation
took on a brighter hue than for. soms
days. The reports of the railroads In
dicate that an Improvement in traffic
is beginning to make itself felt again
and ' thla probably accounted for the
sharp advance In some of tha leading
rail Issues today. At the close there
was a gain of over $ politfs In St Paul,
1 H In Union Pacific. tn Southern Pa
cific, 1 point In Northern Pacific and a
fraction in Great Northern preferred.
The sales for the day totaled 757,200

Ministers 'Fass Resolution
V Asking for Change in :
Present Custom. .
A resolution was passed this morning
at the Presbytsrlan Mmlsters' assocU
tlon raauestinf tha undertakers of the
city, where It falls In their power, to
refrain from placing runertig on uo-
Amw ' , v
rha matter of the Sunday funerals
has been talked of many Umes, but
nnthlnf eotnes of IL" Said One Of the
ministers. 'Tor soma reason unknown
to others tha undertakers seem to pre
mm kavina- funaraia on that day." ' In
stances were cited of ministers who had
opposed Bunoay xuneraia iuim . .
It would have more force.- sug.
TT. . i- . - m . . n Mr.lntuui came
?rom the general ministerial
tlon." It was finally decided, however,
to let the resolution stand and hope
for Indorsement from the general asso
ciation, nev. enry 7.1
elected to serve tba unexpired term oi
in reference to tha theory of a lata
origin of tha PepUteuch.
Dr. McQaw showed by the rererenoes
to the Pentateuch .In the PIm
and tha familiarity Shown with the
Mosaic dlepeneatkm In the. book of
Deuteronomy, that the PenUUuchmust
hava preceded these. - .u'.' A
His conclusion wss that there il w
sufficient evidence for tha thfry that
some othea than Moses wrote the ( books
ascribed to .m. He stated that It- Is
lmin.a to believe that
forger wrote the books with, the pur
pose of deceiving, since) Moses men
tioned no less than $7 Umes aa tha an-
ll,-U would be psyhologlcally Impos
slble." said Dr. jcOaw. ';f or a man to
put himself so completely Into the
spirit of Moses' tlms aa to produce
works which are so authentic and incon
trovertible. . No onet but Moses could
hsve produced them." - '
in the discussion which followed the
paper. Kev. Charles Hayes held it 1m
poaalble that such a redactor, as a cer
tain type of higher rltlo sums to
have written and harmonised the Scrip
tures, should hava made an Impression
on his own generation sufficiently
marked for him to be known by name.
