Soper, former paator of th Millard Avenue Preabyterlan , church, was on the grill this morning at th meeting of the Portland presbytery at the Marshall Street Presbyterian' church. Mr. Soper has stepped contemptuously on the dignified toe of the presbytery and has not deigned to apologise for his want of respect. It Is proper and fitting and, according to the rules of order of the presbytery that a pastor who wishes to dissolve his relations with his church must first ap prise the congregation of that fact, and then- must tender his resignation to the oresbytery and reauest dismissal ta an other presbytery before ha can sever his relations. This proceeding Mr. Soper disregarded, merely calling a meeting of hla church and informing tnem he was about to leave. A letter wnicn was not marked with the usual dignity of Pres byterian language requested a letter to th presbytery of Chicago and that was alL There wa much debate on th ques tion. The opening announcement by Mr. Farnsworth of - hla congregation, that Mr. Soper had been called by Dr. Hill of Chicago, aa though Dr. Hill took the place of the aource from which most tiastoral calls are aupposed to emanate, irougbt out a shout of amusement and Inclined to place sympathy with the church from which the pastor had un ceremoniously withdrawn and prejudice against the minister who has served there about a year.

Sets a Bad Precedent. Rev. W. 8- Gilbert of Astoria was for letting him off with an expression of regret only because he thought the over sight had not been deliberate and that his Intentions were good. Rev. C. W. Hays reminded him that hell Is said to be paved with good Intentions, and said it was a breach that could not be disre garded becauso It woold set a precedent, and there wan nothing then to prevent every man there from getting up and leaving his charge without notice. Rev. W. 8. Holt said It was a real de reliction, and should be punished as such, and told of a case In the Willam ette presbytery where a similar thing had occurred and the pastor had been refused a letter to the Portland presby tery and the latter had refused to ad mit him. At the same time he under took a defense of Dr. E. P.

He presented his regrets that It would be Impossible for him to attend the congress and as sured the delegates of his hearty sup port In the movement. The letter was received with applause. A telegram from William H. Taft, ex pressing his sympathy with the alms of the congress, was read. A letter from T7. J.

Letters from ssveral foreign mlntatera at Washington were read. Gifford Plnchot. United States fores ter, will not attend the Trans-Mississippi congress. A telegram from him stat ing It would be Impossible for him to attend was read) at the congress today. It Is likely, however, that Plnchot's pol icy In administering the national forest reserve will be made the subject of an ft ttftck A letter from W. L. Marshall, chief engineer of the United States arm v. evoked considerable comment. Marshall had been asked to address the congress on the subject of coast defense. In his reply he says: "On the subject coast defense silence Is golden. We do not wish to express the strength of weakness of our de fenses."
