Our governing triumvirate, fully impresed with the importance and desirability of a display commensurate with the dignity of the nat capital, has asked from Congress &n appropriation of $50,000 to defray the ne essary expenses @unected therewith. It is evident that om the treatment accorded this estimate depends the entire success of the Dis- trict’s representation at the fair and no less that of its school system than of any other feature.

The state imposes a tax on the receipts of railroad companies on business done within the state. The Lehigh Valley Rail- road Company enters Philadelphia partly over | the line of the Pennsylvania railroad, situated m= Ne Jersey, and the question arose whether | on — business betw points both within the state of Pennsyivania but which in going from the place of beginning to the place of tion passed over this loop in New Jersey a tax could be im ‘The railroad company contended that this was interstate commerce, and, therefore, beyond the regulation of the state.

Coming Gathering of the Highest Body of the Presbyterian Church, TWO IMPORTANT QUESTIONS TO BE CONSIDERED AND SETTLED—THE MATTER OF THE REVISION OF THE CONFESSION OF FAITH AND THE CASE OF DR. BRIGGS. Next Monday Rev. Dr. William A. Bartlett leaves the city on the long trip to Portland, Oreg., where the general assembly of the Pres- byterian church meets in session. Ho goes as the representative of the presbytery of this city to take part in the deliberations of the highest body in that denomination. The ae- sembly does not convene until the 19th of May, but Dr. Bartlett has an engagement to deliver an address next Tuesday evening before the Presbyterial Union of Chicago, which, like the Presbyterial Alliance in this city, looks after the material progress of the church in the windy city. Mrs. Bartlett will meet him in Chicago and from that point they will go to Portland. About the same time some five or pI clergy and laity of the Presbyterian church will be travel- ing toward the same destination. The lay delegate from this presbytery is Mr. Francis H. Smith. INTEREST IX THE COMING ASSEMBLY. The sessions of the general assembly are al- ways full of interest not merely because it is the highest body in that influential denomina- tion, the Presbyterian church, but also from the fact that there is brought together a body of men who are clergymen and citizens, and a8 arule representative men in the communities from which they come. While there are general reasons which give public interest to a gathering of this character, there are just now special reasons’ which will make this meeting of the assembiy one of the most important that has ever been held, It is expected that the final settlement of two questions which have agitated the church for some time will be reached, One is the re- vision of the confession of faith and the other is the Briggs controversy, as it ia termed. To some extent the action of the assembly has been anticipated on Voth of these questions by the proceedings of the Presbyterians. All the Presbyterians have come to the same conclu- sion in regard to both issues, and in their choice of delegates to represent’ them in the general assembly men have been selected who hold the views of the majority. A canvass of the delegates elected shows that there will bea large majority in the assembly in favor of re- vision and opposed to Dr. Briggs. STATUS OF THE REVISION QUESTION. The status of the revision question is simply this: At the last meeting of the general xs- sembly the committee appointed to consider proposed changes in the confession of faith made their report. During the interval this report has been acted on by the Presbyterians and their action will be reported to the ase bly. As is familiar to those who have followed the discussions, the report of tne assembl: committee recommend as the principal changes a new chapter in regard to the love of God and modifications in the language in various sections, It is stated that this report has met with the approval of a majority of the presbyteries and it is claimed for it that it does not impair the intogrity of the Calvinistic doctrines, At any rate there has been a marked change in the sentiment of the church relative to revision, which is believed to be due to the discovery that the purposes of those favoring revision were not as radical as at first supposed. ‘The reports of the presbyterics in regard to _ revision will be referred to a com- mittee and areport based upon them will be made to the assembly. In the event that a report recommending changes is adopted this tion will be final and in the future the re- ised copies of the confession will form the doctrinal standards of the church. These re- visions, a8 a question agitating the churches, will be set at rest anda peaceful solution wili be reached in # controversy which appeared at the outset to threaten the unity of the denom- ination, ‘THE BRIGGS CASR. In some quarters the other important matter which will come before the assembly, namely, the Briggs case, is regarded as of equal import- ance as that of the revision of the confession of ith. Dr. Briggs isa professor in the Union Theological Seminary in New York city He has been advocating views in regaid to the in- spiration of the Bible and the authenticity of its facts which are not considered orthodox. He is said, however, to represent the school in theology which is ‘spoken of as the higher criticism, and it has been held that he &presses the views of a iarge body of the clergy of the de- nomination. At the last session of the assembly the question came up over the approval of the appointment of Prot. Briggs to a chair in the seminary, such approval being made necessary under the terms of the agreement between the seminary and the church. The assembly dis- approved of this appointment, and the direc- tors of the seminary have refused to accept the authority of the assembly, and have decided to retain Prof. Briggs. In a sense the semi- nary now occupies the position toward the as- sembly of what is known in legal parlance as contempt. The present assembly must decide what to do. Itis the general opinion that the decision reached will be to sever the relations that exist with the seminary. In that event the seminary will be an independent institu- tion, and no longer under the care of the hurch, EXACTLY WHAT THE SEMINARY'S FRIENDS DESIRE, It is said that this is exactly what the friends of the seminary desire, It will continue in its work of educating men for the ministry, the only difference being that students receiving support from the funds of the Presbyterian church will not be sent there, and when its graduates come be- fore the presbyteries for examination to be li- censed as ministers they will be subjected to a severe examination, especially as relating to their belief. It is ‘asserted that Prof. Briggs tends toward the position occupied by some of the German critics, who practically eliminate the divine from the Bible and make it « merely human book. It is this tendency which is op. d by tho Presbyterian church and it is claimed that the presbyteries are overwhelm- ingly opposed to Dr. Briggs in the present controversy. In the opinion of Dr. Bartlett the coming assembly will be a harmonious one and the re- sult of their deliberations will be to strengthen the church and to advance its interests, having disposed of the questions in controversy in a spirit of fairness und harmony. ae Going to the General Conference. Quite a number of prominent men in the A. M. E. church, delegates from the different an- nual conferences to the general conference, which began its sessions in Philadelphia yester- day, have been visiting in this city for two or three days, Among the most prominent of these men are Bishop Daniel A. Payne, D. L.L.D., the senior bishop of the A.M. E. chureh, who is eighty-one years of age; Right Rey, W. J. Gaines of Georgia, presiding bishop of the sixth Eptacopal district; Rev. C. L.

Opening of the Twenty-fourth Quadrennia! Conference. The twenty-fourth conference of the M. E. church was calied to order at Boyd's Opera House, Omaha, yesterday morn- ing by Bishop Bowman and Mr. 8. Monroe was elected permanent secretary. The morning session was devoted to a discussion of the proposition to seat the lay delogates separate from the clergy. During the discussion Dr. John Lanaban said he wished to congratulate the laymen upon the demand. He had always believed that the laymen had been at a great disadvantage in sitting among the ministers in the conference. He believed that the laymen would have more influence by being seated separately. He believed that the ministers would be pleased to have the laymen seated separately if they wished to have it so. Mr. Sinkle of Kentucky vigor combated the idea of separate seati mot con- gratulate the laymen upon this demand for separate seating,” said Mr, Sinkle. “I knew that we had the ‘meeting the other night, and seventy-one out of about one hundred laymen voted for the separate seating. They wanted the gpeep and ‘the goats separated, | Some thor y should be called sheep and lamba, Well, I want to plead for tho lamba. I want the laymen and ministers seated together. I want the advice of the ministers, and I want to get advice occasionally from tho laymen. If wo are seated separately it will have the ap- pearance of antagonism. “The Methodist church is not a divided body. It is one church for ministers and laymen. If we Inymen are shoved off in one corner we shall appear to be interlopers when we go over to speak to the ministerial delegates. I want equal representation in the conference for the laymen, remember, but I am opposed to the separation of the lay and ministerial delegutes, Please, brethren, do not separate the laymen from the ministers. Ido not want to be sepa- rated from the ministers, “Lhave never yet becn advised ina general conference to do ‘a wrong thing by a minister. T hope, brethren, this resolution will not carry. Itis a wrong step, and we shall rogret it if the laymen and ministers are separated. Mr. Murray, of central Pennsylvania, a lay delegate, said they were glad to do honor to the ministers, but they wanted to be seated by themselves for the influence it would give in the conference. ‘They had lost their individ- uality heretofore, as nineteen laymen had been interspersed between over 300 ministers. One advantage the proposed order of things would give would be the possibility of conferring to- gether. ‘They merely wanted to be place an equality with the ministers, Mr. Field of Philadeiphia said that there was no thought of arousing antagonism be- tween the laymen and the ministers. The de- sire was to create a closer union, by placing the laymen whero they could do the most for the interests they represented. Dr. J. M. Buckley, editor of the Christian Advocate of New York city, then took the floor. He said the object of giving laymen repreven- tation in the conference was not to inercase the size of the body, but to secure the assist- ance of the laymen in the framing of the laws of the church. Had the laymen been given a fair chance to exercise equal power with the ministers? Dr. Buckley thouzht not. He r counted the history of the conference legisla. tion upon the subject, and held that the laymen had been handicaped by failing to get a sep- arate vote in the conference when they had de- manded it, “Nine-tenths of tho laymen,” said he, “at- tend but one general conference, but the min- isterial delegates usually go to conference after conference, and the bishops who preside know them. The bishops are not acquainted with the laymen, and when they arise on the floor of the conference along with half a dozen min- isters what is the usuxl result? The presiding officer usually recognizes some ministerial dele gate and the laymab sits down.” Dr. Lewis C. Curtis of Chicago said that it was simply a question of privilege for the lay- men and not of compulsion, If’ they wanted to sit by themselves the ministers could not do less than to grant their request. F. H. Root of Buffalo, a layman, spoke in op- position to the separate seating ‘scheme. He wished to see harmony and unity all through, aud he believed that separate seating would result in a semblance, at least, of discord and a lack of unity of purpose. Ex-Gov. Evans of Colorado stated that some- body had evidently been scared before they were hurt. There seemed to be a little appré- hension that they were not ail members of the same church. He could not understand wh: the ministers were afraid that the laymen think it wise to condemn a thing just because it was proposed by a layman of the conference. and hoped the ministers would see that thero was danger in voting against the resolution. After a long wrangle, during which many amendments and counter motions were made, the conference decided to ullow lay delogutes who so desired to select seats separate from the ministerial delegates, On motion of Dr. Pullman, a section of the hall was set apart for the delegates, and then the choice of seats by lot was commenced. ‘This lasted until 7:30 in the evening, when the conference adjourned before the drawing of lots had been completed. THE COLORED METHODIST. The quadrennial conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, which is to con- tinue three weeks, began in Philadelphia yes- terday. Nine bishops resent, representing every state in the Union. in addition. delegates are present from Canada, Nova Scotia, Bermuda, Suan Domingo, Wayti, Sierra Leone and Liberia, Amoug the notable personages, lay and clerical, in attendance at the conference are Bishop D. ‘A. Payne ot Ohio, now in his cightieth year, who has occupied the episcopal chair for forty-two years, and who is the founder of the €150,000 ‘university near Xenia, Ohio; W.A.A. Whitman of Arkansas, Dr. W. B, Deraick, a West Indian by birth’ who represents the New York conference; J. E. Len, acireuit judge in Florida, and Bishop Tanner. who is foremost in the religious litera- ture of his race. 3 ‘The most important business to Be trans- acted by the conference is the selection of three bishops, two to fill the vacancies mado by the deaths of Bisbop J.
