The annual tournament of the Lawn Tennis Association was begun yesterday at Mt Washington under most faverable sus- Picea, The day was superbly beautiful, a gentle breeze blowing from the east, and the turf denced their appreciation of good playing by generous applause. This tournament will be Temembered as the most successfal meeting ever held by the association. In all there were twenty entries in singles,the Washington players numbering six, as follows: Davidson, Wood- ward, Metcalf,’ McPherson, Boag, Shields and Geoghegan. Consi the fact that our players have had less than two weeks’ practice this year, their records in, the contests yestor day are most gratifying. binved in good form’ in two hard-on = matches, the first with Neeley of Princeton, young collegian, who took tho first set by a score of 11-9. Davidson, however, pulled away the next two sets andthe match 60,63. Then the Washington champion met Parker of New York, who gave him a hard tussle in a three- get match, which Davidson finally won—£-, 62, 9-7. ‘The contest of the afternoon, however, which excited most interest was that between Hobart and Stevens. The former ranks as the third Dest player in the country and Mr. Stevens is among the first ten. other contests were Post, of course, yielded the contest, being ‘clearly outclassed, but he ed his tennis talent to advantage at critical times and se- several especially in Tho Washington players are now out of the race with the exception of Davidson, who will play Geoghegan today and will probably meet Chace later on. ‘Aa the latter ranks among the first ten players the result of this contest may beeasily predicted, although the Wash- ington champion will make Chace play his strongest game. ‘He has practiced very little this vear, and is entirely outof form The match went to Hobart, 6-2, 6-3. In tho consolation games McPherson and Woodward alone remain of the Washington players. Post is, of course, looked upen as the winner of this prize. ‘The finals in = will be determined be- tween Chace and Hobart, with the chances in favor of the latter, who will then ba pono Hall for the championship. As he has never beaten Hall in a cham ip match, the cup will probably remain in the latter's possession. The doubles will be played todayand the tournament will pro! on Friday with the championship mat as the attractive feature. ‘The scores up to date are as follows: In the preliminary round Shields beat Hink- ley, 6-1, 6-1; Davidson beat Nealy, 9-11, 6-0,6-8; Metcalf beat Boag, 6-8, 6-0; Smith beat Pen- , 6-4, 6-2.

Mr. Gladstone said that he concurred in the hope, but nevertheless it was impossible to ac- cept the proposed amendment. ir.

It seemed clear that the functions the bill proposed to throw upon tho viceroy could not possibly be ‘performed. aes LONDON’S MARKET DEPRESSED. Uneasiness Caused by the Failure of Fred- erick Woodhall & Co. Loxpox, May 31.—A feeling of insecurity de- veloped after the official close of the stock ex- change yesterday evening and the market opened this morning considerably depressed. There is at this hour (12:30 p. m.) great re to sell, but there are few buyers. ‘The general feeling is to lower prices. ‘The failure was announced this morning of Frederick Woodhall & Co., general brokers, whose offices are at No. 1 Cushion court, old Broad street. The house was o large one and its failure has caused the general uneasiness to increase. It is feared that other failures will follow. cLosED quiet. ‘The stock exchange closed quiet today. The fact that it was Derby day caused a elim attend- ance and another failure was announced.

Heretofore Mr. Carlisle has given audiences to all who have had any business with him, but he has found that this course will not allow of him devoting the fime to the business of the department that he should, and he has consequently decided to retire to bis private room and see those whose business with him is pertinent. —o— They Want to Resume. A majority of the shareholders of the Chem- ical National Bank of Chicago, which recently closed its doors, have communicated with Con- troller Eckels asking permission to resume business. They state their belief that they will be able to piace the bank on a firm financial basis and continue the bank with success if they are allowed another opportunity. A committee from the bank will arrive in this city this even- ing and will be accorded an interview by the controller. —_____-«-_____ ‘Want the Name Changed. tion of the revenue marine service changed to Was formerly known.

Seeretary Carlisle has within the pest few days received a number of telegrams which more than confirm the press dispatches from the northern Pacific coast unearthing *con- spiracy to smuggle Chineso and opium into this countrys, The dispatches are with- held from the public for the present, but it is pas | intimated that aflairs are eves worse than has side | been published, and that an investigation may implicate government officials. inspectors Wood and Lewin are detailed on this matter and a thorough sifting of this fraud will be made.

An Uneasy Feeling in the Pension Office Outside the Classified Service. It is expected that something will drop in the pension office in a few days, and republican officials of that bureau who are outside of the classified service are feeling » little qualmish. They fear they may be outside of the breast- works before long. Secretary Hoke Smith bad a long conference this afternoon behind closed doors with Assist- ant Secretary Reynolds, Commissioner of Pen- sions Lochren and Depaty Commissioner Mur- phy. It is thought tha: ponsion oflice appoint- ments and changes formed the subject of the conference. pe AN IMPORTANT QUESTION. Do the Members of the California Debris Commission Forfeit Their Army Positions? An interesting question has arisen at the War Department in connection with the so-called California debris commission. This commis- sion was created by a special act of the last Congress for the purposo of devis- ing some system of removing deposits in the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers in California, resulting from hydraulic mining operations. The commission is com Col, George H. Mondell, Lieut. Col. H. Benyaurd and Moj. Wm. H. Heuer, ali of the corps of engineers, United States army. “They were recenily appointed by. the Pres dent subject to the confirmation of the Senate. officers are all on duty on the Pacific coast and are rendy to enter on the discharge of the new duties assimned to them as soon as the question now before the ment sball have been determined. is whether the acceptance of the now offices by the engineer will ize their commissions in tho army. question was raised by Col. Mendell, president of the commission. He called atten: tion to the statutes probibiting officers of the army from accepting civilian (positions and de claring that such acceptance will be regarded asequivalent to the surrender of their com- mn. He does not hold that these statutes apply to membership on the California com- n, but merely suggests that the question be settled before the commission begins its work. The of War has'asked the Attorney General for an opinion on the subject. The impression iu army circles is that the statutes in question do not apply to this case. The de- cision will be awaited with interest, a THE SITE. East Washington Makes a Vigorous Protest Against the Hospital Si East Washington ¢ntered a vigorous protest, through its representatives, at the District building today against the location of a con- tagious disease hospital in square 1112. General Wm. Birney, chairman of a commit- tee to bring this matter to the attention of the Commusioners, was the first to speak. He called attention to the act providing for the purchase of a site and particular stress upon the clauso which Provides that the Commissioners shall purchase asite only upon their inability to find a suita- ble site owned by the general government or ‘the District. The Commissioners therefore, he maintained, had no right to purchase site if asuitable site owned by the govern- ment or the District could be found. He thought such » site could be found For instance there was the observatory. grounds, containing some nineteen acres a large portion of which was unused, This was ample. There was another site, namely, the Arsenal grounds, contaiming twenty-eight acres. A hospital could be built at the water's edge in these grounds, and would make a capitalsite. Of course there would be objection from the officers stationed there on account of the proximity of the hospital to their dwellings. But the build- ings were all at one end of the ground and the hospital could be placed a third of a mile dis- tant. AGAINST Park was ample in its acreage to afford a goodsite and was reat The hos- pital might be located in some remote part of the park. ‘There were 1,600 acres in the Rock, Creek Park and he was ‘sure there were any number of sites within its bounds. He thought before the Commissioners de- cided upon a location for a contagious disease hospital they should look into the adapt- ability of the government sites. East Washington had enough _ disagreeable institutions. ‘There was a universal feeling in East Washington against the location of the hospital. [t was not because the hospital would realy disseminate disease, but the dread of the citizens that made tho establishment of a hos- pital in a residence section objectionable, ‘MR. LEHMAN'S PROTEST. Mr. F. A. Lehman said about one year ago the grand jury made recommendation that the old smallpox hospital back of the jail be re- moved. There within a stone's throw was the Eastern branch, having hundreds of acres of marshy land exposed to the sun every day. The sewage from a contagious hospital would empty into the branch and disease dis- seminated, for there was not sufficient current take ' it off. The establishment of this hospital would affect property for seventy juares thereabouts. Any ono of the prop- erty holders within that area could go before the courts and get an injunction against the Commissioners. a ee A Verdict of Not Guilty. In the Criminal Court, division 1, Judge Mc- Comas, this morning a verdict of not guilty was found in the case of Perry H. Carson and Perry Green, two colored boys, charged with larceny and housebreaking. Tuere was another boy, Frank Clark, charged, but he was not in cus- tody. Ygnocio Aquilar was the complaining witness, who charged that on September 11 last the boys broke into hia fruit stand, 526 Penn- sylvania avenue, taking $8. Then, through Mr. W. H. H. Hart, they proved that in the affair they took no part. WHEN CONGRESS WILL BE CALLED. He May Continue to Serve on the Inter- It appears that the President is unwilling to| The WASHINGTON, D. C.

He had gone on preaching penly, and the church had protested more strenuoudy. Now had come face to face. Dr. Briggs’ ’ views come within the limits Presbyteriaar Ouureli wee not Ssaay to m was. not make such o radical reformation as would be meant by am adoption of his views, JAMES A. CURRY. Elder James A. Curry of Ebenezer presby- tery of Kentucky summed up some of Dr. Briggs’ utterances and declared that these avowals were destructive of fundamental prin- ciples of the Presbyterian Church and should be condemned. DE, WILLIAM ©. YOUNG. Ex-Moderator Young said that he agreed with what Dr. Smith had said with reference to the ease. In his opinion the essenoeof the caso was in the fifth charge. His views were not pode « ‘to the tenets of the Presbyterian Chureh but also to all the principles ‘of vam: golical theology. REDER CAMERON OF DETROIT. Mr. John Cameron of the synod of Michigan said that he believed in toleration and thought that Dr. Briggs was within the limits of Pres- byterianism. MR. 8, M. CUTCHEON. Mr. 8M. Cutcheon of Detroit began first with a question of privilege by stating that he had sat within the railing by Dr. Briggs’ side, having been asked by Dr. Briggs to sit as his advisor, not as his counsel, but simply in an advisory capacity. In a civil court this would bar him from acting asa juror in the ease. He hardly thought it would seemly, under the circumstances, to give his views on the ques- tion at issue, and,to give himself the benefit of the doubt, he would ask that he be excused from voting upon the ease. ‘The question was put whether Mr. Cutcheon should be excused, and it was carried with only one dissenting voice, that of Dr. Roberts, the stated clerk. : REY. W. 8. JEROME. Rev. W. 8. Jerome of Detroit declared that he was heartily in favor of not sustaining the appeal. He believed that the presbytery of New York acted wisely. Nor did he think that if they approved the action of the presbytery they were indorsing Dr. Briggs’ views. He never know that the.future of Martineau or of Newman or any other man was a cardinal point in the Presbyterian faith. If Dr. Briggs was a heretic on the int ‘of the authorship of Moses or there were many herotics in the church. He referred to-rulings of Dr. Moffatt, Rev. Dr. Green and others. He submitted that there was not in the charges sufficient ground for placing aman on trial for his ecelesiastic life. He would vote not to sustain the appeal, not that he approved Dr. Briggs’ views, but beeause he believed he was within the liberty that should be allowed to scholars. REV. FRANK G. ELLETT. Rov. Frank G. Ellett of Fiint, Mich., said that they should inquire where history would place Dr. Brigga. ‘They represented a church that was not altogother evangelical. There were only about eight converts to each of their min- isters, Was the Presbyterian Church doing its whole duty to tho unconverted? He spoke of the fact that people were attacking the church on the line, as they claimed, of reason. He Delicved history would show that Dr. Briggs bad been raised up to evangelize the church by showing that God could be found through the reason. Dr. Briggs wanted tho church to stand forth as against the men that were carrying away the world on the line of reason and to show that God was working through the reason. He belioved that Dr. Briggs was laying the foundation for a broader and more evangelical church. ELDER LAW. Elder Wm. Law of Flint, Mich., declared his belief that the New York presbytery had not obeyed the mandate of the assembly when they found that in the presbytery the Word of God had been assailed. He believed they should vote to sustain the appeal. Charles Kelsey of Lake Superior presbytery, Michigan, aleo spoke in favor of sustaining the & | appeal. REY. LEONIDAS TH. DAVIS. ‘Mr. Davis of Grand Rapids said that he felt it was necessary for him to accept Dr. Briggs as the best exponent of his own views. MR. MONTEITH. ‘Mr. Thomas Monteith of Kalamazoo held that the fifth charge was principally worthy of atten- tion, He did not think the assembly conld ‘ize _the Union Seminary so long as it sustained Dr. Briggs in the views he held. REV. HARVEY 8. OJRDAN. Mr. Jordan of Lansing presented a number of questions bearing upon the matter at issue. He asked whether Dr. Briggs had lied when he stated his views and positions. Had the er- tancy of the Scriptures never befgre been called in question? Would all those who voted to sustain the appeal thereby become orthodox? Would all who voted against sustaining it thus become heretics? REY. WM. B, GREENSUIELDS. Rev. Wm. B. Greenshields of Duluth, Minn., said that thex bad been told again and again that Dr. Briggs was the best interpreter of his own language; but were they to tako his expla- nations when they ran counter to his inaugural? Still he understood he had refused to make any changes in his inaugural and he was not in- clined to vote not to sustain the appenl unless he-retracted or changed the statements in his address. REV. 3. C. CONRAD. Rev. Mr. Conrad of Mankato, Minn, said that he had two sons who had studied under Dr. Briggs, and who held him in the highest esteom. They did not subscribe to his views, but they desired to have him acquitted be- cause he was not so unorthodox as he seemed, for many of his views were put forward simply to bring him a little notoriety. PASSING THE TIME LIMIT. A few minutes after 12 o'clock a member rose and called attention to the fact that the two hours had expired. Ho wanted to know if it would not require a motion to continue the discussion. The moderator said he honed no member would call up that question or they would get into a tangle. Dr. Harsha moved that the discussion now close. ‘The motion was lost. Dr. Roberts made the point, amid laughter, that the roll was being called’ and no one ex- cept the person whove name wus called could be recognized. ‘The call of the roll proceeded, the moderator remarking jocularly it he would put back the hands of the clock. CHARLES T. THOMPSON. Mr. Thompson of Minneapolis said that he had come here in favor of sending the case back to the synod, but opposed to Dr. Briggs on the ‘merits of the case. “I know nothing of theology. Thank God, I do know nothing about theology; but I am con- yineed that the prosecuting committeo has failed to make make outa case, and I would give Dr. Briggs the benofit of the doubt.” ELDER FRANCESCO ¥. DECOSTER. Elder DeCoster of St. Cloud, Minn., said if he believed Dr. Briggs a liar he would vote to sus- tain the appeal. Te believed Dr. Briggs to be an honest, truthful man. WM. 'P, JEWETT. Mr. Jewett, elder from St. Paul, snid that he would raise but one point. If they doubted the inerrancy of the Bible where would they de- cide errancy to begin and inerrancy to leave off. He considered that the presbytery had erred as to the third charge. The fifth charge, he con- sidered, should be sustained. REY. JOHN ¢. TAYLOR. Rey. John C. Taylor of Kansas City said be recognized the difficulties with which the pres- bytery of New York had to contend. He said he had not found any statement’in abatement of Dr. Briggs’ utterances regarding the errancy of the Bible, and, as he understood Christ's words, he could only sustain the ap; He analyzed number of statements in the inaugural. He said the Presbyterian Church\had not legislated much for their brethren after death. He did not believe they would,either, by approving Dr. 3° views. REY. ROLLIN BR. MARQUIS. Rey. Mr. Marquis of Kansas City presbytery, synod of Missouri, ssid that as well as regard- ing the past they must look toward the future. When the presbytery of New York bad acquitted Dr. Briggs but refused to accept his views they either disobeyed the mandate of the as- sembly or else set forward his views as properly entertained within the confines of the church. Charity suffers long and is kind, but there is a point beyond which toleration must not be ex- pected to go. The Presbyterian Church is not intolerant. ee against it, The question ie not whether Briggs can be countenancod, but whether his views come within the limits of a tolerant ELDER JOHN D. ABBY. Elder John D. Abby of Ozark presbytery, ‘Where Well-Known People Will Spend the Summer—Personal Notes. synod of Missouri, thought they had lost sight | Ycir, of the case. Had the presbytery of New York tried the case on its merite? Neither the world nor the church could tell what the had decided. to express They wanted to know whether they obliged to carry around a pocket edition of s Bible, edited according to the ciem, in order to know what the Bible is. That was what they would tell the church to do if they refused to sustain this appeal. DR. JAMES H. BROOKS. Dr. Brooks of St. Louis said that it was not Dr. Briggs who was on trial, but the Bible. “The question is whether we have Bible that is worth having. It goes far beyond Dr. Briggs and must not be decided on sympathy. He may be all that a gent @ Christian should be, and yet if we acquit him wego be- fore the world in the guise of men who believe ina Bible that we do not consider worthy of evidence. To suy that the Bible in its original form may have had mistakes is like » man who does not believe in a Savior because he never saw him. There is not a verse from Genesis to Revelations that does not preach the inerrant, infallible and verbal inspiration of ry part of the book. If Dr. Briggs can point to one hundred and twenty-four scholars who doubt {he tnern ey of the Bible Ican point to ten 1e8— Rap went the hammer of the moderator, for Dr. Brooks’ time was up. REY. DR. XICCOLLS. Rev. Dr. 8. J. Niccolls of St. Louis, who pre- sented the minority report on the question of entertaining the appeal, said he was anxious for & verdict that would set forth true doctrine, re- move misapprehension and at the same time be in accurdance with Christian tolerance. He hastily dissected the alleged errors of the pres- bytery. As to the fifth ground alleging ‘mis- take in the verdict he said he could vote to sus- tain it. He believed the verdict should be modified in some particulars in order to re- buke the dangerous teachings, but if their vote to sustain the uppeal_was to declare that here- after all who entertained such views were guilty of heresy he would be sorry for it. Such a ver- dict instead of giving peace, he said, would continue the disturbance in ‘the church. It would be regarded by thousands in the church ns # victory of intolerance and not n wise solution of the question, In his judgment Dr. [riggs attributed an authority and an efficacy to reason which are denied by the Scriptures and their stand- ard. For these reasons he was in favor of sus- taining the appeal so as to modify the verdiet. It would be a fatal mistake of the assembly to take their rejection a test of crthodoxy. Dr. Niccolls was cut off by the gavel before he could finish his argument. DR. W. W. HARSHA, Dr. Harsha of the synod of Nebraska said that when he came to the assembly he was fatisfied that there were dangerous things ‘taught in Dr. Briggs’ inaugural and that these dangers were the ones that were troubling the church. His mind was not then made up on the point of the heresy of the accused. He sympathized with the defendant, but realizing that Dr. Briggs had not retracted a single one of the views expressed in the inangural his head must get the better of his heart aud he must vote against the defendant. Dr. Harsha went on to consider matters in the inaugnral in some detail. Dr. Briggs had explained bis use of the word “source” in his dress as meaning channel, but any one famil- iar with English knew the words could not be synonymous. As to the doctrine of sanctifica- tion, it was largely a matter of conjecture and opinion, but it a dangerous fieid to open up, because it might result in a postponement on the part of many of a consideration of their souls’ welfare. Dr. Harsha was in the midst of speaking when he was called down at the end of his short three minutes. TAKING A RECESS. It was then 12:30 and a motion to take a re- cess until 2:30 o'clock was carried. The assembly had not at that hour got through with half the roll, and it seemed prob- able that unless the rule was changed the whole afternoon would be taken up with the three- minute specches of members, Work of the Lobby. Some members of the “lobby” in the assem- bly today are diligently circulating a petition asking the board of education to appoint Rev. W. H. Roberts, D.D., stated clerk of the assembly, to succeed Rev. Dr. Poor as tho secretary of that board. ‘This movement, at this time, is ded as injudicions, since Dr. Roberts, though # man of ability and experience, is considered to be quite partisan in his views upon the Briggs case and questions relating to the Union Theological Seminary, and his appoint- ment would, it is urged. inevitably intensify party spirit, and disturb the peace and work of the church.’ It is safer and better, say the con- servatives, to let the board select its own sec- retary in its own way and according to its own judgment, a A SENSATION CAUSED By the Changes Made in the Corps of Detectives, A censation was caused at police hendquarters this afternoon when it was learned of the changes that had beon made in the detective corps.

The following were the temperatures at the office of the weather burean today: 8 a.m., 64; 2 p.m., 76; maximum, 78; minimum, 59. Pure air and good digestion. Nothing does more for health. The first is easily got; the second can be had always. Use of Johann Hoff's Malt Extract gives it. “Jo- hann Hoff's” will help keep it. Make food soluble, you make it easy to digest. That is what “Johann Hoff's” does; is a tonic, too. The nutritive element of the malt makes it so. One dozen bot- tles of the genuine Johann Hoff's Malt Extract are equal to a cask of ale or porter in tonie and nutritive properties without being intoxicat- ing. It is therefore highly recom- mended for use during the summer months. See that “JOHANN HOFF'S” signature is on neck label of bottle. None other is genuine.
