GREAT INTEREST IN THE PROCEEDINGS Report of Committee to Investigate Dr. Baugher’s Case. CALL ON THE PRESIDENT The second day’s meeting of the Evan- gelical Lutheran synod of Maryland, now in seventy-seventh annual convention at the Church of the Reformation, on B street and Pennsylvania avenue southeast, began this morning at 9:30 o'clock. The pro- ceedings were looked forward to with great interest not only by the delegates them- selves, but by the members of the Lutheran Church at large in this vicinity, because it had been heralded that action would be taken in the case of Rev. Dr. H. L. Baugher, president of the Gettysburg Rev. A. F. Richardson. Theological Seminary. The interest was also heightened by the publication this morning that the “radical” element in the synod had yesterday elected Dr. J. G. But- ler of this city president of the synod, and had thus shown it was in control, and would proceed to make many changes in the existing condition of affairs in the synod. It developed this morning, however, that when Dr. Butler was elected yesterday there was no organization among the con- servative element, and today careful in- quiry developed that a real test vote on any vital question brought before the synod would result in a victory for the con- servatives by a small majority. It was stated that the case of Rev. Dr. Baugher, president of the Gettysburg Theo- logical Seminary, against whom charges, the character of which has not been made public, are pending, the disposition of which was expected to cause a very animated controversy in the synod, would not bring out the real test of strength between the two elements in the synod, but would serve to indicate their relative powers in the body. At the last year’s meeting of the synod a special committee, consisting of Rev. Dr. W. E. Parsons and Rev. Dr. S. Domer of this city and Rev. O. C. Roth of Balti- more, was appointed to investigate the charges against Dr. Baugher. This com- mittee is ready to report and will probably do so late this afternoon. The meeting took a recess at 1 o'clock, and the delegates after luncheon went in a body to the White House and paid their respects to President McKinley. Receipts and Expenditures. The annual report of the treasurer show- ed receipts as follows: Synodical fund, $007.78; beneficiary education, $2,019.S beard of education, $1,138.01; home mis- sions, $1,666.18; foreign missions, $3,723.00; trustees Orphans’ Home, $1,549.09; pastors’ fund, $1,032.98; deaconess fund, $570.43; Home of Aged, $559.29; loan, $637.86; re- turned by former theological students, $924; church extensicn, $3,285.43. Total, $21,015.47. The expenditures were as follows: Ex- penses of synod, $523.44; general synod, 3609; beneficiary education, $2,192.92; con- tingent fund of Gettysburg Theological Seminary, $450; board of education, $1,138.91; home missions, $4,666.18; church extension, $3,285.4: foreign missions, $3,723.60; trustees Orphans’ Home, $1,549.00; pastors’ fund, $1,032.98; Deaconess Home, $570.43; Home for Aged, $559.39; loan re- turned, $705. Total, $21,015.47. In submitting his report, which was re- ferred to the auditing committee, Treasurer James stated that the receipts over last year had increased by more than $1,200, ard that a singular development during the year was that while the contributions from the big city churches had fallen off those frcm the country churches had sub- stantially increased. After the treasurer had concluded gen- eral business was considered. The report of the apporticnment committee was post- poned for consideration, at the request of Chairman Miller. A long discussion was indulged in over the Lutheran publication house, but no definite action was taken. High Tributes to Deaconesses. Dr. Dunbar, in reporting on the Deacon- ess Home, paid a very high compliment to the deaconesses. He favored the adop- tion of a system by which a deaconess could be secured by a parish for parish work, the expense to be borne by churches asking the service. Their pay should be at the rate of $150 per annum, with transpor- tation to and from their field of duty and their living expenses while there. The deaconesses were to do parish work, call- ing on the needy, visiting and caring for the sick and doing general parish work. Dr. Butler desired to know if the dea- conesses could be utilized for trained nurses by the congregations employing them. Dr. Dunbar said it was not intended to sublet the deaconesses in such a capac- ity, but there would be no objection to accepting for the mother house any sums of money that might be tendered to the deaconesses by grateful patients. ‘The suggestion led to a very interesting interchange of views on the general sub- ject of deaconesses. Rey. Dr. A. H. Studebaker contributed valuable information showing how greatly encouraged the church should be by the splendid work being done by the deacon- esses, and paid a high tribute to their char- acters and the excellent class of intelligent young wormcn who were entering the church's service as deaconesses. A general desire was expressed to further the efforts in behalf of the development of the work of these women. An invitation was extended to delegates to visit the Dea- Home, at Winthrop Heights, by Dr. W. E. Parsons, who also paid high tribute to the Home for the Aged, and the excellent work it was doing in caring for the old and infirm members of the Lutheran Church. Meet Next Year at Taneytown. At the conclusion of Dr. Parson’s inter- esting discourse, President Butler stated that it was approaching recess time, where- upon Rev. D. F. Garland of Trinity Church, Taneytown, Md., extended an invitation to the synod to meet there next year. The invitation was unanimously accepted, and the third Thursday in October next was LOPOSSSSOROSSOEOG EGOS GOOG: Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is 3 GOOD for all diseases that al sf sen a Dave their BETTER a Reg! rillas, better OOOO SS OHH OO SHO HTHO ED ik iH i ! it nites i 4 EXPLANATORY NOTE: Observations taken at 8 a.m., 75th meridian time.

It was also decided to close the fiscal year of the synod on the Tuesday after the first Sunday in October. At 1 o'clock recess was taken and lunch- eon served in the Sunday school room by the ladies of the church. The delegates, in a-body, then went to the White House, where President McKinley received them. The case of Dr. Baugher, it is expected, will be discussed and final action taken tonight. During the meeting today the application for ordination as a minister by Max Her- ing, a licentlate, recently dismissed from the synod of Waterbury, Ill., was received and referred to a committee consisting of Rev. Drs. S. Domer and G. H. Beckley and Rey. I. C. Burke. Aid to Students. When the synod was called to order by President Butler the discussion, which was commenced yesterday, on the proposition submitted to amend the report of the com- mittee on education, providing that the free students in the Gettysburg Theological Seminary should be obligated to repay one- third of the money expended on their edu- cation by making the time five years in- stead of “a reasonable time” after their graduation and the commencement of their ministerial duties, was continued. An amendment to the amendment was offered extending the time for such repayment to ten years. The question led to a general discussion of the entire subject of beneficiary educa- ticn. Mr. Baird, who favored the ten-year proposition, made an eloquent plea for More generous treatment of theological students. There was formerly a demand for young men to go out among the people and preach the Gospel. There are still waste places to be reclaimed, he said, but the cry for ministers to reclaim them does not go up any more. Where ministers were opposed to beneficiary education their con- gregations followed them, but where min- isters were eager in favor of it, the people in their charge were ready and generous to arswer requests for assistance in its behalf. Dr. Valentine's Views. Rev. Dr. M. Valentine of Gettysburg op- posed propositions of all sorts looking to the return of money by students after they were graduated and were preaching the gospel. ‘The obligation whether extending over five or ten years acted as a repression on the energies of the young ministers. Few ministers in the church received sal- aries sufficient now to meet the necessi- ties of economic living, and no obligation should be added to the already burden- some character of their responsibilities. The whole thing would result, he de- clared, in embarrassing ministers and would minimize their power for good work by keeping them under the burden of al- ways looking out to see how they could meet the obligation resting upon them. In concluding his impressive argument, which was closely listened to, Dr. Valentine said: The education of ministers should be paid for. and the losses, if any, borne by the church. The balance sheet when struck would show profits in favor of God’s work, no matter what the material loss might be. A Personal Experience. Rey. Mr. Breswanger of Baltimore, a young minister who had passed through the seminary, gave a description of his own experience, and declared that the first thirg necessary to do regarding beneficiary education was to ascertain the really worthy young men who were receiving it and confine the expenditure to them. It was easy to separate the real from the false, and this, he thought, should be done. The discussion was continued at great lergth, and many other emphatic opin- jons on beneficiary education were ex- pressed, the trend of which was that more rigid care should be taken by the synod in the future in considering and meeting the requirements of the subject. A very valuable contribution to this interchange of views was given by Rey. L. Kuhlman of Frederick, who contrasted the system of pereficiary education followed by the Lutheran Church with that pursued by the Episcopal Church. He heartily favored obligating students to return a third of the money expended ‘on fitting them for the ministry within a Specified time. The Amendments Defented. ‘A vote was taken on the amendment ex- tending the time of payment to ten years, and it was defeated by a rising vote. The amendrent to make the time five years was also lost. The original report of the committee, providing that students should make re- payment within a reasonable time, was also overwhelmingly defeated by a vote of 18 yeas to 8) nays. The report of the com- mittee on education was then adopted. The annual report of the treasurer, Mr. W..H. James of Baltimore, was presented, Dr. Butler Chosen President. After the close of the report of yester- day's proceedings of the synod as printed in The Star of last evening. Rev. Dr. J. G. Butler, pastor of Luther Memorial Church in this city, was elected president for the ensuil year. Rev. Victor Miiler of Leit- exobure, Md., and Mr. W. H. James of Bal- timore were re-elected secretary and treas- urer, respectively. ‘The roll of lay delegates as prepared by the secretary—the names of the ministerial delegates having been already printed in The Star—is as follows: Arora, William Will; Baltimore, Church, Henry M.

Trump, stated that during the past year there had been an increase in the membership and ‘efficiency of the church, so that it is now better able to perform the great work it has‘undertaken than at any time during its history. There were no deaths of members since the adjournment of the last annual convention, and but two resignations, those of Rev. C. E. Ide, pas- tor at Fulton, and Rev. A. H. Burke, at Doubs. There are no vacant churches at this time. President Trump recommended the amendment of the constitution, so that it would provide that ad interim licenses only be granted to those who wish to labor within the jurisdiction of the Maryland synod, but so as not to prevent the labors within the same jurisdiction of men licens- ed by sister synods. The report also suggested the appoint- ment of a synodical superintendent, or visiting secretary, for the term of three years, whose duty it shall be to visit con- gregations, encourage the organization of missions, adjust church difficulties, install pastors, supply vacant congregations, at- tend conferences, and render a report to each meeting of the synod. If this plan should not be deemed satisfactory, it was recommended that the president of the sy- nod be elected for two years. The retiring President also urged the synod to place it~ Self on record in favor of temperance. Educational Matters, Rev. Dr. Butler, chairman of the com- mittee on education, sumbitted a report, which contained, among other matters, the suggestion that N. L. J. Groon, a former student at Gettysburg Theological Seminary, be commended for returning to the synod the sum,of $774 advanced to kim by the synod for the purpose of getting his education, Mr. Groon having abandon- ed his intention of entering the ministry after he had taken the theological course. This portion of the report excited much discussion, and was finally stricken out. Rev. Dr. Parson announced that Presi- dent McKinley had consented to receive the members of the synod this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, and in view of this tt was voted that the morning session of today shall be extended until p.m. The session of the evening was devoted to the celebration of the synodical com- munion, in which only the members of the synod participated. The sermon on the oc- casion was delivered by Rev. C, S. ‘Trump. ——.__- Property Conveyed. The deed was filed this afternoon by which the National Bank of the Republic conveyed to the Lincoln National Bank the property at the southwest corner of 7th and D streets.

Mrs. Columbus Wields a Rawhide on Miss Kelly’s Shoulders. Mrs. Lizzie Columbus, who lives on 12th street northwest between E and F streets, and Miss Mary Kelly figured in an exciting street episode near the corner of 12th and F streets northwest about 7:30 o’clock last night. Pedestrians were attracted to them by the screams of Miss Kelly, upon whose shoulders Mrs, Columbus was using what appeared to be a rawhide. The row was of short duration, for bystanders separ- ated them and started each in a different direction. Miss Kelly said this morning that the a! fair was only one of a number of unpleas- ant affairs in which she had figured, and it was the result of jealousy. This morning Miss Kelly called at police headquarters and stated her complaint to Detective Weedon. She says she will get a warrant for Mrs. Columbus and have their troubles ventilated in court. gees WENT OUT SMILING. Colored Boys, Convicted of Theft, Told to Go Home.
