LY CLERGYRAN WRITES OFCHINESE AT Battle Rages Nearby As He Pens Letter Home Yeung Kong, South China, March 15.—(By Mall.)-—~A graphic story of | the fighting between the Chinese forces now ravaging south China is glven by Rev, Robert J. Cairns, one of the American missionaries attach- ed to the Maryknoll Catholic misgion here, “As 1 write,” he sald, “the soldlers are not more than a hundrediaway firlrg at others on the hills. The Yeung Kong wall adjoins our prop- orty, so we are pretty close, in fact we must keep under cover, for the stray bullets will catch us If we don’t watch out, “Wednesday morning We saw a long line of men walking single file along the brow of the hill opposite us; with the help of field glasses, I noted that they were armed and were head- | 91¢ toward Yeurig Kong. Then there was great excitement at the north! gate of the city. | “The city is surrounded by a five foot brick wall with openings about one foot wide and two feet deep for | the soldiers to shoot through. In the! front of the wall a sheer descent of | about 20 feet makes It difficult’ of | access; besides there is a moat to be crossed. “The excitement at the north gate was caused by the Yeung Kong sol- diers who began firing upon the men on the hill who were, it is sald, about 300 in number. The besiegers hid be- hind she hill and returned the fire, but our soldiers were protected by the wall so very few were hit. A few of their American cartridges left thelr| impression on the bricks of our house. | “Thursday morning the firing began | in earnest because daylight found the | enemy approaching the hill overlook- ing the north gate and some of them | gained it by noon. The firing increas- | ed as the invaders neared the city and the defenders put into action a| cannon and a rapld fire gun, “The mandarin, we are told, offer- ‘ed his men $400 if they drove the besiegers from that vantage ground, | for they could fire down into the heart of the city from that position. | ““We learned from the refugees that our defenders had fled and the reason given was ‘ammunition all used.' Scdn afterward 300 entered the city. ‘To the victor belongs the spoils’ here means looting. “The sisters were not in danger as their new convent is a formidable building. Besides the stars and stripes ‘were floating in the breeze so that the robbers decided to pass by."” MAY BE “KING BEN" Man Arrested in Marysville, Michigan, Is Believed to Be Head of the House of David Colony. ‘WMarysville, O., April 30.—Michigan authorities are expected here today to attempt identification of a man believed by Sheriff Charles Collier to ve “king" Benjamin Purnell, leader of .the House .of David of Benton Harbor, Mich.

MORE TOLERANGE IS NEED OF BAPTISTS Prominent Preacher Defends Be- liefs of Others | New York, April 30.—The Rev. Dr. Cornelius Wolfkin, pastor of the wealthy Park avenue Baptist church, |often called the “Rockefeller church,” |aroused considerable discussion among | his parishioners today as a result of a | sermon in which he criticized long |standing Baptist doctrines as reac- tionary and urged his congregation to vote to abandon them. He defended the stage, and had a good word for Sir Oliver Lodge, Sir C‘onan Doyle and Christlan Science, “Our practice of excluding members |of other denominations unless they |are baptized again in our rite is out |of harmony with the spirit that is growing in the churches,” he said. “Do you suppose that in heaven when communion is celebrated that | John Calvin, John Knox, John and Charles Wesley and other great lead- ersin the non-Baptist world will be denfed the privilege Baptists?”’ he asked. “We need a greater tolerance for the various sects, isms and fads that are springing up about the fringes of the older churches. I do not regard them as heretical. They are the re- sult of spiritual urge on the part of people who are seeking what they think tl.2 church can not furnish them. “Sir Oliver Lodge is one of the out- standing physicists of his generation and he is trying sincerely and ear- nestly to lift the wveil, So also is Conan Doyle, eminent and high mind- |ed man. The healing movements, | Christian Science and the others are | practicing a lost function of the| of sitting with | church which the church should re- gain."” CALL STRIKE BREAKERS | San Francisco Marine Owners Take First Definite Step Today Toward Ending Labor Trouble, San Francisco, April 30.—The first definite move to break.the strike of Pacific coast marine workers called by the I, W.
