ALVINISM AT THE CAPITAL igh Govertiment Officials Who Are Wor- shippers in that Faith. 18 A PRESBYTE‘RIAN ADMINISTRATION ero the President and Members of His Oabinet Attend Divine Serviee -Com- Ing Meeting of the Presbyterian General Assembly. Wasnivaton, D. C,, May 13.—[Special to Bene Bee.| During the late presidential Bampaign many pleasantries were published loncerning the religious beliefs held by the heveral candidates for the highest offices, nd it was said that whichever candidate Jras successful it would be a Presbyterian idministration. While that was true, it is fiardly possible that there would have been bomany Presbyterians inthe cabinet had bither of the other parties won. Mr, Cleve- and is a Presbyterian by birth, training and narriage, if not by profession, for his ather was o Presbyterian minister, a rother is a pastor of a Presbyterian church, s sister has been a foreign missionary and Mrs. Cleveland is also a member of that de- omination. In addition to that Vice Presi- lent Stevenson and his family worship at the New York Avenue church, as do also he secretary of war and his wife. Mrs. amont is a member of the Presbyterian Mohurch, her husand 1s not, but his usual quiet remark is, “My uncle was a deaconwin a Presbyterian church, so I go there.” Tho secretary of state ana .Mrs. Greshom, and the sectary of the interior and his family at- tend the New York Avenue church. The postmaster general, secretary of agriculture and the secretary of the navy, with their families, go to the Episcopal church, and Secretary Carlisle's family attends the Methodist church. This arrangement gives the Presbyterians the president, the vice resident and three members of the cabinet, n addition to several members of the jud! clary and a number of senators and repre- sentatives, Whero Harrlson Worshiped. President Harrison worshiped in the Church of the Covenant, also Presbyterian, and Dr. Hamlin was known for four years ) much to his annoyance, the presid s astor. During the present administration Dr, Sunderland of the First church enjoys that honor, if it be one. Buvis said that it is not an honor coveted by the Washington pastors—least of all by the outspoken pastor of the IMirst church, who has recently cele- brated his fortieth munwmu'v It is said that Dr. Sunderland strongly opposed to Mr. Cleveland’s first_elcotion, ‘and after the inauguration, he objected to having his c¢hyreh known as the presilent's church under a democratic administration, His be- coming the president’s pastor was due to Mr. Cleveland’s sisters rememberiug that their mother had a pastor in Batavia, named Sutherland, and they desired to go to his church Washington. The plucky parson who had p; ed abolition from his pulpit at the risk of his life, said that he would not take back a word, but he not only became the pastor of the administration, but married the present occupants of the white house. It is eminently fitting, therefore, that the general assembly of the Presbyterian church should meot in Washington this year, and r eparations for their coming have been o with a lavishness seldom equalled, and a kmnm\ at the several committees will show the character of the men who are to assist in welcoming the followers of Calvin to the Capital city. The finance committee is per- haps the most important, for without money hospitality is hampered. John W. Thompson is chairman of this committee and has with him such men as John W. Foster, ex-se tary of state; Senator Calvin S. Brice, Calonel George I, Lemon, Colonel John Ha President Lincoln's ~ biographer; R. H. - Warner, Willlam B. Gurley, James L. Nor- ris, William Ballantyne, Charles E. Foster, James E. Fitch, William Thompson, H. H. Waolls, Captain B. W. Cuyler and Frederick Pilling. Chairmen of the Committees. The chairmen of the several commitsees are as follows: Finance, John W.Thomp- son; reception, Justice 'William Strong; social entertainment, Rev. Dr. Byron Sun- derland; hospitality, Sardis L. Crissey; ex- curs\onn, Rev. Dr. Teunis Hamlin; mfor- muuon, Rev. Charles B. Ramsdell; music, Rov. T. . Wynkoop: meotings and’assem’ blies, Rev. W. S. Miller; pulpits, Rev. I Ulnlng(‘r, prup.uunml of tho church, trus tees of the New York Avenue church; trans- portation, Rev. Dr. Willi H. Roberts, stated clerk of the general as Vi press and printing, Beria Wilkins of the Washing- ton Post; ushers and as: ants, Philip I, Larner; executive, Rev. Dr. William_ A. Bartlett; with Dr. Bartlett areJ. R. Van Mater, secretary; Governor H. Wells, Charles ll y, Sardis L. Crissey, Wil- and John D. McChesney. will open on Thursday morn- 1ng of next week, with a sermon by the re- tiring moderator, Dr. William C. Young, sresident of Center college, Danville, Ky n the afternoon the election of moderator will tako place; in the evening the commun- fon will be observed, and on FKriday the special committees, of which there are fifteon, will begin to report. There are many topics under the head of routine busi- mness to come before the assembly, such as the work of the eight boards of the church, which have received and expended during the year betweer $4,000,000 and §5,000,000 in “ae way of ben in addition to the auch larger sum c ntributed by the church or congragational expenses. An Important Mattor, In addition to this work, which, in itself, would occupy the time allotted for the assembly, the great question of revising the confession of faith is to come before the body for final consideration probub For two or three years the revision question has wheen uppermost, but after an able committee had spent two years of patient work, using all the light shed upon the subject by moro thun 200 presbyteries, it has sent down a report to the prosbyteries which meets the { neither the revisionistg nor the nists. The result is Yoo e servative for the first class, and too liberal for the second, Of 1060 presbyteries Whose action on the revision question has beon noted, twenty-four have failed to take action, thirty-four approved the entire report, fifty-one disapproved the entire report, sixty approve in part and sixty-six desire o new creed. This leaves the revision o failure, for under the new rules two-thirds must approve a change in the constitution of the church, and as more than one-third huve failed to express ap- roval, the work of two years h partly hrown away. The questlon now arises, shall o new creed be prepared ! The subject, however, which transcends all others this year is the appeal from the . New York presbytery, or rather from tho osecuting committés of the presby he case of Prof. Briggs of Uniou semin who has b on trial for he or- two years. Dr. Parkhurst of New A Yecent sermon protested against the present attitude of the Presbyterian church, as woiced in the last two general assewblies, on the ground that it has crowded out of “gight and out of right “the one evangelical b, Aruth that can mako either this church or any other church a redemptive power in the world, and that it is spending in theologleal spoculation and in matters of ecclesiastical E:Hl.hl Lime and power that are designed of od to bo spent in converting the heathen lt home and abroad.” Efforts for Harmony. [+ - During the year an effort has been made by the liberals w secure peace, but the con- servatives say that there can be no peace while a disturblng element insists upon its |particular views being taught in the semi- Qx:flm wud preached in the pulpits; that the ‘church at large and not the New York pres- Lwry alone must decide what the church leves, Some 200 ministors in various Ls of the country have signed what has g:-bllludl “Plea for Peace and Work,"” and a clreular has also been sent out by A. , I, Randolph of New York, for the laymen sign, calliug upon the coming assembly to :phln what the last a; lemblf meunt when b adopted the now famous deliverance of in- errancy, which was adopted alm if not quite, unanimously ou the last day of the here has boon an attempt Lo combine the Briges case and the assembly deliverance, the liberals declaring that at the meeting in Portland & new dogma had been issued, while the conservatives assort as vlwflrmnlv that it was simply a statement of what the church has always held. 1t must be ad- mitted, however, that had the question of Dr. Briggs's orthodoxy not come before the church, the necessity for the deliverance at this time would scarcely have been felt so 1y by those wh hm.nul its adoption The conservatives say that if the liberals are so much disturbed by the fear of a split in the church, their fears can be allayed by Dr. Briggs' resignation being ac the directors of Union seminal but Briggs and his friends say that they are not fighting for themselves, but for freedom in the church, for liberty for those who are oppressed by the present ultra-con- servative views taught and held in certain quariers; that if it were one man who was at stake, they could afford to yield rather than force the issue, but, under the circumstances, it is better to go down with fl flying. After the trial in New York, Dr. Edward L. Clark, a member of the pres- bytery, a leading pastor and director of Union seminary, resigned his pastorate be- cause he could not hold the views which seemed essentinl for a man owning allegiance to the general assembly. An effort was made to retain-him in the presbytery, but he was firm in his determination to withdraw, oand he accepted a call to a leading L‘um{rr‘- gational church in Boston. Election of Moderator. The Briggs case will come before the as- sembly indirectly on the opening day, when an effort will be made to secure for moder- ator a minister friendly to the professor, for the moderator appoints all the standing committees. Should the liberal candidate fail to secure the election, he will by courtesy be placed at the head of the judiciary com- mittee, in the coming assembly the most im- chairman appointed. The appeal from New York will then be referred to the judicial committee, which will report that it be entertained or not l‘nlcrlnlnm‘. If it be not entertained, that will settic the matter. and Dr. Briggs, who is now acquitted by the New York presbytery, will pe adjudged or- thodox. If, however, the assembly enter- tains the appeal, the question will arise whether it shall be sustained and judgment taken or whether it shall be remanded to the synod of New York for action, Among the candidates for moderator are Prof. Craig of Chicago, Prof. Roberts of Cincinnati, Dr. Baker and Dr. Di v, both of Philadelphia. It is thought by maay that Dr. Roberts will be elected, as his !rlmlds are sorely displeased with the action of the Lane seminary directors, who have removed him from his office and kept in the seminary Dr. Henry P. Smith, whose lrml for heresy was going on in Cincinnati lust mu when Dr. Briggs was on the rack in New York, Nota few of the presbyteries have structed their delegates how to vote on th Briges case. In the Baltimore presbyte for instance, a resolution was presented re- questing the general y to take final on in v.lm matter. ack to the New York on the table, although clorgymen who seconded the resolution said the fuct that the presbytery had elected Dr. Joseph . Smith and Dr. J. P. Leftwich, as missioners to the assembly was a_gu that the presbytery would be represented by two men who would substantially support the prineiple of the tabled resolution, as they are strictly orthodox and wish the Briggs case settled once and for all, and not to be sent back to the synod, only to return on an appeal next year. Of Different Views. Soveral leading presbyteries, on the other hand. have instructed their commissioner to vote to have the case remanded. Sevi presbyteries have overtured the assemb decline to entertain any appeals in judic cases made directly from the presbytery or by & prosecuting committee; the assembly if necessary, directing the persons making such appeal to have ruoul‘\u for relief to their right of complaint to the synod. It is expected that if a sufticient nu |hrr of over- tures of this cha coming assembly that it will b rect effect, at least, upon the action in the present issue. —————— SOUGHT A BURIED FORTUNE, Detectives Arrost Two Men Who Have a Queer Btory to Tell. Detectives Hayes and Hudson added an- other good job to the record of the Omaha polico department yesterday. The two ofticers were walking up Tenth streot yoster- day forenoon, when they encountered two men whose appearance marked them as good men to watch, They carried a number of tools wrapped in paper, which were found to consist of a spade, a common iron rod and a mineral rod. When interrogated they claimed that th were going to visit a grove mear Cut-Off lake where they had been told a man was buried together with a considerale fortune which had been placed av the foot of his cofiin. The officers had an idea that they might be bodysnatchers and took them to the police station, where they gave names as Albert A. Ste The first mentionea claimed to stop at the Wirth hotel. His trunks and belongings were also hauled to police headquarters from there ana the contents examined. The first thing found was a Magic money maker, with directions on_the ivside of the box which inclosed it how to turn out good greenbacks. Compromising Correspondence. A letter from Beauclere, Fla.. dated January 21, 1892, and addressed to Steward, was found with a price list for con- federate Dbills enclosed. giving prices at which 10,000 lu( could be furnished at §1 per 1,000 hy F. C. Sawyer. Transcripts of documents from the United States district court of Nebraska showed that Steward had, in 1890 and 181, come in contact with Uncle Sam’ s officers, His name was slated D. Stewart, alias £. M. Holm alias G. G. Learing. From these it was further gleaned that several indictments had been found against him, one for mailing ‘“‘nonmailable” matter and another for receiving letters ad- dressed o fictitious names. On the first charge he was convicted by Judge Dundy, who assessed a fine of $50 and costs against him, He was also convicted to pay a fine on the second charge. Aside from these he served twenty-four days in jail upon another conviction. In a journal, upon the cover of which mum) J. Kauffman, Yate Center, the Kan- od, were found a lov of Confeder- ipt, as well asadvertising A list of questions to be propounded to T. J. Mahoney, M. . Gonnon, John C. Cowin, Lee Estelle, E. R. Duffe J. P. Breen, Judge Ambrose and other prominent attorneys of Omaha, in relation to a case in United States court, was also in the trunk. Another dooument showed that Steward, while on the eve of closing a $3,500 real es- tate deal in Grand Island, was arrested by oficers for violation of the postal laws and that he pleaded guilty and received a twenty-four day sentence. A o hllls .Alltl matter, Owned Up to Selling Green Goods, When seen by a Bee reporter Steward ad- mitted that he had advertised at one time us having had green goods for sale, which had brought him in conflict with the federal authorities, but he denied ever having had any such goods in_his pos- session. Asked what he gainea by these advertisements he said, *“Well if they were answered and good bills were enclosed I would have that much mone; He claims to have lived here since last December, and said that he was o real estate dealer, coming here from Gran Island, to which place he came frou ate Center, Kan, Of the workings of the apparatus for manufac- turing greenbacks he disclaimed all knowl- edge, saying that he had bought it because it was advertised.

Beginning this morning the Salvation army will inaugurate a series of meetings which are expected 1o eclipso all previous efforts made by it in this city. Itis preparatory to the summer's cam- paign and promises to be exceedingly inter- esting.

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon and at 8 o'cloek this evening, addresses will be made by the same speaker, that of the afternoon be- ing devoted to a resume of the speaker's life and that in the evening to a consideration of the subject: “From the Greek Church to the Salvatlon Army." “Joe the Turk,” whose proper name nn«l title is Captain J. Garabed, is one of the most unique and conspicuous characters which the work of the Salvation army has brought to the front. He is a man of about 85 years of age, of robust build, and speaks with a decided foreign accent. He was born m Turkey and his father was priest ~ in the Greek church. \thn he arrived at man's estate, he emi- grated to America, landing inSan Francisco, where after three years spent at the shoe- maker's trade, he joined the Salvation ars Ho has on several occasions been assaulted for his belief, having at one time had his back cut with a kaife, and at another his nose broken by a flying missile. Once. in Oregon, when ‘sentenced by the judge, for disturbing the peace, together with a number of other Salvationists, to fifteen days in jail, he shouted out “The Lord be praised,” and the judgo coolly added ten days more to his sentence for contempt. This period of imprisonment Joe alludes to as “twenty-five days in jail for Jesus.” Joo is a good cornetist, a fine singer and a fluent and interesting speaker in a humor- ous vein. He wears a Turkish costume at all his meotings and upon the s an _umbrella pamted in the army colors, red, blue and yellow, and inscribed with various religious quotation One of his favorite songs 18 *'Growl, Dev!

THE TRANSCONTINENTAL TRAIN. The Great ‘“Aultman-Taylor" Reaches Omaha, Last evening exactly on advertised schedule time the special train load of “Aultman-Taylor” threshers, engines, horse powers, saw mills, ete., consigned to F. L. Loomis of this city, having left Mansfield, O., over the Lake Erie & Western and Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroads, crossed the brldge and pulled into the union depot. The train consisted of thirty-six flat cars, hand- somely decorated with flags, bunting, etce., and with its load of bright and at- tractively painted machinery, had thousands of admirers along the route, This is the most valuable single ship- ment of machinery ever made, being valued at $117,500.00. The train was in charge of Mr, F. L. Loomis, western manager of The Ault- man & Taylor Machinery compar and Mr. C. A. Hunter, contracting freight agent of the Rock Island road, and was uccompanied by W. H. Stillwell, super- intendent, Harry Fox, assistant superin- tendent, and Dan Maloney traveling freight agent of the Rock Island. The trip was one continuous ovation, the entire run of nearly 1,000 miles be- ing made by daylight only, and stops made at all of the principal stations en route, One great attraction to the as- sembled crowds was the complete steam reshing outfit with self-feeder and nging stacker in opevation on the two rear cars. The train is now standing on the Union Pacific tracks under the Tenth street viaduct. and will doubtless be visited by hundreds today, Speclal e NEGROES AND LABOR UNIONS, OmaHA, May 13.—To the Editor of Tne Be In your issue of May 10, under the headline, *No Color Line is Drawn,” I am represented as having said that the colored men of the south, did not emigrate to the north because the labor organizations of the country discriminated against them. It will require no argument to prove that this state- ment Is a fact with which the public is familiar. Your reporter has presented seven interviews, six of which are from presidents of labor organizations, for the purpose of showing that my statement was not founded on facts. Inthe first place, the bare fact that very nearly all of the carpenter work, painting, plastering, blacksmithing, as well as the work in the railroad shops, unfon depots, electrio power houses, etc., s done by white men, is of f sufticient proof of the truthfuluess of my statement., Is it not a faot that 75 per cent of the negro population of the north and west are southerners! Everybody knows that. Isit not & fact that the same work in all of the large cities of the south is performed by the negro? Of this the southern white man makes his boast. Isit true that this is the most profitable labor in the north and west? We are all compelled to answer (n the afirm- ative. Then, why is it that this same pegro who flees frgm the south to rid himself from political op nlon refuses to engage in this me vmrk with which he is most familior sud for which be can earn from $3.00 to $ per day, and labors vu?n 50 and In many in- | stances'$1 per ud Your reporter would -vamapumrtw jodo that it is simply be- cnuso ho choosas to d6 so. It {a & hard mat. ter for him to convince an unprejudiced pub- L 1 that his position is eorrect. The lnwnh-ws'htmrwlvm help to estab- lish the corroctness ofmy statement. Mr. Morton, president of the Iron Molders union, says that the constitutlon of his union does not prohibit colored peaple from joining, but if an application should be made to it by a colored man, there might be some question raised as to whether they should admit him or not. Bold admission, indeed, is this. Why does he make this statement? Simply because ho knows that his society would not admit him, He is kit enough to say that the color of one's skl should not cut any figure. 1f it did not, in this particular fleld, why doos ho not say 80. Mr. Hopkins, prosident of the Machinists union, says: *'Yes, the colored man is ex- cluded from our order, the word ‘white’ ap- pearing in our constitution.” He has statea the fact as it is. And while the same word may not appear in many of the others, it had as well, judging from the results of their actions, You must remember that these are ‘oath- bound secret societies,” the law and doings of which are known only: by their members. While they have no written law that bars the negro, the fact of his not being n large part of their organizations, as well as the arge number of applications made by them, and_which have boen refused, say to the world that they have an unwritten law, the interpretation of which is: *‘No negro need apply.” In evidence of this fact we offer a few statements from gentlemen who have ap- plied. They speak for themselves: Mr. Henry Tyler is a first-class painter and a gentieman. He says, that he made applications to the ‘“painters junion.” His monoy and petition were kept for some time, after which they werereturned with noex- planation. Mr. Henry Holiday says that he was served the samo w Mr. Tyler says that he tried to join the brickmasons union, but was told by them that they had no time to consider his applica- tion and up to this morning they had not found time. Andyot Mr. Parker would have the people believe that there are no colored brickmasons in Omaha. Mr. John Bailey is an engineer. He made application to the Order of American Sta- tionary Steam Engineers, Mr. T. A. Murry, a white gentlemen who m{nml his applica- tion, says that he was refused because he was'a colored man. He (Murry) being pres- ent when the application came before the union knows whereof he speaks. Mr. Dave Gilbert, one of the leading en- gineers of this city, says that he has signed applications for colored men, but they have been refused because they were colored. Mr. Charles Harpster says the same thing. Mr. George Garl, a first-class painter and paper hanger, it :nother one who is barred for the same reason. Mr. Benton Bell acknowledges being guilty of recelving thirty black balis in the engineer union because ho was not o white wan in- stead of a_quadroon. These, Mr. Editor, aro_a of the many thoudfnds of my race who have been and are being deprived of a fair chance to earn an honest liviag by the sweat of their brows for themselves and families Iadmit that some of these organizations have colored members, but itis a fact that asarule white men will not work with them. They cannot secure employment on that account. The mgn who gives them work is ridiculed and in many instances made to suffer financial loss. 1t is not my purpose to creato hostility toward *‘organized labor.” No, be 1t far from All 1 ask for my race is that it be given a fair and equal chauce in every and all spheres of life, and enjoyment of right and privilege guaranteed to the ns of this grand and glorious republic that boasts of being “The land of the free and the home of the brave.” That I have the support not only of all truly pious men, but of every man who is an_honest Ameri- can, I am fully persuaded.
