Arrangements for the conference have been practically completed. What still remains to be done, however, was discussed in the morning at the Ebbitt House by Dr. Bartlett, Dr. Roberts and the ruling elders of the New | York Avenue Presbyterian church. There | are several important matters to be con- sidered, such as the evenings that are to be | devoted to the various special purposes, home missions, foreign missions, church erection, temperance, Sunday school work and affairs of that sort. It is customary for each of the special objects to claim a certain evening for its meeting during the course of the assembly, and it is not likely that the committee will make any marked departures from the established rule. Everybody Cannot Attend. Inasmuch as the general public will be admitted only to the galleries, it will be impossible for a very large number of out- siders to attend the sessions of the confer- ence. The entire main floor of the audi- torium is to be reserved for the delegates. | Opportunity will be given the public to hear and see the notable men during the evenings, when popular meetings will be i held. Three subjects will engross the attention of the assembly. These are the report of | the committee on seminaries, the appeal of the committee which unsuccessfully prosecuted Professor Briggs from the ac- tion of the New York presbytery and the revision of the confession of faith. A par- tial poll has been made of the ministers of the church, from the results of which it is the belief of many that the question of revision will be relegated to the back- ground for the present, and that therefore the Briggs case will be the most important and interesting topic of consideration. This inently will be watched everywhere. ter case has been brought so prom- before the public that the outcome with intense interest 2 Souther: its Adjourn. NASHVILL The Southern Bap- tist convention has adjourned sine die. Before adjournment Dr. Boatwright pre- sented a report that the convention’s mis- sionaries in north China had withdrawn from the foreign mission board’s support and started on a new enterprise for them- selves. This report threw the convention into much disorder and a lengthy discus- sion followed. Dr. Ford of Missouri ex- pressed opposition to the board, saying he could not understand how the board sitting at Richmond could dictate the manner of work to missionaries who had spent the greater part of their life in the work. Dr. H. H. Harris, president of the board, said there had been too much publicity. It was only a difference of opinion. The board had not been tyrannical nor overreached its prerogative. Dr. A. E. Owen of Vir- ginia said the convention had appointed boards to manage its affairs, and if others did not agree in their actions all they could say was to depart in peace. Dr. A. C. Pack- ard of Louisville id the rupture had reached the churches and they were becom- ing separated. The matter should be settled. Colonel J. A. Hoyte offered a resolution instructing the board to not accede to the missionaries’ demands, and it adopted. IMMIGRATION SOUTHWARD. Some of the Difficulties Enumerated by Mr. H. C. Hilken. y . H. C, Hilken, | of A. Schumacher & Co., agents of the North German Lloyd Steamship company, speaking of the recommendation of the governors’ convention at Richmond in re- lation to the best methods of turning the tide of immigration southward, says: “It will be difficult to divert the current of the farmer immigrants from its present channels, as these people, as a rule, do not leave their homes in Germany and else- where unless they are sure of bettering their condition, and in this connection they will act on the advice of pioneer settlers, well known to them. “Immigration to the United States is largest after a bountiful crop in this coun- try. In other words, immigrants come if their friends have been prosperous. There ‘ are, however, new settlers in western states j of our country who might be prevailed upon to come south if sufficient induce- ments are offered them to change location. These people are to be found in sections where crops have failed owing to drought, | vermin or longand severe winters. Ifsuch people are once settled in the south and meet with success they will form colonies, | which soon attract a desirable class of im- migrants from Europe.” Judge Twiggs Married. CHATTANOOGA, May 17.—Judge H. D. | Twiggs of Augusta, Ga., who recently se- | cured a divorce at Sioux Falls, 8. D., from | Lucie E. Twiggs, a leading society woman of Augusta and a relative of Senator Gor- don, arrived in Chattanooga and was im- mediately married at the Stanton House | to Mrs. Cornelia E. Harrison, a charming | young widow of Charleston, S. C. She | has been living at the Stanton House for | the past month with her 5-year-old son, | awaiting the granting of the divorce to | Judge Twiggs. The judge is fully 30 years the senior of Mrs. Harrison. Diablo Won the Handicap.
