OF seventy.nine churches invited to the

last evening informed the committee OF
their decision to send delegates. Five
churches had not been heard from. Rev.
DR.. Theodore D. Woolsey, Of New Haven,
Rev. DR.. Bushnell, oil Hartford, and Rev,
DR.. Tilman have written letters express
ing regret that oh account Of illness they
were unable 70 be present. Rev. Dr..
Verwyle is in Florida, and hon. Henry
Haven, OF Connecticut, on account OF
pressing business at home, cannot come
No word has been received from Rev.
DR., George F. Morgan, OF Iowa, and he
is not expected. These are all Repre-
sentative Congregationslists. The Coun.
Gil will organize this evening, but It can
not be toreseen how 1t will be organized,
or who will be elected presiding officer.
Last nights programme includes only
an organization, but 1t Is probable that q
proposition will be made 10 change the
council from erpdTte to mutual one, and
formally invite Plymouth Church to Join
1t. Mr.. Beecher says that his Church has
at no time refused 10 take part In the
council. II the question Is to be decided
by 1t, II could be satisfactorily arranged.
Storrs and Buddington say they have
been unable to bring Plymouth Church
to the point Of either acceptance or re.
fusal. 1t Is believed that some OF the del.
egates will withdraw If Plymouth Church
is not explicitly invited to lake part,
and the initial controversy will be had
over that point by Sorrs and Budding
ton, in favor Of the invitation, and
1t Is intended that the Council shall close
on Friday next. Many of the invited
churches will be represented only by
their pastors, and so the number OF par
ticipants will be reduced to below one
hundred. The seating capacity OF Clin-
ton Avenue Church is l 400, and admis-
sion will only be given 10 holders OF tick
etc, most OF which have already been dis.
tributed among clergymen and, the con-
gregatlons Of Drs. Storrs and Budding
ton.
