The presbytery of New York met
on the 18th to consider an answer to
the general assembly's questions in
regard to revision of the Westmin-
ster confession of faith. The senti-
ment of the presbytery was not only
overwhelming in favor of revision, but
several of the members spoke so fer.
vently in denunciation of the old con-
fessioD of faith as to shock the strict
ly orthodox minority. An expression
used by many of the speakers was
that "the Presbyterian church is in
need of doctrinal statement which
can be used and which can be UNDER
stood"
The doctrines of irrevocable predes-
tination and infant damnation were
repudiated. One speaker compared
the Westminster confession to an an
aconda which holds the church in its
folds and frightens away the members
of other denominations. DIR. Paxton
said "a man who could preach some
of the articles Of our faith would not
be contemporary of the nineteenth
century. He must have walked out
of the seventeenth century. He
would be survival, and not of the
fittest. We cannot breathe with
Abraham's lungs. We cannot look
at God through Calvin's eyes. CAL
vim looked at God and saw nothing
but His terrible sovereignty. We see
that His name is Love-"
Many of the speakers declared that
the church needs new creed, a brief,
comprehensive statement, containing
only what Presbyterians hold it nee
essary to believe. The Rev. Drs. H.
M. Field, Philip Schaff, Howard Cros-
by, John r. Paxton, H. J. Van Dyke,
Richard Harlan and Samuel d. Bur.
chard were among those who voted in
favor of revision.-Detroit Journal.

The result of the elections held in

reformers. II was also somewhat of

Wednesday. Nov.1S 1889.

Pioneer, week before the recent
State elections; "Gov. Foraker is
going to be elected by rousing ma
jority." Pioneer, week after the
elections: "The State elections went
slightly Democratic on Tuesday,
but this is an off year." Yes, it is an
off year for Foraker.

What an Independent Republican
Paper Says.

The usual off year reaction against
an administration is unusually severe
this year. New York, in spite of bad
State nominations has elected the Dem
ocratic ticket. So in spite of party
quarrels has New Jersey. Ohio is
doubtful if not lost to the Republicans;
Malone has gone down out of sight
in Virginia. Even Iowa is Democrat
ic, and the Massachusetts, Republicans
have made no gains in spite of their
tariff campaign.
OF course the Republicans will un-
dertake to explain away these ugly
facts by various local causes but by
SO doing they only admit that the at
tachment of the party to the admins
tration is weak enough to allow local
incidents to nullify its loyalty. The
trouble is the administration is weak.
1t has alienated reformers by its vio-
lation of its civil service pledges. 1t
has offended the thousands whom it
failed to appoint without even the ex-
cuse of its civil service pledges. 1t
has offended both the soldiers and the
anti-liberal pensionists by first APP
pointing and then removing Tanner.
The rebuke administered is exception
ally stern and wide-reaching. Ex-
tending as it does from the Atlantic
to beyond the Mississippi and piling
the weight of Iowa and Massachusetts,
upon its condemnation, it does not
mean local but general dissatisfaction
with the administration and the Re-
publican party.-Detroit Journal.

Trains Lighted by Electricity

Trains Lighted by Electricity
and heated by steam are the latest i'm
provements for the benefit of its patrons,
adopted by the Chicago, Milwaukee and
st. Paul railway. The vestibuled trains
of this company, to and from Chicago,
are now equipped with the very finest
sleeping cars ever turned out by the Pull
man company. These contain twelve
sections and drawing room and smok-
ing room; have three lavatories for gen.
tlemen and three for ladies, supplied with
hot and cold water. The cars are equipp-
ed with modern closets, and two of the
sections in each car are draped to secure
privacy when desired. The entire train
is lighted by incandescent electric lights,
enabling the passengers to read the finest
print in any part of the car without diff
Guilty.
No such trains were ever before run i'm
he Northwest, and they are well worthy
the inspection of the public.
The prompt adoption of all improve
ments for the comfort and safety of the
travelling public by this great company
accounts for its high position in the esti-
nation of the people, and gives it the
bulk of their patronage, notwithstand-
ing the advent of old and new lines into

Fittingly Celebrated by Impos-
ing Ceremonies and Ser
vices at Baltimore.
All the Noted Churchmen Of the
Country in Attendance-Arch-
bishop reland's Address.

BALTIMORE, Nov. IA century
closes; a century opens" A hundred
years have come and gone since first
bishop of the Catholic church was given
to America. A century of time has been
added to the past since the creation of
the See at Baltimore. The centenary of
the church was celebrated in a manner
befitting the occasion. The old cathe-
oral that crowns the Charles street hill
had within its walls an assemblage most
notable, and around its iron picket fence
on Charles, Mulberry, Cathedral and
Franklin streets people thronged in thou
sands, who watched, some with interest,
others with pride, the procession of
priests and bishops, and fingered long
after the chant of the seminar
ians which announced that the service
had begun. Admission to the church
could be gained only by the tender of
card of invitation. Every available
bit of space within was utilized, yet
thousands of people, visitors as well as
Baltimoreans, had to be shut out.
The Gathering Of Prelates.
embraced two cardinals, seventeen arch
bishops and seventy bishops. The pope
was represented in the person of Arch
bishop Satolii, of Lepanto; Canada by
Cardinal Tascherau; Mexico by Bishops
Monies d. Oca and E. Antequara Gillow;
England by Bishop John Virtue, Of Ports
mouth, and Monsignor Cad, of London.
All of the archbishops in the United
States were present except Kenrick, of
St. Louis, who is too feeble to travel, and
dearly all the bishops. The solemn pom
fificial mass was begun at 11:15, with
Archbishop Williams, of Boston cele-
ibrant. 1t was 12:45 p. m. when the site
Missa Est was said. Then Archbishop
Ryan, of Philadelphia, assembled the pull
pit and preached the sermon, taking his
text from Ecclesiastics |, 1, =, 7, IA.
In the evening the scene at the cathe-
dral was a re-enactment of the morning,
with the substitution, of course, of YES
pers. Archbishop Heiss, of Milwaukee,
was the celebrant.
