Mormons Going to British Columbia.

HELENA, Mont, May 24.-During the
last fortnight number of emigrants have
been passing through Montana en- route to
the British possessions, travelling by
wagon. 1t has been ascertained that they
are Mormons from Utah and Idaho, and
their destination is that country through
which the railway passes. Some time ago
the Alberta Railway and Coal company was
approached by agents of the Mormon hier
archy with the proposition to buy several
thousand acres of the company's land in
the northwest territory upon which to set
tie colony of Saints. Negotiations were
finally completed about month ago, but it is
not known what the consideration was, nor
just how many acres oil land were pur-
chased. The deal was large one, how
ever, and the province is likely to have a
very considerable Mormon population soon.

BLAINE'S FOREIGN POLICY.
To Keep up His Prestige as lingo, He will
Demonstrate in Hayti.

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch. ]
WASHINGTON, May 24.-Secretary Blaine
is preparing little demonstration towards
Hayti, which will help to support his repu-
tation as the champion of vigorous for
eign policy. 1t leaked out yesterday that
he is contemplating sending a:...commission
OF three to Hayti on war vessel to watch
events there and negotiate for coaIing
station and maintain American prestige.
The plans have not been completed vet.
and the people at the department are reluc-
tant to talk about them. The secretary of
the navy has been consulted, however, and
has agreed to furnish the Bosten and
Ossipee to carry the commissioners. The
three gentlemen whose names were talked
about for the commission yesterday were
Congressman Hit, of Illinois; Governor
Wallace, of indiana, and ex-Consul Pack
ard, OF Iowa. Mr.. Hit is not anxious to
go and one else may be substituted.
The fact that the commissioners go in
war vessels, is not to be interpreted as an
evidence that physical force is to be called
into play and it is thought that this sort of
an escort will give them mere dignity and
prestige and secure for them more respect
full consideration from the Haytien gov
eminent. The Haytien minister here was
not especially enamorad Of the plan when
he heard of it yesterday and intimated that
any friendly overtureS would most prop
erly be made through him. 1t will certainly
be delicate undertaking for our commits
sioners to interfere in the civil contest
going on in the island, but that is under
stood to be one of Mr.. Blaine's ideas. He
will also authorize the commission to keep
a close watch over commercial interests in
Hayti and this may be made the pretext of
the entire demonstration. If a c0aling sta
ton is selected, it will probably be at St.
Nicholas mole.

New York Presbrterisns.

New YORK. May 24.-In the general as
sembly of the Presbyterian church this
morning, telegram was read from the
clerk of the southern assembly announcing
that that body had adopted the majority re-
port in favor of the cooperation in the
home and foreign fields, in the evangelical
ton of the colored people, and cooperation
in matters of publication, ETC., by vote of
80 to 81 The statement was received with
applause.
The debate on the third section of the
majority report on cooperation in the
evangelization of colored people con
tinued. The report is the same as that
adopted by the southern assembly. Rev.
DR.. Stryker, of Chicago, moved to strike
out the part of the report (which reads that
while conceding the existing situation
the northern assembly approves the
policy of separate churches, presbyter-
les and synods subject to the
choice of the colored people themselves.
Carried by 400 to 50. With this exception
the paper as whole was adopted and the
paper on co operation was also approved
The next thing was to adopt the majority
report as whole as amended. This was
done, only few ''noes' being heard. A
motion was then made to telegraph the
southern assembly, which has been done.
Rev. George T. Purvis moved that when
the clerk telegraphs the clause be stricken
out He also adds reason that it was
done ''not to prejudice the future action
nor outline the future policy of the church,
but simply because this assembly did not
believe it stated the historical facts of the
case" Carried, 202 to 1917.
On the overture of fifteen presbyteries
asking for revision of the Westminster
confession of faith, DIR. Crosby advised
that if any action be taken with this stand
ard of the church, it should be with the ut
most caution. In conclusion, he recon
mended the adoption of the report of the
committee, which recommended that all
presbyteries should be asked: "Do you re-
quire revision of the confession of faith,
and if so, to what extentl" The report
was accepted and the assembly adjourned.
