FEARING 4 PRESBYTERIAN EXODUS.

DIsCussING TIE NEED OF CATHoLICTTY AT THE
MEETING OF THE NETWORK PREsBYTERY.
At the meeting of tho Presbytery of Now.York yes
terday tho Rev. DR.. C. L. Thompson read report Oh
N. comuIttee on the "Revsion OF FaIth.' The 10
mort was in favor OF recommending that the General
Assembly which meot this week in this city, ask the
presbytees whether the confession OF faith should be
amended and II so In what particular. DIT Thomp-
son spoke briefly in support OF the report IL was
opposed by Professor Briggs as being inadequate 10
the exigency. DR.. Thompson's remarks, he thought
were more to the purpose. The report iSeif was
simply a compromise which involved the Presoytery
without eGectlng its purpose 1t would be necessary
10 cut out ono half the ives inser standards TO make
the confession cover all the opinions Of the PresOy-
terrain Church OF to-day.
The present difficulty no added, Is largely Inc
Interpretation OF the Westminster standards In the
schools. As things now are, many students arc DC
barred from the Presbyterian ministry, and this Is the
reason our students go TO tho Congregational ana
Episcopal churches. There will DO sun greater
exodus yet II something Is not done They will go to
a church whore there IL a greater catholcky'
Professor Briggs offered a substitute 10 the effect
that, there many departures from the West
minister Standards and many tender consclenceS IN
the Presbyterian Church arc troubled TO whether
they subscribe u these standards, and as many
ministers arc retiring from tho Church, we ask the
General Assembly tO appoint a cOmnnUeo 10 uecT
mine what relief can DO given 70 these tender con-

New Brunswick has never had such a school cleo
lion as the held yesterday. II was the first one
at which women had been allowed TO vote. and more
ballots were cast than at any school election be-
fore held In tho city. Much excitement was mani
fes ted and tho streets crowded with people. Over
400 women voted. and many were crowded out Of
the line at tho polls. There arc usually about 500
votes polled at these elections Yesterday over 2,s0o
votes were cast There considerable fighting and
disorder. Tho Woman's Christian Temperance Union
took active part in getting women TO the polls
There were FIVE tickets In the field. and warrN con
tests over several questions. Of the chief being
a struggle for supremacy between the Catholics and
Protestants. The counting Of tho votes not com
pIeted until this morning. 1t thought at late
hour last m ght thai the majority for the ~Ctlzcns'
toket would be about $50. This IS a rebuko 10 tho
present board which is accused Of mixing politics with
business. and a defeat for the Catholics.
