The Westminster Confession.

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-The clergy of the New York Presbytery held further discuss sion this afternoon on the proposed revision of the Westminster Confession. Rev. Dr. Francis Brown, of Union seminary, favored revision. "The new creed" he said, twill be frief and that is a recommendation. Gods love will be central in it."
 Rev. Charles s. Robinson held that there should be no modification nor change of the confession of faith. He thought the com mittes on revision were unsuitable men to undertake such work. Dr. Parkhurst, a member of the committee, he said, had preached from his pulpit that he did not be- ieve that five people in his church had ever read the Westminster Confession and that he himself would not read it. Rev. R. J. Kerr said the speaker was personal in his remarks and the moderator agreed with him. Mir. Kerr and Rev. Henry McCracken both spoke in favor of revision.

HOW IF HAPPENED.

The kallnre ofDavld Mayer 0fHartford
 HARTFORD, Jan. 22.-Mr. Mayer, the jewell
 or and diamond merchant whose suspension
 was announced yesterday, has liabilities of
 not oyer $130, ,000 with aesets at about $65,- 000. His troubles date back to 1883, when his brother, head of Ferdinand Mayer & Go. of New York, wholesale clothiers, failed for over million. David Mayer was on that paper for $Ss, 900, and has paid it since. Then he was involved about q, ,0e0 in the effort to keep his son-in.law, 8. Hirsch, in New YoSk. ae At the death of his brother, simon 4aySr, he lost $5, 400, and by that brothers son1n-law, M. Schumann, he lost SS,3OO more. His son Henry Mayer cost him anout $l900 by spending money foolishly, lapse of the Diamond Parlor, which was opened under the Midland Hotel in Kansas City in charge of his son Henry. Other fam fly complications involved him to tho extent of s, ,O00more. Altogether he figures up a cash loss of from 4S5, 900 to $9o, o,0o6.
 This has been heavy drag, and along with 1t business has been bad. To keep going he has had to borrow, and 1t is under stood owes about $50, 900 to the banks, ,$8, 800 Tn Springfield. The immediate cause of the present trouble is that his son-in-law, Max U. Stern. who Is in the wholesale liquor bus mess m New York, and who has been help- ing him, has made new business arrange ments which involve promise on his part to cease endorsing.
 MT. Mayer came to Hartford in 1S47 and began here by peddling Yankee notions. His tact and courtesy built up business for him that has reached large proportions. For 20 years he has been in the jewelry business on the corner of Main and Asylum streets, mak- ing speciality of diamonds and imported His credit has been reckoued Al. He has many friends who unite in hoping that the creditors may come to an agreement on Saturday that will enable him to 20 on with his business,

Rase Rali A6alra.

LOWELL, Mass., Jan. 22.-Affsirs in the Atlantic association took new turn to-day, when Secretary Brsden notified the meme bers, including Lowell, Worcester and Hart ford, that a meeting1wouId be held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, on Friday next at which Messrs. Day and Byrne of the board of arbitration will be present. and at whose suggestion. Braden says, the meeting Is called. Neither Lowell nor Worcester will send @ representative to this meeting, and Hartford will probably follow this course, as it is now irrevocably pledged to the New England league. The call, close on the heels of the refusal of Hartford, Lowell and Worcester to pay the annual dues and guaranty on Monday last on pain of expul- sion is regarded by Manager Sullivan of the Lowells as confession that the Atlantic is in tottering condition and is anxious to ooncillate the New England clubs which pro- pose drawing out. There is very bitter feeling among the packers of these clubs against Burnham, Braden and Barnie, who they claim have been working against their interests, and they have determined to have 2 New England league or to go out of base ball altogether. The Lowell management received seven applications for places on the team to-day. Pitcher German has asked for his release, but will not get it.

Suit over Childish Quafrel.
 NoRwALK, Conn.,, Jan. 22.-The property of John ". Powell, grand juror of this town, and Matthew Corbett of the firm of c. Swartz & Go. was attached yesterday by Deputy Sheriff Toner in suit for q, eco damages brought by Christian Locke on ac- count of the arrest of his six year old son Charles for whipping Corbett's five year old son Matthew. Powell's persecution of Char lie, together with the extraordinary pen alty inflicted by Justice Knapp, created great excitement last September when the case was tried. The evidence showed that there had been merely childish quarrel be- tween the two youngsters, bat outside Knapp astonished the citizens by sentencing the! child to 3the Reform school until he was of age. This was equiva- lent to fifteen years imprisonment and public, feeling was aroused and sevsral indignation ueleetings were held. The oass was appealed,

 Polo Pointers.
 Polo games this evening: Springfield at Bridgeport and Hartford at New Britain.
 New Haven does not play until tomorrow night when they will have for their oppo- nents the New Britains.
 Taking everything into consideration Reeds work in goal during the past week has been we'll nigh phenomenal.
 When New Haven plays in Springfield they gre advertised ss tthe ladies' favotites. :" Even this does not seem to help them to win games.
 The Hartford Amusement association has loaned "Joe" Reilly, the goal tend to Spring field for the rest of the season. Reilly was at one time known as the king of goal tends, but "Pocahontas" Smith now wears the crown.
 Perry played the best game he has played this season last Tuesday night against New Ravens. Bancroft will probably hold him a while longer. -'---> syrs= -7.
 Sword is playing great game in goal for Hartford. He may be an improvement. Take half the polo players to-day and it will be found that they are not playing in the positions that they were when they com menced to play the game.
 Cunningham and Dunning are fair team, but if Dunning would help "Cunni" out . little more Meriden polo cranks would see some better polo playing.
 There is no polo players in the league who can gs into corner with Conway of the Bridgeports and come out with the ball with the exception of Seeley of the Hartfords.
 If polo players would play the game like Parsons of the New Britains does there would be very little need of fning anybody.
 There has been more or less talk lately about the scarcity of polo players, and what was the reason of it. All of the players in this league with one exception are from Massachusetts. The reason for this is not because there was no field to pick from, but because managers would not recognize the abilities of young players, and they thought that nobody could play polo except those who came from Massachusetts Then, again, the players who came into this league were not any too friendly to home talent, and in Q number of cases refused to work with them. If the polo players in the league would take hold and show the young players, the way they ought to, there would be plenty of men to pick from. Take, for instancs, the case of Wodtke, New Haven boy. He can with practice learn to keep cool and put up just as good article of polo as anybody would like to see. In polo it is about the same as in base ball, and there are very few instances where g man will be found playing with team that represents his home. If player wants to have his abilities recognized he has got to get away from home, as there is al ways certain clique who will work against him,
