LONDON, March 27.-The Wesleyan ngi-
tation over biblical inspiration is extending
to other churches. Leading thsologians
keenly discuss Prof. Davisons criticism OF
the tenet of verbal inspiration. Three Wes-
leyan professors, Banks Of Headingley COL
lege, Slater of Didsbury and Nc
Donald of Hansworth college, concur
in the opinion that Prof DavisoE's
paper ought not TO dismay the orthodox.
They argue that it is necessary to reconcile
the popular and scientific views Of the
scriptures. DR.. Clifford describes it as
"well balanced, luminous and breathing in
tellectual sincerity of Wesley" A
Scotch professor (Bruce) counts the
Wesleyan ministry's attitude as a token
that God is guiding his church in the path
OF wisdom through critical period of his
tory. On the other hand, Mr.. Spurgeon
and several Baptist ministers, while refrain
ing from detailed attacks on the new move
ment, constantly refer TO "the fomenters Of
doubt" and pray that God will supply be-
lieving, earnest men

SATISFACTION IN FRANCE.
LONDON, March 2S, 3 A. M-The Journal
des Debdts of Paris. in an article on the
Newfoundland question, expresses satisfac-
tion with the convention recently concluded.
1t regards the presence Of Queen Victoria
and Lord Salisbury in France as
an excellent symptom of the situa-
ton. England, it says, has acted
perfectly correc ly toward France, but has
displayed remarkable weakness In dealing
with Newfoundland. Commenting on the
calls of the British press to suppress the
Utrecht treaty, the Journal reminds them
that the same treaty gave Gibraltar to
England. In conclusion the Journal says
that France will reinquish none of her
rights.
The Times, commenting on the foreg Ding,
warns France that England does not intend
to dragon her colonies, and reminds New

BLAINE IN HIS OFFICE,
Harrison Calls to see Him and They
Have Talk.

WASHINGTON, March q. - Secretary
Blaine drove through the snowstorm to the
state department. this moruing, but did not
attend the cabinet meeting. Learning that
Secretary Blaine would not be at the cabi-
net meeting, President Harrison walked
over to the state department in the teeth OF
tue driving snow and was closeted with
Secretary Blaine for an hour in the private
office Of the Secretary Of State This un~
usual occurrence started several sensational
rumors, the most prominent Of which was
that Secretary Blaine had determined to
leave the cabinet aud that the President was
trying to prevail upon him to remain.
THE RUMoRs DENIED.
All these rumors were promptly denied,
and it was given out that the President and
the premier were discussing, as they have
discussed at several interviews at Secretary
Blaine's house during the past ten DAYS, the
three pending questions as to foreign rela-
tions-fiTst, the Bering sea matter, which,
it is announced, is shortly to be referred to
an arbitrator, the negotiations for a con-
vention to effect a close season for a term
of years TO come; second, the reciprocity
agreements with the countries south
of U.S. and awaiting the decision
OF the Madrid cabinet, as to which
Secretary Blaine has had several
cable communications from Special Envoy
Foster, pointing out the difficulties in his
way; and third, the Macdonald Canadian
reciprocity scheme, to which neither Secre-
tary Blaine nor the President as yet
attach any Importance They regard it as
nothing but meretricious attempt on Sir
John MacDonald's part to seem to redeem
his ante-electlon promises, ont of which

HEARsI's FUNERAL TRAIN.
Charges Of Drunkenness and Ex-
trave gsnce Denied.

Il
travagsnce Denied.
WASHINGTON, March 27.-The special
train which left here March conveying
the remains of Senator Hearst and the
members OF the congressional escort TO San
Francisco, returned to Washington at 2 Is
O'Clock this afternoon. OF the congressional
committee appointed by the houses of
congress to attend the funeral only
Senators Sawyer, Barbour, Carlisle
and Faulkner, and Representatives Sher-
man, Gibson and Tucker came back on the
train, the others either having left at cons
venient points on the route to return to their
homes or remained in San Francisco. All
the party appeared in good health.
NOT ON A DRUNK.
Sergeant-at-Arms Valentine Of the SEN
ate, who conducted the party out and back,
speaking for the party, denounced the state
ments published about its alleged reveling
as absolutely untrue. According to Mir.
Valentine, the party was sober and
dignified, il not funereal. from beginning
to end, and behaved as people ought
to behave on funeral occasions. Its men,
bers were very indignant when they got
this morning newspaper on their way hero
and read Mrs. Cougars statement at st.
Louis that their behavior was scandalous,
liquors, and that they had not drop Of
water with them.
WHAT THEY DRANK.
They said that those Of the party who
drank wine at home drank it at meals on
the train, but that the railway people said
they drank less than the average of private
consumption. They did drink great deal
of Apollinaris, and the bottles which Mrs.
Cougar saw were chiefly Apollinaris bottles
Those members of the party who drink
wine, bought several cases of California
wine each, in California, and brought it
home with them. There was, of course,
they say plenty of water on the train.
MRS. GoNGAR's GRIEVANCE.
The whole trouble with Mrs. Cougar was.
they say that they would not, because they
could not, take, on their train of four cars
the three cars of a Mexican excursion, of
which she was a member, which we're una
BILE to get locomotive at Fort Worth.
EXTRAvAGANCE DENIED.
Senator Faulkner said the charges of ex-
travagance and of revelling were equally
absurd and untrue. Mrs. Hearst invited a
number Of the ladies who went, and the ex-
penses Of the others were paid by their
husbands or fathers. All the United
States will pay for will be the
expenses of the official escort,
nineteen senators and representatives
and four officials of the Senate and the
House. Ten or fifteen thousand dollars
will, it is said, cover the government bill
throughout the trip. Senator Faulkner
said everybody behaved with perfect
dignity.
