for man to strike at the foundations of
the church. When eighty presbyteries
were moved to ask the assembly to pass
on DIR. Briggs tina assembly could not es-

Fixing Time for Voting.
A motion was then agreed to fixing the
time for the vote at 5 o'clock p. m, and
the debate was limited to ten-minute
speeches. Rev. James Lewis, of Joliet,

At the public reception Mayor Stuart
welcomed the president, who responded in
a speech in which he said: "You did not at
all depart from the great lessons which
were taught by the founders of this great
colony when, uniting with your comrades
from all the states, you went into the field
to hold up this banner, to maintain a peace
which should be perpetual and all-pervad
ing in all the states. Obedience to the law
is the first element of domestic peace and
social order. You went out to maintain
that, and have established, as l believe,
again in the affections of all our people the
old flag Of our fathers, and have settled
perpetually the question of loyal submits
sion to the constitution and the law in all
the states"

CLOSING SCENES OF THE DAY.
Struggle for Recognition as Time Passed
The Final Vote.

A Struggle for Recognition ms Time Passed
The Final Vote.
The scenes in the assembly as consider
ation of the case came to close were very
exciting. After the adoption of the reso-
luton in favor of taking a vote on the
matter at o'clock, both sides began get
ting in their best ticks. Briggs friends
were persistent in their attempt to post
pone consideration. During the last few
minutes the contention for the floor was
terrific. Civil Service Commissioner Ly-
man; Rev. DIR. Baker, of Philadelphia, and
Rev. DIR. Bartlett, of Washington City,
were among those who were fortunate in
securing the moderator's eye, and, though
Judge Shipman of New Jersey, had been
waiting an hour under Moderator Green's
nose for a chance to say last good word
for Briggs, the moderator did not notice
him.
Five o'clock came with DIR. Bartlett urg-
ing the veto of Dr. Briggs appointment,
when a Briggs man jumped up with a mo-
ton to adjourn. The assembly howled
him down. Dr. Worcester's substitute for
the report of President Patton's commit
tee was first presented. There was not one
hundred in favor of it, Next came DIR.
Logan's amendment that disapproval be
extended only for the present, which was
voted down with as big an adverse major
ity as Dr. Worcester's substitute. Then
came the report of Patton's committee.
Amid wild excitement, mingled with hi
larity, the vote was ordered, but from dis
order the whole scene changed to most
solemn stiffness when the name of the
first presbytery on the list was called by
the stated clerk. The ayes had it from
the start. Only solitary "no" lent aid
and comfort to the Briggsites for half an
hour. The southwestern reserve and the
far west were solidly Princetonian, The
moderator voted for the report, as did the
stated clerk. DIR. Patton was not present.
The foreign delegates voted"aye"as strong
ly as they knew how. When the vote was
counted it stood 40 to 80. Briggs ap-
pointment had been vetoed, and Princeton
had won the greatest theological battle
since the trial of Professor Swing. Ad-
journed.

Death at the Convention.

DETROIT, May 29.-Grim death put a sud-
den and awful stop to the debate in the
Presbyterian assembly yesterday over the
Briggs case by hushing forever the voice
of one of the debaters just at the close of
his speech. Judge S. M. Breckenridge,
one of the most conspicuous figures in the
assembly, was the victim, and his startling
taking off cast gloom that was dramatic
over the whole body of commissioners.
Judge Breckenridge had just completed
his remarks on the Briggs case and turned
toward the clerks desk when he gasped
and fell insensible. He Was carried to an
ante-room and attended by DR.. Yeomans,
but expired in a few INMATES, the cause
of death being heart disease. The debate
was discontinued at once, the banquet set
for last night postponed, and a memorial
service ordered instead.

A Monument Unveiled to the Memory of
the Andrews Raiders.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, June 1.-The fact
that the military "spy" cannot be dishon-
ored by being forced to suffer dishonor-
able death was illustrated here Saturday,
when a monument to the Andrews raid
ers, provided by the state of Ohio, was I'M
yelled 1t was the event of Decoration
Day, and Ex-Governor Foraker was orator
of the occasion, while half a dozen descend
ants of the raiders were present What is
known as the Andrews raid occurred in
April, 1862. The leader, James j. Andrews,
was Union spy. He made two attempts
with Ohio soldiers in 1852 to make his way
through the south to Atlanta, Ga, and
capture locomotive, on which he and his
companions proposed to ride over the
road to Chattanooga, burning the bridges
after them. Both failed.
A Terrible Race for Life.
1t was in the second attempt that he and
seven of his men lost their lives. He and
his men captured locomotive and three
freight cars in the second raid at Big
Shanty, but after tremendously exciting
run and hot pursuit of ninety two miles,
during which there was much hard work
and some very desperate chances taken, The
raiders abandoned the engine and took to
the woods, to be all captured within the
next two or three days. There were TWEEN
ty-two men in the party. Eight were exc
cuted, eight escaped, and six were ex-
changed.
Names of the Eight Heroes.
The men executed were James j. An
drews, of Flemingsburg, KY; Marion A.
Ross, George Wilson and Perry G. Shad-
rock, of the Second Ohio infantry; j. M.
Scott, of the Twenty-frst; Samuel Slavens
and Samuel Robertson, of the Thirty
third, and William II. Campbell, of Sa-
lineville, o. They all understood the ma
ture of the service which they undertook
and the risks they ran. Had they succeed
ed their efforts would have had marked
effect on the progress of the war.

that the dealer would not be likely to see
such things in playing with friends

This was in reply to one of the jurors,
who created a sensation by Kissing and
questioning the prince He f0fther asked
what the princes opinion of the case was
at the time the charges were made. The
prince replied that no course was left open
for him but to believe them, owing to the
unanimity of the accusers. Another thing
brought out was that the prince has "cut"
Sir William. He said in answer to ques-
tion that "it would be more agreeable" for
Sir William not to meet him.

never more generally observed in this city

military organization in the city was in
the parade in the morning, together with
q large number of civic societies and an
army of old veterans. In the afternoon
services were held at Grants tomb. The
United States man-of-war Enterprise was
anchored in the Hudson river opposite the
tomb and fired minute guns during the
continuance of the services. A number of
ex-Confederates were present as guest of

promise of the Case.
After few more speeches pro and con,
DIR. J. H. Worcester, whose Calvinistic
views are of the strictest sort, proposed a
substitute for the resolution and DR.. Lo-
gan's amendment. His substitute pro-
posed that inasmuch as the relations be-
tween Union college and the assembly had

mittee to confer with the directors of
Union seminary as to the relations of the
seminary to the assembly next year; that
the directors be requested to rescind the
transfer of DR.. Briggs, and that in any
event DIR. Briggs be not allowed to give in
struction in theology. The substitute was
seconded, and DIR. Worcester addressed
the assembly in advocacy thereof.
Wanted to soothe the Directors.
He said the substitute provided course
calculated to soothe the self-respect of the
directors of Union, who felt that undue
haste was being exercised in the case. 1t
gave time for new light to come in for all.
If it was referred back to the directors they
could revoke the appointment, which
ended the affair; they could reappoint and
the matter would come up again in a year
with better knowledge of the case and they
could disapprove. 1t was easy to do in a
day what could not be undone in genera
ton. Let the assembly not repeat the
errors of the fathers. Errors seldom come
through acting too deliberately. DIR. Wor-
cester's speech was received with a storm
of applause.

A Railway Lawyers Views.

Colonel John J. McCook, the great rail-

Halls church in New York. said he wanted
to burn into the hearts of the commission
ers what their departed brother had said,
and impress upon them the necessity of
doing the only possibly thing it could do.
Suggestions had been made about the lob
bies warning the assembly to be careful.
Careful of what? OF doing their duty? If
they did that they would send out to the
world a report of the only honest action
they could take. Rev. Mr.. Hathaway had
shown his opinion'of Union by deciding to
send his son to Princeton, after he had ar
ranged for him at Union, rather than
place him under the influence of man
who attacked the Bible. This brought
cries of shame, "Shame," and the speaker
sat down.
