ADDRESS BY DR.. BRIGGS.
He Speaks in Reference to His Position
Presbyterian Unity His Theme

SYRACUSE, June 15.--Mr. Charles A.
Briggs of Union Theological seminary de-
livered an address at q banquet OF the
Presbyterian Social union of Central New
York. DIR. Briggs said that during his re-
cert stay on the Pacific coast be had re-
fused all invitations to speak or preach or
even pray in public and he had thought he
would keep still till fall. His theme
was presbyterian Unity" He said, let it
be distinctly understood there can be no
unity without diversity. A great many
people confound unity with uniformity and
in attempting to force uniformity really
create division. Unity demands variety
and in uniformity there can be none. there
fore no unity.
Speaking of the proposed revision of the
confession of faith he said it started sud-
denly without great leaders and developed
q powerful but blind force showing the pop
ular need of relief from the creed of the
seventeenth century. Shall 1 tell you what
our standard is nows he continued. 1t is
theology as taught in different seminaries
and many of the doctrines of the West
minister confession are wholly ignored;
that is why change is demanded for con
sistency must be either revision or new
creed of church unity. He said If we COD
solidate the different KINDS of churches
have estimated we could spare $4,000 minis
tiers and save annually O,0CO.

PRELIMINARY WORK
Cleveland and BOies' Head
quarters Opened at Chicago.
HILL MEN APPEAR TO BE SCARCE
Committee on Arrangements Actively En-
gagged in Their WOrk-Delegates Already
Arrivlng-Speculativ Predictions,

CHICAGO, June 15.-The Democratic ma
tional convention is showing the first signs
of becoming thing of life. BY tomorrow
it will begin to grow until by next Tuesday
the biggest convention the Democratic
party ever held will be full grown.
The Boies managers from Iowa
STARTED A BOOM FOX THEIR FAvoRITE
early this morning by establishing head
quarters at the Palmer house, and were
kept busy during the day sending out
documents showing the great popularity OF
Boies.
The Cleveland men, not to be outdone by
the Hawkeyes, established similar head
quarters at the Grand Pacific and letters
and circulars are being sent out to weak
delegates who it is supposed can be won
over if Cleveland is shown to be the
strongest candidate.
There is only one Hillite on the ground,
but this individual has sufficient enthu-
siasm for half dozen and is loudly pro
claiming his fsvorite.
The subcommittee on arrangements Of
the national committee are already pre-
of delegates. Members of the national
committee will begin arriving tomorrow,
and Friday there will be full meeting OF
the committee on arrangements.
Three places are TO be filed on the
national committee. Two were caused by
death and one by resignation since the last
meeting G. A. Broadwater OF Montana,
and General John S. Barbour of Virginia,
died. while J. A Estil of Georgia resigned.
The so-called Hill "big four''-Richard
Croker, Boss Mclaughlin, Edward Muir
ply and Lieutenant Governor Sheehan-
will arrive tomorrow.
The probabilities are that the entire
opposition to Cleveland will be combined
and directed by Hill men, who, when con-
WINGED there is 40 possible chance for their
man,
WILL CENTER on A DARK HORSE,
There are strong indications that Cleve-
lands opposition will assist Dan Voorhees,
of Indiana in making trouble for Governor
Gray in mis- probable capacity OF vice presi-
Dental candidate with Cleveland, being a
great pillar of strength in the Cleveland
column.
The condition which the Illinois delega-
ton is to occupy is still uncertain. Since
the state convention has come to public
! knowledge, the friends of Colonel William
r. Morrison. by skilful management, have
succeeded in securing control of the delega=
tion, and the question now is whether
Cleveland, Palmer or Morrison is to have
their support despite their Instructions
J. j. Macomb of Tacoma reached here
today. Although not delegate be is an
advance representative of the Washington
delegation. Malcomb says Washington,
Montana and the coast states, too, so far as
he knows,
ARE FOR CLEVELAND.
John C. Rays, delegate from California,
does not know the views of his colleagues,
but thinks Cleveland will be nominated.

the Licking river between Covington and

under the direction of Robert and William

work on the main span. Without warning,
except a sudden cracking OF timbers the

long plunge of the mass of timber ana iron
