Hall at Waterbury, Conn.,. Wrecked.
Waterbury, Conn, dispatch: Several SOL
dies of the Salvation Army came here Sat
urday, and leasing the old Casino Theater,
began to hold meetings There was an un-
ruly crowd there Saturday night, but only
a few cat calls and whistles marred the
meeting. The officers OF the army pursued
their religious exercises during the meeting,
and by patience succeeded In making what
they considered, a fairly successful opening
Of their campaign The dozen members OF the
Ansonia army were consequently sent back
to join their own field Monday morning.
Captain Lambaud and Adjutant Sammons
were left to conduct the meetings alone
They had not got we'll on the stage Monday
night when the lights were turned out and
chairs and bottles and other missiles began
to fly. The mob rushed onto the stage and
beat the Salvationists until they were COM
PEELED to fee through the windows into a
small alley. The police came to the aid OF
the Salvation SITS, whom the whole interior
of the theater was found to be wreck.

greater interest in the home mission

some specially burning topics to discuss.
This years general assembly is no ex-

vail in the end. The Briggs case comes
up again and upon it hinges a question
Of great interest to the church-the
status Of the Union Theological Semi
nary. Since the last general assembly
Dr. Briggs and the New York Presby-
terry declared truce, but 1t has turned
out to be temporary. The delegation
from New York to the assembly is what
Is known as anti-Briggs" in sentiment.
There have been threats that the Union
Theological Seminary would promptly
withdraw from the Presbyterian fold II
DR.. Briggs Is TO he harassed by hereti-
cal charges. The common belief seems
to be that the General Assembly will
refer the whole controversy back to the
New York Presbytery for final settle
ment. In this event very important
educational institution may be preserved
to the church, as it is thought doubtful
on the question of DR.. Briggs orthodoxy
by the local body.
Then there Is a question OF the re-
vision Of the confession OF faith. To
most Presbyterians this will appear the

taking up at an early day one or
more OF the tariff bills passed by the

definite information was given as to the

report the free-wool bill or some other tar

weeks. Democratic Senators do not seem
very hopeful Of securing any tariff legisla-
tion without the aid OF the Finance Com
