RRIGCs AND SMITH.

Arguments OF the Prosecution In
Recitation of DR.. Briggs' Theories
Final Reply of Professor Smith.
NEW YORK, Dec. SIN the Briggs trial
to-day Colonel McCook resumed his argu-
ment for the prosecution. He said: eff
the reason is a source of divine authority
then the bible is no longer the only infalli-
BILE rule of faith and practice. Men reason
differently. Professor Briggs statement
that the bible is not the exclusive source
of divine authority would deny the infalli-
bility of the bible at the same time. Pro-
lessor Briggs statement that the great
body of messianic prophecy can never be
fulfilled for the reason that its own time
has passed forever is a charge that God
can lie. Professor Briggs theories about
the scriptures are not reooncilable with the
teachings of the scripture. Professor
Briggs theory Of progressive sanotifca-
ton is in direct conflict with the
standards of the Presbyterian church. The
middle state held by DR.. Briggs has moth
ing in common with the Roman Catholic
doctrine of purgatory, but if we had to
choose either 1 think we would all prefer
tAo ISCAoA oakAoAAo puISapOAy. 4SoA 40
Professor Briggs a universalist, for he
teaches that some men will be lost. Pro-
lessor Briggs theories are the expressions
of naturalistic philosophy, not Of super
natural religion. His writings are filled
with materialism. Professor Briggs may
be convinced of the truth of his teachings,
but if so. he must not preach these things
from Presbyterian pulpit. The neces-
| sity of trial for heresy is greatly to be
| deplored. But the responsibility lies, not
| upon those who are loyal to the Presby-
terrain doctrine, but upon those who are its
| ASSISTANTS. Considerable applause was ex-
cited by the forcible and earnest perora-
| ton to Colonel McCook's address.
The trial was adjourned until Tuesday.
/ CINCINNATI, Dec. S.-Dr. McKibben for
the prosecution, closed his argument this
afternoon in the Smith heresy trial. His
argument was directed to the positions
| taken by Professor Smith concerning dis
crepancies in Chronicles and Kings. DR.
McKibben said these apparent discrepancies
were easily reconciled by attention to thu
fact that in Kings the secular or civic sid'
of the story is given, while Chronicles wal
hood.
Professor Smith, in his final reply, sait
that even the committees theory did no
rule out all forms of error, but only Ger
tain forms. He held it could not be sinfu
to inquire into certain forms of error ant
not as to others. He had been told that t
be logical he must deny all inspiration /
he denied any. He WAS not shut up to an
such result. This afternoon the presbyter
went into secret session to consider tn
case. When 1t adjourned it was to NEE
on Monday next. A vote Is expected b
Tuesday or Wednesday. Thirty-nine mir
listers and eighteen elders are eligible to 81
| in Judgment 1t is estimated that eightee
B ministers and six elders are favorable
o Professor Smith.

A SERIES OF ACCIDENTS.
Killing of a Woman Followed by
CollIsfon-SeveraI Persons Injured.

Killing of n Woman Followed by a
CollIsion-Several Persons Injured.
GREENvILLE, N. j., Dec. Sat 11:3O
O'Clock this morning the Bound Brook
express, running to Jersey City, struck
and killed woman in front of the depot
here, on the Central Railroad of New Jer
sey. The train was stopped Immediately.
On the opposite track, outward bound,
came anothe express on the Central road.
The engineer saw the killing of the woman
and stopped his train. Just behind him
on the same track followed third express,
also outward bound. When the engineer
of the second train stopped 1t was done go
suddenly that the engineer of the third
express could not avert a collision. The
passengers in the rear car of the second
express saw the third train running them
down and q panic ensued. The engine of
the third express ploughed into the car
ahead half it's length.
The only person killed in this singular
| accident was the woman who was struck
| by the first engine. About dozen people
were injured by the telescoping. A Miss
| Gilroy was very badly hurt and her In
| juries may prove fatal. Another woman
was also very seriously hurt, but h er name
has not yet been ascsrtained. One man had
his collar bone broken. Others were in
! iured by flying glass and iron.

Strung Up the Sailors.

Boston, Dec. S.-The hearing in the
case of Captain Daniel @. Nichols and
Mates Robert Crosby and Daniel Nc
Corkell of the ship Wandering Jew, who
were arrested yesterday charged with in
ficting cruel and UNUSUAL treatment upon
their crew while at sea, was held before
United States Commissioner Fisk at his
court this afternoon. The captain testi-
fed after the men had given their evil
dence. He said: 81 have been following
the sea for thirty years. l strung the
men up because they refused to go to
work; 1t is nothing unusual to punish
sailors in that way when they refuse to
work.
Commissioner Fisk thought there was
sufficient evidence to hold the three men
for the United States district court. The
captain was held in So, 900 and the mates in
1900 each.

BOSTON MERCHANTS CLUB.
President Mcleod Talks About the
Railroad Facilities OF New England
The Boston and Maine's Place
Among the Great Systems.
+ BOSTON, Dec S-President Mcleod of
the Boston and Maine and Reading rail-
road systems was the guest of the Boston
Merchants club at Parker's tonight. He
spoke on the general subject of "Boston's
Terminal Facilities" ;, He called attention
to the limitations at present placed upon
the terminal facilities of Boston and COM
pared them with those of Philadel-
phia and Chicago. The Boston and
Maine system, he said, handles thir-
ty-fve millions of people annually, with
but one exception the largest number of
passengers handled by any railroad in
the United States. This is sn enormous
responsibility. We realize that the work
of handling those passengers is imperfect
ly done. But while the Boston and Maine
has not yet reached the standard we hope
to attain, find after a careful examination
of the property that its roadbed and its
tracks are equal to those of the great rail
ways of tbs country in all essential facili-
ties, and when sufficient time has elapsed
to carry into practical use plans we'll digest
ed the Boston and Maine will rank first
with the greatest railway lines in the coun-
try.
The speaker said the thrift and prosper
ity of New England towns and cities along
the line of the Boston and Maine system
seemed to disprove the accepted dogma
that such conditions were only brought
about by railroad competition. Certainly
the people are thus better served than
trunk lines. Ruinous competition is in
most If not every case prelude to fatal
assault upon the integrity of a railway
the first step towards railway wrecking.
am not advancing these ideas as argu-
ments against legitimate competition nor
as in advocacy of the theory that a COM
munity should rest its hopes upon
one railway company. 1 have long
thought that this is thu only policy that
will adapt the modern railway to modern
business methods and secure its best con-
tributions to the common people. Commu-
mites located on weak, isolated and depend
ent lines of railroad can take no place in
competition with others located on great
thoroughfares which have the advantage
of prompt and regular communication
with all parts of the country. Give to
such community a strong and vigorous
connection with one or more of the great
trunk lines, impose equitable rates, and it
will do moro towards bringing about a
greater degree of general prosperity than
any other business reform that can be in
troduced.

CLEVELAND, Dec. s.-The Longstreet
armory was burned this forenoon. The
fire broke out at 10:40 o'clock and quickly
spread throughout the building. A guam
tity of gunpowder and fixed ammunition
was stored In the building, which was a
large two-story brick. When the flames
reached the powder there came terrific
explosion which tumbled the walls into
the street. The flames communicated to
the central police station, and the prison
srs and records were removed. The fire
was prevented from spreading and the
police station was saved. Within an hour
the fire was under control. No persons
were injured. The entire loss on building
and contents is estimated stE$150, 900, on

MISSING ORATOR.
A Leading Prohibitionist's Sudden
Disappearance.

BANGOR, Maine, Dec. S.-Friends here
of volney B. Cushing, who is one of the
most noted prohibition orators and leaders
in the country, are greatly alarmed at his
sudden disappearance. His work for the
six months preceding the November cleo
ton was simply stupendous, and it is
feared that it resulted in temporary de-
rangement. Mr.. Gushing is thirty-six
years old, but has silvery white hair and
smooth face, which gives him striking
appearance. His family and friends are
very anxious to receive some notice of his
whereabouts.
Boston, Dec. 7.-Volney B. Cushing of
Bangor, Me-, who disappeared from
Clark's tavern last Tuesday and for whom
friends have since been anxiously hunting,
walked into the hotel late this afternoon
and stated that he had been visiting
friends and had just returned. He left
to- night for Maine, greatly amused over
the rumors which have been circulated re-
par1ipp his whereabouts.

Gossip About the Jury, Officers and
Reporters Interested in the Borden
Trial.
FALL RIVER, Mass Dec. S.-The latest
gossip concerning the Borden murders is
based on statements made by the grand
jury relating to the counter statement be-
tween Henry G.. Trickey and Detective
McHenry, one of whom WAS seeking mat
ter for a newspaper sensation and the
other fame in police circles. By tracing
an alleged understanding on the part of
Attorney Adams and Professor Wood, 1t
is said that Trickey tried to gain McHenry's
confidence by saying that Professor Wood
chad been fixed" by the defense; that
the detective communicated with the
Fall River police and endeav-
ored to impress them with the
truth of Trickey's statements. 1t is said
there were warm times in the jury room
growing out of sharp questions on the part
of one juror, who criticised Fall River po-
lice methods, and on the part of another
named O'Donnell, who was formerly in the
local police department.. At the time of
the Trickey-McHenry negotiations Counsel
Adams was ill with typhoid fever. 1t is
needless to say Professor Wood is not in
the fixing business. One of the jurors
had been talking about the case in the Of
flee of O local paper, according to state
ments printed by that paper tonight.
