DESPERATE RAIDERS.
Only the Fag End of a Revolution
Along the Rio Grande.

GALVESTON, Tex. Dec. 13. = Advices
from the Mexican border indicate that the
CARA outbreak is only the fag end of the
revolution. 1t is very doubtful if the con-
spirators really contemplate revolution.
They seem TO be bent mostly on plunder.
In the fight on the Mexican side, opposite
San Ygnacio, in which Captain SECURE. one
lieutenant and eight men were killed, the
house in which the troops were garrisoned
was burned over their heads. All their
horses were stolen, also large number Of
carbines and revolyers and considerable
ammunition. After the fight the bandits

NOT FAIRLY TRIED.
DIR. Briggs Enters Upon
His Defense.
AIM OF THE PROSECUTION.
To Get the Question Before a Higher
Tribunal the Accused Condescends
to Answer the Committee.
Special to TIE MoRNrse CALI

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The Briggs trial
was resumed to-day, and the galleries of
the church we're crowded. Among the
prominent people in the galleries was Mrs.
Cleveland The large attendance was due
to the fact that Briggs was to answer the
charges. He read his answer from a
printed pamphlet. He considered the
points OF the prosecuting committees argu-
ment, and asserted that the lines of prose-
cution adopted by them were Illegal aud
dlshonorable. Much of McCo0k's argu-
ment was devoted to the exposition of the
fourth and seventh charges, which had been
ruled cut by the presbytery. BY thus de-
lying the preebytery, the prosecution

ing the case to higher court hereafter
Tor argument in support of the truth OF the
charges. The defendant argued on the
evidence adduced by the prosecuting COM
nlttee TO sustain charges /, 4, and 6. and
these charges he said should be thrown out.
There had been no proof offered yet that
be had been guilty of heretical teachings,
ana IL this were civil court he should
stop right here and ask that the case be dis
missed. But recognizing the fact that this
trial was merely for the purpose of carrying
these charges to the higher ecclesiastical
tribunal he was forced TO consider them on
their merits.
Briggs then proceeded 10 take up sue
cessively the charges and specifications and
give categorical response in his argument,
which was remarkable for wide research.
profound erudition and close reasoning.
He first called attention to the preliminary
principles regulating all trials for heresy
In the Presbyterian church In the United
States. which, he said, had been ntirely
disregarded by the prosecution in its argu-
ments upon the amended charges and speci-
fcations The Presbyterian law requires
that tile charges shall set forth that certain
teachings are in lrreconcilable conflict with
certain doctrines which are essential and
necessary TO the integrity of the Westmin-
ster standards and to the proper reading of
the Scriptures. As to dangerous errors, not
in irrecOncilable conflict with essential and
necessary articles Of the Westminster con-
fession. this presbytery had not the con-
stitutional right TO deal with them.
DR.. Briggs next considered the question
as to whether the Bible was the only fouu-
dation Of divine authority. aud replied to
parts and together.
At this point the defendant stopped read
ing for the day.

SrlITH SUSPENDED.
There Was Close Vote i'm the Cincin-
natl Presbytery,

hdt FfSSUytSFy.
CINCINNATI, Dec Is - The Cincinnati
Presbylery, by vote OF 81 to 27, as nnofh-
cialIy reported. has pronounced agains.
Rev. DR.. y. p. Smith. as follows:
"Dr Smith is suspended from the min
istry of the Presby terian church until such
time as he shall make manifest to the salts
faction of the presbytery his remuneration
OF the errors he has been teaching. and ul-
Ill It shall be found that he has holy and
solemn purpose no longer to teach or
propagate them"
The majority of the committee favored
rebuke, but by the close vote already given
the decision was in favor Of his suspension
from the ministry.
The aeGuittal on the first charge and the
closeness of the vote ON the others and on
the sentence are taken as good reasons why
Professor Smith should appeal to the Ohio
Synod and to the General Assembly, but on
the other hand it is said to be known that
the feeling OF the synod is such tina. an ap-
peal would be vain, except as a step toward
reaching the General Synod.
There is deep feeling in the Pres5y terian
church over the progress and result of the
trial. and many see in it the opening wedge
for division of the church.
Tomorrow morning the presbytery will
meet for the purpose Of approving the
record and OF passing sentence upon the
convicted member.
Dr. Smith said tonight that he did not in
tend to let the matter rest here. He SAYS
he Will appeal the case to the synod, which
meets next September. and in the mean
time he will continue in his professional
chair at Lane Seminary

firms in many particulars what already has

sequences OF his connection with the Pan

sums for the company, and the Panama
investigating committee Is now trying to
learn TO whom the money was paid and for
what services.
