BR|GGS'S |! CHAMPION.
A New York Pastor Speaks
In His Behalf.
SAYS THE DOCTOR IS RIGHT
And Hopes That He and His Friends
Will Continue Steady and True.

NEW YORK, May 29-Dr. Q. s. Har.
rover, pastor of st. Luke's NJ. Il. church,
took up the cudgels in behalf of DIR. Briggs
and the latter's friends in sermon
which he preached to large congregation
last night.
1.-THE duty of the Briggs men," was the
subject of his sermon. DIR. narrower said:
1T is not with view of giving advice,
but to express to him the sympathy Of
others not Presbyterians, that intend to
speak of DIR. Briggs and his sympathizers
at the time. To US
DIR. Briggs stands For q Real Bible
that is In our hands today. He stands for
it with enthusiastic confidence and with
the very highest knowledge Of scholar
ship.
when pressed hard many Of the de.
tenders of orthodoxy have been IN the
habit during the last generation Of hiding
from attack behind the so-called originals
of Scripture, the first autographs But
there is an orthodoxy that is content to
take the Scriptures as we have them, to
find in them ample evidence Of the agency
Of God in giving man equally ample evil
denoe of the agency of God In applying
them to the personal life. 1t has really be-
come question whether we should have
any Bible left il we have to apply to 1t the
arbitrary tests which some of its defenders
try to force us to.
Suppose we can find prophecy writ
ten by one man but ascribed to another,
must we at once surrender all thought of
the agency of God, because Of such an in
significant error as thisi
Suppose we find a dozen indications that
the pentateuch as we have Il and as we
alone know about il was written hun
dreds of years after Moses was dead, must
we at once surrender all ideas of inspira-
tion in its Suppose we find
David Called q Perfect Man
in the Scriptures and have ourselves very
positive opinion that he was far from be-
ing such; suppose we find prophecies as
sociated with the life of the Messiah which
evidently were never fulfilled were purely
fguratve and doubtless, never will be full
filled in any other sense than the most
figurative one, must we deny this or at
once doubt the reality of the Divine in
spirationf No, it Is for broad under
standing of the Scriptures, more dis
eliminating Judgment of the worth of in
spration and a surer foundation of our
faith than any such poor criticisms as
these that Dr. Briggs is standing for.
LET us, then, who sympathize with DR..
Briggs and who thank him for the noble
and patient service he has done the cause
of Christian knowledge, indulge the hope
that
This Patience VIII Not Fail Him.
We must remember that his critics are
honest and devoted Christians. They are
simply misguided in the tests which they
apply to the Scripture and sound Or
thodoxy.
at is humiliating to be brought to judg-
ment by men like these, but according to
the constitution of the church nothing
else is possible, and therefore those who
enlighten the church must do so under
these disabilities and not lose patience.
"Again, let us hope that DR.. Briggs and
his friends will continue steady and true
to their light"

DESPITE the decidedly tight money
market at many points and other signs
of depression, Dun's trade review for
last week says: actual business is
surprisingly large for the season, and yet
fears about the future are also large.
Congressional uncertainties cause the
fears, but the prosperity and the needs
of the people make business what it is,
and never before has the Distribution of
products to III been larger than
it has been thus far this year. Hence
industries are remarkably prosperous;
the volume Of trade measured by clear
ings in January was nearly l. per cent
larger than in any previous year, and the
railway movement shows a great increase
in the tonnage transported. Yet it is
probably safe to say that rarely, except
in Il time of panic, has business been
more cautiously and c~onservatively reg
ulatcd. Monetary uncertainties are eX-
cuscd by the continued outgo of gold.
but the passage of the anti-option bill
by the senate has had no effect upon the
markets as yet"
