Injunction Restraining Fair Direc-

Injunction Restraining Fair Direc-
tors From Closing on Sunday.
CHICAGO, May 30.-In the legal pro-
ceedings brought against the worlds
fair directory to compel an open Sun
day and to restrain public admission on
that day, the former gained the first
victory. Judge Stein issued tenn
porary injunction restraining the direc-
tors from closing tho gates on Sunday.
His ruling was made in accordance
with the prayer of a bill filed by Charles
w. Clingman on behalf of himself as
stockholder in the Exposition company
and as citizen.
Judge STEMS Decision.
The decision holds in substance that
the park commissioners had no power
to concede to corporation more than
the usufruct of the South park ground.
The contention Of the intervening petit
toner, c. Fl. Howard, that to open the
fair on Sunday is against the law of
the land and the act Of congress of
April 25 1890, is dismissed with the
statement that it has not been proven
that there is anything in that act which
overthrows any of the existing laws of
the State of Illinois, and the laws of
Illinois are not affected,

OPENED THE GATES
PEOPLE SEE THE FAIR ONE
SUNDAY AT LEAST.

Over Hundred Thousand in Attend
ance-Illumination in the Evening.
Many of the State Buildings Closed.
Appeal For lower Railroad Rates.
WoRLDs FAIR GROUNDS, May 2S.-
One hundred and twenty-five thousand
people, after week of toll, came to the
worlds fair grounds Sunday and with
souls freed from care drank in inspiring
music and feasted their eyes upon the
artistic and natural beauties cf the
White City, while their minds were i'm
proved by studying the works of genius
and industry. It was the first open
Sunday and was success.
The people began coming into the
grounds early. All means of transpor-
tation brought their quotas and from
the steamer piers and the railroads came
long lines of people aud by o'clock at
least 80, eco were in the enclosure. After
dark the grounds were lighted up and
this together with other
Features OF the Illumination
attracted still more and when the
crowds were about ready to go home,
conservative estimate placed their num-
Der for the day and evening at 125. 600.
1t was an orderly, well dressed crowd
which evidently was of the opinion
that it had already been kept away
from its property altogether too long
and they took possession in the name of
the "toiler." The music during the
day was of the elevating character and
the bandsstands were surrounded by
large crowds.
Some State Buildings Closed.
Sunday opening was frowned upon,
however, in the north end of the park,
where the American state buildings are
grouped. The multitude of visitors did
not throng the state circle and the few
thousands who passed that way were
not disappointed, apparently, to find
many of the buildings closed. Missouri,
Delaware, New York, Virginia, West |
Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Dakota,
New Hampshire. Rhode Island, New
Jersey, Connecticut, Maryland and
Massachusetts, were among the build
ings which the people obtained only an
outside view of. Utah had the closed

tion ''Come on Monday"

Arguments Regun in the Celebrated
Briggs Case.

Briggs Case.
WASHINGTON. May 3O.--The greatest
ecclesiastical trial of modern times, as
it is termed, was begun during the day
in the New York Avenue Presbyterian
church, when DR.. Briggs, the Union
seminary professor, faced his accusers
and his 500 judges. The general as
sembly of the Presbyterian church in
the United States sat as high court.
The court represented nearly 100000
Presbyterians in this country, who rec
ognize the supreme authority of the
general assembly in ecclesiastical mat
ters. The issue is one which large
portion of the the church and large
majority of the general assembly evi.
IDENTIFY regard as one of the gravest that
has ever arisen in the church. To their
minds the
Most Serious Consequences
will ensue if the church does not,
through it's highest authority, pro-
nounce anathema against DR.. Briggs,
who is accused of denying the iner-
rancy of Holy Scripture and teaching
as true doctrines which they consider
contradictory of scripture and of the
confession of faith to which he sub
scribed when he was ordained as min
lister. There was large attendance at
the church, people crowding into the
galleries and even encroaching ON the
space set aside for the commissioners.
The proceedings. however, were not at
all lively, for the arguments made were
exceedingly formal in character. The
principal argument for the prosecution
was made by Rev. Joseph J. Lampe, D.
D.. who finished in the afternoon, hav-
ing spoken three hours and a quarter.
Professor Briggs then began his answer,
to which seven hours had been allotted,
and continued it at the evening session,

ment Colonel McCook will close for the
