no reason why they should continue il in exist
ence except the fact that it was Pres byterian.
The moderator in his sermon Sunday had told
them In the words of st. Paul that they
were to hold fast to the faith. Yet he did
not believe that st. Paul meant by
that that they should hold fast to the word
Presbyterian. He supplemented the appeal OF
the report for more generous contributions.
He referred to a synod in New Jersey and a
synod in Indiana which last year not only sup
ported all their weak churches, but gave more
than they ever had before to the treasury of the
board of home missions. He urged that the
synods in the older states should take up such
work The board was $4,000 in debt. He
suggested that they might raise the sum now
and send the board away free of debt. There
was. he said, in the assembly an elder from the
far west who would tell them that II the re-
naming s34 200 was raised at this time, or
within three months, he would give $1,000.

TERRIBLY INCREASING.

At no time in the history of New York city have
there been SO many deaths from pneumonia as
now. The official figures show that nearly twice
as many deaths from this cause are occurring than
for the last five years. This is something terrible.
Dr.. John I. Maggie, registrar of vital statistics,
says that this increase Is due to the influence of
grip. He says that grip may be called epidemic
Just now and that in the majority of cases grip is
vital, contributing cause to pneumonia and all
dangerous pulmonary troubles. 1t this time Of
the year 40 we are changing over from winter
to spring. e IS always low order of vitality; a
reaction frUSe the strains of the season. The
blood does not flow full nor rapidly; the strength
is less For this reason grip has much better
chance than at any other season.
This is time Of year when people need to be
careful and too much Importance cannot be placed

POLICE SUPERINTENDENT.
What Major Moore says of the Recent Meet
ing I'm Chicago.


Maj Moore has returned from Chicago, where
be went to attend the meeting of police SUPER
intendents last week, and where he received
the honor of being elected one of the vice
presidents of the new organization. Chief
Seavey of Omaha was elected president and
Henry c. Carr of Grand Rapids, Mich, Was
chosen secretary and treasurer.
Maj. Moore is fully in accord with the objects
OF the new association and thinks that with the
cooperation pledged more effective work will
be accomplished.
A number Of subjects were formulated for
discussion at the next meeting. which will be
held IN st. Louis next year. among them being
What should be the uniform practice OF ar
resting on kilograms for felonies committed in
other states?"
This is perhaps the most important question
to be discussed great inconvenisrcs is often
the result in some jurisdictions, notably the
District OF Columbia. where the police are al
most pc ~eriess TO make an arrest and deten-
ton on such a showing.
In some states, however there are 20 be had
what are known as fugitive warrants" and
something OF this kind Maj Moore thinks
should be had in all jurisdictions. With a
uniform law of that sort in addition to other
laws the major thinks crime would be greatly
reduced.
regulations and equipments, the manner OF Sc
lecting detective bureau OF police depart
ment, the rights Of officer in making an
arrest without warrant and other questions of
Interest to preseryers OF the peace. Among
them are the following:
What should be necessary TO constitute an
arrest for vagrancy?
Shall all policemen and officers be residents
and taxpayers in the city in which they hold
Office?
Shall the police officers below the rank OF
sergeant be classified?
should the board of health be governed and
controlled by the police?
Should there be adopted and carried ont q
uniform system OF Identification with a cen
trail bureau of information?
There was a breezy discussion in the con-
vention when the question of admitting the
Pinkertons was raised, and they were admitted
to honorary membership.
Upon the whole Maj. Moore thinks that the
forming of the association and its harmoniou.
cooperation will be death blow TO criminals
and will make the police service more effective
all over the country.

of the united Christian commission in an
effort to better the morals of the armv 1t
was recommended that Revs. DIR. Bartlett and
Wynkoop of this city and Mr.. George Beebe-
son of baltimore be the representatives Of the
assembly on the commission for the coming
year. The report was adopted.
Dr. Roberts, the stated clerk. announced that
he had received the reply from Union Theologi-
cal Seminary in reference to the compact of
1870
On motion of Elder Sterry of New York the
reply was referred to the committee on theolog-
ical semnaries.
The assembly then took a recess until 23O
pm.
The Afternoon Session.
The church was crowded for the afternoon
session and many were unable to obtain admit
lance. Scores OF people stood up in the
aisles, against the walls. The Briggs case, of
course, was the attraction. DR.. Briggs himsel +
appeared in the church just before the as
sembly called to order. He took
a seat at one of the clerks desks below the
platform. DR.. Birch, chairman of the prose-
cutting committee of the New York
presbytery, sat within the chancel rail
on the opposite side. Many men
near by came over and shook hands with Dr.
Briggs. 1t was his first prominent appearance
in the assembly. He was present short time
yesterday, but occupied seat in a rear pew
and his presence was not known.
The moderator raped promptly at $50
O'Clock and hushed the murmur of voices that
ran through the large assembly.
In his opening prayer the moderator invoked
God to inspire them with the proper spirit in
meeting the issues before them and in conduct
ing the solemn and sober discussions before
them.
AN OFFICIAL sTESo6RAPHER.
The stated clerk asked permission to employ
an official stenographer.
motion to that effect was made and carried.
Elder McDougall moved that the case now to
come up take precedence OF all others.
The motion was carried.
Rev. DIR. Smith suggested that all expressions
OF approval or disapproval OF proceedings, ap-
plause or otherwise, be checked.
DELIBERATIvE HEARING.
The moderator thereupon made speech urg-
ing the spectators and the members of the as
sembly to observe quiet He urged members to
show that they had the manhood and
courage to deliberate this question deliberate
it. He would be mortified at hearing any
manifestations of disapproval OF of any other
character.
Rev. DIR. Geo. d. Baker, chairman Of the
judicial committee, then took the floor. He
stood on the platform beside the moderator's
chair and addressed the assembly.
OH. BAKER PRESENTS THE REPORT
In presenting the report DR.. Baker said

volved upon them in the reference to them of

power would have been compelled to bite the
dust. The Presbyterian Church, he said, should
give heartfelt and unstinted support to the
cause of home missions.
MEXIcANs AND ISFIDELIrY.
Rev. J. j. Gilchrist OF New Mexico, a mis-
sionary, in speaking to the subject. said that
they needed in New Mexico six men thoroughly
educated and qualified to go through the
country to superintend the work. Among the
Mexicans it was not Roman Catholicism they
had to encounter. The Roman Catholic Church
was losing its power there. What they had to
meet and fight against was infdelity. He said
that the work of denomination which had
been carried on by uneducated men had fallen
to pieces.
Rev. James V. Mulligan Of Portland, Oreg.,
spoke of the difficulties encountered by mis-
sionaries, owing to financial methods of the
board and the system OF paying salaries to mis-
sionaries quarterly. He spoke in behalf OF
himself and other missionaries who had over
tured the assembly to establish system OF
monthly payment, which it was claimed would
relieve the missionaries OF much Of their en-
barrassments.
Rev. S. NJ. Morten, DID,, of Mattoor, ILL.,, a
member of the home mission committee, called
on Elder Jack of CalifoIn to speak.
Elder Jack in the course of his remarks said
he came from q land which had more than one
third of the Cinnamon IN the United States.
They had learned one thing from them. Every
year when their New Year came the Cinnamon

would have to consider how to turn his money
to account in some other way.
Rev. John Redpath of Boyne Falls, Mich,
also spoke in favor Of the monthly payment
plan.
THE RECOMMENDATIONS ADOPTED.
The recommendations made by the com
mittee were then read again and approved BY
vote of the assembly.
DIR. Roberts announced that gentleman
named James Henry Smith OF Boston wanted
to subscribe $3.50 to paying the debt, provided
the whole sum was raised.
