CRITICISM AND THE BIBLE.

\ Comprehensive Statement OF What 1t Is
by Rev. DIR. Q. +. Grammar in Amer
lean Catholic Quarterly Review.
Criticism" is method Of investiga-
tiOn for the purpose of ascertaining the
truth. In every department Of science it
has its place. It inquiries into the char
acter and reliability OF all sources Of in
formation. 1t investigates the value Of
traditional opinions. 1t is a sitting or
winnowing process, instituted for the epur-
pose Of separating the wheat from the
chaff, truth from error, fact from fiction.
1t is necessary for all true progress, not
only in Biblical studies, but in all other
branches Of knowledge. Is there any
reason why the general principles Of crit
icism employed in all other branches Of
knowledge should not be applied to sacred
scriptureP Does the fact that scripture
is sacred exempt it from the same critical
Investigations to which all literature and
all history have been subjected9 Why
should we fear, in the case of scripture,
the most rigorous analysis? Ii scripture
is the word Of God, it win come out of
the fiery ordeal unscathed. To hold the
contrary would betray a want of faith
in Gods word.
By higher Biblical criticism is meant
critical inquiry into the divine author
ity of sacred scripture, which depends on
its inspiration; into its ecclesiastical
authority, which depends on its cannon
icity; and into its human authority,
which results from the genuinity, integ-
rity and crelibility of the sacred books.
1t is the business Of the higher critic to
analyze the documents with which he has
to deal, to determine their value, relative
age and general credibility. II such is
the meaning of the word, surely no valid
objection can be made against this sci
ence ITSELF For, thus understood, the
exercise Of criticism is not only allOwa-
BILE, but even desirable. The best way to
know what thing is is to learn how it
came about, how it came into existence.
There is no reason why Christian should
be afraid Of the most searching inquiry
into the human authorship, date Of COM
position and meaning Of the several
books Of sacred scripture, provided, Of
course, that the critic is not misled by
false principles in his researches.

The Santa Fe Moves No Trains This
Side of Las Vegas,

CHICAGO. June 30.-The Santa Fe off,
cials reported to-day that no trains are
now moving through Las Vegas. The
management sent passenger west from
La Junta yesterday. but at Trinidad it was
taken in charge by mob, and the engi-
neer taken down and threatened. The fire.

The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers met here this afternoon. and it is un-
derstood that they indorsed the action Of

meeting will be held tonight, however, TO
further consider the matter.
The Southern Pacific overland from
New Orleans arrived here tonight at
o'clock with the usual number of coaches
and Pullman cars. but all hands struck as
soon as the train pulled into the depot. At
meeting of the Southern Pacific engineers
and train-hands held tonight it was de-
cided to indorse the action OF the Ameri-
can Railway Uuion and abide by the in
structions Of the union as issued from
Chicago.
Governor Markham telephoned from
Pasadena tonight that the rumor started
in San Francisco to the effect that General
Manager Tuwne had asked that State
troops be ordered to Oakland to preserve
the peace was without foundation.
SAN DIEGO. June 30.-A mass-meeting
of citizens was held at the plaza this even
ing, in esDonse to a call of the Mayor. at
which speeches were made expressive Of
indignation on account of the needless
severity of the railway blockade owing to
the absolute suspension of traffic by the
companies. In the resolutions adopted the
principle OF arbitration was indorsed as a
just and equitable basis for adjusting all
diff frrences, and the extension of the pres
ent trouble was ascribed to determina-
tion on the part of the railway corpora
tions to support the side OF capital in this
contest without consulting the interests OF
the people at large or considering the loss
of perishable property and ripeniDg fruit
crops, and a firm expression was given
that the force of public opinion should at
| once be brought to bear directly upon
railroad corporations and thus indirectly
upon the Pullman company. to the effect
that they will be compelled to arbitrate
unsettled differences with railroad labor
ers, which would result in Immediately
setting in motion the wheels OF commerce.
The situation locally is unchanged. Not a
wheel is moving except on the purely local
roads, on which Pullman cars have not
been in use.

THE CONDUCTORS MEET.
Will Not Affiliate With the American
Railway Union.

VIII mol Affiliate Win Inc american
Railway Union.
The Ell CAPTAIN Division No. 115. Inde-
pendent Order of Railroad Conductors,
held a meeting last evening at 35 Eddy
street, for the purpose of discussing mat
ters appertahing TO the strike.
There was an unusually large attend
ance, and judging from cheers and rounds
of applause which came from within, it is
evident that some soul-stirrng speeches
were being delivered which served to
arouse general enthusiasm.
Messrs. JOost and Watkinson, represent
ing the American Railway Union, ap-
peared before the meeting with view Of
soliciting the cooperation of the conduc-
tors in the fight. Their pleas, however,
evidently failed to meet with the approval
of the majority, as it was given out later
that the order had decided to refuse the
request as long as harmony prevailed In
their department.
II was long after midnight when the
session adj jlurned.
The rumor that the order intended
affiIiating with the American Railway
Union was emphatcally denied by the
secretary, who said that the conductors
would remain independent of any other
organization, and that in case a personal
grievence should arise between them selves
and their EMPLOYERS they would ask the as
sstance of none but their own members.

MEYERS MANIFESTO.
The Engineers Chairman Defines
Their Position.

+. j. Meyers. chairman of the Brother
hood OF Locomotive Engineers on this
system OF the Southern Pacific last night
expressed himself as follows regarding
the strike:
''The organization known as the Broth
erhood of Engineers has not been placed
right before the public by any of the news
papers during this existing difficulty. Tho
brotherhood is in DO way concerned in the
present strike and has not indorsed the ar
ton of any other organization engaged in
carrying it on. It's members are ready TO
do their work as engineers, regardless of
what others may be doing. They will not,
however. step outside of the line OF their
duties as usually performed under ordi-
nary conditions to take the place and do
the work of any one engaged in the strike.
All this is strictly in accordance with the
law of the order and under the approval OF
its chiefs"

STRANUE IF TRUEs
1t Is Said That the Railroad Com
panies Want to Lose.


Los ANGELES, June 30.-About o. clock
this afternoon train made up OF an en-.
CINE, mailcar and day coach pulled ut of
the Santa Fe depot without obstrution
The train had "scab" engineer, fireman
and conductor. The passenger coach con-
tanned no passengers other than twelve
Deputy Marshals. 1t Is stated that their
destln alton Is Barstow and that they will
bring down from Barstow all the cars that
they can haul and also all passengers who
are stalled there. The strikers did not
seem to regard the movement of the train
as having any bearing on the situation. and
many expressed themselves glad to see he
trains at Barstow come In, and especially
the passengers.
Judge Ross has prepared an opinion in
which he contends that the employees of
the Santa Fe are violating the law in re-
United States mails should be carried SO
long as they consider themselves employees
of the aforesaid road. He therefore in
tends issuing an order compelling the men
to perform all OF their regular and accus-
toned duties so long as they remain in the
employ of the Santa Fe Company.
A new feature IN the strike came to light
this afternoon, which may prove of interest
TO the striking faction. It is we'll known
in railroad circles that the patents on the
Pullman cars have expired, and it is
question of only a few years until the
railroad companies may manufacture and
propel sleei ers of similar construction
and build. The railroads see in the pres
emf state of affairs n nosslhility of appuI
ling their contracts with the Pullman
Company. proceeding which every rail-
road official In the country would hail with
