FOUR PRINCIPLES ACCEPTED
CLERGY1TEN FORM THE LEAGUE
OF CATHOLIC UNITY.

1t is the Outcome of Those who Met TO
Study-They Decide to send Out a Letter
to Clergymen and Laity of the Country
Defining the Purposes of the League.
New York, June 16.-A number of
clergynen from the seven leading Prot
estant denominations met here few
days ago and organized themselves into
the League Of Catholic unity. The Rev.
Prof. Charles w. Shields of Princeton
was elected president and Rev. DR..
Langdon of Providence secretary and
treasurer.
The league is the outcome of the de-
1iberations of clergymen who met to
study the subject of Christian unity.
1t was decided to issue circular letter
to the clergy and laity of the country
defining the purpose of the institution
and the principles upon which it was
formed. This letter in part says:
without detaching ourselves from
the Christian bodies to which we sew
orally belong or intending to compro-
mise our relations thereto, or seeking
to interfere with other efforts for Chris
tian unity, We accept as worthy of the
most thoughtful consideration the four
principles of church unity proposed by
the bishops of the Protestant Episcopal
church at Chicago in 1886, and amended
by the Lambeth conference in 1888, as
follows:
a. The holy scriptures of the Old and
New Testmanets, as Containing all
things necessary to salvation" and as
being the rale and ultimate standard Of
faith.
(2) The Apostles Creed, as the bap-
tisrnal symbol, and the Nicene Creed
as the sufficient statement of the Chris
tian faith.
(3) The two sacraments ordained by
Christ Himself-baptism and the sup
per Of the Lord, ministered with unfail-
ing use Of Christ's word of institution
and of the elements ordained by Him.
az The historic episcopate, locally
adapted in the methods of its admins
tration to the varying needs of the ma
tions and peoples called of God into the
unity of His church.

'The candidacy of Senator w. b. AL
