any extraordinary authority over the disciples.
In favor of Peters supremacy we have three OF
tude OF passages pointing to his presence.
Against him we have absolutely nothing except
the grim determination not to acknowledge
him. As ever. the gates of hell war upon him.
Around him the battle RACES hottest. "Away
with him. "Crucify him. "Crucify him. is
his fate as it was the fate of his Master. But
ened that he should not do in our days the
mighty works he wrought in the days OF our
fathers.
B. THE SUCCESSOR OF PETER.
DR.. Wendte declares that even If Peter had
been invested with authority there is nothing
TO show that this authority passed to his sue
cessors.
/ showed that the church was to last for all
time and therefore that the headship of the
church should continue for all time.
DR.. Wendte made no attempt to back up his
original demand.
C. PETER BISHOP OF ROME.
DR.. Wendte committed himself to the state
ment: "Peter was never Bishop in Rome. In
deed, the unanimous tradition of the church
fathers designates one Linus as the first Roman
Bishop
/ quoted two fathers from the second and
third centuries to show that they held that
Peter was Bishop of Rome.
DR.. Weudte says my articles are becoming
very wearisome."
If had quoted all the fathers who in the
first four centuries testify to Peters episcopate
at Rome Dr. Wendte's complaint might be well
founded.
D. PETERS STAY IN ROME.
DR.. Wendte tried to prove that Peter could
not nave been III Rome for twenty-five years.
l reminded him that it was not claimed that
Peter remained all the time in Rome.
Dr. Wendte retorts by calling me a "cuttle-
fish,"
E. PETER IN ROME.
DR.. Wendtes last and triumphant conclusion
was: "Peter was in all probability never in
Rome at all.''
To this 1 replied that all Protestants of any
pretensions to learning are on our side. Some
OF them go SO far as to say that it is shame
for Protestants to admit that Protestants ever
denied Peters visit to Rome.
DR.. Wendte replies that he is appalled, at the
virulence of my verbosity, or as he calls it, my
''caeoethes loquendi.''
CONCLUSION.
In this review of the first part of the contro-
yersy have tried to set forth the arguments on
both sides. That DR.. Wendte does not make q
better showing arises solely from the fact that
silly stories about Father Finnegans instead OF
meeting my arguments. | do not care to fol-
low his example and let my pencil run riot in
advising him not to attempt intellectual pur-
suits or in informing him that he is behind the
age or impressing on him that he is engaged
in lost cause or in inditing similar humbug.

ing visible head and visible mem bers.
She alone even processes that infallibiIity
which Father Ramm showed to have been
logically involved in the command to
teach revealed truth. She alone is held
together by this living principle of unity.
In word, she alone possesses the features
OF the church which Christ founded in the
beginning.
The basis for organic reunion between
the Catholic church on the one hand and
the Greek and Protestant denominations
on the other are-frst, compromise, and
second, submission, individual or corpo-
rate. compromise was shown to be i'm
possible, since the Catholic church cannot
make concessions i'll matters of doctrine.
So there remains only submission to the
Catholic church. This souncLs harsh and
tyrannical, but it is not so. fer submission
Is simply submission to Christ's church.
The speaker concluded in these words:
Practically what are we TO de-? Our duty lies
IN the present. First, let US on both sides try
TO understand each others beliefs Let us be
as as unolased as possible in appreciating the
tenets of those who differ from US. Let us give
one another credit for honesty, sincerity and
virtue where these are not evidently wanting.
inen let us insist more upon our common her
itage; on those things wherein we agree and
Tess on those wherein we differ. The contro-
Vers1ai spirit, am persuaded, belongs to the
past, the expositiye and constructive to the
present and the future. The body of truth
which all of us possess in common provides us
naturally with common standpoint from
N,a. Wnich TO look out upon the. field wherein our
differences lie. But evidently the more nearly
identical the position from which we seyerallv
regard this field the more likely will be the
vanishing of these differences.
Secondly-We must live as nearly perfect
Christian lives as possible. The apprehension
and acceptance of religious truth Is a moral
matter, and therefore obviously depe nds yery
much upon our personality. The same evi-

A Willy FARMER.
Joseph Bannister of Livermoro Arrested
for Obtaining Money by False
Pretenses.


Pretenses.
J. W. Bannister, farmer at Livermore,
was brought from there to the City Prison
last night by Policeman John O'Connor
and booked on the charge of obtaining
money by false prerenses. The complain
ing witness is W. F. Healy, real estate
agent, % Kearny street.
About month ago Bannister called at
Healy's Office and talked to him about pur-
chasing some land. He told Healy he had
$4,000 on deposit in the Hibernia Bank, but
at present he did not care TO withdraw any
of it, that he also had some money in tn q
Commercial Bank of Los Gatos. He
wanted some ready money and if Healy
would advance him $140 he would give hi m
his check on the Los Gatos bank. Heal y
was only too glad to oblige likely pur-
chaser and gave him a check for $40, re-
ceiying Bannister's check for the same
amount.
Heay's check was cashed by Bannister
and he never saw him again. Bannister's
check was sent to the Los Gatos bank and
returned marked "no account"

TRAGEDY AT A PICNIC.
Row Boat Upset by Chute Boat Near KnoxyiIIe-Three Bruised and Drown
 ed, and One Injured.

Knoxville, July S0.-Three people were killed or drowned and a fourth seriously injured in an accident at Lake Ottos- see, an outing resort three miles from here, at clock this afternoon. The dead are:
 Charles Perrin, aged IS.
 Walter Wright, aged 21.
 Miss Carrie P. Hibbs. aged +.
 The injured is Mrs. Forester, a widow lady of Alabama, who was chaperonng the party.
 The party were on the lake in light row boat and came in the course of the chute boats.
 A chute boat loaded with ten people dashed down the incline at a terrific rate of speed and hit the water with much force. It rebounded into the air and on the second bound it struck the row boat with its occupants. The crash upset the row boat and sent the passengers into the water and down to their death, with the exception of Mrs. Forester, who came to the surface and caught on to the up- turned boat, where she clung until as- sistance arrived. Expert divers were soon put to work and the bodies recov- cred. An examination showed that the young people had been terribly bruised, perhaps by the chute boat when 1t struck them. The unfortunate ones were all members of the Broad Street Methodist Episcopal church, south. which was hay ings it's annual picnic at the lake when the accident occurred.

Activity in Grain Shipments Is the Conspicu- ous Feature in the South-lndustria
 Enterprises and Arrangements.

Baltimore, July 3O.-The Manufactur- spicuous feature in the business inter- eStS of the south at present is the re- markable activity in the shipments of grain from Kansas and other western states to gulf ports for exportation. Large contracts are being made for transporta tion and western roads are re- ported in some cases as being short of sufficient rolling stock to meet the de- mand for grain bound to the gulf. At Charleston, s. C., a rice storage ware house is to be turned into a grain ele- vator with a capacity of 200, 900 bushels. This will enable Charleston to better compete for handling grain intended for export.
