The attention of Rev. DR.. Rocker sec-
rotary to Archbishop MartinelH, was this
afternoon called by a Star reporter to a
story recently cabled to this country from
Rome to the effect that when the pope
found the name of Archbishop Keane at
the head of the list Of those selected bv
the council held some time ago in the
United States as first, second and third
choice. respectively, for the vacant see OF
New Orleans, his holiness struck the name
OF the archbishop from the list
DR.. Rocker pronounced the story told in
the caDlegram as untrue in every particu-
lar, and said that Archbishop Keane re-
moved his own name from the list. and re-
FUSED to allow 1t to be considered in con-

CHANGES IN SENTIMENT
Baptism Discussed by Members of the Baptist
Con ,ress.
INNER sion Not Deemed by All q Pre-.
requisite to the Lords Supper
Old Doctrine Opposed.

CHICAGO, November It's Baptism a
Prerequisite to the Lords Supper" was
the topic discussed last night at the fif-
tenth annual meeting CT the Baptist con-
gress, now being held in this city. The
position taken by DR.. o. P. Clifford Of Buff
falo and DR.. r. H. Conwell of Philadel-
phia, two of the most eminent divines in
the denomination. indicated a decided
change of sentiment among Baptists on
the subject of communion. Never perhaps
in the history of the Baptist denomination
has so important doctrine been stricken
down on such short notice.
Theodore NJ. Banta Of Brooklyn declared
that he had been a Baptist for forty years
and for sixteen years was a close commu-
nionist
Il have studied the question carefully
said Mr.. Banta. in conclusion, land 1 have

tracts of the American Baptist Publication
Society, and as a consequence of my read

posed to close communion. What is the
purpose of the Lords supper? To bring to
our remembrance the DEATH burial and
resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus
Christ To do this it is not necessary that
the communicate should first be immersed
or baptized. 1t Is not Christian, and when
we insist to the contrary We mistake the
shadow for the substance
Rev Dr. O. P. Clifford of Buffalo said:
We challenge the assumption that the
New Testament does furnish us with the
model of the church; that the model of the
church was finished in Corinth or Rome or
Ephesus; that the practice of the church
in the first century is a common law. and
all departures from the practice SAVIOR of
sedition and anarchy. The essense of the
Lords supper is in the power to discern
the Lords body. Immersed men who fail
to discern the Lords body don't observe
the Lords supper. Unimmersed men who
do discern the Lords body do observe the
Lords supper"
DR.. Clifford quoted literally from Dr. A.
II. Strongs article on THE Unconscious
Assumption of Communion Poemics," and
reached the conclusion that it is often
the serious misfortune of able and honest
men that they unwittingly argue upon
premises which. when formally stated,
they would unhesitatingly repudiate
DR.. Cornwell of Philadelphia took the
same position. He declared that not only
was baptism not prerequisite to the
Lords supper, but, on the contrary, it was

Annotated Editorials From The Star
From the Norfolk Landmark


The Washington Evening Star, which is
always deliberate in its judgment and calm
in expressing it, realizes, along with many
other contemporaries Of high standing, that
the game of foot ball now played is
brutal and dangerous. In the course of a
long and well-considered article, The Star
declares:
1.-The logical result of the present tenden-
cy of the game of foot ball has been
reached in the introduction in the Georgia
legislature of two bills. one prohibiting
that game henceforth in the state and the
other legalizing prize fighting. ." The
prohibition of the sport by legislation is
rnwise. though it is amply provoked by the
tragedies of the past few seasons. Just to
the same degree would 1t be unwise to per-
init prize fghting on a legal basis merely
because foot ball is considered brutal and
dangerous. ~
Like our Washington contemporary we
very much doubt the wisdom of prohibiting
foot ball by legislative enactment; but that
Is the inevitable doom of the game in every
state in the Union unless the players, in
dependently and voluntarily, so modify the
rules as to eliminate the most dangerous
and brutal features. II the legislature of
Georgia legalizes prize fighting. its action in
doing SO will be due largely, as The Star
says: to the effect produced upon public
opinion by the fatal accident to a Georgian
foot ball player. We do not believe that
the people of the state will allow such a
law to remain long on the statute books
1t does seem that prize fighting is a much
m1lder sport than intercollegiate foot ball
of the existing PERIOD and confused reali-
cation of this remarkable fact Is what ac-
counts for the sentiment in favor of legal
1zing pugilism. But Georgia will do wrong
If she lets in the prize fighters, neverthe-
less.

The Cost of Bad Roads.
From the Richmond State

At the meeting of the South Carolina
Good Roads Association, the other day. an
address was delivered by Professor ]. A.
Holmes. state geologist of North Carolina,
In which he said that the bad roads of the
south constitute an enormous mud and
sand tax of not less than s. per capita for
every man. woman and child living in these
states and he added that the cost to the
people of South Carolina could not be less
than $50OO,OD0 per annum.
These figures may be bit exaggerated.
but the extra cost of hauling and travelling
over the wretched roads of the south is
something enormous, and that's not the
worst OF 1t. With system of splendid
highways throughout Virginia, the lands of
the state would be enhanced in value at
least % per cent. That is what the farmers
are losing. and stin they are not willing to
tax themselves for road improvement.
