HANDLING A HERETO
Presbyterians are Grieved Over the
Case of DIR. EcGiffert.

Wdnona Lake. Ind, May 25.-The much
discussed book "a History of Christianity
in the Apostolic Age" by Prof. A. c. Nc
effort, D. D.: of the New York presby-
terry, was Put before the general assembly
of the Presbyterian church today.
The case of DR.. McGiffort came before
the general assembly late this afternoon
on reports from the committee on bills
and overtures. OF these there were three,
the majority and two minority reports.
The first advised that the assembly take
no action but leave IL to President Nc
effort to explain his position or retire
from the Presbyterian ministry. The first
minority report desires that the matter
be referred to the presbytery of New York
for action and settlement. The second
minority report recommends no action.
but condemns the alleged erroneous teach
ing of the New York professor.
The majority report, which was pre-
scented by Rev. Dr.. Sheldon Jackson, first
recites the overture from the presbytery
of Pittsburg calling the attention of the
assembly to the alleged heretical teach
ings contained in Professor McGinort's
volume Of the international theological
library.
In conclusion the report says:
1.-The assembly indeed desires the full
est and freest investigation and inquiry
on the part of the reverend Christian stu
dents into the foundations of the Christian
faith, but it deprecates everything which,
whether in its substance or in the form
of its expression, needlessly disturbs the
faith of Christian people. The general
assembly deplores the renewal Of the con-
troversy opened by the publication of this
book at a time when our recent divisions
were scarcely healed. II seems the wide
spread belief that the utterances Of DR..
McGiffort are inconsistent with the teach
ings of the scriptures as interpreted by
the PRESBYTERIAN church and by evangeA-
cal Christendom. And this assembly
stamps with its deepest disapproval the
utterances in the book called to Its at
tention by the presbytery Of Pittsburg
not in accord with the standards Of our
church.
But the church needs peaceful union OF
its forces. cooperation of all its members.

dence. so that It may address itself with

the suspected spy. arrested on board the
prize steamer Panama, is incorrect

Ln0 suspected spy, arTeSteO Oti OOoIA N-IO
prize steamer Panama. is incorrect.
Key West, Fla. May 25.-The fnvestiga-
ton of the case of the suspected Spanish
spy, Romerigo Zapatero Jiminez. pas
senger on the prize steamer Panama. was
continued today by the federal authorities
and brought out some new facts.
A search of Jiminezs effects revealed q
cipher letter which turned out to be the
key to ffty-nine charts of the Atlantic
coast from Maine to Florida, particular
ninuteness being shown to the vicinity
Of Norfolk. Boston and Providence har-
bors and the inlets around Tampa. All
the Florida keys and the Tortugas are
also explained in detail.
A rigorous search failed to detect the
charts.
Jiminez swears that he was an engineer
in the Spanish navy IN Cuban waters. but
ran away in 1890, since which time he has
lived in New York, at II Fourth avenue
An old sword and a new pair of epau-
lettes found in his trunk, he said were
a part of his equipment.
Passengers on the Panama say they
recognize Jiminez as a lieutenant Of the
Spanish navy. The officials are inclined
to the belief that others on the Panama
are associated with Jiminez in whatever
scheme he may be engineering, and for
this reason the prisoner was taken off
the steamer today and placed under
guard on a little fishing smack as a war
prisoner.
Several persons elaine dto recognize in
the suspect Lieutenant Sobral, former
naval attache of the Spanish legation in
Washington. but there is nothing to war
rant such statements
New York, May 25.-Romerigo Jiminez,
the man who was arrested at Key West
today as Spanish spy and who was re-
ported to be Lieutenant Sobral. gave No.
n Fourth avenue, New York. as his ad-
dress. This is four-story building. Liv-
ing on the top floor is B. B. Bafart. 1t
was with this man that the supposed spy
lived. Bafart said tonight that Jiminez
was not spy; that his occupation was
that of a consulting engineer. He says
Jiminez first came to this country as an
agent Of the Spanish government to ex-
anime the Sealiki gun and that he re-
ported favorably to his government on
the invention. For some reason or other
ne did not return home and not long after
fell into disfavor with his government.
Bafart says Jimine had at one time been
an of1cer in the Spanish navy
