for heresy, will leave the Presbyterian
church to join the Congregational de-
nomination. DR.. Robert F. Sample, how
ever, said he doubted if Prof. McGiffert
had any such intention.
The professor" he said, "in his works
as a historian, as I understand, did not
advance those writings as being his own
personal opinion. That much, l think,
was made clear in his letter to the gen.
eral assembly. but of course unit! he ap-
pears before the committee it is impossi-
BILE to say whether DR.. McGiffert's be-
lief differs with the orthodox faith of the
Presbyterian church."
Although the committee is stated to
have been formed of strongly conserva-
tive members, it is apparent from DR..
Samples remarks that the examination
will not be conducted in any prejudiced
Or narrow spirit.

New Ministry Endorsed By
the Ch ambers.
ADDRESS OF PREMIER
The Newspapers Are in Favor of tt .
Present Government Though the
Majority for it is Not a Very
Large One.

Paris, June 26-The cabinet ministry
presented themselves to the chamber this
afternoon. The chamber Of deputies was
thronged and there was great animation
at the opening of the session when it be-
came known that two hostile groups, the
socialist radicals and the democratic
left. had decided to vote in favor of the
government and that NJ Paul Decassa-
gusc had withdrawn his interpclla ton.
Identical statements We're read in the
Chamber of Deputies by the Premier, M.
Waldeck Rousseau, and in the senate by
the Minister of Justice M. Mons. They
were as follows:
THE Chamber of Deputies, in express
ing itself resolved not to support any gov
ernment but the one determined to de-
fend energetically republican institutions
and assure public order, has clearly de-
fined the task upon the nv cabinet. The
ministry has no other ambition than to
accomplish it,"
The senate by vote of 1877 to 25 ap-
proved the declaration Of the government.

Collegiate Boat Races.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y. June eff the
day had been made for the occasion it
could not have been more favorable for
the foar-oared race between crews of
Cornell university and the University Of
Pennsylvania and the eight -oared fresh
men crews of Columbia, Cornell and
Pennsylvania, which are scheduled to be
rowed at and 6 o'clock p. m., respective
ly, both for two miles. The Cornell crew
got first choice and was given the out
side course nearest the channel of the
river course which has distinctive ad-
vantages in an ebb tide. Wisconsin got
the inside course. which has usually been
SO disastrous to Pennsylvania and which
is so near the bank that there is some
times backswell. Pennsylvania got the
course next to Wisconsin, and Columbia
next to Cornell.
Coach McCOnville took his bad luck in
getting the inside course quite philo-
sophically, saying: well, we will do
our best, wherever we are, and | hope
that there is not much difference"
The drawings We're followed by discus
sons over the tide and the benefit the
outside crew would get if the race was
rOWed at the hour set. The committee de-
cided so as to avoid all controversy, that
the races should all be postponed for one
hour, the four-oared taking place at 8
O'Clock, the freshmen at 6, and the var
Sity at 6 o'clock tomorrow.

Otis Needs ReinfOrCementS.

New York, June pa special to the
Herald from Washington says: Major
General Miles is an advocate of the dis
patch Of reinforcements to General Otis.
He declined to discuss the political posi-
tion in the Philippines, other than to say
that it was serious, nor would he give any
idea of the troops that should be sent to
the Philippines to place the archipelago
under American control.
General Marcus p. Miller who recently
arrived from the Philippines, where he
governed Iloilo, has been living here since
his return. General Miller's view as to
the number of men required for the SUBJ
jugation of the islands is very different
from that of General Otis. He believes
$4,000 men at least are required, 10000
for the control of Luzon and the re-
mainder for the restoration of peace and
order in the islands. General Miler's
view comedies with General Lawton's
and that of other officers subordinate. to
General Otis. In fact, in other than ad-
mlnistratio circles there is a DISPOSE
ton to believe that General Otis esti-
mate of the men required was made
when he knew of the desire of the presi-
dent not to raise volunteers if possible
to avoid it.
There is no truth in the story that Gem
eral Miles has applied to be sent to Ma
Mia. General Miles would not wish to
take any steps to displace General Otis
when that officer is doing all he can to
quell the rebellion with the limited
means al his command. Notwithstand-
ing the reDOrt to he contrarv tho proc;
dent is satisfied with General Otis course
and has no intention of relieving or re-
calling him. It is equally untrue, it is
asserted by Acting Secretary Meikle-
john, that General Otis has cabled that
he will be compelled to retreat unless he
is promptly reinforced

The MCGiffert Case.

New York, June 26.-The New York
Presbytery will meet today for the pur-
pose of finishing left over business, but
the case of Prof. McGiffert will not be
touched upon. The presbytery at it's last
meeting acting upon its message from the
general assembly, have postponed the
case until later. A committee was ap-
pointed to wait upon Prof. McGiffert and
to report November 15 and nothing will
be done until this committee reports. The
investigating body has not as yet met,
and as most of the members are now
away from the city it is understood that
the inquiry will not begin until towards

QUESTIONS OF BOOKKEEPING.
County Attorney BigeIOw Passes on
Some TangIes in Accounting.

County A Attorney Bigelow yesterday
prepared two legal opinions one of which
bears upon the recent contention be-
tween Comptroller McCardy and the
board of control as to the rights of the
board and the city hospital authorities
in the disposition of the income of the
hospital from paid patients. Briefly, the
opinion of the county attorney as to the
Interpretation of the law upon the sub
ject is to the effect that the money re-
ceived from paid patients at the hospital
must be deposited with the county treas
urer, who shall then credit one-third Of
the amount to the city and retain the
other tWo-thfrds as the county's portion,
but that the hospital authorities are au-
thorized to use such portion of the
amount as may be necessary to the prop
er maintenance of the hospital or in
other words, that the sums collected for
the board ard care of patients should be
placed to the credit of the hospital fund.
as well as the amount regularly included
in the tax budget for hospital purposes.
The other opinion was prepared at
the request of the jo1nt court house and
city hall commission, and relates to the
purchase of supplies and furniture for
the offices in the court house and city hall.
The money for these punches es, the ccun-
ty attorney holds, must be appropriated
by the council or the board Of county
commissioners, but the purchases must be
made under the supervision or direction
of the commission

that it was apparent there was a COM

ures were read yesterday there was no
talk made about combine except that
Mayor Kiefer remarked that there was
a great unanimity in the prices.
President Dix, of the assembly, said
the increase really did not amount to
much anyhow, as the school board would
use only about 800 tons of hard coal alto
gether. The firms bidding yesterday were

Edward e. Scribner, long and favoraDly
known in this city, died yesterday at the
home of his son-in-law, Charles l.. johns

He was born in Newark, N. j., May D.,

the wholesale clothing house of P1erson
&, Tichenor. of Newark, which, before the
war did an extensive business in the
South. He retired from that business,
and in 1865 became secretary and general
manager of the Bridgeport Spring "
Axle company, of Bridgeport, Conn,
which he carried into very successful
operation. His health failing he sold out,
ana came to St Paul in 1868, and in 1872
formed the Scribner e Crittenden part
nership in the roofing and cornice bust
ness.
Hl the later 70s Mr.. Crittenden retired,

line of business In the early Cos he SOLD
his stock in this company, and shortly
after became general Western manager or
the EMPLOYERS Liability Insurance COM
pany, with headquarters in Chicago Since
that time his business and residence for
the most part have continued in that city
Finally, with very little warning, his
health became impaired, but he kept
steadily at work until Aug. 20 when he
came to ST. Paul to recuperate his ex-
hausted energies He continued to sink
however, and yesterday the end came
To all who knew Mr.. Scribner in either
business or social relations will come this
aptest of phrase, "He was a gentleman.
