A large brick building is in course of
erection on the north side of Broughton
street, between Barnard and jefferson
streets, 10 be occupied by Mohr Bros as
wholesale store and mandatory. The
building is 10 be three stories on a nine
foot basement, and win have an ornamen-
tai front of pressed brick and plate glass
with stone trimmings. 1t viii have a
frontage of 6114 feet on Broughton street.
by depth of 30 feet, and is to be complet-
ed by Sept l.
Mohr Bros have for the last three or
four years conducted an extensive manu-
featuring business at Bryan and West
Broad streets, where they have a force of
sixty employees manufacturing pantaloons,
overalls, shirts, drawers and caps. All the
goods in the lines named handled by the
firm in its wholesale business are manu-
featured by it.
Mr. A. Mohr said yesterday that the fac
tory had been q success from its inception,
never having had to stop work for a day
oil account of lack of demand for the
goods The goods are sold by the firm
throughout Georgia and Florida, and are
in good demand. Recently orders for 5000
to 5000 suits for the state conyicts of
Georgia and Florida, have been filled, the
orders having been secured in competition
with Northern firms,
With the completion of the new build
ing the wholesale and manufacturing de-
partments will be conducted under one
roof With the increased accommoda tons
afforded the force of hands will be increas-
ed probably TO 100. The third floor will
be fitted up especially for the manufacture
ing department, especial regard being had
to lighting, heating and ventilation and
other conveniences which will conduce to
the comfort of the employees. locker
will be provided for each employee. The
building will be steam heated and electro
cal fans will keep up the circulation of air
in summer Chutes leading from the
third floor to the basement will be used
to dispose of the scraps and cuttings, thus
preventing all litter on this floor.
This is the only manufacturing institu-
ton of this kind, or of any kind engaged
in the manufacture of clothing, in Savan-
nah, or this section of the state. Atlanta
has one or two clothing factories, but
Mohr Bros. have found no difficulty in SELL
ing their goods there. Many people are
not aware that Savannah has a clothing
factory, even, but Mohr Bros. have proven
that such industries can be successfully
conducted here

pIGHER CRITICISM rR1UMPHED ?
Has There Been "a Silent But Success
full Theological Revolution Going
From the Chicago Tribune.


From the Chicago Tribune.
If silence speaks louder than words,
the theological seminaries are producing
some significant eloquence of this sort in
regard to DR.. Briggs book Here is a
text book designed to be put in the hands
of young theologues which teaches that
the Old Testament is composed of myths,
legends, and poetic tales of fiction. In
or near Chicago there are five OF six large
theological seminarbes Of the leading
evangelical denominations, yet scarcely
a protest has come from any of them. The
Tribune undertook last week to find a
theological professor who would review
Dr. Briggs book in a strictly conserva-
tive spirit, but the quest was practically
in vain. The seeker was tod that II
would be useless to look for a strongly
adverse critique in the Methodist, Bap-
fist, or Congregational seminaries, and
that the only possibility of getting it
lay among the conservative Presbyteri-
ans who had condemned DR.. Briggs for
heresy The natural inference is that
these Methodist, Baptist and Congrega-
tiouaI professors, like the Episcopalians.
have no serious objection to DR.. Briggs
book.
Prof. Robinson, who holds the chair
of Old Testament exegesis in Mccormick
Seminary. reviewed the book adversely
IN last Sundays Tribune. Taking this
as a fair representative of the extreme
conservative position, il still shows
degree Of liberality which indicates that
the so-called higher criticism has not
been without its silent effect even among
the Princeton school of theologians Prof.
Robinsons shafts are aimed rather at
the chip-on-t he-shouder attitude of DR..
Briggs than at his heretical doctrines.
Nowhere has there arisen any authorita-
tive voice coudemning the NEUROLOGICAL
views OF the Old Testament origins. This
silence is significant of a radical change
in theological circles over the IDEAS of
few years ago. If the conclusions OF the
higher criticism are no longer combatted.
then they are tacitly accepted, and in
another decade we may expect to see them
taught in the schools.
Prof. Briggs Study of the Holy Scrip
lures" Is by no means a radical book
when compared with those of Strauss
Reuan and many of the archaeological
critics of the present day. It's significance
lies in the fact that II Is intended as
text book in theological schools, and that
nobody appears TO be particularly shock
ed or alarmed over such an innovation.
If the professors in the leading theologi-
cal serninaries have no quarrel with the
statements that the Old Testament Is com
posed in large part Of the Mistakes myths
and legends, and thai the New Testament
draws largely from poetic sources"
there has been a silent theological reyo-
luton going on without the knowledge Of
the lay public.
