THE WESTMINSTER Confession
Majority of the Presbyteries yotfn g
for IL Change of Some Sort.


NEW YORK Oct 22-Thus far 113
Presbyteries have expressed opinions as TO
a possible change in the Westminster Con-
fession of Faith. in response to the request
made by the General Assembly Commit
tee. There are 232 Presbyteries, but it
is expected that fully thirty-two of these
in foreign countries. Alaska and other
parts of the world. where meetings are
held only once a year. will not be heard
from.
OF the 1t9 voting, forty have asked that
the whole subject of change be dismissed
Of the eighty-seven still expected to vote
the conservatives say they do not look for
the support of more than thirty, possibly
not more than twenty-five The liberals
say not more than twenty of the eighty
seven will vote to drop the matter, max
ing the total sixty. The conservative
show no gains. and at least three losses.
Presbyteries voting against dropping the
subject number seventy-three. OF these
thirty-eight want new creed, thirty a
revision, and five supplemental state
ment, explanatory of certain misunder-
stood phrases.
It seems likely, so leaders say, that the
t vote will stand about 135 for change of
some sort to sixty-fve against one Con-
| seryatives base their hopes on the fact
| that they are united while those who seek
changes cannot reach any agreement.

sUsTAINs THE MISSIONARIES.
Preacher Says They Are Not to
RIauie for Boxer Uprising.


MONTCLAIR, n. J., Oct. 22--The Rev.
DR.. Henry Van Dyke, Professor of Litera-
ture in Princeton University, preached in
the First Presbyterian Church here yes
terday. DR.. Van Dyke announced that
movement was on foot in the local church
here to erect a hospital at Fusan. China,
in memory OF its late pastor, the Rev.
DR.. William L. Junkin. Charles Irwin,
NJ. D. is stationed in Korea, and it mas
on the strength of his urgent letter as
medical missionary that the Men lair
Presbyterians decided to establish = aos-
pital there. DR.. Van Dyke warmly COM
mended the project, and said that hos
pitaI work was the highest development
and fruit of missionary laborS in the Far
East. He then discussed the Chinese ques-
ton, and severely criticised the DISPOSE
ton in certain quarters to blame the mis-
sionaries for being the cause CT the Boxer
uprising.
There is no set Of men," he said. "Who
are more self-sacrificing and more de-
voted and conscientious in Their labor CT
love than these missionaries. They are
God-fearing men, possessed Cf 4 large
amount of common sense and courage
and intelligent. A few may have mingled
politics with religion, but they would
use the cloak Of religion in politics"
DIR. Van Dyke believed that China would
be reformed and regenerated, and woald
open her doors to the world in the naar
future This great change would be
brought about, not by fire and sword, but
through planting the seeds CT Chris tiani-
ty with their consent. He believed that
the present troubles furnished the oppor-
tunity for a grand and glorious work in
the East, He deprecated policy of force
and urged the Christian methods of peace
and goodwill.
Some people" DR.. Van Dyke said
sneer at foreign missions, and say that
1T is ridiculous to send flannel petticoat
TO the heather of Africa and an enproid-
cred handkerchief to the Eskimos o.
Alaska. Such people are behind the times
and are on a par with those who blame
the missionaries for the Boxer uprisjn >
in China. In other words, they are dense
