TIE CONFESSION OF FAITH
Repert of the Committee of the Pros
byterian General Assembly.

Washington, December S.-After two
hours deliberation today the Presbyte-
rfan committee concluded it's discussion
of the revision of the Westminster Con-
fession of Faith and adjourned.
The committee find on examination
of the returns from the Presbyteries
the following facts:
1. That hhe returns plainly indicate
that the church desires some changes
in it's credal statement.
2. The returns Indicate plainly that
no change is desired which would in
any way impair the integrity of the
system Of doctrine contained i'm the
Confession of Faith
3. These returns also indicate that a
large plurality desire that changes
should be made by some new STATE
ment OF present doctrines.
4. The returns also indicate a desire
upon the part of many presbyteries for
some revision of the present confession.
5. 1t was therefore unanimously
agreed by the committee to recommend
to the general assembly that some re-
vision or change be made in our con-
fessional statements.
The committee will convene in this
city on February 18th next to finally
prepare the statement to the general
assembly in May.

THE ARMY POST CANTEEN
CAUSES MUCH DEBATE.
The Question of Its Abolition or Retention Argued
by Several Women Before the Senate Com
mlttee on Military Affairs

Washington, December S.-The senate
committee on military affairs today
continued it's hearing upon the anti
canteen provision Of the military bill,
hearing, in addition to a number Of
short speeches in advocacy Of the pro-
vision, a protest against it from Rev.
Mr.. Miller who served fourteen months
as an army chaplain in the Philippines.
Mrs. Thatcher, of New Jersey, appeal
ed for the abolition Of the canteen on
financial grounds, saying that it caus-
ed soldiers to squander not only their
health and their time, but their money
as well. Mrs. Kells. of Mississippi,
spoke for the mothers Of the soldiers,
saying that all of them favored the
suppression Of the liquor traffic.
Mrs Ingalls,, of st. Louis, said she
knew of many soldier boys who had
contracted the liquor habit at the can
teen. Miss Kearney, of Mississippi.
said she had been informed that Gen.
eral Eagan had been a notable excep-
ton among general army officers in IA
voring the canteen.
Mrs Alison, w. c. T. u. superinten-
dent of legislation, said that official
statistics show that the liquor tariff il
literally following the American flag in
the tropics. She presented figures to
show that the liquor expectations from
the United States to Cuba for the first
five months of 1899 had reached $472. 200.
as against $10.796 for the entire year Of
1898. In the Philippines and Porto Rico
there had been corresponding in
crease.
Mr.. Miller gave his unreserved en-
dorsement to the canteen and said this
view was the result of actual observa-
tion in the Philippines He declared
himself to be temperance man and
said that it was because he is such he
took this position. In the Philippines
the canteen is not. he said, the low

Raleigh, n. c., December S.-The
question of management of The Bibh-
cal Recorder consumed most of today s
session of the Baptist convention. The
committee recommended the purchase
of The Recorder and the North Caro-
lima Baptist by the convention. This
was opposed ard withdrawn Editor
Bailey, of The Recorder. then stated
,his connection would cease as editor
under the present arrangement The
matter was finally adjusted by the ap-
pointment of a committee OF five to or
ganize a corporation to buy The Ra-
corder, paying $4,000 for it, and, If
thought best, to buy the North Caro-
lima Baptist also, such corporation to
own and operate It. The directors OF
such company will name an editor who
will govern the policy of the papers.
No opposition whatever was shown to
Mr. Bailey or Edwards & Broughton,
who have for several years owned The
Recorder, but the aim is to give who
ever owns the paper control of its poll
cy. Differences have arisen between
the present owners and Editor Bailey,
as was frankly stated to the conven-
ton.
The report OF the committee on time
and place for the next meeting OF the
convention was taken UP. The com
mittee recommended the next conven-
ton should be held in Brooklyn church.
Wilmington, and that Rev. w. c. Ty-
rec, of Durham, preach the sermon,
with Rev. J. W. Lynch. OF Wake For
est, as alternate.
Rev. H A. Brown moved to amend
by substituting Winston for Whining
ton. He said the church had just been
completed in Winston and the Baptists
there wanted the convention.
Rev. A. d. Hunter thought it ought
