FATHER CONVERSE MISSING.

Philadelphia, October 5 Information

ton Of the disappearance several days

whose headquarters is at Crowley, near
Oxford, England. Father Converse was
formerly rector Of St. Clements church
and succeeded Father Maturin, who be-
came head OF the order and who some
time ago accepted the Roman Catt oil c
faith. Father Converse was born in
Ohio, % years ago, and was one Of the
two American born mem bers of the order.

BRITISH SOLDIERS.
WOrkmen at CharIestown Navy Yard
Unenrth skeletons.

Boston, October 5.-Workmen employed
in digging a trench between two Of the
timber sheds at the lower end of the
Charlestown navy yard, ,unearthed several
human skeletons. The remains were
found beneath a large tree only a short
distance from the old timber dock. The
officers Of the navy yard are wondering
where the skeletons came from. Some OF
the old residents at Charleston say that
when the government first established
the navy yard there was hospital on the
site of the officers houses next the Chelsea
bridge, and that there was a cemetery
only short distance off and near the
shore. Another theory is that the skele-
tons were those Of British soldiers who
were killed at the battle Of Bunker hill.
The remains win probably be inferred in
the naval cemetery at Chelsea.

CAMPAIGNING IN
CHICAGO.

Chicago, October 5.-Senator NJ. A.
Hanna was the target for a ten pound
chunk Of ice last night at the thirty
first ward Republican meeting, Sixty
Fifth and Halstead streets. The missile
was dropped through an aperture in the
tent directly over the speakers stand. 1t
missed Hanna's head by not more than
two inches, and had 1t struck him would
have fractured his skull probably. The
police who SURF ounded the speaker S
stand were astounded for a moment and
then made a rush for the streets. Senator
Hanna retained his composure and quiet
ly seated himself while Congressman
James r Mann went on with the speech
making.
1t was probably the work of some mis-
chieyous boys who had secured the ice
from a neighboring saloon. Senator Han
na left the tent escorted and protected by
a double row Of police.

ATTACKED NEWTON.
Conn. BaPfists Say Heresy Is Taught at
Mass. theological school.

Southington, Ccnn., October 5.-The
adjournment late last night Of the ami
Eersary meetings Of the New Haven Bap-
tist association was preceded by a live
y debate OocasioDed by a sensational
attack On the Newton, Massachusetts,,
Theological Seminary and the University
Of Chicago.
A resolution was presented asking that
all Of the churches IN the association be
asked to t-ke mp a collection for the
Newton Theological Seminary. 1t is IN
derstood that John D. Rockefeller had
promised TO give the Institution $50, =
O0O if a similar amount could be raised
in other quarters. Rev. L. a. T. Han
na, OF Shelton, opposed the resolution in
vigorous language. He said:
'This seminary and also the Baptist
University at Chicago are beds of heresy.
Their instructors lead the pupils from
the solid foundation Of the old theology
to the shifting quieksand Of the new
so-caIled scientific religion.
Young men," he continued, go to
these institutions with a true unWaYer-
ing faith in the Almighty. Before long,
however, they are shaken By the doubts
Of their tutors, who turn on the Bible
the searchlight Of science, and while not
absolutely rejecting portions Of It as IN
true, they so hedge certain passages with
doubts and scientific data that their
teachings lose their weight and their
pupils become atheists at heart If they
do not show their agnostic1sm out
wardly."
The speaker went on to say that the
teachings OF some OF the doctors of diVin-
ity in the Baptist seminaries. had be-
come so outWardIy agnoistic, thatkit had
been necessaryIto relieve them OF their
positions
The wedding, however, " he said, is
not yet completed and the seminaries
still hold men who endanger the future
Of the Christian cause.s'
Mr.. Hanna's remarks aroused a heated
controversy.
Rev. Raymond Mapleson, Of Middle
town, aQmlGGed that much that had Deen
said was true, but added that many Of
the objectionable men had been diTested
Of their power to do harm.
The president of the seminary in ques-
ton had assured him that in the future
there would be no cause for complaint.
Other speakers defended the institutions
attacked and characterized the
attack as uncalled for. A long debate
was ended when Rev. W. q, Thomas Of
Essex moved the adoption OF the resolu-
ton and this was done with an over
whelming vote.
