MINISTER WI
TALKS BACK
Delivers an Address on Con-
fUciUs and MencieuS.
MAKES REPLY
TO CLERGYMEN
Says He Has No Quarrel With
Christianity.

Philadelphia, Jan. 27-Wu Ting
Fang. China's minister pIenipotentiary
to the United States, replied to his
critics today in the course of a lecture
on "COnfUcius and Mencius," delivered
before the Society On Ethical Culture
at Horticultural hall
Every available inch of both seating
and standing room was occupied by an
audience attracted by the protest and
criticism raised by Minister WIS re-
cent utterances in New York City on
the subject OF Christianity.
The Chinese minister's statements
were, however, extremely conservative.
Burns Weston, director of the society
introduced Minister WI. who said.
''Twenty-fOuT centuries have rolled
by since COnfUcius walked this earth.
His influence Is as great today among
his ccUntrymen as it ever was before
Never was his name held in greater
veneTatiOn than 1t is now Throughout
the length and breadth of the Chinese
empire, everywhere are temples erected
TO his memory. Every school boy ac-
knOWlsdges him as the supreme teacher
Of the Chinese race. His spirit per
vades a nation of 400, 600, 000 and his
word is recognized as law to the most

cianism delivered last month at Car
negie hall in New York has attracted
a great deal of attention. 1t is q source
Of qualification to me that the remarks
made or that occasion have ELECTED
comments from the American press,
which are generally very favorable,
and also expressions Of approval from
persons in different parts of the coun-
try But, on the other hand, have
seen in the newspapers some adverse
criticism on my address from number
Of clergymen. But, lest a false impress
sion may have gone forth in regard to
that address. I take this opportunity
to say few words about it by way Of
explanation

from the sermon of the Rev. Dr. Way
