Pending Business of Presby-
terian General Assembly.
AN UNIMPEDED DEBATE
Decks Cleared for Action Upon This
Most MomentOus Question.
DESIRE OF THE PREsBYTERIEs
Statistical Showing of Their Pref
erences in Relation to
the Creed.

Philadelphia, May 2S-The important
question OF revising the creed, which for
the past two years has been agitating the
Presbyterian church, came before the gen
eral assembly to-day. and a long debate
ensued. Last week the report Of the spec
ial committee on revision. Of which the
Rev. DR.. Charles A. Dickey Of this city
is chairman, was made the order for 9
o'clock to-day, with the additional condi-
tion that the discussion should not be in
terrupted by other business until the COM
missioners had reached some definite con-
elusion. The committee was appointed by
the general assembly at st. Louis last
year.
The controversy regarding revision has
led to the formation of three groups
among the GAO commissioners to the gen.
eral assembly. First. there is the con-
servative group, composed of those op-
posed to any change whatever in the doc
trinaI standards of the church Then
there is a party desirous Of setting aside
the confession of faith as not truthfully
expressing the belief of the church. Be-
tween these stand the centrists, who IA
vor maintaining the old confession with
few notifications and who desire the
adoption Of a clear "deelarative" state
ment setting forth the most important
doctrines and laying special emphasis
upon the love of God for mankind and the
work of the Holy Spirit.

How the Presbyteries Stood.


In answer to the questions submitted
to the presbyteries, fifty asked the as
sembly to dismiss the whole subject, one
was undecided, four said they neither de-
sired a revision, a supplemental state
ment nor the dismissal of the whole sub
ject and of the 233 presbyteries. 15 in the
United States and 16 in foreign lands
failed to respond. OF the remaining pres
byteries, nearly two thirds Of the whole
number asking for some change in the
the confession, II an explanatory state
statement, 50 a supplemental statement,
IS revision and supplemental state
ment, an explanatory statement and a
supplemental statement, IA substitute
creed, 1 an alternative creed, and some
change, not specified.
After the opening hymn, Come, Thou,
Almighty King" prayer was offered by
Rev. DR.. David S. Kennedy of Allegheny
Pa, who invoked the divine assistance in
the consideration, OF the momentous ques-
tion before the assembly.
The debate on revision was delayed by
the report of the committee on bills and
overtures and other matters Rev. Dr..
Asa S. Fiske Of Washington, D. c., offered
a resolution congratulating President
Mckinley upon the prompt recovery from
an apparently fatal illness Of Mrs. Nc
Kinley and offering thanks to God at the
prospect Of her early return to her home
The resolution was unanimously adopted
DR.. Roberts, stated clerk, announced
that there is still two days business to
be disposed of after the revision question
is settled

CASE. dent Mckinley has
gone over the case
carefully with the judges of the federal
court of appeals in San Francisco and the
department of justice here has been kept
fully advised of everything that has hap
pened. 1t was thought the president
would announce his decision several days
ago, but he changed his mind and con-
cluded to hold the case open until late
this week. 1t is believed he will act be-
fore starting east. AS a result of con-
ferences in San Francisco, it is said at
the department Of justice that the presi-
dent and judges have finally reached COM
mon ground and that whatever the presi-
dents action is, they will indorse 1t. Let
ters and kilograms have been exchanged
between Senator McCumber, now UNDER
stood to be at home in Wahpeton, and
certain people in San Francisco in an
effort to secure through McCumber the
consent of McKenzie's North Dakota
friends to the agreement the president and
judges seem to have reached. The nature
of this agreement will not be discussed
by the attorney general, but it is inti-
mated that both the president and the
judges have yielded certain points.

ACTUAL VALUE OF TOBACCO.

Discussion Over the Effect of the Sam
 bling on the Poquonock Shade Grown.
 There has recently arisen considera- ble discussion over the true value of
 the Sumatra tobacco leaf grown under
 shade at the farm of the Connecticut
 Tobacco Experiment company in Po- quonock last year. It was given out to
 the press by the chief of the division of soils, department of agriculture, that the price received averaged Fl cents a pound for the crop.
 A few weeks ago a prominent grower made the statement to some of his friends that he believed that the crop was worth more than that, that the Il cents was the figure received for the crop after the finest portion of 1t had been taken out for samples and sent York If this were true, he said, and the samples amounted to number of pounds, it would make the crop worth $1.1O or s1.20 as a whole He said that this larger figure should be taken as the true value of the product under cloth, and that the farmers who were going into shade growing should know that the prospect was even brighter than they had thought. If the best portions of the crop, the very highest grade, was as good as Suma- tra in every respect, as Expert Cullman and others seem to testify then it must have been worth $1.50 to $2.50 or more; and if it had been taken out before the crop was averaged and sold, then 71 cents was not the real value of the shadegrown product.
 A representative of the Times had a talk with Dr. E. H. Jenkins, of the State Experiment station at New Haven, the other evening, and asked him if it was true that the Fl cents was not the actual value, and if it were true that the crop, taken without regard to the giving away of were not worth $1.10 or $1.20.
 Dr. Jenkins replied that he believed that the n cents was the real figure, and that the actual average value of the whole crop was about that amount per pound, and that as he understood 1t, the best grades and the lowest were all taken into account in reaching that figure There had been no wasteful samples, Hartford Times.
