Not Come Before 1t.

FOR CREED REVISION
Presbyterian General Assembly Dis
poses Of Momentous Question.
L Court Of Last Resort Established for the
Hearing and Final Determination OF
Judicial Cases-New York Selected
for the Next Meeting.

Philadelphia, May 2s.-By unani-
nous vote the Presbyterian general
assembly yesterday adopted the re-
port of the special committee ON the
revision of the confession of faith.
The debate on this important ques-
ton had extended into the fourth day
and to Rev. DIR. James d. Moffat is
due the credit of having brought the
commissioners to such harmonious
conclusion. When recommendation B
was on Saturday adopted by a COM
paratively small majority DR.. Moffat
announced that in view of the di-
vergency of opinion he would offer
an amendment which he hoped would
meet with the approval of the entire
assembly. When he presented this
amendment yesterday it was instant
ly accepted by the commissioners and
the adoption of the report as whole
followed with but little delay.
A viva voce vote was taken and,
when $40 ayes responded to the ques-
tion,, the commissioners, as result,
sang 'Praise God, from Whom all
blessings fow," which was followed
by prayer of thanksgiving by Mod
orator Minton.
The momentons question of creed
revision having been disposed of. the
assembly proceeded to the considera-
ton of unfinished business. The re-
port of the special committee on judi
cial commissions was first in order
and was adopted after brief discus
sion. This report recommended the
establishment of permanent judicial
committee to which shall be referred
all judicial cases which the general
assembly does not elect to try before
the whole body. There will be no
appeal from the decisions of this
committee.
. New York was selected as the meet
ing place for the next general assem-
bly,.

Nevada Desert Crossed Without IA
Eject ON Mrs. Mckinley.

San Francisco. May 26.-President
Mckinley, accompanied by his wife
and members of his cabinet, started
tor Washington at ten a. m. Saturday.
Mrs. Mckinley enjoyed refreshing
nights rest and seemed eleated at
the prospect of soon being at home.
She was conveyed from the Scott res
idence to the Oakland ferry in q
closed carriage over a circuitous
route, which was chosen so that the
invalid might pass over only smooth
paved streets. An immense crowd
was assembled\at the ferry depot Of
the Southern Pacific.
Heads were uncovered as the car.
rage in which Mrs. Mckinley rode
approached and there was a visible
effort to restrain an outburst of ap-
plause as the carriage with drawn cur
tains drove slowly through the
throng. All respected the frail con-
dition of the sufferer and the enthu-
siasm was suppressed. There were,
no formal ceremonies at the depot.
Goodbys were exchanged by the pres
ident, cabinet members and others
of the party with the friends who had
come to wish them godspeed and the
distinguished travellers boarded the
ferryboat Oakland, which made a spe-
cial trip for their accommodation.
The carriage containing Mrs. McKin-
of the boat and the curtains partly
raised SO that she might obtain a
glimpse of the bay and Golden Gate.
AS the steamer drew out of the slip
hats and handkerchiefs were waved
and as it swung clear into the stream
the shipping in the harbor dipped
their colors in salute. Tumultuous
cheers then broke forth on shore and
were borne across the waters as San
Francisco's final farewell to President
Mckinley, his wife and the accompa-
nying members of his official family.
Crossing the Nevada Desert
Ogden, Utah, May 27.-The presi-
Dental train traversed the state OF
Nevada yesterday and reached Ogden
at $3.50 o'clock last night. The route
lay along the Humboldt river, through
the Ruby and Wasatch mountains,
and then descended into the Salt Lake
basin. During most of the day the
elevation exceeded 5000 feet and
snow-clad peaks were continually in
sight from the car windows. At this
season of the year the ride across
Nevada is exceedingly .disagreeable.
The heat is oppressive and the dust
from the desert is frequently blind
ing. Fortunately for Mrs. Mckinley
one of those heavy transforms which
so rarely visit this region swept COM
pletely over the state Saturday night,
laying the dust and tempering the at
mosphere. 1t rained also several
times during yesterday. The weather
seemed almost like special interven-
ton of Providence for the benefit of
the gentle sufferer. r
