the mining situation in the Republi'
country which will doubtless interest all
who are engaged in that branch Of in
dustry.

PRESBYTERIANS VOTE TO

Philadelphia. May 2S.-By unani-
nous vote the Presbyterian General
Assembly yesterday adopted the report
of the special committee on the revis
ion of the confession of faith. The
debate on this important question had
extended into the fourth day and to

When recommendation b WAS Sun
day adopted by Il comparatively small
majority. DR.. MOtfat announced that
in view of the divergency of opinion
he would to-day offer an amendment
which he hoped would meet The ap-
proval of the entire assembly. When
he presented this amendment ycStpr-
day it was instantly accepted by the
commissioners. and the adoption of
the report as Il whole followed with
little delay.
Dir. J. ID. Moffat explained that he
was moved to offer an amendment to
recommendation "B" because of the
small majority which Saturday voted
to retain the recommendation in the
revision committees report. Objec-

Harlan. Brewer. Peckham-4.
The DE Lima case presented little
more than an academic question. 1t
related to the right of the United
States to collect duties on imports
from Porto Rico during the time be
tween the signing of the treaty Of
peace with Spain and the day when
Congress passed the Foraker act. The
court held that duties could not be col
lected during that time. The duties
which We're collected must be refund
ed. This decision was a nominal de-
feat for the claims of the administra-
ton.
In the DOwnes decision, however,
the administration won a sweeping vic
tory. That decision holds that since
Congress acted and ordered duties to
be collected II is proper to collect
them-in other words. that power to
determine the status of Porto Rico
and other similar acquisitions is re-
posed Iii Congress.
The views of Justices Fuller, Harlan.
Brewer and Peckham We're against the
administration position in both
cases. The views of Justices Shiras.
White. Gray and McKenna were In
favor of the administrations position
in both eases.
Justice ii. b. Brown is siXtyiive
years of age. He was Il classmate OF
Justice Brewer and Chauncey NJ. De-
pew at Yale. He served for fifteen
years as judge of the United States
District Court of Michigan. and was
appointed to the Supreme Court by
President Harrison December ~. 1890
Justice Harlan was appointed by
President Hayes. Justice Gray by
President Arthur Justices Brewer,

On the adoption of the report as Il
whole the moderator put the question,
and there was one great roar of aye"
Instantly the assembly rose ell masse
and sang the dOXolOgy. The moderator
then led in prayer. The end of the
great discussion which had continued
into the fourth day. came so quickly
that it took every one by surprise. DR.
Moffat, who introduced the harmonic
ing amendment to accommodation ''B',
was surrounded by IL crowd which con-
graduated him on his success in bring
ing the matter to such Il satisfactory
conclusion.
After the assembly had again sci

Prince Alphonse. the nephew Of the
Prince Regent OF Bavaria, is the man
of the hour in Bavaria. He has re-
ceived the Blue Letter." which means
he has been officially degraded. He
was not severe enough to please the
military and the mistake he made was
to manifest too much consideration
for the horses in his care. During
the last maneuvers, on reaching steep
and stony descent, Prince Alphonse Or
dered the men to dismount, 80 that the
