CONFESSION OF FAITH.
Presbyterian Committee on Greed Re-
vision Adopt Form.

Philadelphia. Feb. S.-The Presby-
terrain committee on creed revision to-
day decided upon a form of declara.
tory statement On the third chapter
of the confession of faith, declaring
that the doctrine of Presbyterianism
is held in harmony with Gods love
for all mankind, ana that no man is
condemned except on the ground CT
his sin.
The declaratory statement with ref
erence to "elect infants vas also
adopted, asserting that the ?resby-
terrain church does not teach that
those dying in infancy are lost but
that all dying in infancy are included
in the elect by grace.
Members of the committee denied
that the American Presbyterian
church ever taught the doctrine Of
infant damnation. This conclusion
was reached after four days of almost
continuous discussion and members
of the committee stated tonight that
it is the unanimous declaration and
states what has always been the doe
trine Of the Presbyterian church. The
.~declaratory statement is merely an
%elucidation of certain passages in the

DISSENT FROM PROVISIONS
MINORITY REPORT ON ANTI-AN.
ARCHlST BILL.
Holds That States Should Deal With
Subiect-Federai Law Not
s.. Necessary.

Washington, Feb. S.-Representa
tive Lanham CT Texas, democratic
leader OF the house judiciary commit
tee, today presented a minority re
port on the bill for the perfection OF
the president against assault and con
spiracy. While agreeing with the
idea that the United States had be.
come an asylum for anarchists and
those opposed to organized govern
ment, yet, he %dissentedI from giving
the president protection not accorded
to other citizens.
AS to this he said: 81 deny the
proposition that one honest and law
abiding mans life is any more sacred
than that Of another. Any officer OF
u government is but a servant of the
people and d servant cannot be great
er than his lord.
The holding or possession of office
does not, of itself, render any mar
impeccable or immune from human
frailties and imperfections. Public
men among us can do wrong, there is
no such thing as royalty or titled no,
bility Or hereditary prerogative in
the United States, With us there are
no artificial distinctions and one good
man is as good as another and as
much sanctity surrounds the life OF
II as it does hat of another. The
murder of the humblest citizen in our
lane is just as heinous, just as felon-
Il as that of the greatest or most
distinguished. Murder is murder upon
w~homsoever inflicted and human life

London, Feb. S.-A dispatch to the

clares that "the firmly rooted belief
in influential circles is that nothing

tional committee leads to the nope
that the government has at last learn
ed the lesson that home rule cannot
be killed with kindness and that the
ministry has become aware of the ter
rible havoc being worked by the
league throughout Ireland"
The correspondent adds: Irish
men who have just returned from the
United tSates aver that no support
will be given to the disloyal cause I'M
less the discussions and scenes in
parliament give place to something
more active in Ireland itself. The
American side of the campaign is be-
ing run by men who are all Of the
same stamp as Finnerty, who COM

Ireland is being taught to believe in
the coming storm and to openly speak
thereof with enthusiasm. The policy
Of kindness has convinced the peas

almost at an end, and, in truth, the

pended, and the court of the league is
