A LAST APPEAL.
Address of Columbian. President is So
characterized.

New York. Jan. 27.-Dr d. J. Restre-
pc, head of the Colombian revolutionary
junta here, declares that the address of
Acting President Marroquin, of Colon
bia, is g last specious appeal" He as
serted that never before have the reyo-
lutionists had so many armies in the
field and that DIR. Marroquin's predic-
ton of the early end of the rebellion is
absurd
Our recent success in Panama is well
KNOWN continued DIR. ReStrepo. I'VE
have armies operating that have SO far
met with no severe reverses for a year,
L hold in my hand a cablegram just
received, acknowledging the receipt by
the Generals Castillo, who commanded
the recent successful attack on Rio
Hacha, of 100000 cartridges for rifles.
The Castillos report that they hold a
post on the Magdelena river, an import
ant water highway of Colombia. That
is something we have never before ac-
complished
LAS to DR.. Marroquin's statement that
the revolution is being conducted for
private ends and that the leaders seek
to make money, it scarcely needs re-
futation. Those who are engaged in
the revolution have given literally of
their means to the cause. There is so
little expectation of gain by the move
ment that we have never chosen any
except military chiefs. Our leaders are
not seeking political place."

Professor Parsons Recent Attack on
the Bible Miracles.

Chicago, Jan. 27.-Professor Pearson
and his recent open attack on the mir
acles Of the Bible were discussed in
many of the Sunday sermons in Chi
cago- The line was not drawn between
denominations preachers of many creeds
in score of churches deeming the ut
terances of the Northwestern universe
" teacher worthy of especial thought.
To the congregation in the Isaiah tenn
pie Rabbi Stolz said:
1t is not difficult to find in the Bible
inaccuracies, exaggerations, inconsist-
encies, errors in text. and sentiments
that degrade the Deity to the level of
an Oriental despot-"
Again he said: I'VE are under obliga-
tons to Professor Pearson that he
again has called attention to this truth
In spirit of reverence and duty and
not from sense of scorn and ridicule."
Bishop Fallows declared the miracle
to be not unnatural, but supernatural,
and especially defended the records of
the New Testament
Rev. Camdon H. Cobern, preaching
before the members of the ST James
Methodist Episcopal church, declared:
1t Is true that not all the Bible is lit
eral history and that a man or church
would indeed be foolish who would in
slst upon Interpreting every part of the
Bible as literal history. Many of the
remarks made recently" he said before
concluding, do not sound like the ut
terances of a Biblical critic, but of in
fidelity, pure and simple"
In another part of the city Dr. Leach
was even more outspoken. Take away

hoyah-God-I will brand you Judas. Dis

The speaker continued to say he was
concerned for the weaker men and women
who might be influenced by the professor s
utterances and demanded that the trustees
OF the university suspend. the teacher
Rev: DR.. Johonnot, at the Unity church
In OAK Park, talked the theme of The
Evil Results of the Belief in an InfalIible

lost any true faith when we recognize the

distinct gain. The Bible is like a gallery
of paintings, in which are gathered the
good and the bad"
Speaking before the Independent Relf-

MOVE AMES MONUMENT.
Union Pacific Will Transfer Tt Four
Miles South.

Laramie, Wyo., Jan. 27.-It has been
decided by the Union Pacific railway
that the Ames monument, which has
bene left isolated at the old Sherman
station by the construction of the
Sherman Hill tunnel and the Larimie
Buford cutoff, shall be moved to the
new Sherman station, four miles south
of the former site.
The proposition to rebuild it elsewhere
than on the Sherman hill was decided
to be wholly opposed to the spirit that
originally led to it's erection. The time
was too short, however, to admit of
making the transfer before winter set
in, and the work was postponed until
spring.
The Ames monument, which was built
in 1888, and paid for by relatives of
Cakes and Oliver Ames. to whom the
Union Pacific owes more than to any
other men for its existence. is of solid
native granite and cost 100000

Chief Beneficiary Under Will Is Stu

New York, Jan. 27.-When the will of
Marcellus Hartley is filed for probate
in the Surrogate's court next Tuesday.
it may be found thatth first estimate
be many times multiplied There was
a welI-credited report in circulation to-
day that Mr.. Hartley left sec, 000, 600, to
go almost entirely to his grandson, Mar
cellus Hartley Dodge. While this re-
port was denied, there are reasons for
believing that Mr.. Dodge will be a
large beneficiary under the will of his
grandfather.
ago Senator Chauncey NJ. Depew, after
expressing deep regret at the death of
his longtime friend, said it would be
found Mr. Hartley had left an estate
seldom exceeded in size. From a close
personal and business friend of Mr.
Hartley it was learned today that the
estate has value of not less than $780,
100000, and probably not more than $780,
10000, although another friend said 1t
would amount to $15,000,0 600.

Quoted, will be divided between Mrs.

Marcelfus Hartley Dodge is now in
his junior year at Columbia university
He is 20 years old. He is popular with
hs classmates, who have found he Is
possessed of a modest and retiring dis
position. He is a member of Phi Gam
ma and Phi Kappa Beta societies, and
of the Kings Crown, the undergraduate
literary society.
Mr.. Hartley believed his grandson to
possess business traits that would re-
suit in his maintaining the family pres
tige. That this estimate of his abilities
is warranted is the opinion of young
Mr.. Dodge'S friends. He has exhibited
marked managerial strength, and his
services as business manager have been
eagerly sought by all the athletic
branches Last year, as business mana
