committee received a telegram to 60 to
Wilkes Barre. They went and had an
interview with President Mitchell and
the district officers. The result Of their
visit Is told above.
A canvass was made by the commits
tee yesterday Of all the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western engineers,
pump-runners and flremen, and every
man who was seen agreed to remain at
work. The only men not seen were a
few Of those who are on the night
shift and who happened to be out when
the committeeman called.
In conversation with Tribune man
yesterday, j. j. McAndrew, chairman
of the general meeting Of engineers,
pump-runncrs and firemen, expressed
the belief that about all the men IN
the First district, which includes the
Delaware, Lackawanna and western
collieries located between the Storrs
shaft, on the north, and the Hallstead,
on the south, will be at work as usual.
There may be a few he said. who will
remain away, but even these recognize
the absurdity of their abandoning their
positions. The resolutions adopted to
continue work were practically unani-
nous, he said, and on this fact he bases
his belief that the men will not go out.
Regarding the conference between
the committee and the officials OF the
union, Mr.. McAndrew said they re-
ported having been cordially received
by President Mitchell, but were given
TO understand that such a thing as re-
calling the strike order was entirely
out Of the question.
No specific reasons were given them
as to why the order would not be re-
scinded. but the committeeman were

LANGUAGE MODIFIED.

Overture No. 5.-Shall section Z, chap
ter XVI. of the Confession of Faith he
changed SO as to read:
VII. Works done by unregenerate men,
although for the matter of them they may
be things which God commands. and In
themselves praiseworthy and useful. and
although the neglect of such things Is sim
full and displeasing to God; yet because
they proceed not from a heart purified by
faith, nor are done in a right manner ac-
cording to His Word. nor to right end
the glory of God; they come short of
what God requires, and do not make any
man to receive the grace of God.
The twenty-second chapter of the Con-
fession says that sit is q sin to refuse
an oath touching anything that is good
and Just, being imposed by lawful au-
tbority." 1t is proposed to strike out this
clause.
Chapter XIV deals with the pope of
Rome who claims to be the head of the
church. 1t characterizes him not only as
"Anti- Christ" hut. also. as "the man of
sin, and son of perdition." This language
is severe, and many in our church regard
it as unwarranted. 1t is therefore pro-
posed to omit any mention of the pope
of Rome and to make the broad and COM
prehensive statement that no person has
any right to claim to be the vicar Of
Christ. This is the proposed substitute:
Overture No. 7.-Shal the following
section be substituted for section 6, chap
ter XIV, of the Confession of Faith. viz?
VII. The Lord Jesus Christ is the only
head of the church, and the claim OF any
man to be the vicar of Christ and the
head of the church, is unscriptural, with
out warrant in fact and Is a usurpation
dishonoring to the Lord Jesus Christ.
1t is further proposed to add to our Con-
fession two now chapters-one concerning
the Holy Spirit and another concerning
the Love of God and Christian missions,
WILL BE DISCUSSED.
These chapters have been prepared with
care. and they will come up before all
our Presbyteres for discussion during the
present ecclesiastical year. There are in
our church 233 Presbyteries and 1859 min
listers. All these ministers and an equal
number of ruling elders, will have right
to discuss and vote upon all the subjects
proposed by. the assembly, and IL two
thirds of all our Presbyteries give their
approval, the proposed amendment will
become a part OF the constitution of our
church, and will be embodied in our Con-
fession of Faith.
These are important matters and 1t Is
the duty of all our ministers and elders,
and church members to pray that God
may bestow upon those who are to de-
eide these questions all needed wisdom
and grace, SO that Gods truth may be
conserved, and that His kingdom and
glory may be promoted. ~
