New York Sun Special Service. .
Rockford, ILL.,, March 10.-Opposite views
of the race problem have led to a contro-
versy between two Of the leading clergy
men Of the city, Rev. R. G. Bryant, pas
tor of the Church of the Christian Union,
and Rev. N. B.. Clinch, pastor Of EN-
manuel Episcopal church. The former, in
an address, .sa id:
"A young negro man. especially a mu-
latto, if he has intelligence and character,
has no difficulty in marrying white girl
if he wishes to do SO, for there are many
girls who would rather marry negro of
good character than white man of bad
character, And SO would you or I no
doubt, If it came to bet question with us.
LAS for myself, feel that the caste
lines and the race lines must be swept
away, and the future Of the negro, as
we'll as of all other races, must be the
same. Let us not attempt to check the
mutual progress of life according to the
divine purpose. f..
| Rev. Mr.. Clinch, who is a southerner
| by birth, declares with some warmth that
the idea Of the negro and white inter-
marrying is abhorrent to human sentiment
and natures laws.

lis MORGAN SOFTENING?
A Report That He Is Willing to Let
the Senate Vote on the
=. Treaty.

Washington, March 1o.-Senator Nor
gan has submitted proposition to tho
foreign relations committee by which
Saturday.
1t is that he shall be allowed to print
in the Congressional Record his speech
against the canal treaty and in favor Of
certain amendments. He offers to sub
NIT the speech to the committee and to
the senate, that it may be passed upon
before publication. No definite action has
been taken on this proposition, and can
not be until Mr.. Morgan has prepared his
speech and submitted it to the senate. If
it should be an argument against the
treaty or in favor of amending it, there
will be no good reason why it should not
be published. But If it contains charges
against either the diplomatic representa-
tives Of this government or those of CO.
lombia, it could not be made matter Of
public record. .
In view of the reports that have been
Morgan to the senate in executive session
there IS a disposition to accept the sena-
tors proposition.
Senator Gormans attitude on the treaty
Is said to be not antagonistic to early rat
ifcation. He believes that it should be
amended SO as to secure the absolute SOW
ereignty over the strip of territory through
which the canal is to be constructed, and
he wishes to develop the attitude of the
democratic party as in favor of absolute
owership of the territory before the vote
| is taken.

human torches. I could hear their agon-
