Chicago H.. May l9-That the Ameri-

generating Is the opinion of DR.. Charles

logical seminary, New York. who has
made a brief address before members and
friends of the religious educational asso-
ciation at the Art Institute.
DR.. Hall Is president OF the association.
which has now 20C0 members, In various
parts OF the country.
We all rejoice in the remarkable
growth and the excellent features OF
American civilization" he said, and we
are pleased al the relatively good state OF
the common morality OF the people but a
deeper examination Of the social side OF
our American life reveals q situation that
causes anything but satisfaction.
"It Is a matter OF CONSERVATION and deep
concern to US that the moral standard OF
American life is deteriorating. In the hus-
tie and hustle OF every day activity, we
have astonished the world but. morally
we are rapidly going astern-so rapidly
that one Is dumbfounded at the contrast
after visit 10 some OF the countries OF
the old world.
II know from observation that religion
has little IL any part In our American civ.
ilization today. This Is a lamentable state
OF affairs and 1t behooves each and all OF
IVA TO do all we can TO help to stem this
tide Of indifference. Our home life is not
what II should be and II Is not TO be won
dered at when we realize the general
apathy OF the people as regards their
spiritual welfare"

CAPTURED BY BANDITS.
Two Men Carried OF From The Sahurhs Of
Tangler.

Tangier, Morocco, May Ian Ameri-
can citizen named Perdicaris. and HIS
stepson, a British subject. were carried
of by the well-known bandit Raisuh and
his followers last night. and will doubt
less be held for heavy ransom. The
captives were staying at Perdicaris' sum
ner residence. only three miles from
Tangier. when the bandits attacked and
captured them.
Perdicaris is OF Greek origin, but Is a
naturalized American citizen OF the
United States. He Is very wealthy and
has lived in Tangier for years.
He married an English woman, whose
son is his companion In captivity.
Foreigners are much excited by this
bold raid. so near Tangier. and attribute
II TO the supineness OF the government in
falling to punish the bandits who last
year captured Walter r. Harris. the cor
respondent In Morocco OF the London
Times. and their failure to deal with
general lawlessness in the district.
Walter B. Harris, the London Times
Moroccan correspondent was led into
ambush and captured In June OF last
year by members OF the Darromana tribe
who handed him over TO Raisuli. He
was un-injured and released after having
been held In captivity three weeks In ex-
change for i6 native prisoners.

London, May l9-By a majority of IS
Premier Balfour last night defeated an
attempt TO upset the government upon
the fiscal question. An interesting de-
bate. characterized by some heated ex-
changes. took place. resulting In the
premier's reiterated determination 10
shelve the question OF fscal reform until
the next parliament In this decision
Joseph Chamberlain publicly concurred.
The motion upon which the question
came up was made by Alexander Will

land and an advanced liberal, welcoming
the ministerial declarations that PRO
tective taxation OF food would be burden

empire" In purpose the motion was In
tended TO censure Mr.. Chamberlain. and
the latter's amendment TO II would have
split up the Unionist party and possibly
would have resulted in the defeat Of the
government.
In the course OF the debate Lord Hugh
Cecil. in scathing satire, denounced the
policy OF his cousin, the premier.
Mr.. Chamberlain interrupted him and
then a storm OF interruptions and cries
of order arose from the radical and
liberal benches. Twice Mr.. Chamberlain
sat down and twice the speaker appealed
to the members TO give the former
colonial secretary a hearing
At last there was comparative quiet
and then Lord Hugh Cecil. with much
heat and amid a great uproar. accused
Mr.. Chamberlain OF cowardice in dodg-
ing the issue by refusing TO meet his
opponents In the house on the campaign
which he had preached throughout the
country.
Sir Michael Hicks Beach threw a bomb
shell into the free food camp by announc-
ing that he would not support Mr.. Black e
motion.
Then Mr.. Chamberlain reiterated that
he did not wish 10 raise the fiscal ques-
tion in the house He said he support
ed the government and would continue
TO do so.
Mr.. Balfour said his Sheffield speech
still represented the advice he would give
to the country II asked tomorrow 20 frame

terial cheers. repudiated Lord Hugh
Cecil's charge Of cowardce against Mr.
Chamberlain, saying that Lord Hugh was

age"
