beginning to learn the exact attitude OF the
Western people am in hearty sympathy with
the plan Of having the tariff revised by its
friends"
Representative GiIlett, of Massachusetts, an
other advocate OF some revision believed that II
could be done soon enough for all concerned at
the regular session of Congress, beginning
year from December.
Senators Foraker. of Ohio. and McCurber, OF
North Dakota, were chary about expressing
themselves definitely on the subject.
THE people seem pretty well satisfied with

Washington. Nov. 21.-Announcement was
made at the White House this afternoon that
Attorney General William H. Moody had con-
scented TO remain in President Roosevelts Cabi-
net beyond March next the date originally
arranged for his retirement. Whether Mr..
Moody viii continue in office throughout the
four years of President Roossvelt's second term
has not been settled It is safe TO say, how
ever. that he will remain at the head of the
Department OF Justice for another year, and has
arranged his private business affairs with that
end IN view.
This decision on the part OF Mr.. Moody dis
poses OF the second Of two important Cabinet
portfolios Secretary Hay made similar an
nouncement to the President on the latter's IN

out of the category OF speculation. hx-GoVernor
Frank s. Black Of New-York and Joseph h

regard for Mr. Moody's personal character ana

Church Members Unite to PreUent
Him from Preaching.

Asbury Park N j.. Nov. A.-There was a lively
time at the Second Baptist Church Of West Park
yesterday. when the forces of the Rev R. A
Bolen and the opposition locked horns and tried TO
Guido each other in religious worship. AT a spe-
ctal meeting of the church on Thursday evening
two charges were brought against Mr.. Bolen one
accused him of calling members of his congrega-
ton hypocrites and agents of the devil. and say
ing they on their way to hell The second
charge was for having members arrested and
tried in court without first having them brought
before the church.
Mr.. Bolen admitted the charges were true. but
refused TO beg the pardon of the church, as re-
quested. By almost unanimous vote he was
then declared no longer pastor. II was also de-
cided at this meeting TO change the Sunday preach
ing service to song and praise services until an
other preacher could be secured.
When Mr.. Bolen walked into the church yester-
day morning the song and praise service was well
under way. Mr. Bolen got up in the pulpit and at
tempted read the I'll st lesson from the Scriptures
but he could be heard the songs of praise
from the congregation who kept on singing and
lister Mr.. Boien stayed in the pulpit for nearly
hour. looking his gold trimmed glasses at
singing just the same.
Last night things just a bit more noisy.
at about 715, and 1t was nearly 5 O'Clock when

the brethren was called on for prayer but he
could not pray, as Mr. Bolen began reading again.

was taken and the meeting was dismissed one or
the church members started to pronounce the bene-
diction. but he was beaten by Mr.: ,Bolen, who
