Anti-Unionists Hold Meeting.

Fresno, Call May 1.-the Presbyterian
general assembly began today by electine
a moderator's council of one representa-
tive from each synod to assist the mod
orator in appointing committees.
The item presenting the returns of the
vote on union was referred to a special
committee comprised of DR.. Templeton
the Rev. Y, A. Wigginton, the Rev. j. K
McClelland, John Botard and Judge
Young. The committee was instructed tc
canvass the vote and present full re-
port at noon tomorrow.
The reports of the educational society
was also presented.
The anti-unionists held another confer
enee this evening Reporters were ex.
cluded. Judge Russell of Tennessee, chair
man of the caucus, said In an interview;
II can announce to you that the Cum
herland Presbyterian church will be con-
tinued intact with its present doctrines
whatever the action of the general as.
sembly may be-.
When asked If that was the decision OF
the caucus he would not say but insist
ed that the statement was authoritative
He added:
I'VE do not believe the confession OF
faith Of the Presbyterian church has been
revised but ii is the same as it has been
for the past four hundred years, which is
fatalistic and professionalism.
The Rev. A. N. Eshman, a prominent
leader of the opposition, said today that
the union might as well be consummated
at once, as many would never go into it
so long as a line of the Westminster con-
fession remained, and tsated that If the
union was not contaminated now, Its
opponents would raise a campaign fun
of $4,000 to defeat it. This is the absorb
ing question, and not much interest was
taken in the routine business of the af-
ternoon, which after standing committees
had been announced. consisted of the pre-
sentation of numbers of reports of boards
and committees.

The opinion of great many is that the

and that some changes will be made.
None # the commissioners here will talk
regarding this matter, preferring to wait

WALTHOUR WON In
PRETTY CONTEST
MORAN MADE 1T EXCEEDINGLY
INTERESTING FOR THE CHAM
PlON IN BOTH HEATS OF THE
RACE LAST NIGHT.

Moran rode Bobby Walthour a close
race last Night, but was unable to de-
feat the blonde haired champion of the
world. Although defeated, Moran gave
Bobby hot race and in the first heat
particularly the champion was unable
to pass Moran, try as hard as he might.
The time of the second heat was very
fast, in fact the fastest ever witnessed
in Birmingham. The five miles was made
in six minutes and 45 seconds, an aver
age of 1;21 to the mile. One mile of this
heat was ridden in LII.
The first heat Walthour defeated Moran
by about 200 feet. Several times he was
within a few feet of the rear of Moran's
weel, but the latter called for more speed
and gradually drew ahead of Walthour.
In the last half of the last mile Walthour
gained on Moran, but was never able to
pass him. The two started from opposite
side of the track, aid Walthour did not
have to pass Moran in order to defeat
him.
The second heat proved the best Moran
crowded on all the stea,1 possible and
kept Walthour plugging the entire dis
lance. The pace was, however, hotter
than he could stand, and Walthour was
able to pass him in the last lap of the
last mile, winning by a little over one
half a lap.
Walthour had hardly crossed the line a
winner when the chain on his bicycle
jumped off the sprockets. Had 1t done
so during the race. Moran would have
won, or it might have thrown Walthour
and caused serious accident.
Jim Caravello defeated Allen in a pur-
suit race last night. 1t required one mile
and three laps for him to overtake Allen

Bigelow Heavily Insured.

Milwaukee, May 19-The journal today
says: f. G. Bigeloy, the ex-banker, car
red insurance of 81 10000 instead of 5000. :
600, as generally supposed. The confusion
in reports partly resulted from the failure
to consider as additional to that which he
regularly carried the 100000 made out in
favor of the National Electric company
1t is now said that over $500OOO of the
insurance accrues to the benefit of cred
itors, 900 is up as collateral to diff
ferent creditors, while the $500 600 referred
to is to secure Mr.. Bigelow's endorsement
of National Electric companysRaper.

day engaged the attention of the dele
gates to the general assembly of the Pres
byterian church in the United States
of America, commonly known as the
Northern Presbyterian.
The first reference to the contemplated
union was made by Dr. Sol c. Dickey, who
delivered a brief address early in the
morning session, presenting Modera tor
Moffat with a gavel skilfully contrived
from several kinds of wood. Dr. DiclSey
drew a metaphor from the blending of
the woods, referring to the union of the
several branches of the Presbyterian
church. His remarks were greeted with
loud applause.
John H. Converse of Philadelphia, presi-
dent of the Baldwin Locomotive Works,
whose financial support has made possi-
BILE the extension of evangelistic work of
Dr. j. Wilbur Chapman, at the head of
an evangellstic committee, was presented
with a handsome loving cup in apprecia-
ton of his valued services.
This afternoon several speakers dis
cussed the work of the evangelistie COM
mittee, which during the past year CEN
tered its efforts in Denver and cities
along the Pacific coast. DIR. j. Milbur
Chapman compared the revival spirit in
these cities to pentecost The assembly
voted to adopt the report of the commit
tee.
The woman's board of home missions
began it's annual meeting today when
Mrs. Darwin r. James of Chicago and
Justice John NJ Harlan of the United
States supreme court, and several mis-
slonaries were speakers. Receipts for the
year amounted to $475.042.
A message from the general assembly
from the Colored Cumberland assembly
in session at Huntsville. Ala stated that
a committee of seven had been appointed
to confer with similar committee from
the assembly in session here looking to
the union of the two branches. About
fifty thousand colored people compose the
Cumberland branch.
