THE ROCKEFELLER DONATION.
Board Of Foreign Missions Prints a
Statement

BOSTON, April PA statement was
made public today by the prudential COM
mittee of the American board of commits
sioners for foreign missions which yester-
day voted to accept 100000 offered to the
board by John ID. Rockefeller. Two weeks
ago the prudential committee adopted the
report of a subcommittee recommending
the acceptance of the money but in view
of the strong protest made by Congrega-
tional clergy, final action was deferred until
yesterday, when a supplementary report
was made by the subcommittee
This report, together with that of two
weeks ago, was adopted The supplement-
airy report. which was made public today.
takes up the objections of the protestants
and asserts that they are not sufficient to
prevent the board from accepting the
money.
One of the principal points raised in the
report is the claim of the committee that
the American board cannot now legally
refuse Mr. ROcketellerS money because
the decisions of the highest court are to
the effect that trustees who have once ac-
cepted gift and assumed certain obliga-
tions have certain power to return the gift
and absolVe themselves from those obliga-
lions. The committee holds that by re-
turning the gift, as suggested by the pro-
testing clergymen. the American board
would be made responsible not only to
those for whose benefit the gift was de-
signed. but also to the present officers
successors.
This statement refers to the fact that
the board already has used one-half of Mr..
Rockefeler'S gift, which was actually ac-
copied February Il. The committee holds
that the action proposed by the protest
ants-namely. the return of the gift, would
have been wrong. for it would have express
ed "diSapprobation and condemnation of
man when he was doing act Of benevo-
lence."
The committee says: This would have
been to confuse the issue and to act con-
trary to the Christian spirit. To prevent
any man from doing good is a wrong way in
which to condemn him for doing evil. 1t is
as wrong to condemn him when he is doing
a good deed as to commend him when he is
doing bad deed
The committee also contends that the
board is not organized to decide questions
of temperance, economics or socialism. An
attempt at this, it says, would be an
sumption of authority outside of its char
ter.
1t is held that the return of the money
would be the passing of judgment upon
the character of the donor and the business
methods he is alleged to have used, and
that this would be wrong to the church
of which he is a member. The committee
adds: ANY accusation against him could
not, in Christian courtesy, be acted upon
until the case had first been tried before
the church which Endorses him as a MEM
Der in good and regular standing"

Negotiations Abandoned.
FORMER LEGISLATOR ARRESTED.
Charged With an Attempted Suborna-
ton of Perjury.

CHICAGO, April 12.-Accused of attempt
ed subornation of perjury in defending
disbarment proceedings, William Eugene
Brown, formerly member of the Kansas
legislature, and more recently president of
the Indiana Club of Chicago, has been ar
rested and released under bonds of so,ooo
for q hearing.
The charge was the result of representa-
tons by Charles T. Hass, detective, that
Brown had offered him $500 if he and 9TH
ers whom he might select would swear TO
certain statements which he said Brown
had admitted to him were false. support
ing Hass in his statements, Miss Mabel
Starek, a stenographer in a detective
agency, testified that she and Hass had
been instructed by Brown in rehearsal
less than hour before
The charges in the disbarment proceed
ings are very complicated, but briefly the
first count charges Brown with swindling
the American Trust and Savings Bank out
of 81 700 and the second count accuses him
of fraudulently procuring an order appoint
ing him receiver for his own property.

ST. PETERSBURG, April 12.-The radical

In it's denunciation of the bureaucracy and
it's demand for a constitution, and the SINH

feSsors have created great sensation

then forbidden to mention the meeting, and
for disobedience in referring to the attor-
neys meeting this mornins issue of the
Son of the Fatherland was confiScated.
The Russ also boldly defed the authorities
by printing the resolutions adopted by the
professors. The action of these influential
bodies served to emphasize the growing out
cry against the Bouligan commission, which
is proceeding with its work without any
representatives of the people, thus furnish
ing the liberals with justification for the
charge that the execution of the reforms
outlined in the imperial rescript is COM
pletely in the hands of the bureaucracy,
against which all classes of society are
fighting.
The bishop of Mimi Novgorod has writ
ten letter advising the boycott of the

ARCHBISHOP CHAPELLE.
Definitely Relieved of Office of Apos-
tolic Delegate to Cuba.

HAVANA, April 12.-According to news
received here Mgr. Chapelle, the archbishop
of New Orleans, has been definitely relieved
of the office of apostolic delegate in Cuba
1t seems that since Mgr. Chapelle was in
Rome last winter it had been decided at
the Vatican that he should abandon the
delegation of the Antilles but. once in
America, he wrote to the holy see asking
that this measure be postponed.
The Vatican, however, wishing to put an
end to the troubles arising from the accu-
sations of personal character against the
archbishop. has now confirmed its decision.
SO Mgr. Chapeile will not return to Cuba
and, according to what has been learned
mere from Rome, it appears that he will be
very likely substituted by a prelate of the
curia, that is, one now employed at the
Vatican.

form is imperative. Each minute of delay
increases anarchy and revolt.
1.-The government should be reformed IN
accordance with modern principles, repre-
sentatives of the people should have the
principal influence and the bureaucracy
should be relegated to minor role. The
reformed government should be- absolutely
democratic. The peoples representatives
should make the laws and control the al
ministration and the budget. All class
privileges political or religious, should be
obliterated. The principle of universal SUI
frage should be adopted, which will never
be accomplished through the bureaucracy
Consequently, the abolition of every :estric-
ton on liberty of speech, meetings and the
press should precede the convocation OF the
representatives of the peopie."
