SIDES WITH DR.. CRAPSEY.
Pastor of Rich Milwaukee Church
Deems Verdict a Blot

MILWAUKEE, December 17.-Rev Will

aligned himself with the adherents of DR..
Alsernon S. Crapsey, who was recently
convicted by a church court of heresy and
deposed.
IF that decision" he said becomes the
decision of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, many of the clergy would be
tempted to lay down their ministry to find
a freer atmosphere in which to serve
Christ. The truth or falsity of the doctrine
of the virgin birth is matter of historical
criticism, and heresy trials cannot make

palians, but who really are Romanists, the
church did not drive them out, but allows
them to try their vagares on human ma

II had hoped that the court of review in
New Yorw city might find it possible under
the canons of the church to reverse the de-
cisonS of the diocese of western New York
and remove what seems to me a ter
rible blot upon our name. That court we
must remember, was not court of appeal
it was merely a court of review, and I'M
der the existing canons it seemed power

THAT decision, we must also bear in
mind not the decision of the whole

one diocese only. And yet it does fairly
represent the opinion of a considerable
number of Alersymen, bishops and lay

CARNEGIE CASH WORKS EVIL.
Gift to Scotch Universities Denounced
as Demolalizing Students.

LONDON, December 17-Prof. Sir Will
liam Japp Sinclair of Victoria University,
Manchester, in a speech at Aberdeen voiced
the numerous severe complaints of the evil
effect of Andrew Carnegie's gift of s1O.-
100000 to the Scottish universities He said
that he had never met an Aberdeen gradu-
ate who did not denounce the influence of
the gift.
1t is learned from other sources that the
provision whereby any Scottish student
may apply to the Carnegie trust for fees
has been interpreted with such latitude that
even some coored students have received
aid. The practical effect of the gift was
that majority of students at all the Scot
fish universities had drawn fees from the
trust fund. many of them squanderfng the
money supplied by their parents and con-
cealing the fact that they received help
from the fund.
1t is also asserted that the university pro-
fesSors, in view of the students receiving
these donations, have raised their tutorial
fees and become less earnest in performing
their duties. 1t is declared that the Scot
fish student is losing his self-reliance and
capacity for study under difficulties and
that the whole nature of Scottish university
training is undergoing change for the
worse.

of this brief article to advocate the

FRISCO RING IN TERROR.
Important Witness Missing and May
Be Shanghaied

SAN FRANCISCO, December 17-Those
in control of the municipal administration
in this city have become desperate. 1t was
said Saturday that the municipal crib in
Jackson street was about to be reopened in
order to close the mouth of the manager
and part owner of that institution, whose
appearance before the grand jury struck
terror into the hearts of his accompices in
the administration
"Open up again, if that will satisfy you"
the officials are reported to have said to
this man. Today it is asserted that the
principal witness against the ring in con-
nection with the printing graft scandal
either has been murdered or shanghaed.
December Max Wolmer, a partner in the
Greater San Francisco Printing Company
left his office at % IeavenWorth street to
get shaved. He has never returned. His
relatives are distracted, and his brother is
now travelling from town to town trying to
find him.
Womer is the man who informed the in
quisitors of the dongs of the printing ring
which obtained the city contracts by al
lowing the city officials a rake-off. Before
the fire he was a bookkeeper for a printing
concern and was in position to know the
details of the city contracts made by that
firm. After the fire he resigned his posi-
ton and invested his savings in the Greater
San Francisco Printing Company.
Wolmer's partners believe he has been

sure brought to bear on him after the news

hopes to block the investigation by remov-

He told enough before his disappearance to
involve deeply certain supervisors and
members of the municipal printing com
mttee.
The board of supervisors is quarreling
with the relief corporation, and has passed

collecting nominal rent from the refugees
who are inhabiting huts in the parks. The
amount collected So month and the
understanding was that the corporal ton
would return the sums paid in when the
