BURNS WARNS LABOR PARTY.
Must Not Cut Itself OF From All Men Who
Have Not Been Manual Laborers.
Special Gable Despatch 10 THE SUN

Special Gable Despatch TO THE SUN.
LONDON, May 26.-John Burns has been
repeatedly and bitterly attacked by a large
section Of tho laborities, especially those
who constitute the new Labor party, whose
aims are conspicuously narrow and selfish
In an after dinner speech last night Mr..
Burns addressed himself TO these mon.
He frankly warned them that they were a
danger to their own cause. Thu following
passage in his speech has attracted great at
tention and caused no little sensation:
MY last word Ia this, and it requires
come little moral courage to say it: view
with positive disfavor, and if it does not
cease with some apprehension. the ten
dency on the part of what is known as the
labor moeement to isolate itself from men
who are not manual laborers, For labor
to deliberately, narrowly and foolishly cut
itself off from the best n brightest spirits
Of mankind simply because they have
not been hewers of wood and drawers Of
water ia to cut off the power for it's own
advancement in the near future and in
fict upon itself a disability which one day 1t
will find the folly and mistake of doing"

PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY MARKS
OFF GEO. W. DICKEY.

He Was DR.. Carson's Assistant in Brooklyn
When He Dlsappeared-Later He Turni
Up Running an Episcopal Mission. but
He Hasn't Yet Taken New Orders
DIES MONIES, Ia; May e.-The Presby.
terrain General Assembly discovered to-day
that a Presbyterian minister who has beer
missing from his p~resbytery for several
months was located in Brooklyn, N. Y. In
the Episcopal Church.
The committee on church policy reported
on an overture from the presbytery Of Al
bany, N. Y, seeking permission to erase
from its rolls, the name of George w. Dickey,
a minister who had been missing and who
could not be located.
Moderator Corbett was about TO put the
question when a tall commissioner in the
rear OF the hall rose to his feet and said:
why, l had a letter from Dickey to-day.
He's not missing
Where is he9. asked the moderator.
Hes In Brooklyn in the Episcopal
Church"
Then that's all the more reason his name
should be erased"
The assembly voted unanimously to allow
the presbytery of Albany to erase Mr..
Diokey's name.
When seen at his residence, I Hart street:
Brooklyn, last night Mr.. Dickey admitted
that he had been expecting some such ac-
ton on the part Of the Presbyterian As
sembly.A
Mr.. Dickey went to Brooklyn about
two and a half years age as assistant to the
Rev. DR.. John F. Carson, pastor Of the Gen.
trail Presbyterian Church, in Jefferson ave-
nue..
He was we'll liked by the practitioners
and much regret wa expressed on all sides
when he left the church a year ago last
July without giving any reasons for his
it was said that he was a sufferer from hay
fever and always went to the mountains in
July.
Mr.. Diokey is now in charge Of st. .Iydia's
Church, a small Episcopal mission in New
Lots avenue in East New York, which was
established about a rear ago. He is about
e5 years old and unmarried.
The Rev. DR.. Spencer s. Roche, rector
Of st. Marks Chuoh, who Is also chair
man of the Board Of Examining Chaplains
Of the Episcopal Diocese OF Long Island,
said last night that he had known Mr.;
Dickey for over a year and that he had
his fullest comnerdation and respect.
MIR. Dickey is not a priest Of the Epis-
copal Church, he said, NOR is he theoreti-
oally or actually a candidate for orders
in the church. l take it, however, that
he aims to join the priesthood. He is
Of the diocese. He Is a graduate OF the
Princeton Theological Seminary, where he
took high honors in metaphysics and kim
dred studies.

POPE TO ACCEPT FRENCH PLAN.
Belief That Religious Associations WIN he
Approved After bishops Assembly.

Special Cable Dsspdtea TO TIE sun.
PARIS, May pa general assembly of
French Bishops will be held on Wednesday.
at which the Pope will submit the question
whether Il is desirable to accept the scheme
Of religious associations provided for by
the separation Law. 1t seems probable. ac-
cording to the opinion Of high ecclesiastics.
that on receiving the BishAps' referendum
the Pope will recommend that they accept
the plan.
In view Of the result Of the elections
leading Church officials consider that it is
advisable, on patriotic as we'll as religious
grounds. to give the associations scheme
a fair trial. To ignore the law would only
lead to civil war. There is no hope that
such resistance would lead to the signing
OF a new Concordat. Lately the danger
at schism involved by the acceptance Of the
religious associations would be still greater
in their absence, when the Church would be
obliged to depend on the generosity Of indi-
viduals, who would inevitably exercise a
great influence in the Church.
1t is further pointed out in the Steele that
the Pope's ~postponement Of a decision until
after the elections merely indicates a Ger
tain Difference to the national will.

GeneraI Assembly Of the Presbyterian
Church concluded its labors at 8 O'Clock
this afternoon. The commissioners are
practically unanimous In declaring that
Il has been one of the most important ses-
sions since the establishment Of the Church
upon American soil 200 years ago. .
The closing day was one Of the busiest
!. ~ the session and one Of the most interest
ing. Upon the showing made by the twelve
P~resbyterian semiraries there are but 600
students. with 100 teachers, and last year
there we're 1856 graduates.
The assembly to-day launched a move,

Is proposed to do away with one-haf OF

A resolution was approved and sent to
the dissenting members OF the Cumoer-

Its introduction caused a lively tilt be-
tween the Rev. William Laurie, the oppo-
nent Of union, and ex-Moderator Moffit;

"A st. Louis paper is not official with the
Presbyterian Church." ~retorted Mr.. Moffitt,
'sBut it states a fact, and you can't get
away from it," replied Mr., Laurie, as he
shook his fist at Mr.. Mofftt.
There were more words when the audi.
ence finally yelled Mr.. Laurie down and
passed the resolution. ~
The assembly refused to take the words
eternal torments' out OF the confession OF
faiths

and why should we take out the wordsT'

An interesting report was that on mileage,
which shows that $3l sl1 80 has been spent

mittee has SIS, 712.4 AZ on hand for entertain
ment expenses and $40 ,s7s.S5 for contingent
expenses. An assessment Of 7 cents for
each member Of the church is recommended
for next year to pay Assembly expenses.
This report showed that there were 500
commissioners at the present Assembly,

NATAL CHIEFS STILL IN REVOLT.
Only One OF Five Who Met Last Week An.
nounced His Loyalty.

Special Gable Despatch 10 THE SUN.
LONDON, May 26.-The situation in Natal
remains obscure. Little news comes through,
but early in the week there seemed a like
lihood that several leading chiefs would
lay down their arms. OF the five chiefs who
met on Tuesday only one announced his
loyalty to the Government and ordered his
men to disarm. Two others have since
been organizing raids in zululand.
The rebellion continues to draw support
from the natives, who want to fight each
other as well as those who want to fight
the whites. This adds to the difficulty Of
suppressing it.
