AGREES TO AMENDMENT.
Government Reserves Right to Judge
of Water Taken From Niagara.

Washington. May 2.-The House COM
rnittee on rivers and harbors today agreed
to amendment to the bill for the
preservation of Niagara Falls calculated
to meet the demands of the Chicago
drainage canal. The amendment estab-
fishes the principle that the United States
government reserves the right to be the
sole judge, so far as other nations are
concerned, of the amount of water to be
taken from the great lakes for sanitary
or domestic purposes. The quantity is
to be fixed. so far as the domestic users
are concerned, either by congressional
act or regulation by the secretary of war.
The bill will not deal with the amount
that may be used at Chicago. Other
features of the bill were considered BY
the committee this afternoon

Coming to Vienna.

Vienna. May 22.-According to the Zeit,
lieutenant General Palatzyn, schief of the
Russian general staff, is coming to
Vienna in June to study the organization
OF the Austro- Hungarian army. The
newspaper goes on to connect this visit
with that of Liertenant General Count
Won Moltke, chifi of the general staff
OF the German army, and suggests that
il is highly important as pointing to a
military convention between Russia, Ger
many and Austria, from which Italy will
be excluded. The Zeit adds that the sub
iect probably will be discussed during En-
peror williams approaching visit to EN-
peror Frances Joseph.

Of Old Charge
SPECIAL ORDER FOR TO-DAY
Report of Committee on Closer Rela.
tons Will Be Discussed at II
O'Clock This Morning-Ma-
jority Report Submitted.

Greenville, S. c., May 22.-The general
assembly of the Southern Presbyterian
church today took up the consideration
OF the Caldwell heresy case. The argu-
ments on the case continued through the
afternoon, and it is expected they will be
heard through large part of tomorrow s
sessions The action of the Synod of
Texas i'm suspending DIR. w. e. Caldwell
from the pastorate of the First Presby-
terian church of Fort Worth was the sub
ject under consideration and the opinion
IS expressed tonight that the assembly
will overrule the action of the synod and
renstate Dr. Caldwell as pastor of the
church.
The report of the committee on closer
relations, which was submitted to the as
sembly today was made the special order
for II o'clock tomorrow morning. A ma
jority report was submitted which IA
vored the decision of what is known as
the Charlotte conference which recon-
mended the establishment of an eccle-
siastical council to be known as 1.-The
Council of the Reformed Churches in
America Holding the Presbyterian Sys-
tenn" The object of such council was
to promote "closer relations and more eff
fectve administrative cooperation among
these churches" A minority report also
was submitted, signed by six of the thir-
teen members Of the committee. This re-
pert objected to the adoption of the ma
jority report, largely on the ground that
the plan proposed would be too compli-
Gated and too expensive. that the same
objects might be accomplished more sim
ply and more speedily and because the
course recommended In the Charlotte con-
ference probably would result in the ex-
tension of the church as an independent
organization
Atlanta has been decided upon as the
location of the newly formed executive
hoard.
