BAPTIST GENERAL COUNCIL.
Associated Press to The Evening Times.

Washington, Dc, May 16.-Pre-
liminary steps We're taken at the Bap-
tist anniversaries in session here to-
day for the organization of Baptist
union or general council. Tomorrow
committee on organization will re-
port. and Prof. Shaler Matthews of
Chicago will address the meeting on
the functions OF the proposed organ
ization. Final action is then to be
taken, and it is freely predicted that
then, for the first time in their histo-
ry, the Baptist churches of the north
will be united in an organization
through which matters of general
Baptist interest may be considered
and the attitude of the denomination
on great moral and public questions
be expressed.
But little opposition has developed
to the plan of organization, notwith-
standing the fact that similar move-
ment some years ago met such oppo-
sition that nothing came OF it. The
new council OR union is not to be leg
islative, but, like the Congregational
national council, may merely suggest
action to the churches.

A system OF insurance for minis

William Henry Roberts, long the

be elected moderator by acclamation.
Mr.. Roberts was the leader in the
movement to bring about the union
between the Presbyterian and Cum
erland Presbyterian churches.
One of the most important meetings
OF the general assembly will be held
next Sunday, when services having
for their object the formation Of clos
err ties between laboring men and the

is about 100000. less than 100000 of
these being Cumberland Presbyteri-

R. R. PASSENGER
AGENTS FIGHT
AMONG SELVES
Immigrant Traffic Pool Ex-
posed and Due For an
Investigation.
WESTERN PASSENGER
ASSN IS INVOLVED
Vaccinations of INSCRIPTIONS
Agents Cause of the Pres
ent Trouble.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
New York, May 16.-A special meet
ing of the committee in charge of the
immigrant traffic pool Of the Western
Passenger association Is being held
here today, in an effort to bolster up
the pooling plan, which is reported to
be nearing dissolution through the
Vaccinations of unscrupulous agents.
The pooling plan was inaugurated
some years ago and had for its OBJ
ject the absolute control and equita-
BILE distribution of the routing by rail
of all immigrants arriving at New
York and other north Atlantic ports.
1t is stated that this distribution has
not been maintained and that one of
the western roads carried 10000 i'm
migrants last year in excess of its al
lOtment, through the assistance of Pc
ter Mcdonnell, acting as an independ-
ent immigration agent. Mcdonnell
formerly controlled more immigration
traffic than any other agent in the
business. After spending thousands
of dollars in attempts to put him out
of business, the roads involved in the
traffic pool employed him as their
agent. 1t Is now alleged that McDon-
nell has diverted thousands of immi-
grants from the pool to one OF the
leading western roads, thus securing
extra commissions. Other independ-
ent agents have also secured much
business and added to the dissatis-
faction of the railroad passenger
agents.
BY means of the traffic pool, there
is supposed to be made an equal di-
vision of the immigrants among the
railroads, equivalent to a division of
the profits. Each road to St. Paul or
Los Angeles or Dallas is supposedly
allotted the same number of immi-
grants annually.
Attorneys who have been inter-
viewed on the matter express the
opinion that the immigrant pooling
plan is in violation of both the anti
trust and rate laws. and If the quar-
rels among the railroad passenger Of
ficials involved do not result in the
dissolution of the pool it is likely that
the interstate commerce commission
will soon be called upon to pass on
the legality of the plan.
1t Is urged by the railroad men fa-
voring a continuation of the pool that
it is great protection to immigrants,
preventing them from falling into the
hands of unscrupulous lodging house
keepers and immigration agents in
the big eastern cities and affording
speedy transportation to their desti-
nations.

Odessa, May 16.-The European
wheat situation is regarded by COM
petent grain merchants here as being
most unfavorable. Present prices are
the highest quoted in Russia for de-
cades past. The provinces of Bessar-
abba, Poltava, Kherson and PodoMa,
where wheat is chiefly cultivated, are
gravely affected. Seventy-five per
cent of the winter crops have been
damaged by cold weather and a dry
spring. Owing to a sudden rise in
temperature fortnight ago from four
degrees below freezing point to in
tense summer heat, the entire spring
crops will be lost unless rain falls
within week.
The president of the grain bourse
attributes the present prices in Rus
sia to foreign quotations of grain,
which Russia is compelled to follow
owing to exhaustion of her stocks.
The prospect of crop failure, however,
has not caused any speculation in

AsDoctatea Press to The Evening Times.
Columbus, O., May 16.-Nearly a
thousand delegates and hundreds of
additional visitors participated today
in the inaugural session of the 18th
general assembly of the Presbyterian
church of the United States. All of
the meetings will be held in the audi
torium, which has seating capacity
of over 5000. DR.. Ira Landrith, mod
orator of the Cumberland Presbyte-
rian church last year, delivered the
opening sermon. OF the thousand del
egates present, nearly one-third rep
resent the Cumberland church.
AS this is the first session of the
general assembly since the union with
the Cumberlands was formed, much
time will be spent in arranging the
ment of the relations between the
merged bodies. Much of the prelimi-
nary work has already been accom-
plished. but many important matters
are yet pending and will be fully
considered by the general assembly.
The consolidation of the separate syn
DDS and presbyteries OF the two
churches will involve many minute
distinctions, some of which may be
settled by general rules, while others
will require individual adjustment.
Measures for merging the boards of
home and foreign missions and har-
monizing the educational and pub
fishing interests will be passed upon
by the delegates. 1t Is expected that
the final consummation OF the union
will find many Cumberlands unwill-
ing to desert the old organization.
Several other presbyterles have ap-
pealed to the general assembly for
permission to join the United Presby-
terian body. This movement has only

recently been inaugurated, but is dali
ly growing in strength.
Another matter brought up in the
general assembly today Is a PROPOSE
ton to consolidate Presbyterian edu-
cational institutions, including Nc
Cormick Theological seminary in Chi
cago, Western Theological seminary
in Pittsburg, and Lane Theological
seminary in Cincinnati. The three in
stitutions own property aggregating
millions of dollars In value and grad
uate each year the majority of the
young clergymen for the Presbyterian
pulpit.
Plans for the immediate evangelical
tion of the entire world. adopted at
the recent Intersynodical Foreign
Mission convention in Omaha, were
recommended to the general assembly
today by the delegates from that
body and will be thoroughly consid-
cred. The resolutions presented set
forth that the Presbyterian church is
directly responsible for the Christian
izing of the hundred millions of hea-
then and Mohammedans; that to meet
this great responsibility the field
force should be at once increased to
1000 American missionaries; that the
carrying out of the plans will re-
quire an annual expenditure of at
least $6.000,O00 a year. 1t is recon-
mended that the church be trans
formed primarily into great mis-
sionary society, which shall have for
its great object the preaching of the
gospel to every creature.

which was organized last October in
indianapolis. has presented a petition
seeking the recognition and approval
