BISHOP BLACK.

New York, Oct. e.-The action Of the
New York presbytery yesterday in ad-
hitting Rev. Archibald Black to the
ministry despite the accusations Of
extreme liberalism brought against
him, will be hotly contested by a num-
Der OF prominent New York pastors.
At the close of the meeting Of the
presbytery q meeting Of the dissent
ing members was held. and It was de-
cided to make formal protest to the
synod Of which the New York presby-
terry is a part. The meeting drew up
formal articles OF protest stating that
objections were raised against Mr..
Black on the ground that he rejected
the infallibility of supreme authority
OF the Scriptures as rightfully de-
termining his faith; that he said he
did not know as to the virgin birth:
that he doubted the raising OF Laza-
rus from the dead, and the physical
resurrection Of the body from the
grave.

Stock Market.

New York, oct. Considering the
enormous liquidation that developed
today prices did not lose much ground.
Sentiment was more bearish than we
have seen it for months and despite
this attitude stocks were bought In
large volumes on the weak spots.
There is very little doubt that the
short interest has well extended by
today's operations and with the clos
ing out of numerous weak accounts
we feel confident that the reaction has
run its course. The increase in the
Atchison dividend to per cent basis
made a good impression and further
developments along this line can be
looked for. We expect good recov-
cry from the present break and adj
wise the purchase Of stocks.
