Committee to Submit Report.

When the special committee drafts a
workable system it will be submitted to
both bodies for ratification. 1t was made
plain at the meeting yesterday that a
smoothly working plan of union between
the chamber and the retailers could not
be effected until the plans of the retail
ers had been more definitely settled. AS
a consequence the officers of the retail
ers' association will present their ideas
definitely and, in conjunction with the
two members of the chambers board of
directors. will draw up report to De
submitted to the organizations.
It is hoped that the special committee
will have completed its work within the
next two months.

ANNOUNCES HIS
RESIGNATION IN
JUBILEE SERMON
DR.. F. w. Hook, Pastor of Second
German Presbyterian Church,
to Spend Time Teaching.

There was a touch of sadness in the
Second German Presbyterian Church,
which began yesterday, when at the
service last evening the Rev. DR.. Fred
erick w Hook. who has occupied the
pulpit of the Second fifteen years, an
nounced his impending resignation. He
leaves to devote all his time to the
teaching of modern languages at stew
ems Institute. Hoboken. The announce
ment came as a painful surprise to
many members of the flock, for DR..
Hook enjoys great popularity with his
parishioners.
After asking his congregation to join
him in asking the Newark Presbytery
to dissolve his pastoral relations with
the Second Church. and thanking them
for the loyal support he has been given
in his fifteen years Of labor among
them, DIR. Hook said:
ut is with intense regret I leave
this charge, but a fifteen-year fight on
the firing line calls for a change, es-
pecialy because your new church viii
need a new man. God has blessed US
richly"
Large Attendance sat Services.
When the opening services of the
jubilee were held yesterday the con-
gregation completely filled the church.
At the evening service many were COM
PEELED to stand. The Rev. John Mac
Dowel, pastor OF the Park Presbyte-
rian Church. delivered the sermon at
this service and a special musical pro-
gram was renderd.
An interesting feature of the morning
service was the presence of ten mem
bers who attended Sunday school In the
church in 1860. They were conveyed to
the church In carriages and occupied q
place of honor near the pulpit.
Or. Hook delivered a historical SER
mon at the morning service, taking
his text from Revelations. 8. viii;
"Behold / said before thee an open
door and no man can shut It."
The sermon characterized the faith
full services of the first two pastors,
the Revs Carl H. Theberath and Her

ofiiciated from 1858 to 1858. He then

makes thereby confession. He con-
fesses his limitation. He is either at

Unless we have weighed the possible
