HUDSON CHASSIS
DISCUSSES ROW
Members Stand Out in Cold
While Rev. Vanden Henvel
Case Is Argued.

PASSAIC, Jan. 12.-Lively scenes
were enacted around the Hope Ave-
nue. Reformed Church, in Passaic, last
night, when the Chassis of the Hudson
met there for the purpose OF consider
ing the reinstatement of Rev. A. j.
yanden Heuvel, as pastor of the North
side Reformed Church. The Chassis
mot at 9 o'clock and got through with
its deliberations after 1 o'clock this
morning.
Long before the session was called
to order large delegations for and
against Rev. Mr.. Vanden Heuvel, be-
gan to arrive at the Hope avenue
church. John Ward headed the dele
cation which is in favor of Rev. VAN
den Heuvel, but he was not admitted.
Entrance was also refused to those
who came with him and all that they
could do was to stand outside In tho
cold night air and shiver while the
clergymen and delegates to the Chassis
considered the business before them.
The only representatives from the
Northside Church who were admitted
were Nicholas Hornstra and Herbert
Prince. These two are members OF
the old consistory of the Northside
Church and they stand by the deci-
sion of the Chassis. that Rev. Vanden
Heuvel must go.
While no definite action was taken
on the matter last night, it was the
consensus of opinion of the olassis
that those members who are opposed
to the present arrangements should
not attend church at the North-side
edifice next Sunday. In other words,
the Chassis does not want those kind
of members.

WILL LET WILSON DO 1T.
Pres.-Elect Will Appoint Ambassador
To England to Replace Reid.


Washington, Dec. 16.-Presfdent Taft,
today announced through Sec. Hilles
that the post of ambassador to. Great
Britain made vacant by the death OF
Whiteiaw Reid will not be filled by
him. This announcement followed an
early morning conference between the
President and Secretary Knox.
Several reasons We're given for the
Presidents decision. He believes that
the important diplomatic questions in
volving Great Britain and the United.
States can be handled successfully in
Washington by Mr.. Knox and James
Bryce, the British ambassador. He
understands that President-eleet Will
son already is considering a man for
the London post and he does not wish
to appoint some one, who can serve
at best for only a few months.
Z The post at London will now be va
cant until March, and it will be the
first time in many years that the Unit
cd States has been without an ambas-
sador in London.
British Ambassador Bryce, today,
received from Sir Edward Grey, Brit
ish secretary of state for foreign af-
fairs, the following message OF con-
dolence which the embassy transmitted
to the. state department.:
"YCu should express the deep sympa-
thy Of Ills Majesty's government and
their great regret at the death of Mr..
Wh:telaw Reid. He had endeared HIM
self personally to everyone here who
knew him. We feel that we have lost a
friend and We sympathize sincerely
and deeply with the United States in
the loss that has befallen them"
