GENERAL ASSEMBLY
FULLY ORTHODOX

Louisville, KY, May 22.-What was
taken to be an inference by the Rev.
DR.. Alexander Henry, of Philadelphia,
that one or more members of the
board of publication and Sunday
school work were not orthodox, pro-
voked quick response today from
members of the general assembly of
the Presbyterian church. Names of
the heterodox ones were called for.
One commissioner declared that
any member of the board who had to
take mental reservation in his accept
ance of the church's doctrine. should
at once resign.
Moderator Matthews sternly for
bade any challenge of any mans orth-
odoxy on the floor of the assembly,
pointing out that the charges must
be made before the proper tribunal
of the church.
DR.. Henry Strengthened matters by
explaining he had not intended to
convey any inference and expressed
his unquestioned belief in the integ-
rity of the orthodoxy of every board
member.

assailed former President Roosevelt
in bitter terms and referred in almost
as bitter fashion to the leaders of his
own party, including Speaker Clark
and Governor Wilson, to whom he al
luded as "Parson Wilson"
Mr. Dies foresaw the crumbling OF
the republic, the eventual rule of the
mob, and assigned as the causes the
growth of demagoguery and the in
flux of ignorant immigrants from
southern Europe.
Tracing the history of Rome,
Greece, Italy, France and down to
the present day in Mexico, the Texan
expressed his fervent hope that his
tory might repeat itself under Teddy

cause of his victory in Ohio yester-
day would sweep the country" in the

Mr.. Dies attributed to Ignorance at
home and cowardice here" his con-
viction that the republic was going
ahead at the present time more and
more slowly by reason only of its ac-
quired momentum"
He attacked Speaker Clark and Ma
jority Leader Underwood for their
alleged failure to sustain the old
democratic principles. In like vein
and for the same reason he assailed
Minority Leader Mann and Represen-
tative Dalzell of Pennsylvania for
what he charged was desertion from
their political faith.
Berger Is the biggest man in the
bunch,' he said, referring to the lone
socialist member. He is heading to-
ward socialism, while you are backing

At the Rebel Front. Rellano. Mex,
May 22.-(9 p. m.)-The main col
umns of the rebels fortified here were
attacked late today by the federals.
In thirteen troop trains the federals
moved uD to within one mile and a
half of Rellano and began a terrific
shelling. The first few shells exploded
within a few feet of the rebel troops,
but killed only few horses. One wo-
man was killed in the town.
General Orozco came down from
Jiminez to take personal charge Of
the fight just before the federals at
tackled at O'Clock. General Salazar
was in command of the first rebel
line. The federal command of Gener-
ais Trucy Aubert, Rabago and Telles
and Colonels villa and Urbina are en-
gagged. The federal force Is estimated
at $500 and the rebel at 1000 with
the advantage in fortified positions
being in favor of the insurrectos.
While the federal artillery poured
shell after shell into the rebel posi-
tons. rebel cavalr-y moved to one side
in a thanking movement at the same
time running a heavy fire into the fed-
eral columns.
Casualties up to s o'clock tonight
were remarkably few. There is every
prospect that the battle which has so
long been awaited, will not be decid-
ed tonight, but on the morrow.
There was no change in positions
at nightfall. The infantry fire after
dark was desutory but that of the
federal artillery was almost continu-
Gus.
Firing practically ceasec at 81
o'clock. AT rebel headquarters IL Is
estimated that twenty rebels and fif-
ty federals were killed.
