\ Monday meeting OF Methodist min
isters, crowding a large hall and includ-
ing most occupants of Methodist pulpits
of the New York metropolitan district,
showed an almost unanimous sentiment
in favor of the Biblical criticism which
is claimed is sweeping over the Chris
tian world The Rev Dr George p.
Mains, one of the four agents of the
Methodist book concern. declared in re-
cent address before the same ministers
that the Paper Pope of Professionalism"
an infallible Bible TO be not fallible at
all, and more than Reformation period
people believed the pope of Rome to be.
He said that some of the Bible is fact
and some of 1t fiction; that separating
the two has strengthened both, and that
the higher critics have fought and won
their battle.
At the Monday meeting Just held, when
the speaker was the Rev. DR. ]. b. Ham
lton brother of Bishop Hamilton of
Boston, and himself foremost minister
of American Methodism, defense of the
Bible as it has been was coldly received.
Personal points made by the speaker
were at times appauded, but the speaker
was severely arraigned in private after
the meeting for bringing in the Meth
cdist restrictive rules, and charging that
they forbid the tampering with the
Bible, in which he declares the Metho-
dist book concern to be doing. In the
discussion which followed only one min
lister came to his defense. and the de-
fence of the Bible as Methodists have
heretofore upheld it.
In the discussion referred to, three of
the foremost Methodist preachers and Of
fieisls in the church spoke. One of them,
the Rev. DR. John T Mcfarland. editor
of the Sunday school literature of the
Methodist church. openly said he pre-
sented the higher criticism 10 children
and their teachers The others, the Rev.
DR.. David G. Downey, book editor Of
the church, himself a candidate for bish-
op last year, and the Rev Dr. James
NJ. Buckley, the veteran editor, talked
against the time. and failed to defend
the old Bible Methodist ministers and
leaders were present from as far distant
as Philadelphia and Boston. Some came
to take part in the discussion but none
came to the Bibles defense. Surprise is
whether Methodists as whole take such
advanced critical ground and whether
ministers of other Protestant bodies in
America are keeping up with them.
