go. Rock Islond and Pacific railroad
tcstifying this afternoon in the So
called Ogden gateway hearing before
M. A. Pattison. special examiner of

tlon with respect to Denver.

park. All but two, he said, were
routed over the Denver and Rio
Grande railroad.
On cross-examination Mr. Stewart
testified that the Rock Island line at
tached car to Denver and Rio
Grande trains through that section,
but added that 1t was not imperative
that passengers with Rock Island
tickets use those cars.
1t was also brought out in cross
examination that action similar TO
that taken by the Union Pacific is
practiced by the Rock Island lines
with respect to Colorado Springs.
Several other roads. 1t was stated

local territory in order to secure the
long haul.
Representatives OF protesting rail-
roads. various commercial and hotel
mems associations were ON the wit
ness stand durln the day. All testified
that the closing of the Ogden gate

long haul business with Denver and
Rio Grande, made by Gerrit Fort.
general passenger agent OF the Union
Pacific. at the night hearing, IL the

Presbyterian Church Growing

Data Just made public concerning the Presbyterian church, the large northern body, for last year show it to have grown rapidly along all lines, and now to stand far beyond all past records. It's mem- bership is now l,45S, ,o0O, a net increase of 42,2Oo last year, and an increase of 140,- 900 since 1909. The converts last year, in gross number, reached g, 400. Minis ters and elders keep pace in growth. and the total number of Presbyterian churches now exceeds 10,1OO Sunday school membership has reached 1.31s. 600. a number showing a steady growth as in the case of members of the church it. self
 Presbyterian finapces show similar ad- vances. Total money gifts last year were 21,6Sl,OO0. the largest in the history of the church, and an increase of more than sl,Wo0Vo year on the average since l90s This is per capita giving of al- most exactly sl9 year. the highest av- craze or any religious body in the world save one. The Protestant Episcopal per capita giving last year was $1940
 Data for Congregationalism is America has also just been made public Strong est in New England and in the north west and the Pacific coast, it's per capita giving last year was s1675 These fig ures are higher than other bodies in this or any other country Congregational membership has just passed the 750 600 mark, gain of almost exactly 100000 members in the last 10 years The gain last year was the largest for several years. but this gain was not in New Eng land, It was almost wholly in the Pa cific northwest.

Choir Mothers Disappearing

Choir mothers in Episcopal churches are disappearing and universal regret Is heard over the fact Years ago, when vested choirs were new. most boys sang without pay. Some dear old ladies or the parish, working for love of 1t, mended the vestments, combed the hair of the boys before they went into chancels; watched the young hopefuls that they be- haved themselves at least while in sight of congregations. and to keep them in heart gave them entertainments on oc- casional week nights, and in summer took them to the country for free vacations. Many choir mothers served 15 to 20 years and came to be parish institutions.
 With increasing wealth of Episcopal conversations boys singers have come to be paid in larger and larger numbers Professional musicians have come in as choir lnas asters. Boys either behave them selves or are discharged. In some large eastern cities choir schools have been founded, which give to boys possessed of promising voices good secondary educa- tions in return for singing once each week day and twice on Sundays. Often the whole country is ransacked for boys to fill these famous choirs. and receive training in these expensive and exclusive schools.
 These changes put professionalism into Episcopal choirs to an extent that drives out tne volunteer poyS ana Witi -tneHi the choir mothers who once looked after their appearance, their conduct and their character. In many instances the change is lowering the tone of the choirs, while perhaps raising the standard of the music rendered Methodist and some other churches are initiating Episcopal ones. and going through similar experiences. It is. stated that hardly fourth of the choir mothers are to be found in churches today that there we're found in their 15 years ago.

Expect Plans for Protestant Work in Mexico to Be Ratified-Much h. terest in United States in
 Episcopalian Controversy

New York. August 1.-(Special) Churches play big part in the Austro- Servian difficulty It is, however, the political rather than the Christian side that is in the playing Throughout Hun gary and Croatia, Bosnia and Herzego- vina, there is a Servian Orthodox church with 3,5o0,Oeo members that is closely al- lied with the Russian church and the Church of Servia. Its patriarch is the archbishop of Carowitz, on the Danube, iD Slavonia. The Church of Servia in dependent since 1879 as the Servan church of Hungary has been since 1743 has 4,0oO,- GOO members. Its metropolitan is the archbishop of Belgrade.
 The government of Austria is, as ev- erybody knows, Roman Catholic official, social and hierachal. While there is some degree of religious liberty, politics and ecolesiastcism have been mixed up for ages, and have helped to create and per- petuate hatred Just now, when the war declarations come. negotiations are on between the government of Servia and the pope of Rome over concordat that should grant to Roman Catholics in Ser Nlds WHO are dcllNe put not numerous, the religious and political rights guaranteed elsewhere, but long denied in Servia Bulgaria, Roumania and Turkey.

Interest in Kikiyu Controversy


 Widespread but academic, so far as can be learned. is the interest of Epis- copalians of the United States in the Klkiyu controversy. started in South Africa, but soon to come up officially before the Church of England The way it comes up is through a so-called consultative body to the archbishop of here there was stout objection to this body. and Americas representation in it. It was held by many that the Episcopal church in America has no need to be drawn into Anglican church d.sputes. Nevertheless. in left handed way, the church here is claimed to have four members in this body ad- visory to the English primate.
 This Kikiyu case involves the ques- ton whether the Anglican church Is close or open communion: whether it will or will not allow Christians of allegiance other than its own to come to the Lords supper when administered by it. At Kikiyu two American bish- ops, following the close of a missionary co invention, in which they had sat as equals. celebrated the holy commu- nion, using their own service from the Church of England Prayer Book They permitted Presbyterians and others to receive the bread and wine Another Anglican bishop not present. reported

To Push Mexican Work

so Tar as can be discovered every body seems to think that the tenta- tive plans concerning Protestant work in Mexico, made recently by officers of American missionary boards will be ratified by boards themselves at their flrst meeting this fall and later Ioy- ally supported by the various bodies. These bodies are Baptists, Methodists and Presbyterians. north and south Disciples of Christ, Congregationalists and Quakers. All agree in saving that 10 years ago such union would not have been possible. Now it is entered into with positive assurances of success
 The plan is to create an Evangelical church of Mexico. and to put into it all Protestant work supported by the American bodies named. This work is educational in large part, and is mis- sionary in all cases, save the Presbpte- rlans, who some six or eight years sionary in all cases. save the Presbyte- f1an church of Mexico. an autonomous Mexican church. Some criticisms of the Episcopal church for not Joining with others is heard in certain quar- ters. especially where it is talking 1oud- est about church unity. It Is said to have taken part in the negotiations, but to have given notice that 1t would not join in an organic way.
 These movements are a part of plans already asking for new and pros porous Mexico. These leaders believe tnat President Wilson will succeed in his plans It will mean for Mexico Roman Catholic church with eight archdiocese. an Episcopal mission wI.n bishop resident at Guadalaiara and an evangelical church. embracing all Protestant bodies. and by assigning to each body particular districts, cover ing the entire country. The evangeli- cal cn~rch is said to plan to pour into Mexico good deal of American mis- sionary money within the next five years, if peace prevail. and develop a first class university, with allied col leges, medical and social missions on the most modern scale.
