REV. DIR. c. A. VINCENT
INSTALLED AS PASTOR
Ministers Take Part in Impressive
Ceremony at Mount Pleasant
Congregational Church.
DOCTRINAL SERMONS PREACHED

With an impressive ceremony. Rev. DIR.
Charles A. Vincent was installed as
pastor Of Mount Pleasant Congregational
Church yesterday afternoon at a full
meeting OF the Congregational Council
that takes in Baltimore and Washington.
The charge to the new pastor was de-
livered by Rev. Jay T. Stocking. while
greetings from the churches in the coun-
Gil were conveyed by the Rev. DR..
Charles Wood. pastor Of the Church OF
the Covenant. The charge to the people
was delivered by the Rev. S. NJ. New
man. and the principal sermon by the
Rev. DIR. Charles r. Brown. moderator
of the National Council. The installation
prayer was offered by the Rev. DR.. Oh
liver Huckel. of Baltimore. The right
hand Of fellowship was extended by the
Rev. J. w. Frizzell. There was a mu-
sicale in the evening. In his doctrinal
sermon DIR. Vincent said. in part:
''Christ's pre-eminence appears when
He defines sin and deals with It. Accord
ing to Jesus, sin is the placing of ones
own will in opposition to the will and
purpose of God, of selfishness in the place
of love and duty. OF wrong in place Of

right. and even of putting good in place
Of the best.
The church Of Christ is the name Of
that company Of people in heaven and
on earth who are loyal to Christ and in
whom the spiritual work of Christ is go
ing forward. 1t follows no humanity
marked and visible limits.
The rankest heresy that can curse the
church is that which substitutes any
thing-new truth or old-for a loving
self-sacrificing, steady. courageous and
joyful service to others II seems to me
that one of the most dangerous things
in the Chrustian church is to discuss
instead of preach. to fight instead of
minister.
Il have come to Washington with q
pure desire to work in harmony with all
who love God and who. in the spirit Of
the Master, serve their fellow men. There
is a common enemy to be fought and We
should be one in our front against the
hosts of evil"

Worried over TOLLS
SITUATION IN SENATE
Presidents Friends Admit Group of
Republicans Hold Key to
Situation.
DEBATE MAY LAST SIX WEEKS

The bill repeating the legislation ex-
empting coastwise vessels from tolls will
reach the Senate today and will be re-
ferred at once to the Committee on Inter
oceanic Canals.
No meeting Of that committee has yet
been called, but Il is likely that notices
will be issued today for a meeting.
The administration leaders admit that
they are concerned over the situation in
the Senate. The claim put forward by
the Presidents friends is that they have
| clear majority of two. This is admit
tedly too close for comfort"
The Presidents friends admit the key
to the situation is held by a small CO.
terie OF regular Republicans They also
are doubtful about one or two Progress
sive Republicans, particularly Senator
Gronna. Of North Dakota, who had been
| supposed to De in favor of repeal, but
who. within a few days, has appeared to
waver. Senator Gronna Is a close friend
Of Senator La Toilette. and the wiscon-
sin Senator APPARENTLY Is opposed to the
repeal.
On the Democratic side the leading
opponents OF repeal are Senators O'Gor-
| man, Chamberlain. Walsh. Ransdell, Var
| daman. and MARITIME. There are many
wavering Senators who probably will line
and Newlands are in this class. They arc
nearer the Pacific Coast. and subject 10
! the influences that control the represen-
tatives from that locality. But both arc
expected to line up finally with the Presi-
dent.
The Progressive Republicans almost %
a man are opposed to the repeal. Senator
Borah and Senator Poindexter will fight
repeal. The administration will have
strong support from Senators Root.
Lodge. McCumber. Burton. and Suther-
land.
Any poll made OF the Senate at this
time would not be reliable. One thing is
certain-the question will not be brought
to a vote in the Senate as carly as the
President and his friends expect Older
and more experienced legislators say that
at least a month will be consumed in
debate. and opponents of the repeal bill
predict the struggle will be drawn out
for six weeks at the least

SPECIAL to The Washington Herald.
New York. March 3l.-A Washington
dispatch to The Globe says:
When President Wilson made changes
in the inscriptions which now appear in
front of the Washington Postoffice Build
ing. he was not aware that he was cor
recting the work of DIR. Charles W. Eliot,
president emeritus of Harvard.
DIR Eliot was selected by the archi-
tects of the building to prepare the in
srriptions. and when he had done so sent
them to the supervising architect of the
Treasury, who without explanation turn
ed them over TO Secretary McAdoo for
approval
MIR. McAdoo thought the President the
best equipped man to pass upon the
work. and II was sent to the White
House, with the authors name till un-
known. President Wilson made the
changes he deemed necessary and sent
them back to the Secretary.
Then for the first time Mr.. McAdoo
learned Or. Eliot was the author. But

Surrender Not Confirmed.

Federal re-enforcements from SaltillO
reached Torreon yesterday. according to
advices received at the State Department
last night from Consul Hamm, at Du-
range.
the third telegram received from that Of
fetal yesterday. the three messages con-
stituting practically the first official news
the State Department has received on
the situation at Torreon since the fight
ing began.
The first two messages were dated Mon
day and stated that the federals were
then reported to be evacuating Torreon.
The third message, received last night,
stated that the two messages sent yester-
day were premature. and that the reports
upon which they were based were unre-
liable. The consul added in his third
message that federal re-enforcements
were then arriving at Torreon.
The surmise here last night was that
unofficial reports from the border might
have had the same basis as Consul
Hamm's first two kilograms.
The re-enforcements spoken Of in Con-
sui Hamm's last message are presumed
to be the force of 5000 men which was
reported to have left Saltillo on Thurs
day or Friday Of last week to aid Gen.
Velasco at Torreon. Torreon is but 800
miles west of SaltiIlo.
Military men here consider that II the
State Departments reports regarding re-
endorsements arriving at Torreon are
correct, the chances of Villas taking the
city are very materially reduced.

ROADS TO STOP ALLOWANCES.
Carrier. VIII Cease Dividing with
Industrial Lines.

Beginning today the carriers east OF
the Mississippi River and north OF the
Ohio and Potomac Rivers will cease pay
ing allowances to industrial lines and will
retain in their own treasury the full
rate, instead of making generous divi-
sions with the industrial lines.
Recently the Interstate Commerce
Commission handed down an opinion
in what is known as the Industrial line
case; particularly relating to industrial
lines owned or controlled by the United
States Steel Corporation and other large
iron and steel concerns, and in this opin-
ion these allowances were designated as
rebates.
The commission stated that II the car
riers were to discontinue the allowances
it would add more than $l5,000,Ooo year
to their revenue.
Yesterday the commission issued an
order which, in effect formally approves
the cancellations to all the lines men,
toned in the Industrial line case After
the commission had handed down its
opinion IT informed the carriers that they
must also cancel out allowances to other
industrial lines and this the carriers did.
