SCOPE OF REVIVAL
IS EXPLAINED TO
MINISTERS OF CITY

Placing the responsibility for the
misunderstanding upon the shoulders
of one of the members of his church.
the Rev. w. r. Motley. pastor of the
Central Christian church, gave a full
and satisfactory explanation before
the meeting of the Ministerial associ-
alton this morning regarding the tab.
ernacle meetings being conducted by
the Rev. Rollin A. Bennett, evange-
list, and his party.
Rev. Motley explained that church
members probably did not understand
the meaning of the word union" when
he used it to newspaper men and 9th
ers in referring to the tabernacle meet
ings.
Rev. Bennett and r. E. Mitchell of
Ironton, O., leader of the chorus. who
is a member OF the evangelist's party,
also spoke to the ministers giving full
information bearing on the part they
have in the meetings. and inviting the
ministers to cooperate in the move
ment.
While Rev. Motley's explanation and
the talks made by the evangelist and
Mr.. Mitchell were satisfactory, and
the subject was discussed without ILL.,
feeling or warm words on the part of
any of those present, yet 1t is under
stood that the members of the asso-
citation of pastors of individual con.
gregations will not assume an active
part in making the tabernacle meet.
ings a success as a result.
The pastors will continue to regard
the campaign as a UNCONVENTIONAL
movement, one of the officers of the
association said this morning, in view
of the fact that they had nothing to
do with the arrangements, and the
committees in charge are made up of
Christian church members.

70 The ambassador holds that this note

question which has been the grave
danger point at all times in the rela-
tionship between the two countries.
Count Won Bernstorff takes the posi-
tion that his note to Secretary Lam
sing placed Germany on record as
agreeing to protect neutral lives on
passenger steamers. He feels that
Germany has gone as far as she legit-
inately can in the concession she al
ready has made. The Arabic is an in
cident and one that can be settled
through diplomatic channels In the
opinion Of the German ambassador.

1t is understood that Ambassador
the arbitration suggestion in the Ara.
bic note simply means that Germany
is willing that The Hague should de-
termine whether she should pay In
demnity for the loss of American lives
when the Arabic was sunk. In that
connection would come of courses the
