OPPOSITION DEVELOPING TO
COMING OF BILLY SUNDAY
AMONG ATLANTA MINISTER'S

ATLANTA, Ca, April 11.-SOme OF
the utteranees of Billy Sunday in the
opening sermons of his three-months
revival in New York, as reported in
press dispatches, are causing noticea-
Bile uneasiness among the ranks OF
the famous eyangelist's admirers who
are anxious to bring him to this city,
and who have induced the evangelical
ministers of Atlanta to open negotia-
lions with him.
One of the most remarkable of these
utterances was Sundays description OF
the dance of the daughter of Herodias
for the head of John the Baptist,
wherein the evangelist declared that
"she didn't have on enough clothes to
flag hand-car and pirouetted around
before that bunch of souses with her
leg stuck out like quarter to twelve
until the old buck Herod said, Sis,
you're a peach and you can have any
thing you want"
On the arrival of William Jennings
Bryan in Atlanta to deliver a lecture,
a friend of Sunday who claims to be
entirely disinterested in his activities
looking to revival contract escorted
the erstwhile apostle of world peace
from the railroad station to meeting
OF the evangelical ministers and had
him say word of Endorsement for the
sensational preacher.
