Get No Information

PEKING. May % (By The As
ISOLATED Press) At the foreign le-
cations today it was said that for
IS hours no information had come
from Lincheng regarding the Shan
tung bandits and their foreign cap
tives.
There have been no replies to the
last two notes which the diplomatic
corps served ON the foreign office
Both notes insisted emphatically on
the release of the foreigners and the
last communication expressed aston
ishment at the Chinese governments
failure to accomplish anything.
Government sources indicate that
among Chinese officials opinion is
divided on the course to pursue in
view of the legations insistence that
no force be employed in rescuing
captives lest they be harmed in re-
taliation.
Foreign and Chinese opinion gen.
orally discounts the governments ef-
forts to obtain the captives' peace
ably. 1t is pointed out that in the
last analysis the decision rests on
Marshal Tsao Kun, head of the
Chill military party.

ANOTHER Arrested WITH CONE
ON CHARGES OF BR|BER
DR.. STRATON CAUSES UPROAR
At BAPTIST CONVENTION

ATLANTIC CITY. May 23.-Dr
John Roach Stratton, pastor of the
Calvary church, New York City
caused the opening session of the
Northern Baptist convention this
morning to be thrown in an uproar
when he objected to the presence of
President w. II. p. Faunce, of
Brown University, Providence, r. L
DIR. Faunce is said to be inclined
to liberal tendencies while DR.. Stra-
ton is a leading fundamentalist. The
president of Brown University was
an announced speaker. No sooner
had the session opened than the
New York pastor asked for the floor
and startled the convention by ask
ing that the college president be
taken off the program. DIR. Straton
particularly opposed DIR. Faunce be-
cause of the liberal practice at
Brown University which does not
require teacher to sign his beliefs
regarding a Baptist creed, but allows
individual Interpretation.
d. Straton was greeted with y
roar OF disapprovay and Kisses. His
action was most unexpected and
threw the delegates in confusion.
There were only a few scattering
supporters of DR.. Straton while ao-
plause and cheering greeted DR..
Faunce when he arose to speak.
1t was considered an overwhelm-
ing victory for the progressives, or
modernites. over the fundamental
lists. DIR. Straton has been in the
newspapers lately in his fight
against stage morals. He gained at
tention when he challenged William
Brady to occupy the pulpit in his
church in a debate on the reason
for the existence of the stage.
1.-THE industrial life of today is de-
fined as the foe of the home and the
church and caricature of the Chris
tian order of society,"" DR.. Faunce
declared in her address.
"In the industrial life around us
pagan principles too often prevail"
DR.. Faunce stated. when the in
dustrial world is divided into two
parties, one determined to give little
labor for much money and the other
determined to give little money for
much labor, our industrial life is
simply a continuous silent warfare.
Men do not exist to make shoes or
barrels, but shoes and barrels are
made for men. Our present acquisi-
tives must be transformed into a
constructive society, aiming not pri-
marily at dividends or wages, but at
the service of men,"
