SUNDAY EXHORTS
Continued from l'aire On
There were but feV minutes during his
discourse In which the audience was not
smillnc. nut. nt tt.A .Am. nmA tu
strong arguments by which he Inspires his
audience were hurled Into their cars with
striking force.
PftATEn MOItE THAN DTJTr.
Time nnd again the word "Amen" was
uttered or jelled by the ministers on
tho one side of the platform or devout
followers of God In the congregation.
"Prayer Is more than a duty, It is a
privilege," said the evnngellst. "Hut you
must havo belief nnd live ns Cod tells
you to live, or all your mutterlngs will
bo In vain,
"God knew that you wcro nil going to
hell, but ho gave you a chance to go to
heaven. Thero Is no uso praying It you
do not turn from jour sins.
"You cannot go to God, nor God can
not communicate His message to you.
That Is what Is tho nlnttrr with tha
church today. If you wero sick and theJ
uocior comes aiong ana gives you some
bitter medicine that wilt counteract tho
disease, you do not growl nt him, no.
He is n great doctor.
"Do thb same with tho Iyird. The
base following wcro cast out of the pronv
Iscd land through their unbelief, notwlth.
standing that1 God had given permission
that they should enter Into tho promised
land. They did not go. Decnuse of what?
Unbollef. They came to Kadesh. If you
will look Into tho Illblc you will llnd
that condition; you will llnd that tho
promises aro not exactly suited to your
condition.
"The Lord God is always with ou If
you stand four squaro for him, you bet.
Why did thoso of old whom I havo told
you about tho fiery furnace, why did not
they receive their answer? They died
without having received tho promise?
They believed God gave them something
else, something better, perhaps.
LITTLE FAITH IN GOD. c
"Wo aro on this sldo of tho cross and
we look bnck, and we sco tho cross, but
it Is empty, tho gravo Is empty.
"Tho Church of God today ought to
hang Its head' In shame nnd dlsgraco to
think that there Is so little faith In God,
Jesus Christ and the ISIble. Thoso other
men on tho other side of the cross died
without having received tho promise, nnd
tho promtso wns Jesus, tho promjso was
tho seed of tho woman. God p'rovldcd
some better things for them.
"Put on thy strength. Oh. Zlon. put out
some of your groaning and moanlngs In
prayer and put In some acclamations of
triumph and belief. God Is tho same yes
terday, today and forever, and sits on
tho throne in His glory. It was Ho
who said, 'What things soever yo desire
when yo pray, Relieve, and yo shall ro
celvo them.' "
"That was tho best night I've had since
I've been in Philadelphia," said "Billy"
this morning when ho kicked out of
the sheets and went to tho dining
room for bacon nnd eggs. "My voice Is
much bettor and I am ready to pound
tho sins of this old city and to arouse
tho church people to their duties to their
churches, their city and- their God."
Mr. Sunday's voice had been causing
him much worry as he was afraid tho
slight cold ho contracted tho first day
ho camo to Philadelphia would affect
his throat so much that he could not do
Justice to tho early sermons In his cam
paign, i
In tho morning mall ho received a card
from Colonel S. E. Meigs, extending to him
tho privileges of the Union League. With
It came a letter saying that It was hoped
the evangelist would visit tho Institution
often during his stay hero and wishing
him much success in his revival. Mayor
Blankenburg sent him a letter expressing
his l egrets in not being in his olllce when
Mr. Sunday-called, and extended his best
Wishes. '
SINGING BY BIG CHOIK.
Eighteen hundred men of the chorus
will be Joined In ono big choir and give
a special song service previous to the
sermon tonight.
"The Little Brown Church In the Wild
wood" will bo ono of tho popular selec
tions to bo sung, nnd many of tho old
time revival hymns will bo rendered.
A large delegation from Snellenberg's
Department Store will attend tho meet
ing In a body this evening.
Tomorrow nt 12 o'clock "Billy" Is going
out to tho University of Pennsylvania to
speak to the boys, and In tho evening
tho student body wilt attend the services
in tho tabernacle.
"Do you know how l'vo sized you up
In Philadelphia?" asked the evangelist
iast night. "You'ro good and attentive,
'but you look as though you ate too
much, slept too much, woro too solf-satls-lied
und uulte content to sit buck .uiU
let your good old town slide straight to
hell!
"But I don't care what jou say. God
con move any cltj ! There's rotting,
stinking, corroding, corrupt, hell-ridden,
God-defying, devll-berldaen New York.
God'll get It yet In His own good time.
He can move it, and oh, how ho will
meve It!"
THOUSANDS TUHNED AWAT
Thousands of persons wero unable to
gain admittance to the tabernacle last
night when Mr. Sunday made a fearless
attack on political grafters In general
antl In Pennsylvania In particular, and
nounded the rum Bellers and those who
call themselves -Christians nnd church
members, but rent their buildings for
saloons nnd vice resorts.
Racing back and forth across the plat
form, sometimes bringing the 20,000 In the
audience to their toes with convulsion
of laughter, and time and again denounc
ing the careless and Indifferent church
men and women, "Billy" held the throne
In his hand for almost an hour last night.
Hq spared nobody, and when he had
finished perspiration was streaming from
his face. His collar was limp as a rag,
and tho veins in his neck bulged out aa
though they would burst. He was preach,
in on "Jacob" and, In telling how Jacob
wrestled with tho angels, he ncted the
part so well and he impersonated Jacob
driving the goats In such an amusing
fashion that the audience went wild. It
cheered, clapped Its hands and laughed
until tears were streaming down many
or the men's faces.
The great choir, led by "Bodey," sang
thoso fumous songs "Rejoice" and "If
Your Heurt 'Keeps night" and many of
the other popular hymns until tho big
building almost shook and the musio
drifted out over the city and could be
heard many blocks.

CONGRESSMAN-ELECT PLANS
DISARMAMENT OF NATIONS
Move for World Fenco to Bo Mndo
by Benjamin K. Focht.
A plan whereby tho United States will
take the foro in demanding world-wide
disarmament of nations at tho conclusion
of tho present Ruropenn connict will bo

Benjamin K. Focht. of Lewlsburg, Pn.
Mr. Focht was returned to Congress

disarmament with friends here yesterday
while spending a short time In Philadel
phia conferring with local politicians.
In outlining his Idea, Mr. Focht de
clared that ho had always favored na
tional disarmament, and to hltn the ond
of tho European war seemed tho most
logical llmo In recent history for any one
nation to take a positive stand nnd de
mand that nil other nations Join In this
much-discussed plan for Insuring world
peaco.
"Every nntlon of Kuropo wilt bo on Its
back nt tho conclusion of the war," snld
tho Congrcssmnn-clcct. "Tho United
States alone will stand as prosperous at
now, nnd the United States alone will be
In a position to perform tho greatest
Christian net evor attempted by any na
tion domand absolute nnd cntlro dis
armament of all nations In return for
lending credit nnd assistance to restore
tho war-torn countries to their normal
position,"

HUNDREDS ESCAPED
DEATH 'BY A SECOND'
IH SUBWAY HORROR
New York District Attorney
Starts Inquiry to Find if
There Was Criminal Responsibility.
NEW YORK, Jan. 7,-DlstrIct Attorney
Perkins began today a sweeping Investi
gation of yestorday's subway accident,
which caused tlWLdcath of a woman and
the moro or IcslR serious Injury of Ml
persons.
He had, CO passengers and 27 policemen
nnd firemen under subpoena when ho
reached tho Criminal Courts Building, nnd
said ho expected It would requlro two or
three days to dctormlno whether thero
wns criminal responsibility In tho matter.
"I Intend to go to tho bottom of this
accident nnd nnd out why passengers
wcro kept In that dark holo In thoso
trnlns for moro than nn hour after tho
Initial tie-up. I will also find out why
tho ilrcmcn wcro not called earlier," sold
the District Attorney on opening his In
quiry. Mr. Perkins has been told by Governor
Whitman that ho can have any assistance
needed from the State In his Inquiry. Two
of the chief witnesses on hand wcro
Dnntcl Walsh, motorman, and Dnulol Sul
livan, conductor, of tho express train In
which most of tho passengers wero over
come. They nro expected .to glvo their
version of tho causes leading up to tho
11 ro Irl tho subway, a subject that Is stilt
shrouded In docp mystery.
Tho District Attorney snld ho Intended
to Hnd out whether tho doors of tho cars
were locked nnd why It wns, wjicn smoke
was first observed In the stibway, the
station ofllclnls and tho crows of tho
"stalled" trains did not get the pas
sengers to safety.
Just how narrow was tho cscapo of
hundreds of persons from a tcrrlblo
death Is shown by tho statement of Flro
Clilof Kenlon:
"Another second under headway," ho
said, "would have carried tha local train
to a point directly beside the manhole
Up which flames seethed so hot that they
moiled sleet nnd asbestos like butter And
sent copper flying away IngLho form ot
go. Even without that second of head
way, another IS minutes' delay In giving
Us word of the nccldent would hava
meant the death of those nlrendy Orver
come."
Passengers Insist that tho guards first
locked the doors and then deserted their
posts, leaving the Imprisoned men and
women to what seemed certain doom.
SUBWAY DISASTER HERE
IMPOSSIBLE, SAYS P. R. T.
Construction nnd Lighting System
Not Hko New York Tube's.
Phllndelphlnns were assured by a rep
resentative of the Rapid Transit Com
pany todny that under no conditions could
thero occur In this city nn accident sim
ilar to thnt In Now York yesterday. 13x
pcrts of the I. R. T. made nn Inspection
of tho subway this morning nnd this
statement was made!
"Thero need' be no concern on tho part
of our patrons over tho probability of
bucIi a cntastropho In the Philadelphia
subway as occurred yesterday In New
York. In tho first place, our subway
Is lighted by a duplicate system of wires,
and If ouo wcro to go out of commission
on account of a short circuit, tho other
system would still supply light, for It
Is Inconceivable that the two systems
could or would burn out nt the same
tlmo. They nre Installed with a view to
preventing such a condition. So, no mat
ter what accident might occur, our sub
way would not bo loft In darkness.
"Besides thnt, the Philadelphia subway
Is of openwork construction, nnd tho nlr
ducts lending to tho street for tho pur
poso of ventilation nro very frequent, nnd
It would bo Impossible to 1111 tho tunnel
with smoke because tho nntural draught
would frco It.
"For the entire length of tho under
ground section of our system there Is n
walk bcsldo tho tracks, and by this
menus passengers will always bo nblo
to lcavo a stalled train nnd walk to tho
fresh nlr nnd safety. The underground
portion of the system Is only throe mites
long. From 13th street to "3d street,
where tho tracks ascend to tho surface,
tho air ducts nro very frequent.
"Tho only narrow portion of tho tunnol
Is from loth to 23d street. From 15th
street to Delawaro nvenuo, nt which point
tho tracks ngnln come to tho surfaco, tho
tunnel Is very wide and tho stnttons nro
only two or thrco squares apart. This
creates strong natural ventilation nnd
renders smoko congestion Impossible."
U. S. COTTON CARGO
QUICKLY RELEASED

Denver Freed Even Before"
Protest Is Made Sealing
Ship Hatches New Solui
tion for Dispute. 4
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7-WhIIe release
of tho American cotton steamship' Den
ver, following her detention by British '
authorities off Kirkwall, gave offlclaUr ;
satisfaction today, It was Intimated thnt
Just such Incidents, with their moral ef
feet In deterring shlppors, wero involves
In tho general shipping protest, liven
the prospects of arrest of a vessel, al
though release might be Immediately or
dered thereafter, Is regarded as Interfer
ons with American commerco by making
shippers chary of engaging In transat
lantic trade.
The seizure occurred after Great Drlt
aln had formally notified this country
that she had no objection to shipment
of cotton to Germany, When the Denver
left Norfolk she was armed with a cer
tificate from the British Consul at that
port, stating that her manifest showing
a cotton cargo of 7000 balos was honest
and that no contraband was concealed
In the vessel.
Further, tho new Treasury regulations,
Intended to lesson obstacles to American
shipping, wero designed to meet cases ex
actly similar to tho Denver, although tho
Bhlp satlcd before tho new Treasury rules
wcro promulgated.
Tho Denver's detention probably will be
made tho subject for separate Individual
representations to Great Britain, and not
bo Involved In tho formal protest. A simi
lar policy Is being pursued regarding tho
two vessels, tho Now Sweden nnd Forlnnd,
with copper cargoes of tho American
Smelting nnd Refining Company, recently
seized oft northern England.
