pictures, nutomoblle riding and many othor
.diversions on the Sabbath. Tho auto was a
curse, ho said.
That was whero Judgo Andrews had a
chance.to see things carried his way. But
then Ddctor Tully asked for the privilege
at talking) .and whllo his voice could not
nave carried all the way to the rear of tho
hall, those In the rear evidently knew what
ho was saying. And they agreediwlth him
accordingly. Ho got a Ilna ovation and
everybody stood up to welcome his speech.
He made his pica for "keeping to our
standards" and his very physical weakness
seemed to give strength to his argument,
for when ho finished there was no doubt
what the convention would do, or If there
was any tho Rev. Dr. John Timothy Stone,
pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church,
of Chicago, (second wealthiest church In
the country, removed It.
Doctor Stone, a former moderator? and
a young dynamo of energy, made his plea
for a strict, observance of the Sabbath with
so much flro and virility, with such strength
of conviction, that one could see Judge An
drews' smllo ns ho recognized that his sug
gested revision of tho Sabbath regulations
would fail nnd It did.
The force , with which tho convention
turned down Judge Andrews' proposals was
really surprising. Whether It was tho
oratory or conviction that did It, no one can
say, but It was hard to believe that Judge
Andrews was the only one present who
plays golf on Sunday.
, A LIVELY INCIDENT.
For the first tlno since tho General As
sembly convened, bad temper got an Inning
today.
A little incident this forenoon divided
the assembly Into two factions.
It was the old story of the ordinary per
son against the Influential one.
It wasn't so much the fault of any per
son as It was of the whole assembly.
The Itev., Andrew Doremus Is the aged
pastor of a little church In a Michigan town
called Saginaw. He Is here as a commis
sioner, and, naturally, because his charge
at home doesn't amount to much, his In
fluence here does not carry very far. He
rose to protest against a report in which
certain measures for religious training In
tho schools were recommended. He took
what outside of church circles would be
called tho "broad-minded viewpoint."
The assembly considered It funny. The
commissioners laughed and giggled and
made It very evident to the aged pastor that
his views dldn t carry much weight.
Moderator Marquis tried his best to get
the Michigan pastor a hearing. Then a
man from Mattoon, Ills. the Rev. Dr.
Clarence Mackey, who Is quite a figure In
Southern Illinois, and at the assembly here.
got up to inquire indignantly whether a
man was "only worth while in this conven
tion If ho represented a wealthy church or
group." He asked:
"Is the time come when the poor, but
honorable man, no longer has a voice in the
Presbyterian church?"
The air was cleared by a humorous Intro
duction by Doctor Roberts In another report
and the convention took up Its work quietly
but unchastened,
Tha committee on bills and overtures
will hold a special secret meeting this after
noon to take up the matter of the New York
Presbytery's alleged disobedience.
Special counsel has been appointed to
represent New York In the persons of two
of Its delegates, the Rev. Dr. Work and the
Rev. Dr. Watson.
Th? committee has disposed of a mass of
Costs $25.88 Per minute
to Run General Assembly
Bv a Staff Correspondent
ATLANTIC CITY, May 20. It
cost $25.88 a minute to run the Gen
eral Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church, in its 128th annual session
here. Last year it cost about $22 a
minute.
This is allowing eight hours n dny
and 10 days for the session, although
on some days eight hours aro not
spent on the Steel Pier.
The total cost for tho '10 days is
$124,205. Dividing this by the 80
hours .gives the cost for., one hour
as $155,250'. Again dividing this by
60 minutes gives the amount for one
minute's session as $25.88.
Of this amount, $50,000 goes for
mileage, tho fares of the non 'enm.

is allowed a day for each commis
sioner by the Assembly; $10,500 is
allowed for printing and mailing.
Various amounts Tanging from $500
to $0500 are allowed for other things
connected with the Assembly. These
accounts will be submitted to the 900
commissioners during the coming
session. Nothing has been announced
concerning the cost up to today.
Senator Penroso, although apparently a
majority of ills candidates for Inmates to
tho Republican National Convention hav
been elected, faces a bitter fight against his
leadership when tho delegation moets to
select a chairman nnd makes Its plans for
the Chicago convention,
The nctual caucus probably will not bo
held until tho delegates reach Chicago for
tho convention.
A call will bo sent out early next weolc
for tho meeting. It Is planned to hold It In
this city tho latter part of tho, week 6f
May 28, If the election of tho delegates can
be certified to by that time. Tho spacious
new headquarters of tho Republican Stnto
Commlttoo, In tho old John O. Johnson
home, 506 South Broad street, havo been
chosen as the plnco for holding tho meeting.
The Penroso dolcgatcs will line-up almost
solidly for the senior Senator for chairman
of the delegation. That his election will bo
bitterly opposed, however. Is apparent, ns
u. movement nas oeen started among tho
IJrumbaugh delegates to nlnrn n iinm.
baugh candidate In the field to opposo Pen
rose, and efforts aro being made to cut
into tho Senator's strength by obtaining
tho pledges of delegates who ran as un
lnstructed. TEST OF STRENGTH.
The test of Governor Brumbaughls
strength In tha delegation, wh,lch Is dis
puted, wilt come at tho meeting,' when a poll
of tho delegation will bo made to dotermlno
whether or not the delegation will cast at
least a complimentary vote for tho Gover
nor on tho first ballot at Chicago.
Many Penrose dclegntcs, remembering
mm urumuaugn, witn nis appointive power
nnd his veto power,, still has two and a
half yenrs to sorvo as Governor, and that
another session of tho Legislature will bo
held next year, will voto for the .Governor,
nt least on tho first ballot. Thcro Is talk
In the Penroso camp, however, of keeping
tho Governor's voto down n Iimio ihnn
majority of the delegation. If possible.
None of thodotalls for tho meeting, ex
cept the place whore It will be held, has
been worked out. They probably will bo
announced early In the week.
Tho call also will be sent out tho first
of tho week for the mooting of tho newly
elected Stato Committee. It may bo two
weoks before tho Stato Committee meeting
is held, however, na the election of tho Stato
Committeemen will not be certified fn until
after tho ofllcial count has been mado on the
delegates. '
CONTROLS STATE COMMITTEE.
Apparently both factions agree that Sena
tor Penrose controls the now State Commit
tee, and as yet there. Is no movement on
foot to block tho senior Senator's plans to
have himself elected Republican National
Committeeman from Pennsylvania. In nlnr-n
of Henry a. Wasson, of Pittsburgh, who
was elected when tho Progressives captured
tho State Committee In 1912'.
The State Committee meeting also will
be held at the new headquarters on South
'Broad street, as-tho Imlhllnir I w.ii mt,i
VioT subcommittee meetings.
' At the Stnto Committee headnuarrnra r.
day, tho tabulation of tho returns from
Tuesday's election continued. Returns so
far available show that Mayor Smith
has been ' elected "a dclegate-at-largo
to tho national convention, and that the
contest between Isador Sobcl, of Erie, and
Joseph McLaughlin, of Philadelphia, for
fourth place on the Congress-nt-Large tlckot
probably will not bo decided until tho ofllcial
count Is mado.
Cnntlnoril from Tftlte On
given Cummfns and Burtbn In Oregon, was
Colonel Rodsovelt.
Because of tho failure of the, forces
friendly to Roosevelt' In Pennsylvania to do
better than brenk even, If that well, with
Penrose, the Justice was declared A leader
over tho Colonel,
BURTON AND CUMMINS .LOSE.
In the face of returns from Oregon.
Cuftimlns and BUrlon followers mado
ho formf statements. It Is known, how
ever, both had determined to stnke almost
all on a chance of becoming a national,
rather than a local candidate, by a defeAt
of Justice Hughes In n contest whero pop
ular sentiment had full play.
iWhab nppcaled to tha party leaders here
was that tho voters of Oregon had plainly
preferred Iughes to either tho Progressive
Cummins or the Conservative Burton. They
rcgard6d this symptom ns bearing' out their
own convictions mat nugnes is ma most
available' middle-ground candidate, '
Hughes' strength In the Vermont, prj
marles, where his nnme was written In on
ballots more than twlco as often ns any
other candidate, Indicated to these leaders,
too, that his strength Is, not confined to the
Progressive .States of tha West ' '
Evidence that tho Roosevelt faction plans
to make tho friends of Justice Hughes fight
for tho nomination became apparent this
week. This was seen In the formation
of tho Roosevelt League, hended by Forjner
Secretary of tho Navy Meyer. The plan of
the friends of Roosevelt is to work zealously
for his nomination, nnd If not successful tho
result of such activities will bo that the
Colonel will bo recognized as n factor when
the leaders get ready to ngrce on a candi
date, If Hughes does not sweep tho conven
tion neioro mere is any nickering between
tho Old Guard and Progressive leader's.
FAIRBANKS AS RUNNING MATE.
This element wants to force- tho nomina
tion of Roosevelt nnd Fairbanks. Tho first
move to como before. tho convention will
bo a half-concenled attempt to force Justlco
Hughes to inako n declaration on -political
Issues and give some indication that ho
will accept tho nomination If It "Is offered
by tho convention. If they can force a
political uteranco from Justlco Hughes his
opponents would Immediately Bet Up tho
cry that ho was playing politics whllo on
tho bench nnd try to ruin him.
Against tho activity of friends of Roose
velt is the desertion of his former friends,
who, whllo not opposed to him, do not be
lieve ho COUld defeat Wilson If- nnmlnntod
by tho Republicans. Tho most notable of
these men to declare for Hughes Is former
Governor Hadley, of Missouri. Senator
Lodge, of Massachusatts, friend of Roose
velt, Is quoted as expressing tho opinion
that Justlco Hughes should be tho Rcpubll
can nominee. Former Senator' Murray
irnne, or Massachusetts, an Old Guard-
icaucr, is classed as in tho Hughes camp".
SENTIMENT FOR JURIST.
With tho Republican convention less than
two weeks and a half nway, sentiment
among the 'innsses Is for Hughes, his back
ers assert. There is no denying the foci,
however, that the Old Guard leaders, in
combination with Roosevelt, can -defeat
Hughes. But If they do this the question
confronting them is whom shall theynoml
nnto? To accept Roosevelt means, In the
opinion of tho far-seeing . politicians, the
defeat of the Republican party, as primary
elections have shown that tho country is
strongly opposed to yio military policy, of

WALLING TO GO ON BALLOT.
Tho question of whether tho name of
Emery A. Walling shall bo printed on the
nonpartisan ballot at the election next No
vember, whether tho voto cast for him In
tho primaries Is smaller or greater than
that cast for his one opponent, Charles
Palmer, of Chester, It can be said with au
thority, has been definitely decided. Jus
tice Waiting's name will bo printed on tho
ballot. '
The question Involved In this case was
clearly decided In a decision by the Dau
phin County courts last fall. In a case which
camo there for adjudication from Erie
County. U. P. Rosslter and Joseph M.
Forco were candidates on the nonpartisan
ticket for nomination for the Erie County
Judgeship last year. Rosslter, In tho prim
aries, received 800 more votes than his op
ponent and he brought suit In the Dauphin
County courts to keep Mr. Force's name
oft the ballot at the fall election, The Dau
phin County courts decided against Rossl
ter nnd both names were placed on tho
Dauot.
As the law now stands, It would have tq
be shown that more than 50 per cent of
the entire number of voters who went to
tho polls In Pennsylvania last Tuesday and
cast their ballots for any candidate on any
ticket voted for Palmer, In order to keep
Justice Walling from a place on the ballot
at the fall election. Under existing condi
tion this wouldnot be possible.
ESTIMATE OF STRENGTH
One conservative leader, whllo claiming
to regard the first ballot In the ' coming
convention ns among the lenst'consqquentlal
events, gave out this estimate of strength:
Cummins, 85; Burton, 140; Fairbanks,
140! Root, 120; Week's, 130; Borah, 8; du
Pont, 6; Sherman, 90; Hughes; 00; Roose
velt, 65: La Follette, IB; Ford, 30; Brdm-
ImtlFh. SO. nnd h nV,... -ifl Mi ,, L
-- -j -.. W...C uu liiicHjuimneouB,
In this computation, however, nro In.
eluded many unlnstructed delegates of
whom the men who claim them nrn linr.,.,.-
taln. Senator Weeks, for instance; belloves'
no win nuva in on ine nrst ballot, but ono
of his friends -qualifies this "If we can hbld
them." He complained that of the Southern
delegates, as quick as a Weeks' worker left
"tho front door, -somebody else came In
from behind."
Only one moro primary remains. South
Dakota, May 23. West Virginia has a pri
mary formally, but' the Stato convention,
has agreed upon a slate of candidates for
whom general support Is said to have de-1
voloped. Senator Cummins Is expected
among politicians to show his normal
urairle-State strength In the South Dakota
tight.
Mayor Smith Is now rendy to begin
negotiations with the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit Company to effect nn ngrecment
for tho operation of tho city-built' high
speed subway nnd ctevnted Bystem, The"
Mayor In" announcing that the first steps
would bo taken within a few days, said Ho
had delayed deflnlto n6tlon pending tho
passage of the loan hills, but now every
effort would bo mnda to como to a friendly
ngrecment promptly.
"Tho Mayor, according to his announce
ment, will confer with Transit DIrcctar
Twining early next week and together they
will study the 1007 contract between the
city nnd tho company nnd tho 1914 tcntatWo
agreement, worked out at a series of con
ferences between the city officials and thoso
oi me company, but never ratified because
tho Union Traction Company refused co
operation. Tho plan this time will bo to enlist tho
support of the Union Traction Compnny lit
the very beginning, the Mnyor made It
plain.
"It is my view that any ngreement
reached with tho Rapid Transit Company,
said the Mayor, "would bo of no avail ui
loss It Included tho approval of the Union
Trnctlon Company, which, nfter nil, Is the
controlling factor and financial responsi
bility In street railway matters In this city.
Tho Rapid Transit Company Is tho ou
growth of tho Union Traction Company,
which held leases and controlled tho system
turned over to tno napia Transit Company.
Therefore, there Is nnother big problem be-
loro ub.
"I havo up to this tlmo concentrated my.
efforts toward getting the people' to np
provo tho transit loan, and now that this
loan of $57,100,000 for .tho Broad street
subway and all othor lines contemplated
has been approved, thp Important tnsk Is
td find a company to oporato the lines when
completed. Since tho construction of tho
Broad, street subway and Frankford ele
vated aro well under way, It Is highly Im
portant that wo got an operating agree
ment. '
"It Is my purpose to pcrsohntly tnko up
with tho Rapid Transit officials this Im
portant mattor. Before tho Frankford
elevated can bo connected with the Mar
ket street BUbway-elevated system, we must
havo an operating agreement. While tha
lino will undoubtedly bo 'tho first to be
opened because of tha speed that can be
obtained In elevated construction, It will bo
useless to attempt to enter Inta an agree
ment for one line without lncludlngjill, and
this Is a big Job. But I am hopeful that I
can obtain for tho city a satisfactory agree
ment." 'JVIH you suggest a commission or com.
