txitlif0 Lcitgcr Bloff Correspondent
ATLANTIC CITV, N. J., May 2S. Tho
easiest way out of trouble was chosen ngaln
todny when the General Assembly of the
Presbyterian Church took n step toward
solving Its vexatious seminary problems.
It Instructed .Moderator Marquis to ap
point a committee of four ciders and three
ministers who nre directed to studv the
question nnd advise the 1917 nssembly
whnt should bo done.
This Is really n step forward. Every Gen
eral Assembly since 1892 has considered
this seminary problem and has passed It to
the succeeding convention, nnd so for these
34 years nothing has been done. The situ
ation had become Intolerable and promised
trouble nt this year's meeting. This trouble
3 averted, but It is reasonably sure that
today's proceeding makes conclusive action
next year n ccrtnlnty, '
Whether the lenders In this assembly felt
than nn nddltlonnl year's study was neccs
sary or whether they Just wnntcd to slide
through smoothly as they did yesterday on
the heresy proposition, only they know,
tind they nrcn't telling, but one must be lost
In admlrntlon of the mechanics nf thn nn.
scmbly. How they avoided debate on the
heresy nffnlr yestcrdny no one pretends to
know; how they did It todny Is hnrdly short
of marvelous.
There wasn't ovon n suggestion of n
speech today. Dr. J. Ross Stevenson simply
read his committee's report, nnd did It so
nicely that ono felt It would bo highly Im
proper even to think of debate. The motion
to ndopt It was put nnd carried without
even n sign of disapproval.
ft had been expected that Judge J.
DoWItt Andrews, of New York, would plead
earnestly for Immediate nctlon, but nB It
happened, tho business was put through
before ho arrived.
STEVENSON A POLITICIAN.
One commissioner said, mlmlrlnn-lv not
sarcastically, that politics ceitnlnly missed
a great opportunity by letting Doctor
Stevenson enter the ministry. He added:
"There never Is a debnto when he handles
tho situation; ho doesn't allow It."
This seminary problem began with the
Union Theological Seminary, and now em
braces every other theological school.
A glance over tho names of these semi
naries shows how widely spread the prob
lem Is. Here Is tho list:
Princeton Theological Seminary,
Auburn Theological Seminary. Now York.
Western Theological Seminary, Allegheny,
Pa.
Lane Theological Seminary, Cincinnati.
Kentucky Theological Seminary, Louis
vlllo. Ky.
McCormlck Theological Seminary, Chi
cago. San Francisco Theological Seminary, San
Anselmo, Cal.
German Presbyterian Theological School
of tho Northwest, Dubuque.
Lincoln University Theological Depart
ment, Lincoln University, Pa.
Biddle University Theological Depart
ment, Charlotte, N. C.
Omaha Theological Seminary, Omaha.
There Is represented In that list property
worth about twenty-five millions, which
would bo In dispute sooner or later If tho
General Assembly should rule wrong. The
matter comes down to this:
By what they call the "compact of 1870"
all these theological seminaries are bound
to have the General Assembly rule oer
their faculties ; a veto by the General As
sembly means that n prorcssor mus. go or
be prevented from taking a chair in the
first place. "
The Union Theological Seminary threw
off this restraint In 1892, nnd ever since
then the General Assemblies, one after an
other, have been simply passing the Issue
on to the succeeding body. The Issue In
its particular case centres around 'almost
$2,000,000, which the bcmlnary collected
while under tho protection of the General
Assembly nnd which the Presbyterian
Church thinks ought to be taken away from
It, now that it Is no longer n strictly Pres
byterian Institution.
It Is the only such college which has
acted. But nil the colleges are getting
ready so to act. Auburn, a little more for
ward than the rest, has had the nerve to
ask this General Assembly to rule; It
wants to know what will happen to It If It
does what Union did 24 years ago, because
It knows the policy of Inaction Isn't going
to continue forever.
Dr. W. II. McKlbben, president of Lane
Theological Seminary, said today that
what the' seminaries want Is to get. away
from the Assembly control of their facul
ties, but not from the other Influences. He
Intimated that what they rather hope for
is to find that the "compact of 1870" Is not
binding, and that will solve the problem
right there.
Whatever Is done there Is sure to be a
spirited debate on the floor. It won't be
the honeyed affair the heresy report was.
Judge Andrews, of New York, Is pretty
sure to have something to say from the
seminary camp, and he won't have to look
tor some one to take up the cudgel against
him. They'll be nround,
The most likely action is appointment of
n committee to And the best solution and
report to the 1917 convention, which will
have to act. That will make the' settlement
of the problem only one year off and the
delegates think they can stand that, having
stood It for years.
If they don't do that they will have to
proceed against Union In law and bring

the matter Into the civil courts. Tho pes
simists think It Is bound to get there,
anywny. ,
Doctor Stevenson nlmost apologized to
the nssembly for again bringing a "trou
blesome" matter to Its attention. But he
said lie did It "to get It out of the way,"
nnd then proceeded to the reading of the
report. He had rend about two sentences
when he Interpolated some Information to
the effect that ho wnB not only reading
the unanimous onlnlon of thn members of
tho Committee on Bills nnd Overtures, hut
nlso the unanimous opinion of the Com
mittee on Theological Semlnnrles, 46 men
In all.
Then he rend as follows:
"In answer to overtures Nos. 1 to 22 and
149. nil dealing w Ith tho Interpretation of
the so-called compact of 1870 nnd Its com
plications, nnd inlslng certain Inferential
questions as to the relation of nil our the
ological seminaries, the appointment of pro
fessors, the character of their teaching,
nnd tho Prcsbytcrinl oversight of candl
Jates for tho ministry to tho general ns
sembly, nnd to tho Presbyterian Church
In tho United States of America, we rec
ommend that n special committee of seven,
four elders and three ministers, be ap
pointed by tho Moderator to take under
consideration the questions that have been
raised as to the action of the general as
sembly of 1915 regarding this 'compact
of 1870.' especially as to tho bearing of
this nctlon upon the legal status of all our
seminaries, nnd nlso to Investlgnte the whole
relationship of these seminaries to tho
church nnd to the assembly, nnd to each
other; to advise as to any proceedings or
actions which may be necessary to safe
guard existing relationships, or to -make
these relationships more secure, uniform
and mutually helpful, and to report to tho
next nssembly."
The overtures, for the main pnrt, rec
ommended the bringing of a civil suit to see"
whether Union should bo nllowod to rctnln
trust funds collected while It was n Presby
terian college.
Tho reading finished, the report wan
adopted in two seconds, nnd the Assembly
preceded to less Important business. Now
that It Is done, all tho bickering In the
world won't do any good, but It Is safe to
say that more than ono commissioner Is
kicking himself for not being on hand when
the Assembly begnn business on the dot of
9 this morning.

WAUKEGAN, III., Mny 25. The work of
getting a Jury to try Will Orpet, University
of Michigan student, on charges of murder
ing his sweetheart, Marlon Lambert, la go
ing backward instead of forward. When
court opened today there was four Bworn
nnd four tentatively nccepted jurors In the
box, nnd attorneys wero hopeful of com
pleting n Jury by todny. At tho opening of
tho case this morning, there remained only
four sworn nnd one temporarily acceptable
Juror. The others havo been dismissed for
various reasons.
Almost 600 tnlesmen have been examined
In the nine dnys of tho trial. It has cost
Lake County $4600 to get four Jurors. Sum
moning business men instead of farmers
has failed to expedite tho trial a3 expected.
It was suggested and not dented by the
young student's lawyers that the defense
would mako nn effort to prove n hereditary
suicidal streak In tho Lambert family his
tory. If this can be proved, It admittedly
will bo a big factor In legally determining
whether the pretty llttlo schoolgirl took the

their touring cars which they left together
outside the house. During the visit, Gay's
daughter heard tho chugging of a motor
outside. The men ran out to sea a young

hill while nnother In the seat, was trying
to get It Into gear. The other car was
farther down the street, whero It had been
abandoned after the alleged thief's fuUle
attempts to start It.
The three men gave chase, yelling as they
went, A crowd soon joined. The fugitives
separated, but the crowd kept after tha
ono they had seen in tha seat. Tha distance
between the young man and his pursuers
gradually decreased, when a flash of talcum
powder went through tha air and tha per
sons nearest, Btopped for tha minute,
blinded. At Louden street, soma negroes
turned and ran tho other -way when they
saw his face, declaring ho was a ghost
The boy had smeared tha powder over his
features ot disguise them.
Tho chase was Joined by W. H. Dunkel
berge'r, 113 Louden street, who, with As
sistant Fire Marshal "William Coupe,
cornered tho fugitive up an alley. Ho was
then caught and placed under arrest. Ac
cording to tha pollco. he is Frederick
Gallagher, of 32 East Ashmead street.

Ever slop .
to consider
the faces of
the people
you meet?
f Every face has eyes,
ears, mouth, nose, but
have you ever found
any two faces exactly
alike in expression?
Q Well, there's just that
difference between
makes and "styles" in
clothes !
$15
$18, $20, $25
are the prices
on Perry
Suits
I Coats, vests and trou
sers are pretty much
alike in their general
features; what you're
looking for is a Suit
that appeals to you just
as some particular per
s o n appeals to you.
You want to like it.
In a Perry Suit,
there's the expression
ofaPersonalit y
a little something in the
cut, a little difference in
the lines, a little snap in
the making, all of which
put animation into the
materials tailored by
Perry's. A Perry Suit
is a work of art and an
exponent of style!
Of course, to appreciate
the difference, you'll
have to see the clothes!
