ATLANTIC qiTT, N. 3 May 26. When
Bating today won from St. Louis the prlvl-
leges of entertaining the 1917 General As
sembly of the Presbyterian Church, Chief
Orator A. C. Bigger didn't tell quite nil ho
knewv
. Sir. Digger's chtefest argument, the one
that probably did more, than' any other to
eauso tha assembly to override the Assembly
Committee -and declare for Dallas, was an
emphatlo declaration that his (own had a
hotel, so big, bo fine, that It could house
all the delegates, and entertain them mag
nificently In Its auditorium which Beats
1000.
And now. for the denoument.
That great flno hotel, which Mr. Bigger
didn't name, Is known as the Adolphus,
on,d tho man who built It was Adolphus
Busch, tho late millionaire brewer of St.
Louis.
Tho assembly only last night went on
record as favoring In tho future the visit
ing only of temperance cities and, If that
couldn't bo done, to have the delegates
ut Up" nt strictly temperance hotels.
The Adolphus, In Dallas, Is still owned
and operated by the Busch estate, and tho
Anhouscr-Busch Brewery products arc there
eold.
Tho news of what the General Assembly
has yoted ltsolf Into hasn't circulated very
far as yet within the membership of tho
convention. But ono man w.ho heard It re
marked, rather cynically, when you con
sider tho situation. "Well, St. Louts lost out,
but still St Louts monby Is In tile running."
Mr. Bigger, who led the attack on tho
committee's recommendation of St. Louis
as tho next convention city, that finally won
tor Dallas, said of the Adolphus, which ho
didn't namo.
"It Is such a tine hotel, pn well fitted for
the purposes of this assembly, that nearly
the whole of Dallas could be wiped away- by
a catnstropho, and If only this hotel was
left standing, tho needs of tho nssembly
could be served,"
Tho decision wns mado today, after Invi
tations from Atlantic City, Columbus, O.,
Bt Louis and Saratoga Springs had been
considered. ..
It was tho. first lime since the csscmbly
convened 10 days ago that the delegates
overrode the program prepared for them.
The committee, Including Moderator Mar
quis, strongly recommended St. Louis, saying-
It would cost (28,000 more to hold the
convention In Dallas.
Tho voto for Dallas was 3GB; for St.
Louis. SOD;
Choosing Dallas was a tremendous lot of
fun for tho commissioners. St. Louis was
the only serious contender and that city's
claim was made by tho Rev. W. R. King,
of St Louts. Dallas had business men put
forward her claim. And how they did It!
Their Southwestern grim determination and
''one Joke told by a San Antonio minister
WGir the uuenr.My.
Every time the moderator tried to close
tho discussion with a committee plea for
St, Louis another Dallas man would bob
up with an argument. Tho Dallas men
were In no wise, orators, but they certainly
could argue. The delegates didn't mind
the extra $28,000 that will have to be spent
to go to Texas, not-after tho entertainment
Vv got In listening to the Dallas pleaders.
PROFESSOR A PLEADER.
Prof. A. C. Blggers was one of them;
H. C.- Shcrrard, of Pittsburgh, was another,
an& the Rev. Dr. James M. Tood, of San
Antonio, a third. There were countless
nthers who tried, but never got a chanco
to speak. Doctor Todd, a tried and true
Texan, forgot once that he was speaking
for Dallas and started talking about San
' Antonio. That lapse and his joke must have
sained 60 votes alone for Texas.
Moderator Marquis couldn't determine tho
result by the usual yea and nay vote and
had to take a count. He was plainly sur
prised, and so was the stated clerk, Dr.
William H. Roberts, of Philadelphia, that
tho committee's' recommendations had been
overruled. They had counted St. Louis as
selected and had made all arrangements
accordingly, even to the naming of sub
committees. The Presbyterian Church has never gone
on record about equal suffrage, and It Is
being faced with the necessity of declaring
itself right now. How the leaders can dodge
It, they don't know. They do know pretty
surety roai iney can i aoage it at all.
The Rev, Walter E. Spoonts, the author
ot the resolution which will bring the
suffrage question before the General As
sembly, has linked It so cleverly with the
Sroblbltlon question that the antl-suffrag-its
are In a panic He comes from Jack
sonville, 111., and the resolution which he
1$ going to jam down the throats of the
Presbyterian organization, which has been
running the assembly, or make them reject
H, Js as' follows:
"Whereas, Believing that Christian wives
and mothers should be given an equal right
to assist In the. great fight against the
liquor traffic;
"Whereas, That In every State where the
women had a chance to vote on tho saloon
question, the number ot saloons has greatly
decreased ;
"Be It resolved, therefore, that we, the
commissioners to the General Assembly of
the Presbyterian Church In the United
States of America, place ourselves on record
as believing In the Justice and righteousness
, ot giving women the right of equal suf
frage."
Suffrage has' been a moot topic too lorn
, u pernm oi any ignorance on ine part of
Kay considerable number of the commis
sioners, and no committee will be able to
persuade the body of 900 men that It must
do as advised.
there will be debate, plenty of It. and
with Are. The antl-autfraglau will have
their pleaders, and the conservatives hav
f .remarkably able men. But there are many
. vijhj (iu;uiif ma auuum unu j?ar west
in tins assembly who won't be talked down
when tho topic Is something they know
about. And suffrage Is where they come In.
. JSo ear fbat tha result will be is too much
like guesswork to count An effort n iin
i:Svp W,nton before the Assembly convened
.. ,; tvutu moa replies guarded. Every,.
Kikody, wanted io seo what would happen
ji The .biggest point In favor of tha passage
M &. SuuiflHlPfli
THE REV. F. H. STEVENSON
Cincinnati pastor, who is standing
with Dr. WIlHnm McKibben, prcsi
dent of Lane Seminary, in tho
seminary controversy at tho Pres
byterian General Assembly.
of tho resolution Is Up phrasing. When It
cornea down to the liquor question, there
Isn't a clerical or lay delegate here who
wont Indorse prohibition.
Tho other day, when tho heresy problem
was disposed of, a prayer followed for
thanks in settling tho problem "which
threatened to tear tho assembly asunder."
They've got another such problem on
their hands today.
By almost unanimous vote the Presby
terian Assembly went on record today
favoring tho reading of tho Bible In tho
public schools. A resolution on tho ques
tion was submitted by 13. P. Wilson, Rock
ford, Ills".
"Millions of young peoplo In this country
never got to college." said Mr. Wilson.
"Millions never havo an opportunity to
learn ot the Blbto In college, It should
bo In the grades. I want to know why
It Is not just as Important for children to
learn the Bible first as tha llfo of Caesar.
I hope tho day will como soon whon the
Blblo will be taught In public schools
not ns n religion, but as historical fact."
Men all over the houso bobbed up with
spirited speeches, favoring the Introduction
of the Blblo Into the public schools.
Tho assembly granted tho right for com
missioners to remain hero over Sunday
without personnl expense. If their beliefs
keep them from traveling on Sunday, An
nouncement was also made that next year
tho General Assembly wculd havo a pub
licity representative for tho first time.
Moderator Marquis changed his mind to
day about tho names of the seven commis
sioners who will study tho Eemlnnry prob
lem for the benefit of tho 1917 nssembly.
Ho may take a week to think ovor candi
dates, he said. Tho four laymen will be
lawyers and It ts a regret of his that the
three ministers whp must be on the committee-can't
bo lawyers, too. ,
FRANKFOItD SYMPHONY CLOSES
Hedda van den Becmt Praised on
Successful Con
cert Tho Frankford Symphony Society closed
Its eighth season last night with a success
ful concert In the auditorium of the Frank
ford High School before a record crowd.
Hedda van den Beomt, the orchestra leader,

with the program.
The opening number was Nlcolal's over
ture to tho "Merry Wives of Windsor."
The symphony was Haydn's second In D
major. Among the numbers which proved
more than popular were Mr. Van den
Boemt's arrangement for orchestra of "To
a Wild Rose," Edward MacDowoll's song
and two selections from Bizet. The pro
gram closed with selections from "Lohen
grin." Tho soloist of the evening was Ada
L. Woerthle, soprano, who sang selections
from "Der Frelschutz," "The Star" by
Rogors. and from Becker's "Springtide."
Her numbers wore well received.

PLEA FOR NEGROES LOST.
Commissioners this morning continued
dlscusBlon nt breakfast tnbles of tho treat
ment of the negro question last night, at tho
"hottest" session of tho entire 128th General
Assembly. With ono swoop, the "stonm
roller" crushed nn overturo from the Phila
delphia Presbytery, asklng.lt to rescind the
action of tho 1015 assembly, putting tHo col
ored Presbyterians of tho North under tho
Freedmon board, Instead of tho homo
board, adopted a strong recommendation
that nil pastors and church officers abstain
from the use of tobacco, .and jilso recom
mended that preference for future assem
blies bo given to cities which, can supply
temperance hotels for commissioners. Tho
latter motion also suggested In caso there
wero not enough temperance hotels that all
bars be closed In hotels In which commls-'
sloncrs nro assigned.
Tho Rev. Dr. Mathow Anilcrson' Pastor
of thc'Borenn Presbyterian Church, South
College avenue nnd 20th strcat, Phlladol-.
phla, and principal of the Berean Manual
Trnlnlng nnd Industrial School, made a plea
that the colored man of tho North be placed
under the Home Mlsslen .Board. Ho, do-,
cried the use of the term "Frecdman" nnd
accused the 1915 General Assembly of "vio
lating one of the most fundamental princi
ples of Its profession, namely, tho parity of
tho ministry and the equality ,of nil mon In
Christ JeBUS,"
For six days, Doctor Anderson, who was
graduated from Princeton Theological Sem
inary and has been In the rnlnlsfry for 38
years, had sat on tho front seat of tho As
sembly and a half dozen times had at
tempted to make his speech.' Each tlmo
ho had been told ho was out of order. Last
night wns tho first time ho had been able,
to get a hearing. Thjsn Q(.ter,.jnucb.. advlco.
on the part of the com'mtf'too -and much
cutting down of speeches, attempted by the
colored members of the. Assembly, .the. com
missioners voted to sustain the action of
the 1915 Assembly and keep the colored
men of tho North under the Frecdman
Board..
"It Is Buch action that makes tho colored
man'doubYjustlce and lose faith-In' the PreB
byteflan Church," said Doctor Anderson, In
speaking of tho vote. . t
STRONG FOR TEMPERANCE.
The commissioners 'came" out strong, for
temperanco and decided toTiavo 'mirifsfora
and laymen send letters- toitlie- members-of
Congress, when they return to their homes,
where they represent 1,500,000 people,
urging tho Legislature to' submit a Consti
tutional amendment for total prohibition of
the traffic In alcohol for beverage purposes
to the-people of the States. An nmendment
to tho resolution provides that tho District
of Columbia shall bo Included.
Much fun accompanied the adoption of
tho resolution concerning going to temper-,
ance hotels. John M. Mclnnls, Syracuse,
N, Y., wanted to know why. It was necessary,
to close the hotel bars when tho ministers
were at an Assembly session, and the Rev.
Hubert Kettele, Huron, Bald, "If this
Presbyterian Assembly Is in tho world to
do any good. It ought to go to the cities
where there are saloons."
The commissioners also went on record
as favoring tho abolition of the sale of
Federal licenses for liquor In Prlhlbltlon
States, saying that this would help do
away with "blind pigs."
In adopting the resolution on the non
use of tobacco for ministers of the gospel
and officers of the church, the commission
ers did not make It mandatory, but gave
a strong recommendation that the habit
"stands Inexcusably condemned; that Is Is
an evil habit, to bo avoided, and that It In n
glaring Inconsistency to teach In tho
churches, Sunday schools nnd young peo
ple's societies the evils -of .the Use of to
bacco nnd then have the ministers nnd
officers use It." Dr. Georgo L. Robinson,
of McCormlck-Seminary, Chicago,, made a,
strong plen for the adoption of tho resolu
tion. AID FOR WAR SUFFERERS.
Tho Assernbly decided to set aside
either May 28 or Juno 4 for 'the collection
of funds for the relief of tho war sufferers',
especially tha- Armenians. The delegates
refused to co-operatowlth tho Department
ot Labor Bureau of Naturalization, Wash
ington, in setting aside July 2 as cltlzen
Bnlp day, because bo many days In tho
coming church year havo been selected for
special celebrations nnd fund raisings.
Check's for approximately $77,000' weiro
given to the 900 commissioners today to
pay for thelr( mileage and entertainment
during the Assombly. ' The total s about
$12,000 more than was provided and by
unanimous vote the commissioners voted
to permit the treasurer to draw from tho
surplus to settle the bills.
