-m THE PJTTSBimG DISPATCH SATURDAY, AUGUST' 29, r!89L :o A UNIVERSAL CREED In Course of Preparation for All the Presbyterian Bodies. TWENTY-TWO MILLION MEMBEES Interested in the Work of the Committee. Xotv in Session. A MAJORITY OP THEM BEIGGS PEOPLE tSPrCIiX TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH.1 New- York, Aug. 28. The committee on a consensus creed for use in all of the Pres byterian denominations has been holding midsummer sessions at Spring Lake Beach on the New Jersey coast. Twenty-two million Presbyterian members of the com munions on the five continents are interested in the results of these sessions. This is the iourth session of the committee. The previous sessions were held quietly in New York City. It may be ten years before the work of the committee is completed. The idea is to get up a short, concise.com plementary creed that will express the con tensus of opinion in all the Presbyterian bodies to supplement and not to supplant the special creed of each. Some of these 22,000,000 Presbyterians subscribe to the "Westminster Confession; others subscribe to the Heidelburg Confession; others to the Augsburg Confession, but all are Calvau istic and all maintain a form of government designated as Presbyterian. The first use of the creed will be in the missionary fields and in colonial settlements. steexgth in uxrrr. Presbvterians comimr together from all quarters of the globe are divided by fine distinctions into small bodies. If these small societies can be united under one creed there would be strength and unity instead or weakness and rivalry. Another use will be to supply a popular creed for the 2,500,000 members of the Presbyterian Church in America, to express in brief and concise language the system of doctrine taught in the Westminster Confession, to which the elders and preachers are now required to subscribe. A third use is to supply the converted Brahmanists and Buddhists of the East with a plain and simple statement of the Cahinistic doctrines. Of the 81 organizations, the chief are the North and the South Presbyterian Churches in the United States, the "United Presby terians, the Dutch Reform, the two Scotch churches and the Evangelical Calvinistic churches of Ireland, England. Wales, Hol land, Germany, Prance and Australia. One of the first duties of this committee was to encase the co-operation of each of these im portant bodies. Communication was estab lished at once with 51 of these organizations. Some of the churches at once authorized co operation in formulating such a creed. THE FIRST REPLIES MADE. The first to comply was the Free Church of Belgium and the Presbyterian church of New South "Wales. Several have declined to take action for the present. These are the Presbyterian Church South; the United Presbyterian Church of North America; the Presbyterian Church of Ireland, and the Beforin Presbyterian Church of Scotland. The committee engaged in this important work was appointed by the Presbyterian General Assemblv of 1890,and is as follows: The Kev. Dr. "William II. Moore, Colum bus, Chairman; Dr. William H. Roberts, of Lane Theological Scminarv, Cincinnati; Secretary; Dr. John DeWitt, of McCor mick Theological Seminary, Chicago; Dr. Francis Brown, of Union Theological Sem inarv, New York; Dr. Benjamin B. War field, of Princeton Theological Seminary, New Jersey, resigned; Dr. Howard Crosby, of New York, deceased: Elder Henry Day, of Dr. John Hall's Church, New" York; Elder Bobert N Willson, of the famous Albert Barnes Church, Philadelphia, and Elder E. P. Durant; of Albany. To Dr. Crosby's place the Bev. Dr. Charles A. Dickcv. pastor of the Albert Barnes Church, Philadelphia, was appointed, and- ln place oi jjr. warneta was named Ur. John T. Duffleld, of Princeton College. A MAJORITY Or BBIGGS MET. Of the committee, five, Drs. Jloore, Brown and Dickey and Elders Dav and Willson, are known as liberals. They are Briggs men and favorable to a broad and sweeping revisiou of the church's standards of faith and practice. The other four are conserva tives, and were originally against revision, but since revision has been ordered by a ma jority of the church they are for revision to a limited extent They are against Dr. Briggs. The working committee, however, ib anti-Briggs and anti-revision. Dr. Brown is abroad and Lawyer Day is sick. Dr. Dickey is not in attendance at Spring Lake Beach. As the complementary creed is about complete in a tentative form, it may be supposed to reflect the opinions of the minority. This brief creed will go before the next General Assembly, which meets in Port land, Ore., next May. As this Assembly 5s be chosen with relerence to revising the archaic document known as the Westmin ster Confession, it will be especially qual ified to handle this complementary creed. The complementary creed wjjl not be cast in the mold of the Apostle's Creed or of the Nicene Creed, which are written in a t-liort form, well adapted to be chanted, as is done by surplice choirs in Episcopal serv ices. Such a creed as this is what Dr. Briggs and his friends want. STICKING TO CALVINISM. But the committee is preparing a creed that w ill be more like a syllabus of the Westminster Confession, stating in general terms the famous dogmas of John Calvin, and set off into about 24 sections like the Thirty-nine Articles. It is possible that before the 81 churches are done with this consensus creed it may have lost both its Culvanistic character and its sectional form. This same committee is engaged in revis ing the Apostle's Creed. Presbyterian parents are required by the church to teach their children the Apostle's Creed, which is one of the standards of the church. Two phrases of this creed have become obnoxious to many Christians, and the last General Assembly suggested their elimination. They are: "He descended into hell," referring to Christ's death, and "The Holy Catholic Church." The first phrase is objectionable to I'rcsliyterians because it seems to be in line with the theory of a purgatory or of a period of second probation that is disturb ing the Protestant churches in some quar ters. The other phrase contains the word "Catholic," suggestive of the Koman Catholic Church, an idea extremely repul Mve to Presbyterians. Of course it is well known that "Catholic" means universal, but this committee is to bee if the ord "Universal" .should not be substituted for "Catholic" in tiie Apostle's Creed! Ilr. John DcAVitt, of Chicago, was ap pointed a cub-committee to prepare a report on these two phrases, to be submitted to the copimittcc at its next bession in the falL Against that time Secretary Koberts ex- iiects to have responses from others of the 'resbytcrian bodies. EUBVIVOSS OF THE BLACK HAWK WAE Meet Near the "Scone or the Battle and Re ole to Demand Pen&ion. Galena, III,, Aug. 2& The first re union ever held of surviving soldiers of the Black Hawk War of 183? was held to-day at Lena, the nearest village to Kellogg's Grove, where the decisive battle of the war was fought. Seventeen white-haired vet erans, each more than 70 years of age, regis tered their names at headquarters. There are 34 known survivors of the conflict living in this eection. AH who were not too en feebled byagcto attend were at the re-union. Judge Hinds, of Lena, made an address in which he referred to the fact that Zach ary Taylor, Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis served in thelJlack Hawk War. Judge Hind's speech as followed by one from General G. W. Jones, who was an aide de camp on the staff or General Dodge, the commanding general in the war. Congress man Hitt made an address. A resolution demanding pensions for the survivors was adopted. AN ALLIANCE MANDATE DEFEATED A CONFEDERATE SOL PIERS' HOME FOR GEORGIA, "It Was Acreed to Banish War Memories Kanuns Hurled the Bloody Shirt and Georgia Alliance Men Repudiated the Home A Carious Story. rsrECIAL TELEGRAM TO TUB DISPATCH. J Atlanta, Aug. 28. A curious story is afloat in the hotel corridors of this city in explanation of the refusal of the Georgia Legislature to accept the Soldiers Home. It has for its basis the fact that the home was defeated in obedience to an order from the State Farmers' Alliance. About one year ago, so the story goes, when President Polk and President Livingston went to take part in ' the Kansas campaign, it was represented to them that "Kansas looked upon the Alliance as a Democratic ally, and an agreement was insisted upon that some token should be given by which ICansas could justify themselves in quitting Bepub licanism. It was finally agreed that the mainte nance of war memories should be discour aged; that while the bloody shirt should be buried in Kansas, the Confederate feeling should be discouraged in the South. When General Wealer and Jerry Simpson visited Georgia a few months ago it was again urged that the Alliance could not hope for success in the South and West unless there should -come frorn the South something definite UDon which thev could eo. About this time the acceptance of the Con federate Soldiers Home began to loom up. "If vou people of Georgia," it was stated, "will throw the Confederacy overboard, by refusing to accept this Home, then we can attack our own pension system in the North, and on a common platform, leaving the war and its issues behind us, we can march on to victory. " Later Mrs. Lease came along and preached the gospel of the new era. When the Alliance State Convention met, the matter was fully debated, but as it is an oath-bound becret society, it is hard to get the revelations then made, further than that the order was given that no Confederate Home should be established in Georgia. This order to the faithful was sufficient and the result is already known. This story, which is certainly borne out by many facts, has many believers, who look lor a whole sale repudiation of Confederate enterprises by the Alliance men of the South.

Agent Dean, of the Anti-Cruelty Society, got back late last night from a visit of in vestigation in the country about eight miles out the Kittanning road from Sharpsburg. The first case was that of a farmer, Frank Tassey, who owns a fine, big farm, but whose family has been nearly starved, and his wife and daughter not properly clothed. When he saw Tassey, Agent Dean recog nized him as a man whom he prosecuted five years ago for cruelty and neglect to his fam ily. Shortly after that suit, in which Tas pey was compelled to pay a fine and per form other duties he had neglected, he struck his wife in the eye, injuring it so that in a short time it became useless. As the other eye was blind before the assault, she has been stone-blind ever since. The 14-year-old daughter, who is living at home, according to Agent Dean's state ment, is a veritable wild child, half naked and half starved. There is another child, a boy, who ran away from home a short time ago to avoid abuse. It is not known where the boy has gone. Mr. Dean says he will enter suit against Tassey to-day for cruelty and neglect, and will bring Mrs. Tassey to the city and place her under the care of an oculist in the hope of recovering her sight, and make Tassey stand the expense. Another case investigated was that of K. W. Hodil, who owns a nice-looking house and farm near Dorseyville. Hodil, it is al leged, has a contract with Daniel Federkeil, son of the well-known auctioneer, by which Federkeil, his w ife and five children dare not move from the house. It is in horrible condition, the roof being so full of holes that it affords protection from neither sun THE POLES ABE AKGEY At What They Claim Is HI Treatment of a Countryman. The ejection of Stanilaus Mirechew, a Pole, from the Southside Hospital yester day afternoon is likely to cause some trouble. Mirechew was taken to the hospital about five months ago by K. Fife, the un dertaker, suffering with typhoid fever. The physicians cured him of the fever. It was afterward learned that his left side was paralyzed. After the fever was cured the authorities of the hospital thought he should be at the Poor Farm and applied to Chief Elliott for a permit The Chief refused to grant it and he still remained at the hospital. The authorities still objected, but no permit was granted. Yesterday afternoon one of the nurses of the hospital put him in a buggy and took him again to Chief Elliott, but he still re fused to admit him to the poor farm. He then toot the paralyzed man to his old boarding house at 18 South Tenth street and put him out and into the door. The proprietor refused to have anything to do with him. Mirechew claimed that the proprietor owed him $13 and asked him for it, the 'proprietor refused to pay it, but on tne threat oi tne nurse the money was paid over. The nurse then took charge of it and placed it in the hands of the hospital authorities. Many of the Poles think the money is to be used by the hospital and are making a strong kick against. A crowd of them called upon Alderman Beinhauer last night to make an information against the .hos pital people, but it was refused. They also complain about the hospital putting the man out The money wifl not be used by the hospital, but will be left there. Kenyon Military Academy.
