Xew York, Oct. $. New York Presby
tery assembles to-morrow in the old Scotch
Church, in Fourteenth street, to begin the
most important trial in the history of Pro-ie-tauisnu
The Iter. Dr. Charles Augustus
JJricgs is to be arraigned on charges of
heresy. The importance of this trial is due
to the fact that the issues involve the in
spiration, authenticity, infallibility, char
acter and influence of the Holy Bible.
The popular idea that the Bible is the
word of God, written under His direct influ
ence, upon which rests the religious belief
of many millions of people, against the
f-cholars and critics" theory that the Scrip
tures are human writings, characterired by
the same mistakes and inventions of other
human writings, and differing from them in
the divine element in degree only, is one
of the issues. And the other.no less im
portant.is the force and effect upon ordained
ministers of their vows of subscription to
the Churcli standards, which form the basis
of all religious communions.
THKEE rORMER TRIALS.
There have been three othergre3t Presby
terian heresy trials in America within the
century. But the doctrines involved were
trilling in comparison with those in the
Brisg cae. Thomas S. Craighead, a Ken
tucky preacher of solid Presbyterian ante
cedents and unusual ability, developed at
the beginning of the century views an
tagonistic to the famous Calvanistic decrees
of foreordiuation. There were trials with
convictions in the lower courts, with ap
peals and reversals, disquieting the Church
greatly for many years, until the death of
the acciit-ed put an end to the case, just as
the General Assembly was about to pass
judgment against him!
Toward the middle of the century Albert
Barnes, the famous commentator, was tried
lor neresy ny tne A'niiadciphia Presbytery.
announced that Dr. Paton will not attend
Presbvtery during the progress of the trial.
If the report ofthe committee is laid on
the table to-morrow the effect will be to
force a complaint to Synod or to the Gen
eral Assembly, and thus secure an order for
the Presbytery to proceed with the trial.
Or in an extremity, Dr. Birch or some
equally earnest conservative will come for
ward and shoulder the responsibility ofthe
charges, and thus compel Presbytery to un
dertake the trial. A careful canvass of the
voters in Presbytery gives this result:
Ministers, conservatives, likely to vote
finally against the views attributed to Dr.
Briggs, 64; liberals counted as firm Briggs
men, 44; doubtful ministers not yet decided,
13; absent or disabled by sickness and
vacancies. 33; elders, two-thirds of whom
are anti-Briggs men, 55.
Giving Dr. Briggs all the doubtful votes
and half the elders, the conservatives will
still have a majority. But the numbers will
be greatly reduced by willful absenteeism,
and on a motion to compromise or to avoid
a trial, many of the conservatives will be
found voting with the Briggs men.
SUNDAY'S BIG PAPER.
EAILEOAD MEN'S TEOUBLES
I
ITS BEST roTNTS BOILED INTO A MNE
rTO GIVE A GLIMPSE
Hioflence was a denial of the Calvanistic
doctrines of the imputation of sin through
Adam's tall and of righteousness through
Christ's sacrifice The case was heard in
Synod and also in General Assembly, where
St resulted m Dr. Barnes acquittal. The
history of this case is the most amazing
theological wrangle ever recorded. Then
came the cae of David Swing at the close
1 the third quarter of the centurv. Dr.
Swiug's preaching was of the humanitarian
sort and not at all up to the Calvanistic
standards of Princeton College. Dr. Francis
J Patton pressed the charges o unevan
pelical preaching against the eminent Chi
cago divine with all the energy and torce
for which he has since become famous.
ACQUITTEH 111 l'ltESBlTKRV.
An acquittal in the Chicago Presbytery
ly a vote of 4. to lo was the first result of
this trial. Five davs after came Dr.Swing's
resignation, and in October of 1874 the
Synod of Northern Illinois reviewed the
testimony taken in Presbytery and found
that he ought to have been convicted.
Each of these trials was had upon charges
preferred by individuals. The prosecutor
in the case ot Dr. Briggs is the Presbyte
rian Church of the United States of Amer
ica. This was the first victory for the op
position. Dr. George M. F. Birch, a Penn
pylvanian, and valedictorian in 1858 of
Washington College, began the movement
against Dr. Briggs upon the appearance of
the famous inaugural address on the au
thority of Holj' Scripture. Although Dr.
Birch was a theologian and a student, he
took rounsel of Dr. Henry Van Dyke and Dr.
Shedd. On his motion an investigation of
the address was ordered by Presbytery, and
a committee favorable to Dr. Briggs was
appointed for the purpose. Young Dr.
Henry Van Dyke, a warm supporter of Dr.
Briggs, refused to serve on tne committee.
Another liberal man on the committee
wavered and Dr. Birch captured the com
mittee, bringing in a report recommending
a judicial inquiry.
Vhen the vote on this report was tasren
Dr. Brings' friends remained away from
Presbytery, and it was ordered by a vote
numbering about one-fourth of the voting
force of Presbytery. Then came the veto
at Detroit by "the General Assembly, in
which the conduct of Dr. Briggs' friends
was characterized by the same halting dis
position. THE PROGRAMME 1X)R TO-DAY.
In pursuance ofthe action of Presbytery,
the indictment against Dr. Briggs is to be
read to-morrow. According to the rule of
the Church nothing more can be done in the
ease for ten days. If the trial is to proceed
that time is necessary to acquaint the Pres
bytery with the charges and specifications
ot the indictment. I.ut -there is every pros
pect ef an immediate conclusion of tfie case
to-morrow in Presbytery in a manner that
tannot fail to be "unsatisfactory to the
Churcli at large.
Dr. John Hall, of the Fifth Avenue
Church, has advanced as the advocate of
peace, and has counselad and urged the
Presbyters to quiet Dr. Briggs' accusers and
to drop the case. I.ast summer before his
departure lor Europe, Dr. Hall urged this
course for the sake of harmonv in the
Church, and upon his return Ins efforts
wrre returned. Dr. Hall's argument is that
Dr. Briggs has cien full satisfaction to the
Churcli in answering the eight questions
put to him by the directors of Union Semi
nary and that his veto bv the General As
sembly last la is punishment enough,both
for him and the seminarv. Within the
past -week Dr. Hall has been button
holing Presbyters to secure votes for a mo
tion to be made on Monday morning to lay
the report ofthe prosecution committee on
the table and thus avoid the harrowing de
tails of a heresy trial.
DR. HALL'S MANY ESCAPES.
Another thing whose avoidance is greatly
to be desired is the necessity of voting on
the merits of the case. This Dr. Hall cs-
Jiecially feels, as he-has carefully arranged
lis business in the past so as to compel his
absence from places where this duty is re
quired of him. He escaped by a few hours
tlie rote in Presbytery last May; by a few
minutes the vote in Union Seminary last
Jane, and altogether, by resigning his com
mission, the vote in General Assembly at
Detroit.
One member of Presbytery who has felt
the effects of Dr. Hall's pleading is Colonel
John J. McCouk, of the prosecution com
mittee an elder in his church. At the
netting of Dr. Hall's session Friday night,
when a successor to Presbyter McCook was
to be elected, efforts were made to elect a
Briggs man to the place. Mr. Kobert
Beggs was chosen Presbyter and Mr. John
Sloane his alternate. Both are anti-Briggs
men, and the Fifth Avenue Churcli will be
represented again in Presbytery by a con
servathe elder.
Another man who is giving the conserva
tive trouble is Dr. Charles S. Kobinson, of
lit tan book fame. Dr. Kobinson was bitter
aniii-t Dr. Briggs at the May meeting of
"n-bytcry, but during the summer he ei
wnenced a change of heart, and his in
fluence is no cast iti, tjle peace party.
As the Fifth Avenue Church recently
adopted Dr. I'obinson's Hvmnal for its ser
vices, the influence of Dr. Hall with his
toother Presbyter mav account for the
trhanse of sentiment
UK. PAXTUX'.S CHANGE Ol" HEART.
Dr. John l:. Paxtou, the independent and
popular W'ashingionian, now occupying a
pnlpit in Forty-second street, opposite the
reservoir, has also changed his mind on the
Brigss case. In Ins peculiar daring way

The StntDAr Dispatch never was better

the columns of interesting features in the

convention of the Brotherhood ot Bailway
Trainmen of the United States and Canada
opens here at 9 o'clock to-morrow morning.
Eepr'sentntives of the larger part of 424
lodges ar already here. The three princi
pal issues to come before the convention are
relative to the discharge of the Grand
Trustees by Grand Master a E. "Wilkinson,
the discharge of the switchmen on the
Northwestern road and the election of ofn
cere. F. M. McNerey, the Northwestern
Yardmaster at Chicago, and the Trainmen's
Grievance Committee on that system are
here to explain'that difficulty to the con
vention. Grand Chief Conductor E. E.
Clark, ofthe Order of Railway Conductors,
is present and sustains the position taken
by Grand Master "Wilkinson and disap
proves the action taken by the Supreme
Council in expelling the trainmen.
Hon. L. S. Coffin, of Iowa, arrived last
night to advocate the necessity of automa
tic couplers for cars and Sunday rest for
railway employees. So far as the switch
men's trouble is concerned it is likely that
the convention will sustain the action of
the Grand Master. The latter part of the
week some action may be taken on the fed
eration question, but this will depend on
the action taken at the meeting this week
at Cedar Rapids of the committees of the
Brotherhood of Railway Conductors and
Order of Railway Conductors on the pro
position of a union ofthe two organizations.
