DR. PETERS
ON BAPTISM
EMINENT CLERGYMAN SPOKE
HERE LAST NIGHT.
He Loft tho Presbyterian Chinch
Two Yenis Ago to Become n Bap
tist and He Told a Large Audience
in the Penn Avenue Baptist Church
Some of the Reasons Which
Prompted Him to Take Such a
Course Baptism Not a Saving
Ordinance He Declined.
Hew Dr. Maillon P. Peters, who le
slgncd Mom the pastorate of one of the
largest and most Inlluuutlnt churches in
New Yoik city to enter the Huptlst ele
uoinlnittlou, and who Is now the pastor
of the Emmanuel Mnptlsl chinch at
Haltltuoie, dollveied a lectin a las.t night
In the Venn Avenue IMptlst chiiteh, lit
which he gave the letisons which led
him to embrace the llaptist faith.
Dr. I'etets wide fame as u pulpit
otator and lectuier attiacted a laige
gathering fiom all pails of the city,
which he charmed by his eloquent and
forceful discussion ol the fundamental
doctrines of the Hapllst chinch. Ho
was hi Icily Intioduceil by S. Fletcher
Woyhutn, piesldont of the Huptlst
Social union, under whose auspices tho
lecture was given.
Dr. Pcteis said, in beginning, that he
became a Jlaptlst thiough iieaicful and
conscientious study or baptism. Ho dc
claied that a study of all the authori
tative hisluiltins of all denominations
led him to unieservedly believe that
baptism In the pilmltive church was
adminlsteicd by inuncislon only. All
leeognled standard hlstoilans admit
this, he wild. The Gieek church, which
he declaied to bo the oldest living
Christian chinch, pwtctlces baptism by
Immeislou.
Ho then traced the history of bap
tism by spilnkllng. which was lirst au
thotlzcd in special cases by Pope
Stephen II in MI, but which was not
cleat ly anil definitely defined until 1311,
when It was formally declared to bo lit
and pioper by a church council. Dr.
Petets then took up the views held by
John Colvin and John Wesley on the
subject of baptism by imincision, and
showed how each of these lellglous
leaders admitted that it was the method
employed in the primitive church, and
weie inclined to the belief that it was
the only proper method. If the Pres
byterians and the Methodists followed
the lead of the founders of these
chinches, he said, baptism by immers
ion would be today a tenet of the re
ligious cteeds of these churches.
Scriptural Grounds.
lie dwelt at some length upon the
Scrlptutal giounds for a belief in bap
tism by itmneision, paying especial at
tention to the passage describing the
baptism of Philip and the eunuch, in
which the inspiied w liter said that they
went "into" the water. To asset t that
this means that they only went "to"
the water is to assert that "Into" has
the meaning of "to" in every other
place wheio It is used in the same con
nection, nnd to declare that no man can
enter "into" the kingdom of beaten, but
only "to" it.
"Eaptistn is only a symbol," he said,
"but It Is a gloilous symbol o faith,
and because it is a symbol 1 pleach it.
Destioy the symbol and you destioy
the thing symbolized."
If baptism is a symbol of thu tiimnph
of Chi 1st over death and of His lesur
lection, what likeness can theie pos
sibly be, he asked, unless the whole
body N immeised in the water and
then lifted out Into the light and
bilghtness without?
"Baptism," said lie, "Is a bymbol of
Cluist's lesuiieetlon; a sjinbol of that
act by which lie abolished death, rolled
hack the .stone fiom the tomb and
painted upon the black clouds ot de
spair the lalnbow of iimnoi lality."
He then discussed the question of In
fant baptism, which, he declaied, has
no waiiant In suipluie. Theie is not a
single lecorded iustain o of a baptism
in the new Testament, he said, in which
It was not an act enteted into by the
peisonal and ilellbeiate choice of the
pet .son baptised. The custom of infant
baptism, ho said, Is bom of the old
en or that baptism Is necessary to sal
vation. Infant baptism, he said. Implies a
libel on God. It Implies that baptism
is a saving oidiuance and no matter
how much people who beliee In It
may sny aloud, they all have a seciet
fear that If their little Innocent child
ten should die unbaptlztd, they would
be lost for eternity. It is an outiageous
peiveislon of the gospel to declaie that
theie is sulptuinl waiiant for the as
set tlon that baptism Is a saving otdtn
ance, ho said.
To believe this is to believe th.it God
is a t.vwint, o veiltnhle demon, Dr,
Petei.s declaied that he believed Clod
would sooner have a man deny him
than to asseit such a belief. It places
the mlnlstei In the position of a winker
of mliacles, he said.
"The minister becomes n -teiltable
ponder woiker, If we believe such a
thing," said lie. "Hete Is the child, a
lump of depiavlty. At this moment ho
Is a tit candidate lor peidltioti, but, lo!
and behold, tho ileigjmnn nppioauhes
with a ilttial In one hand and a bowl
of water in the other. Heigh! Presto!
the child of peulltlon becomes a child
ot God and the woiker of mliacles
pockets a good sized fee,"
Uaptlsm, ho said, does not save. II
has no saciamental elilciency. People
am baptized not to be saed, but be
cause they ate saied. The blood of
Chtiht Is the only thing that can wash
away the sins of n man and make him
h! to as snow. While not essential to
salvation, U neeitheles, essential to
a complete obedience of God's com
mands and to a complete satisfaction of
mind nnd heiiit. Obedience of aod's
commands, ho said, is not optional, but
obllgatoty, and baptism H a test of
obedience,
hi closing, Dr. Petets bald that he laid
doiwi one of the most atti active posi
tions that a minister could wish for,
because ho became coinluccd that his
place was beneath the Baptist banner,
Ptonouneed and poweiful as was tho
sot tow of separation, the complete and
pleasuteablo patlfcfactlou of having
lived up to his convictions has mote
than compensated him for It.

Eiank Doinbacher Resignsi and Ac
cuses Captain Knollcr, of Hose
Company No. 0.
Flunk Donilmcher, petmnnont man
at Hose eompnnv, No. !, foimetly the
Century company, yesteiday tendetod
his resignation to Dltector of Public!
Saftey Vormser, alleging us tho cause
thereof his inability to get along with
the captain, Edward Kneller.
Accompanying his resignation he pre
sented a list of written chaiges against
Captain Kneller, which he asks Direc
tor Wormser to Investigate. There are
a number of these charges, many of
them being ot a minor nntuic, but bov
crul of them ote serious. The most
important one is that Kneller purloined
certnln articles during the piogtess of
tho Florey & Btooks' flie last spring.
Dliector Wormser has not yet accept
ed Dombacher's tesignation, but he lias
decided to Investigate the charges pre
fer! ed against Captain Kneller.
Ho will today appoint a board of in
uuiiy to consist of live captains, which
will probably sit tomorrow night to
hear evidence in tho case. This board
w 111 decide its to the guilt or Innocence
of Captain Kneller and Director Worm
ser will abide by Its decision.

BAPTISTS CELEBRATE
100 ANNIVERSARY
Intel estintj Exeicises Held by Mem-
beis of the Faith at Waverly.
History of Organization.
The mcmbeis of the Hapllst chinch
of Wavetly have been celebrating, tho
past two days, the one hundredth ttn
nlversaty of the otganlzation ot their
church. On Nov. 17, 1801!, a council
was called at the homo of William
Clark, a Resident of Ablngton, now
Waverly, 'and tho church was organ
ized. It Is the oldest Baptist chut eh
In the Ablngton Baptist association,
and Is the mother church of many
other chinches in this vicinity. Dur
ing its history ten pastots have setved
the church. The, Hist was Rev. John
Miller, who for fifty ycat.s was pastor
of tho church. The other pastors were:
Revs. Hopper, Fox, Cole, Caulkin, Per
ry, AVclthoise, Btone, Botzong nnd tho
present pastor, Rev. W. F. Claik, who
has been with tho church for over a
year.
The annlvcrsaiy celebration began on
Sunday moining with a special ad
dress by the pastor, and in the even
ing a delightful musical programme,
Including a sermon, was rendered
Yesteiday morning the Baptist lnlnls
tet.s' confetence was held in this
chutch. Rev. A. II. Smith, of Scran
ton, piesldent of the conference, pre
sided, and a scholarly and Intctcstlng
paper was lead by Rev. R. F. Y. Pieice,
D. D., of Scranton, on "Paul in Rome."
In the afternoon another session was
held, presided over by the pastor of
the church, Rev. W. F. Claik. Rev.
Thomas do Gruchy, D. D of Scranton,
read the Scripture lesson, und Rev. R.
R. Thompson, of Dalton, offered prayer,
after which a most enjoyable address
was given by Rev. David Spencer, D.
D., of Blakely, on "Reminiscences of
tho Ablngton Association." Tho clos
ing session of tho celebration was held
last evening, at which a history of the
church was read and an addiess was
delivered by Rev. D. E. Lew Is, of West
Plttston. The people of the church
hospitably entertained all visitors in
the chmch patlors for dinner and sup

OBJECTION IS WITHDRAWN.
Controller Approves Dliector Worm
ser's Peed Bills.
City Contioller Cost-ilo has with
drawn bis objection to the piyment of
feed bills contracted by Dliector of
Public Safety Wormser and has ap
proved the bills which lie has been
holding up in his otllce.
It will be lemembeicd that the con
troller lefused to approve the bills be
cause Mr.Wotmser had not entered into
contracts for the pur. base ot the feed.
The director in a oonfeience with the
conttollet showed him that he always
asks for bids when In need of feed and
that he invatiably aw aids the pui chase
to the lowest bidder. He explained that
he does not enter into long contiacts
because of the fluctuating pi ices of hay
and oats. This explanation satisfied
Mr. Costello and he has agreed to ap
prove all such bills In the future.

Consideration at Its Meeting in
Washington, D. C, on Jan. 13.
Four Now Membors Elected at Yes
terday's Meeting nnd Five Others
Proposed for Membership Board
Decided Not to Have a Banquet
in January Next.
At Its meeting tit noon yesterday the
Set anton boaid of trade adopted the
following 1 evolutions, Intioduceil by
Colonel F. L. Hitchcock, for considera
tion of the National Boaid of Ttade,
which meets in Washington, D. C,
Tuesday, Jan. Ill:
ritst Resolved, that the National
Hootd ot Trade again tiroes upon tho
eongtcss, as an olllclent means ot pro
moting, extending und safe-guarding our
conuneiclnl and Industrial Interests, the
necessity of creating tin additional execu
tive department of the government, to bo
styled tho department of commerce and
Indiistilea.
Second Resolved, by the National
Board that tho congress, be requested to
amend thu postal laws: ''lrsl So us to
provldo Immediately for one-cent local
letter postage, and, as soon as practica
ble, for the s.imo gcncial letter rate.
Second To correct existing abides In the
ue of the mull, for tianspoitallon of
maltir, o that all classes of matter shall
pay their Just cost of transput tutloti, nnd
thus avoid existing losses In such ser
vice. Third Resolved, first, that tho con
gress be requested to tako up the subiect
ot inter-stato cotporatlon control, anil,
If ptnctlcable, enact such laws us will
piesctlbe, dcflno nnd limit the povvcis ami
obligations ot all coiporatlons doing an
Inter-stato business, to tltc end that all
such coi potations shall be placed on the
same footing with refciciuo to such pow
ers and obligations: ami in the eerclbc
and cnjo.vment ot tho patnn shall bo un
der proper national supervision and con
trol. Second If the congress should be
of opinion that under tho Constitution It
does not possess thu power to so legis
late, then It bo requested to prepare and
submit to tho ecveiul states for ratlli
eatlon, a constitutional amendment con
ferring upon congress the power to grant
corporate charleis, for inter-state and inter-national
purposes; and to legulate,
limit and control existing corporations
doing an Inter-state or Inter-national
business.
Fourth Resolved, that the congrers be
urged to so amend the national bank
ing laws as to pcimlt national banks, In
times of cmetgency or In anticipation of
a special stringency in the money mar
ket, to Issue nn emergency currency, in
volume, together with existing Issues,
equal to their capital stock, or any por
tion theieof. based upon assets, the na
ture of the securities to bo approved by
congress and the comptroller of the cui
roney; such cunency to be letired at the
option of said banks, nnd again telssued
under like conditions, as often as may be
deslted. Such emergency currency to be
taed one per cent, per annum for such
time as the same shall remain in circu
lation. Resolution Changed.
The fouith lesolutlon, as presented,
piovlded that the comptroller of the
currency should be the audge of the
worth of the assets on which the emer
gency currency should be based. J.
A. Lansing and T. H, Dale thought
this was putting too much power in
the hands of any man and that it would
be a veiy dangeious thing to do as
the cunency system of the countiy Is
at best a delicate thing to appioach
with the idea of changing.
Both agreed with Colonel Hitchcock
thnt the country's cunency at piesent
lacks the elasticity necessary to tide
the business of the countiy safely over
peiiods of sttlngency which come at
intetvals. It was agreqd to amend the
tcboltttlon by piovidlng that congiess
be the judge of the nutute of the as
sets on which emergency cunency can
bo issued.
Colonel F. L. Hitchcock, Luther Kel
ler and Secietaiy C. S. Seamans were
elected delegates to the national boaid
meeting and J. A. Lansing and D. B.
Athetton and E. B. Sturges, alternates.
