Most ot the newspapers of Germany to-day. print long dispatch es discussing the arrival at Stockholm. Sweden, of three "American" Socialist ropre* sentatives, Boris Reinstein, of Buf tr.lo; Dr. Max Goldfarb, ot the New York Forward, and D. Davidoviteh The newspaper, however, carefully refrain from reproducing the infor mation in the Stockholm journals as to the non-American nationality of these men, who have come to par ticipate in the international Socialist peace conference to be held here. The German newspapers reprint prominently Reinstein's statement that the declaration of war by Presi dent Wilson was the "work of capi talists in the interests of Wall street with which President Wilson is closely allied!' and that it was "or dered because Wall street believed Russia might conclude a separate peace with Grmany, giving Germany the victory which had to be pre vented at any cost." • • HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH SCORE MEETINGS ON WEDNESDAY Presbyterian Association Wants Organizations Not to Interfere With Services An interesting session of the Pres byterian Association of Harrisburg and vicinity, comprising the pastors and officers of the various churches, was held at the Capital Street Church last evening. J. Henry Spi cer, the president of the association, submitted for consideration th 3 question of the gradual invasion of the midweek service by organiza tions and societies which have chos en Wednesday evening for their reg ular meetings. He also suggested that many social functions and conferences were fixed for the same evening, when any oth evening would have done just as well. As a result of Mr. Spicer's re marks on the subject the whole ques tion was threshed out awl the fol lowing resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas, We view with regret the tendency of various organisations, societies and other bodies in arrang ing their meetings for different pur poses so that they interfere with our Wednesday evening church services; And whereas. We believe it our duty as representing a body of Chris tians to protest against the use of Wednesday evening ror siich meet ings: Therefore, is resolved by the Prcpbyterian Association of Harris burg and vicinity it> our quarterly meeting assembled, to sincerely re quest the different associations in our city to so arrange meetings as not to interfere with the religious work of our churches on Wednesday evening. Tells of Assembly The next regular meeting will be held at the Immanuel Presbyterian Church. An appropriation of $25 was made for the Red Cross cause. The Rev. Dr. John R. Rendall, president of Lincoln University, and a commissioner to the last General Assembly, gave an interesting talk on his impressions of that great gathering. He also told of the work of the Lincoln University, the pastor of the Capital Street Church, the Rev. Mr. Ward, being a graduate of that institution. Mr. Ployer, of Me chanicsburg, also a commissioner to the General Assembly, supplemented tlie observations of Dr. Rendall con cerning the work of the body at Dallas.
