Special to The Georgian.
St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 10.—Itev. Dr.
Henry Stiles Bradley, formerly of At
lanta, but now pastor of St. / Johns
Methodist church here, one of the
largest and wealthiest churches In the
South, caused considerable comment
yesterday morning In a sermon wftlch
showed his views to be closely identi
fied with the scientific theory of evolu
tion.
Ho declared that the only way to be
delivered from evil was to overcome it
with good, and that the only way to
get evil out of life was to crowd it
out.
Struggle for Existence.
Dr. Bradley said that deliverance
from, evil was the result of the com
bined agencies of God und man, and
that God would not drag people by the
hair from danger, but would help those
who helped themselves. He said God
would furnish strength to overcome
evil, but would i*>t take people bodily
away from It.
Ho said that man was a slow breed
ing animal, but that under favorablo
conditions he hns doubled in numbers
In twqnty-nve years. He pointed out
that at this rate of Increase there would
not be standing room at two square
feet per individual in a thousand years
for the offspring of a single pair. He
said that this fact of geometrical In
crease necessitated what the scientists
call “a struggle for existence.”»
Where Conscience le Heard
“Everybody,” said Dr. Bradley, “rec
ognizes that this accounts for the phys
leal aspect of evil in the realm of living
things, but It leaves the problem of
moral evil, with which man has jo
contend, untouched. Can the evil im
pulses to murder, steal, lie and commit
adultery be explained on this theory,
and does it take account of secondary
evils like pride and vanity?"
Dr. Bradley said the exact stage In
the development of early man that the
point was reached at which he recog
nised the difference between right and
wrong will probably never be deter
mined by the scentlsts. He said the
problem for him was to find the point
between zero and our present condition
at which conscience first made Its voice
heard.
Sermon Causes Comment.
“Wherever that point Is at,” said Dr.
Bradley, •.‘which our early ancestors
voluntarily refused to listen to this
voire, will be found the first sin.”
Tho sermon was the subject for con
siderable comment and discussion to
day, and It again brought up the fact
that while pastor of Trinity church, In
Atlanta, charges were made against Dr.
Bradley, based on his views of evolu
tion and higher criticism, but which
never amounted to anything.
BAILEY'S DEFEAT

Anti-Bailey Movement Said
To Have Gained
Headway.
Austin, Texas, Dec. 10.—The nnti-
Balley movement has gained headway
throughout the state during the Inst
few days.
The leaders of the opposition to Bal
ley claim that seventy-two members of
the legislature have made it known that
they will not vote for Bailey’s re-elec
tion. Thla Is enough to defeat him.
Attorney General Davidson said that
he had no further reply to make to
Mr. Bailey; Bailey had called for the
proof of the charges which he had made
against him and he hod responded to
that demand by furnishing It, he said.

of the store fronting on Cherry street
Was a mass of flames, which were rap
idly eating their wny to other parts
of the big structure.
Heroio Work.
Within an hour the entire eatablleh-
ment was a roaring furnace Inside witii
flames bursting from tho windows of
every flooV and it was to coniine tho
fire* to the building that the firemen
devoted their efforts. A hard fight by
the entire department made this suc
cessful, although the stocks in ad
joining stores were badly damaged by
the dense smoke which rolled from
every window of the burning store In
clouds.
At midnight tho firemen had the fire
under control, but It was not until after
daylight tills morning that work ceased.
Two of the buildings occupied by the
store were owned by Mrs. A. A. Cole

ing Archbishop Ireland's promotion
other than that lie hed the greatest re
spect for tho archbishop as he had for
high church dignitaries of other
nominations and he add* and hla letter*
show, that he always pointed out In
rosponso to the repeated request* of
the fftorers, that it would be entirely
improper for him to take any steps to
urge the popevto any action as desired
by tho Storer*.
The statement of Storer that tho
president privately expressed an opin
ion contrary to that put In his letters
I* characterized e* an untruth and an
absurd untruth, and the admission
made by Storer that he made memo
randa of private conversations with the
president Is declare*! by Mr. Roose
velt to have been dishonorable If mude.
President Roosevelt quote* a letter
from Assistant Secretary of State Ba
con to Ambassador Storer, rebuking
him for his failure to answer tlio presi
dent's lettors. Tills was the final let
ter written to Storer by the stuto de
partment-
Was Fond of Storsrs.
The history of his acquaintance with
the Storer* is recited and the president
says ho first met them when he was a
civil Hervica commissioner and became
very fond of them. He says ho sub
mitted to conduct from Mr. and Mrs.
Storer to which he would have submit
ted from no other ambassador and Ills
wife and that he did not resent their
actions until they were likely to dam*
ago American interests.
It Is shown that from the time Mr.
Roosevelt was governor of New York
until he was vie© president and than
president the Storer* were asking fa
vors of him. and trying to get him to
u*e his influence to have the pop©
promote Archbishop Ireland. Mr.
Roosevelt say* he always pointed out
the Impropriety of his faking any stand
In the matter, but always assured the
Storer* that any promotion of an
American like Archbishop Ireland or
loyal, and that the pope was angry with
Archbishop Ireland for not stopping the
war.
How 8torsr Intruded.
The assertion by Storer that the re
fusal of the president to accept Ills
resignation was an Indorsement of his
conduct Is shown up by tho president.
He shows how Htorcr Intruded on the
statC department's business by writing
a letter to Senator Hanna criticising
Secretary llay for the dismissal of
Hurst. This made Secretary Hay an
gry, and when the president called
Htorer'a attention to thla kind of con
duct, the latter replied, offering his
resignation. Then It was that PresM
dent Roosevelt wrote film, saying tho
affulr was a closed Incident.
loiter ho wroto a letter confessing
he had done wrong, and asking the
president to offer an apology to Metre
tary Hay. This letter Is made public,
and it was In the nature of a complete
confession uiul of throwing himself on
the ^president’s mercy. The president
then wrote and otflled tho Incident
closed.
President Rebukes Storsr.
In the letter of rebuke the president
asked Storer not to quote him in any
shape or fashion In regard to the affair
of the Catholic church, and he also told
Storer not to take any action himself.
And in the sumo letter he told the
bassador the impossibility of the presl.
dent taking any part in this church
affair.
In closing Ills letter to Seereary
Root, President Roosevelt says there
could h© no fuller confession than that
made by Storer, and he declare* that
Storer, “with peculiar perfidy,” now
seeks to turn this act of cordial and
r ;enet*oiiM friendship in not removing

President Roosevelt further points
out that Mr. and Mrs. Storer were

he says, Mrs. fctorer wrote with great
bitterness against the Protestant mis

asked the president to champion
Archbishop Ireland's cause, claiming
he had been loyal to the United States

It was in response to this letter that
President Roosevelt told Mry. Storer his
