2 THE ATLANTA GLOTiOTAN AND NEWS. Relief Secretary Declares Money-1 Mad Corporations Take Better Care of Their Employees. A hitter attack on what was de scribed ms the niggardly policy of the church in dealing with its ministers was made by William H. Foulkes, of Philadelphia, secretary of the Minis terial Relief and Sustentatlon Board, at Monday's session of the Northern Presbyterian Assembly. That the Presbyterian Church, after paying its ministers an average sal ary of only $730 a year, should make no adequate provision for the time of their disability he regarded as an indictment more severe than could be made against any money-mad cor poration in the country. He charged that ministers of the church are in a bondage of fear and that they are not treated even with common humanity. “One criticism made of our min isters." he said, “is that they are not good business men. It is said that too many of them are tempted by these get-rich-quick financial schemes by which they hope to reap profits of 20 to 2. r » per cent on their modest investments instead of 4 or 6 per cent they more reasonably should expect. Average Salary Only $730. “But is this to be wondered at when one considers that the average sal ary of a Presbyterian minister is only $730? He gets so little that 4 per cent on his savings would yield prac tically nothing. “I am not condoning him fdr bring ing shame upo himself and upon the ministry, but conditions under which he works sliould be changed and pro vision made for the time of his dis ability. The price of fuel and provisions has gone up instead of going dow n. The minister must buy clothes and must care for the needs of a growing family. He must buy books and con tribute to benevolences which moot him before they meet the people of his church. Ho* must be prepared for times of sickness and death. All this he has to do on the average sal ary of $73n a year. He must live so that the richest of his church may not despise him nor the poorest envy hitti. "When a minister can do this he has reached the pinnacle of financial statesmanship. "Medicine, law, civil engineering promise for those who follow in these professions wealth or a comfortable living for old age. as well as glory and fame and dominion for middle “The ministry draws by reason of its most noble mission. 1 would not give up the privilege of preaching the Gospel to the lost and the dying for everything else in the world. Offers Little But Poverty. "Yet the ministry, once the preach er passes the meridian of life, offers little but poverty and dependence. "Young men will continue to enlist In the sacred cause. Nothing can prevent that But they will enlist with a blunted enthusiasm, for they know that the church will leave them poverty-stricken and helpless.” Mr. Foulkes is engaged in a cam paign for a $10,000,000 relief and sus- tentation fund to be used in caring for the aged ministers of the church and for the widows and families of those who are taken by desth.

"elect infant clause" recommended that the deliverance of the Assembly of 1902 he reiterated; that the Scrip tures warrant the belief that all in fants dying in infancy are saved, and that in view of this no recommenda tion regarding any change in the Con fession of Faith be handed down to the presbyteries touching the "elect Infant clause.” Dr. W. M McPheeters. of Colum bia. cautioned against the adoption of the report. Speaking for the report of the com mittee of which he is chairman, Dr T. S. Clyce said the Confession of Faith in its entirety suits him, but the passage conveying the teaching of tne church on the election of infants is not dear; that the people are de manding a change of expression, many wanting it stricken from the confes sion. The church, he said, gives forth the hope that all infants dying in Infancy are saved, and that it is the duty of the church to express that hope. Speaking again. Dr. McPheeters urged that all reference to the As sembly of 1902 be stricken from the report of the committee and leave the report to recommend that no sug gested amendment be sent down to the presbyteries on this question. Difference of Opinion. Remarks from a number of com missioners were heard, some speak ing in favor of the report and others In favor of the amendment. When the call for the question came, the vote was taken first on the amendment offered by Dr. McPhee ters and the amendment was lost. Before the vota on the report could be taken, Dr. J. M. Wells offered as a substitute’ to the report the recom mendation that the whole of the "elect infant clause" be stricken from the Confession of Faith. The vote was taken and the sub stitute was lost. No recommendation for change in the. "elect infant clause" is sent down to the presbyteries, and the Assem bly reaffirmed the action of the As sembly of 1902. The remainder of the session was devoted to addresses and reports. United Church Takes Stand for Workingman. The General Assembly of the Unit ed Presbyterian Church resumed its session Monday morning at 9 o’clock at the Central Presbyterian Church. The first report heard was that of the committee on reform. This was a special committee, composed of five I members, three ministers and two j elders, as follows; Rev. J. R. Jamie son. chairman; Rev. S. A. McCallon, ! Rev. R. M McCracken. Elders John j Brownlee and Peter Broth^rton Three j papers had been referred to this com- I mlttee. the report of the permanent I committee on temperance and othei j reforms, report of committee on Sab bath reforms and a communication from the Federal Council of Chris tian Churches in America, relative to the exposition at San Francisco In 1915. The report said that the committee finds much to encourage it in the re view of conditions that confront the church to-day in civil, social, moral and religious life, and in various agencies employed in. bettering condi tions. They rejoice in the "enactment of the Webb-Kenyon interstate com merce bill In the closing days of the last Congress, and its passage over the veto of the President by an over whelming vote by both branches of < ’ongress, w hich was a severe blow to j the liquor traffic and indicative of a ! nation-wide sentiment not even | dreamed of by the most sanguine friends of temperance.” Grape Juice Diplomacy Praised. | They also rejoice in the attituvle j taken by the President. Vice Presi dent and Secretary of State in ban- | ishing liquors of all kinds from White ; House functions during the present administration. The following recommendations j were submitted; 1. Support of the following organ izations and agencies is commended to the people The National Reform Association, the Anti-Saloon League, tiie W. C. T. U. and the Lord's Day Alliance. 2.

The city government and direc tors of th** Panama-Pacific Exposi tion. to he held in San Francisco In 1915. are urged to adopt every pos sible means to prevent the exploita tion of the exposition by commercial ized vice, and to protect visitors from all evil influences. 5. Gratitude Is expressed to God for the institution of the Sabbath, and for history’s evidence of blessing upon the nations and individuals who have honored the Lord's Day. 6. The growing tendency toward a careless observance of tho Sabbath by professing Christians is viewed with alarm, and a more aggressive policy in defense of it is urged. 7. The efforts of the National Re form Association to preserve in its purity the Sabbath is commended for support. 8. The national officials are urged to make all appropriations to the Panama-Pacific Exposition condition ed upon the exposition managers signing contracts to close said expo sition on Sunday. 9. Congress is asked to pass strict er laws in the District of Columbia prohibiting all unnecessary work, theaters and games on the Lord's Day. 10. Fitting observance of Lord’s Day Week, April 19 to 26. is urged. 11. It is recommended that unceas ing war be waged by all cities and commonwealths against prostitution and the white slave traffic. 12 Bible reading is urged in all public schools. The members of the committee put themselves on record as standing for: For Workingman’s Rights. 1. Equal rights and complete jus tice for all men in all stations of life. 2. Protection of the family by the sin gle standard of purity, uniform di vorce laws, proper regulation of mar- riage. and proper housing. 3. Aboli tion of child labor. 4. -Such regula tion of the conditions of toil as shall best safeguard the health and moral welfare of the community. 5. Pro tection of the individual and society from the social, economic and moral waste of the liquor traffic. 6. Suita ble provision for the old age of work ers and those incapacitated by injury. 7 Principle of conciliation and recon ciliation in all industrial disputes. 8. A release from employment one day in seven. 9. The most equitable of the products of industry that can ultimately be devised. The report was adopted and short speeches of fraternal greetings were delivered by Rev. Charles Parker, D. L>. of Pittsburg, Pa., for the Re formed (jjhuirh of America, and Rev. 1. M. Kennedy, of Ora, S. <\, for the A. R. P. Church. The report on industrial reform stated that the last two years have been notable in the number of laws placed on the statute books by the workingman, and he is beginning to recast the Constitution and remold in a measure political platforms. Dr. Stone Makes Reply to His Critics. The reply of Dr. John T. Stone to the ory of “politics” in his election as moderator and a new proposal for the federation of the Presbyterian churches of America were the import ant features of Monday’s session of the Northern Assembly in the Bap tist Tabernacle. Dr. Stone deplored the introduction of personalities into the conferences of the Assembly, but would not com ment at length on the charge that his election as a "dark horse" had been prearranged for six weeks before the meeting of the Assembly. "If any have erred in judgment, let us overlook it. or, better still, look not at it.” he admonished the commis sioners. "1 wish to state that all 1 have to say is that 1 believe in God. I believe in my brethren and I be lieve in doing my duty.” Deny Charges. Dr. W R. King, of .Monmouth. Ill., who made the nominating speech in behalf of Dr. Stone, said in regard to the charge that politics had been played in the selection of the Chicago man: ■ It is absolutely false. I nominat d him simply and solely because I tv Warded him as the best man. Then was no chicanery or trickery or po litical prearrangement of any sort. I wish to say that the story is the cru- elest sort of an injustice, both ,to Dr. Stone and to the persons who assisted in choosing him to lead the delibera tions of the Assembly." W. T. Ellis, who seconded the nom ination. said: "If there is a particle of truth in the story that Dr. Stone's nomination was in any way prearranged, then, obv? ousiv. since we explicitly stated to th contrary, neither Dr Kin*- nor myself is a gentleman or a sincere «"hristlan. Therefore, the subject is out of the realm of discussion on my part.’’ White City Park Now Open F young roosters,” was the comment of one enthusiastic citizen. Eager to Boost, Atlanta. Themselves bubbling over with the Atlanta spirit, the Old Guard mem bers left looking forward to a good time for themselves and good adver tising for their home town. "We’ll do everything on earth we can to boost the town.” said C. P. Byrd, first liteutenant of Company A. "Atlanta first, last and always is the motto of the Old Guard. 1 think this is as big an advertisement for At lanta as the Shriners’ convention will be.” "Everybody knows the Atlanta spirit that permeates us all, but they will know it better before we get back,’’ said P. F. Clarke, first lieu tenant of Company B. Colonel J. F. Burke, commander, gave out the following Interview: Big Time in Boston. "The big time will be at the ban quet in Boston, after we. a Southern battalion, have escorted the Union veterans over their own city. I w ill be one of the speakers at the banquet, and l intend to tell them something. 1 intend to answer, in the proper way, the old statement that the South w*as lacking In patriotism, and to bring out certain points of history that have not been made as prominent as they should be.” "We’ll fight for Atlanta," said H. M. Beutell. Edmund W. Martin said: "We are going to do our best to please our friends, the Yankees, to astonish them with our friendship and invite them dow n here. Keep alive the memories of the past, and peace at present— those are my sentiments.” I rn going to do my darndest to keep this shako on my head,” said Tom H.

"I will gq to the Peeks- Kills and see my mother. who is the best friend 1 have." Captain W. M. Crumley, of the colo nel's staff, put it this way: "We are going to give them just as hot a time up there as they gave us in Virginia 50 wars ago.” And this is what Ben Lee Crew, the color bearer, intends to do: "That big white banner with the gold fringe weighs 40 pounds, so I am going to boost Atlanta with 4ft pounds of steam. Atlanta will be heard from." Four members of the Old Guard have been selected as the orators for all occasions. They are Colonel J. F. Burke, Harrison Jones, J. R. Smith and W. S. Wit ham. Only Four “Seventy-niners.” Mr. Witham. sometimes known as "Wall Street Witham. the Banking Trust." is also the poet and humorist of the Old Guard. He told his board of directors good-bye and went away, saying. "I'm the most important man in the whole Guard, for I am going to carry the big bass drum." Only four "Seventy-niners”—those who made the trip 34 years ago—left on the present tour. They were Colo nel J. F. Burke. C. P. Byrd. P. F Clarke and Chief W. B. Cummings. The Old Guard members wore their resplendent full dress uniform, which was never on parade before. It con sists of broadcloth, moleskin jackets, navy blue trousers with white and gold stripes, gold epaulets, Hungarian shakos and real swords Every gold button bears the inscription. "Old Guard—Gate City Guard, 1855.” and every sword has the engraving. “Old Guard. Georgia." At the Terminal ^ crowd estimated at 1.500 gathered to cheer the Old Guard on their way.

LONGSTREET PLEADS IN SENATE Declares She Was Made Victim of Power Company and Political Spoilsmen. WASHINGTON, May 19.—Mrs. Helen D. Longstreet, of Gainesville, Ga., who has been replaced as post mistress there by an appointee of President Wilson, appeared before the sub-committee of the Senate Post- office and Postroads Committee to day to protest against her removal from office. She said that she was the victim of the Georgia Railway and Power Company, of Georgia, which she fought, and of Democratic political spoilsmen. She was appointed by President Roosevelt, whom she call ed "the first statesman of the land.” “It remained for President Wilson’s 60-day Postmaster General to attack my record,” said Mrs. Longstreet. "The people who have been familiar with my work for eight years are more competent to judge of my effi ciency than he." Mrs. Longstreet says she has no desire for office if the administration does not want her, but she .will not submit quietly to the attempt to "blacken" her record. She presented many indorsements and declared that her office was "the best managed of fice on the Western Continent."

More Arrests Are Denied. It was positively denied by the trio of officers, however, that any new ar rests were to be made. "I don’t know* who it would be,” re plied Chief Lanford when asked a di rect question. The first conference was held w*hen Solicitor Dorsey summoned Chief Lanford to his office. The two were closeted for nearly an hour. Then Chief Lanford called Detective Scott to the police station. The Pinkerton man. when he arrived, declared he had no idea what the chief should want with him. He and the chief were behind closed doors for fully an hour or more. "We have merely been looking over the evidence in a general way," said both officers when they emerged from the office. Asked as to the. nature of his con ference w*ith the Solicitor, Chief Lan ford made the same reply. "We were just going over the evi dence," he said. No Friction, Chief Asserts. Chief Lanford also denied that there had been any friction among the officials over the work on the mys tery. or that the conferences had any bearing along this line. As to a re port that he had withheld evidence from the Solicitor, Chief Lanford said: "I don’t remember of having with held any evidence. Mr. Dorsey didn’t ask me anything about this report at all.” The Solicitor and the Pinkertons have held no conferences. Detective Scott makes reports to Chief Lan ford and these are submitted to the Solicitor. Detective Scott said Monday that he still has five men at work on the mystery, but refused to discuss any particular line on which they are working. Colonel Thomas B. Felder an nounced Monday morning that he had received w*ord from William J. Burns that he would arrive in America be fore June 1 and would probably be on the scene of the Phagan slaying be fore that date. Colonel Felder said the great de tective had taken an unusual interest in the Phagan mystery and he would not be surprised to hear from him in America any day soon. "Burns is more interested in this i-ase ihan I have known him to be ii: another," said Colonel Felder. "I am advised that he will hasten his re turn from Europe on this account and be in America some days before June 1. He will, of course, come direct to Atlanta. "The meantime developments since his investigator has been here arc more than satisfactory. The Burns detective convinced Mr. Dorsey Sun day afternoon that he had touched upon heretofore overlooked evidence of importance, and in his report to day we expect valuable information." Search Grows More Active. With investigation into the mystery more active Monday than it has been at any time during the last two weeks, the Solicitor was hopeful that impor tant developments would be made during the day. The special representative of the Burns agency was reported to have struck upon an important and hereto fore overlooked clew that throws a new light on the case. He will make a definite report at 11 o'clock this morning at the office of the Solicitor, when It is not unlikely some an nouncement will be made. Leo M. Frank, the factory superin tendent, received a large number of visitors at his cell in the Tower Sun day. He would not discuss the case, or even comment on it. He said his health was fine and he had accus tomed himself to the daily routine in prison. The examination of the handwrit ing of the negro. James Connolly, held at the police station in connection with the murder of Mary Phagan. failed to connect him with writing the notes found near the slain girl’s body in the basement of the pencil factory, according to City Detective John Black, Monday morning. The detective said that unless the negro could be connected with the crime in this way there was nothing against him. Atlanta Party Has Remarkable Escape in Collision at Ea~t Lake Road Crossing, Five prominent Atlantans had a re markable escape from death a rail road crossing on the East Lake Road Sunday afternoon when a Georgia Railroad passenger train struck the big Winton Six automobile In whicn. the party were riding and hurled then* all out. # J The autoists were J. H. Hirsch, of 345 Myrtle Street, owner and driver of the car; Mr. and Mrs. L. R. Car michael and the 15-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Carmichael. All escaped without a scratch, except Mr. and Mrs. Car>- michael, who were slightly bruised, but badly shocked. Winter Alfriend and Hughes Rob erts came up in a machine just after the accident happened. Mr. Alfriend took Mrs. Carmichael in his machine and rushed her to her home, 645 Edgewood Avenue, Inman Park. The Hirsch car was badly dam aged. Hirsch Tells of Crash. The accident occurred about 5:30 o’clock as the party were riding into town od*er the beautiful East Lake Road. Mr. Hirsch told the story of the accident to a Georgian reporter as follows: "There is a little house and an em bankment at the East Lake approach to the crossing and I could not see. I had slowed my machine down to a walking pace and listened for a tr^in, but could hear none. ■* * "Just as we came upon the track the iron monster was upon us. I do not know at what rate it thundered up. but it looked as big as all the trains I have ever s*een combined into one. "We were almost on the track. I shoved on my emergency and turned my car as much as I could in the di rection the train was going. No Time to Leap. “That was all that saved us. In stead of absolutely demolishing us the train sideswiped us. We all tried to jump, but did not have time—we were hurled out. "Except for the shock none of us were hurt to amount to anything.'
