SEES DEATH AS AID
IN CHURCH PRAYER
Pastor Deojay Mentions
Funerals as Help to
End Wrangles.
Here is the essence Of the prayer of?
fered by the Rev. .1. Albeit Deojay,
pastor of the Mariner's Harbor Baptist
Church, Btaten island, recently:
".May our Heavenly Father remove
any stumbling blocks thai stand In the
nay of the spiritual welfare and prog- ;
ress of this chtirch even if removing
them necessitates Thy superintendence
Of a few first class funerals that the
work of .le.sus may go on unbind? red.''
"Hid you offer any 8**ch prayer?" a
reporter for The Tribuno asked the
minister last night.
"Is it not the same prayer that Is go?
ing up from the lipa of hundreds of !
ministers of the Hospel every day'."'
countered Mr. I'l-oja...
"But it seems somewhat unusual.
doesn't it?the first class funeral
part'.*" suggested the reporter.
"What la unusual about it? I don't
1 see anything. It seems to me a good
i prayer and a proper gne.
"There has been all sorts of troubla
in the .Mariners* Church. Three dea- ;
(uns have been leading a fight against
their minister, and the latter has taken
up the cudgels in his own behalf
with a will which they hardly bar- '
gained for and Which they assert has
led him to pray to Heaven to slay
them.
"What is the trouble down here, you
ask'" said Mr. Deojay; "the trouble is
simply this: Th.* members "f this
church are so diseased, so thoroughly
dlaeaeed, that 1 can see no hope for '
their recovery? Tea; it's a hopeleas
[ case. 1 haw prayed over them and
fought for their salvation, but they ,
are incurable.
"For twenty-eight years they hav??
forgotten the teachings of the Lord ,
and they have fought each other and
I their ministers. Three years ago they i
drove away my predecessor and nearly |
succeeded in blasting his reputation."
"1 admit I am discouraged.''
"Have they asked you to resign?" '
he was asked.
"They have not, and, furthermore. I
won't resign. I have no intention of'
i resigning."
"But Mr. Wheeler, one of your ?lea
cons, said that you called a meeting
last Wednesday to sound your ?ongre
gation on the question of your getting
' out. and they voted for you to resign,
45 to ZL"
"That is not a COITOCl statement,"
: he replied, and, after some hesitation.
[?continued: "A more fair statement
would be this: It Is impossible to get
the Bense of this congregation. There
are three factions, and you couldn't
get them insiiie the church to save your
Ufe at the same time. That was not
a fair vote. You see, there are a num?
ber Of children, and they really don't
know what th.-v an? voting about.

I will refuse h:m and others in opposi

[From Th?? Tribun? Bureau !
Washington, June 3. A territorial

' ernment hy a lej-islatnre and the Phil?
ippine Commission, will he provided In
'an administration bill to he introduced

Mr. .Tones conferred to-day with
Presi.ie'it Wilson on legislation con?
cerning the ultimate independen? e of
the Island's. He declined lo reveal the
d?tails Of the hill, which will have the
approval of the White House, but from
trustworthy s>.ur?*es it In learned that
the measure vv ill provide for a new pol?
1 icy as follows:
Ble-ction by the Filipinos of a Houae
an?l Senate, the latter with a member?
ship not to exceed twenty-flvs and the
former with a membership not ex?
ceeding 100.
For the present a governor-general
of the islands will have a veto power
over the acts of the Philippine Lai -
lature. leu unless ele. vu no other
American will have a dominating in?
fluence in legislative affairs.
No specif!? time is to be set in the
bill for the actual Independence of the
Island**. The Filipinos. In effect, will
be given a tryout at self-government,
an?i Independence will coma not on a
?lay certain, as p!-o*poaed in the Jones

The bill will set forth in specific

capable of Independence and self

CARRANZISTAS IN **
CONFERENCE ON REPLY
TO MEDIATORS' NOTE
Confident at Niagara Falls That Answer to
ABC Let.er Smoothing Way for
Rebel Envoys Will Be Favorable.
SPECIAL WIRE TO DURANGO BUSY
Interests of Rebels. It Is Said, To Be Abundantly ?Safe?
guarded in the Character and Sympathies of the Men
To Be Chosen for the Provisional Government.
Interest in the mediation of the Mexican troubles rested wholly
last night in General Carranza, chief of the revolution.
His answer to the letter of the ABC diplomats was awaited
with no less interest at Niagara Falls than at Washington.
Sent from Canada to Senor Zubaran, the Constitutionalist agent
in Washington, the letter was forwarded over a special telegraph
wire to the Constitutionalist chief at Durango. and confidence was
expressed at Niagara Kails that a favorable reply would be received.
Zubaran and his associates frequently interrupted their tele?
graphic discussion with Carranza to consult with their local counsel
and John Lind, and the wire was kept busy up to a late hour.
Meanwhile every assurance is given that the interests of the
Constitutionalists will be safeguarded by the Peace Conference in
the selection of the personnel of the proposed provisional government.
Men will be chosen, it is said, whose character and sympathies
will leave General Huertas foes no logical ground for complaint or
misgiving.
President Wilson, it was again made plain, is anxious for the Con?
stitutionalists to be a party to the mediation, because of his unwilling?
ness to have to force them to accept the solution of the problem that
may be reached at Niagara Falls.
