Masons Are Excluded From This Church.
The Iowa. General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church adopted, after
n. heated discussion, the report of the Judiciary Committee, excluding from mem
bership in the church all members of secret societies "anti-Christ" in their teach
ings or rituals.
An amendment to- except Masons from this category was votad down.
Many members of the assembly wore In favor of including labor orgintza
tlons, which they characterized as Chrlstless In their tendencies and Influences. If
not In their teachings.
One member of the assembly declared ne would rather cut oft h'n right linnl
than vote to exclude Masons from the United Presbyterian Church.
Another delegate declared that It was the duty of tho church to exclude from
membership all pagans, whether they enlled themselves Masons or by tome
other name.
Some members of the assemhly hold thnt the effect of .the adoption of the
Judiciary Committee's report Is to put out of tho United Presbyterian Church all
members of secret orders who nre already members of that church.

General Assembly at Des Moines
Excludes Members of Secret
Societies From Church.
FINAL VOTE WAS 90 TO 63.
Heated Debate on Report of Judi
cial Committee of United Pres
byterians Favored Fntting
Labor Unions Under Ban-
lies Moines. Ia.. May 25 By a vote of SO
to 3. this afternoon, the Iowa General As
sembly of the United Presbyterian Church
adopted the Judiciary Committee's report
with regard to an Interpretation of article
1T of the creed.
The cctlon of the assembly is in effect to
exclude members of secret orders from ad
mission to tho church. It la also interpreted
by some of the delegates to mean the" ex
pulsion of members of the church who now
belong to secret societies.
The final discussion en the auestlon was
long and heated. M. C. McKlttrick of Los
Angeles. Col., said he would rather out
off his right hard than to vote for the ex
clusion of members of secret societies al
ready In the church.
"If we let this report go through as it
1b." said Dcctor McCreery of Pittsburg,
heatedly, "wo are saying that men who
have been good members of the United
Presbyterian Church for years must be
turned out of doors. I want to tell you, fa
thers and brothers, that If we pass this
report without amendment we are going
to make more trouble than the United
Presbyterian Church haa ever Been."
"Opposed to Labor Unions."
Some members of the assembly, who are
most violently opposed to secret orders, ob
jected to the section of the report of the
committee which removed the ban of the
church from organizations which do not
"inculcate a Chrlstless religion."
It. G. Campbell, who moved to strike out
the section of the report which said the
testimony does not Include such orders, held
that labor unions should not be approved
by the church. This Idea was strongly op
posed. Tho contention of some was that unions,
so far as secretlsm was concerned, were
more to be feared than any other order,
while the ministers and delegates, from
Pitthuri Pa., maintained that if such a
nnsitlon was taken by the church that.
worklngmen would be barred from being
admitted, and that the churches in Penn
sylvania would suffer materially In the
withdrawal of a great many of its mem
bers. m . .
Working-men Defended.
Doctor J. M. Wallace, also of PltUburg,
Pa., sold: "I do not believe that the church
should be stirred up by an overture. For
the sake of the worklngmen I do not want
this part of the report stricken out. The
worklngmen have Just aB good a right to
form a union as Morgan has a trust, and I
do object to the worklngmen being kept
out of the church because they form them
selves into a union to protect themselves
against their oppressors."
The Reverend J. ,F. Ross of Ohio favored
the amendment because tho great secret or
ders are rivals to tho church, for the rea
son that they trade In a false religion.
They have wine parties, cam parties au
many other 'snares," concluded the speairar.
In oloetng up me ueoaie, .tmuiur vr
said: "I am ashamed of tne united rres-
bytertan Church.ln Its snutmng in tne mav
ter. The report of the committee is more
i ih nolnt than the amendment proposed.
In the report we say we shall not take pa
gans into the cnurcn. even it xney are cumru
Masons. We say laboring men. Grand
Armv men and such nave rignts m mo
ohurch."
Masons Hit Not se jiumiiKu.
"What will be the effect of this report,"
asked Doctor McConncll, "on thoe who are
already Masons and In the cnurcn .'
Thn a a most difficult thing to handle,'
said Doctor Grler, "but when men know
the truth and do it not, to thorn it is to bo
counted a an.
Tb Reverend B. R. Little offered an
amendment which would permit Masons
to become members of the church, but It
was voted down.

Philadelphia. Mav 2!. Tim nno biin,trvi
and thirteenth Presbyterian General As
sembly was dissolved at 6:15 o'clock bv
Moderator Mlnton. after havlnor bwn In ses
sion nearly two weeks, during which" time
many matters of the utmost Importance to
tha church were considered. Chief among
these was the question regarding tho revi
sion of the Confession of Faith. After a dis
cussion continuing nearly four days this
momentous subject was referred to a special
commiixee. wno win maKo recommendations
as to the manner In which the creed should
be revised and present them to tho next
general assemblr. which meets In New
York.
To-day, for tho first time since tho as
sembly convened, the equanimity of tho
commissioners wjs disturbed by the intro
duction of personalities. Tho trouble oc
curred during the discussion on the chair
manship of tho Revision Committee.
The Reverend Doctor J. D. Moffat sug
gested a change In tho minutes of yester
day's session so the records would show
that a new committee had been appointed
to revise the creed, regardless of the old
committee, of which the Reverend Doctor
Charles A. Dickey wns chairman. His
suggestion was adopted and the Reverend
Doctor James E. MotTatt of Cumberland,
Md.. moved that Moderator Mlnton be elect
ed chairman of the committee.
Doctor Xlccolln Rrl-1 Qa-itlii.
Thii incensed the friends of Doctor
Dickey, and, although Doctor Moffat's mo
tion prevailed, the subject was revheil
later In the session by the Reverend Doctor
8. J. Niccolls of SL Louis.
Doctor Niccolls moved to reconsider the
motion, but as he had not been present
during the earlier debate, he was declared
out of order. The motion to reconsider was
then renewed by the Roverend W. D.
Crockett of Canton, Pa., and many of the
commissioners participated in the debate
that followed.
Realising the delicacy of his position.
Moderator Mlnton relinquished the ohalr to
Vice Moderator Pltcalrn.
The matter was finally adjusted by Doctor
Dickey, who advised Uie assembly against
reconsidering the motion, sayinir he was
confident thero had been no attempt to
cast any reflection upon him. but tliat tho
commissioners merely desired to honor his
successor as moderntor.
Rector Dicker's Friends Lout.
Doctor Dickey's friends wanted the elec
tion of the chairman to bo made by the
committee. In which event. It Is conceded.
Doctor Dickey would have been re-elected.
The motion, however, was lost.
There are still six members of tho Re
vision Committee to be appointed, but
Moderator Mlnton said to-day that he had
not yet made any selection.
Tho closing hours ot the assembly were
devoted to routine matters. The report of
the Committee on Temperance urged min
isters to call the attention of Congressmen
m their district to tho necessity for tho
completion of legislation now pending re
garding tho drink trnfflo In tho Islands of
tho Pacific.
The report also urges the Government to
take effective action toward tho suppression
of tho liquor traffic In all of our new is
sessions. The committee on the Peoria plan of se
lecting standing committees approved tho
system.
In accordanco with the resolution offered
yesterday by John H. Converse of this city,
a special Committer n Evangelistic Work
was appointed.
In dissolving the assembly. Moderator
Mlnton made an eloquent address, and bo
fore the final benediction was pronounced
the commissioners sang tho beautiful hymn
"Blest be tho tie that binds."

Port Arthur, Tex., May 2S Tho Waters
Fierce Oil Company is preparing to handle
the output of the Beaumont oil field.
The question of n market for the oil Is
ono that has caused some little uneasiness
among oil men. Thes' had no misgivings
ns to the demand, but it has been fre
quently said thnt the getting of oil to the
purchaser was a more dilllcult question to
holve. The' Waters Pierce company now
proposes to solxe tills question, and Presi
dent H. Clay Pierce of the company gave
out something of his plans to-night.
-ur. i-ierci came over irorn uuiiMun mis
morning, and after spending the day there
In company with PreMdcnt S. It. Knott
came here lntu this afternoon. The Repub
lic correspondent, who called on President
Pierce, said he was here to Inaugurate
plans for the handling of tho oil from the
Beaumont held.
"Ours is the only comrnny with sufllclent
equipment to handle the Beaumont oil, and
wo proiioso to take hold of the mntter. We
are now here to perfect these arrangements
and will begin on the details at once."
Tho Waters Pierce Company is now op
erating extensively in Texas and Louis
iana, nnd their coming Into the Beaumont
Held with tho. proposition to handle the oil
is a matter of sreat import. Mr. Pierce
was in conference with President Knott ot
the Kansas City Southern to-night In the
bitter's private car. They were discussing
mattern In connection with Mr. Pierce's
new moc.
General Manager Ddson of the Kansas
City Southern was also present at the con
ference. "Would Constrnt-t a Kellner.
In speaking of his plops, Mr. Pierce said
his company would erect a plant at Port
Arthur, uy which It Is tmpposed ho meant
a rellnerv and a pumping plant. It ' also
krown that the Kans is City Southern will
build a bU freight depot In Port Arthur,
and It Is bolleved that operations will hu
carried on here on a Hrge sc lie..
When nskid how he intended handling
the nil. Ml. Pierce said:
"We v. Ill buy from everybody and show
the same consideration to all. We will bo
prep-ind to ship oil to all parts of tho
world. Wo will be in position al-o to fur
nish fuel oil to all railroads and manufactories-
'Whin ufcked w'hat he thought of the
Beaumont Held, Mr. Pierce remarked that
the held was now a very busy place. He
further said that tho supply of oil would
unquestionably be sulllclent to warrant his
company In tho expenditures that will 1
made In preparing to handle the output of
the Held.
Mr. Plerco 'will meet several expert oil
men during his stay here, and a thorough
Investigation of tho Held will be made. That
his visit will mean much to the oil pro
ducers of this section thero Is ho doubt, ns
Judging from Mr. Pierce's, statements his
tompany will make extensive Investments
In connection with Its plans.
While other companies arc boring wells or
contracting for pipe lines and tankage after
tl.eir wells are In. tho Guffey company Is
piping the product of Its six gushers to
tank steamers at Port Arthur, loading tank
cars ai mu ueiu nnu nnuung on to near-Dy
ccn-umeia In tank wagons. It Is rumored
here, and not without somo basis for the
statement, that the Guffey company Is buy
ing oil from other companies on the hill.
If this be true, then It Is only In accordance
with the plans of President Guffey unfolded
the day after his !15,toO,C0Q company was
chartered, to tho effect that he expected to
1-ave tho most perfect facilities in the field
for markotlng Beaumont oil, and that he
would be In a position to purchase crude
rotroleum from tho other producing com
panies. Arthur Rnthbone of Bradley, Pa., an oil
expert, arrived hero this morning from
Tamplco. Mexico, where he went to Inves
tigate tho oil dlscoverlen. He says that
wells are being sunk, but that oil has not
been found In great quantities. The Gov
ernment requirements In the way of a per
centage, ho says, are something of n bar to
the development of the country. As he ex

BY VOTE OF 15 TO
ACCEPTS PLATT AMENDMENT.
Majority Report of Committee on Relations, Embodying the
Amendment, With Explanations of Certain Clauses, Was Adopt
ed by a Bare Majority of One Gomez, Tamayo and Fortuondo
Arraigned Conservatives as "Trators" and "Perjurers."
Havann, May 2S. The rintt amend racnt wns accepted by the Cuban Consti
tutional Convention to-day by a vote of 15 to 14. The actual rote was on accept
ing the majority report of the Commltteo on notations, which embodied tbo
amendment, with e plana I ions of certain clauses.
Tlie Undlmls made a hard lipht at the last moment, and Scnores Portuondo,
Gomez and Tamayo bitterly arraigned the Conservatives.
Senor Tamayo was particularly vindictive, and declared that everybody who
toted in favor of tho Piatt amendment was a traitor to his country.
The convention compelled him to rotrnct this statement.
On several occasions personal encounters seemed imminent,
Senor Gomez spoke for more than on hour, and his speech undoubtedly won
over Senores Castro, Itobau and Manduley. lie denounced as perjurers all who
favored the Piatt amendment, on the ground that they had sworn to draw tip a
constitution for an independent republic.
Several Conservatives rose and asked Senor Gomez to retract, but he abso
lutely refused.
The following delegates voted against the majority report:
Gomez, Gener, Portuondo, Lacrct, Manduley, CKnoios, Kerrer, Fortun, Ko
bau, Tamayo, Silva, Castro, Zayas and Alemiin.
Senores Itivera and Itraro were alisnnt

Washington, .May 2S. Briefly stajed, tho
effect of tho Piatt amendment will be to
give the Cubans equal rlght-t with the citi
zens of all the Stntcs of the Union. The
guaranties reculreil are no more than are
absolutely essential to the protection of the
Interests of tha United States.
The Piatt amendment v. Ill enable the Cu
bans to establish a government of tbolr
own and to treat with tho United States
upon all question?.
Eventually, if the Cubans decide that
they wish to become a State In the Union,
after they shall have established their i?ov
ernment. it will be a question for the peo
ple of this country to decldo If the State of
Cuba shall be admitted.
Until the Cubans Bliall have established
their own Independent government they
can maKo no treaty1 wlthlthe United Statec.
Tho adoption of the Piatt amendment
seems, unavoidable, because, unfortunately,
the treaty of peace with Spain Imposed up
on this Got eminent the obligation to pro
tect life and property and maintain stable
government there.
The Piatt amendment enables the United
States to intervene In certain contingencies
to protect tho Cubans from any foreign foe.
It would so lnturvene. In pureuanco of the
Monroe Doctrine, in any event.

The following Is the toxt of the Piatt
amendment:

entitled "for the recognition of the Independence
of the peoplo of Cuba, demanding that the Gov

ST. LOUIS ASD THE CXPOS1 TIOV.
Corwln II, Spencer, In the absence of for
mer Governor D. It. Prancls, responded to
the toast, "St. Iyiuls and the I-otilalnna
Purchase Exposition." He said. In part:
"I greatly appreciate the privilege of
having the opportunity to meet with you
upon this, the occasion of our Inaugural
dinner. I murt confers that It Is with
some feeling of embnrrassment that I nt
tempt to nddross you. ns it was well un
derstood that ex-Oovernor Francis of Kt.
I-oiils was to bo the guest nf honor nnd
respond to tho toast assigned to me, but,
by reason of hit unavoidable absence, as
ha" been explained In his message of re
gret, he was obliged to cancel his engage
ment; but I know- that he did not do eo
until the last moment, hoping ho might
be with you to-night.
"I stated I was .somewhat embarrassed,
nnd my embarrassment comes from the
fnct that I stand before jou In place ot
the man who Is going to make possible tbe
holding of one of tho greatest expositions
In tho city of St. Louis In 1M3 that tho
world has even seen. He Is a man who
has never yet failed In any undertaking,
nnd 19 recognized by his business asso
ciates nnd by oil who know- him as being
able to perform, with credit, any duty
assigned to him.
How MIsKonrl Will "Show 'Mm."
"It has been frequently sild by some
that the people of St. Imls had under
taken a project that they would not be
able to carry through successfully, and I
wish to tnlte this opportunity nf explain
ing to the mcmberB of the Missouri So
ciety something of tho work that has been
accomplished by our people up to the
present timo In the aid of this Exposi
tion. "The city of SL Louis has rnlsed by pri
vate subscription the sum of over live
million dollars; tho city of St. IjiuIs, by
almost unanimous vote, authorized an In
crease of her municipal debt In the hum of
live million collars in mc am oi tins .ex
position: the Missouri Legislature at iw
Inst session appropriated the sum of one
million dollars for the State exhibit: the
Federal Government at tho last session at
Congress appropriated the sum of live
million dollars, being the largest appro
priation ever made by the Federal Con
gress for a like purpose, and wc will ex
pend before the gates of the Exposition
are opened not less than twenty-live mil
lion dollars.

"I presume that this does not appear to
be a very large sum of money to a man
living In New York, where people are
accustomed to dealing In transactions In
volving many millions, but we propose
and will expend more money than was ex-
? ended In the city of Chicago In building
heir great exposition of 1S92-1S93, and to
convince you that we are financially able
to carry forward this great enterprise, t
would like to call your attention to some

a constitution, -schlch, either as a part thereof or
In an ordlnanco appended thereto. sbaU define
tho future relations of the United States with
Cuba, substantially as follows:
rirst That the government of Cuba shall sever
enter Into any treaty or otber compact with an?
foreign power, or powers, which will Impair or
tend to lmptilr the Independence of Cuba, nor In
unv manrer aumorun or permit any roreign
permit any foreign
power or powers to obtain, by colonisation, or
fit., mllllnn1 ir nmnl minviitf ,. nthu lulas
loilrment in. or control over, any portion of thei
mia ibiann.
Second That said Government snail not assume
or contract any public debt to pay the Interest
upon which, and to make reasonable sinking:
fund provision for tho ultimate discharge of
which, the ordinary revenues of tho Islands, &f
or defraying the current expenses of Goveii
mer.t. shall bo inadequate.
Slllltarr Administration Ratified.
Third That tho Government of Cuba consents
that the United States may exercle the right
to Intervene for the preservation of Cuban In
dependence, the maintenance of a Government
equal to the protection of life, property and In
dividual llbertv. and for discharging Uie obliga
tions with respect to Cube. Imposed by the
treaty of Paris on the United Stales, now to be
iisxiuned and undertaken by tbe Government of
Cuba.
Fourth That all acts of the United States in
Cuba during Its military occupancy thereof are
ratltled and validated, and all Ian rut rights ac
quired thereunder shall be maintained and prt
terted.
Klftb That the Government of Cuba will exe
cute and, as far as necess-iry. extend the plans
already devised, or oilier plan, to be mutually
agreed upon, for the sanitation of the cities of
the Inland, to the end that a recurrence of epi
demic and Infectious dleases may be prevented,
thereby assuring protection to the people and
commerce of Cuba, as well as to the commerce.
of the Southern ports of the United States and
the people-residing Viereln.
Sixth That the Isle of Fines shall be omitted
from the proposed constitutional boundaries of
Cuba, the title thereto being left to future ad
justment by treaty.
Seventh That to enable the United States to

defense, the Goverenment of Cuba, will seU or
Icaso to tho United States lands necessary for
coaling or naval stations at certain specified
points, to be agreed upon with the President of
thn United States.
Ebrhth That bv
Eighth That by way of further assurance tha
Government of Cuba will emlody the foregoing:
provisions in a permanent treaty with the United
biatis.
have not kept pace with tbe progress: of
the great Southwest.
"I find, upon Investigation, that the
lead and zino produce alone ox the State
of Missouri for the venr 1300 was $9,600,00",
almost two-thirds of the amount paid for
tbe cntlro Louisiana territory. St. Louts
to-day ranks as tho fourth city of the
Union In "population; she Is also fourth In
manufacture, and her estimated output
annually Is thn enormous mini of S330.0L0.
OW; she is the termini of twenty-five rail
roads. Sho has tho largest Union Station
in the United States, and. I might say. In
the world: she Is the largest horse and
mule market; also, the largest hardwood
lumber market. She Is first In the manu
facture of street cars. She ranks to-day
as the second shoe distributing center, nnd
at the present rate of progress will soon
take first place in that industry. She
manufactures more tobacco than any city
In the world; she nlso has tho largest
brewery In the United Statts; j-he has the
lnrgest hardware houe in the world a.nd
distributes more than dO per cent of the
woortenware sold In the United States.
She ranks as the thlnl largest dry goodi
market nnd Is third In manufacture and
distribution of furniture. She nlso has
thn largest drug house but one In America,
and Cupples Station, which Is unique,
theie being nothing like It in the United
States, it offering the most economical
method of receiving and distributing mer
chandise In large quantities at a minimum
cost. Our public school system Is unex
celled, and we nlso contribute our share
to the support of the Federal Govern
ment, the Internal revenue collected dur
ing the calendar year 1300 amounting to
$r.TT6,MR, being more than the entire sum
that was paid for that vast territory
known as the Louisiana Purchase."
Mnrk Tirnln on Missouri.
Tollovvlng Mr. Spencer, Mr. Thomas Intro
duced Samuel M. Clemens (Mark Twain),
who was greeted with enthusiastic cheers.
Mr. Clemenn lost no time In convulsing tho
house with laughter. He started on by
giving Mr. Spencer a rub on tho statistics)
he had Just delivered himself of.
"I have been ns much Impressed as has
the toastmaster by Mr. Siwnccr's speech,
and confused also." said Mr. Clemens.
"Statistics alvvnys have that effect as they
rise higher ami higher to tho sky, and al
ways In th" same proportion they become
more Inexplicable.
"I was glad when I heard It stated that
Missouri had turned cut I.SM.OOO.OOO mules.
(Roars of laughter.) It's from Missouri,
and it Is expected that It Is to be believed.
When I was- vomit; and In Missouri I be
lieved such things. It was a h.ihit: I had
it myself. But. now I have como to this
grav- part of the country, where the peo
ple rely largely upon truth. It Is not to ho
expected that I would believe any such
varn.
Ills Idea of the Unlr.
"I don't know what this Louisiana Pur
chase Is about, but If they have borrowed
$2r,CV).000 and they propose to secure a like
M,m In some similar questionable manner
for the purchase of Louisiana, I don't ap
prove of it. You nil know you can't buy
Loulslana for any such sum ns that.
"This glorifying of St. Louta Is likely to
have a bid effect upon you. because it is
likely to raise jour pride in your own State.
Put there 1? room -for It between here and
the 7.nlth. You must keep these things in
lounds.
Some Eminent Mlssourlnns.
"George Washington was a Mlssourian.
Ho was that, not by accident of birth, but
by his primacy In tho achievement of lib

his country. That made him a Mlssourian.

were over, Harry tV. Walker moved
that a permanent committee be appointed,
with Augustus Thomas as chairman, to
draw up a plan of organization and by
law which shall govern the society. This
committee will call a meeting early In tha

ST. LOUIS ARCHITECTS
OFFER THEIR SERVICES.
At a meeting of the St. Louis chapter ot
tbe American Institute of Architects, held
last evening at the Mercantile Club, It was
decided to tender the services of a com
mltteo of architects, for consultation and
advice, to the officials of the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition Company.
The "matter came up after the routine
business of the meeting had been trans
acted. The concensus of opinion, which
prompted iiie,.'ictlon. was that such expert
service would ! of Incalculable value in
rendering the E.xpo'tion an artistic and a
financial success. The tender will be mad
to Pre-i''--' F-nncls and tho cancers of the
company to-day.
