Dos Moines?, May 30.—-The first busi
ness session of the general Lutheran
synod convened! this morning, with 250
'.delegates present and visiting clergy
men: from Europe, Africa and India. The
iopic of dlmieslon this afternoon was
foreign missions, and addresses were
delivered by Hev. Luther M. Kuhlman,
of Frederick. Md. Rev. Dr. J. B. Aber
'y Gunter, India Rev. Dr. George AI
breclit, India and' Rev. Dr. J. H. iiarp-
Bter, India.
Addresses of welcome were delivered
last night by Governor Shaw, Mayor
Hartenbcjver and Rev. G. W. L. Brown.
The response was by the president, Dr.
S. F. Breckenridge, of Springfield, Ohio.
The iiermon of the president, Rev. Dr.
S. F. Breckenridge, was a historical re
view of the gc-neral synod. It was a
etrong, conservative plea for the estab
lished ei-eecf, showing the development
juu" "lumph over the efforts made 100
ijCi. ato liberalize it. He declared
the principles and protestantism and
Lutheranlnn and to be essentially these:
"1. The Bible as the only infallible
rule of faith and practice.
"2. The Justification of the' sinner by
ihl» faith alone, apart from the deeds of
the law, and, as some add1:
"8. The church Is the community of
which Christ is the individual head and
all the members priests unto God/'
Continuing, Dr. Breckinridge said:
"These ure the principles that under
lie the reformation, that were pro
claimed by the great reformer whose
name has been imposed upon us. They
were also adopted! by the evangelical
church, and no one denying any of these
principles can truly claim the name of
cither Lutheran or Protestant. It has
happened In the providence of God that
thin church is the oldest, by far the
most numerous and widely spread of all
the schools Into which Protestantism Is
divided. This church, tho tardy in its
coming, has found a place In free Amer
ica. It can scarcely be said that before
the arrival of Muhlenberg In 1742 a Lu
theran church existed in America."
The general synod, he said, was or
ganized In 1820, with these definite pur
poses In view:
"1. To restore the Pictistic spirit of the
Muhlenberg period.
"2. To promote learning, both secular
and theological.
"3. To protest against the rationalism
which had wrought untold1 havoc the
•church by bringing the Augsburg con
fession 'up out of the dust' and obligat
ing every man to subscribe to it, not
qua enus, but quia.
"4. Tho unification of tho church in
this country."
Interest centers in the contest for
president of the general synod. While
both the leading candidates belong to
what is known as the conservative ele
ment. the contest is of the liberals
jigainst the conservatives. Rev. Wil
liam S. Fix-as, of Baltimore, who was
secretary of the general synod for many
years and is now president of tHe board
of church extension. Is the candidate of
the conservative element. Rev. Luther
E. A!ber, D. D., of Germar.town, Pa.,
who has been pastor of the Trinity Lu
theran church of that city for lil'ty
years, and has held the position of sec
retary and treasurer of the pastor's re
lief fund, has been taken up as the can
didate of the liberal element which feel.i
confident of electing him.
Rev. Dr. G. W. Enders of York. Pa-,
and S. W. Owen of Hagerstown, Md
are-also spoken of as candidates for th»
presidency. It Is claimed that no doc
trinal question Is Involved In this con
test, and aside from this no spirited
controversy is now in prospect for this
convention.
The first Important business of the
tesslon was the election of officers for
the synod to hold for the next biennial
period: President, Rev. D. W. S. Freas,
Baltimore secretary, Rev. Dr. W. E.
Fisher, Snamokln. Pa. treasurer. Dr.
Louis Manns. Cincinnati.
THE"FIQHT IN LINN

cuses at Marlon.
Cedar Rapids. May 30.—The Cummins
forces carried every ward in Marlon at
the caucuses last night, which insures
a break in Linn county, as Marion is

convention.
The First ward was won by a vote of
two to one, the Second by ten to one,
and In the Third and Fourth the oppo
sition abandoned the fight,entirely early
in the evening.
The Second ward was nc-t satisfied
with putting none but well known Cum
mins men on the ticket, but Instructed
them for Cummins. The tight was
shnrp thruoul the day, and to show the
determination of the Cummins forces
it may be said that Senator Alexander,
whose name had been, placed on. the
ticket, was removed at the last moment
because of doubt as to his position on
the governorship.
The issue was square cut, and the
Cummins victory gives encouragement
to the Cummins forces in Cedar Rapids
where a hot fight Is in progress. The
Cedar Rapids cuucuses will be held Fri
day evening. They expect to get many
of the delegates, and have hopes of de
feating Trewin at the county conven
tion, which will be held June 3.

a Distinction.
Special
to
Times-Republican.
Clinton, May 30.—To Mark McKee, of
this city, a high school pupil and- editor
of the High School Optomist, belongs
the distinction of being the only press
representative to interview President
McKlnley on his way home from the
Pacific coast. When the president's
train came to a stop at Tama he was
handed a message from McKee, stating
that he would like to interview Mr. Mc
Klnley as a high school boy and editor
of a. high school paper. When the train
came to a stop at Cedar Rapids McKee
mounted the platform and, by a badge
he wore, was recognized by the presi
dent's private secretary, who received
the young man and introduced him to
the president. In telling of his inter
view McKee said, to a Clinton Herald
reporter: "Secretary Cortelyou intro
duced me to the president, who received
me in a very cordial manner. I extend
ed to the president the sympathy of the
piiipls of the Clinton high school and
said we were much disappointed that
the train was not to stop. Mr. McKln
ley replied that he was sorry that he
could' not meet the people of Clinton,
and hoped that he might be able to do
so at some future time. He asked about
the industries of. Clinton, Its churches,
•schools and colleges and seemed to take
a great interest in the place. He said his
trip had1 been ail exceedingly pleasant
one, excepting the liiness of his wife.
We talked for perhaps ten minutes,
then Secretary Cortelyou took me into
another car and introduced me to the
members of the cabinet. I was invited
to dine with them and accepted the in
vitation, being given a seat beside Sec
retary Hay. When the train wa.« ready
to pull out of Clinton we had not fin
ished our dinner, and Mr. Cortelyou
told the conductor to hold- the train un
til 1 had' finished my dinner, which was
about five minutes. They all bade me a
cordial good-by when I left the 'rain,
which stopped at the lower yards in or
der to avoid the crowd."

public gatherings prohlbitedv Every
precaution Is being taken to prevent
any spread of the disease, and to avoid
all danger to parties coming to town.

the public school this year. Professor
Oblinger has been retained for another

History of the Monument and
the Man Whose Memory
It Perpetuates.
Special to Times-Republican.
Sioux City, May 30.—Today Is a great
day in Sioux City and one which will
long be remembered. The magnificent
Floyd: monument, towering and sub
stantial, an Index finger in history and a
lasting testimonial to the heroism of the
first white man. who gave his life in the
service of the United States in ascer
taining what the lands were west of the
Mississippi in the territory of the
Louisiana purchase, was dedicated with
fitting ceremonies.
The exercises attendant upon the ded
ication were begun this morning. The
exercises were carried out on the bluff
overlooking the Missouri on which the
beautiful shaft stands. Col. H. M. Chit
tenden, United States engineer, deliv
ered the monument to the Floyd Me
morial Association, President John H.
Charles, accepting. This afternoon af
ter a big parade, led by the members
of the Grand Army of the Republic, the
principal exercises of the day were
held at the grand opera house where the
principal address was delivered by Hon.
John A. Kasson, on "The Expansion of
the Republic." It was a remarkable
oration, full of eloquence and power.
The program of the day wil! be
brought to a close «t the cort house
this evening: when James Davie But

FLOYD MONUMENT.
Dedlcatod Today at Sioux City.
at the discovery of Sergeant Charles
Floyd's journal and Dr. S. P. Yeomans,
of Marshalltown will speak.
Floyd was a. member of the Lewis and
Clark expedition, which explored the
Louisiana purchase in 1S04-1S06. Floyd
died near Sioux City Aug. iD, 1804, and
was buried on. a bluff on the Missouri
river.
There is more real history represented
in the monument erected above the
bones of Sergeant Floyd than In almost
any other ten monuments in the world.
Prophetic visions of the vast empire
west of the Mississippi prompted Thom
as Jefferson when president, to send out
the expedition of which Floyd was but
a chance member. His personal services
were but an incident, his death unim
portant to the party, and it is to the
Lewis and Clark explorers that the
monument Is In fact set up where the
people of three states may see It.
Charles Floyd was one of nine joung
men from Kentucky who joined the
Lewis and Clark expedition, organized
for the purpose of exploring the vast
tract of land west of the Mississippi riv
er, commonly known as the Louisiana
purchase. Bonaparte, acting for
France, had sold this wide territory to
the United States for $15,000,000 in order
that England might not come into pos
session of it. and It was with a desire to
know what sort of territory he had
bought that President Thomas Jefferson
called upon Capt. Meriwether Lewis, of
Virginia, to organize an expedition to
explore it.
Charles Floyd joined the expedition at
St. Louis in 1S03. The members of the
party camped in the vicinity of St.
Louis for a few months, and on May 14,
1S04, started on their long1 journey up
the Missouri, which was to take them
across the continent to the Pacific ocean
by a circuitous route. From records of
the Journey It is gathered that Sergean
Floyd was highly thought of by* those
who were associated with him in the en
terprise.
On Aug. 20, 1S04. at a point a short
distance below where Sioux City now
stands, Floyd died. His remains were
burled' at the top of a bluff half a mile
below the stream that now bears ills
name, Floyd river. In all probability he
was the first citizen soldier of the Unit
ed States to have been buried west of
the Mississippi river. The records of the
expedition state that he was buried with
military honors, and that his grave was
marked with a cedar post. The explor
ing party proceded up the river. On Its
return It visited the grave and fTund
that It had been disturbed, either by In
dians or wolves. The members filled up
the grave again and continued on their
way to St. Louis. C1-
Floyd's remains lay in their first
grave for more thaVi half a century—
until 1S57—until It was discovered that,
as a result of the falling, away of the
bluff, there wan danger of the coffin an
the remains falling into the Missouri
river. Pioneer settlers of Sioux City
visited' the place on May 28, "1857, and
rescued the remains from their perilous
position. They were r»lqt^rre4 on an
other bluff not far away, and- it was
generally understood at ihat timeithat a
fitting shaft should be erectMn- time.
In the excitement of the founding and
growth of as typical a' western city a
a
Sioux City, however, sentiment cut .but
little figure, and the explorer's grave
waa neglected.

Tho the grave was nogiveted, It was
not forgotten, audi on August 20, 1895,
services were held on n' j-ine, and the
Floyd Memorial Association, which is
to be given the credit for erecting the
monument, was organized. A number
of prominent persons have identified
themselves with the society. The ofllcerf
are: John H. Charles, oi Sioux City,
president Mrs. Frances X. Davis, of
Sioux City, secretary D. A. Magee, of
Sioux City, treasurer. In addition to
these are the following vice presidents:
Judge George W. Wakefield. Sioux City:
ex-Congressman George D. Perkins,
Sioux City ex-Mayor Maris Peirce,
Sioux City J. N. Field, Manchester,
England Portus B. Weare, Chicago R.
C. A. Flournoy, Sioux City Horace O.

rich. of the historical department of
Iowa Mrs. Elliott Coues. Washington,
D. C. H. D. Clark, New Haven. Conn.,
and Dr. S. P. Yeomans, Marshalltown,
Iowa.
During the last five or six years the
Floyd Memorial Association has held
memorial exercises on each anniversary
of Floyd's death, and has never relaxed
its efforts toward the erection of a mon
ument in memory of the explorer. The
monument is now- completed, and is a
magnificent piece of work. It is made
of Kettle river standstone, and is 100
feet and 3 inches in height. The cost
was about $15,000. The United. States
government gave $5,000. and the state
of Iowa gave $5,000. The city of Sioux
City gave about $1,500, and other dona
tions to the fund were made. The mon
ument stands on a high bluff overlook
ing the great Missouri river, from which
point one can look over the vast prairies
of three states, Iowa Nebraska and
South Dakota.
The principal address at the dedica
tion this afternoon was inade by Hon.
John A. Kasson, of De.s Moines, one of
Iowa's most honored citizens. Few men
have been in public life as long as he.
Mr. Kasson was assistant postmaster
general in Lincoln's first administration,
andi has been in public life ever since.
He is nflted for his oratory and diction.
Other speakers were Prof. J. D. Butler,
of the University of Wisconsin, at Mad
ison. Wis., who holds the distinction of
having discovered' Sergeant Floyd's
diary, and Dr. S. P. Yeoman.", of Mar
shalltown. Ia„ who was one of the
Woodbury county pioneers who assisted
in the rescue and reinterment of Floyd'1!
remains in 1S57.
