To-Day Text . of Articles of Agreement. H?It la probable that no body of men Of -more distinguished personnel and fnore Intellectual ability has met In r ? i?harlotte than the Federation of "Presbyterian Churches which for the ,-&,;Cat two days has been In session tn .j"" this city. The delegate are men of .experience, of dignity and of trained -,, .minds. They are men of such ability. i ' v wiei, Mia iroin ir.p interest o; in - measure;! before them for considers- tn they were listened to with the 1 51 closest attention. ,The chairman, Rev. J. P. Searle, D. D.. Is an executive offlrer of mom "'t' than ordinary ability, and under hi directions the proceedings of the con ference were carried out with prompt ness and yet with the greatest care, no question being passed over hurried ly. Dr. Searle is at present professor of systematic theology In Union The ological Seminary, of New Brunswick, New Jersey. He Is a native of New Tork, and, previous to his acceptance Of his present chair, he spent 15 years in the pastorate of his Church the (Reformed Church in America. He is an alumnus of Rutgers College (found ed In 1784) or the Theological Semi nary. He has been chairman of the three sessions of the Federation Con ference held, and has the confidence of the entire body. The statement as to confidence la true also of the secretary, Rev. J. D. 8teele Ph. D.. and he, too, has served the three seasions of the conference In that capacity, and his ability as a careful, painstaking secretary can never be questioned, and his re-election twice to this office is testimony Of this fad. Dr, Steele wi born In Pennsylvania and was educated in the University of that Ktste and at the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary of Philadelphia. He has been a pastor for fifteen years Bnd has been moder ator of the General Synod of his Church, the Reformed Presbyterian Church. At present he Is pastor of the First Reformed Presbyterian Church In Pasalc. New Jersey, and also occupies the chair of Hebrew and Old Testament history In the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary In Philadelphia. The three sessions of yesterday were confined slmost entirely to the consid eration of the revision of the name and the numbering and wording of the articles in the plan of federation. At the morning session Rev. Dr, Searle conducted the devotional exer- ) Cites. The Hcrlpture lesson read was tha 13th chapter of I Corinthians, af- , , ter which prayer was offered by two of ' ' ths delegates. .The address of Rev. J.'R. Howerton, X). D., favoring federation as the meana to organic union was thought- . f ful, earnest and convincing. He held J Ine close attention of the conference, na the convincing effect of his ad dress was evident In the sub sequent remarks of other delegates. He stated first that he had hesitated for 11 months as to saying what he Would say this morning, but that he felt it his duty to speak plainly on the Question as to whether this council is to be made a council of federation or Imply co-operation, whether these ar ticles were to be strengthened or Weakened. V He stated further that while he was Dot prophesying, he would venture the prediction that In 26 years or less lima there would be organic union be. tween the Churches represented In this council, and that In 50 years they will all be one; that this organic union may come within ten years be tween some of these Churches. Whether II i U'unterl r tin! " matA tie, this union is coming, and thA question is whether it Is to come by the swallowing proems or by federa tion. ' "1 want It understood that I havs Only the most friendly feeling for the Northern Presbyterian Church.

In reply Dr. Howerton said he had received hjs commission by word of mouth, that tie had not transgressed his right as a .member of the commis sion..: .", ." . . The conference then took ud again the consideration f the article of. the rin vi reaerwion,: . , . Rv. Dr. F. H. Caftnon made a mo tion, as a substitute, to. Include In. Ar- tici-4i tnis expression: "The , cotjneii shall exercise only advisory authority except In cases Where power is-conferred upon it by specific acts of con stituent Churches,", and In this con nection he said: "My purpose in raising thia Question was that we might know what power this council is to have. ,: J believe authority should be advisory except Jn such cases an those Indicated in Article II. My judgement Is that It Is unwise to Invest the council with more than advisory power." Later In answer to a request to that effect, Dr. Cannon withdrew his substitute with the power to renew it later. - On this subject of advisory power Hon. H. W. Jessup aaid: "Article IV is the germ of Article VI, and if this council Is to be a Court of arbitration. It is only fair and right that we face It now. Power to act is preferable to advisory power, for there Is no uso In creating machinery If we give It no power." Rev. Dr. Robert M Kenzle said: " 'Advisory' Is a congregational term. and has no analogy in Presbyterlan lsm. We are now discussing the source of power and not inherent oower." On this point Rev. Dr. Roberts said: "As to the past history of this plan, keep In mind what powers are In the constituent Churches we are onnslder ' )g. Have we In mind supreme Ju dicatories only, or subordinate Judica tories as well hope we hav In mind only supreme Judical ories." The next speaker was Hon. C. IT. Alexander who said on this point: "There can be no arbitration without power to arbitrate. The term 'arbi trate' means settle. In" Teferrlng n matter to this council for arbitration there Is no surrender of power In volved, and no need to hesitate. The time to hesitate Is before the reference Is made to the council. There will never be s reference to this council except when bitterness and strife arise. We are talking about names when it seems we are afraid of names." Rev. Dr. Hemphill said: "Supreme Judicatories shall take steps to carry action into effect." The amendment of Dr. He-.-rle to'AfV tide IV by the Insertion of the words "power as are" Instead of the words "authority as Is" with reference , to the. power exercised by the council. ' The hour for adjournment having arrived, on motion the discussion of the articles of the Plan of Federation was suspended until the afternoon ses sion. The time was extended to hear re murks from President J. R. Sanders, of Riddle University. He spoke Of his work for the colored race, and tvf con cluded; by extending to the conference an Invitation for the body to visit the school in- a body, and the conference accepted the Invitation. $ The conference adjourned at I p. m . Rev. J. E; Boggs leading the closing praver. AFTERNOON SESSION. After the devotional exercises at the afternoon session, the discission of the Article of the Plan of Agreement was resumed. Rev. Dr. W. J. McKay maftle a mo tion to amend Article XII which deals with the question of feuresentu tlon. The amendment suggested that inn reureaeniKiion in m counc Ji limited to one representative from i each church but this' amendment was lost. Rev. J. K. Hoggs made a motion that representalon be limited to thj unit rule on the call of three churches, and this motion waa-'Plktrled. The amendmeaKuf Article VI as offered by Rev.
