'.. -r , ' - , Opinions as ! to '.the ultimate "eff ect of the Harriman dissolution : decree on the properties involved? varied widely and there were feverish fluctuations in'" the securities of theserpads. Early firmness was ' succeeded by pronounced weakness in Southern . Pacific and increased heavi ness in the other securities affected. Professional - operators , took -. the wview that "separation of Union Pacific from Southern Pacific would hinder the de velopment and operation of the latter road and they sold that stock heavily until it ruled 3 points under yesterday's close. ; Conspicuous strength was - shown by Reading. The general movement of prices was downward. Steel fell feelow its recent 'low level. Money rates were maintained at . high . figures : with- re newals at 9 per cent ' Bonds irregular. ; Liquidation of a large amount of Can depressed It 3 points and hampered re coveries, in ..other quarters where the pressure was .abating. .

Weak ness in Berlin,, however,: caused a droop ing tendency late in the day. .American securities were quiet and steady during the ! forenoon. Prices advanced from to VA ocer parity, under the lead of Union Pacific. The dissolution of the Harriman merger had little effect until .the afternoon, when Wall street offered Southern Pacific down 2 points or more and the rest of the list eased oft In sym pathy.

Seal BAPTISTS DISCUSS VORLDLY AFFAIRS Pastors' Conference Passes Re solutions Against Forms :0I Ainusemsnt - : BY T. W. CHAMBLISS. - GOLDSBORO, Dec 3,The feature of : this, morning's session of the pas tors', conference of the North Caro lina Baptist State Convention was the consideration xf the relation of the churches to worldly amusements. This discussion was opened by,-Rev. A. A. McClelland of Maxton and his ad dress is accepted as one of the sanest expression's - of the' question and the solution- ever -brought before a re ligious body. Discussion followed the address and a committee was ap pointed -to draft resolutions that would - express the. sentiment. ., of the address. After stating' that he be lieved that worldly amusements, such as dancing and card - parties- and for prizes were harmful to the individual Christian life as well as the. church progress, , Mr. McClelland stated that there was but little difference between the bridge whist parry and , the negro crap game, but" that it must be re membered that the women .were not the .only gamblers and that the men in , the church and who , were dealing in . futures and drinking moderately were equally as hurtful if not more SO. " " y ' ; - As a Solution to the problem con fronting the Church Mr. McClelland suggested that the time to deal with the amusement question , was before it became worldly. It was proper to provide amusement for the Christian people that - would not . result in in jury, to the cause. lie said that pro hibition was not the remedy. The Baptist denomination had lost valu able material because of hot headed pastors . and . deacons who . would not take, the time and patience to . prop erly train and teach their people. He and reward of consistent religious ser vice , and thus . lead .their people . from hurtful practices. . . - ..'.-.. Dr. W, C. Tyree of High Point de livered ; a . most- helpful . address on the . "Pastor and His Library." . He suggested .,that the purpose . of the library was that the pastor might be better , prepared., to Jteach . his people and he urged the study of books and With . it ; the study 6 . the , interests of the people. , Rev. R, W. Cau thorn of Hender8onyill'e "was ;,the speaker' on the theme, ."The . Pastor and His Own Spiritual Culture." Mr. Cauthorn was delightfully helpful, with his address and urged the pastors to be more particular concerning their individual spiritual life. .".7.. v v :The feature' of ' the . afternoon '.ses sion will be the address by Rev. W. J. McGlothin of the Southern Baptist Theological' Seminary . Louisville, Ky. There is : considerable discussion among, the pastors who are attending the conference, concerning tne . "Bar rett Resolution." This resolution will suggest the proper action by the Convention , necessary, to . so amend the - charters of the two .'colleges, Wake Forest and Meredith, and also the Thomasville Orphanage, so that the Baptist State Convention would have actual legal control of ' those institutions.' Many Baptists of the State have only recently learned tht those institutions were controlled Tsy self-perpetuating boards of trustees and the proposition emnraced in the resolution to be presented to the Convention by Rev. W C. Barrett pastor of the First Baptist Church at Gastonia, opens up a question of large Interest . It-is apparent from conversation with the arriving delegates that there will be a divergence of opinion when the resolution is offered. It is reasonably certain that tne presidents of the colleges and those close to them will oppose any change in the present system. Others seem to be wiling to abide by their wishes. One layman said this morning that after consideration f he was determined to support the Barrett resolution for the reason that while the present system was perfectly safe at this me it was not good business policy to spend large sums of money on institution with a possibility of a future loss to the denomination. ' He cited Instances of other institutions Having passed entirely from ' denominational con trol because of selt-perpetuating boards of management . Everything is ready for the open- ling session of, the convention tonight and t the prospect is for. a large at tendance.J The arrangements for the entertainment of the Convention are superb and the Goldsboro people, re gardless . of denominational interest have thwn open their homes to the Baptists, s-- ? .-'. 1 , , . ,. .,' V; CLUB OPFICERS FAVOR REMOVAL ' " continued from page 1 '- proposition to. be definitely submitted at the alrectpra'.meetlng this after noon r will he complete in; its relation to the club r property ,-it may not em brace hat j?art known as Club Acres, although Mr. Stephens and associates have given assurance that the, owner of; Club Aeries would.
