C., May 7.?This afternoon's session of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian synod was characterized by the sharpest debate ever held on the floor of the body, in the opinion of many of the leading mem bers of the syriod, the controversy i finally reaching such a stage that the j Rev. E. P. Pressly, president of Erskine Theological Seminary, defert entially and reverently declined to lead in prayer, when requested to dot so as the question was about to be I put to vote. The whole thing was; about the disposition of the $250,000 ]' surplus raised in the forward move-' ment campaign. It was "an embar-j rassment of riches," as one member ! put it. Yesterday the synod adopted a res-! olution offered by Dr. G. R. White, j reported in this correspondence, to; the effect that every contributor j ' shall have the right to designate for; what purpose his gift should be used j and that from the extra surplus left! the causes of church extensibn and i home mission should each receive the j sum of $75,000. After tfiinking the ! matter over during the night the members of the synod came up to-! day ail crossed in Doay ana mma as; to what to do. After an entire after- j noon debate the synod reversed the action of yesterday, went against Dr.; White's recommendation and voted to! leave the whole thin? in the hands of; the original forward movement cam-i paign committee. It was during the i two hour debate preceding this vote that the incident, above referred to, i ; took place. It was on account of the ; intense feeling on both sides the j proposition that Dr. Pressly refused j to lead in prayer before the question \ was put. r / ' P__.

Washington, May 6.?After a series of informal conferences, Democratic and Republican members, of the house agreed today there was no prospect of enactment of soldier relief legislation before the forthcoming recess for the political conventions. Representative Knutson of Minnesota, the Republican whip, said that| many members felt that the whole question should go over until after the November election so as to avoid the possible injection of partisanship in its consideration. Representative Garner of Texas, Democratic whip and member of the ways and means committee which conducted extensive hearings on relief legislation, declared sentiment was "rapidly changing" and that a majority of the Democratic members of the committee were "willing to let the bill continue to sleep in committee." Much of the change in sentiment, wop f a 1 qVotd lUClliUCU ;aiu, noo uub w number of protests against increasing the tax burden and its possible effect on the cost of living.

PROFITEER KILLS SELF. i Had Been Placed Under Arrest By Federal Authorities. I The New York World of April >7, I tells the following sad story, giving the facts in detail : Joseph Nichthauser, owner of one j of the largest haberdashery shops in I Brooklyn, who was arrested Saturday | charged with profiteering, in a fit of j despondency shot himself through the right temple early yesterday morning 1 in his home, No. 78 Prospect Park, I West Brooklyn, and died instantly.| This simple entry in the book of the I Medical Examiner in Brooklyn dej scribes the suicide: !

United States Commissioner McCabe held him in $2,000 bail for a hearng on April 21. After his release on bail Nitchthau-; ser went to his apartment in the Bryn Mawr, fronting on Prospect Park. He was morose and his wife and three children puzzled over the reason until one of the children rush-, ed in with an evening newspaper tell-, ing the story of Nichthauser's arrest. Nic-hthauser scarcely touched his dinner, and a gloom settled over the household. Nichthauser remained up until a late hour, smoking moodily.: His wife tried vainly to comfort him.'
