Baltimokk, May 33. - Dr. Woodrow, of the Southern Presbyterian ehuroh, who has been for two days defeuding his position on evolution, for which he was condemned by the Georgia syuod some time ago, concluded his defense yesterday in the general assembly of the church south. Rev. IVüliam Adams, of Georgia, replied to Dr. Woodrow, and defended the action of the synod in suspending Mr. Woodrow because of his evolution theory. He said that Woodrow's doctrine tended to unsettle the minds of the church people, and that the question should be disposed of by the convention now and forever. Judge Heiskei, of Memphis, followed in defense of Mr. Woodrow. The judge said that the question was one that could not rightly be judged by the convention. Although the gtandards of the church and the gospel of Christ always remaiued the same, the interpretations were often changed by time. At 10:30 p. m. the convention adjourned until to-day, when Dr. Strickler will close the argument, in opposition to Dr. Woodrow's theory.
