Philadelphia, Dec. 30.—“Can a bishop, or, ought a bishop, write de- famatory letters in secret in Lo injure any member of the mirisiry? This is the question which will be de- cided at the meeting of the board of inquiry in the case of Irvine vs. Tal- bot,” said the Rev. Ingram N. W. Irvine, the plaintiff in the celeb:ated case, in discussing the charges which have been made against him. “My reinstatement,” continued Iryine, “is of secondary couside ‘when contrasted with the above query. Of course I wish to have this unjust depositon removed, but I wish entirely without malice, to be vins cated in the sight of God and friends. In discussing the motive of Bishop Talbot’s letter Dr. Irvine said that it was because he had persistently re- fused to serve communion to Mis. Emma D. Elliott of Huntingdon, Pa., who is divorced, against the wishes of Bishop Talbot. Dr. Irvine insists that he followed the canons of the church in the position taken in the matter. Referring to the letter which Bishop Talbot is said to have written Dr. Upjohn, in which the former- termed Dr. Irvine a “plausible romancer,” had charged that he was deposed for gross immorality and “that for twenty out of' thirty years of his service in the min- istry he was under ecclesiastical discipline,” Dr. Irvine said that Bishop Talbot has placed himself in a most Awkward position. “That letter to Dr. Upjohn was un- warranted and cruel,” said Dr. Irvine, since it was first of all a gross subter- fuge. It was used secretly as a weapon against me to deprive me of all sym- pathy, respect and even maintenance.” ir. IN PITIFUL CONDITION. Northern Cheyenne Indians Said to Be Starving.
