Dr. Sunderland, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, left the city this morning to attend the funeral of his broth- er, Mr. David Hunter Sunderland, who died at a late hour last evening at his home, in Freeport, Ill. Mr. Sunderland was one of the oldest and most respected resi- dents of Freeport. He was born in Shore- ham, Vt., the birthplace of Mr. Levi P. Morton, in 1822, in sight of the battlefield of Fort Ticonderoga. For some years he was the principal of an academy at Port Henry, N. ¥., but for the last half century he had made his home in Freeport, going there when the town was In its infancy and but a collection of a few small houses. He was at one time the mayor of Freeport, and also a member of the state senate of Illinois. His wife died some thirty years ago. The death of Mr. Sunderland, leaves his brother the only surviving member of the family. Although he never made Washington his home, Mr. Sunderland vis- ited here on many occasions, and had a nu- merous acquaintance among the members of the First Congregational Church. Withelm Tell Lodge. Wilhelm Tell Lodge, No. 5, recently or- ganized, was last night installed into the Independent Order Knights of Pythias by Deputy Commander Brakhagen. There were many visitors from other lodges pre: enc at the impressive exereises. Mr. Brak- hagen delivered to the new lodge the char- ter under which it exists and installed twenty-one members and the following offi- cers: Jacob Brugger, past commande George F. Fogle, commander; Frederick Wassmann, vice commander; Henry Wass- mann, treasurer; Paul Backschmid, secy'e- tary; Louis Schneider, sergeant-at-arms; Anton Fischer, outer guard; Albert Schwesig, inner guard, and Carl Moos, prelate. Assisting in the ceremonies were John Enders, acting as commander; Louis Sehenck, as’ vice commander; Wolfgang Buckdaeschel, as sergeant-at-arms; W. L. Elterich, as ‘prelate; Carl Obermeyer, as ex-commander; John Eller, as outer guard; Jebn hiller, as inner guard, and Paul Backschmid, as secretary. After the exer- cises refreshments were served. Cure for Dyspepsia The shopkeeper who cheats us by lying with re- gard to the quality of his goods, and t the butcher who gives us short weights, is a thief. However, thelr knavery touches nothing but our pocket book. There fs another widespread form of ation of a far more dangerous and s character. . efer to the false statements and worthless guarantees that frequently accompany medicines. ‘To guarantee a medicine to cure is to brand it as a quack prcduct. If we can guarantee to care dis- ease, then we can guarantee everlasting life, for in a large majority of cases people die of disease, the proportion of violent or accidental deaths being very small. ‘The rs have always been known as a most upright and honorable people, and thelr st in the manufacture of medicines has also been well known. It 1s, therefore, rot surprising to find them pursuing a very original and novel plan for the fn- troduction of thelr remedy for dyspepsia. ‘These God-fearing people, whose motto has al- ways been all things and hold fast to that which {s good,"” have put upon the market ten-cent sample bottles of tuelr product, or suflictent to give ita trial.

VESTRIES AT LAW St. Mari*s Ohoroh Quarrel Brought Into. Court, DE JURE VESTRY ASK AN TUOROTION Troubles of the ‘Parish Rehearsed in the Complaint. CHURCH DOORS . BOLTED The dissensions in St. Mark’s P. EH. parish have now been brought into court. Teday the so-called de jure vestry, through Messrs. H. E. Davis and William A. Meloy as solicitors, filed a bill in equity, ask- ing for an injunction against the de facto vestry and for other relief from the evils which they claim to have suffered because of the alleged illegal election and action of the de facto vestry. The bill filed today is a long document, and appended to it are @ number of exhibits bearing upon the election last Easter Monday, at which it was claimed the vestry now in possession of the church and declared by the rector to be the only legal vestry was illegally elected by means of votes of persons con- nected with a mission of St. Mark's, and who, it is claimed, were not worshipers in the parish church, and had no right to participate in a parish election. Recenily the Torbert or de jure vestry prepare. to take the troubles of the church into cour. by means of a friendly suit, but this proposition was declined by the vestry in possession of the church. There has been consideravle talk among the parish- ioners lately over an allegation that new belts have been placed on the outer doors and the dcors have been bolted against the de jure vestry. On one occasion, be- fore the bolts were put on, it is alleged, the doors were barricaded by piling benches against them from the inside. The treas- urer of the parish, Mr. Marlow, has con- tinued to refuse to pay the rector’s salary and other expenses of the church, because of the action of the de facto vestry in not turning over to him the moneys collected at the church. The expenses have, how- ever, it is understood, been paid by the de facto vestrymen. The suit filed today ts brought in the narie of John P. Torbert, Willidm T. Kent, Walter H. Marlow, Lexious A. Wood, Wil- Mam R. Hillyer, Henry J. Wylie, John R. Keech, Frederick R. Wallace, Robert J. Walker and Ira H. Johannes, clalming to be the wardens and the vestrymen of the parish, against Joseph B. Bennett, Samuel B. Roane, Charles B. Fonda, Edwin K. Lundy, Adam Gaddis, Richard J. Earn- shaw and William 8. Nicholson, whose election as vestrymen is disputed by the complainants. The bill recites at consid- erable length so much of the history of the parish as is necessary to establish the legal status of the parties to the sult, and goes into details concerning the more recent history which has led up to the litigation. One point on which the claim of the de jure vestry is based §s that the church is @ pew church rather than a free chure! Under the laws of the diocese, it is claim- ed, pow holders only are entitled to vote in a church not a free-church. ‘The bill avers that on or about April 1 188), by formal resolution the vestry adopt ed a plan by which heads of families or contributors were permitted to select their seats on pleiging a stated annual sum, and subsequently, Septémber 17, 189, pews lately added’ to the chic’ were assigned to persons who agreed t pay not less than 25 cents each Sunday per sitting. The bill also goes into considerable deta!l as to the books of the parish to maintain that the proper books jn which the names of legal voters were to be found were those kept under the direction of the vestry by the registrar. The Bexinning of the Trouble. It then gces on {to say: “Previous to the Easter Monday of 1894 the annual elections of wardens'and vestry- men in said parish have been uniformly without contest or evidence of personal feeling and with an attendance of only about eight or a dozen persons, but, a wholly unlooked for result of the action which the vestry had taken in the 1893, under a sense of their duty by of the canon law of the church, in to certain irregularities of service in the parish, which arose upon the death of their rector, the Rev. Mr. Steele, and the continuance of services in a mission sta- tion, which they had permitted in the north part of the parish, by an unauthorized lay reader, calling in clergymen to preach with- in the parish without consultation with them, the said vestry, contrary to the law end canon in such case made and provided, they found assembled at the said parish church at the parish meeting of Easter Monday, 1894, twenty-one persons asserting the right to vote thereat, several of said voters being even unknown to the then vestry, but, taken by surprise and not un- derstanding the situation, all were allowed to vote, and by a majority of three out of all the votes cast two persons never before identified with the vestry nor connected with said parish for the six months next preceding were declared elected th: . This declaration of result was acquiesced in and a contest forborne for the sake of peace and quiet in the parish, but it was My understood that at the election all qualified voters in the congreza- tion who sympathized with and indorsed the course pursued by the vestry of 1893 in regard to the mission station aforesaid would be on, hand to vote. A statement is made then regarding the tances attending the registra} preceding the recent Easter election. The register’s list, com} ga total of ninety- seven persons, was p the church as required. The bill th on to say: The Rector's List. “Shortly thereafter the rector of the par- ish posted or caused to be posted another and different list, containing one hundred and fifty-four names, with, caption as fol- 1 over his signature, to wit: The following is a true lst of names re- corded by me in a book kept for the parish prie tovand including. the: 14th: of March, 895." “And below such list was added the further statement following, to wit: “The position held by the rector is that the persons whose names are recorded above are sufficiently registered according to canon law; also that the names of all males twenty-one years of age and over appearing in the pew book kept for the parish by Mr, H. J. Wylie are sufficiently registered, provided the names were en- tered thirty days prior to April 14, 1895; also that all other males twenty-one years or over whose names do not appear either on this list or that posted by the registrar are sufficiently registered if they can show that their names appear in any of the par- ish books as memibers of the parish." “And on information and be your complainants aforesaid.aver and charge the fact to be that safd list.of one hundred and fifty-four names vontained not less than fifty-seven names enteted in his canonical register aforesaid’ by said rector without the knowledge of said registrar at some time subsequent ito the 15th day of March, 1 ‘hat it contained the names of many persons—how many your complainants are unable to ascertain without discovery— never baptized by. said rector, never bap- tized in said parish, and of whose baptisi he had no knowtedge except from }, many others who were never him for confirmation, and among the said fifty-seven names, were many also of per- sons never receiyed by aim to communion in said parish chtrch, Dut entered by him as baptized persons on the statements or- ally made to him in his visitations “That among the said fifty-seven names were many also not even entered by him as aforesaid, except in the index of said canonical register, as those whom-he had visited within the parish bounds during the four months ed said parish as its rector,’ originally ¥ ten down in a private memorandum book from statements received during his visits and afterward transferred to said ‘Parish Register.” offertory or alms basin of said church in a single package, addressed by one and the same hand to the treasurer of the parish, seventeen envelopes, each con' the sum of $2 as for the contribution of the individual therein named ‘to the support of the parish,’ ‘made by some Christian gentleman,’ as your complainants have been informed by said rector, to enable them to vote. “Not one of the persons so Indicated had been entered upon the enrollment book of the parish kept as aforesaid by the regis- trar; nor had any one of them owned, leased, chosen or been allotted any pew or part of any pew in said parish church; nevertheless, at the parish meeting on the next day, for election of vestrymen, here- imafter set forth, the votes of sald seven- teen were cast, received and counted in favor of the defendants herein. “Under these precedent circumstances governing the situation in law, and mofe or less shaping the minds and purposes of the participants, the parish meeting of St. Mark’s parish convened at the parish church on last Easter Monday for the an- nual election of vestrymen, and was valled to order at about 7:30 o’clock p.m. by the rector as presiding officer of the meeting. There were present in the churoh upward of 110 persons, and among them members of the vestry of the year 1894-1895 as par- ticipants in such meeting. Declared Elected. “Thereupon all persons present whose names appeared in the list presented by the rector as aforesaid and in his canonical ‘Parish Register,’ so made up as aforesaid, were by a majority of voices of such as- sembly ‘allowed to vote at said election, and on ‘count of é@he ballots so cast the said rector, as presiding officer, thereupon announced and declared Samuel B. Roane elected warden by a vote of 55 as against 51 votes cast for William T. Kent, and Joseph B. Bennet elected warden by a vote of 53 as against 49 for John P. Tor- bert. “In like manner on call of the names aforesaid a ballot was then taken to vote out four vestrymen, upon the count of which it was declared by said rector that S. B. Roane had received 87 votes, H. J. Wylie 52 votes, W. R. Hillyer 51 votes, B. K, -Lundy 49 votes, C. B. Fonda 48 votes, W. H. Marlow 48 votes and R. J. Earnshaw 45 votes, whereupon the said rector further declared that Messrs. Roane, Wylle, Hill- yer and Lundy had been voted out. “A ballot was then taken in like manner as before, to vote in four new vestrymen, upon the count of which it was stated that besides some scattering votes not affecting the result, Ira H. Johannez had received John R. Keech, 87 votes; R. J. votes; Frederick R. Wallace, 4+ votes; LE. K. Lundy, 49 votes; W. S. Nichol- son, 51 votes; A. H. Gaddis, 52 votes; W. R. Hillyer, 54 votes. Whereupon the rector declared that Messrs. Hillyer, Gaddis, Nicholson and Lundy had been elected, and thereupon forthwith the said parish meeting was declared adjourned. “But your complainants, on information and belief, declare and aver that of the votes of the qualified and legal voters, to wit, of the votes cast at sald parish meet- ing by those who had a right of suffrage in the election of vestrymen or of wardens for such parish, they severally received a clear majority, and were then and there legally elected, that is to say, your com- plainants, John P. Torbert and William T. Kent, were so elected to be the wardens; your complainants, John R. Keech, Fred- er.ck R. Wallace, Robert J. Walker and Ira H. Johannes, were elected to be westry- men; and that also by a clear majority of the like votes Samuel B. Roane, Edwin K. Lundy, Charles B. Fonda and Richard J. Earnshaw, members of the old vestry, yoted out, leaving your complainant: said Walter H. Marlow, William R. Hill- yer, Henry J. Wylie and Lexious A. Wood, members of said vestry holding over.’ The bill then makes a somewhat minute analysis of the vote to show on what is based the claim that the de jure vestry- men were legally elected. It recites the fact that the complainants, April 24, last, had met to subscribe to the required oath and organize a3 a vestry, electing William H. Marlow as treasurer and John P. Tor- bert as register, and that they have met regularly since then for the purpose of transacting the business of the parish. Said to Be a Methodist. In reference to the defendant, William 8. Nicholson, the bill says: “Moreover, as your complainants are in- formed, and verily believing, charge the said William S. Nicholson was not on Eas- ter Monday last, nor ever before, legally qualified to vote in said St. Mark's parish, nor competent in law to be a vestryman of said parish, nor then, or ever before a member of the Protestant Episcopal Church, but on the contrary, at the ne of the ‘election in question, he was con- nected with Waugh Chapel (Methodist), in this city, as a member and officer, which fact was publicly well known at the time of the election in question, and by reason whereof all the votes then cast for said Nicholson were void; and had all votes in other respects been valid, and cast by your complainant, would still have man, “The complainants assert that wholly without right or authority the said de- ferdants (a) have asserted that they con- stitute the vestry of St. Mark’s parish afcresaid; (b) they have proceeded to de- clare one of their number, viz., the said C. B. Fonda, registrar of said parish; (c) they have also declared your complainants, Walter H. Marlow, Wiillam R. Hillyer and Lexious A. Wood, no longer members of the vestry of said parish, and their offices vacated solely because they have declined to recognize the validity of notices of spe- cial meetings sent them by the said Fonda istrar of the parish; (d) they have ted the said Fonda ‘to receive from the rector the moneys paid in by the mem- bers of the cong ion for the expenses ef the parish, which moneys by long stan ing rule and order of the vestry, to wit, the by-law aforesaid, have been, and now should be, handed over to your complain- ant, Marlow, as treasurer, and said Fonda of the parish, a s amount, but how much your complainants do not know and cannot as- certain without discovery and accountin, and he holds such money, either himself solely or with one of his confederate de- fer dants in direct violation of, and denying yeur complainant's right to have, receive and dispose of all such moneys, and the said Fonda and his codefendants propose and declare their purpose to continue to take, withhold and dispose of all such moneys. he said defendants have also recently first barricaded and then put bolts and other new fastenings upon the doors of the perish church aforesaid, and taken the keys of said church and other property fiom the former and customary custodian thereof, and thus prevented your com- plainants from entering therein and from exercising their legal right and duty to- erter upon, supervise, care for and control the property of sald parish.” A Restraining Order Asked. ~ They ask that the defendants be required to answer the averments of the bill, and that during the pendency of the suit they be restrained from— First.
