The Trouble in the Culpeper Church— Committees Appe' ited and Business Transacted This Morning. Rev. Mr. Carrington, pastor of the South- ern Presbyterian Church at Culpeper, Va., Was removed from his pastorate at today's session of the Chesapeake presbytery, in Central Presbyterian Church, corner of 2d and I streets northwest. The dissolution of the pastoral relation between a pastor and his congregation, without a request to that effect being made by one or the other, is said to be without Precedent in the history of the Chesapeake presbytery, and is further stated to be an almost unheard of occurrence among Pres- byterizas in the United States, This disposition of the case was not reach- ed until after a full discussion of the ques- tion by nearly all present, and many ex- pressions of regret were made that the course adopted had to be pursued. In the course of the speaking it was brought out that Mr. Carrington became pastor of the Culpeper Church in 18s4, as the successor of Rev. Mr. Moxley, much beloved by most of the membership. Mr. Moxley in that year felt, however, that he ought to give up the pastorate for per- sonal reasons and did so. Soon after Mr. Carrington took charge troubles in the church began, his salary Was not paid up, and in ISSS had gotten so much in arrears that the influence of the presbytery was invoked, in consequence of Which a settlement in full to that date was made with the pastor. This action of Mr. Carrington was not pleasing to many of the meibers, and it Was said that there are but six who are willing to longer listen to Mr. Carrington’s ministrations, while the pastor's salary is now in rs . Several members of the presbytery urged thai the duty of the presbytery was to dissolve the pastoral ve- lations existing between Mr. Carri igton and the church, ause the invere r religion in the Culpeper C In his own defense, Mr. Carrin that he was willing to concede that it would be best for the interests of the church of which he was pastor that he should give up its charge, and he was will- ing to resigr his pastorate provided the presbytery would consent to his placing a mortgage for $550, the amount due him, on the church and manse. He kne of probably a dozen persons who would gladly unite with the church provided the financial questions at present involved can be adjusted at an early date, and this he Was sure, he said, could be accomplished if the mortgage referred to was executed. The presbytery did not agree with Mr. Carrington on the subjcct and took the ac- ton already stated. Previous to the case of Mr. Carrington coming before the body narratives of th state of religion were read from all tl churches and Elder G. D. Gray was en- rolled as a member. ‘The present meeting of the presbytery be- Ben yesterday afternoon. There was a | kood attendance of members. Preston was elected moderator and Elde K.

Remaining Suger Trust Witnesses Must Stand Trial. Judge Cole declined today to rrant a continuance of the ar trust cases until after the U Supreme Court has disposed of the appeal of Mr. Elverton R. Chapman, conviction as a contumacious witnes affirmed by the Court of Appeals several days ago. That court allowed Mr. Chapman a writ of error to the Supreme Court, and counsel for the remaining alleged con witnesses, Messrs. Shriver, Edwards, cartney, Havemeyer, Searles and Edward desired that the remaining cases be post- poned until after the question raised by Mr. Chapman's case should be dispos by the Supreme Court. In disposing of the matter today Judge Cole remarked that as the Court cf Ap- peals has sustained the law w which the cases were brought he could not well ignore that fact, and it was quite proper that the remaining cases should not be continued to await the action of the Su- preme Court in the Chapman case. summer he had refused to postpone ca: under the Edmunds act, and only yesterday had declined to continue the untried oleo- margarine cases. He therefore thought that the district attorney should be al- lowed to call the remaining cases some i xt month. s Attorney Birney then expected to first try the case Macartney, end the other ci diately thereafter. Mr. Nathaniel Wilson, assoctaied with ex-Senator Edmunds in the cases, stated he would confer with him before Monday next, when he thought some day next month could be agreed upon. a ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS, said he inst Mr. ‘Ss imme- Matters of Local Interest From Down the River, Yesterday afternoon there was consider- able excitement caused by a personal alter- cation at the corner of St. Asaph and King streets between Postmaster Carlin and Wm. G. Simpson, in which Mr. Simpson is said to have struck Mr. Carlin. The atfair grew out of a dispute over the building of Mr. Carlin’s house, on Washington street. A warrant for Mr. Simpson was the outcome of the affair, and last night the mayor was prepared to try the case. Mr. Carlin failed to appear, however, and the charge was dis- missed. The Cuban Vessel.

Major, housebreaking; William Harris, do.; James Murphy, do.; Samuel Spriggs, adul- tery; William Buckner, assault with intent to kill; John Newton, second offense of petit larceny. The charge of larceny against Laura Johnson and George Baum was ignored. The indicted parties pleaded not guilty, with the exception of Murphy, who was given ten years in the penitentiary. oes Society of the War of 1812.
