CRUMMELL DE- NOUNCES A _ LIBERTINE. STATEMENT. TO THE CONGREGATION OF ST. LUKE'S CHURCH, WASHINGTON, D. C. SUNDAY MORNING, 17TH SEPT. 1893. BY ALEX. CRUMMELL RECTOR. Tuis Statement Was Made After The Sermon And Benediction, Te Con -re- gation Remaining Beh nd To Hear It. “Although I have been your rector now over twenty years,you will all bear me witness that neve, durng this whol period, have 1, under any cir- cumstances, brought any matters of a pesonal nature into this churea or pul- pit. We have had trying times here, now and then; bat I have always re- frained from put'ing any of my trials or troubles befo e you. But an eveut occurred yesterday which I think ought not to be passed over, without calling the attention of the go d people of th s cure" to it. As [sat in my study yesie day mor- nivg [saw a buggy deve up to the door, and : person alight from it. The bell rang,and soon I was summoned tothe rom below. On entering the room I was met by a person who said he ca.etosee me on imp rta t bus ness On being s ated he * began in this man- ner, aud with these words: ‘*V:. Crum- mell, I have come here to infirm yeu that there are ene hundred of us who have concluded that we will no longer worship in St. Ma y’s Chapel, nor in St. Luke’s church. We intend to com- mence a new work somewhere on Fifteenth Street, between M Street and the boundary, and not far from st. Luke’s church. Ihave just come from the richest man in Washington and twoof the leading clergymen of this city. I have come to imform you about it, so ihat you cannet say we have done this without your knowledge.” Iimmediately replied: ‘Well, this certainly is astonishing; what have | to do with your coming out of St. Luke’s chapel, or the migration, of which you now inform me, from my church. I have nothing to do with St. Mary’s chapel, nor with your purpose to start a new church.” His immediate reply was as follows: “Oh, yes, you have a great deal to do with it. Dr. Crummell, the whole thing isin your hands. You have been here many years and you know your are a failure. Now, if you will resign from this church, all this movement will come toun end. Yvu can settle the whole difficulty. Ithink you must know that the Bishop of the Diocese will look after you. 1 have uo doubt whaiever that Bishop Paret wit] pro- vide some other work for you todo, and you will be taken care of. But if yon don’t we shall take this step.” Here I again interrupted him and said: ‘* Well, this is indeed a wonderfu thing! You are neither the Archbishop ot Amrica nor the Bishop of this Di- ocese, hor the most eminent layman in this neighborhood; aud yet you have come here tomy house tu give ‘notice to quit;’and you warn me if 1 dont you Willstuzrt a new church near st. Luke’s.”’ Here he interurpved with the words: “Oh, I don’t mean to offend you by what] have said.”” And then, with What provoked a smile from me, he ve- gan again, with tne most ludicrous ges- uculauionus and gyrations of lis body, botb hands flying above my head, his alconolic breath in ny face: *-Oh, 1 waut you tv understand that I have the great- es. respeci for your gray haus, for you talents, and your character. 1 only came to let you know what we intend to do, if you won’t take the step 1 have mentioned It is all in,your own hands, You ean easily settle this whole mat- ter. If you will only resign you ma: be sure it will be the very Lest thing.’ “Look here, sir,” Was my answer “Now L have heard enough from you. This conversation must svop right here.” And Larose at once to my feet and shewed him the door. On ieaving the room ne turned and said to me: “Well Dr. Crumuneil, you cau’t say that we have’nt told you tuliy what we in tend to do.” Who do you think was the Thing who dared thus to come in my house, and insult and threaten me in this manner? Why, a creature notorious tor his licent.ousness from his boyhood, A Leper, who got in peril once for the ruin ofa wouan, and shortly after- wards was publicly beaten for the rain ofanother. A fellow, once snatched from a house of infamy, aud with his victim brought before a city magis- trate. Noted at all times for uis drunh- en bouts; famous for his filtuy amours and his gross blasphemies in the streets of Washington. And this demoralized and broken down thing flaunts the @storious false- hood in my face that you, the quiet, loyal peopie of my churchare golug lo follow him into a new church organiza- tion, if [do not leave my post. A man who decent people in this city woc,t associate with. He, the depraved Mo- ses to lead the saints of God in this city, into the worship of God, and into the | ways of holiness. Why, my friends, we who call our- selves diciples of Christ, never think of rushing into soloous and gambling | halls, and houses of infamy to become | the chiefstherein. But how do you acount forthe fact, that demoralized and licentious men are so anxious to become headmen in our churches, the first officers in the house of God. Here is a wretched and disorganized creature, full of zeal to get hold of St. Luke’s church, and to bs _» ‘‘big man in it. And thrusts himself into my house, and gives me “notice to quit,” and warns me of the consequences if I don’t,obey him. And all because he wants this church for himself and his boon companions. Well, we will wait and see who ‘‘the rich man” is who is going to bolster up this precious charac- ter, and who the ‘two leading clerzy- men” who are his allies. THE SITUATION IN HA WALL.

THE HOUSE VOTES TO REHEAL THE SHERMAN LAW. Every Compromise Defected—A Decisive Majority for the Repealers—The Vinal Vote 240 Ayes to 210 Nays—Probable Action of the Senate. The tinal yoting upon the silver re- peal question began sharply at noon’ on Monday. ‘the yotes were taken first on the different ratio, 16 to Bee to 1, 18 to 1, 19 to 1 and 20 to 1, as amendments to the Wilson repeal bill. Then upon substituting the Bland- Allison limited silver coinage act for the Sherman silver purchasing act. Then, when all these propositions were rejected, the vote was on the adoption of the Wilson bill, without amendment, for the unconditional repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act, requiring the monthly purchase by the United States of 4,500,000 ounces. of fine silver. : The votes were as follows: For ratio of 16 to 1, 123 yeas, 225 nays; a ratio of 17 to 1, 100 yeas, 240 nz for a ratio of 17 to 1, 102 yeas, n 237 nays; for a ratio of 20 to’l, y 121, nays 222; for the proposition to re- enact the Bland-Allison limited silver coinage act, yeas 136, nays 213. All the amendments being rejected, | the vote was then taken upon the di rect issue of repealing silver pw by the Treasury, with this Yeas 240, nays 110. Of the 240 vot cast for the bill 140 were cast b: ocrats and 100 by Republicans. A; the bill 74 votes were cast by Demo: ! crats, 25 by Republicans and 11 by Populists. The Wilson bill, as adopt- ed, simply puts a stop to the purchas of new silver by the Treasury. It does not demonitize silver or in ar way; Tepudiate the $700,000,000 in silver money now in the Treasury or in cir- culation. The bill is considered to be a preliminary step to an effort by the United States Government to bring about an international agreement for Q proper ratio between gold and silver. ay NATIONAL CAPITAL NOTES. The Government paid all employees in ras ees their August salary in gold. Senator Colquitt is daily wheeled in and out of the Senaie in an invalid’s chair. ; The report continues to prevail that ‘Assistant Secretary of State Quincy will shortly resign. Ex-Congressman Proctor M. Knott | has been offered the mission at Hawaii, ! but hesitates to accept it. The House has put in its time since } last week discussing the new rule: which will be adopted during the pre ent week. Secretary Carlisle has ordered that the United States Mints at Philadel- phia and San Francisco be fully ; manned and the full capacity of both mints be utilized in coining gold bul- lion. President Cleveland and Secretary ! Lamont occupied a box at the National Theatre Saturday evening. They ap- parently enjoyed the petformance of | Frohman’s comedians in the new play, | “The Other Man.” President Cleveland’s return to ; Washington in vigorous health sets at | rest sensational reports as to his con- | dition. He has entirely recovered from the effects of the operation some time since for removing decayed teeth a portion of diseased bone in connection therewith. Mr. HEckels, the Comptroller of the Currency, speaks very hopefully of the financial situation. He would not pre dict how long it would be before mat- ters had resumed their normal condi- tion, but the bottom had been reached, as far as the banks were concerned, and financial affairs were on the up grade. Senator Voorhees, Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, stated that he was in favor of a liberal allowance of time for debate of the silver repeal bill, but that when it was evident dis- cussion was indulged merely to con- sume time he should insist upon a vote. The Treasury Department Saturday resumed the payment over its counter ef paper mone For the past ten days s been paid for Treasury checks. This ha duced the gold and also allowed the ~isury to secure a stock of paper money, believed to be sufficient, at least, for present needs. The mer of Patents has rendered a decision that a State’s trade mark cannot be lawfully registered as that of a mercantile corporation pos- sessed of full powers, and consequently tie State of South Carolina cannot re- ceive authority to pursue, or be pro- tected in pursuing, the liquor traffic in the country at large. It can be stated on adequate author- ity, and without any impropriety, that the domestic event in Mr. Cleveland’s family which was expected to occur at Euzzard’s Bay in August, is now ex- | pected to occur in the White House about the middle of September, where Mrs. Cleveland will resume her resi- dence on her return to Washington.

Discovery of New Oil Wells. The discovery of an oil well at Ak- ron, O., has caused much excitement in that vicinity, and many leases are be- ing made of territory for miles around the strike. The oil tests 28 and 29 de- grees specific gravity, and is of a much finer grade than Lima oil. It is said to equal the famous quality found in the neighborhood of Franklin, Pa.

Mzny buildings were demolished, and ship- ; ping in the harbor suffered great loss The town of Kernersville, in Forsyth County, N. C., was struck by the ey- clone and 100 houses were blown down. Four bodies had at last accounts been taken from the ruins, and at least titty persons were more or less injured. Kernersville is eighteen miles west of Grvensborough, on the Northwestcrn North Carolina Railroad, and has a j; population of about 700. Every house in the town was either wholly or part- ly demolished. Rumors of many other disasters in small towns from Georgia to Virginia have been received. Details of loss of life and destruction of property are also received from Brunswick, Ga. and pints further south along the coast. : Home Rule will Prevail. The final stage of the Home Rule bill, set for August 30, has led to the most extensive preparations by both Liberals and Tories. Mr. Gladstone is expected to close the debate by an- The bill will be passed, and will go to the House of ; Lords on Monday, September 4. Mr. Gladstone has made temporary peace with the Scotchmen who were claiming his attention for their de ! mands before they went further with thrown “New- him in Irish home rule. He has a sop to the Radicals, with the | castle programme,” by promising that the next parliamentary session shall be devoted exclusively to British af- fairs. He has also used the soft an- swer to turn away the wrath of the Welshmen in the matter of church dis- establishment. Troubles Over Pensions. There is serious trouble brewing be- tween Elijah A. Morse, member of Congress from the Twelfth Massachu- setts District, and William Lochren, of Minresota, Commissioner of Pensions. Mr. Morse has informed Mr. Lochren that he expects him immediately to or- der a review and re-examination of a particular pension case; “otherwise,” he says, “I shall call the attention of Congress and the country to this ease at the first opportunity.” Mr. Lochren has replied: “I shall have to submit to this dire alternative, for I assure you I will not order a review or re-examl- nation of the case.” Mr. Lochren fur- ther suggests that Mr. Morse is an ill- informed “demagogue” with “a capa- city for willful and malignant lying,” and afflicted further with a develop- ment of “sordid meanness,” which im- pels him to violate a law of Congress by wrongfully using a Government enalty envelope to convey a “silly bel’ and thereby “swindle his Gov- ernment out of the sum of two cents.” Di fi Walking Around Our Boundary. Chris. Miller, a Chicago newspaper man, who is walking around the boun dary line of the United States, report ed in St. Paul Tuesday. He has so far covered 5,900 miles. He went from New Orleans to Spokane. Now he hav left for Chicago to follow the shore line to the Atlantic, and thence to New Orleans. He trusts to the notoriety of the feat and pickings from iectur2s en- livened with boxing to keep up his pocket-money. He left New Orleans November 13, 1992, and has two and one-half years from thet time to win the wager. He has lost thirty pounds in weight. The Cholera in Hungary. The cholera is slowly but steadily spreading in the great ceutres of popu- lation in Galicia and Hungary, where it is difficult to eradicate it. A dis pateh from Trivoli says several cases of Asiatic cholera have been found among the Mecea pilgrims and the patients have been taken to the hospi- tal. Double guards surround the hos pital. Most of the pilgrims who are stricken are in a very critical condition
