CHICAGO, April 14.-At regular
meeting of the presbytery, formal
charges of heresy were preferred
against Professor David Swing, pastor
of the fourth Presbyterian church of
this city and one of the editors of the
Alliance. The charges are very
voluminous, twenty-five different
specifications being included in one
article alone. They were referred to u
committee for consideration and are to
be presented to Professor Swing, ii
found to contain sufficient grounds
upon which to base a case. 1t is
thought the case will come up for trial
before this meeting of the presbytery.
1t will be sharply contested and the
probability is that it will be carried to
n higher ecclesiastical court. The case
excites great interest i'll clerical circles
on account of the high standing, not
only of the accused, but also of his cleri-
cal brethren who have been most
prominent in bringing the case before
the tribunals of the church.

About one O'Clock yesterday, when the throng OF
pedestrians was at It's greatest density, there &C.
CURED another OF those police 0utrages which
have recently startled the community. Michael
Fisher, an innocent German was this time the
victim. He was driving truck and was turning
from Broadway into fulton street at the time,
when lie was accosted by Oficer Lindsey, OF the
Broadway squad. Oficer Lindsey ordered the
driver OF the truck TO get on the other
side of the street. The driver answered
that it was impossible and that there were
too many stages in the way, The officer insisted
and took hold OF the horses by the bride reins.
MIcnael demonstrated and asked the officer to 'let

but 1t was Of no avail, the violent

Tombs Ponce Court. When Fisher was brought
before Judge Bixby his lace was covered with
blood. 1t streamed coplously RON three different

sary clubbing. Onicer Lindsey with the utmost
effrontery, placed himself before his Honor, Judge

duct against the truck driver, Michael Fisher.
Judge Blxby looked at the defendant for some
time and asked the particulars OF the disorderly
conduct and also OF the consequent clubbing and
