THE CASE OF DIR. MOSS.
He Is Found Guilty of IndiscretiOn, and Rec
Ommended for Pardon on Confession.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Dec. 20-The following
has just been procured
ITO the Bloomington Baptist Church,
''Dear Brethren-The council called by you to
hear and investigate certain charges preferred
against Lemuel Moss, one of your members, do
respectfully submit the following: after careful
and protracted investigation through five ses-
sions of more than three hours each, in which
are evidence offered by the church, including
the sworn statements of six students of the uni
versity; also, the statements and confessions of
the accused, were considered. We fnd
"First-That there is neither charge nor evi-
dence of adultery the part of the accused
"Second-That the accused has been guilty of
such intimacy with the lady as involved moral
wrong, in that he often visited her alone in her
recitation room, and at times while there kissed
and caressed her, she being frequently seated on
his lap, and that, too, after being admonished.
''Third-The accused, having confessed the
above before the council, and having evinced
deep sorrow therefor, we recommend that the
church give to him an early opportunity to make
a confession to it, and that when such confession
shall have been made in humble penitence he
be restored to your Christian confidence"
This paper is signed by the secretary of the
council.
Dr. Moss who was allowed to remain through
out the proceedings. defended himself and made
a long speech, in which he expressed himself op-
posed to admitting the testimony of the students
on the ground that a rule of the church provided
that in such cases only the testimony of mem
bers of the church in good standing could be
given. After long discussion it was decided
that his objection was we'll taken, and the stu
dents were not allowed to testify Afidavits
had previously been sworn out by the students
before W. P. Rogers, an attorney, and were
turned over to Mr.. Day. DR.. Moss also object
ed to these being presented, and they were
passed. The affdavits are made by J. 2. A.

bank safe, which usually holds from fifty to sew
enty-fve thousand dollars in greenbacks, and
which pays out from ten to eleven thousand dol
lars every day. During the year it contains
about three million dollars, and many of

are concerned. 1t deals with no others.
congressman can check on It, and it will cash
his drafts aud receive his deposits His salary
is due him in monthly payments, and he cannot
overdraw. Every month $4l6,66 is put to his
credit here and this is pretty rapidly checked
out. Some members check their money out as
fast as it comes in. Others take it in five
dollar bills, and bill at time. Some draw
but little, and instances have been OF congress-
men taking nothing until the close of the year.
None, so far, have refused to take theirssaaries.
If congressman dies his salary stops at his
DEATH but it is now the custom of Congress to
vote his widow years extra pay. AS to Snile-
age, each congressman gets forty cents a mile
each session for the distance from his home to
the Capital, and this pay ranges all the way
from $3.50 to $1,000, according to the
distance Mr.. Oury, the Territorial
delegate from Arizona, gets $1,000
year mileage in addition to his salary. When
it is remembered that this is enough to pay one
passage around the world and that you can go
from New York to San Francisco for less than
eeighth of it, it seems good deal Congress
men are also allowed $l25 year for stationery.
The Sergeant-atArms Bank also attends to this.
Most of the members do not use all of this, and
they are entitled to draw out the bal
ance. This bank must keep their accounts
of this as of other things. 1t does so carefully.

WASHINGTON, Dee. 20.-"Who will be th
leader of the Republicans in the next HouseP
is the question occupying the attention of many
members of tho party at present Mr.. Keifer,
who has assumed the duties of that position for
the past year, is not member Of the next
Congress- so that there is no chance for his Sc
curing the complimentary nomination. If Mr.
Hiscock should succeed in his senatorial
schemes he will of course be out of
the way. Governor Long has great
many friends and has rapidly won his way to
the front Had the Republicans secured a
majority in the Forty-ninth Congress he would
undoubtedly have been a formidable candidate
for the speakership. AS it is, there are many
indications that he will be put forward for the
compliment of the caucus nomination. Few
men in Congress have so rapidly demonstrated
their abilities as legislators. Usually the new
member is kept in the background during his
first term, and it is only after repeated re-elec
tions that his name is known outside Of his own
district Governor Long, on the other hand,
had not filled his seat month before his mettle
was shown. He has constantly increased in
popularity, and it is doubtful if there is another
Republican in the House so generally well liked,
not only by his party associates but by his poiti-
cal opponents as well.

to have taken his defeat pretty hard, for he has
not appeared on the floor this session. Horr, Of
Michigan, was also defeated, but it is said that
his successor is even more witty than the rotund
joker from Saginaw. Calamity Weller of Iowa,
has been reegated in the list of used-up states
men, and his country notions of finance
will no longer obtrude themselves in the House.
Richelieu Robinson's autobiography has filed half

but ''Richelieu"will leave us on the 4th of March,
never to return. His place as a tail -twister will
be vacant for awhile. as his efficient assist
ant John Finer ty of Chicago failed to secure
the Endorsement of his constituents. On the
whole it looks as though the Forty-ninth Con
gress will be alta loss for the usual low comedians.
1t is true that Reed of Maine, and Sunset Cox
were reelected, but the formers wit is of the
clean order, and he cannot approach some of
those who leave US.

New YORK. Dec. 2O.-Fire broke out this
afternoon in Weston 6 Fiskes oil warehouse, a
sxstory building, which blazed up in minute
The people in the different lofts barely escaped
with their lives. The firm of Weston Fisk
were reiners and dealers in lubricating oils.
The stock was worth $4,000 The building
belongs to the Caswell estate; it was damaged
about $4,000. The principal danger appre-
hended was that an adjoining United States
bonded warehouse might catch fire. and every
effort was made to prevent this. Tobacco and
liquor of great value were stored in this build
ing. Up to P. NJ, it had not caught, but
smoke and water had inflicted damage to the
amount of $4,000 The losses are covered by
insurance.
Later in the afternoon the flames were got
under control, but not before they had burst
through the roof of the Weston & Fiske build
ing The flames were prevented, however,
from spreading to the bonded warehouses be-
yond. Property of We'll & Co., stored in the
warehouse, consisting of 5000 bales of imported
leaf tobacco, was damaged by smoke and
water. There were also l 600 barrels of whisky
in the warehouse, and in the entire building
property worth between $3.50, 900 and $780, 900 was
stored, all of which is well insured. Weston
& Fiske place their loss at $25, 000 which the
insurance is $40 000
