A LIVELY CHURCH ROW.
The Minister Proves the Best Tode i'm
the Puddle.


New YORK, April Especial Telegram to
the BEE.1-The troubles which have ex-
listed among the members of the Brighton
Chapel congregation at Coney Island for
some months eliminated in a row last even
ing, which is likely to impair the usefulness
of the church. Rev. Ewing Tode accepted
the pastorate of the church about a year ago.
When MIR. Tode was called Captain Floyd S.
Sanford was trustee, and a liberal contribu-
tor to the finances of the church. The pastor
thought he exercised too much authority and
interfered with him in many ways. The re
suit was that Captain Sanford withdrew, and
many of the influential members followed
his example. A meeting was called last even
ing to take action on the resignation Of the
clerk. Mr.. Overton said: "All in favor of
rejecting Mr.. Goldstine's (the clerk resigna-
ton will hold up their hands" There was
some squabbling, and finally Mrs. Smith vol
unteered the remark that the minister's wife
was no lady. Mrs. Tode turned on her, say
ing: You have no right here.n
M mister Tode watched the fight until Mrs.
Smiths words stung him into action and,
sprin ging to his feet, he pointed his finger at
Mrs. Smith saying, you are a liar"
You wouldn't dare come outside of the
church and say that" said Captain San
ford.
Minister Tode said he would maintain the
truth at all hazards. The conservative mem
bers of the congregation probably fearing that
blows would be passed moved to adjourn for
two weeks, which was done. The Smith,
Sanford party left, vowing vengeance against
the pastor.

The sauatters at the River.

The cases of the 'squattersn in Browns
subdivision, near the river, were called up
yesterday in the district court. Some time
ago an injunction was issued by Judge Loot
borrow, restraining them from interfering
with this land in any way. Papers were filed
for the dissolution of this injunction, but the
day before they were to be heard Judge
Loofbourow was called away by illness in
his family and did not return to hear them.
Judge Thornell was asked to give the matter
construction of the law and practice he did
not want to interfere, Judge Loofbourow
having it in hand. This term of court the in
junction case comes up and the motion to
dissolve was to be heard to-day. Yes
terday it was called up at the suggestion on
the part of those who secured the injunction,
that they wanted to make a further showing,
and that this would take some time to pre-
pare. 1t was arranged that the case should
go over until a week from to-day. the adj
ditional showing to be filed by next Tuesday
morning, and the other side having until Fri
day to file rebuttals. The ''squattersn are
very anxious to have the injunction dissolved
so that they may go ahead with the cultiva-
tion of the land, and claim that this would
cause no damage to the parties claiming the
land, for if they gain possession by their
other suit, they could recover rental. Those
claiming the land and seeking to GUST the
squatters claim, on the other hand, that they
do not want the land cultivated, for if they
win their case and get possession they expect
to divide into lots and sell for residences.

Houses and Barns. Crushed In the Ice
and Syept AWAY.

and Swept Away.
Mason CRY. Ia, April 6-tSpecial Tele-
gram to the BEE Last night the section in
and about Rock Falls, in this county, was
visited by q disastrous food, the Shell Rock
river Overlooking its bank and completely
inundating the lower portion of the town. A
heavy rain had loosened the ice gorgcs, the
sloughs and creeks pouring into the river in
a perfect torrent. In less than two hours
the river had risen twenty feet. Houses and
barns were crushed by the ice and swept
away, together with the large dam at Todd's
-four mill and the l5O foot iron bridge. Some
of the parts of the latter were borne down
the stream a distance of two miles. There
were no fatalities but some narrow escapes.
A Mrs, Cruikshank and her babe were
floating about on a cake of ice for over an
hour before they were rescued.
A Mrs. Anderson and five children, whose
house had been swept away. barefootcd and
in their night clothes, were rescued in the
morning, from a sheet of ice which lodged
against the branches of a tree.
When the water receded IL left in the
streets cakes Of Ice three feet thick piled one
upon another, ten to fifteen feet high. The
damage done by the food TO public and pri-
vate property will exceed $40 600 and Is be
lieved to have been much greater far up the
stream. A relief party left here for the
scene to-day. Residents in this section for
thirty-five years state they never saw the
water so high nor so much destruction
wrought by a flood here,

Sid S~tringham, the assallant of Hi Baird,
has been at liberty since he was bound over
to the grand jury several weeks ago, Rev.
Henry belong acting as his bondsman in
the sum of 81, 600. When'the grand jury re-
turned the indictment against Stringham
Thursday afternoon Mr.. DeLong became
rather uneasy, and inwardly wished that
Stringham was in jail and that he was re-
leased from his bond. Fearing to make any
move in that direction lest his man should
take alarm and skip out, he yesterday in
vited Stringham to take a walk down to the
new court house, and the latter accepted the
invitation, as 'he hadn't much TO To-" En-
Jering the court room StrIngham threw him.
self carelessly into a chair, while Mr.. De-
Long went inside the bar to transact some
business" The result of the business
transaction was that the minister started out
and walked past his former companion as if
unconscious of the latter's presence, and
when Stringham arose to follow his appar-
emily forgetful friend he walked into the
arms of Sheriff O'Neil, who was waiting to
receive him. The look Of surprise and sor-
row that passed over the face of the victim
showed plainly that he had been confideuced,
and he expressed much establishment at the
change affairs had taken as he was marched
over to the jail and locked up.

Albert Canning, a boarder at the Del
monico hotel, on lower Broadway awoke yes
yesterday morning to realize the fact that he
had misplaced his confidence when he con-
sented to enter into partnership with w. Il.
Talbot and handed over his money to pay for
his interest in the busiress, Talbot repre-
scented that he had a contract with Paxton &
Gallagher TO bore a 1000 foot well, He ex-
planned that it would require $500 to purchase
the necessary outfit, and Canning easily fell
into the trap and paid over $50. The pair
went to Omaha TO make the purchase and
Talbot entered a wholesale house, and when
he came out showed a bill purporting TO be
the amount of his purchased property. Can
ming was perfectly satisfied, as Talbot said
that the outfit would ne delivered the follow
ing day. They returned TO this city and re-
tired at the DelmonicO that night, as usual.
In the morning Talbot was missing and has
not been seen since. 1t now appears that he
no contract with Paxton X Gallagher, and
his bill of purchase was bogus. He secured
$3.50 in hard cash and has skipped out, leav-
ing Coming to whistle for his money. .

Had No Remedy at Law.

LOUISVILLE, April Elm the United States
circuit court this afternoon the case of Rice
VS. the Louisville g. Nashville railroad, in
volving the question of rate discrimination in
favor Of the Standard Oil company, came up
on a demurrer to the bill. Judge Barnett
argued that even admitting the fact of dis
elimination, the plaintiff had no remedy at
law. The offense for which it was sought to
recover occurred before the passage of the
interstate law, and common law
did not apply, nor could this court apply any
statutory provisions of any of the states to
interstate Judge Jackson sus-
tanned this position and ordered the bill dis
