MIR. Todd Wins.

The Washington City Presbytery, with
which the First Presbyteri9n Church Of this
city ia connected. held a session yesterday
in GEORGETOWN, Rev. John Riddle, of Falls
Church. acting as moderator The autumn
meeting of the Presbytery was ordered to
be held at Falls Church, and the next meet.
ing in Washington at the New York Ave
nue. Church.
At the afternoon session the committee on
home missions recommended that no appro-
priation be made for the Manassas mission,
where Rev. Francis ii. Todd Was stationed.
This action of the committee was new
move by the opponents Of Mr. Todd to have
him removed from that mission BIZ starving
him out.
When the general synod of that church
at their meeting in October last exonerateo
Rev. Todd from the charges that he had
sustained improper relations with an un.
known woman, it was generally believed
that the matter was settled But Elder
Hornbaker was still determined to drive the
reverend gentleman from Mana:saa. The
salary paid to Rev. Todd by the board Of
home missions in New York is $500 per an
nun, and the appropriations are made on
the recommendations of the local commit
tees OF each presbytery. The committee o.
this presbytery ia composed of Revs. Chllds
Nourse. Bttinger and Chester, and Elder;
Balentyne and Darlington.
The opponents of MIR. Todd, headed by
Elder Hornbaker, brought pressure to beal
on that committee to have the approprie
lion for Manassas mission not recommend
ed, They were successful aud four mem
hers of that committee joined in such re
mort. They were Revs. Nourse, Bittinger
and Chester, and Elder Ballentyne. Rev
Mr.. Childs took no action either way, anc
Elder Darlington was not present. Inc
Preshyte then went into executive session
on the adoption of the report, the opponent
of Mr.. Todd being represented by NIT. Gra
ham. of Clifton, Va. while Mr.. Todd Wai
defended by a committee from his church
consisting of Mayor WINNER, Councilman
Millipan, and Messrs. Bennett and Baldwin
AT the conclusion OF the remarks the ballo
| was taken, and by vote OF 30 to 10 the re
port of the committee was rejected. This
| ia considered victory for MIR. Todd, and bi
friends are very jubilant.
In Oetober last the Manassas cnurcn sus
pended Elder Hornbaker for on.attendanct
without trial. He appealed to the pres
bytery, and on investigation it was founf
that the church had been hasly. They art
allowed TO suspend member for that cause
without trial, but they must admonlsh mn
al least one year previous to the action. II
this case they had not done so, and thu
Presbytery sustained his appeal. 1t wal
stated that the church would now have
church trial and suspend him that way.
