CLEVELAND, o., Aug. 20.-There Is an
inside story 20 the heresy and resignation OF
hev Dr. George Thomas Bowling that does
not appear on the face. His letter OF resig-

congregation in the difference Of opinion that
had arisen between him and those RESPONSE

its preservation. The fact appears to
he that his resignation was compulsory
and not voluntary. The Second Baptist

confined in the jail at Elizabeth on suspicion
of having killed Edward Miller, the divinity
student and coachman, at Westfield, re-
GENTLY. Damaging evidence against Baldwin
was unearthed by Chief Keron, on Satur-
day, at Westield. He found tho missing
sachel which Baldwin made confession
recently to the public that he had
burned. II was in a vault attached to the
town hall at Westfeld, where Baldwin threw
it while che inquest was being held He
first tore up the bag, and then twisted the
frame cut Of shape. The lock he wrenched
of aud threw away. Chief Keron says no
has positive proof Of this, and that Baldwin
cannot deny it, The sachel had not been IN
any fire, as Baldwin alleged, because frag-
ments Of the lining and body still adhered 10
It's frame.
There was a sensation at Westfield when
this discovery was made, and those who
heretofore believed Baldwin innocent are
astonished and dismayed. Chief Keron says
every story told by the prisoner since his
arrest has upon investigation been proved TO
be false, and that the case against him now
Is so strong that he cannot escape conviction.

SECRETARY BAYARD At HOME.
His Cool and Inviting Home in this City,
How He Dresses.

How He Dresses.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Press to-day, says
Mr. Bayard does not change either his
appearance or his habits. OF late years
he has occasionally changed his silk hat
for a derby, and he meets summer with a
higher hat Of that style and black suit
Of lighter weight He goes to Whining
ton every Saturday and stays until Mon
day, but during the week he is at his
town house as usual His Wilmington
residence is ON the outskirts Of that rap
idly growing city on the crest Of the hill
and partly visible among the trees from
the railroad 1t is an old fashioned house,
with an acre or two Of ground around it,,
and fine old oaks casting their shade on
every side
THE rooms are as old fashioned as the
house, but they have the old fashioned
advantage of plenty of light and plenty
of friendly corners, where it is the de-
light of the Secretary to sit and read
Everything about the house speaks OF
the statesman and student, and
the old library, the books and
busts and pictures take one
back through the three generations
of Bayards who have been prominent in
the country's politics. The Secretary
enjoys his home life. and this summer
has all his family with him. He gets
back to Washington, however, as regu-
larly as a business man, and is not growl
ing any more than his clerks about the
unprecedented session of Congress.

Many think it is due to the feldspar
