NO TROUBLE IN TIE ST. NICHOLAS CLUB

The reports Of trouble at the st. Nicholas Club
seem 10 be without foundation. At time In its
history has the club been in better condition than at
present. The average daily attendance is larger BY
90 per cent than last year. and rumo Of dsaffectim
on the part OF any Al the officers are untrue.
An officer of the club, and one in a position to
know gave the following facts to Tribune reporter
last evening" "Far from being bankrupt the club has
assets of $4,000. Against this there are debts
amounting to only $1,000 and fully onethird Of
this can be nquidated by the payment OF
accounts due the club by members-all of which are
good and due. The rumOr Of trouble between the
president David Banks and the board Of trustees Is an
exaggeraton Of slight dispute over the discharge OF
certain servants in the club, who were, in Mr. Banks's
opdnion incompetent, and this was amicaby settled
Mr. Bankss election as one Of the managers OF the
New-York Club was only another honor paid to one
who is a member Of about every club in New York,
and who occupies place Of trust In
many of them. The st. Nicholas Club
has now membership of 22o. out OF o
limit of 300 The peculiar and exclusive qualification
that candidate for membership must have, that Is
direct descent from person who was resident OF the
CITY or State of NewYor prior to the year debars
MANY who would otherwise be glad TO JOIN
The ST. Nicholas Club has far outgrown Its present
quarters and is looking for another SITE

TO the Editor Of TIE Tribune.
Sir: 1t is with very great surprise that find in
The Tribune Of this morning what purports to DO
the record OF interview with me, but which can
not allow to be understood as in more than few
details statement Of facts. What Bishop Potter
and the Standing Committee of the Diocese have done
in respect Of my application for Holy Orders Is a
matter of record but what they will do with refer
ence TO the time of my full admission TO the ministry
of the Episcopal Church is for their future considera
ton. NV theological views were not touched on In
the brief interview, and the reporter has failed IN
10 present what believe the future OF souls IT
Is enough IL state that hold firmly the doctrine OF
future punishment. and that have been strictly OBJ
