and r. Chapman wers not legally and canon
icailv entitled TO vote neither they eligible
Nv ansin nc and conclusion is that neither Mr..
HOFFMAN nor Mr. Chapman was legally elected
yestrvrnen: and that the vestry 10 now composed
of the other vest rymen elect named on the 50
called Rector's ticket together with the War.
To this finding have set my hand and seal

THOMAS A STARKEY,
Bishop Of Newark
Nv tbis decision the bishop declares the
rector's ticket elected, but makes Mr.
Hoffman and Mr.. Chapman not eligible
as yestrymen. This leaves the vestry as
foliows:-G. A. De Forest, Warden; A.
Permission. S. Ross. J. Ross and A. Durr,
Vestrymen. MIR. J. j. Detwiller ana Mr..
John Williams were also elscted. but
NOW A PROTEST.
One of the old vestrymen stated last
night. .sThe decision does not satisfy us
by any means. We have forwarded a
protest 70 the bishop claiming that the
facts were uisrepresented. There were
only twenty-four votes cast at the cleo
tion, and not twenty-five, as the
bishops letter makes 1t SEEM Both
sides have agreed that the vote stood
fourteen for the rector and ten against
him. Now by casting out the votes Of
Chapman, Hoffman ana the Lilliendahl's
and admitting the rejected votes OF Mr..
James Williams and Mr.. Lockwood, the
result would be In our favor. Until this
protest is acted upon, we cannot con slider
the matter settled. Mr.. Williams, whose
vote was rejected. really had more right
to vote than any other person at the
meeting, and the treasurer's book,
liz examined, would show this.
We have been holding church services at
the residences of the various members
every Sunday evening and shall continu g
to do SO. The old choir and about sixty Of
the congregation are On our side, and we
will not give up the fight yet. Next Sun
day VIE will meet at Mr.. G.. II. Mean
erny's house, No II Columbia place. Ny
opinion is that the bishop will take no
notice of the protest, and IL he does not.
I think the rupture will be permanent.
as our side will not worship at the church
while Mr.. Chapman is rector. | am very
sorry this trouble has occurred. but
think we are only claiming what is just
and proper. =
A NEWS reporter called at the residence
of the rector, aud was informed that Mr..
Chapman had taken his stand in the mat
ter and had nothing to say. Mr.. Hoffman.
who has been removed from the vesIry By
this decision, said;-"The bishops letter
il, of course, against me. but l said. in the
first place, would abide by his decision,
and I shall do so. do not know what
the others Intend doing, but the matter is
settled as far am concerned"

DENTON, March 1.-THE weather
which has prevailed throughout this
section for two weeks past is considered
favorable to good crop of fruit. This
time last year the trees were in bloom,
and the freezes that followed were ruin
Gus to the exposed germs 1t is now
thought by many peach growers that the
crisis has passed, and they consider the
buds in fair condition. The late cold
snap killed some buds of early varieties
on the north side of the trees, but the
injury is not thought to be serious. Ii
is estimated that if every tenth bud
fruits there will be a good crop, and
there are no good reasons to show that
one-sixth Of the buds are damaged.
With cropof peaches Caroline county
will grow almost double the quantity
that has been raised any preceding year.

HoW HE DROPPED $4,000.
A NTiddIetown Man Who Was Led into a
Losing Business Transaction.


In Philadelphia last Friday w. N;
Wolfe was held under $4,000 bail by
Magistrate Durham for further hear
ing on the charge of conspiracy with
Charles A. Northrop, whose where
abouts is unknown, and with others, to
cheat and defraud Jacob B. Maxwell of
Middlctown, Del, stopping at 1888 Arch
street, out Of about $4,000, and with OBJ
tanning his money by false and fraudu-
lent representations. Maxwell claimed
that in November last he answered an
advertisement offering for sale an estab-
lished manufacturing business paying
$500 month over all expenses. He
entered into an agreement with Wolfe,
who pretended to be q partner of G,
S. Northrop of Boston, the owner, by
which he was to acquire the rights
Of a patent bandage for the states of
Pennsylvania, Delaware and the greater
part Of New Jersey, at the end Of is
days trial. He was to pay $3,750 cash
and $3.50 in goods, if the sales in that
time amounted to 5000. He paid S375
on account and over $4,000 at the end
OF the time, as the profits appeared salts
factory. Asso as he paid the balance
to Northrop the sales fell off rapidly,
the agents who had been sent from New
York We're withdrawn, the profits de-
creased, and, on investigation, he dis
covered that many of the sales were
fictitious, and he also found that Wolfe
was not partner of Northrop. Testi.
mony WAS given to show that the bust
ness had been sold once before to Martin
Book of Hazleton, who found the profits
were small, and who resold to Northrop

HAGERsTowN, March 11-One of
the large peach growers of Washington
county says that after careful cxamina-
tion Of the trees in the Beaver Creek
neighborhood he found scarcely any
buds injured. He thought the promise
was good for an abundant crop. An
other grower, Mr.. J. NJ. Slower, who
had examined several orchards a little
off the slope of the mountain near
Smithburg, found 80 per cent Of the
buds frozen. He ascribes this result to
iniudicious pruning, which left the buds
weak and unable to stand the low tenn
peranre Of the last cold spell Mr..
stover thinks that, generally speaking,
the mountain peach orchards will pan
out better than the bay region because
snow in the mountains protected the
buds, while in the bay districts rain
freezing on the trees killed the germ Of
life.

partnership with his brother, j. Roman
Dixon, who has been practicing law
there for several years. The members
of the bar and the officers of the court
held a meeting, Hon. ]. w. Crisfield,
chairman, and G. r. Lankford, secretary.
Resolutions were adopted expressing
sincere regret for Mr. Dixon's departure.
In letter which had accompanied his
resignation Mr.. Dixon expressed his ap-
probation of the kindness shown him
by the court and members of the bar.
He was looked upon by the court as one
of the brightest young lawyers in this
circuit. The court will appoint some
one to the place until the next general
n1prtiou
