tho Hebrew congregation of Daven-
port by rendering his resignation as
pastor and Mt the same time formally
and publicly renouncing Judaism.
Rabbi Frcuder is an Austrian Jew, SO
years of age, u graduate of the Union
Hebrew college of Cincinnati. He
served II congregation at st. Paul in
1887 and 1888, was at San Diego, Cal,
a year, and more than a year ago came
here. From tho first he took posi-
ton OF unusual liberality in religious
matters, working with the Christian
pastors and inveighing against old
mosaic laws as too narrow and Hub
eral Tor the age. He stated In his re-
nunc alton that Judaism no longer
had mission IN the world and was a

lie had adopted no creed in place of
the one Iorsakcn, and added that
lacking Il pulpit he colld sell goods.

sued. Many jumped and were hurt in
the hurry. Ma or Nj. A. lligley, of
Cedar Rapids, was injured, having
been sruci on the shoulder in the
