Plymouth Church Divided Over Rev.
G. III. Tewksbury's Resignation.
At meeting of the Plymouth Congrega-
tional church last evening, majority of
the members present voted against accept
ing the resignation of their pastor, Rev.
George H. Tewksbury, which was rendered
some days ago. The regular prayer-meet-
ing was held at the church, and at its con-
clusion Mr.. Tewksbury withdrew.
The congregation then took up the con-
sideration of the resignation. A. P. Bur-
well, the chairman of committee APP
pointed to. confer with the pastor,
reported that they had met with
him, and that he had said
that inasmuch las his work had
been adversely criticized he had decided
that his official usefulness was impaired,
and had decided that the proper course
was to tender his resignation. The COM
mittee recommended that a ballot be
taken on the matter of accepting Mr..
Tewksbury's resignation. The report was
accepted, and the meeting proceeded
to ballot. Out of about 800 members of the
church seventy-five were present and cast
votes. Of these twenty-six were for and
forty-nine against accepting the resigna-
ton.
After the meeting Mr.. Tewksbury made
the statement that he was not prepared to
say whether the action of the church would
have any effect on his decision to resign
until he had time to consider it.

there may be an extra session. although I
am not particularly anxious to break into
my work and go back to Olympia.
There are about million acres of these
state lands to be selected. If they are
chosen now, we can get lands worth, say,
$40 an acre. II we wait till 1892 or 1898, We
shall have to so into the foothills or on the
mountain top to find any lands, and we
shall get land worth not more than 81 or
So an acre.

saving by an immediate choice-a saving
which would amount to far more than the
cost of the.extra session to pass an appro-
priation for the purpose"

Newcastle Trouble Finally Settled-Sul-
livan's Guards at Gilman.
Robert Bridges. of the Knights of Labor
joint executive board. returned from New
castle yesterday and reported that the
withdrawal of the contract by the new
superintendent was all the miners re-
quired, and yesterday morning they all
returDed to work.
He said that twelve men in all had pre-
viously signed the contract, and eight of
those could not speak English; that the
assembly will not inflict any penalty for
the action, but permit them to return to
work with the rest, but that a request has
been made TO have those contracts an
nulied. He said further that nearly all
the men in the opposing faction have
made application to become members of
the old assembly, and the best of feeling
prevails. The men who struck are to be
the first to secure work.
Among the terms of settlement was an
agreement by Superintendent Dickson to
fill the first vacancies which occur with
those of the men discharged by Mr.. Corey
who have not left Newcastle.
A coal train came down the road yester-
day and by Sunday traffic will have
reached its usual volume again, and the
trainmen who were laid Off on account of
the strike will all be at work again.
Mr.. Bridges said the Knights of Labor
would now turn their attention wholly to
the Gilman trouble.
1t seems that the withdrawal of his
deputies from Gilman by Sheriff Woolery
was due to the employment of some of
Suiliyan's guards by the coal company.
4 dozen of these men have gone to Gilman
in the last few days and, as Sheriff
Woolery had stipulated that they should
not be employed together with his depu-
ties, he withdrew his men on their appear

II ~as announced by the chair that the
Crit bill on fife for signature was the Har-

II, response to the usual announcement
81 the chair that he wonid sign the bill IN
les there was an objection, assent w1
given and the bill signed.
III. Shipley said lie would take that OPP
portuni.y TO move that the house recnce
from its amendment TO tie police bill.
He felt satisfied that there was no more
NE for a third captain than for the fifth
wheel of coach. He did not agree with
the imposition to have three captains.
but rather than have the bill defeated he
w0uld move to recedc.
Nj. Barton asked what was the inten-
ti0n; we're the captains to take twelve
hour watches?
III. Shipley answered that Chief Rogers
told the COMMITTEES he could get along
With two captains. The intention was
that the chief should take one watch; the
captains would be practically his assist
ants.
Mr.. Bagiey was decidedly opposed 20
agreeing with the board against his own
Judgment He saw no reason to recede
from position in which they knew them
selves to be right. He confirmed Mr..
6hiplcy as to the chief being willing 10
try 70 get along with two captains.
Mr.. Willis said il would be very poor
fnrre postponed for the sake of q difference
- to one captain. He thoughtit the poor
81 economy TO retain fourteen more than
vere needed, because the two houses could
not agree ON a matter of detail
On motion Of Mr.. Barnes the matter was
postponed until next Monday night.
Mr.. Bagley gave notice that he was done
with having the board hold its club over
his head. It had come to be matter of
common knowledge that no bill could pass
thc council unless the vagaries of certain
aldermen we're taken into account.
The house then adjourned until Monday
night.
The board Of aldermen had been sum-
moned. bat President Hall had signed the
ordinance last night and their presence
