TO FORM A NEW CHURCH

Another Rumor that Prof Briggs is At
tempting to Establish a New Theology.
CINCINNATI, May 30.-It is learned from
authentic sources that Prof. Briggs, now
on trial at Washington on the charge of
heresy, has been corresponding with E. D.
Morris, of Lane Seminary, concerning the
best method of forming a new church.
DR. Briggs wants to raise the banner of a
new theology. Prof. Morris has replied to
the letter attempting to discourage the
scheme. He told Briggs that very few
Presbyterian ministers would desert to 6
new standard.
The new movement has not beer
squelched, however, as it is known that
four well-known liberal Presbyterians Of
Cincinnati have gone to Washington with
the avowed intention of assisting DR.
Briggs new church project.

IT GROWS BRIGHTER
THE SOUTH SIDE GLASS COMMITTEE WILL
START TO. WORK TO-DAY,
Headed by August FrOhms and Charles Morn
ingstar-Tbe Uptown COMMITTEES Strength
snsd-Subscrip!ions Still Coming In.

The outlook for the final success OF
the project to re-establish the glass
business in Wheeling looks decidedly
brighter.
Yesterday Mr.. August Frohme, Of the
Hobbs-Brockunier works, arrived in the
city, ready to go to work to help raise
the needed stock, and this morning the
committee on that portion Of the city
will start out in earnest, headed by Mr..
Frohme and Charles Morningstar. Mr..
Frohme is, in measure, the personal
representative of Mr.. C. w. Brockun-
Ter, and is also backed by number of
prominent South Side gentlemen, who
will put down their names literally for
stock.
This looks decidedly encouraging,
and it now remains for the people in
the lower wards to come forward in a
liberal manner, that speedy success may
be achieved. This week ought to set
tie the whole matter, and the South
Side must take hold in earnest. Much
depends upon the Sixth and
Eighth wards, and the cit
liens down that way should
see to ii that every one able and willing
10 take even one share OF stock, has an
opportunity to subscribe. If you want
to aid in this matter, don't wait for the
Committee to call upon you. Hunt
them up, and do your share towards
keeping our industries in active opera
ton. The starting Of the glass works
will be most potent aid in banishing
"hard times" and there ought TO be no
further delay.
The uptown list amounted to about
SOS. 900 actually on paper, last evening,
aud there are yet more subscriptions In
sight, which the Committee will pro-
coed to obtain. Yesterday Mayor
Hamm and Michael Stein, of Fulton,
were added to the soliciting Committee,
to canvass their town, and they expect
to have quite a number Of shares taken.
The soliciting Committee is called 20
meet at the Office of the Dollar
bank, tomorrow evening at half-past
seven o'clock, and every member ought
TO be present with all the subscriptions
he can rake and scrape before that
time. Last night the total snoscrip1
lions on paper were In the neighbor-
hood of S125, 600. This ought to be
increased by $4,000 to-day and to-
morrow, and Saturday night ought to see
the matter settled In the affirmative.
A prominent glass worker said yester-
day if the full amount desired was
subscribed this week, the two glass
houses could be running by the first Of
the coming month, and that ought to
be the thing to be accomplished.
A pull all together, during the re-
naming days Of the week will see the
project safe.
Let every enterprislng citizen lay
hold OF the rope!
