CONGREGATIONAL MEETING.
The Members of the Presbyterian Church
 Decide to Defer Selection ofa Lot.

After the termination of the II o'clock services yesterday at the Presbyterian church hall, Rev
 Caldwell, the pastor, announced a session of the congregation to ac- cept a report of the committee that had been appointed to recommend certain lots to the congregation on which to build their new church. The following three lots were reeom- mended by the committee: The old lot, the Major Tillar lot and the Alexander lot After this report was made, Major Speers arose and stated that he would like to hear a report from the Finance Committee. Mir. Joe Alexander, who had kept the books, was called on to give the re- port, but MT. J. w. Crawford at MT. AleXander's suggestion made the re- port as follows: Mr. Crawford stated that the Finance Committee had had subscribed $11,200, and that even with this amount they had not yet called on all the church members He also stated that he thought the com mittee could easily raise subscrip- tiOn to S20,000 by the time they were ready to begin building In addition to the above he said the church had 5000 insurance from the recent burning of the old church building, and this amount with the subscriptions gave them in insight $13,- 200. Major Speers then discussed the report of the Finance Committe. He said it would be difficult to collect all that had been subscribed. He spoke of the different lots in view and en- couraged the congregation to make haste slowly" He didn't want to see the church get in debt. He said he wanted to see a house built that would be credit to the congrega- tiOn and an ornament to the city. His idea was to first get the money then select the lot and build the house of worship. Accordingly Mai. Speers made the following motion: That the location of the church lot be delayed at least sixty days Mir. J. ". Crawford then made an amendment to the motion, that the time for the selection of a lot be sub ject to the call of the Executive Com mittee (the officers of the church. ] Major Speers accepted the amend ment and Rev. Mr. Caldwell put the motion to the congregation, first calling for the ayes and nays. A standing vote was called for. Eff teen in the congregation voted against the motion. the rest of the congregation voted in favor of it and the motion was declared adopted.

MILWAUKEE, WIS, Dee. 1.-The special order of the Circuit Court to- day, Judge Johnson presiding, is ar- gument on the application of Judge Jenkins, of the United States Circuit Court, for separate and immediate trial on the indictment returned against him as director of the de- funct Plankinton bank. Judge Jen- kins has retained ex-United States Senator Spooner as his leading coun- sel. There is no right of law for a separate trial. although, according to precedent, the court can grant it if in its discretion it deems the de- fendant entitled to it. Judge Jen- kins insists that he was performing his duties on the bench in Chicago and elsewhere when the bank became insolyent, and that he knew nothing of it's condition until the failure had been announced. Moreover he con- tends that by virtue of his position as member of the United States judiciary he is entitled to an immedi- ate trial in order that the cloud hanging over him may be removed especially as his defense is altogether different from that of his associates in the directory of the defunct bank.

BORNEO'S LOST DOODLE.
The Zulu's wad of Money GobbIed up h!


The Zulu's Wnd of Money Gobbled up by
the Rats.
The common pleas criminal court came
in yesterday at New Haven with Judge
Studley on the bench. The celebrated
Borneo MoSkego, the only red headed
Zulu, was the first prisoner to engage the
courts attention.
Borneo's hair has changed since his in
carceration. 1t Is now n very peculiar
color, very little of the auburn being left,
as that color has faded and the new hair
has come out black. Burneo had pleaded
guilty and was sentenced to twenty days
and costs on one count, the other two
counts being nolled on condition that he
leave town as soon rs he served his time.
Borneo insisted, however, that he had
buried $50 in the yard of the Rev E.
George Bidtle's house on COTE street, so
the judge ordered Deputy Sheriff Fredricks
to take Borneo to Mr. Biddle's and hunt for
the missing treasure.
He did SO. Borneo went to the rear of
the yard, back of an clubhouse, borrowed
n shovel and began to dig He struck
some stones and shoveled them over. Ii
was under these he said the money had
been placed in a blue cotton handkerchief.
But when Borneo turned over the stones
he uncovered deep rat hole that led of
under the clubhouse. Its done gone
down through darr' he exclaimed. thrust
ing his arm down the hole as far as he
could.
There was no use for further search. SC
Borneo sadly accompanied the sheriff back
to the Jail van and was taken up to
Whalley avenue.
