DIR. TAYMAGE MAY RESIGN.
His Church Deep In Debt and There Seems
No Chance of Relief.


New York, March IA catastrophe is
impending in the Brooklyn tabernacle. The
load of debt under which it is struggling
has become so oppressive and apparently in
surmountable that DR.. Tamagc admits
that he may feel obligated to give up the
fight resign his old charge and accept one
of the numerous calls to other cities which
he has received during the last three OF four
years. The construction of the tabernacle
on Green avenue has Saddled the c0nSre-
CATION with mountain of debt. There Is
IL mortgage of S125,0O0 held by Russell
Sage, 100000 in outstanding notes and
minor debts, and over 5000 due rs juf.%-

itors of the tabernacle, that it is Imperative
and must be met, no matter what the con
sequences. so far only $1,000 or $4,000
has been subscribed. DR.. Taimage said
today that the situation was very serious
one and that he was greatly oppressed by
the financial troubles, which hampered and
hindered him in his work. lie admitted

A NIGHT OF TERROR.
THE BOTTOM FALLS OUT OF Il TOWN
IN ENGLAND.
The Peculiar Experience o. tho Good Peo-
pie of Sandgate-h Town That Is
Now Practically Deserted.

London. March 5.--Late last night the
people of SYNDICATE, county of Kent. were
aroused by the rocking of houses and loud
rumbline under ground. Walls split, cell
in"s fell, foundations sank and roofs fell.
As the Inhabitants fled to the streets they
found large rents in the ground and were
almost overcome by ncXious vapors. Eve
rybody supposed that the town was being
shaken by an earthquake and as the Iumb-
ling continued hundreds fled in
IL panic to the nearest towns.
A few remained behind to remove
their furniture from the falling houses.
The reports carried abroad by the fugi-
tives caused troops i'll an adjacent camp
to hasten to the aid of the people still in
Sandgate. The soldiers ard citizens work
ed for two hours in moving the most valu-
able property from the houses and IN
erecting tents iii the fields about a mile
outside the town for the women and cml-
dran.
At the end of that time the rumbling had
ceased, and an investigation was made III
the town by the commander of the troops
and several citizens. They found tic
ground on which SYNDICATE stands had sunk
several feet. and that less slibsidcnce had
extended throughout the surrounding dis
trict, affecting i'll all, about Il square mile.
The gas mains had been broken and the
connections with water pipes disturbed
so that supplies of both gas and water had
been stopped. Many cottages had been
wrecked completely, and better built houses
cracked and thrown out of plumb so that
they could not be occupied with safety.
Nevertheless many of the inhabitants re-
turned to the town toward morning. lie
