There was considerable excitement on
the streets OF Roanoke yesterday morn
ing after the eastern mail arrived over
the report published in several pa
that the Ohio extension of the Norfolk
and Western railroad had passed into
the hands of receiver. The rumor
was to the effect that Col. II. II. Vinson
had been appointed temporary receiver
OF the Ohio extension by United States
Judge Jackson at Charleston, w. Va,
arising out Of sensa tional attachment
suit that as begun Juno in tho United
States Circuit court at Charleston. Sims
and Enslow ami Joseph Chiffon filed
the papers in a suit by Thomas Fl.
Hopkins, assignee of Thompson Broth
ers, of CattsleJtsburg, Ky, against the
Norfolk and Western railroad for S44 600
due for work on construction of road
bel from Biueiield to Kenova. After
this an order of attachment was
issued, and iumor bad it that
Marshal o. D. Garden went to
Kt nova. where he levied on the roadbed
from Bluefield to Kenova together with
all tho rolling stock found on that por-
ton OF the line. 1t was also circulated
that the company was heavily involved,
and 1T was the belief that this suit
would bring on a number of others.
ihese run OrS were received at THE
LINES office Friday night, but no circu-
lation was given to the reports, as it did
not seem probable that receiver could
be appointed to control property worth

The noted Briggs trial. just ended
before the general Presbyterian as.

DR. Sunderland, "that there will be any
split in the church. DR.. Briggs friends
concluded to stay in and continue the
fight on the inside. He is a man OF
profound learning, but his teachings at
the Union Theological Seminary were
wildly at variance with the doc trines
which he had solemnly sworn that he
believed in and accepted. He had pub.
licly declared that the Bible was full
or errors, and would make no retraction
OF his declarations. The assembly by
vote OF nearly 3 to l decided to pass
upon his case, and by q vote of practi-
cally the same strength and proportion
voted to suspend him from the ministry
until he recanted. The assembly fur
Their voted to extend no further aid to
students at the Union Seminary and to
admit none OF its graduates to the min
istry. This was because tho Union
Seminary still stood by DR.. Briggs in
violation of the laws of its organization,
and regardless OF the fact that il had
been benefited financially hundreds of
thousands of dollars by Presbyterian
support.
