A CHICAGO SWlNDLE.

SEDALIA, No, May 25.-Fifty or more
persons of Sedalia, who had invested all
the way from $50 to $50 in the Aldine hotel
scheme, a supposed Chicago concern,
which collected the amounts named from
people here as payment for hotel accom-
modatlons during the fair, today received
a request for more money. The hotel con-
Germ asked for additional money to finish
the construction of the hotel, which, SO
say the investors here, they supposed was
finished and was ready for occupancy
The Sedalians will not send more money
1t Is intimated that the firm has duped
them, and that no hotel has been or was
intended to be built.
CHICAGO, May 25.-The promoters of the
200 or more worlds fair hotels are ia q
panic. The coming guest is SO long com
ing that some OF the bonIfaceS are on the
verge of distraction. Many 500-room
hotels have been open for month, and
have cared for probably dozen persons in
that time. The Aldine, on Sixtv-sixth
street, sent circular out 10 the stock
holders yesterday, stating they would
have TO forfeit 80 per cent of their invest
ment. Ii is explained that the majority
or strangers now in the city are stopping
with friends At any rate, the barns in
the worlds fair district, called hotels, are
occupied only by general gloom and the
servants. Many of the landlords are pay
ing heavy rentals and not n dollar in sight.
The great rush expected has not material
lZed, aud now they say there never will be
enough visitors to make the hotels pay.

laid on the table The report was adopt.
ed. with no dissent.
A resolution was adopted providing for

The assembly was then resolved into a
judicial court, aud Dr. Briggs resumed his

to entertaining the appeal from the Judg-
ment of the presbytery thereon.
At ll:25 o'clock Dr. Briggs yield for a
motion to ad iourn, and recess was taken
until the afternoon.
At the afternoon session of the assem em-
bly, DR.. Briggs began his argument where
he left off in the morning. He wished to
make an explicit denial, he said, of the
charge that be had preached against the
fundamental doctrines of the church. Il
affirm that | believe" he said, turning
with outStretched hands to the audience,
''the Holy Scriptures to be the work of
God" He closed with an appeal that the
case might 90 to the synod OF New ork
If that were done, he would aid in the full
solution of the case, and then if it were
sent back to the next general assembly he
would abide by its decision, whatever it
might be.
As DR.. Briggs took his seat a wave of
applause ran over the audience in the rear
OF the church, which evoked an indignant
rebuke from the moderator.
Then Colonel McCook began the closing
argument for the prosecution.
A recess was taken until the evening,
when Colonel McCook concluded his argu-
ment.

wizard, now in progress here Ignored at

Culp was finally subjected to such intoler-
able annoyance, aud perhaps fearing some
overt act to dispose of him within the SIX

of the law. This was denied him, as IN
Ohio laws there are no provisions to pro-
