NEWTOWN.
The fractional differences in the Presbyterian
Church broke out afresh at meeting of the Board
OF Trustees at the house OF ex-Justce John W.
Scheper on Wednesday evening. The matter
leaked out yesterday and II is feared that the ds-
sension which has divided the church Into TWO
factions may lead to disastrous results.
One faction Is antagonstic to the pastor. the
Rev j. T. Mailman, while the other Is friendly to
him and favors his ministry. The trustees OF the
church include j. W. Morgan. John g. Scheper'
Thomas Margrove. Abraham Proctor and Gustave
Hahinger Mr. Scheper. chairman OF the Board
called a meeting at his house. Trustee Morgan set
the ball rolling by accusing one or the trustees OF
being In a scheme to sell certain part or the
church property. Chairman Scheper thought the
remark applied TO him. and branded the statement
as false He tod Morgan to desist and failing TO
get order Mr. Scheper ordered Morgan out OF ms
house and threatened to use force II necessary
other trustees also tried to get order, but fanen
nents Of the Rev Mr. Mailman say he is too dicta-
torial while his friends say that the pastors enc,
