WILL NOT BE PUNISHED.


NEW YORK. Dec. 3.-The annual meeting
of the American Church Missionary Soci-
ETY. for the election of officers and the trans
action OF other business was held at the
Mission House to-day. Gen. Wagner Swayne,
president of the society. presided. The first
business was the reading of the annual re-
port, in which the alleged defalcation OF
Secretary William A. Newbold and Treas
urer Oakley were commented on. The re-
port speaks of the defalcation as follows:
The past year has involved the society
In severe humiliation and loss. An overhau,-
ing OF the society's finances disclosed that
the treasurer and the general secretary had
each of them taken for his own use a large
sum from the society's funds received for
sacred trust. The misconduct OF each or
them extended over period Of several
years. and. as is so often the case, even with
institutions organized expressly for ham
ding and taking care of money. was
brought to light mainly by an accident
The amount AIKEN by the treasurer is COM
puted by an expert accountant as 81 .S23
The amount taken by the general secretary
is computed by the same person at s1s.oss
from Sept. i. 1857. The society's principal
fund was put in the treasurers immediate
I charge, while the general secretary was put
y
receipts. The books were designed to be
kept so that each of these officers would
have full knowledge Of both funds. The APP
parent result has been that each of them
relied for immunity on his knowledge that
the other was In no position to bring the
situation to light.
THE treasurer was person who enjoyed
in the highest degree the confidence OF the
community, while the general secretary had
been for twenty-six years the society's
trusted superintendent. The treasurer found
means with which to make good the sum for
which he was accountable. The general sec
rotary had nothing nor had he any one who
was sufficiently interested in him to make
good the amount. The question Of proceed
ing against these persons as criminals was
a serious one and has been as seriously
considered. The money paid back by the
treasurer came from another source. While
no promise was made. II was found that the
circumstances were such that, having ac-
cepted II, there could rightly be no prosecu>
ton unless 1t were paid back. If. indeed,
there could be then. The general secretary
has been deposed from the ministry and was
old, penniless and publicly disgraced. To
proceed against him and not against the
treasurer would leave us justly open to a
charge that the prosecution was not because
he took the money, but because he had not
friends to pay IL back"
The executive committee was unanimous
in deciding that the society would not prose-
cute.
