the free-trade politician who seeks to
have goods imported into the United

If the wages of the American working
men are not reduced TO the standard of
those in England. and the goods are not

OPPOSED TO- His RETURN
-. =
Members Of the United Brethren
Church Want a New Pastor.
Some of Them Are Dissatis With
the Course Pursued by the Pres
ent Incumbent.

There is a split In the United Brethren
Church, corner OF North Capitol and r
streets northwest, over the return of the
pastor, Rev. j. f. Fout, and the Maryland
conference, that meets in Hagerstowu to-
day, will have to take action in the matter
before the white winged dove of peace
again hovers over that congregation. The
trouble eliminated at q meeting Of the
official board OF directors n few nights ago.
A motion was laid before the board by
some of the pastors friends. suggesting
that the board ask the conference to return
him. The motion was Immediately pounced
upon by the opposition, and met with such
vigorous opposition that il was deemed
wise to drop it. This was done. and SO far
as the board was concerned the matter
ended.
Pastor Fouts difficulties began shortly
after he took charge OF the church, a year
ago, and were the outcome OF dispute with
the board of trustees. The cause of the
dispute was whether or not the church
should be used for the purposes OF giving
entertainments. The pa stor held that it was
proper and fitting that the church should he
used in giving entertainments for its benc-
fit, but the members of the boar OF trustees
were of the opinion, and stu ok to it. that the
church should be used only as 4 place of re-
ligious worship.
SO far the pa stor has had his way, to a
limited extent, but that matter will also
be laid before the conference at Ha gerstown
and decided. Messrs. Washington TOpham
and Samuel Wise are the IN delegates from
this city TO the convention. and 4 accompanied
by Mr.. n. A. Lucas, president of the board
of trustees, left for Hagerstown this Morn
ing.
Members of Mr.. Fout's congregation, as
wellas smcmbcrsof the board oftrustees, say
that during the year he has had charge OF
the church II has advanced in every direc-
ton. The congregation has grown cx-
tcnsivcly, many repairs and additions have
been made to the new church building, and
the pastors work among his flock has
been far-reaching and beneficial.
His opponents, claim, however, that he
lacks executive ability, and is unable to
make various elements in his church bar-
moniZc as they should. They think he has
not the proper influence on his congrega-
ton, and while they coDccde that he is a
hard, faithful worker, they are of the
opinion that some one else might be more
successful in bringing together the oppos-
ing factions.
The two delegates are I'm favor Of Mr..
Fout's return. and Mr.. Lucas, who accom-
panies them, win not oppose it. The
delegates will use every effort TO have him
reappointed, and ihc majority OF the con-
grcgation are OF the opinion that he win
be with them for another year.

UNDER A wOMAN'S THUMB.

How Clara Barton Influenced the Un-
ruIy Soldiers.
An old man living near Warrenton,
Va, when reading in Washington paper
that Clara Barton was going to Armenia.
came at once TO the capital to see her. She
had gone from the city and the old man
refused to be Comforted. He sent "his
love and $25 to help her on" He said 10
one of the railroad men: You may be
proud 10 carry Clara Barton on your train.
In 1862 / drove for her. Just before
a big battle she started off toward War
renton. She had an ambulance, six great
wagons and thirty-eight mules, and seven
of us young fellers she picked up for
teamsters Now we want used to be-
ing ordered round by a woman, aud
little mite of one and young, too; and
when we got to Harper's Ferry five of
the boys got down off the wagons and
said they'd had army enough.
Now. this little mite just got out of
her ambulance and said: Boys, you can
go or not. just as you please; ] can hire
plenty of drivers. Unless you go willingly
and peacefully you can't go at all
"She was firm, but spoke SO gentle and
pleasant that every felcr got back on his
wagon and we drove her supply teams
Just as long as she wanted us.

bad, after all. being ordered round by
woman God bless her! She's always
the same to her boys, and we're proud TO
have been her teanisters, too"

THEY WANT HALF FARES
Salvation Army Cfficers Ask Con-
cessions From Railroads.
Claim They Should Receive the Same
Consideration as Ministers of
the Gospel.

A question soon to come up before the
| Interstate Commerce Commission is wheth-
| er or not Salvation army officers sarecntitled
| to the half-rate fares allowed ministers
OF the gospel.
Major Stilwell. who resides in Mime
| apolis and is at the head OF the department
| OF Minnesota and Northern Michigan. has
| endeavored to persuade the railroads to
grant him the same reductions allowed
| clergymen.
The railroad companies have refused on
the ground that he is not a minister OF
| the Gospel. Major Stilwell complained
| to Attorney General Childs. OF Minnesota,
and the latter referred the case to the st ate
railroad commission. which in turn sent
the complaint TO the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
Secretary Mosely. of the commission,
said yesterday that he had not yet received
the complaint from the Minnesota COR mis-
sion and knew nothing OF any appeal made
by Major stilwell.
Commenting on such cases, Secretary
Moscly said that They are frequently
questions OF fact" He referred to SINH
lar cases, one of which was that of Edgar
w. Emerson, OF this city, against the Chi
cago, Rock Island and Pacific Railway
Company. Emerson claimed that he wasa
minister of religion of the spiritualist faith,
and a resident of this city, and that he was
refused the reduci ion which the road had
been granting TO other ministers. Thecase
was settled amicably, because il was shown
that Emerson had not produced proper crc-
dentials when making application.
The other case was that OF Mrs. Cora L.
Richmond, also a spiritualist. In this case
1t was decided tina, Mrs. Richmond was Il
minister AMI entitled TO the reduced rate.
In the case OF Major Stilwell, it will be
necessary TO prove. first, that the road
in question is issuing reduced tickets to
ministers OF the Gospel second. that he is
a minister OF the Gospel, and, third, that
he has shown proper credentials. 1t is
claimed that the railroads are not com
PEELED to grant ministers half rates, but
they can make no discrimination If they
are granting them. The interstate com
mercc Law provides that they may give half
rates but does not say they shall.
The question as TO whether Ma jor Stilwell
is minister will be determined as a fact.
IL he is engaged in no other profession but
that OF preaching the Gospel, he is likely
to be proclaimed a minister. and entitled
TO the privileges accorded the clergy.
