TRRING JOHN D. KNOX.
Old Charges Being Heard IN the First
Methodist Church.

A court composed of nine ministers
OF the Kansas conference presided over
by Rev L. K. Billingsley. elder of the
Topeka district is sitting today al the
First NJ. E church to try John D.
Knox of this city on the charges lately
brought against him
Mr.. Knox is defended by Rev DR.. H.
D. Fisher of this city
The conference is represented by Rev
Richard Wake and Rev. DR. c. S Dear
born of this city, and Rev. J. A Motter
OF Baldwin.
The court met at 9 o'clock this morn
ing The entire morning was occupied
in a discussion of what persons were
eligible to membership in the court and
to act as officers
When it was decided what ministers
might sit to try the case, objections
We're raised against two of the stenog-
raphers chosen because they were not
church members. After a heated dis
cussion they We're allowed to serve. At
u O'Clock the court adjourned TO 100
This afternoon the regular trial was Ia
ken up.
The trial will probably last several
days.
Mr.. Knox's career has been an inter
esting one. For years he was consider
ed a wealthy man and still lives with
his family in his handsome home BEL
voir, in Potwin. For over 40 years he
was a Methodist minister.
About six years ago the John D
Knox Banking company was forced to
make an assignment. A great many of
his creditors We're Methodist ministers
or ministers widows Soon after the
failure Mr.. Knox was accused of dis
honesty, and some of his creditors went
so far as to institute a suit against him
in the criminal courts on the charge
of embezzlement.
committee from the Kansas confer
ence was then appointed to investigate
his management of affairs, and as a re-
suit of its deliberations ordered him to
surrender his license to preach. This,
Mr. Knox, who claimed he had not re-
ceived fair treatment from the commit
tee. refused to do.
At the last general conference of the
church, held a Cleveland, o., last May,
Mr. Knox had his case presented, and
after investigation this body reversed
the decision Of the committee appointed
by the lower conference and restored to
Mr.. Knox the privileges OF ministry.
But thus far no regular trial has been
held, as up to this time no formal
charges have been brought. Now, how
ever, charges,as given above, have been
instituted, and the committee Of the
conference has resolved itself into a
regular court of justice
In all his troubles Mr.. Knox has been
defended by Dr. H d. Fisher, who
represents him in this case.
If this court finds Mr. Knox guilty as
accused, he viii not only forfeit his
ministerial license, but be dropped from
church membership.

From 1900 Employees for Stock.

Chicago Dec. 15.-Illinois Central
railroad officials have before them the
applications of 1900 employees of that
road who desire to purchase the com
pany's stock. These applications are
coming in at the rate of between $50
and 300 a month.
The Illinois Central employs q 900
men. More than one-fourth Of the en-
ployes Of the company are now stock
holders. and it is thought one-half Will
soon be enrolled.
In the success of the plan of making
the employees financially Interested with
the executives, it is believed the com
pany has taken a formal step in the
direction of solving the strike problem
and teaching the laboring classes the
value Of economy. Stuyvesant Fish
president of the company, is the author
Of the plan which no other railroad in
the world has yet adopted, although its
success has been proved after months
Of experiment. Large manufacturing
concerns and other corporations are
addressing the Illinois Central for in
formation as to how the scheme has
worked and if it can be applied to 9th
er industries.

Ways to Continue the Fight.

Washington, Dec. ia meeting of
the officers and executive committee Of
the American bimetallic union began
here today. its purpose being to devise
ways and means to continue work in

mount business of the meeting will be
to arrange the details for convention
of silver leaders throughout the cOun-
try with a view to the inauguration Of
a comprehensive organization in behalf
of silver 1t is said to be the desire at
least of some officers of the union to
call together in this convention, the Of
dcers of all the state silver organiza-
tiOns including the silver Populist lead
ers and the ablest men generally in the
silver movement and perfect q plan Of
operations to be begun in the near fu-
ture and continue at least through the
campaign of 1900
1t is argued that the want of organi-
cation and funds were the two causes
of defeat of silver in November last
and that the evil of REORGANIZATION at
least can be remedied by beginning the
preliminary work at once and cOntinu-
ing until the structure is completed in
all of its details. Whether the present
meeting viii decide the question of
convention cannot be stated, but the
matter is actively agitated. The officers
OF the union are A. J. Warner of Ohio.

TINKERING WITH THE LAW
Still Another Proposal About the
Metropolitan Police Board.

There has been some gossip in Popu-
list political circles as to the best man
ner for the incoming Administered to
deal with the police boards in cities of
the first class The latest plan that
is proposed and the one that seems to
be meeting with the approval of most
of the leaders of the party is to still
continue the boards and amend the
law so that the governor appoints men
recommended by the central commit
tees of the three parties that cast the
largest vote at the last presidential
election. II this measure is embodied
in the present law, its supporters claim
that it viii give the people Of each city
a chance to choose their own commits
sioners and at the same time it viii
keep the police boards partisan
and viii not let the police department
in each city become a political machine.
1t will also relieve the governor Of
much of the responsibility and trouble
that now invariably comes as soon as
the question of appointing police COM
r1issiOners comes up
