SPLIT In The CHARITY WORK
Open Door No Longer Controlled by
the Central Union Mission.
Founder Bruen's Hasty Action Led
the Directors to Stand OH
Their Dignity.

The Open Door Mission, on ID street near
Thirteen-and-a-half street, established and
supported by W. Livingston Bruen, the
banker-evangclist, is no longer controlled
by the Central Union Mission, and an inter
esting story lies back of this statement.
Mr.. Bruen founded the Open Door about
a year ago in order to afford a refuge for
scarlet women who might have "a desire
TO enter upon new lives. Miss Stuckey, a
milliner, who is a Central Union Mission
worker. was placed in charge, keeping it
open from O'Clock at night until 8
Il. IN. every day. Mr.. Bruen paid the rent,
S25 per month, and Miss Stuckey volun-
tcered her services.
Mr.. George w. Wheeler, of the board OF
directors Of the Central Union Mission, was
given the supervision of the place. He also
conducts the night open air meetings in the
Division, and after talking for a time in
the streets has been in the habit of al iourn-
ing to the Open Door for the rest of the ser
vice.
1t is stated that great work has been
accomplished, and during one month recent
ly six women were rescued and given a
start upon virtuOus careers.
Mr.. Bruen spent some time in Europe this
summer, and upon his return "A gossip went
to him and stated that during his absence
the Central Union Mission had done little
or nothing with the Open Door. Thcreupon
Mr.. Bruen hastily sat down and wrote the
union directors n letter, stating that he
had engaged Mrs. McCrumb, nIatron OF
tranps' bath house at PittShurg, Pa, to
take charge of the Door, and that she prob
ably would prefer to report to him, instead,
as customary, To the directors.
A meeting OF the board was held, and a
reply was sent that they could not con-

sent to be responsible for a work not
controlled by them.
Mr.. Bruen' 5 next letter was more to the
point than his first, and in 1T he stated
that it was his desire To take the open Door
under his personal charge.
Again the directors met, and later Mr..
Bruen was informed that his action was
agreeable 10 them, but they would pro-
ceed at once to remove their organ, chairs,
beds and other furniture from the Open
Door.
The matter rested here until Mrs. Nc
CrHmb came to tie city. She looked overthe
Door. ard at once expressed her disSatis-
faction with her ne W place, and the matrUn-
ship of the CrittentOn Home beng vacant
she accepted that, and left Mr. Bruen in
the lurch.
Mr. Bruen waited awhil g, and then
evoked the union directors, asking that
they resume control of the Door Still
another meeting followed, the directors
stood on their dignity, and, oEining that
Mr.. Bruen had wronged them in listen
ing to gossip, and in acting in such round
about way had shown lack of confidence
in them: therefore, they declined to re-
consider their form er action.
The directors now state that they con-
sider it best, since Mr.. Bruen supports the
Door. for him to have active charge of it,
On the other hand, but for Miss Stuckey,
who has consented temporarily to remain
there at night, the Door would no longer
be open, as another matron has not been
secured.
AS showing they have no personal ILL.,
will in the matter, the union workers
continue their street meetings in the Di-
vision, and go to the Door as before for
for the prayer service. Nevertheless,
the blue and gold mission sign will come
down from the Door, and the furniture
will be removed in q few days.

]. n. Warfield, the garbage contractor,
and S. 7. Bailey, his superintendent, went
to the crematory, on South Capitol street,
this morning for the purpose of making an
inspection of the plant. Upon their exam
ination will depend in a great measure the
future course of the contractor in the pend
ing controversy between himself and Mr..
Brown over the acceptance of the fur
mace. Mr.. Warfield could not say what
he would do, but indicated that if the
issue cannot be settled out of court, steps
would be taken by his lawyer to institute
a suit for recovery of the ground upon
which the crematory is located.
From the tenor of the opinion expressed
by Mr.. Brown, who was also seen, it is
evident that he will consent TO no terms
except a cash payment of $4,000, the
contract price of the crematory.
