Sensation Caused by a Pastors Con-
fession.
STORY TOLDBY REV. E. ]. WELLINGTON
Makes a CIe5 Breast of 1t and
Wants to Reform.
NARRATED TO THE DEACONS

NEWARK, n. J., March IA sensation
was caused in this city today when it be-
came known that Rev. E. J. Ol1know Mil
lington. pastor of Fairmont Baptist charge,
had made full confession to the deacons
of the church regarding his recent dis
appearance. On March he left his home
here to attend the Baptist conference in
New York. That evening his wife received
a telegramsinforming her thai he had Inc,
an old college friend and that he would
not return home until Tuesday.
He did not come home then. neither did
his wife hear anything of him until last
Monday. when he was located at the home
of his father also a minister. in Reese
vile. n. Y. There he made a statement, in
which he said that his mind was blank
to him after he left New York and until
he found himself in Montreal. The Min
lister returned to his home Wednesday.
In his confession to the deacons OF the
church. Mr.. Millington admits that he
left home with Mrs. Dorothy DickerSon
who is separated from her husband, said
to be now in Chicago, and who left her
home the same day.
Rev. Mr.. Millington said that after he
ard Mrs. Dickerson left this city they went
to Montreal. where they registered as f. L.
Harold and wife at a boarding house. They
remained there over night and left hurried
ly when they received d telegram inform
ing them that they had been traced 20 that
city. He admits that the eopement was
prenieditatsd. and says that he was inti-
mate with Mrs. Dickerson for over year
past and that he leading dual life.
He said that sooner or later he knew
that their relations would become known
and that he would have to go away with
Mrs. Dickerson. and that he decided to
take the first opportunity to fee from the
city. He admits that he neglected to pay
bits that he had incurred. that lie could
save money in order to pay their railroad
fare to Montreal.
The deacons of the church do not any
longer recognize him as the pastor of the
for March p to take action in the case.
but. owing to the confession of the min
lister. it is probable that a meeting will be
held sooner
Mr.. Milington has refused to a re-
porter. saying he would make a statement
to the public next week. His wife is pros
trated over the confession he has made.
He says he thinks IL best to make the
whole matter public SO that he may begin
ever again and reform.
Mrs. Dorothy Dickerson. the woman who
eloped with the minister. has also made a
full confession to the deacons of the church.
She has admitted that all the statements
made by Millington regarding their rela-
,ion ars true.
She says that the reason she has admitted
her guilt is because she thought it would
be more sinful If she concealed the truth
and she thought 1t better to make a clean
breast of the whole affair.
Millington is but twenty-five years of
age. His father and his brother are both
ministers
Mrs. Dickerson had been one of the .E-
thusiastic workers of the church.

Normal conditions prevailed at the White
House today, and there nothing in
outward appearance to indicate that this

A few callers came in during the forenoon,
but no more than would ordinarily visit
the Executive Mansion in the regular
course of business
The fact that it was cabinet day con-
tributad to this condition The President
proposes to enforce the new rules and not
to receive even senators representatives
before 10 o'clock in the morning, nor on
cabinet days. Some have been calling as
early as o'clock. and the President desires
to retain the time between breakfast and
10 o'clock for the transaction of routine
business from the departments coming be-
fore him. Greater strictness will be OBJ
served in the future in regard to the dis
position of papers accompanying appica
tions for office. They cannot be presented
to the President, but will be referred,
through the usual channels. to the depart
ments to which they relate.
Crowd Not So Great.
1t is a matter of comment among the old
visitors at the White House that the crowd
of Office seekers and their indorsers has
not been nearly as large this time as it
was four years ago when Mr.. Cleveland
entered upon his second term. At that
time the White House was fairly besieged
every day for more than month. The
number of callers each day was several
times in excess of the aggregate of any
