After the inspection. Mr.. Frazer was
asked for his opinion concerning the

HORSE BREAKS ITS ARN.

PAPER.
The Morning News advertises itself
in this wise :"Betters News, Fresher
News, More Reliable News, published
every day in the Morning News than in
any other Delaware newspaper" That
it did not say than any other American
newspaper was a piece of marked mod
esty on the part Of the News. In the
same column it made a little entreaty
to watch its news columns"
A glance at its columns this morning
certainly did not substantiate its claim
for reliability at all events, as the two
following paragraphs will show:

A LONG COMMITTEE MEETING.
PREsBYTERY's COMMISSION UN-
DERTAKES TO ADJUDICATE THE
CASE OF EXPELLED MEMBERS.

CASE OF EXPELLED MEMBERS.
A special committee appointed by
Presbytery to inquire into the stand
ing of the suspended members of Olivet
Presbyterian Church who have caused
Pastor Montgomery all his troubles,
held two long sessions at the church
yesterday, and did not get away until
1890 last night.
The members of the committee ap-
pointed by Presbytery, present at the
conference, were: DR.. N. II. Miller, OF
Newark; DR.. T. A. McCurdy, Rev. w. A.
Stone, of Glasgow; Charles Baird OF
Central Church, and Elder J. f. Mccoy
of First Church.
The committee kept i'm close touch
during the investigation, with the ses-
sion OF Olivet Church--Professor c. f.
Eastman, George Rommell, S. S. John
son, James Brown and Rev. T. H.
Montgomery. In the evening all the ell
ders were again called, but Mr.. Mont
gomery was left out. Finally a report
was drawn up and will be submitted Ia
Presbytery, but the contents OF this
were not divulged and can only be
guessed at. 1t is believed however, that
the report will favor the present ses-
siOn's action.
Dr. N. II. Miller will preach at Olivet
Church tomorrow and will formally
declare the pulpit vacant. Then Oil
vets congregation has but one linger-
ing hope-that the Synod of Baltimore
in session at Washington next Tuesday
shall set aside the ruling Of Presbytery
Should the Synod decide against them
fifty members OF Olivet will unite with
other churches.

adjustment can be made to-day.
There was no trouble yesterday when
the men went out. They simply quit
working at their glazing machines be-
cause on Thursday afternoon, they say.
some of them only made 20 cents This
was because a ruling had been made
to pay the men only while their ma
chimes were In motion.
While the machines are in active
operation the men who run them make
about SO week. Whom not in opera
tion, the men wanted to leave their ma
chimes and so home, but the rule Is that
they must remain nearby in readiness
for rush orders. The men do not want
this unless they are paid for II.
MEN COME BACK TO WORK.
To an Evening Journal reporter this
morning Thomas b. Monaghan, who Is
connected with the Wilmington office
of +. Blumenthal g. Co., said:
I'VE noticed that over fifty OF the
eighty men who walked out yesterday
returned to work. We understand that
the other thirty will return to their
places on Monday.
There will probably be nothing
more in the matter, ae workmen fire.
quently go out on pay day and remain
about the offices, as well as those not
working.
Our men are paid by the hour, and
for every hour they work Yesterday
was our payday

have had their grievances adjudicated.
