Trustee Theodore l.. Cocheu for keeping locked
the door of Trinity Methodist Protestant Church
at South Fourth and Rocbling streets. Williams
burg. was concluded by the ecclesiastical court
which convened In that church early tho night
before. The technical charge was gross immo-
rality. The Rev. John H.. Robinson was the
Judge and the jury was composed Of three men.
The trial was spirited at times, and particularly
when Policeman Leonard OF the Bedford avenue
station took the witness stand carly in tho
morning to testify that there was no breach Of
the peace on the night Of the annual meeting on
April 10 last by Cocheu and G. Emil Richter. as.
sociate pastor Of the church, Richter had &C.

" II there had been a disturbance could you
have seen it T. asked the Rev. Mr.. Hull.

LET THEM SUFFER IN SILENCE.
the Courts Can DO for This Uncomrortabiy
YOked Pair.

An action brought by Rose Leon for a separa-
tion from Joseph A. Leon was dismissed yester-
day by Justice Beach OF the Supreme Court.
They were married in December, 1895, and
separated n year later. Leon received IS. 900
from his wife Mt the time of the marriage. and
he says 1t was q marriage settlement on him.
The Judge says that, according to the plaintiffs
evidence, there were a number Of acts on the de-
PENDANTS part which would wound the feelings
OF the plaintiff, but they never reached the point
Of cruel and inhunan treatment. And quoting,
but not saying from whom, the Judge says:
such misconduct of either OF the parties, for
II may exist on one side as well as on tho other,
the suffering party must bear in some degree in
consequence Of an injudicious connection. and II
this cannot be done both must sun or in silence;
and IL it be complained that by the inactivity Of
the courts much injustice may be suffered and
much misery produced. the answer is that courts
Of justice do not pretend to furnish cures for all
the miseries of human life. They redress or
punish gross violations of duty, but they go no
further: they cannot make men virtuous. and as
the happiness OF the world depends upon its viz
tue there may be much unhappincss in II which
human laws cannot undertake to remove"

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Professor An
gell, of the University of Michigan, who
was appointed minister to Turkey by Presi-
dent Mckinley and was promptly confirmed
by the Senate, is persona non grata to the
Sultan of Turkey. The State Department
was notified to-day by the Turkish minis
ter that his government refused to receive
the new minister. The grounds for the ac-
ticn of the Turkish government are not yet
stated but it is understood that an old
speech of Prof. Angel containing some
criticisms of the "sick man of Europe, -
has found it's way into the hands of the
Turks. This government is powerless in
the matter if the Sultan refuses to receive
Prof Angel, and nothing is left to Presi-
dent Mckinley but to appoint another min
lister to Turkey.

DIED In A POORHOUSE.
Details of the Illness and Death of
Millionaire Sage's Nephew.

JOLIET, ILL.,, May 2S-As reported yes
terday George Sage, a granddaughter of
Russell Sage, is dead in the Will county
poorhouse of consumption. George was a
son of Elzur Sage, who some time ago
borrowed $50 from his uncle, Russell Sage
giving as security therefor a mortgage on
his home. In their efforts to pay back this
money Elizur Sage and his wife were al
most at the verge of starvation, and finally
it was resolved to send George, hopelessly
ILL., to the poorhouse, where he could re-
ceive some medical attention. The mort
gage was paid few days ago and yester-
day George died. George was twenty-one
years old and had consumption. He was
born in Channahon, and as he grew up he
helped his father earn a Scanty living for
the family. He was industrious, pleasant
and popular. But hard work told on the
boy. He was unable to do a mans share
with his undeVeloped body. Consumption
claimed him and two years ago he was
compelled to become a burden to Elizur
instead of a help. OVERWHELMINGLY the
father toiled along with the added load.
George tried often to do little work but
he was too weak. Then came the climax
when Elizur was forced to appeal to his
Uncle Russell for the loan of $5O-a paltry
sum to the millionaire, but q fortune to
the nephew.
How a mortgage was placed on the home
in Channanhon, how the $50 was, repaid
when it was due and, how the honest fam
lily yielded up almost it's life blood in pay
ing back the money, has been told in all
it's pitiful details, but nobody knew all this
time that the paying of that loan would
send George Sage to the death of a pauper.
In March when E,Iizur Sage was wearing
his fingers to the quick in accumulating the
money to pay the uncles loan the family
almost starved. Not a thing that could
possibly be spared was purchased. Still.
there seemed to be no hope Elizur believed
Russell Sage would foreclose the mortgage
on that shabby home with as little com
junction as he would crush fly Elizur
was at bay and the result was the sacrifice
March George hopelessly i'll, was carried
out of the mortgaged home If he re-
mained there he could get no attention,
medicine, nothing to soothe his suffering
or ease the approach of the inevitable end.
The poorhouse was the last resort: The
boy resigned. He knew that If he re-
the family His father could not keep him
there and repay the loan. So to the poor
house he went and there he died.

TRIAL OF MIR. sEARLEs.
Motion Made to Acquit the Sugar
Trusts Secretary.

WASHINGTON, May 28.-The trial of
John r. Searles, secretary of the American
Sugar Refining Company, to-day followed
that Of President Havemeyer, who was ac-
quilted Yesterday by order of Judge Brad
lev. The government presented its case
very briefly whereupon the defense, fol-
lowing the tactics pursued in the Have
never case. moved that the judge order
an acouittal for three reasons, namely:
That the questions Mr.. Searles refused to
answer were irrelevant to the inquiry; that
they were Individual not committee ques-
tions. and even if they were authorized by
the Senate resolution the Senate did not
possess Jurisdiction. The motion was ar
gued at length by the counsel on both
sides. after which the court adjourned un-
til Tuesday. when Judge Bradley will de-
liver his ruling. A very strong impression
exists that the judge will sustain the mo-
tion and throw the case out of court
The indictment found against Mr.. Searles
was very similar to the one found against
Mr.. Havemeyer, except that the questions
asked of Mr. Searles were somewhat diff
ferent The idictment recites that by a
resolution of the Senate a committee was
appointed to investigate certain charges
made by the press concerning the election
