DR. Maury was rector of st. James S
Church. Goshen, Orange county, from 1881
to 1887 In his opinion, as he alleges, at the
end of this time the church had come under
the control of a vestry consisting for the
most part of irrelgious men. He then
notified the parish that he would leave at
the end of a year.
The vestry applied to the bishop, and he
sent Dr. Maury notice not to preach sim
gle Sunday more in the church and to
yacate the rectory in one month. No
charges were made, but the affair had un-
savory newspaper notoriety. DIR. Maury re-
fused to obey the order, and obtained from
the Supreme Court of New York writ OF
certiorari against Bishop Potter.
Since then the matter has been the sub
iect of much controversy between the men,

RELEASED FROM PRISON
OSCAR WILDE IN BETTER HEALTH
THAN TWO YEARS AGO.
He Grew Fat on Jail Fare and Hard
Labor" - BimetalIic Commits
sionePs in Paris.

LONDON, May 19-To avoid probable
demonstrations Oscar Wilde. who. on May
%, 1895, was sentenced to two years inn
prisonment with hard labor for immoral
practices, was not released from Reading
jail, where he has served out his sentence,
but was transferred last night to Holloway
prison, London, under special arrange
ment made by the home secretary. He was
liberated at o'clock this morning. Con-
trary to expectations, there were no friends
to meet him. either at Reading or Hollo
way. The prison fare seems to have
suited him, as he weighs quite fourteen
pounds more than when he entered jail
For several months the prison authorities
have omitted the usual hair and beard
clipping operation in his case and during
the whole term he has had less than the
usual quantity of treadmill discipline. His
principal prison duties have been to bind
books and mark coal sacks. His conduct
has been most exemplary and his health
uniformly good. Not once was he COM
PEELED to enter the infirmary About five
months ago he became rather restless in
the expectation that his good conduct
would obtain some remission of sentence.
He twice appealed to the visiting justices,
only to learn that remission was never
granted in the case of the offense for
which he had been sentenced.
Wilde has gone into the suburbs of Lon
don for a few weeks rest, after which he
will resume his literary work. He may
go to France or Italy for few months,
but he says his present expectation is to
return here at late date. He has not
decided whether he will write under a
pseudonym or over his own signature. he
admits that he has several offers under
consideration, and says that so far as his
movements in the future are concerned, he
will covet neither notoriety nor oblivion.
1t is reported that he refused Gl,00O for
story of his life in prison.

CHARGE AGAINST BISHOP POTTER.
Attempt to Bring Celebrated Divine to
Trial In, an Old Case.

Ithaca Dispatch in New York Herald.
l called tonight on the Rev. DR.. Mytton
Maury. the clergyman who is seeking to
bring Bishop Henry C. Potter, of New York,
to trial on certain charges. DR.. Maury
spoke freely concerning the matter. He
said: Unlike the other churches in Amer
lea, the Protestant Episcopal Church has
no court of appeal above the bishop If any
clergyman in a diocese has a case for adj
judication he must bring it before the bish-
op; If the bishop is the defendant, he can
not, of course, be depended upon TO judge
impartially; if the case is brought before
the General Convention. it is referred to
a committee of bishops, and it is custom
