There was much excitement at the
meeting Of the Brooklyn Presbytery, in
Mount Olivet church. IN Troutman street,
Brooklyn last night. when DR.. Jno. Fox.
pastor Of one Of the richest and most
fashionable churches on the Heights, ac-
cused DR.. Charles Cuthbert Hall OF hav-
ing written and promulgated doctrines at
variance with the Westminster confess
sion. which. among conservative Presby-
terians, is regarded as the basis OF faith
The significance Of this charge of prac-
teal heresy will be seen when it Is re-
membered that DR.. Hall has accepted
the presidency Of Union Theological Sem
mary. and will enter on his duties after
the formal election, which takes place a
week from to-day. The present incum-
bent is W. Hastings. who replaced Dr.
Briggs. as the outcome of the most noted
controversy on heresy in Presbyterianism
i'm the Church in America.
DR. Fox. who made the charge against
DR. Han. is pastor Of the Second Pres
byterian church, at Remsen and Clinton
streets. and is a Princeton man. His
affiliations are all with the conservative
element in the ministry.-New York Her

Arrested in san Tranci-co Charged with
Horrible Murder.

san FRANCISCO. Feb. 1.-The Swan
hilda from New Castle. Australia, arrived
this morning. Frank Butler, the Austria
liam murderer. was arrested and brought
ashore
Butler. who is also known I'm various
sections of Australia, as Iiarwood Ashe
Burgess Clare Simpson, and Waller, Is
a criminal of the most atrocious order.
He possessed the cunning of the demon
and facility Of execution Of II. II. Holmes
As is usual in such cases Butler is ac-
oused Of a number Of crimes which cam
not at present be proved against him,
although evidences of his guilt are being
uuearthed every hour.
IL is known beyond a doubt. however,
that at least two men. Arthur Thomas
Preston and Capt. Lee Weller. met death
at his hands within the past four months.
Butler was taken to the Central Po-
lice Station together with a varied assOrt-
ment of baggage. This was examined
by the Australian detectives and also
by local officers. and any amount OF evil
dence found TO confront him. a photo
graph. a plain gold bracelet. brooch
and "a ring. all belonging to Mrs. Weller.
a certificate of examination in chemistry
belonging TO Harwood, another Of But

10 Preston. who also suffered murder at
the hands Of the prisoner and shipping
discharges granted 10 Weller were
brought TO light
a pocket bearing the initials u. III. A
was also found which the detectives he
lieve must belong to another Of the muir
ders victims. Only two sovorcigns were
found in Buffers possession and II Is
supposed he gave his money away to
friends before leaving Australia
lie pcrsistontly refused TO make any
statement whatever other than that he is
Captain Lee Weller. Later he was taken
into the private Office of Captain Lees.
the chief Of the local detective force. and
submitted TO a searching private exami-
nation. IL has been found that Butler
left here four years ago. before the mast
on the ship, Star OF Russia. for Austria
liza. The Australian detectives say that
that was about the time Butler made
his appearance In Australia.
Captain Frazer, OF the Swanhida, said
that soon after the voyage began the
Australian steamer Talcott was sighted
and the second officer came aboard and
Informed him that murderer Butler was
n member OF his crew. Frazer knew
nothing about Butler. the murderer hav-
ing shipped as Lee Weller and paid little
attention 10 the visitors story A day or
two later Frazer. In looking over the
newspapers Talcotts mate had left on
board. vead about Buffers crimes. and
that Lee Weller was one OF his victims
That gave him a clew. and he thought
at first he would put the murderer I'm
irons. then decided he had IA long voyage
before him. with hard crew 10 handle
and II one OF their members was I'm irons
the captain would have constant trouble
80 he left Butler TO continue 10 perform
duties and kept close watch on him
He never mistrusied anything. and Cap
tain Fraser says he was the best sailor
on the ship.
