DIR. HALLS SUCCESSOR.

-" may W.
cuPy His Pulpit.
New York, Sept. l2.-The Rev. DR.. Pey-
ton H. Hoge, of Wilmington, n. C., who is
regarded as the probable successor of the
Rev. DR.. John Hall as pastor of the
wealthy Fifth Avenue Presbyterian
Church, preached 10 the congregation of
that church yesterday morning
II is believed by many that DR.. Hoge
has been finally decided upon by the trus-
tees as the future active pastor of the
church, but no call could be extended TO
him until after the meeting of the trus-
teees in October.
If DR.. Hall is replaced the event will be
the climax Of troubles in the church which
began with DR.. Halls championship last
year of Hermann Warzawiak, the con-
verted Jew. who, under DR.. Halls tute-
lage, conducted missions among Jews in
this city. When the session dismissed
WarsZa wiak from membership DR.. Hall
stoutly maintained that nothing had been
proved against his protege, and that he
would stand by him.
Friction between the pastor and his
trustees ensued, and on January last
DR.. Hall resigned his pastorate. He sub
seuuently withdrew his resignation In
February the board of trustees resigned
and later the elders followed suit Their
successors were elected

There is no doubt that popular opinion
favors an investigation of the army scan
dals by a board composed of regular
army officers exclusively, urged by
leading Republican newspaper. In the re-
port of such a board there would be
every confidence. At West Point men are
taught how TO form camps in order to
prevent epidemics of disease and in a
manner to provide for the reasonable
comfort of the men. They are required
to study the problems of transportation
that troops may never be deprived of
supplies necessary not only TO their
health, but their very existence. They
are made to acquaint themselves with
the resources of the nation. In short
with their knowledge gained by study
and experience, they are able to tell who
is to blame and to what degree for the
wrecking, of an army. They are mostly
free from party entanglements and can
have no purpose in shielding the guilty.
OF course, the President may pursue any
course he will to discover what he wants
to know-but the people are not TO be de-
luded and hoodwinked this time. They
want the truth and all of it and they will
have 1t or they will punish those who fail
to give the truth at their command.

A Generous Giver.

The gift of Oliver II. Payne of mil
lion and a half to found a medical col
lege. to be under the direction Of Cor
nell University and to be located in
New York City. is another instance of
the good use of his money by rich
man. Not that there is a crying need
of more medical colleges in America
on the contrary, there are enough now
to be a curse to the profession-but
there is necessity for large and inde-
pendent institutions that will starye
out the many cheap schools throughout
the country. Where the establishment
depends entirely on the fees of students
for support. il cannot maintain the
highest standard of proficiency unless
il happens to be one of the few great
schools Throughout the West nearly
every considerable town must have its
medical college, chiefly for the glory of
the members of the faculty Such a
school is kept up only by bidding for
patronage by means of low fees. short
term. and an examination that is not
exacting.
In the large cities a few institu-
tions are so we'll attended as TO De aple
10 demand more of the students, who
understand the advantages of dipio-
ma from such a source. The less, how
ever, a medical college depends on its
own earnings for support, the higher
il can raise its requirements. Already
some of them insist on four years study,
which is great advance from the two
lecture seasons and a farcical exami-
nation that made doctor of young
man only a quarter of century ago,
with license to kill. Mr. Payne SHOWS
the modern tendency OF the millionaire
to see his wealth effect something be-
fore his death. If Mr. Tilden had done
that, there would have been no trouble
about his great library gift to New
York

FLOATING IN THE HUDSON.
Bodies of Three Unknown Men Ar.
Found i'm the River.

New York. Sept. 12.-The bodies of three
unknown men were found in the Hudson
River yesterday. There is no clew to the
identity of any of them The bodies were
all more or less mutilated. and indicate
d possibility of foul play.
The first was that of man about for
ty years old and slightly above the me
dunn height. Apparently it had been in
the water ten days. In the right temple
there was a bullet wound. and on thC
back of the head long tear m the scalp
The second body found was minus 2
leg. which had been cut off al the knee
1t is the theory of the detectives tha
the leg was cut off by the paddle whec,.
of a steamer.
The third body was that of a man Fl.
feet eight inches tall He had red hal.
a mustaehe and weighed 100 pounds
What appeared to be pistol-shot wound
was found over his right eye.

Charity is the professional business Of
Miss Clara Bar on. Therefore she could
moi refuse the urgent request of San
tiago surgeon to help him out of a
trouble. Having rejected the offer OF the
Red Cross to supply nurses for the mill
tary hospitals at Santiago, Surgeon Cen
eral Sternberg skirmished about and
gathered up a dozen or so of charming
and patriotic Southern ladies who are
immune and sent them TO cuba. Among
them were Miss Wheeler. daughter of
Gen. Wheeler. and a daughter Of an ex-
governor of Louisiana They arrived at
Santiago 10 find that there was no place
for them to sleep or eat. As the sur
geon sagely remarked. they could not be
expected TO spend the twenty-four hours
of every day in the wards of the sick
soldiers. In his despair Gen. Sternberg' $
representative had the nerve 10 demand
of Miss Barton that she should make
provision for them. With magnanimity
that is simply angelic she did it, al
though her own Immediate sick demand
ed all her time and energy. 1t is only
when we consider the treatment of the
Red Cross by the surgeon generals Of
flee that the full measure of Miss Bar
toms charity can be understood. Only
a few DAYS before the son-in-law of the
surgeon general had refused TO allow her
TO have a cargo of supplies marked with
the Red Cross name and sign.
