TILE FACTS IN THE CASE.

Now that the furry over the claim OF
the Methodist Book Concern, recently
allowed by Congress. has for the ume
being subsidized, few words from the
standpolnt of n disintercs,ed newspaper
may not be amiss. We have no dispose
lion TO make comments, but there are
some interesting facts in this connection
10 which we direct attention.
During the war the Methodist Church
had a printing cstablishent in Nashville.
which was used in printing church HI
craturc. The city OF Nashville smren-
dered TO the Federal Government with
the understanding that all business con-
Germs in the city would be protected
Rut contrary 20 agreement, the Metho-
dist printing works were seized by the
Government and used for year or two
I'm doing Government work The plant
which was a costly one was damaged
a. &c claimed. 10 tho extent OF S2SS0oO'
and after the war the Book Concern
petitloned Congress 10 allow its claim to
shat amount
For thirty-three years representatives
Of the church regularly presented this
claim. and appealed TO Congress TO pay
#. but for one reason or another it was
never allowed. It was never denied. and
# is not denied. that it is d perfectly just
claim. But for all that the church was
unable to collec: IT, Finally the agents
of the Book Concern. Messrs Barbcc and
smith. secured the services Of Major
Stahlman. who was as competent as any
professional lobbyist and believing that
ne had a difficult job before him. and
knowing that he would have to devote
much Of his time and money to the prose-
cution of the claim. they agreed to give
him So per cent of the whole amount in
the event Of his success.
Up 10 this time nothing wrong had
been done, granting that Barbee and
Smith were authorized 10 make the deal.
It was no reflection upon the church but
rather upon Congress that it was nee
essary TO employ a representative ana
to pay Him such an exorbitant lee in
order to collect a just claim.
But members of the Senate have pro-
tested that they were deceived; that
they made inquiry both Of Stahlman ana
of Barbee and Smith. and were assured
by them that the whole sum would 30 TO
the church and nothing to attorneys and
lobbyists The Senators do not deny that
the claim was just. and do not intimate
that they voted for it as a donation to the
church. Their complaint IS that the
money was obtained under fase pre-
fences.
An investigation has been ordered. to
which the representatives OF the church.
as was TO be expected readily assent.
These representatives say that they are
satisfied that Barbee and Smith did not
intend to deceive the Senate. and ask
that the public reserve ifs judgment until
al the facts have been brought out IN
the investigation.
such is a brief statement Of the facts.
from which # is clear that the Metho-
dist Church is in no way in no way in
volved in the alleged deception. and SO
far from receiving money that did not
belong to it, has not thanks to the
peculiar ways Of Congress, received
within 10000 Of its own.

Mr.. CREW UNSUCCESSFUL.
His Vaudeville Ventures Prove Finan-
Cial Failures.


The progress of the vaudeville season
i'm and around Richmond, SD far as It re-
lates 90 two attractions, is likely 10 be
temporarily impeded on account OF the
financial disaster which has befalen Mr..
j. II. Crew, who has been IN charge Of
the performances az Forest Hill Park,
and the jefferson Hotel Roof Garden.
Mr.. Crew took charge of both Of these
places at the beginning of the summer,
with the intention Of running them
through the entire season, and booked
- number Of good companies. Lack OF
experience and bad weather, however,
initiated against him, and the prospects
now are that the two places VIII pass into
other hands.
Yesterday morning two Of the members
Of the company performing at Forest
Hi Park called upon Capt Andrew PiZ-
Zini and informed him that they were IN
a very unpleasant condition, that they
We're unable to find Mr.. Crew, and had
received no money for their services.
They requested Capt. PizZint 60 allow
them to conduct the performances az
Forest Hi during the coming week IN
order TO accumulate sufficient money 10
pay their board al the Imperial Hotel
and 20 get OUT OF town.
Capt. Plzzt replied that he saw, no
objection 10 Wis plan. Yesterday after
noon he receiled a phone message from
the Imperial a6klng him would IL be con-
venient for him 20 come down 20 tnat
place with a view to making arrange
ments for a permanent contract lie an
swered that he would consider the ques-
ton Monday.
Last night a message was received from
Mr crew by a gentleman at the Imperial
Hotel. stating that he was sick In bed
at his residence. No. 4l3 north Thirty
third street. IL is presumed that as soon
as he Is able he will straighten mp his
affairs 10 the satisfaction Of all con-
cerncd.
Mr.. Crews edihculties may cause a
cessation OF tho performances NJ the JET
fars0n Roof Garden for several days but
10 will be reopened later. most likely un-
der a new management.
