CHURCHMEN ARE AT WAR.

The two trustees of the First Welsh
Methodist Episcopal church, Wilkes
barre, who side with Rev. II. p Morgan,
the pastor, are under arrest at the
instance of the six trustees who are
opposed to Rev. Morgan. The defend
ants are William r. Evans and John l..
Morris, and they are charged with for
chile entry and making threats.
The prosecutors say Evans and Morris
recently took possession of the church,
which they had locked up in order to
prevent Rev. Morgan from conducting
services. The windows were all screwed
down, but Evans and Morris broke a
window and gained entrance. They slept
in the church all night and were seen
by one of the other trustees the next
morning.
The discovery was reported to the
majority of the board, and warrants
were issued. The charge of making
threats is preferred because one of the
two trustees made the expression that he
would murder the other six"
nv Oiohoic 10 Suhetd b1 uHp utttl
mnation of Rev. Morgan to conduct
each Sunday one service in English and
one in Welsh, while six of the eight
trustees and many of the congregation
want all the services in Welsh. These
six have kept the church locked for
weeks, and Rev. Morgan has held SER
vices from the steps of the church.
Welsh residents have taken sides in the
fight.
Rev. Alexander G.. 10th, pastor of the
Russian Orthodox Catholic church, of
North Wilkesbarre, has brought an
action for $1,000 damages against Rev.
Cornelius Ilyosevich, pastor of the
United Greek Catholic church, of the
same city.
The action grows out of a peculiar
occurrence. Rev. 10th was presented
with large gold cross and gold neck
lace by the czar of Russia, who is at the
head of the Russian Orthodox Catholic
Church, and he cannot oi1iciate in his
religious capacity unless he wears the
|'o'o "nu h'Shl"eo, IL oc'hS uhc hdIn
insignia of his office.
The necklace became broken and
Rev. 10th sent it to a jewelry store to
have it repaired. While the chain was
being fixed Rev. llyosevich saw the
cross and chain, and recognized it as
that of Rev. 10th. He attempted to
purchase it, it is claimed, and on being
refused, he went about town, it is said,
circulating a story that Rev. 10th had
pawned his jewels, and on that alleged
false statement Rev. 10th bases his suit
for damages.
