REV. LlTTELL RESIGNS
APPLICATION TO HIS WORK
BROUGHT ON ILL HEALTH.
He Was Pastor of the First United
Presbyterian Church for
Seven Years.

DR.. Joseph Littell. pastor of the First
United Presbyterian Church of this city,
IN the advice of his physician. yesterday
morning rendered to his congregation his
resignation. to take effect July 1 next.
Mr.. Littell accepted the pastorate nearly
seven years ago. At that time the con-
gregation occupied the church at the cor
ner of East street and Massachusetts, ave-
nue. 1t had struggled for a long time
under adverse conditions and was much
discouraged In 1895 1t was determined
that new church should be built, and
on Jan. 1. 1899. the beautiful new edifice
at the corner OF Park avenue and Twenty
second street was dedicated. The congre-
CATION has. prospered in the new location
There has been an increase in membership
Of nearly 80 per cent. and the church is
practically free from debt. The last re-
port showed surplus in the treasury of
the church.
Mr.. Lftten was very jealous in the ac-
complishment OF this work, the response
bility OF which fell largely on him. The
excessive labor incident to the building of
the new church brought on nervous pros
tration and other complications which
have demanded protracted rest

A DEARTH OF POLITICS
LITTLE OF INTEREST AT HOTELS
WHERE STATESMEN ABIDE.
What Frank ID. Burke Thinks of the
Marion County Delegation-J. E.
Mccullough sanguine.

There was a dearth of political gossip
about the hotels yesterday. The few peo-
pie who sat about the Hobbies were either
doing read the newspapers and smoked.
Attorney ]. E. Mccullough. one of the
about the lobby of the Grand about
o'clock in the afternoon. Marion Clark,
Democratic candidate for county commits
sioner, was there too and invited everybody
to smoke with him. Frank B. Burke. who
is very much in evidence as a candidate for
Governor, drifted into the hotel In time to
get one of Marion Clark's cigars. and then
joined Secretary Hawkins, of the Demo-
cratic State committee, who was lounging
on one of the Office settees.
Secretary Hawkins and Mr.. Burke had a
long talk and when some one asked if they
were figuring on the votes Burke would get
in this county. in the State convention, that
gentleman remarked: I've got all the
votes I'll get in this county, in my vest
pocket" 1t is noticeable fact that Mr..
Burke Is seldom seen around the Demo-
cratic State committee rooms. John w.
Kern was not around the hotel yesterday
afternoon and Mayor Taggart was not
much in evidence.
James E. Mccullough. like the discreet
politician he is, appeared to know little
about what the Democracy is doing. He
said he had all along believed that Mr..
Kern would be the nominee for Congress
in the Seventh district, but now he noticed
that Mr.. Kern was being talked of for
Governor. He had also seen in the news
papers that Frank b. Burke was candi-
date for the nomination for Governor. Mr..
Mccullough was frank enough yesterday
to admit that he had no hopes of electing
William j. Bryan in 1896. He is confident
of victory this year, however He con-
siders that this campaign will be the most
important one in the history of American
politics. The question of Imperialism, he
thinks, will overshadow all the other
issues.
At the Denison Hotel, the headquarters
for Republican politicians, the lobby was
practically deserted yesterday afternoon so
name on the register that suggested
politics was that Of Enoch G. Hogate, and
that gentleman, Ii Is known, Is not here
on political business. He has been here for
several days attending meeting OF the
committee on grievances and appeals of the
Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows. Mr.. Hogate
will desert his committee work long enough
this week to attend the Fifth district con-
vention at Greencastle, where he expects
to take hand in an attempt to bring about
the defeat of James s. Barcus for the con-
gressional nomination Personally Mr..
Hogate likes Mr. Barcus but as he said to
the latter few days ago. he is unfor-
tunately located at the present time
Chairman Hernly and Secretary Bigler,
of the Republican State committee, were
both out of the city yesterday, but will re-
turn this week in time for the meeting of
national delegates on Thursday.
