lieve the call will be accepted. despite
the fact that during his pastorate in
Millville Mr.. Keigwin has declined Of
fers from churches at Fort Collins.
Col; Chicago. H.. and Pittsburg, Pa.
A complication the Park Church has
feared was the fact that the North Re
formed Church. also OF Newark, was
anxious TO secure Mr.. Keigwin. Last
night. however. the Park Church trus-
tees say their call Is first and there
fore they believe the North Reformed
Church viii wait until the Millville
pastor makes his decision on the pres
ent offer. Although the North Reform
ed is a wealthier church and would
probably be willing TO pay more salary.
a minority OF its congregation favor
others than Mr.. Keigwin.
A commission was appointed by the
Park Church last night to go to Mill
vile and notify Mr.. Keigwin that the
call was unanimous. He has inti-
mated he will accept unanimous call.
Mr. Keigwin is president Of tho Cum
berland County Christian Endeavor
Union.
Mr. Keigwin is the son Of Rev. A.
N. Keigwin, ID. D.. pastor of West

Attorney John Lynn Raised an
Interesting Point in City
Court Last Night
DID NOT PROVE THE CITY
IN THE CASE AGAINST CLARENCE
sHUMAR-THE CHARGE AGAINST
SUPERINTENDENT VANDERBILT
DROPPED-OTHER CASES BE-
FORE JUDGE BALL.

AOAeA@ oCASCA4 %~eNN~@~e
When Attorney John Lynn. in City
Court last night, moved for the dismis-
sal of his client on the ground that To-
cality had not been proved, he raised q
point that will prove interesting.
Mr.. Lynn represented Clarence Shu-
mar, who was charged with using IT.
year-old Maggie Morris for improper
purposes. The alleged crime occurred
in a cabin over Eleventh street bridge,
and the first witness against the de-
fendant was the Morris girls mother,
who testified to her daughters age.
Maggie was then called and gave evil
dence as to the facts alleged.
After all the evidence had been pro-
duced, Mr.. Lynn made a motion to the
court that his client be dismissed on
the ground that the assistant city So
licitor had failed to prove in what city
the crime had been committed.
In Judge Balls opinion. Market
street here" or Eleventh street here"
was sufficient TO establish the fact that
an alleged crime took place in the city
in which the court sat before which the
charge was brought. Mr. Cahoon coin
cided with the court. and said it was
an old question which should be de-
cided now for all. The court continued
the case until tomorrow to allow au-
thorities on the subject to he cited.
William ]. Denney, charged with a
similar offense as that OF Shumar's was
dismissed for lack OF evidence.

liquors TO minors. Christian PloesseT

RAILWAY CASE DROPPED.
Superintendent Harvey B. Vande-
grift, OF the Wilmington City Railway
Company, was charged with violating
a city ordinance by opening up street.
for the purpose Of laying street rail
way tracks without permit.
Willard Salisbury, Jr., who repTo
sented him, entered plea of not guilty
and asked that the case be postponcC
until the suits pending in the courts
be decided. At the suggestion of As
sistant City Solicitor Cahoon, the cas-,
was retired. In giving his decision
Judge Ball said: This court does no
want to be reversed by the Suprem
Court OF the United States. The cas-
is retired" 1t can now be called up q
the pleasure OF the court.
