There IS nothing else known which will

TITLE PROTECTED
FROM JUDGMENTS
Opinion Submitted by Cor
pOration Counsel.
LAND CONDEMNED FOR ALLEY
Claims Against Owners Do Not Follow
Transfer of Land, Says
the Attorney.

The title Of the District of CoIunb,a
to any land secured by condemnation
Proceedings is unassailable even when.
at the time of condemnation. there are
judgments of record in the District SUI
pIeme Court against the land in que,
ton.
This is the opinion submitted to the
District Commissioners by Assistant
Corporation Counsel A. L. Sinclair. who
was asked by the District Auditor to
decide the effectiveness of the Dis
lricts title to a portion of land in
square 500 which was condemned by a
lnarshal's jury TO be used for opening
an alley through the square mentioned
but which. it was afterward found,
was incumbered by Judgments amount
ing to much more than the 500 viii n
was awarded by the jury as damages
to the owner for the condemnation.
Will Get Clear Title.
Mr.. Sinclair says that. as soon as
the District shall pay to the owner %
the incumbered land the amount of the
damages it will assume complete ow =
ership of the property DISCHARGED from
the lien Of the judgments against it,
n-quOting from a leading case on the
subject, he says the opinion Of the
court was:
|, There is no provision for ASSESSING
thc value of the interest Of the OWL
ers subject to the lien of judgments,
o. for retaining any part Of the value
Of the land as indemnity against such
Judgments The whole value must be
paid to the owners, or deposited n
bank, and the owners are left TO pay
their own debts.
Nature Of Proceedings.
AIR Sinclair explains that the sec
lions OF the code. under which the land
in question was condemned. show that
only proceedings against the owners Of
the land were contemplated. This be-
ing the case. he says. the money Shouts
De paid to the owners. and the judy
ments disregarded as the judgmell

This opinion is regarded as the most

FORMER WASHINGTON
CLERGYMAN HONORED
Bishop Wilson Was Associated With Foundry Church in
Troubles Attending Sale of Property and Consolidation

The Rev. DR.. Luther B. Wilson, who
yesterday was elected Bishop by the
General Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church at Los Angeles. was
for a number Of years engaged in pas
tOral work in Washington. He came to
this city from Baltimore. as pastor Of
Wesley Chapel, which post he held for
three years. He was then made pre-
siding elder of the Washington district
After serving a full term in this capacity
he was given the pastorate Of Foundry
Church, taking the place of the Rev.
Lucien Clarke. who became presiding
elder
1t was when DR.. Wilson was pastor Of
Foundry Church that the reported dis
sensions among the congregation of that
body arose and almost rent the congre-
cation in twain. DIR. Wilson had strong
friends among the Methodists Of Wash
ington and when his term as presiding
elder was up they were exceedingly anx-
ious that the conference should keep
him in the city. There was no vacancy
Of any Importance, but after a great
deal of consideration on the part of the
bishops. DR.. Clarke was made presiding
elder and DR.. Wilson was given mis- place
at Foundry.

Many of the Foundry congregation.

like the idea of losing DR.. Clarke. and
resented DR.. Wilson being made pastor,
feeling that DR.. Clarke was sacrificed
for DR.. Wilson. even though the former
was made presiding elder. II was about
this time that the question OF selling
Foundry Church and consolidating with
st. Pauls Church. came up. Foundry
was divided upon this question, and q
majority. It is said. were opposed to
DR.. Wilson. After the church was sold
the congregation went TO worship in
the chapel Of Columbian University
This arrangement did not meet with the
approval Of the larger portion OF the
congregation. but still they could not
agree upon the consolidation question.

BUFFALO, n. Y, May FIT has been
evident from the first that the Buffalo
Assembly will make history for the Pres
byterian Church. as matters of great
Importance are being considered. If it
keeps up the pace set In the opening days
1t will go down into history as one of the
most important in the history OF the de-
nomination.
A part of yesterdays delivcrances, es-
pecially that part which swept away
many Of the prejudices that have long
existed between the Church North and
South. will be greeted the world around
as a decided advance, and TO thousands
it will be living and practical; sign of
the union of the various branches OF the
Presbyterian Church.
The resolution, which was passed with
n shout and celebrated by the singing
of "Blest Be the Tie that Binds was
offered by the Rev. DR.. Ternis s. Ham
lin. of Washington. 1t was regarded as
the most significant resolution of its
kind passed by the assembly since the
civil war. The resolution follows:
Text of Resolution.
Resolved That this general assembly
OF the Presbyterian Church in the
United States of America hereby remove
all aspersions and charges of any and
every kind made by previous assemblies
rejecting on the Christian character Of
the Presbyterian Church in the United
States: and is ready at any time to con-
fer on the subject Of closer relations
whenever such conference shall be agree
able to the general assembly of the
Presbyterian Church in the United
States"
1t was also provided that the resoIu-
ton be at once telegraphed to the as
sembly OF the Southern church now in
session at Mobile.
President Francis L. Patten seconded
the resolution. but Judge Robert a. Will
son, Of Philadelphia. moved its refer
ence TO a committee. This action was
vigorously opposed by Dr. Hamlin. who
contended that the force of the action
would be lost were 1t not spontaneous.
The assembly was impatient OF delay
and kept crying forth fits desire for i'm
mediate action.

Republicans
Still in a Deadlock
Futile Attempt Made to Bring About Some
Result--Convention Tables Representa-
tive FuIIeF'se Resolution

SPRINGFIELD. Ills, May ia gen
eral split up in lines occurred in the
Republican State convention this morn
ing on question Of procedure to break
the deadlock.
As soon as the convention came to
order at 1917, Representative Fuller Of
fered a resolution that after the pres
ent session the convention suspend vot-
ing on governor, and proceed to nOmi-
nate the other officers, aftei which the
convention shall return TO the COVER
nor.
The chair granted a roll call on the
demand of the Yates and Deneen men.
The Lowden men in Cook county. joined
with Deneen and Yates in voting no. -
and the resolution was lost by the over
whelming vote Of 3u ayes to 1,201
noes.
The chairman than ordered q roll call
on the nomination for governor
The forty-eighth ballot showed no
changes-Yates, 4S6; Deneen. 432; Low
den. 397; Hanlin. III; Warner, Il; Sher-
man. .: Pierce, 80.
The forty-ninth ballot saw some Of
result: Yates, 4ST; LOwden 399; Deneen,
391: Hamlin, III: Warner, SO: Sherman.
~; Pierce. %.
The convention has practically be-
come a legislative body through the
agreement entered into by Governor
Yates and the LOwden and Deneen
forces.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1904-05-19

The governor. realizing the strain on
the delegates favored the suggestion
made that three sessions be held daily.
beginning at 10 o'clock each morning.
each session lasting through three roll
calls. Adjournment would then be
taken for dinner. and on reassembling
at p. m, if no choice was made in the
next three ballots. adjournment sho.ld
again be taken until p. m, and So on
until a settlement was reached.
= his, the governor said, would enaD ole
tie delegates 10 secure regular meals
and Sleep. both of which they we're
much in need of.
Another proposition by the governor
that the convention adjourn and let
the gubernatorial nomination be settled
by a Republican primary, TO be held
il. every county on the same day, was
not so we'll received by the other lead
CTS. Thev say that Yates proposition
has a string TO it.
The governor did not specify whether
a plurality or majority Of votes was
TO decide. Yates is known 10 have
ma tority OF the counties in this case
should see he had plurality he might
claim the nomination and the deadlock
would be on again.
The convention floor this morning
showed the effects of last nights exodus
OF delegates. Many chairs were vacant,
the delegates going home and leaving
their chairman to vote the entire dele
CATION. This can be done under the
ruling of the chair.
