happen to read your statements |
think il well that you modify that
editorial i'm some respects. You might
offend one of these little ones, -
thereby meriting the less penalty of
being drowned in the midst of the sea
with a milestone about your neck.
further move that you strike out
the heading of your editorial, Gun
ion of the Churches and substitute
therefor CHRISTIAN UNITY. To my
mind this would tend to individualize
the problem SO that one need not wait
on the slow action of CHURCH
COUNCILS but just go on and unite
and thereby Immediately escape the
consequences of perpetuating the
wrong and "sin' of these divi-
sions. SO far as | am concerned /
cannot delay this important personal
action to see what CHURCH
COUNCIL will do. | have, therefore.

keep me out is for the other fellow to
keep up the bars or slam the door in
my face. | must do my duty as | see
1T and throw upon the other fellow
the burden or sin of preventing me
from SO doing. Many years ago | pre-
sided at Presbyterian church meet

hold myself at all times subject to
the call of my brethren of all
churches to render such services as
they may assign me and which may
be able to perform. Oh yes, Mr.. Ed
itor, ] not only preach CHRISTIAN
UNITY, but practice it. Now | pro-
pose that we all go to preaching
CHRISTIAN UNITY, and you will
find that rs soon as tidings thereof
reach the ears of Church Councils
there will be something doing. These
councils like political conventions
have their ear to the ground. Let us
begin at the bottom and go up, in
stead of beginning at the top and
come down. Perhaps the reason why
previous attempts at union mentioned
in your editorial have been seeming
failures is because the advocates of
union began at the wrong end. Let
us not grow pessimistic over these
failures but make these stumbling
stones SO many steps to success.
Your suggestion of the process of
elimination instead of formulating
statements of what we believe is ex-
actiy in line of my own thinking and
practice. / am proceeding on that
line. My statement of the problem is
therefore CHRISTIAN NIFTY
WITHOUT A PROGRAM. This is not
only my statement of the problem.
but Is my solution of the same.

MERCHANT FAILS

Eugene L. Swift's Testimony
Merely Shows Jealousy, De-

his wife, Oleta p. Swift, guilty of
cruelty. but his testimony rebounded
and in the opinion of the court merely
proved that he was a jealous husband.
a divorce was refused the 1umberman.
but his attorney, George A Connolly,
was given one week TO amend the COM
plant and try again.
Swift's chief grievance against his
wife was that she went to places Of
amusement with other men and clan
destinely correspondent with them.
Among the men mentioned by Swift
with whom the defendant was alleged
to have gone out riding and to thea
ters were Louis Kraker, George L. Ross
and Martin Higgins. The lumber dealer
said he had forbidden his wife TO asso-
ciate with these persons.
IF my wife forbade me speaking to
certain women ] would speak to them

the Judge, and if ! ordered hersnot to
speak to certain men she would be
justified in speaking to them"
But this is not a matter of simply
speaking to certain men, argued At
torney Connolly. 1T is testified that
Mrs. Swift neglected her home and her
children while out at unseemly hours

stated that various institutions had
undertaken to care for Mrs. Selinger
for the remainder of her life for sums
ranging from $1,000 to $4,000. This
struck the Judge as rather high.
What becomes of all the charity we
hear about?" he asked. Il tremble to
think what would become of this old

BIAS AGAINST
THOMPSON DENIED
Grand Jurors Questioned in Ef-
fort to Set Aside Indictment
!. OF Eva Swans Slayer

Eleven members of the grand Jury
were questioned in Judge Dunne's court
yesterday upon the motion to set aside
the iridictment against DR. Robert
Thompson, alias Grant, accused of the
murder of Eva Swan In reply to ques-
tions by Attorney John Greeley they
denied having either bias or prejudice
against the defendant. Several of them
admitted having discussed the affair
with members of their families An
drew j. Gallagher said he had demand
ed that Thompson be summoned be-
fore the grand jury, SO that his side of
the matter might be presented. Satur-
day morning Judge Dunno will hear
argument on the motion.
An attempt was made to disqualify
certain grand jurors on the ground
that their names were not on the as
sessment roll. Herbert S. Marion, a
searcher of records, testified that Jur-
ors George J. Olivia. Isadore Levinger
and Lowry were not assessed. This was
directly contradicted by Olivia and
Lowry. Tt appeared that the searcher
had looked up the record of E. j. Lowry
instead of E. S. Lowry Levinger was
not in court. Greeley admitted that
the endeayor to disqualify the jurors
on this score had failed.
The body of Eva Swan was disin-
TERED by the coroner yesterday at the
request of Assistant District Attorney
James Brennan. who is, handling the
case against Doctor" Thompson, the
purpose being to discover traces of an
operation by a microscopic examina-
ton.
There have been instances" said
Brennan, when such traces have been
discovered six months after death, and

nation necessary in order to gather all

LUMBER COMPANY
TRUSTEES Chosen
Referee Refuses to Grant Con-
tinuance in Long Delayed
Ell Dorado Case

Frank j. synmes. Horace Coffin and
W. A. Ross were named trustees of the
defunct FL Dorado lumber company
yesterday. This action was taken after
a delay of six months and the refusal
yesterday of Referee in Bankruptcy
Armand c. Kreft to grant the further
continuance of two weeks asked for
by Attorney oscar Cooper, represent
ing the reorganization committee of
the California safe deposit and trust
company, which is principal creditor
of the lumber company.
The proceedings began with the
usual reading by Cooper of a telegram
from Attorney Rathbone of New York
city stating that the reorganization
was going along nicely and asking for
a further continuance. The request
was a once overruled and the election
of the trustees proceeded with and
their joint bond set at $4,000.
Referee Kreft said that he believed
the work of reorganization could go
along just as we'll after the appoint
ment of the trustees, as the property
would not be sold for many weeks
anyway and that in any event the
creditors would be protected and al
lowed to realize as soon as possible
what they could out of the sale.
Attorney ]. Y. de Laveaga. for the
receiver, approved the trustees elected,
but William Metzner. a. large depositor
Of the California safe deposit and
trust company. protested that some one
should be named who would represent
the depositors of the trust company.
The suggestion did not meet with the
approval of the referee.
The trustees were instructed by Ref
within two weeks the application for
an order of sale of the properties. At
the end of that period if the reorgan-
izers are not ready with substantial
proposition the sale will be ordered
made.
