DIR. JOHN WESLEY HILL
DENOUNCED IN PUBLIC
lie Has q Stormy Time With
Socialist Who Debates
With Him.

HARTFORD. Conn. March 3.-Ths Rev
Or. John Wesley Hill departed for New
York city this afternoon after n stormy
time with the Rev. John c. Hogan, who
came from Chicago at the behest OF So
cialists to make charges against DR.. Hill.
The latter has been attracting nationwide
attention among manufacturers and capt.
tal!sts by his presentation Of their side Of
the sociological problem.
For nearly three hours at Unity Church
last night before 1900 persons bitter
charges and countercharges passed be-
tween Dr. Hin and Mr.. Hogan In what
was intended to be a debate but which
developed finally Into a fight In the rear
Of the platform.
Dr. Hill handed several letters to Hogan
during the proceedings and remarked
put those In your next open letter"
When Hin tried to recover these letters
Mr.. Hogan thought that he was seek,g
to get the documentary evidence which
Mr.. Hogan said conyicts Or. Hill Of be-
ing a liar.
Mr.. Hogan raised a cry for his Socialist
friends until the police roke into the
fracas.
After the meeting Mr. Hogan declared
that he was better pleased TO have the
personal assault" made on him than to
have received $1,000.
Mr.. Hogan read alleged afidavits and
y,
but Or. Hill rebutted by calling him a
traducer. a vile dlsturber Of the peace and
q liar. In conclusion Mr. Hogan said:
Il denornce Hin as a pious pretender
and low and vulgar priest OF mammon.
No greater rascal ever lived and he
honors socialism by opposing IT,"
Or. Hill said last night at his home IN
this city that after he had debated with
Hogan the latter walked out with some
documents belonging to Or. Hill
81 simply walked after him and asked
him to return the documents" said Or.
Hill. He refused. so laid hand on his
shoulder in a frinedly way and asked him
again. He brushed my hand away, hur-
ried out of the anteroom and rejoined his
friends.
HE told some one later had struck
him. but. OF course. ] did not. Hogan used
to be a minister but quit that profession
and Is now a socialist agitator."

THE cost OF getting ready for such a
