The rtev. II. M. G. Huff will be pre
vented from entering the yard of St
John's Kplscopal Church, 3d and Brown
streets. If need be by physical force, on
Sunday morning, when he will go there
to prtnch at the request of ntahop Ithlne
lander, who nsKed tho rector of the
church, the Ilev. George Chnlmers Hlch
niond, 10 ijult the parish and turn the
keys nnd property over to the new vestry,
known ns the 'curbstone vestry," on or
before the first of the month
Authority for this statement came
from Doctor fticlnnona today when he
emphatically declared that he still Is the
rector of Ft John s Church, nnd that no
representative of the Uluhop would be
allowed to ect foot on the ground of tho
pnrlsh, either now or on Sunday.
"This man Huff has nothing to do with
the church and won't have nnvthlnv to do
with It," Doctor Illchmond said. "Neither
will any other Huffs, 'Snuffs' nor any
other person sent there by Ulshop Ilhlne
Inmlur "
"I Intend to have my vestry, the official
vestry of the church, present on Sunday
morning nnd the gates to the church) ard
will he guarded so that neither the Itev.
Mr. Huff nor any other of the bishop's
crowd will be permitted to enter. It Is
also possible that I may prevent any
member of tho "curbstone vestry" fiom
entering, ns I will not permit disorderly
persons to be In tho church. Once be
fore, when they were present, they be
came disorderly.
"You can sny that I would not oven
permit nishop Ilhlnelnndcr to enter tho
church on Sundu. My church people
have no respect for him and wc don't
want to have anything to do with him.
Ho Is acting mean und contemptible In
naming this man Hurt to preach In the
church, nnd ho lins no authority to do so.
Why does he not wait until tho courts
dccldo as to the legality of tho "curb
stone vestry." I think that he nnd hla
crowd aro getting afraid of tho action of
the court, and for that reason requested
that the hearing set for todn be post
poned until the 2!d. Whenever Bishop
uninelnnaer has any airty work to be
done he culls upon this man Huff to do It
for him. Well, one thing's certain, Mr
Huff will nnd that I am tho rector of St
John's Church and that ho'H never be
able to enter It."
Doctor Richmond then announced the
subjects of the sermons he Intends to
preach on next Sunday and said he was
busy preparing them. He snld that It
was probable that ho would talk of the
bishop's action In assigning a minister
to fill St. John's pulpit In his place. Hla
subject In the forenoon la to bo "The
Prophet's Gall to Modern Society." and
In the evening, he said, ho would preach
vW "Ecclesastlcal Christianity and the
Simplicity of Christ."
Tho Itev Mr. Hun will not attempt to
enter St. John's Church by force on Sun
day In event Doctor Richmond's guards
make an effort to prevent him from en
tering. Neither will ho enter tho pulpit
to preach, should he reach the Intorinr
of the edince. If Doctor Illchmond shows
an Inclination to force him from it.
There Is every possibility of legal action
being started within the next few days
to compel Mr. Richmond to turn over the
keys, books and property of St. John's
-nurcn to me accounting and rectoi's
wardens of tho new vestry as requested
by Ulshop Rhlnelander.
Following n fruitless search by Charles
A. Brown, rector's wonlen, and LeRoy
A. McDermott, accounting warden, of the
new vestry, for Mr. Richmond, jestcr-
ui, .ur urn purpose oi rormaily request
ing that tho church property be turned
over to them, J. Wilson Bayard, attorney
for the new vestry, decided to mako for
mal request In writing- to Mr. Richmond,
through the attorney for tho clergyman.
Tho hearing, which was to have been
held before Judre Ferguson, of Common
Pleaa Court No. 3. today, at which It was
expected to establish the legality of the
new vestry, commonly known as the
"curbstone vestry," has been postponed
until June 22.

HTHERE is no desire for a Local Option law in Pennsyl
vania by citizens who thoroughly understand, from
study or experience, that it is a FALLACY to expect
benefit from such statute.
HTHE FACT is "option" was already vested in this State's
citizenship, For last Fall there was local "option"
in every county for the electorate to support Representa
t ves either known to be "for" or "against" the sale of
iquors. In FACT this question was made the one big
issue, in the Fall campaign.
PANDIDATES for the Legislature were quizzed
whether they would favor "wet" or "dry" legislation:
and the people, in their "option" privilege, cast ballots foJ
a. great majority of Representatives known to be against
the then contemplated Local Option bill.
gVEN the Anti-Saloon League organ, The American
T ( COm.meutIns upon the sequent failure of a
Local Option bill before the Legislature, remarked: "The
tTTuZ".?2 st May." And
defeat was hardly to have been expected; The question V reSUk thSm
was made an issue in the campaign which elected the
present Legislators." To wh eh j, -r , .jj-J.
"It must have been known to the Governor that the Leg
slature elected last November was overwhelmingly hoi
tile to Local Option legislation."
JN THE face of these FACTS, it is a FALLACY to say
t fc"nsylvanian8 desire Local Option. For it is a
FACT that the men who voted against Local Opt on iS
the ast Pennsylvania LeglslatureVer, elected by thef
