r$ & J THE P1TTSBUK& DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1889. 3 f PEACEFUL MEETING. The Swift Union Bid Kot Withdraw From the W. C. T. U., as Expected. MRS. CAMPBELL-IS STILL A MEMBER Eeports Commended the Good Order at the Chicago Meeting. OFFICERS SELECTED WITHOUT A JAE The fight expected to take place at the quarterly meeting of the Al legheny County "W. C. T. TJ. in the Cen tral Presbyterian Church, Allegheny, yes terday alternoon, did not occur. The meet ing was attended by nearly 100 mem bers, and as one lady put it, everything "was perfectly .lovely." It was somewhat perplexing to see Mrs. H. C. Campbell, the ex-President,Mn.Jos. D.AYeeks, the ex-State Secretary, and some four or five other women who are known to belong to the non-partisan faction of the Union present, and to hear them take part in the proceedings. The most important business transacted was the election of officers to fill the vacan cies made'by the resignation of the County President, Mrs. Campbell, Vice President at large Mrs. J. E. Harrison, and County Secretary Miss Etta L. Clark. Miss S. E. Gemmell presided. It has been reported ever since the meeting of the National Con vention that the SwirHJnion, of Allegheny, of which Mrs. J. M. Porter is thePresident, was ready to retire from the County Union in a body at any time, and it was somewhat of a surprise when the result of the first in formal ballot was annonnced, and it became known that Mrs. Porter had received the second highest number of votes. WITHDREW HEE SAJIB. She refused to allow her name to go before the convention' on the second ballot, and Mrs. Agnes Spencer was elected Mrs. Campbell's successor. It was very evident, however, that the ex-President had some friends left in the county union, as four votes were cast for her on the first ballot. Miss. S. E. Gemmell was elected Vice President at Large, and Miss Mary Steven son Recording Secretary. The reports of "the delegates to the National Convention Mrs. Kate Devore and Miss Martha Mc Connell, were submitted, and were very in teresting in themselves. Miss McConnell laid particular stress on the invitation of the Chicago people to visit their city again in 1892, on the occasion of the World's Pair. Mrs. Devore pronounced Miss Wil lard's address an abler production than any President's message she had ever read. One striking feature of the reports was the man ner in which the National Convention was referred to for the harmony and good feel ing that prevailed during the entire session. As a support for the statement that the newspaper .accounts of the convention were very much exaggerated, reference was made to one of the W. C. T. TJ. organs, which pub lished daily accounts. This did not seem to be satisfactory to everybody, however, as one lady was heard to remark after the meeting: "I read the Chicago Tribune and Inter Ocean, and I received letters from people whose word can not be questioned, and my information diners very much Irom the report." THE ORDINARY WORK. The routine business of yesterday's session consisted in the reading of the treasurer's report, showing an overdrawn account of $12; the receipt and accceptance of the res ignations of Vice President Mrs. I. E. Harrison, Secretary Etta L. Clark, and Superintendent of Evangelical work Mrs. J. G.McKnight. It was recommended that each union donate 51 to a fnnd for the purchase ot a birthday present lor Miss Willard. It ''was decided to celebrate the anniversary of the crusade by holdin? meetings in the Smithfield Street M. E. church on Saturday and Sunday, December 21 and 22. A paper was read by Mrs. Kate Martin otrthe Plan of "Wort." She recommended that an effort be made to induce physicians to stop pre scribing alcohol. Mrs. Porter, President of the Swift Union, said after the meeting adjourned that her union did not intend to withdraw from the county organization. She said the only member who tiaa withdrawn irom her union was Mrs. E. Holden, and she resigned be cause she thought the W. C. T. U. was not doing the work it ought to do. UBS. CAMPBELL EXPLAINS. Mrs. Campbell was asked for a statement as to why she attended the meeting, as the question had been asked by several members in the general conversations after the con vention adjourned. She said: "I went to the-meeting to-day because I wanted to see the minutes of the last meeting, over which I presided, properly disposed ot, and because I have as good a right to attend as any other member of the union. X am still a member of the Sterrett Union, and will remain a member until I resign, am expelled or the time in which my dues should be paid expires, and am conse quently a member of the County Union. Mrs. Weeks attended the meeting in the interest of her scientific department, over which she is the State Superintendent. Mrs. A. P. Bryce, who was reported as one of the seceders, said the rumor was false. She still clings to the organization. THE EVENING SESSION. The evening session last night concluded the"W. C. T. U. Convention in the Central Presbyterian Church, Allegheny. Mrs. Agnes Spencer, the newly elected President, conductedthe meeting. The Eev. Charles Locke delivered an address on women as a factor in Christian work; He showed their influence for good, and what faith and energy they possessed and how much they could accomplish in the Christian work. The Eev. Dr. D. S. Littell also gave a abort address on national reform. He touched on the evils of the liqnor traffic and also the Sabbath movement. In regard to the latter he said that some of the corpora tions who claim that their operations are too ponderous to be stopped for the Sabbath think they are too big for Jehovah to govern. Mentioning railroads he said that they compel their conductors and others to break one commandment by making Ihem work on Snnday, and then the men" find it easy to break another on their own hook and steal. In conclusion he urged the W. C. T. U. to continue to do what it can In the way of national reform. The meeting concluded with an address by Prof. McClelland. To preserve both in dividual and nation he advocated four things: A stringent and better divorce law to preserve the sanctity of the home. Then follow the boy from his home to the public schools and have the Bible in the school to supply bis soul's needs. From the school to his work in the world and keep him from being compelled to break the Sabbath by having laws passed preventing work being required on that day, and save him from his employers. Next put away the temptation that exists in the saloon and drags him to ruin. In conclusion, he praised the W. C. T. U. as public workers, working as true missionaries for the souls of men.

Titer Would Rather Sell Land Than Bnj A Junction R. R. Rumor. General Manager Malcolm McDonald, of the Pittsburg and Western Eailroad, re turned yesterday moraine from. Illinois and was visited by a Dispatch .reporter in the afternoon. Mr. McDonald, in talking of the reported buying of the Eagle Cotton Mills and other real estate fronting on Isabella street, said: "I am not aware that onr road has bought any such property. In fact, the Pittsburg and Western stands readier to sell than to buy real estate. .We have, of courset bought some property at Willow Grove station, but it is intended for yard purposes. Any per son who is securing options on the property mentioned is not doing so fortius company." While the reporter was in Manager Mc Donald's office the fact was developed that the Junction road has become tired of taking their water for locomotives from the city by oontract and was going to use the meters in the future. When Mr. McDonald was asked it his road was going to join with the Junction in putting in the meters he said that, while he did not thins so, tne matter had not been decided. READY FOR CHRISTMAS. A Beantlfnl and Rich Collection of Jewelry, Diamonds, Pottery, Etc. Messrs. Wattles & Shealer open the first holiday season in their new and spacious store, No. 37 Fifth avenne, with a finer stock of beautilul jewelry, pottery, dia monds, cut glass, watches and silverware than they have ever offered before.

So it is with the whole stock, and special attention is called to the wonderful display of sterling silver novel ties which make acceptable presents for ladies, gentlemen and children, and are com paratively inexpensive. Now is the best time to make a selection, while everything is fresh and in unbroken lines, and at the same time avoid the rush as Christmas ap proaches. Rend Carefully, Because it is a matter of great importance that is presented to you. 2J"o doubt many can recall instances where trust funds have not been properly used, or where estates have not been wisely administered. To some, perhaps, it has been a personal ex perience. It is a surprising fact that so many trusts and estates are left to individu als, many of whom have not time to attend to such matters. The advantages to all estates and trusts, of an impersonal adminis tration, by an experienced institution are many. Thoughtful persons can scarcely fail to see this. A most important question to everyone having an estate is who shall be trustee? who shall be executor? Is it not the best way to decide such matters to place the estate or trust in the hands of a trust company? The Safe Deposit Company, ot Pittsburg, is such an institution, and is peculiarly fitted for such business by long experience, large capital as security and a management free from all speculative feat ures. Make provision for your estate being administered by this company and you will have acted wisely. Dlnslc Boxes! Bluslc Boxes!! H.

Testimony Taken at Yesterday's Hearing Did Not Fan finch. NOTHING OP THE OAK ALLEY SORT YET The parties fighting for a charter for the Ebenezer Baptist Church, colored, corner of Caldwell and Martin streets, had a further hearing yesterday, before Commissioner A. H. Clark, No. 77 Diamond street, Messrs. Brown looking after the interests of the outs, and James S. Young, Esq., for the ins. The parties in interest were too much in earnest, and yet, too grave, as became the subject under discussion, to allow of any funny business, but it is said, the music will begin when the outs get fairly down to business. At present they are spitting on their hands, and waiting for the time tor their inning to come, expecting to get down to the pomace when the outs rest. Each party wants the charter for itself, and the outs who helped bear the burden and heat of the day before the trouble began, do not propose to give up the ship so long as she will float. THE PASTOR TESTIFIES. J. H. Pryor, the pastor, was the first wit ness. He said the church services are con ducted according to the laws and usages of the Baptist Church of the United States, and people contribute funds after services. This in the way money was raised to pay for lot and building. Cross-examination It is true we have had charges preferred against our manage ment. I think James Ij. Phillips was sec retary in 1876. Eobert Hall testified he had been a mem ber since 1882. His testimony was the same as, that of Mr. Pryor, in the main. On cross-examination Mr. Hall said the title for the lot and church was in the Sus tentation Committee. Witness has been treasurer for two years, and has-paid money to the trustees for the purpose specified. The petitioners in this case were excluded from the church according to the discipline which governed the church. Ee-cross They were excluded in 1886 by a majority of the church on charges- of con duct unbecoming Christians, according to Hitchcock's discipline. Some were ex cluded for one thing and others another, Mr. Johnston for bringing charges against the church which he failed to prove. Mr. Prescott Were not these charges proven? Witness Not to my knowledge. Messrs. Carter and Johnston were excluded for fail ing or refusing to obey a call of the church. Mr. Ford was excluded for putting out a false charge on the church and pastor. The council was held in the Fi'th Avenue Mar ket House. The witness could not recollect how much money he had paid the sustenta tion society since be had been treasurer. Mr. Ford's retusal to obev the call of the church in the matter of the report concerning the minister and the sister. Samuel Smith testified that the member ship of the church was 262, and in 1875, when he joined,' there were but about 20 members. The church is run by Hitch cock's manual. Commissioner Clark Who is Hitchcock ? Witness I don't know who he is, except that he's a preacher, and, I supposed, a good man. EXCLUDED BY VOTE. Messrs. Morton, Bryant, Carter and John ston were excluded by a vote of the church. The witness since the time of exclusion has spent.three years preparing for the ministry, and on that part of memory's tablet some rust has accumulated. James Phillips testified that the members of the church are pretty well up on the manual, as the pastor reads it to them once a month. Frank Keys joined the church in 1883, and has been a deacon almost ever since. He was one of the committee who notified Messrs. Morton, Carter, Bryant and Johnston to appear and stand trial on charges of disorderly conduct and conduct unbecoming Christians. Messrs. C. Thompson and Frank Gamble told substantially the same story as did their predecessors. It was evident yesterday that the gist of the controversy will not be brought to a full head until the outs take the stand. Both sides have asked for a charter, and the mat ter has become momentous from the fact that the church has, after some 20 years' effort, succeeded in arriving at a point that enables it to worship under its vine and fig tree, and beside, the property is worth a struggle from a commercial point of view. It is evident that religion of some kind is meat and drink to the colored people, few of them having yet reached that stage of indif ferentism that characterizes so many people, who find a substitute in the club or the dis sipation of fashionable society. 'Glad to see you." is the atmosphere which surronnds the entire vicinity of the Stnrterant House, corner ot Broadway and Twenty-ninth street. N. Y.
