"1 wish you would correct ft most
absurd and untrue statement which
appeared In this morning's Republican.-
said Alderman Millar to a Trib

to the case of hi. A. Bishop the Re
publican said: "Owing to the exposure

In court, action waa taken yesterday
before Alderman Millar In the case of
E. A. Bishop, who In January last
swore out an Information against three
gins for maintaining a house of HI
fame."
"The arrest of Mr. Bishoo had noth
Ing to do with the alleged exposure in
the Republican, and couM not from the
fact that the warrant for his arrest
was sworn out by Miss Annie Anthony
on Aug. 19. The constable waa not
able to arrest Bishop until yesterday.

The whereabouts of Rev. Mllner
Morris, who started from his home In
Nlantk-, Conn., for Montrose to con
sider a call from the Baptist vhurch,
of that place, hi causing no end of worry
to his friends and the congregation
that was expecting him.
K. F. Alden, one of the church trus
teew, came down from Montrose yes
terday to secure the aid of the police
In searching for the missing minister.
He states that Rev. 'Mr. Morris was to
have nttendvd a meeting of the trus
tees Thursday evening, and wired from
Now York that he would h-ave on the
train which arrives In Montrose about
2 o'clock In the afternoon.
A committee from the board of trus
tees was on hand to meet him and
when he did not arrive were greatly at
a loss to explain his failure to come
sa agreed. They met several later
trains, but as he did not come, and aa
thiy received no word from him they
became alarmed and Instituted an in
quiry. Inquiries at tho Hotels.
Mr. Alden searched all the hotels In
this city, but could And no trace of
him. A telegram to his wife brought
only a prayer to leuve no stone un
turned to olear away the mystery of
his disappearance. .She has sent tele
grams at frequent Intervals ever since,
anxiously inquiring I'or her missing
husband.
Mr. Alden says that he Is sure that
the Rev. iMr. Morris reached Scranton
In safety, aa he wired from here that
he came In on the 12.37 p. m. train, and
would be In iMontrosa at 7.4S o'clock
p. m.
Through Conductor ISmlth, of the
Lackawanna train that left Scranton
at 6 05 -p. m. Thursday It has been
learned that the missing clergyman
boarded Conductor Smith's train and
had a ticket for Montrose. Instead of
changing cars at Alford, he paid extra
fare to Blnghamton, telling the con
ductor that he would not go to Mont
rose at present because of the large
crowds en route to the veterans' re
union. He told Conductor Smith also that
he had a sister living at Chenango
Forks, a few miles above Blnghamton,
and would go there to visit her a few
days.
Wife Is Distracted.
Meantime Mr. 'Morris' wife Is almost
distracted at her home In Nlantlc,
Conn., as Indicated by her urgent tele
grams of Inquiry to the ftaptist people
at Montrose. 'Evidently the divine has
neglected to let his wife know whether
he Is living or dead, and this feature
also applies to the minister's dealings
with the Baptists In Montrose, who are
very much upset over the queer busi
ness. No trace of the clergyman can be
gained after he got off the train at
Blnghamton. As yet he has failed to
communicate his whereabouts to the
Montrose people or to his wife. Every
hour fears grow apace that something
has happened to the missing clergy
