Hugncs' Resignation Is tbe Fourth in Baptist Circles. DEBT 'AND MINISTERIAL WORK Is It a Menace to Good Results ?-Toplcs for Next Week's Stats Sunday School Convention-Live News of tbe Religious World. Church discord and lack of npprecla tlon are lven aa tbe reasons for the rcs.iwatkin of Rev. Dr. D. C. Hughes, jx.stor of the Jackson Street Hapttet cinch. iDr. Hughes came to Scranton six years ago and was the main cause In .building the 'handsome new church now occupied by tfoe Jackson utret congregation. The membership In creased, but there was no onrrenpond Inn shrinkage of tiho church debt, and wl.cn t'he trustees recently met and, could suggest no way out of flnainchu dllllculty Dr. Hughes gave tllwin no tice that he would resign as imstor. The minister kept his word, wnd will supply the pulpit tomorrow In the 4Vnn Avenue- Baptist Church and lias an nounced that he will not withdraw his resignation. This Is the fourth resignation In this Bniiiixt .llHirlct within a month, the Uhree others being ltev. Warren G. Partrldite, of the lVnn Avenue onurcn; Rev. T. J. Collins, of the Scranton Street church, and Rov. Hugh Guest, of lVekvllle. The summary man ner In .which Dr. Hughes resigned leuvt-s no doubt that ho felt ptiwnaliy aggrieved over the trustees' failure to gniprdo with the llnmncliil problem t'luit conl'iiMits the Jackson Stn-et church. The circumstance Is wn evldeiieoof one of a mhiister's .trials mnd suggests the question. "A church debt te how great a mennoe to a preacher's work?" Tho questUm can best be answered by preachers and church otllcers them sidves. but this lust reslgnutl.ru muy be wnsldered sulllclvnt for congreBtt tlons in gonerul. Two Sunday School Topics,.

Dr. W. H. Pearce. of the Elm Park church, of this city, tho WHkes-Rarre Record of Thursday says: "Some time ago the. official board of the State Street Methodist Episcopal church. Trenton. N. J., the leading Methodist church In that conference, extended a unanimous call to Rev. J. Richards Boyle, D. ., pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal church of this city, totake effeotat theOlose of the term of the present pastor. Rev. Dr. J. K. Smith. Dr. Boyle ihas had .the call under consideration elnce .then, atid yesterday announced that he had de cided to accept It. He will leave Wllkes-Barre at the close of the pres ent term, which ends next April, after having served perhaps the longest term in one charge of any fMet'hodlst minis ter. Under the rules of 'the conference no minister can serve more than five years in omy one charge. But Dr. Boyle -was called here from t)he Park Avenue church. New York city, during the Interval between conferences, serv ing the fragment of a- year, five and a half months. Had "he served six months it would have been counted a year un der the regulations and Dr. Boyle's term In Wllkes-Barre would have end ed last spring. As It Is. he enjoys the unique distinction of serving five and a half months beyond the regular term." Jewish Feast of Tabernacles. The Jewish "Succoth," or Feast of Tabernacles, which 'began at sundown on Wednesday, is In Its celebration pe culiar and of a character to Impress upon the mind the remembrance of the Mriv wnnderlncs of the Jewish people. Services are held each morning and evening In the synagogue tiut tne most peculiar feature of the celebration Is the fact that in some parts of the world the people actually dwell tn booths after the manner of their an cestors. In this country the celebration Is limited "by the surroundings amid which the Jewish people are placed, but In the countries of Europe and Asia the celebration Is often carried on In elab orate manner. In this country the booths are seldom so elaborate of con struction, though even here some of them nre arranged In a very elegant manner. The celebration does not re quire that the booths be occupied dur ing the "progress of the entire feast, but simply that the menls of the family be taken there. Often the family will have quite elaborate feasts to which they will Invite their friends. Coming, as the celebration does, In the fall, an extensive assortment of- fruits and vegetables usually form the principal Items of these feasts. . I'nlqne Financial Scheme of tho C K.

A break In Kaffirs, 8outh African) mining stocks, in London, slightly higher rates for sterling exchange and a hardening tendency to the money market led to liquidations of long stock ami) ait the slme encouraged the bears at the Stork exchange to fresh efforts. The result was a break of fca2t per cent., Chicago Gas leading. The slump in Kaf firs, It was argued, will lead to furtber liquidations of American securities, and this was partly borne out by the sale of C.UU0 shares of St. Paul for London ac count. Humors that gold exports would be resumed at an early date In case of se rious trouble In Kumrs were renewed and the slight recovery In the rates of sterling exehaime was pointed to as a proof posi tive. Tbe railway list declined anywhere from Vi lo 1 per cent, Manhattan and the Grangers scoring the greatest losses. The announcement ot an Import of $U0, 000 gold steadied the market In the last hour and a slight rally ensued. Net changes show losses of '42 per cent. Total sales were 241.310 shares. Including .19, 800 Sugar. 35.200 Chicago Gas, 27.8U0 St. Paul, 16.UM) Burlington, and ID.ooO Heading.

Happenings of Interest to the Stapel Trades and Partleulsrly to the Trsdo In Iron. Stsol aaJ Anthracite Coal. At the annual meeting of the stock holders of the New York, Onturlo and Western Joseph -W. Price, vice-presi dent of the company, who Is also vice- president of the Orand Trunk, in an address to the stockholders, said: "The great problem before this company and the other American railways is the question of rates. Unfortunately Amer ican railway companies are prevent ed by law from doing what the rail ways are allowed to do In Kurope. in Great Britain, for Instance, all competi tive trafnc Is pooled and divided on agreed percentages, the rates being under the supervision of the board of trade. This -secures stable rates, by which all traders, large and small, ore secured against discrimination, if managers of competing lines In this country were allowed by law to make such agreements It would be beter for the rallrouds and better for the traders, Inasmuch as the rate that would devel op the tratllc Is the best for both par ties. I venture to say that unless this desirable object can be secured Kuro pean confidence In American railway shares will remain In the present dor mant state. 1 attended a meeting of the Trunk Line presidents last Friday, and I feel certain that the effort now being made to secure better results Is the most determined we have seen. I have only to say further that events of recent date, which I need not par ticularize, nave to a large extent de stroyed European confidence In the published accounts of the American companies, and I would suggest as a subject worthy of the deepest consider ation of American board of directors that an Independent audit of their ac counts should be secured In the same way as it is done In Kurope. This might be obtained either through the addition of a bureau to the Interstate commerce commission (If It can be treed from politics), or by the employment of independent auditors appointed by tne Bnarenoiuers, which Is now done by only two railway companies in the United States viz., the Ontario and Western and the lenver and Rio Grande."
