GERSON'S, 421 Lackawanna Ave. SACRED SNAKE-KATUKS. Kellgious Sect in Oklahoma Dines on Snnctiflcd Serpents. Guthrie, Okla.. April 2. Considerable excitement exists In Oarlleld and Woods counties over the formation of a new and weird religious sect, styled the Perfect und Immaculate Hody of Christ. Over 400 people have Joined the strange sect and the interest Is In creasing. Meetings are being held nightly In a biz farm house. The preachers call themselves "sanc tified tlesh-eaters," and say they are proof against poison. At a meeting Friday night one preacher, named "Red" Shearer, brought forth a box containing four or five snakes. He al lowed the reptiles to wind around his neck and then bit several nieces of Jlesh out of them. These delicious mor sels he placed on a plate and passed them among the congregation, bidding his flock to eat the morsel and be saved. Twenty-five people. Including six or Beven women, obeyed his mandate. At the close of the sermons the peo ple gather around the altar and em brace and kins each other. Great In dignation Is felt among the majority of citizens over the Htrunge rites of the new sect, and trouble is expected. COUNTERFEITER CAU(i IIT. Etnsnuol Nlnger; a Pen and Ink Expert, Confesses III Crime. Washington, April 2. Chief Hazen, of the Becret service, lias received Infor mation from his agent In New York of the arrest of Emanuel Nlnger, the mak er of one of the most dangerous series of counterfeit notes known to the ser vice. Nlnger, It Is said, has been en gaged since 1879 In the manufacture of $10, $20, $50 and $100 United States notes with the pen nnd brush of such excel lence as to deceive even experts. Up to within a short time there has been absolutely no clue to cither the maker of the notes or the shover. It Is reported that Ninger has made a full confession, and evidence found at his house In Flagtown, N. J., confirms his story. The arrest Is regarded as one of the most Important In the history of the service. .: SINGERBECOMES BLIND. Mm. Buret flannel, of I.onlsvilla, Is Mysteriously Strleken. Louisville. April 2. Mine. .

In conclusion he said that the need of a forward movement is very appar ent. Advance toward the- prohibition of liquor is too slow, considering the cruel results It Is producing In the dis organization of social life and Its crime producing operations. A common love for humanity should arouse the church to personal duty along the line. The Christian Sabbath is in danger of be ing jjliie-traoked by socialism and avar ice. The decalogue is being trampled upon by the millions. He asked to have the charge reduced by making; a new charge of Lackawanna. There are more than fifty Kpworth leauga chapters In the district with a mem bership approximating 4,000. These reports were followed by a talk by Rev. Dr. Manley 8. Hard on "Church Extension." He said that since the society had been founded the Wyoming conference has given $28,754. The donations aside from that received from churches amounts to $5,850 during the past year. The apportionment for the coming year is $6,000. At noon the session adjourned. At 2 o'clock this afternoon the anni versary of the Historical society was celebrated. Dr. Hard presiding, and was quite largely attended. After the sing ing of a hymn. Rev. Bishop B. Carruth offered prayer. The reports of the president, secretary, treasurer and archivist were called for after respon sive reading. Dr. Sprague, the archi vist and librarian, was the only one of these officers not elsewhere engaged, and reported the receipt of books of In terest, papers, etc. Dr. Sprague said that his time Is so much occupied that It Is Impossible for him to attend to the duties of archivist and accordingly he moved the election of Rev. J. K. Peck, of Kingston, who Is much Inter ested In these matters. The first ad dress was by Lowell Harding and was a history of Methodism in Binghamton. The next address was by -Lyman C. Floyd, of Scranton, on some of his asso ciates. Among those he spoke bf were Zacharlah Paddock and Dr. George Peck. Mr. Floyd was followed by Rev. Henry Wheeler, D. D., director In the Philadelphia conference Historical so ciety. He spoke on the history of Methodism and termed the present as preeminently the history making period of this denomination. A careful exam ination of the legislation of Methodism for the past two or three decades showed It to an exceptionally fine and did much to give it an impetus. The contemplation of the future warrants the assertion that our posterity will pronounce us the history making gen eration of the church. The various great changes made In the operation and government of the church were spoken of as well as the resulting changes. This was termed the period of changes, the foundations of Method Ism being made stronger and deeper than ever before and the men who lived from 1860 to 1830 will be considered the par-excellence of Methodism. OFFICERS OF SOCIETY. The officers of the Historical society are: President. Mantey S. Hard; vice presidents, the presiding elders; re cording secretary, J. F. Warner; treas urer, I. N. Shlpman; corresponding1 secretary, C. A. Benjamin; archivist and librarian, J. K. Peck. The Veterans' association met at 3 o'clock and elected the following offi cers for the ensuing year: President, Rev. P. R. Tower, of South Canaan; first vice president. Rev. J. B. Santee, of Binghamton; second vice president, Rev. J. B. Davis, Camptown. r-a.; Bec retary and treasurer, Rev. N. J. How ley. The second of the series of five his torical lectures was given at 4 o'clock this afternoon, this one being by Dr. H. W. Rogers, of Drew Theological seminary. These lectures are more particularly upon church history ami are exceptionally profitable. The first one was to show how we have learned to know the people of Babylonia while the others will show how the history of the Babylonians, demonstrates In a wonderful manner that the statements In the book of Genesis and In fact all of the books of the Old Testament, arc true. His lecture yesterday afternoon opened with a description of Assyria and Babylonia and of the Bights and wonders abounding In these countries. The rediscovery of Nineveh and Baby lonia and the decclpherlng the ancient languages of these people which must necessarily be very slow. The greater part of the address was divided Into two parts, decipherment and excavation. The ruins at Persep olis were mentioned In particular and of the remains of inscriptions found there, and of the numerous attempts to decipher them. How many persons spent years in this work and how at last their efforts were crowned with success, and how independent transla tions of the annals of Tlglath Plleser I compared almost exactly. He spoke of the conducting of excavations In order to secure remulns of inscriptions and of architecture. The expedition sent out under the.ausplceB of the University of Pennsylvania and the excellent re sults were particularly spoken of. In closing he summarized by telling of the remarkable results of these decipher ments and of the excavations and of the im)ortance attached to them for every Bible student. BOARD OF STEWARDS MEET. The board of stewards convened this afternoon and began the hearing of the statements of the conditions of the su perannuated ministers. According to the needs of these worn-out gentlemen the funds are divided equally among three classes. ' The first will receive about $150, the second about $125 and the third about $100. The board is made up of a pastor and a layman from each district, as follows: President, J. C. Leacock; W. W. Corbln, secre tary;' A. J. Cook, treasurer; A. D. Decker, W. M. Hlller, I. N. Shlpman, W. T. Blair. Laymen R. J. Penwar dun. C. W, Burnslde, Christian Wal ters. E. W. Beckwith, William H. Stll well. - ' There seems to be a unanimity of opinion as to who will receive election as delegates to the general conference tomorrow morning. The opinion also prevails that there will be but slight opposition. The names of the gentle men who will undoubtedly receive this honor are Rev. John G. Eckman, of Scranton; Rev. Manley 8. Hard, of Kingston; Rev. Edwin B. Olmstead, of Binghamton; Rev. A. J. Van Cleft, of Oneonta. and Dr. L. L. Sprague, of Wyoming seminary. The lay electoral delegates will meet tomorrow after noon at 2 o'clock. There is no doubt that George S. Bennett, of Wllkes Barre, and A. I. Decker, of Waverly, will be elected, although other names will be placed In nomination. The Hogan Investigation committee' met this morning for a few minutes and again this afternoon. Mr. Hogan was present at these sessions. He told a Tribune representative Just before the afternoon session that as yet no charges had been preferred.- against him. He could not be found after the last session. The committee is exceed ingly desirous that -Mr. Hogan retract some of his statements or that he apologize. This Mr. Hogan absolutely refuses to do. He made but few state ments before the committee and In ev erything is exceedingly guarded, say ing that what he has to say he will ut ter before the conference where all can hear. He Is accompanied by a stenog rapher, but she has not yet been al lowed to attend the sessions of the committee. Mr. Hogan says that he has not changed his position In the least and Is Just as determined as ever to expose the existing evil. The mem bers of the committee are very guarded and refuse to disclose any information, Mr. Hogan, however, la not so close mouthed and talks quite freely In about the same strain that he has pre vious to the conference. . In addressing the committee Mr. Ho gan said In part; ' "After ten years of hard work and good success In my ministerial labors never having passed a year without a revival service and leaving every church I ever served to pay a higher salary when I departed than when I came, I was informed by my presiding elder .that he could not send me to a decent place because of my active efforts in behalf of reform and against brood inherited lies which have cursed church and state for. more than a generation. I. had not asked favors In the way ot appointments; I was not invited to meet the bishop or given a chance to speak for myself be fore elders In cabinet and I did not see lit to intrude the case upon them. Be cause of these facts and in view of the character of the appointment to which I was assigned I believed and still be lieve that I was made the victim of a partisan, malicious and sinful discrim ination, and I have evidence to prove that many members of the conference and public generally viewed the matter in the same light." In view of these facts and others he concluded that It was the policy of those In authority to encourage the li cense voting sinners and to humiliate legal preachers who stand hv the rleo. laratlons of the church. He wrote to Misnop Andrews and offered to take the appointment if ho could preach the truth on the saloon question. Bishop Andrews declined to censure the treat ment he had received and Hogan would not take charge. He felt the appoint ment to be an Insult, and now feels that his action was a refusal to be Imposed upon, and not a refusal to work. Regarding his sermons from his pul pit he did not discuss Prohibition in a narrow sense, but rather preached and practiced righteousness. He believed that church members and ministers should not leave Christ out of their religion on election day and vote for license parties and candidates. It was not necessary to vote the Prohibition ticket but they should not vote for a license party. The question is not will a man go to hell if he does not vote for the Prohibition party, but will he get to Heaven by voting for a. whiskey party. We ought to use the pulpit for the great work of a preacher of right eousness. I am accused of preaching and working for the Prohibition party; I am a Christian and Methodist, there fore a Prohibitionist. REPORT ON HOGAN CASE. The members of the committee say that they expect to be able to report tomorrow morning. Mr. Hogan has but little to say or do with the other ministers In attendance. He takes no part in the discussions or actions of the session and is present but a small part of the time. Last evening In connection with the conference session occurred the anni versary oT the Educational society. Addresses were given and there was a concert by the Olee, Banjo and Man dolin clubs of Syracuse university. Rev. Levi L. Sprague presided and with him were seated on the platform Rev. Hugh McDermott. of Kingston, Bishop Vincent, Prof. Albert Leonard, princi pal of the High school, J. E. Rogers, president of Board of Education, and Rev. J. H. Race. The exercises opened with prayer by Mr. McDermott after which a concert was given followed with an address by Btehop Vincent. He Bald: "The subject of education has al ways been dear to the heart of Metho dists. I am happy tonight to speak in behalf of higher education. We are as human beings surrendered to God to be all we can be. When a man conBe crates himself to God, he consecrates his whole being, therefore he should de velop his intellect. We believe In the public schools and that they prepare the way for Christian culture but we also believe that our young people should have seminary and college tralnlhg. It Is the duty of every minister to inspire his young people to go to college. I have thought if I should ever preach again I would have a class of those In tending to go to college. We can do a great deal more than taking up col lections for education. We can Inspire the young people by InBtllllng In them a deBlre for learning." MOOSIC. R. P. Crelllon, of White Haven, was a visitor in town yesterday. K. Broad head was a visitor in Scran ton yesterday on business. Mrs. Harvey Jacques, of the New Powder Mills, has returned from a visit to Mill City.' D. S. Green, who recently bought the property of William Monle, on Main street, has occupied It and has trans ferred the bakery to that place. Here after the wagon will come up town In the morning. THE WORLD OF BUSINESS. Wall Street Review. New York, April 2. Of the 153,092 shares traded In at the stock exchange today 87,(00 shares were American To bacco. The opening- dealings In the stocks were attended with the greatest excitement the first sales being report ed at anywhere from 95 to 81, eight thousands shares changing hands at the drop of the chairman's gavel. Between ten and eleven o'clock over 65,000 shares of the stock were traded in leaving less than 35,000 shares for the remainder of the session. The stock after the early advance of 64 per cent, fell to 89V4. recovered to 91 and receded to 89, which was the closing price yesterday. The Tobacco Incident as will be seen practically killed speculation in the gen eral market, but the tendency of prices was upward until late In the day when a recession of VfcaT per cent, ensued, in the reaction Sugar, the Grangers, Louisville and Nashville, General Elec tric, Leather preferred and Western Union scored the greatest losses. Near the close Manhattan on trading of 1,100 shares bounded up to 107 and specula tion left off quiet, but In the main firm. Naturally the sensational developments In Tobacco were much discussed. The action of the directors In view of the passing of the dividend lust December led to unfavorable comments and mem bers of the stock exchange were not at all backward in expressing their disap proval of the policy of the Tobacco management. There was some talk of bringing the matter before the gover nors of the stock exchange. Specula tion closed quiet and In the main firm. Net changes show gains of a?4 per cent, Manhattan leading. Sugar, Ten nessee Coal, Distilling and Cattle Feed ing lost a per cent. Furnished by WILLIAM LINN, AL LEN ft Co., correspondents for A. P. CAMPBELL, stock broker, 412 Spruce licet. .
