THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-FRIDAY, OCTOBER G, 1890. ft V I. NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA CHURCH WAR OVER LANGUAGE ISSUE SOME WANT WELSH, OTHERS WANT ENGLISH. The Dispute Wnxcs so Wnrm Thnt It la Finally Taken Before Judge Woodward for Settlement Facts Brought Out nt Hearing DecUion Reserved. Wilkes-Banc, Oct. 0. The question of whether the minister of the Welsh Methodist Episcopal church on the Heights shall preach his evening ser mons In the Welsh or English language has caused a serious split In that con gregation. The church was closed to the pastor, an injunction was secured and now the matter will be decided in the courts. Argument In the caso was made today before Judge Woodward. Hpv. 11. P. Morgan Is the pastor of the church, being appointed by the Methodist conference, and ho decided to preach his evening sermons In the Englsh language, believing that It would Increase the church membership. The dissenting faction claim It Is a Welsh church, for the Welsh people and the Welsh language should be used In the evening If they desire It. The break in the congregation became wider and finally the minister found the church door closed anil locked against him. An Injunction was secured to compel the trustees to opciv the church, and the court continued It for a tlme.hoplng that tho people would settle their trouble without recourse to courts of law. but no settlement could be reached, and last week testimony was taken. This morning arguments were made before Judge Woodward and Hev. Mr. Morgan testified that the majority of the congregation favored tho English service in the evening. A former cinss leader testified that the majority favored Welsh. Almost the whole con gregation was present at the argument and the factions occupied cither side of the court room. THE AltOUMENTS. The plaintiff was represented by ex- Judge Rhone and the defendnnt trus tees had as their attorneys P. A. O'Boyle and D. E. Haxter. Ex-Judge Rhone set forth that those who opposed Rev. Mr. Morgan were In surgents who rebelled against tho au thority of the church. He asked the Judge to decide this church a part of the great Episcopal church and that the church should be opened and given over to the services selected by the pas tor. , Attorney Baxter argued that the Welsh church Is an Independent church, that the charter makes It a Welsh church and that Itev. Mr. Morgan and his faction of the congregation are the secedcrs. He asked that the court do not take away their rights of conduct ing their services In the Welsh lan guage for which the church was incor porated. Attorney P. A. O'Boyle followed Mr. Baxter and asked what the first Welsh Methodist Episcopal church means. If it does not mean that the services be conducted In Welsh. He read the sec tion of the charter which said that the Incorporators had the power to malco rules and laws of their church, for Its good government nnd support. He said there was no laws or discipline in the Methodist Episcopal church enforcing upon nny one to use any special lan guage, and It was unjust and arbitrary to force a language upon the people they did not want, nnd contrary to the charter which incorporated a Welsh church. XO COMPROMISE. Judge Woodward asked Mr. O'Boyle if he would bo satisfied to open the church until the ecclesiastical court de cldethe cae. which the latter refused and said that the Welsh people would then have no Welsh church. Judge Woodward said the sensible thing would be to have the minister go back, preach half In Welsh and half In Eng lish, and refer the whole matter to the ecclesiastical court. Mr. O'Boyle said a decree could be made allowing Mr. Morgan to come back, but that ho use the Welsh lan guage. Judge Rhone said that if Mr. O'Boyle's argument was right, at the last day at the setting of the sun there would be one lone Welshman found on .Sherman street, and that the Metho dlst Episcopal church would be pay ing for and sending n missionary to preach Welsh for his special benefit. Judge Woodward tool; tho papers and dismissed all the witnesses. METHODIST CONFERENCE. Appointments Made for Bradford County Stations. Special to The Scranton Tribune. Towanda. Oct. 5.

The stock mar ket today continued to show markel Indifference to tho difficulties us well as clgn markets on account of the war scare nnd money difficulties as well as the continued stiffness of the local money rate. Prices dipped at the opening on the rumor of an Invasion of Natal by the Boer forces and on the further advice In the Bank of Eng land rate of discount. But tho open ing prices were for the most part the lowest and the market quite promi nently set about retrieving Its decline. The liquidation of Londori account wns of comparatively small volume, sales not exceeding 15,000 sharei. In fnct, the foreign stok mark-ts seemed to take no very serious account of lie strained condition of affairs and even the Kaffir mlir.jr s'ocks, which would bo most vitally affect M bv the v nr, were quite firm. The market for call monfsy In Now York showed further relief from the extreme- stringency, though by no means on an easy basis. Today's maximum rate was 12 per cent., and It fell before tho close below the legal rnte. The undertone of the market for stocks was very firm. This wns not due to any large demand, even In the case of stocks which moved quite wildly, but rather to the bidding up of prices by those interested In seeing a higher figure for their hold ings. This bidding up process, hov ever, failed to bring out flirge offer ings, which fact was significant of the market's firmness. Another was the largo number of stocks not usually dealt In which were brought Into ac tivity nnd the numerous odi' lots which were recorded on the tape. The lat ter feature Is always indicative of the pres-nce of the bargain hunter, who Is buying stocks outright to hold as an lnvcsment; a class of buyers who do not depend on the money market for borrowed funds. There is undoubted ly growth of confidence that tho strin gent period for money is over. The demnnd from tho Interior for funds continues largo and may encroach on the reserve of the Interior banks loaned on call In New York. Total sales, 277,- soo. The bond market was very dull, In sympathy with stops. Total sales par value, $1,275,000. United States 2s declined ,. new 4s U. and the 3s and 5s V In the bid price. Quotations furnished by J. A.
