Moriah Baptist church, the board of deacons held a meeting for the purpose of giving out the true facts. This statement is made by the deacons and trustees. The congregation of the Mt. Moriah church has voted to dismiss the pastor, Rev. C. C. Goins, and he refuses to give up his place. "Albert Conrad is chairman of the board of deacons and is one of the aged and respected citizens of Rich- ' mond. He has spent his whole life in organizing and supporting the church. "William Arnold, Thomas Doty. John Cate, and Andrew Walker are respected colored citizens. "It is the wish of a majority of the members, as expressed by their vote, 1 that the rastor discontinue his services. "The congregation has suffered in justice by being refused a vote at the regular church meetings. The pastor J has insisted on presiding over meetings and has refused to entertain any - motion to declare the pulpit vacant. "In the present trouble a meeting was called to declare the pulpit va- - citt with the result that the pastor - ordered the congregation from the church whereupon the members were forced to appoint a secretary and conduct the voting with the result that ' 77 voted to declare the pulpit vacant '.and 21 voted to hold the pastor. "The signature of each voter has been recorded and legal papers are in preparation for presentation to Judge William A. Bond to restrain the pas.tor from forcing his pastorate upon an unwilling congregation. "The trouble began two years ago . when an Investigation was conducted - after reports of improper conduct and the report of the deacons' board rec- : ommended the resignation of the pas--tor. A copy of the recommendations was sent to him. The church approved the action of the deacons ask- . ing for Rev. Goins' resignation, hence the petition filed in circuit court yesterday lor a restraining order." Charles Learning Arraigned v on Lazy Husband Charge Charles Lanning was arranged be- " fore Judge W.

WHEAT PRICE TAKES SLUMP IN WEEK DUE TO HEAVY RECEIPTS (By Associated 1 r) CHICAGO. Aug. 6. Material setbacks in the price of wheat have taken place this week largely as a result of continued big receipts. Compared with a week ago. the wheat market this morning showed declines ranging from 44 to 6c; corn was down 34c3 to 3c; oats 1H to 2c, and provisions lower by 10c to 87c. Although the rush of wheat to primary centers slackened as compared with last week, the volume remained far in excess of the corresponding time a year ago; in fact, nearly dou ble. Persistent slowness of the export demand, except when prices had un dergone declines, tended further to discourage bulls, especially as spring wheat growers appeared to be following the early marketing example of the winter crop producers. Heaviest individual liquidation was ascribed to a prominent New York trader, who was reputed to have bought at higher prices. Speculators Hold Off. As a rule, new speculative buyers appeared to be holding off and hedg ing sales had to be made at a disad vantage, the amount of pit transac tions being the smallest witnessed here in months. Credit conditions were said to form the chief stumbling block preventing larger sale3 to Europe. Rains and cooler weather had a bearish effect on corn. Large stocks In sight depressed oats. Provisions were pulled down by the weakness of grain and hogs. NEW YORK, Aug. 6. Stocks fol lowed an uncertain course during the week which failed to show a development of a definite trend in movements or speculative feeling. After two days of well sustained strength the market became narrow and irregular and toward the close of the week declined on profit taking and renev.-ed bear pressure. Trading was comparatively light and there were few developments of importance in the shaping of sentiment. Reports of industrial conditions as reflected in the trade news was somewhat more hopeful, but these indications were not sufficiently definite or general to be of great effect Improvement in railroad earnings attracted the attention of the speculative element and the investment rails were in strong demand at rising quotations early in the week, but subsequently sold off with the remainder of the list. Money was firmer. Call loans advanced 6 per cent as compared with the week's low rate of 3 per cent. Withdrawals from New York banks by the interior, which followed the decline last week, was largely reBnnnsible for the stiffening of tne rates. The foreign exchange market was firm with a pronounced upward move ment in sterling. An advance of four cents followed the announcement that Germany had made another payment on her reparations account in aouars, nnd that a further amount had been transferred to the credit of the Bank of England nere. Duffin Re-elected Sheik of lem lem Shrine Club Dr. Charles E. Duffin was re-elected sheik of the Zem Zem club Friday night. A business session was held in the Shrine rooms, Ninth and Main streets, after, which a buffet luncheon was served. Harry Person ett was elected asstant sheik; Allen Jay. recordei ; Sam Fred, treasurer; and Harry Chenoweth, William Edmundson and George Hamilton, trustees. It developed at the meeting that it is improbable that the local ciud wui change its name because a club in the east goes by the same title. At least nothing is to be done about the mat ter at present. Two Motorcycle Policemen May Be Put on Duty Police commissioners discussed the possibility of putting two motorcycle policemen on duty at their meeting Friday. No appointments were made but it Is considered likely that another officer will be taken on to curb motor law violations. The resignation of Lester Retherford was accepted by the commissioners. He has been a member of the local force for two years.
