TO SUCCEED Rev. Carter Hein? Joncs May Bo Called Here. WILL ACCEPT RESIGNATION A Meeting of tho First Church Commit? tee Held Last Night, but the Result Was Not Made Pub After a lengthy session, lasting until nearly midnight, the committee appointed by the First Baptist Church, of this city, to consider the resignation of the pastor, the Rov. Georgo Cooper, I). 't?., tendered on Sunday, declined last night to mako any statement whatsoever In connection with the matter. The meeting was held after a regular quarterly session of the church, at which only th? routine of business was trans? acted. Thoso -fireseiit wore Messrs. Chas, H. Winston, R, S. Bosher. N. P. Cofer, W. T. Hancock, A. W. Patterson; Qeo'rge A. Haynes and John I*, .leffress and Dr. L. C. Mitchell. The gentlemen discussed the resignation at length, nnd adjourned t>;(?r I? o'clock \vlth nothing' decided, so fai as could be gathered. The report of this committee will decido tho church in Its course. According to ono of tbo .mem? bers. It Is possible thai this report will be made next Sunday, but not likely. ., ACCEPT RESIGNATION. WK??6 If Is Impossible thuS to get at tho actual facts in connection With the mat? ter, It may be stated positively that tho recommendation of the committee will bo that the resignation be accepted. No other course is possible ln view of the position taken by Dr. Cooper. It may ho stated also that the kindliest feelings ex i?t between the pastor and people. Many, of the congregation have been hoafd to express regret fit the coming departure of Dr. Cooper, who has served them faith? fully for the past eighteen years. A GREAT SURPRISE. ?, The resignation came ftS ah Intense sur? prise to the rnajon'ty of the congregation 'and to the denomination at large. A J few ?f the church officiala knew what ? was coming, but for the most part the Baptists of tli? city arid Stato expe? rienced ft dlstiVict shock. The matter was laid before the congre? gation at the close of the morning sof vlce. Tha letter of Dr. Cooper announc? ing his d?termination to sever the pas? toral tie consisted of but a few Sentences. H? referred In brief to his long pas? torate hero, and expressed the belief that his period of usefulness In this field was noarlng an end. He stated that the resignation was final and hnd been de? cided upon after mature consideration. No date was set for tho resignation to take effect. The time will bo agreed upon by the pastor and. the committee to which the letter was referred. So far ?s l's known Dr. Cooper has formed no definite plans for (lie future. He left the city yesterday to be gone several days, and hence nn statement from1 him could be obtained, Tt is sug? gested that he probably entertains some Intention of devoting his time to. literary work, hut tills is a more rumor {hat has received no word of verification. MAY CADI. DR. JONI?S. It was reported yesterday Vhiii Or. Cooper would probably after all not leave the First Church: that the congregation would endeavor to retain him and that he ?would reconsider. Th's. however, hardly appears possible. His letter stated plainly thai his resignation was final and It will therefore doubt loss be accented. The action of Dr. Cooper and the Im? portant relation the church boars to tho denomination causes immie-diate discus? sion as to who will probably succeed to the pulpit in the. event that it really becomes vacant. This ?h, of course, alto? gether by the way and has no foundation insofar as action by tho church is con? cerned, ?"till the gossip has begun al ready nnd It Is Interesting, Among the names mentioned there Is one that is by common consent the ono moit ljkely to receive serious coa.-i'tfcrn tlon. It can scarcely be doubled that the church will make a strong effort to se? cure the services of die Rev. Carter Holm Jones, of Louisville, If It has to choo-e a successor to Dr. Cooper. The congrega? tion Is much attached to the dlstlngu'sliod Loulsvlll?-' minister nnd hnvo regularly tor several years past, Invll'/i him to spend bis vncniloV will*1.? (horn., nn uvltntlon he ha usually nr-cepted. If there Is any hope of securing Dr. Jolies, h? will certainly be called. It Is likely, however; 'that strong obstacles will be thrown In his way .If he attempt? to leave Louisville, and this fact may block tho First Church Ili any movo It may destra to make.

Chairman Minor has adopted the policy of dcclilnlng to announce to the press thn names of the witnesses to bo examined by his committee from time to time, but the names of those to appear to-night, naturally leaked out in the course of events at the City Hall last night. The investigation is taking it most Inter? esting turn, and somo spicy testimony Is expected to-nlglit.
