Warrenton, Vn., August :>. it looks' us tliouKh the Southern Methodist t Church of this town is doomed to go j under* and if Hits happens it ""111 bei because of the activity of Rev. Dr. K .1. l'rettyman. presiding elder of the1 Washington district. In his prosecution of the charge against Rev. Or. J. O. , Knott." This was llio statement Of A W. Strother, trustee and superintendent of the Sunday-school of the Warren-i ton .Methodist Episcopal Church, i South, presided over by i>r Knott un? til he was expelled from the ministry and the church last week by the ec? clesiastical court in Wrisli'ngtoh. , Warrenton is stirred as it has not, been for years over the sensational' charge which resulted In the ills-j missal of Dr. Knott, and feeling is i hitter, especially among the congre- i gallon of the church, against Dr. j l'retiyman, who Is- held responsible j by many Warrentonlans for the un? welcome manner In which the town) has been brought Into the limelight. I Pr. Knott. when seen here last night, declared In words full of sup-! pressed bitterness that l>r. Pretty man] had prejudiced lus case and had din-1 regarded the verdict of the entire of-] llrial body of the Warrenton church, which believes In tho int.ence ot the pastor. w ill lie \ omitted, lie llfllcvcH. "I 'feel confident," said Dr. Knott.j "that if justice is done the verdict of the ecclesiastical court will be reversed by the board of appeals of the con fer? ine.-, .lust when that hoard will meet I am unable to say." When questioned concerning the i trial, which was before a body of thir? teen ministers, presided over by Bishop Collins Denny as judge, Dr. Knott was caustic in his criticism. The charge, which brought 11 the name of a young woman well known here, was sustained by the court upon evidence which l>r. Knott characterized as not piilj unfounded, but as ubso-i Intel) disproved as far as its essentials were concerned. ?'The prosecution and' the genernl situation wer,- prejudicial: to my int.-rest." he declared, cr/iphnil- I c-iily. then added: "nnd 1'r. Prettymnnl practically constituted the prosecution. Before the ofllcinl trial was ordered a ! committee ot ilftcoii officials of our! church bete met Dr. Hrettymnn nnti wen; ov.?r the entire ease with hint, j ?'This same committee later went to Washington and appeared before the board of Investigation consisting of I Keys .1. II Wells and ft. L Eultss. of j ..Washington, and II, m. Canter, of Alexandria, The committee Included three prominent lawyers, and those' knowing the nnttti. the evidence expected that the case would end then, but the trial was ordered in spite of them." i oiigregntIon in Sell t linreh. The feature of i he situation is that the congregation of the church has taken steps, through the trustees, to dispose of the entire church property. worth more than $20,1. rather than i remain undoi the nttlhorlty of Dr, ! Prettyhia'n, This property, including both church nnd parsonage, is sun in I process of construction, it is subject to several liens, but these, the men) ben of the congregation declare, would have been mnl had hot the?r pastor been dismissed. Now, how ever, they say that they will faro the practical certainty of the dissolution of the church rather than remain un? der the present system. Hr. Prettyman was here Monday to conduct the regular quarterly confer? ence! when lie was served with a court process notifying him that suit had boon brought against him by the de? posed pastor for alleged defamation of Dr. Knott's character. This action, according to the statement of Dr.] Knott's attorney, is Independent of .the recent trial In Washington, ami is based upon remarks reported to have been made by Dr. Prettyman while here previous to the trial. While Dr. Knot! diil not originate the civil action against Dr. Prettyman, he declared that lie had followed the advice of his former congregation and had allowed his name to be used. The presiding elder came hero Sun? day- to hold services, to be followed oy the conference Monday. The congre? gation fiiilfd to appear Sunday, and Monday the officials did not show up, so Dr. Prettyman returned t<> Wash Ington at noon without having met the representatives of tho church. IV. Knoll will remain in Warren ton for the present, hat seems uncertain .is to his future movements. TREATiES DO NOT MEET APPROVAL Washington, August ft. ? Friends of the Htllish and French arbitration treaties in the gehst? have reached the conclusion that it will be necessary to amend the cohven tioiiK in order to get favorable action upon them. This conclusion is the result of the consideration of the document* by the Sen? ate Committee on Foreign Relations, which has taken them up In vigorous fashion. After two prolonged sittings the commit? tee adjourned late to-day to meet ncnin Saturday. Moth meetings wire devoted to the consideration of the documents on their merits, the first in company with Secretary Knox and the Kcontl by th..* member* them? selves without the secretary's aid. Rspeclal obtlon was mad. to the provision submitting questions of difference to the Joint high commission of Inquiry, but fault also was found with the provision In the French treaty authorizing ratification by that government in accordance with the procedure required by the laws of Franc and with the condition in the Dritt?!? treaty ili.it matters affecting dependencies of Great Britain shell be submitted to this govorri mehts of sm-h dependencies, It was ihniiKht that the latter clause might lend to unde? sirable complications, white It wns feared that the former might hecessltste a chsnge in the method of proceedings in this coun? try, Despite all these objections It became evi? dent, however, that the power conferred upon the bunt commission is the only real obstacle to early action. Many of the mem? bers of the committee expressed themselves ns friendly to the general proposition In? volved in the trestles, nnd sonic declared that with a few ch.inseu It might be possl ble to get fsvorala action during the present session, especially if It should be. prolonged to any extent.
