The twenty-ninth meeting of the Eng¬
lish church congress, recently held, was
notable chiefly for two discussions A
great deal was said about the utility of
the system of brotherhoods which Canon
Farrar has recently been urging upon
the English church. The general senti¬
ment seemed to be that a community of
clergymen, without family ties and liv¬
ing together, secured a great degree of
efficiency on a very economical basis.
The judgment of the congress was
against the vow of celibacy, the general
feeling being that celibacy should be im¬
posed only during the time devoted to
the particular mission With this re
stfiction, and tearing both the gates of
egress and ingress open, it was felt that

on a tatoskmary basis, presented a

city was starred yesterday
evening about four o’clock by a tele-
phone message from the Kincaid fac¬
tory that a riot was in progress pigress and,
asking for the police and 1 mtgeom.
Officers Shackelford Floyd and
Whitaker and Sheriff Connell were
soon on the scene, as well us
Dra. Kelly and Moore and a News
and Sun reporter. But it. was all
over before they got there, ami there
was nothing to do but attend to the
wounded. . -
Robert Ernest, the foreman of the
weaving room, was the most serious¬
ly injured, having a bullet wound in
the bade of the head, a shot in the
neck within an inch of the N jugular
vein and a shot in the knee. He was
attended by Dr. Kelley, who says
that the injuries are serious but hopes
for a recovery.
The next worst wounded was
C. L. Hammock, who was hit in
the head and shot in the breast,
above the stomach. The bail was
taken out by Hr- Moore from the
right side of the back, having struck
a rib and passed around. This is
not likely to prove fatal.
His father, W.C; Hammock, fore¬
man of the spinning room, received a
glancing lick on the left cheek bone,
was hit on the head with a stick and
cut slightly in the back.
Jeff Ernest, a nephew of Bob, was
struck on the side of the head with a
stack.
Others were probably somewhat in¬
jured, but did not care to show up,
The trouble has been brewing for
some days past, and while nobody
at the factory seemed to be willing to
say much about it, the superintend¬
ent himself, although present at
the riot, declining to give any
particulars as be did not desire
“newspaper notoriety”—as if the
shooting of three men was a private
affair!—the facts seem to be about
as follows:
The foreman of the weaving room,
Robert Ernest,is accused of casting re¬
flections upon the character of some
of the girls employed, and discharg¬ ele¬
ed one of them, a daughter couple of of the days
