A movement to organize a Congregational Church in Flatbush has been started, and this morning at 10:30 o'clock, divine service is to be held ia Masonic Hall, 824 Flatbush avenue. For several days the Congregational Church Extension Society has had the Rev. Theodore W.

Harris on the field making a preliminary survey and marshaling the Congregational forces. The Rev. Mr. Harris has visited a large number of families, that find it hard to continue attendance at the home church, and that do not readily affiliate with the churches in Flatbush of other denominations. Jiis errand at these homes is said to have been warmly approved and a large attendance is expected at the first services to day.

About sixty families or 150 people are said to be interested in the proposed new church, prominent among whom is Charles Baldwin. A movement for the organization of a Congregational church has been spontaneously begun in another section of Flatbush, quite independent of the Rev. Mr. Harris' work. The leaders of this movement on learning the action of the Church Extension Society, have placed themselves in touch with that organization and the harmony and interests of all concerned is now assured.

It developed at the examination before Justice Conklin to day that the girl met young Robertson and the two drove to Patchogue, arriving here about midnight. They drove about all night. Phillips became alarmed and this morning when the girl' and rig failed to appear and upon inquiry at the girl's home he learned of the man in the case. He telephoned to Liveryman John Baylis here, who kept a sharp look out for tne pair, and about noon Baylis and Constable M.

It was said today that forty four friends of the pastor havo prepared their resignations, but will not hand them in until they carry their It is also stated that In order to show their strength at the meeting, Monday evening, the pastor's friends would first vote not to accept his resignation and afterward vote to accept it. The members of the taction favoring the pastor are so certain of their strength when a vote is taken that they expect to carry their points as planned. Mrs. Benjamin F. Stephens of the opposing faction intimated yesterday, that there might ba some surprises forthcoming trom her friends.

In reference to a statement given out by friends of the pastor and' printed in the Eagle, Mrs. Stephens said: "I will say that the envelope mentioned in the statement was brought to the building committee 'the morning of the. laying of the corner stone by Ithamon Du Bois, clerk of session sealed when on account of the severe rain storm the exercises, had to be postponed. He asked for the sealed envelope and took it away. It was brought back June 8 or 10, the afternoon before the laying, of tha corner stone.

"The committee had discussed with Mir. MacClelland the fact that the envelope was sealed. He told us it was not proper that It should be sealed, and gave the committee permission to open the envelope, which they did. "They considered that the report was not full enough and was wrong in details that took place before Mr. Du Bois was connected with the church, of which he could not know except on hearsay.

Members the committee knew these facts of their own knowledge and appended and enclosed with the report tha additions and corrected statements. The original document was not altered.
