NEW TORK, April 6. A threaten
ing: postal card sent to Mrs. Hilma
Uohl. advising her not to press her
charfres, was today's contribution to
the incidents which have atended the
secret ecclesiastical trial of iJr. Jacob
E. Price, the Methodist clergyman who
is charged with misconduct by nine
women members of his congregation.
Mrs. ohl said on the stand that Ir.
Price, had made improper proposals to
her and "treated her as no man had
ever treated her before,"
"Your eccusations against Xr. Price."
read the postal, "are false. I suppose
you are another suffragette clamoring
for newspaper notoriety. Better let
this matter drop."
Mrs. rohj told of a. visit paid her last
Friday by Ephraim Hill, who appeared
for Dr. Price as a character witness.
Hill, said Mrs. Dohl, on occasions ex
pressed the belief that the accused
ty Commissioners' office, ' One repre
sentative of each body -was chosen on
the ten committees from which Mayor
Albee will name a chairman.
At the next meeting to be held- at
the City Hall April 27, the committees
on accounting and engineering and
pavinj? specifications are expected to
report. At subsequent meetings re
ports from the other committees will
be heard until, the whole programme
has been completed.
The proposed plan which may
eventually lead to a consolidation of
the three branches with a view to re
ducing the total expense has been
under consideration for several months,
but only in the last few weeks has
definite action been taken.

let up on a man when he is down."
Mrs. Dohl also said that Hill had pre
viously told her that he thought Dr.
Trice was guilty.
ft became known that during an ex
amination today Dr. Price denied cate
gorically the charges made against him
by the witnesses.
Mrs. William Moore, a witness, told
how a kiss from Dr. Price had led to
what she called a tragedy in her home.
Jvlss Grown to Tragedy. -
"A. kisc is a small thing, sometimes,"
he said, "but In my home it grew into
a tragedy.' The witness broke down
as she talked, explaining that the in
cident caused the failure of an aim
tvhich she had long been trying to ful
fil, th religious conversion of her
husband.
"I had just managed to get him in
terested and he was on the point of
beginning regular church attendance
when this awful episode happened,"
she said. "Dr. Price came to condole
with me in the affliction which had
visited my mother-in-law. As we rose
from prayer he kissed me on the cheek,
afterwards saying it would be wise
not to tell my hu.sband about It. As a
matter of fact, he found out, of course,
and a storm followed."
Here she asked the jury If they
thought she was justified in keeping
the fact from her husband. One jury
man said her motives at least were
honorable. Counsel for Dr. Price asked
if she had made- any movement that
might have been interpreted as an in
vitation, but on the protest of Mrs.
Moore the question was stricken out.
Pantor Smiled Greeting.
Mrs. Moore said she and her hus
band went to the parsonage together.
"Dr. Price greeted us witU outstretched
hands, smiling." she said. "Mr. Moore
told the pastor not to touch him."
She further testified Dr. Price con
tinued to be suave during the whole
interview, which ended with his re
quest that the Moores kneel in prayer.
During the interview Mr. Moore
asked the pastor why he had kissed
his wife while he himself was visiting
his sick mother. The pastor said that
It was because his "sympathies ran
ii way with him" now and then. Mr.
Moore, according to his wife, then told
the pastor that in the future he had
better keep his sympathies where they
were wanted.

In National Hanks.
SALEM, Or., April 6. (Special.) Be
cause of numerous complaints by state
banks regarding the capital require
ment for state banks under the new
currency law. State Superintendent of
Banks Sajent said today he would ask
the banking departments of various
states to assist him in trying to get
Congress to amend the law.
"There seems to be no objection to
the minimum requirement of a section
of the new measure, but many bankers
think that state banks complying with
all the requirements of the state laws,
having capital of at least $25,000,
should be eligible for membership,"
said Mr. Sargent. "The bill also pro
vides that postal savings funds shall
be deposited ill member banks only.
Many state bankers feel that this is
an injutsice and that the state banks
are entitled to the postal deposits just
as much as National banks are entitled
to the State funds. As National banks
are not so widely distributed as State
banks, this provision may work quite
a hardship upon certain communities in
timeaof stress by reason of the trans
fer of local funds to other districts
through postal savings banks.
"I think the capital requirements
'should be amended to read: Any State
bank or trust company complying with
' the state law and having an unimpaired
capital of not less than S25.000.' should
be eligible to membership."
