tonight that two bishops are almost
sure to be elected at this conference.

ances. The candidates whose names
are most prominently canvassed are
Dr. W. D. Palmer of St. Louis, Dr. E.
E. Hoss and Dr. J. J. Tigert of Nash-

There is a strong current of sentiment
In all the delegations to the conference

for him if he permits the use of his
name.

neither should you neglect your opportunities.

double the money.

here. He knew Texas was a great
state and had a great people, because
the test people of all the old states
had come here.
Dr. E. E. Hoss, of Nashville, moved
that the conference send Its sympathy
to Bishop Keener on account of his In-
firmity and to Bishop Fitzgerald, on
account of the death of his daughter,
Mrs. Banks, a few days ago. The mo-
tion carried unanimously.
The rules of the last general con-
ference were adopted. A committee
of five to revise the rules was author-
ized and is to be appointed.
An earnest recommendation was
made for the better support of the
superannuated preachers, widows and
orphans of deceased preachers, and
that a plan bo-adopted whereby a fund
of $100,000 be secured for tis pur-
pose. , k
The matter of local preachers work-
ing as evangelists was touched on.
The work of the mission boards,
church extension, Epworth League,
Sunday schools and the literature of
the church was commented upon.
Large space was devoted to the
schools and colleges of the church. It
was shown that the publishing house,
during the past four years, did a busi-
ness of $1,500,000, or an increase of
$186,000.
The publishing house war claim was
reviewed, showing that the churen was
was free from any blame In th mat-
ter. A hope was expressed that this
conference would finally settle this
mooted case. The election of two new
bishops was asked for.
Immediately after the reading of the
address Bishop Candler, of Georgia,
read a letter from Senators A. O. Ba-
con and A. S. Clay, which he had re-
ceived in reply to a letter relating to
the course which should be pursued by
the Methodist church in regard to the
money which was paid under act of
congress, In settlement of the war
claim of the publishing house, limited.
This letter was signed by eighty sen-
ators. The last clause reads as fol-
lows!
“The report of the committee and
the resolution both adopted by the
senate, in explicit terms, exoperates
the church from blame on the ground
of criticism for anything which oc-
curred in connection with the passage
of the bill and is a clear expression of
opinion that there is no obligation on
the part of the church to repay the
money to the government, or make
further offer to do so.”
