HERESY QUESTION PASSED ON
It Proves a Small Thing, and Colleges
Are All Exonerated-Confercnce
Will Finally Adjourn
Today.
LOS ANGELAS, CaL, May 28. Almost
on the stroke of midnight tonight the
General Methodist Conference of 1904 con
cluded Its last business session with the
reading of the roll for the last time, and
adjourned until 3 o'clock tomorrow after
. noon, when a memorial serv'ice will be
held and final adjournment taken.
The closing hours of the conference
witnessed a perfect deluge of committee
reports and resolutions.
After the matter of an amendment to
the constitution of the church, so as to
provide for the election of bishops other
than that of the white race, of several
congregations so approved at the annual
and lay conferences, the press of other
Important business was so great that
all of the business before the conference
was Anally placed in the hands of a
sifting committee at 10.15 P. M.. with
orders to report In 15 minutea Among
the Important subjects presented by this
committee to the conference, and passed
in the closing moments, were the follow
ing: Matter of providing relief for superan
nuated preachers, temperance, use of the
Bible in the public schools, the petition
ing of Congress on the subject of
polygamy, and the practices of Mormon
ism, and complimentary resolutions.
A telegram was read during the evening
from Secretary of the Treasury Shaw,
congratulating the conference on the
work performed during the past month.
By common consent a fraternal reply wras
aent to Mr. Shaw.
Report for Colored Bishop.
Bishop J. M. Buckley, in presenting the
report of the committee on Episcopacy
on the election of others than whites as
bishops, characterized the recommenda
tion as one of most far-reaching import
ance. It was an action, he said, as
weighty as any that had been taken by
any general conference of recent years.
Following was the report of the commit
tee:
"Concerning memorials from the Ten
nessee, East Tennessee, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi,
Texas and Lexington Conferences, re
questing the General Conference to pro
vide for the election of bishops of Afri
can descent, who shall be assigned to the
presidency of conferences, consisting
wholly or chiefly of ministers of African
descent, we respectfully report:
"That In the present state of our funda
mental law, a constitutional objection is
raised to the granting of the request of
said memorialists: but there having been
referred to tills committee, by the Gen
eral Conference, a memorial from the
Bock River Conference to change the fun
damental law so as to make possible the
realization of the desire of the memorial
ists and to accomplish other important
objects, therefore,
"Resolved, First, that this General Con
ference propose the following amendment
to tho constitution: To strike out from the
third restrictive rule paragraph 67, section
3, of the discipline of 1900, so that the
whole paragraph shall read: The General
Conference shall not change or alter any
part or rule of our government, so as
to do away with the episcopacy, nor de
stroy the plan of our itinerant general su
perintendence but may elect a bishop
or bishops for work among particular
races and languages, or for any of our
foreign missions, limiting their episcopal
jurisdiction to the same respectively.
"Resolved, Second, that if this report
is adopted thereafter the above proposed
amendment to the constitution bo scub
jnitted to the General Conference in order
to ascertain whether the legal consti
tutional vote of two-thirds of tho mem
bers present and voting shall be given,
and.
"Resolved, Third, If such should be the
result the bishops shall be requested to
submit the proposition to the members
at the annual conferences and at the lay
electoral conferences, which shall meet in
the years 1907 and 1908 for their adoption
of the same amendment to the constitu
tion." The conference also adopted the major
ity report of the committee on education
on the subject of opening the American
University at . ashlngton. The report ad
vised that the university be not opened
until the endowment of $3,000,000 had been
raised, but recommended that the matter
be left in the hands of the unherslty
trustees for decision.
Heresy Question No Large One.
The heresy question, which has been
held up by many as a thing upon which
there would be prolonged and heat
ed debate, proved to be a very small mat
ter after alL It was dismissed with a re
port brought in by the committee on edu
cation, the conference adopting Its recom
mendations without a ripple of excitement
There was no debate except a brief speech
by Dr. Munhall, who is credited with being
tho leader of the forces opposed to the so
called higher criticism in the theological
colleges. Dr. Munhall merely stated his
opposition to Bible criticism, and declared
himself favorable to tho report as pre
sented. The recommendations of the committee
on education on this particular point were
that In the absence of aufllcient proof
against the faculties of certain universi
ties, these institutions be exonerated on
all the charges of heresy. The report rec
ommended also that sinco there is some
unrest and a disposition to fear that
heresy will develop, the directors should
exercise care in the selection of Instruc
tors, appointing none concerning whoso
soundness of doctrine there is. any ques
tion. Professors were cautioned to In
struct their students to preach none but
established doctrines. The report was
passed by a large vote.
The recommendation of the committee
on temperance, providing for a special de
partment of temperance work and author
izing collections for Its maintenance, was
voted down. The report evoked much dis
cussion on the floor of the conference,
but the final vote against It was decisive.
New Bishops Preside.
The report of the missions committee
was adopted, with the following recom
mendations: Favoring the revision by a commission
of the ritual pertaining to marriage cere
mony and administration of the sacra
ment in the Southern Asia district; favor-
ing the granting of a subsidy to the Mexi
can Christian Advocate: referring to a
commission tho unification of Methodist
bodies in Japan, with power to act; favor
ing the erection, as soon as practicable, of
of a onion theological school for all Meth
odist missionaries in Europe; advising that
a special column be provided in annual
conference minutes for the recording of
special mission gifts, but providing that
churches which have not come up to their
regular missions apportionments shall
have no gifts recorded in said column.
The conference also passed a resolution
expressing sympathy with the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers in tho sud
den death of First Assistant Grand Engi
neer Ingraham.
Several of the newly-elected bishops
were given their first experience as pre
siding officers over the General Conference
at today's session. Bishops Berry, Spell
meyer, Bashford and McDowell presided In
turn. The others of the new bishops will
preside during some of the sessions before
final adjournment. '
A special committee was appointed this
morning to draft complimentary resolu
tions to the City of Los Angeles and all of
the various local committees which have
had to do with the arrangements for car
rying on the' conference during tho past
month.
A report from the itinerancy committee
on the .subject of annual conference dis-
TOOTED STATES SENATOR
WHO DEED
trlcts provoked a long and animated de
bate. It read as follows:
"In response to the petitions contained
In certain memorials referred to us for
consideration, your committee on Itiner
ancy respectfully recommends that sec
tion 2 of paragraph 173 after the discipline
be' amended by adding thereto the words
'but the annual conference shall have the
right by a two-thirds vote to determine
their number,' so that the entire section
shall read: To form districts according
to his Judgment, but the annual confer
ence shall have the right by a two-thirds
vote to determine their number.' "
It was finally defeated by a vote of 907
to 2iS.
The motion to borrow the money from
the book concern was finally amended so
as to instruct the presiding elders of the
various conference districts that are In
arrears to make good their deficiency in
order that the book concern may be re
imbursed. BOLD K0BBESY IN STOKE.
Clerks and Customers Have to Step
Back While Register Is Robbed.
CHICAGO, May 28. A bold robbery was
committed tonight in less than a minute
at the shoe store of Frazln & Oppenheim,
165 Madison street, one square from the
City Hall and the Central Police Station.
There were 14 customers In the store and
six clerks were attending to their wants
when four men entered the place in suc
cession, each about five feet behind the
man in front of him. One of the clerks
started forward to meet the supposed
customers, when three of the men drew
revolvers, each robber having two weap
ons, and ordered the clerks and customers
to the rear of the store. While the people
were hastening to obey, the fourth man
took all the cash from the register, $385,
and then the four robbers ran out into
Madison street and disappeared.
The store is slightly below the street
level, but while the robbery was in prog
ress the doors were open and people pass
ing along Madison street had a plain view
of the inside of the store.

OPPOSED SHIP SUBSIDY.
Joseph Foard Tells Commission It Is
Impracticable.
BALTIMORE. May 28. The Merchant
Marine Commission, appointed by Con
gress, and composed of members of that
body, for the purpose of making recom
mendations for legislation In regard to the
restoration of American shipping, met
here today.
Joseph R. Foard opposed the gen
eral subsidy plan for encouraging the
building of ships as being impracticable.
He said he would recommend liberal mall
contracts, amended .navigation laws and a
builders' or owners' bonus oft 60 per cent
in cash upon'the commissioning ot ships
completed within two years of the pass
age of the act, and diminishing at the
rate of 5 per cent a year down to nothing
at the end of ten years.
Bernard .N. Baker, president of the At
lantic Transport Company, spoke In be
half of a ship subsidy, maintaining that
Congress should make an appropriation
each year for a number of years for the
upbuilding of American shipping. He fur
ther suggested that this should be made
subject to a contract being entered into
bv public proposals so that no citizen or
corporation would have any undue advan
tage. Under such a contract, the owners
of these ships would not be allowed to
transfer them to any foreign flag for a
period ol 20 years, and the ships would
always be at the command of the Gov
ernment Tor transport service. "
Ie declared that "trade would follow
the flag," and the subsidizing of the ma
rine would enormously Increase the ex
port trade. Mr. Baker said he believed
the amount to be set aside yearly, by
Congress should be 510,000,000, and If this
were .done he believed that in ten years
2,500,000 tons would be added to American
shipping.
ABOLISHES TEE CONCORDAT.
Sweeping Measure Drawn by French
Committee on Fight With Vatican.
PARIS, May 28. Premier Combes' an
nouncement that the question of separa
tion of state and church would come In
January has drawn attention to the law
already formulated by the committee on
the separation of the church and state.
It Is a sweeping measure, the opening
clauses reading as follows:
"The republic assures freedom of con
science, and it guarantees the free exer
cise of religion without restriction, ex
cept for the preservation of public order.
"The republic will neither protect nor
pay salaries nor subventions, under any
form whatever, to any denomination. It
will not recognize a'ny minister of religion
and will not furnish any building for the
services of any denomination or for the
lodging of any of Its ministers."
The measure further abolishes the con
cordat, suppresses the French Embassy
at the Vatican and makes detailed provi
sion for the disposal of the government's
extensive possession of church property.
