ENGLISH GRAIN.
PRICES ADVANCING.

LONDON, May 1.-THE Mark Lane Ee-
press says The aspect of agricultural af-
fairs is but little advanced since last week.
Night frosts in many districts have checked
the development of wheat, which is generally
backward and frequently thin. Unless genial
weather sets in speedily, the chances of ul-
innate mischief to the crops will be consider
ably increased. Scotch advices are somewhat
better, although both in Mark Lane and in
the provinces the demand for English wheat
| is somewhat inactive. Last weeks prices
were we'll maintained pnd even occasionally
exceeded.
Import of foreign has been sufficient to
meet the ordinary requirements without
swelling shocks. This circumstance, and the
unusual shortness in continental reserves,
Increased confidence ofIbuyers.. If the price of
wheat had not already fallen con-
paratlvely low doubtless trade
would require all support
extraneous influence could afford to avert
further decline being caused by the liberia
tion of the ring stocks in America and the
increased imports consequent on the reopen
ing OF Northern Russian ports. Of late,

ground that wheat, at the present range of
prices, can be safely bought for speculation
or consumption. Holders have strongly re-
sisted any further reduction, being

prospects has had an active strengthening

ROME.
THE PoPE's ILLNESS.

ROME, May 1.-THE Pope has recently
undergone successive painful operations.
The Pope would much like to spend the sum-
mer at Proguia, but he is not prepared to
face the storm of opposition, reproach and
menace he would have to encounter if he
did so. It's is meanwhile no secret to his
medical advisers, that to remain in Rome all
summer is to perhaps run the immediate
risk of his life and certain to shorten it.

road men report great ravages by fire

intelligence that the forest fire had reached
Gates and Summer cities. Sparks and Gin

burning woods. The fire departments of
both places turned out and saved the houses
from flying sparks, while the citizens sue
cessfully fought the flames in the woods by
back fires, aided by change of wind. 1t is

reservation and of the danger they were in
curing. He found it impossible to over
take them as they were evidently making
forced marches for Eagle River, prompted
doubtless by visit from White River Utes.

THE RELIGIOUS FIELD.

Exciting Session OF the Methodist Episco-
pal General Conference Fire-brand in
the Form of Temperance Resolutions
Workers Sent Out by the Women's Mis-
sion Society.
CINCINNATI, May 17-Bishop Wiley pre-
sided at the session of the Conference to- day.
The time was mostly occupied offering me-
MORALS and resolutions for reference
Among them was resolution from the Yer.
mont Conference requiring candidates for
the ministry to answer the questions: "Do
you use tobacco?" Do you use alcoholic
stimulants in any form?' Referred to the
committee on revivdls. A resolution was
offered instructing the committee on freed
mems aid to inquire and report whether the
duties of that society could not be advan-
tageously divided between the education an
church extension societies. Adopted. A
resolution by j. w. Willet which declared
the Bishops elect to be Bishops by the fact
of election and not by the ceremony of Or
dination, was referred to the committee
on episcopacy.
Much feeling was aroused by the intro
duction of preamble and resolution by DR..
Olin, of Maryland, the preamble reciting
the evils of intemperance and alluding to the
fact that one of the delegates to this confer
ence, DIR. Goodwin, had lost his life through
the intemperance of his brother, and the res
olution inviting Miss Francis E. Willard,
representing the Women's National Christian
Union, to address the conference for ten
minutes. The resolution was vigorously
opposed by Drs. Buckley and Cary, who
argued that to make such precedent would
open the conference to flood of applicants
for similar privileges. DIR. Hatfield said Miss
Willard was a member of his church,
and he would be glad to hear her, but
he wanted all to be treated alike, and he
moved to. amend by admitting all who repre-
sent similar organizations and who wanted
to address the conference. This was lost.
DR.. Payne then moved substitute, which,
in effect, was to strike out DR.. Olin's pre-
amble. On this the yeas and nays were
called. The substitute was adoptedE-yeas
218, nays 119. DR.. Buckley then demanded
the yeas and Lays on the original question,
but the demand was supported by only 35,
so being necessary to order a yea and nay
vote. The original motion was then adopted.
DIR. Buckley then moved to adjourn, and it
was carried without making any order with
reference to Miss Willard's speech.
