CHICAGO, Oct. 6.-Col. Thos. Lowry, the
owner of the st. Paul street railway, with
the city council and other prominent
citizens Of st. Paul, reached this city at 2
p. m. to-day. The party numbers thirty,
and room had been provided for them at
the Palmer House and Grand Pacific
Hotel. They enjoyed long drive about
the parks and boulevards this after
noon. and visited the Grand
Opera house in a bedy this even
ing to witness the performance OF
Saiisbury's Troubadors. Tomorrow they
will attend the national convention OF
those interested in street railways, which
is to be held at the Grand Pacific hotel,
when it is expected certain members of

theories to advance. The majority OF the
members are we'll pleased with the cable

they would be dangerous to horses and

REPORTS OF COMMITTEEs READ.
THE INDIAN POLICY DISCUSSED.
SiCth DnH.

The ministers at the Methodist confer
ence gathered yesterday morning bright
and early at the Jackson Street NJ. E.
church. 1t had been indicated that if
the 1usiness was acted upon with reason
able 'slerity the prospects were that an
adjoL ment could be reached in the even
ing. Fhe brethren enjoyed their stay in
st. Paul very much, but Il weeks absence
rather made them homesick and then there
is such state as getting too much OF a
good thing. The good people of st. Paul
have put forth every effort to entertain
the ministerial brethren and have guc-
ceeded, and the preachers think that the
long continued effort has about wore them
out and are ready to go home. The con-
ference appointments do not cut much of
figure in the interests of the ministers
this year. This is what is called an ''of
year, in Minnesota Methodlsm. The last
annual conference witnessed the princi-
pal changes in location in the important
changes and prominent ministers. The
only change anticipated in St.
Paul was in the Clinton church,
Dr.. Morgan's time having expired.
In Minneapolis there were none anticipa-
ted, although some of the brethren con-
cluded that the changes would be more
numerous than was generally anticipated.
Owing to mistake on the part of the
secretary the time limit for half railroad
fore to the ministers, expired yeste day.
and all were required to pul chase tickets
then.
This has been most harmonious and
interesting session, there have been no
antagonisms and 20 feelings aroused. The
Amber matter alone is regretted for hav-
ing cast cloud over the proceedings, but
this was satisfactorily disposed of, as will
be seen in the proceedings hereafter. The
secretary, Mr.. Forbes, has the thanks OF
the members and the reporters for his IN
varying kindness and obliging dis isposition.
The reports of the session in the GLOBE
have been universally satisfactory and
complete, and many members are taking
home files of the week which they declare
ere as good as the secretary's minutes.

GREAT BRITAIN.

LONDON, Oct. S.-Postmaster General
Fawcett announces that it is not the inten-
ton of the government, after August,
1884, to renew the present contract for
conveyance of mails between England and
the United States. Mails will hereafter be
dispatched three times a week from
Queenstown, but instead of making long
contracts the department will monthly Sc
lect the most efficient vessels for their
transmission.
DUBLIN, Oct. 8.--Cardinal McCabe has
issued pastoral letter, in which he says
that owing to the justice and good sense
of modern statesmen, many former edu-
cational grievances had been redressed,
but much remains to be done if Catholics
are to be placed upon level with other
denominations. In this respect he says
he does not ask for his people the slight
est privilege as against others, but only
equality and justice.

OLD WORLD NEWS.
FRANCE AND CHINA

LONDON, Oct. 8.-The Berlin corre-
spondent of the Times says China has re-
jected the memorandum drawn up by
Ferry, French prime minister relative to
the settlement of the Tonquin question.
The following frontier line ss now being
discussed beginning at tho line made by
the arm of the Phunibert delta, it follows
this arm in northwesterly direction un-
til it comes to the canal around the rapids,
this it skirts as far as the Red river. 1t
then runs along the Red river until Hung
Hoa is reached. At that point is the pro-
posed station of the Chinese Custom
house. According to this proposed line
the delta will be divided into two nearly
equal parts. France, however, now re-
CARDS the negotiations as not serious and
is resolved on precipitation settleme ent
of the question by the facts accomplished.

5000 members, and 13, 900 children in the
Sunday schools. In Northern Dakota
they had a mission OF ffty-four churches
which was rapidly being developed. He
recommended that the two denominations
unite IN the smaller Western towns whore

CONFERENCE DIVISION.
D. Brooks, p. e. Hair, and T. P. Lath-
rop, the committee on conference division,
reported as follows:
Your committee on conference division would
respectfully report that having had the question
under careful consideration, we recommend the
following:
ReSOlUed, That we respectfully memorslize
the general conference to organize that portion
of our territory located in Dakota and SO much
of Minnesota as is now in the Red River District
into mission 70 be called North Dakota and Red
River Mission.
C. A. VAN ANDA,
Chairman.
This report threw a bombshell into the
conference and half dozen brethren we're
on their feet at once protesting or
encouraging. Finally an amendment
was offered that the northern post of Min
nesota De not included in this mission, but
it was laid on the table. The opposition
to the resolution, headed by the Rev. S. G.
Smith, Of st. Paul, adopted fllibustering
tactics. and introduced one substitute and
amendment after another to defeat the
new mission. but to no avail; the majority
on the other side was too strong and could
not be moved. Speech after speech was
made on both sides of the question, and
the bishops could with difficulty maintain
order. The whole affair, simmered and
sifted down, seems to be that the
Minnesota men in part objected to losing
portion of their territory and strength.
The resolution, if carried out by the gen.
eral conference will reduce the member
ship of the Minnesota conference about
thirty-fve. The new conference men on
the other hand claimed if this mission
was organized they would be i'll position
to do more good by being able to get their
hands deeper into the treasury strong box.
The resolution was finally carried almost
unanimously and there is no doubt but tho
the general conference upon the recon-
mendation of the Minnesota delegate will
organize this new mission conference.
The bishop after the vote had been an
nounced explained the matter of appro-
priating mission money, and then che
conference adjourned uutil O'CLOCK p. II.

the trial of Kellogg's star route case be set

ply hereafter to have an earlier day fixed
for trial.

bic to-day will come before the court to-
morrow, with the exception of No. 2, an
original ex parte in the matter of the Can
ada Southern Railway company, which
has been continued by stipulation of coun-
sci, and will probably be settled without

case relates to the terms upon which the
railway company shall be allowed to use
the International bridge across Niagara

the docket, end which will probably be
reached tomorrow or Wednesday, will not
