ROCK RIVER CONFERENCE.
Fifth Days Session Discussing
Temperance.


Temperance.
CHICAGO, Oct 9.-At the fifth day Of
the annual session Of the Rock River confer
ence, NJ E. church, Bishop Fair presided and
good deal of interesting bust
ness was disposed of. The COM
mittee on Freedman's Aid society
reported receipts for the past year at s17S,
co., an increase of 100000 over the previous
year. The ballot for delegate to the general
conference resulted in choosing Rev. F. T.
Cleveland Revs. B. Fl. Cartwright and
Seymour Slower were superanuuated- The
report of the committee on temperance led
to an exciting debate on account of the
clause in the report which cen
sured the action of Chicago
ministers endorsing high license. 1t was de-
c.ared that this endorsement hurt the country
ministers, on the part of those who favored
the clause, and that the clause was direct
imputation on the motives of the men who
took part in the endorsement. The matter
was finally settled by striking out the clause.

The banquet to Mr.. Herndon Morsell, which |
took place at the National hotel on Tuesday

keteers," was planned by number of his per-
sonal friends members of the Washington

the enterprise-and the affair was one of the
happiest successes that has occurred for many
a day. Mr.. Hay, who was to have presided,
was called from the city on business, and
DIR. Frank II. Howe was called upon
to occupy tho head of the table.
Upon his right was the guest of the evening,
Mr.. Morsell, while on his left was seated Mr..
George rockingham, of the Ideal opera com
pany. Other members of the Ideal troupe
were present, as follows: Messrs. III. G. Bar
nabee, w. II. Mcdonald, Tom Karl, and S. l..

| Opera house. The menu card contained many
witty illusions to the troupe with which Mr..
Morsell is connected, such rs "Gelatine la

| Beans" sc. Tho supper was served in mine
host Tinney's best style, and was thoroughly
enjoyed.
After the play of the knife and fork had

the resolution which provides that the com
mission asked for shall he so constituted that
it would be in harmony with and auNillary
TO the railway commission established by the
various states" lie did not want TO see ma
tional commission in harmony with the Cali
fornia railway commission, which he said was
composed of servants of the railways. lie
thought, too, that national commission
should not be subordinate to state commits
sions. Other delegates entertained similar
views, and the objectional clause was stricken
out.
Mr.. Murry Nelson thought IL was about
time for the board TO inquire what had been
accomplished by the adoption of kindred reso-
lutions at previous meetings; whether con-
grcss had paid any attention to the national
board of trade in the past, and what assur-
anCe could be given that congress would pay
any attent ion to any action that might be
taken on the question by the board now, or
at any future date. He objected TO random
shooting, and wanted to see practical results.
He was in favor of anybodys plan ana
everybodys plan for the regulations of rail
ways and shippers, and everybody else, but
he was anxious to see results. Having been
regulated himself, lie wanted to sec everybody
else regulated on short ordor and III the most
thorough manner.
The chairman, in reply to Mr.. Nelson s fusi-
ladc OF inuuiries explained what had been
commerce regulation; naming the bills intro,
duced, and explaining the purpose and intent
of the more important of them.
Mr.. Wetherill called attention to the fact
that rates of freights on European railways,
where railways are under governmental con-
troll, are larger than in this country where
they are comparatively free.
Mr. Sterns threw some light on this phase OF
the question. and after further discussion the
resolution adopted by the national board last
year was rcadopted by unanimous vote. II
is as follows:
Resolred That permanent commission or trl.
bune should be established, whose business II
would be, under suitable regulations aud rcstric
tions, to supervise all common carriers doing NJ
insterstntc business. and to make such recon
mendntions to congress from time 10 tlme us may
seen necessary in The interest Of all concerned.
The following committee was appointed
with instructions to draft bill which shal
embody the views of the board and report i
for revision and adoption by the board before
| its final adjournment: Mcssrs. Fraley, Stern
Goodwin, Dunham, and Bair.
A proposition recommending the establish
ment of
A DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
as a branch of the national administration
with supervising power over foreign and in
terstate commerce, was referred to commit
tee of three for consideration.
A resolution declaring that masters in com
mand of vessels should, without charge fo
pilotage, have the right to take their vessels
into any American port for which they hav'
passed the usual pilots examination wa
adopted, after which the board adjourned
until o'clock to-day.
