FOUR new BISHOPS
Are Elected at the Methodist
General Conference.
Cosby News Notes From
New York City,
With the Usual Melange From
Various Quarters.
Methodist Rishops Elected.

PHMADELPHIA, May Is. - When
Bishop Simpson appeared ON the platform
at the Methodist general conference he
was greatly applauded. He declined to
make any remarks, his health not per-
hitting. Revs. Newton Young and Syl-
vester Wesleyan, of the conference from
England, made a few parting remarks.
Rev. George w. Norris, of the New
Hampshire conference, offered a resolu-
ton, which was referred, that in its sense
the general conference might as well reaf-
firm the doctrine of our fathers that the
Methodist Episcopal church is still the
Methodist Episcopal church.
The Methodist conference was largely
attended yesterday, because of the election
of four new bishops. Rev. w. X. Ninde,
D. D., of Detroit conference, and presi-
dent of Garrett Biblical Institute, and
Rev. j. NJ. Walden, D. D., of the West
ern Book Concern, Cincinnati, were elect
ed ON the first two ballots, Rev. Willard
f. Mallalein, d. D., on the third. The
fourth failed to result in n choice. On the
fifth ballot 800 votes were cast, of which
lS4 were necessary to a choice. Rev. G..
II. Fowler, d. D., received 2l2 and Rev.
j. II. Vincent, D. d., 1856. The former
was declared elected.

The Fisk-Hatch Suspension.

SAN Francisco, May l5.-The suspen-
sion to-day of Fisk & Hatch, of New
York, created more surprise than any yet
announced. This was chiefly due to the
fact that the suspenped firm were such
heavy dealers in government bonds large
ly held on this coast; secondly they were
the fiscal agents of the Chesapeake &
Ohio railroad system, controlled by G.. p.
Huntington, first vice president of the
Central Pacific. The announcement was
Immediately followed by rumors as to the
effect the suspension might have on the
railroad interests of this coast. Charles
Croker, president of the Central Pacific
Railway company stated emphatically to
a representative of the Associated Press
that it would have none, that neither the
Central nor the Southern Pacific were nor
could be involved with the suspended
firm. A bank manager who was inter
viewed said We are interested but unin-
volved spectators of the Wall street
troubles"

PrTTsBURG, May 15.-Petroleum open
ed firm at SO cents, and under the impress
sion that the worst was over, good buying
was inagurated, which sent prices uptoS5,
when the announcement Of the failure of
Fisk & Hatch, and A. W. Dimick, caused
a reaction, and a worse panic than that OF
yesterday ensued. Certificates were
dumped on the market in large bundles
and prices dropped to 764 in a few min
utes amid the widest excitement. News
of the panic spread rapidly, and large
crowds focked to the exchange, but in the
meantime the market had struck bottom,
and prices rallied and closed at III. The
sales of to-day were enormous.
, 1884-05-16

WAsHINGToN. May l5.-The following
bill was introduced into the House to day:
BE it enacted, etc, that it shall be I'M
lawful for the president, cashier, teller or
other chief executive officer of any Ma
tional Banking association, having a CAPT
tai stock to the amount of S2OO,O 600, or
more, to deal, trade or otherwise engage
in speculation in stocks, bonds or other
securities, or in grain, provisions, produce
or oil on margins, on his own individual
account or for his own personal profit,
either directly or indirectly, or to have
any partnership or other financial interest
in the operations of any private banking
or brokerage firm or business. Any such
officer who violates the provisions of this
act, or any person who aids or abets such
officer in violating the provisions in this
act, shall be deemed guilty of INSIDE
meanor and shall be imprisoned not less
than one year nor more than five years, or
fined not more than $4,000"

ST. JOSEPH, Mo, May l5.-TheS A..
Richmond Medical company, whose as
signment has been announced, had a con
tract with w. P. Hubbard, advertising
agent, for advertising to the amount of
100000, and the contract provided that
Winslow Judson, an attorney of
this city representing Hubbard, should
have the contract business here to secure
payment, Judson was called to New
York on business some days ago, and in
his absence Richmond assigned. Hub
bard teIegraphed from New York to-day
that Judson says Richmond's assignment
is ridiculous and was done without his
knowledge. He further says his claim,
less than SIC, 900, is fully secured by goods
in New York and California, and other
liabilities do not exceed $1,000.

YOUNGSTOWN, O., May ia scene
Of great excitement is witnessed at Ash
land, Ohio, where Horn and Gibbon are
to be hung tomorrow. The l4th regi-
ment Ohio National Guards and II por-
ton of the sth regiment are there to pro-
tect the Jail. Crowds of excited men are
coming in on every train. The murder
was so atrocious that the crowd insists on
lynching or a public execution. Sheriff
Gates this afternoon received 200 muskets
and ammunition for deputies.

KANSAS CITY, May l5.-There is no
truth in the report of the suspension of
the Bank of Kansas City. The banks of
this city met this morning and agreed to
pay 20 per cent cash to depositors and
give certified checks for the balance. The
agreement includes all except Armour's
bank, which prefers to pay dollar for dol
lar. The balances at the Clearing house
will be announced at one o'clock, when a
plan of settlement will be agreed upon. 1t
is thought the plan decided upon in New
York will be adoited here.

Foreign purchases of stocks and bonds
were very heavy. Cyrus W. Field says:
The worst is now over, and it is a good
thing this crash came just as it did" The
General Manager of the Bankers & Mer-
chants Telegraph company, says the sus-
pension of Dim! k & Co. will not involve
the company. Representatives of the
Associated Press visited most of the lead
ing commission houses. They invariably
said there are no dangerous clements in
the financial situation and many think
the experience of the past few days will
prove beneficial to the speculative com-
munity.
