most of the preachers it was announced that the
conference would be ready to close last night.
A late session in the afternoon was held, at
which W. M. Earring. D. e., presided. John
Poueher conducted the devotional services At
this session the various committees presented
their reports. Quite spirited discussion arose
over resolution offered by l.. F. Cain to change
the time of the annual session from fall to
spring. The resolution was finally tabled. yet
there was quite large vote against it. The in
dications are that this conference will ere long
ask to hold its sessions in the spring. At night
session was held, with Bishop Harris in the
chair; A. Turner, d. D., conducted the devo
tioual services The bishop Announced the
transfer to this conference of J. E. GiI I from

South Kansas. John A. Ward was ap-
pointed 70 preach the conference sermon

ness of an unimportant character the president
addressed the conference and read the appoint
