New York.
New York, May 3l.-Bishop Fitzgerald
presided for the first time at today's session
of the Methodist Episcopal general confer
ence. When the body was called to order
there were not more than fifteen or twenty
delegates in their places. A large number
Of the delegates have returned to their
homes.
Dr.. ]. ii. Baylis Of Cincinnati, opened
the devotional exercises, after which DR..
Kynett moved that the bishops be request
ed TO appoint any commissions not already
provided for.
Chaplain McCabe suggested that the
order of devotional exercises adopted at
yesterdays session be printed in the
hymnal and ritual. Dr. Wheeler, who
last night was ruled out Of order by Bishop
Vincent, here arose TO a question Of privi-
| lege and wanted the chair 10 rule on the
same point that he raised before Bishop
Vincent. Bishop Fitzgerald declared him
out OF order again. The report providing
for the union OF Methodsts OF all national
tiles was then taken up and adopted.
The minority report opposing the indie
pendence OF the japanese church was
presented, but was laid on the table.
The next report was that OF the commit
tees on the Dalles mission case. The case
is one where the missionary society sold
and gave possession OF certain property al
Dalles, Ore, TO certain parties, after the
society's right TO the land had been cert
fled TO by the Secretary Of the Interior.
The United States supreme court, however,
decided that the missionary society had nc
right to the land. The committee, in con.
sequence, recommended the refunding Of
the money TO the persons who had paid it.
or their heirs, in four annual payments
without interest. The sum is S23, 700

etc In 1860 there was such a demand
for it that France thought it necessa ry
to issue royal ordinance providing
that mark should be affixed to i'm

great fires at Eoniton in 1856 and 1867
gave the first great check TO its intro

LOUISIANA SOLID.
Humili ting Defeat of the Republican
Candidate for Governor.

Humiliating Defeat of the Republican
Candidate for Governor.
The significant lesson of the recent
Louisiana election is in the fact that
Mr.. Warmoth was beaten at his own
game. with his own weapon, and in a
great measure by his own former
dupes, the negroes. He is the most
capable and experienced organizer aud
manipulation of the black voters that
ever has migrated from the Northern
to the Southern part of the Republic.
When he started for the Office of Gov
ernor he organized them into secret
bands and enlisted them in his per-
sonal service with lavish promises of
idleness and plenty. Gaining his OBJ
ject, with a black-and-tan Legislature
subservient to his wishes, he made
election laws that were intended to
perpetuate his dynasty. Those laws,
slightly modified by judicial decisions.
are still regnant and would have
served the design of Warmoth. if he
had been returned to the Executive
office. of turning over Louisiana by
fair means or foul. to the opposition
in the coming Presidential election.
This was the programme which the
defeat of Warmoth has defeated. The
fact that its defeat was due partly to
the refusal Of the blacla to vota for
