une annual conferences, who have the power
TO change the ecclesiastical constitution, just
as three-fourths Of the states must act 10
change the constitution Of the United
Statesf And the weight Of opinion In
the conference is that the question must
be SO referred, as the constitution does
not permit the admission OF women; but
1t may be added that at least half OF those
who opposed the present admission Of women
avowed their intention to support the pro-
posed amendment.
The question is revived by the choice this
year Of a few women delegates, Of whom
Miss Frances E. Willard is best known.
Among the most active and able advocates
Of admitting the women at once were Rev. J.
z. Potts, Of The Michigan Advocate; Rev.
William Bush, Of Dakota; Rev. Theodore z.
Flood, editor Of the Chautauquan; Gen.
Hurst, of Chillicothe, o.; Rev. j. 3. Hanil-
ton and others TIE opposition was led, and
very ably led, by Rev. j. Il Buckley, editor
of The Christian Advocate, who produced q
letter from Senator Kdmunds on the princi-
pies of constitutional law and the admission
Of members on certificate TO any elected body.
This led to very animated discussion, in
which constitutional principles were searched

and workings, as the matter goes back now
to the constituent bodies.
The Metropolitan Opera house is bearH-
fully suited for the conference. On the
ample stage sat the bishops, secretaries and
distinguished visitors; in the orchestra the
large body of reporters; the main floor was
filed with the delegates, lay and clerical,
while back of them rose the five great circles
filed with interested spectators On the
floor are sixty colored men, representing
their branch Of the great Methodist body;
also a Methodist Chinaman, and several Ger
mans, Scandinavians and other Europeans

centers in the three bishops to be chosen,

church is personal matter and easily IN

It was the familiar story. Mr.. De Baum

twenty years, knew all its concerns init

picion," ETC., according to the usual formula
For some years past he had enjoyed salary
of So, 500 q year, on which he had lived In
fine style with his wife and two children at
133 Fort Green place, near Lafayette avenue,
Brooklyn, and been an active member of two
or three very extravaganza clubs. His init
mates are positive he took very little money
away, as he has used the whole amount in
prodigal living. Indeed, a strange feature
Of the case is that more than one Of his asso-
ciates shook their heads o1ninously long be-
fore the outcome, and one said that Charlie

A prominent stakeholder has said that too
much economy has been practiced in the
bank in order to raise its surplus; that the
salaries Of the employees have been very low.
A system Of espionage has been practiced
which, it YVES hoped, would prevent any loss.
The clerks were given frequent leaves, and
detectives were introduced to do their work
during their absence.
There is no knowledge Of the whereabouts
of De Baum, but the directors Of the bank are
understood to be determined to punish him
