IRELAND AND THE VATICAN.

A Burglar Secures a Now Trial for
Mr.. O'Rrien.

LONDON, May 2.-The reported appoint
ment Of Cardinal Moran of Australia to sue
ceed Archbishop Walsh in the archdiocese OF
Dublin is not yet confirmed, but the rumor
has had the effect of arousing intense oppo-
sition among the National leaders to the re-
moval Of the Dublin prelate in favor Of any
body. The official PRONUNCIATION Of the
Pope's decree is anxiously awaited by the
more conservative of the Irish leaders, in the
hope that the full terms of the document may
disclose some loophole whereby they may es-
cape the penalties imposed by the church
while still conducting their warfare against
landlords and other obnoxious persons ac-
cording to the methods interdicted by the
Holy Father. Meanwhile, all OF the leaders
counsel moderation on the part OF their fol-
lowers. Many prominent Leaguers seek TO
excuse the action of the Pope by admitting
that from any other than an Irish point Of
view condemnation of the methods employed
by Irish tenants is perfectly natural, but in
asmueh as the civilization Of no other coun-
try presents a state of affairs analogous to
that existing in Ireland, the plan OF cam
paign and boyeotting, they assert, are purely
logical and perfectly legitimate weapons IN
the country of their origin, however ques-
tionable they might be in others.

mETHopisTs AT WORK.
The Bishops Oppose tho Admission
of Women as Delegates.

New YORK, May 2.-At the opening of the
session the second day of the Methodist con-
ference, Bishop Morrill, read the bishops ad-
dress. 1t gave review of the revival work
that has been going on in the church since
last conference Since then not less than
$4,000 souls have been brought into the
church. The membership has gone up from
1,769, ,5S4 to 2,O93,935 There has been great
improvement in architectural designs of the
churches. The educational work of the
church has made rapid progress, and the
loyalty of the ministry is source of con-
graduation. Peace reigns throughout meth
odism and no serious agitation threatens the
unity of denomination.
For the first time in the history of the con-
ference, women have been sent as delegates.
The bishops do not think that women are
eligible.
The increasing arrival on our shores of
members of the Roman Catholic church
makes it imperative that the members of the
Methodist church should work to convert
them. The bishops are of the opinion that
the Church of Rome is snare to the people
and threatens our Institutions.
The struggle between capital and labor is
referred to in the address and it is denied
that the church has any right to take part
in political struggles or had taken part in
them. 1t is advised that steps should be
taken to adopt some regular order .ot wor,
ship so that in all churches the form should
be the same. The bishops severely criticise
secular Sunday newspapers, claiming that
they are of no use and that they are one OF
the means of robbing people of their day OF
rest. The liquor traffic is deprecated and
total prohibition advised.
A committee reported that after serious
discussion they had become convinced that
when the rule was passed, relating to the
admission of lay delegates to the general
conference, the church contemplated admis-
sion of men only as lay delegates. Under
the constitution and laws women are not ELI
gible, aud the committee agreed that
the protest against the ladies should be sus-
tanned, and that the conference from which
they were sent be notified that the seats are
vacant.
The report was signed by eleven members
of the committee, and six members refused
to sign it. 1t was resolved that debate on
the subject be postponed until tomorrow,
when it should be the order of the day. The
conference adjourned for the day at 1.25.

tion at the Opera House this evening. Col.
