METHODIST CONFERENCE, SOUTH.
Non-Conformance on Organic Union Re-
ported and Adopted.
lBy teIegraph 70 ,hs pl.p.tch.l

ST. LOUIS. Mo-. May 17.-To-day's session
Of the General Conference Of the Metho-
DIST Episcopal Church. South, was the last
az winch new business could be miro
duced, and IL was unusually dull.
The Committee on Fraternal Correspond
ence, 70 whom WAS referred the cOmInunl-
cation asking the General Conference 10
appoint commissioners to meet commis-
sioncrs to be appointed hy the House Of
Bishops and House OF Deputies of the Pro-
testant Episcopal Church for tho confer
ence on organic union, etc. reported, re-
commencing non-coniormance. The COM
inittee hold that the spirit Of the Church
had always been broad and catholic. 1t
had welcomed TO membership all who
wished TO be saved. and had resolved to
tear new leaf without regard to race or
color, and the policy would never be aLan-
doned. As for organization with the me
mOrialists the committee would regard It
rs ma unmixed evil. The Church, South,
had never divided from any Church. The
committee wanted those who had made a
division TO make oycrtUres for reiinIOn.
The vote Of the Conference was unanimous
in favor of the report. A resolution con-
demning Sunday newspapers was referred
TO the Committee on the sabbath.
The following were appointed as COM
mittee 10 formulate declaration upon
worldly amusements: Or. j. j. 1iCert
chairman. Messrs. Rogers, Mays, White
head, Southgate. Wilson, Smart, Ryland,
White. East, Brown, Miller. Magee Chris
tan. and Atkins.
The salaries of the Bishops were raised
from 81 600 to $1,000. the latter to include
travelling expenses.
Dr. Phiipot. y. B. Stone. and Horace
Bishop, Of Texas submitted n long pream-
bic and resolutions against the uso Of to-
bAcco and oplum by church members. and
especially by the travelling preachers and
asking that the Committee on the Spiritual
State OF the Church be instructed to re-
port some suitable deliveraDce on the sub
ject but the matter was quickly squelched
by indefinitely postponnQ il.
