THE BISHOPS REASON.

He ID Said to Have Omitted to Give Any
to Mr. McAllister.
BUTTE. July O.-[Special. The repre-
sentative of the Anaconda Standard at this
place telegraphs that paper as follows: Un-
bounded indignation was expressed by nu-
merous people of Butte to-day. members of
the Mountain View M. E. Church as we'll as
others, at the outrageous treatment ac-
corded Rev. j. j. McAllister at the session
of the conference which has just closed at
Livingston. To those who have learned
the inside workings of the conference it
appears certain that there was more on foot
than the mere removal of McAllister from
the Butte church, It looks very much as
though There was a malicious aim
behind it all. Under the circumstances no
one would have been greatly surprised at
the removal of Rev. Mr.. McAllister. Il
had come to be expected. But the surprise
was that he should be sent to the insignifi-
cant charge of Stevensvil!e.
It appears that up to Saturday morning
the programme at the conference was that
DR.. Raleigh, of Helena, should be sent to
the Butte church and Rev. Mr.. McAllister
should 90 to the Missoula church, one of
the best charges IN the conference. That
was the arrangement in the cabinet up to
Saturday morning.
It is not known definitely that any bane-
full Butte influence was exercised to change
this arrangement, but it is known that on
Saturday morning J. E. Richards and NJ.
p. Sipple, two Of the leading members Of
the Mountain View church, arrived at the
conference. It is also known that some
time between the arrival of these members
and Sunday night q change was made by
sending DR.. Raleigh to'the Missoula charge
and assigning Mr.. NcAllister to Stevens
vile.

poorest. financially at least, in the confer
ence. The salary, including the amount

tion to this the conferences Appropriated

this morning says: Rev. j. J.. McAllister. of
the Mountain View Methodist church, re-
turned to-day from Livingston, where he
had been attending the Methodist confer
ence. When approached by reporter and
requested to make statement with ref

Richards toward him Rev. McAllister
kindly but firmly declined to discuss the
matter, but upon second consideration said:

majority of the congregation regard his ac-
tion toward me as without cause. He was
at the conference, and desiring an oppor-
tunity to vindicate myself, I proposed to
the bishop that Mr.. Richards should prefer
charges, if any he had, but he refused to
meet me in the arena of open discussion

reporter.

>llarkson is preparing a report which
will, 10 doubt, bring the postofice depart
ment and congress to full realization Of the
fact that the northwest. and especially the
Pacific northwest, has been neglected in the
matter of mail service. Since the admis-
sion Of Montana and Washington. more at
tention has been paid to the northwest
than before, az the senators and representa-
tives from those states have had more in
fuence than ordinary delegates. Special
agents have been sent out to report, but the
department. has found that the demands
from Washington and Oregon ~
we'll, were such az to need
further attention, and as CON-
sequence Gen. Clarkson made the
western trip, and has returned convinced
that the wants Of that rapidly growing
country have been very poorly supplied.
Representative Wilson, of Washington,
WAS in consultation with Gen. Clarkson TO-
day, and an attsmpt was made to reach q
satisfactory reclassifcation for tho
postofaces in Washington. II = expectsd
that the entire list will have been gone over
by tomorrow. Mr.. Wilson thinks the
proposition to change the postofice at Ia
coma for tho building Of which PROPOSE
tion was submitted some time ago will be
accepted tomorrow.

Hills friends, however, are not dis

that it was done solely in the interest of

THE FINANCIAL BILL.
Senate Committee Makes Important
Amendments TO the Measure.

WASHINGTON City, Dec. 23.-The Senate
finance committee measure was amended
IN two important particulars al this morn
ing's meeting. The first was the exclusion
OF section of the bill, providing that
when the national bank circulation falls
below $50, 600, currency shall be sup
piled by the issue of treasury notes based
on silver bullion purchases, if silver can
be purchased, or if not by direct specie
notes. The second amendment was the
insertion III place of the section stricken
out of the following:
That the secretary of the treasusy is hereby
authorized TO issue in sum or sums not exceed
ing III the aggregate $2D0OOO,00O coupons and
registered bonds OF United States OF such
form as he may prescribe and OF the denomina-
ton OF $50 some multiple of that sum, redeem
United States on or after July I. 1900, and bear
ing interest semi-annually at the rate OF . per
cent per annum; and that he is authorized to
sell or dSposc of any bonds issued under this act
ut not less than par value, for any lawful money
OF the United States or tor gold or silver certi-
Gates, and to apply the proceeds thereof to the
redemption or purchase of any bonds OF the
United States. and the bonds hereby authorized
and the proceeds thereof shall be used for no
other purpose whatever, and a sum necessary to
pay the expense OF issuing and disposing of said
bonds is hereby appropriated out of any sums of
money i'll the treasury not otherwise appro-
priated.
No vote was cast in committee against
reporting the amendment, but it is under
stood that no one was bound to support
the measure. The Democratic members of
the committee reported as they did in the
case of the original bill, reserying the right
of opposition.
Stewart today gave notice in the Senate
that when the senatorial bill is called up
for consideration he will move an amend
ment To the report of the committee on
tnance by striking out the first, fourth
and NTH sections, and inserting the follow
ing:
That any owner of silver bullion not too base
for mine operations may deposit the same in
amount of value not less than 800 at any mint
in the United States to be forwarded into stand
ard dollars or bars for his benefit and without
charge; and that at said owners option hc may
receive instead an equivalent therefor i'll treas
ury notes.
Senator Reagan today introduced his
free coinage amendment to the Sherman
financial bill, with the intention of apply
ing it to the caucus bill reported this
morning.
