BEGINNING WITH A ROW
4 Church Msstin6 In Which All Was
Not Bfolherly Love.
Bishop Esher and His Followers
Are Thrown Out OF the Regu-
lar Conference and Form
Rump House.

CHICAGO, April l0.-The meeting of the
Evangelical church of Illinois conference,
which opened this morning in the Shelf
field avenue church, was inaug,Irated as
anticipated with row. Bishop Esher,
who was regularly assigned 10 preside
over the conference was on hand early
with his supporters. A majority of the
conference decided that he had been dis
posed by the Pennsylvania trial commit
tee and excluded him from the meet
ing. After this there was a most acrim-
onious debate In the church, ending In &,
OF Esher's supporters withdrawing and
going to the First street church. After a
little Formal business the remainder,
numbering 20, took a recess until the
afternoon, at which time, after devo-
tional exercises, they adjourned uu-
Ill tomorrow. The Esher faction organized
and Rev. Mr.. Elfrink made n motion that
notice he sent to preachers in the other
faction that II they desired TO Join the real
and only conference, they will he given
until O'Clock tomorrow to do so. After
that time all remaining out would be ex-
PEELED from the church. Bishop Esher
made statement OF the case from his
standpoint, pointing out that at the first
trial he was acquitted of the charges
brought against him, but that the Pennsyl'
vania conference took tile matter uI
again. He had received no evidence Of
an official character that he had been de.
posed, and he still claimed the right
to tprcsidc at Illinois conference,
from which they had been
driven out. A telegram from Bishop
Bowman at Ackley, Iowa, announced tina,
the "bolters" there were making desper
ate opposition to him, but that he was
holding the fort. This was received will
cheers. Resolutions were prepared by
Rev. Mr.. Wellman, and they were unani
molsly adopted. They sustain Bishops
Esher and Bowman, and condemn ths
action OF the opposing faction in endeav
oring to form an illegal organization n,
revolutionary. The so-called trials o
Esher and Bowman are declared To b,
contrary 10 the directions of the disciplin,
and therefore null and void. A writ o
replevin was sued out To get the books %
| the conference from the anti-Eshcr fac
ton, but when the constable went arount
Chairman Byres and the books had mys
/ teriously disappeared.
