NEW YORK. May 13.-The board of bishops Of
the Methodist Episcopal church closed its ses-
sion to-day Assignments to conferences were
made and Bishop j. P. Newman was appointed
to visit Japan and hold a conference there in
July.
Regarding the proposed establishment of a
national university in Washington. resolutions
were adopted commencing the project. The
resolutions added; 1T is our Judgment that an
endowment of at least two millions of dollars
and suitable buildings in addition should be
procured before the proposed university be put
in operation.
In view of the local demand in all parts of the
country for urgent needs for already existing
institutions we must look chiefly for proper
endowment OF the proposed national uniVer-
sity to our friends, to whom God has entrusted
large wealth, who may, by the gift of tens of
thousands or even of millions of dollars. for
ward this great and noble enterprise. To such
we earnestly commend the proposed university
and its object, praying God may
open their hearts to the magnificent
opportunity which is offered to them Of doing
what their less favored brothers can not do-of
adding their names to the roll of those who
have been able to do great things for their
country and their race.''

powerful enemy, that is the Hamburg
