TACOMA HARBOR LINE
The Northern Pacific's Claim to
the Water Front.
CLASSIFICATION OF RAILROADS.
Warrants for Militia to Be Refused-In-
surance Controversy Ended by with
drawal of the Seneca Mutual.

OLYMPIA, Oct 12Ispecial- 1.-The harbor line
commission listened today 10 en- extended argu-
menf relative 10 the Tacoma harbor line COM
piieation by John Il Mitchell, IT.. in behalf of
the Northern Pacific company. Mr.. Mitchell
based the claim of his company TO the Tacoma
water front from South Fifteenth street to a
point beyond the present terminal grounds, on
the provision of its charter which authorized
the construction OF the road 70 point on Puget
sound. He contended that that conferred the
right TO such terminal privileges adjacent TO
deep water as its traffic might require Attor-
ney-General Jones, who was present at the hear
ing, asked Mf. Mitchell to point out the partieu-
lar language of the act Of congress upon which
the company rested its claim The latter replied
that the charter conferred q right-of-way over
the public domain, and that the public domain
included, not only the public lands, but the
waters within the control of the government
Governor semple, OF the commission, said this
evening with reference to the Northern Pacific
claim:
Mr.. Mitchell advanced the proposition that
the Northern Pacific Railroad Company took a
right-of-gay OF 40 feet in width across the tide
lands as well as uplands by virtue OF its original
charter from the federal government in 1861.
In his argument, as We understood il, he sup
ported the claim both on the rigat OF the fed
eral government per Sc TO create an incum-
brance OF that sort on the tide lands. and also
on the confirmation OF the quasi grant of the
ton in regard 10 tide lands patented before the
admission OF the state.
The commission viii proceed with the con-
sideration of the subject at this session. II is
not likely to concede the right of the company
TO the water front as claimed. but will probably
decide to establish harbor lines without refer
ence to the claim of ownership, leaving the
legal question 10 be settled by the courts.
Representatives of the Tacoma Land Company
and OF the Hanson Mill Company also had a
hearing before the commission today.
Attorney Mitchell has been given until Mon
day next TO file brief relative TO the Northern
Pac!hc's claim.
The commission tonight agreed upon the har-
Dor lines and waterways at Steilaeoom.
In addition to the Tacoma matter the COM
mission now has before it the business of estab-
lishing lines at Olympia, Port Townsend, Ed
monds, Sidney and Gray's harbor towns.
Governor Sempe served notice today on the
attorneys for respondents, in the cases OF the
Columbus d Puget Sound Railroad Company VS..
Harbor Line Commission, and Stimson Mill
Company vs. Har6or Line Commission, Of his
intention to move to have those cases advanced
on the supreme court calendar TOR an early hear
ing. In the last named case the question is
raised as to the right of the harbor line commits
sion to locate harDor lines in front of incorpor-
ated towns.

the aid of woman The way to determine the
proper sphere of womsn's work in the church
was By the same rules that applied 70 man, III
diviiuai fitness for the duties.
Rev. William German, of the Irish Methodist
church, Belfast, made strong plea for women
In connection vita every phase of church work.
Professor J. p. Lanyis, OF the United Brethren
in Christ. of Dayton, O., and Rev. Thomas
Hunt, OF England, spoke in the same strain
Rev. DR.. Devils, of the Methodist Episcopal
church South, said II was fallacy 70 believe
that because large majority OF the people were
hsEkering after thing il was manifestation
OF divine wish. "God created them male and
female" said he, "not female and male"
woman was expected, under divine providence,
to sustain the same relations 70 the masculine
church that she did to the family. not one Of
subordinstion but OF equality in certain lines
Rev. DR.. Buckley, OF New York, said women
could not do the work of preachers without col
lsion with the laws of nature. They must be
mothers or they must be preachers, not both
ST Paul had said they should not take the place
of men.
Rev. DR.. Hass, OF Tennessee, also called atten-
ton to 81. Panl's words, and asserted that IL
God intended man and woman 10 do the same
work, he would have made them alike.
At this juncture Mr. Atkinson, OF England.
proceeded to characterize Dr.. Hass' argument
as logical iuggIery, saying II man and woman
had been created alike there would be no man
or woman He also remarked that DR.. Buckley
had gotten an awful twist on this question
Rev. DR.. Reid. OF the japanese mission, PAID
high tribute TO the work of female missionaries
under his own observations, and Rev. +. w.
Bourne.remarked that he had no patience with a
narrow and bigosed version of St Pauls words
On this subject Several other delegates spoke
on the subject during the afternoon.
Resolutions were adopted approving the pro-
iect TO erect memorial to this council, on some
suitable site in Washington City, in the shape OF
q bronze statue of John Wesley, and COM
mittee. headed by Bishop Fowler, OF san Fran

WOMEN AND THE CHURCH.
A Majority OF the EcumenicaI Delegate
Disagree With st. Paul.

WASHINGTON CITY, Oct 13.-Bishop Bargrove,
of the Methodist Episcopal Church South of
Nashville, Tenn, was resident at today's session
OF the EeumenIcal Methodist council. A reso-
luton referred to the committee concerning
joint action OF Methodist missionary bodies
working in the same fields, was reported back
favorably, and a committee appointed to con-
slider the subject.
The council then proceeded to the order OF the
day. the subject being "The Church and Her
Agencies" the same as that discussed yes
terday.
Rev. J. Travis, general missionary secretary
for the Primitive Church OF England, read a
paper on "Ihe Place and Power of Lay Agencies
in the Church." He said the Methodist denom-
ination agreed that the laity should have
place, but they were far from being agreed as TO
the extent OF their powers, and here is the SUI
preme difficulty to an organic Methodist union
pledged for systematic training OF lay
preachers.
Bishop Ninde, OF Kansas, spoke on the subject
of the deacon movement he said there was
much talk OF woman's unsexing herself and
plunging society into commissions There were
silly women aud silly men. Representative
women could be trusted. Ii we could not trust
our mothers and sisters. In Gods name who
could We trust? lie believed they could be
trusted, and COTS work could never be consum-
mated without their aid.
Rev. DR.. Walters, of London, hoped that al the
next council woman would be permitted TO take
her place upon the platform and address the
conference. 1t was fifteen years since the es-
adjustment OF a sisterhood in England in con-
nection with the children's home, and a
member Of the committee he could bear witness
20 the grand success of tue movement. Rev. Dr.
Apologize. OF New Jersey, spoke OF the agency of
lay workers in the church. great question of
cooperation rests with them.
Rev. Thomas Lawrence, of England. feared
the Methodist church was not raising the num-
Der of local preachers il should. There should
be open alr meetings, and the church should not
lower its flag TO the Salvation Army or any
other agency.
Rev. DR.. A. B. Leonard, of New York. said the
need OF honest work on the part of the laity was
great indeed, and he was thoroughly convinced
the mass OF the people could never be reached
except through their efforts. Every member of
the church mus. come TO consider himself an
evangelist 20 save souls
Rev Dr. Fry, editor OF the Caristi1a Advocate,
read an interesting paper on the subject of
"Women's Work IN Church" In Christian lands
there were thousands of persons who had no
knowledge of Christ A hundred should enter
the work where now one was engaged, and
woman must take prominent part in IL The
church could lot do the work before II without
