 PATcHoGUE, L. l., April 7.-Bishop Foss presided over the meeting of the Methodist conference this morning. The members of the conference subscribed daughters of the late Rev. G. L. Graves of Middletown, Conn. The Rev. J. s. Wheeler reported on the fund for super annuated ministers. He spoke on the necessity of the fund and was followed by the Rev. Dr. Buckley and others, who ad vocated that pastors from their pulpits ask for liberal donations to the fund to be made. The Rev. J. B. Hamilton was ap- pointed agent of the Centennial Endow- nent fund of the New York Methodist Conference East.
 On resolution of the conference Broth CTS B. H. Allston, E. c. Hoyt, L. S. Bey- lers, F. w. Eruckson and F. O. Logan were placed on the esuperannuated list.
 Referring to the alleged attempt to in ducs the trustees to open museums and libraries in New York on Sundays under the claim that the poor working people would be benefited thereby, Dr. Buckley introduced a resolution that the day should be observed as day of rest and an oppor- tunity for worship; that the results which would follow would be injurious to public morals and therefore contrary to public | policy. The resolution was adopted, as was also the resolution of Dr. Buckley op- | posing the passage of the so-called free dom of worship bill, now before the legis- | lature. It was also resolved to send copies | to the governor and secretary of state and the presiding officers of both houses of the | legislature.
