RED WING, Oct. 6.-The regular order
of business was resumed at Q o'clock
this morning in the Methodist confer
ence. The subject of the division of
the Minnesota conference came up, and
caused much discussion. 1t was agreed
that, in the present condition, the con-
ference is too large to be convenient
and it was proposed to divide it by a
line running across the state north OF
town 81, east of the Mississippi river,
and l2l west of the river. The discus
sion, however, did not seem to lead to
definite results. A resolution was Of
fered and adopted requesting the con
ference TO establish depository of the
book concern either in st. Paul OF Mime
apOlis. Upon motion of William McKin-
ley the bishop was requested to appoint
ArOn Turner as agent of the Seamen'S
Friends society. The bishop read names
OF persons transferred to or from the
conference. and the transfer of j. ID.
Fry from the Illinois conference was
requested. Resolutions were passed
rendering thanks to the citizens of Red
Wing, and especially to Rev. Ii. S. Jen-
nings, pastor of the Methodist church,
for the hospitality with which the mem
bers of the conference had been treated.
RESOLUTIONS were also passed commend
ing Bishop Merrill for the patient and
