THE METHODISTS.
Matters Now Before the General
Conference.
TIE CINCINNATI BOOK CONCERN.

Reception of the Fratcrnnl Dele
o,iist Church-Expressing SatisCac-
ton at Methodist Aid to the Relief
of the Russian SuGcrcrs-Election
of Editcrs. ..=.- ...
OMAHA, May 19.-Dishop Foster was
in the chair ut the general conference.
The 5allarics filed up early as the special
order, the discussion of the time limit
question, was expected to awaken, con-
siderable interest. When the devotional
exercises and the minutes had been dis
posed Of the conference received the fra
ternal delegates from the Independent
Methodist church, one of whom, Hon.
Charles Baker, of Baltimore, read an ad-
dress.
The address was received with hearty
applause. The resolution was then in
troduced, expressing the satisfaction of
the conference upon the efforts of the
fratcrnal delegate from the Methodist
Episcopal Church South and the Inde-
pendent Methodist church, and express
ing hope that in the near future all
branches of the great Method st church
would become one body in the Lord. 1t
was. adopted.
Bishop Foss presented minute which
the bishops desired to have the confer
enco adopt. The resolution expressed
great satisfaction upon the fact that the
American people, and especially the
Methodist brethren, had literally replied
in relieving the Russian sufferers. The
bishops hoped the good work would
ha tri1 boz
people of Russia would be rescued from
the perils of famine by the swift sailing
messengers carrying provisions from
America.
Bishop Foster announced the result of
the last ballot for the second agent Of
the Cincinnati book concern as follows:
Whole number of votes cast, ,431 neccs-
sary TO a choice, 7l5; Curtis, 1873; Stowe,
$50; rest scattering. Mr.. Lewis Curtis,
Of Chicago, was therefore declared elected
as the associate of DIR. Cranston. DIR.
Curtis is in the prime of life, and is u
business man as well as successful
preacher.
Other elections yesterday resulted in
the choice of Jesse l.. HuIlburt for see
retary OF the Sunday School and Tract
society; DR., j. w. Mendenhall, editor of
The Methodist Review; DIR. James Mon
roe Buckley, editor of the New York
Christian Advocate; Arthur Edwards, of
Detroit, editor of The Northwestern Ad-
vocate at Chicago; David H. Moore, edi-
tor of The Western Advocate. Consid-
cradle discussion took place on the re-
port of the committee on iternary, but
noGecision was reached. The majority
report favors the removal of the time
limit, believing Mrthodists could be
better served by the permanent location
OF ministers. The minority oppose the
removal OF the time limit.

AFRICAN TOWNS BURNED.
English Troops Fighting tina Jebu and
Eigba Tribes.

LONDON, May ia dispatch from
Lagos, the British settlement on the
gold coast of Africa, states that the
British punitive force under the com
mand of Colonel Scott, which started
last Thursday to attack the Jebu and
Egba tribes, the chiefs Of which have
blocked the trade routes to the interior,
arrived at Epe, on the border of the
country occupied by the Jebus on Fri
day, after stout resistance by the ma
tives. The Jebus held two towns six
miles inland from Epe, and tho British
at once marched against them.
The British cleared away the brush in
the vicinity of the towns and set them
on fire, This was not accomplished,
however, until after sharp fighting, dur
ing which eight of the native allies of
the British were killed. The loss of the
enemy is unknown. They fought be-
hind barricades of brushwood, and when
they retreated from the burning towns
they carried their dead and wounded
with them. Their resistance was most
stubborn.
The Jebus occupy very important
geographical position, their company
forming "a frontier along the lagoon
giving access to the port of Lagos. The
main road from the rich country in the
interior passes through the Jebu country
and the Jebus, acting in concert with
the Egbas, have levied heavy tolls upon
all trade seeking an outlet at Lagos.
Finally their exactions became SO op-
pressive that the British entered into a
treaty with them, agreeing to pay them
$500 yearly in return for the trade routes
being kept open. This treaty was soon
broken by the natives The result was
the organization of the punitive ex-
petition, which is now in the field
against the two tribes.

STUDENTS RIoT1Nd.
The City of Mexico the Scene of Dis
turbance.


CITY OF MEXICO, May 1o.-Mobs in
the lowest wards of the city started to
plumber under the veil Of the anti-re-
electionists students. A few store win
dows were broken on San Francisco
street, but the police easily suppressed
the rioters. No potent significance can
be attached to these riots. The mob
was composed solely Of Poems, Serious
trouble is expected, but the excellent
police precautions are considered suffi-
cient to prevent any attempt to plunder
The students are partly to blame.
They are mostly beardless boys, ranting
on things they do not understand. Lib
erals and Conservatives alike condemn
their unnecessary exhortations. The
students are being melted by few dem
agogues who are anxious to obtain Of
fees under the government. President
Diaz refuses to proceed to extremes. He
says the boys are ill advised and ire
sponslble. President Daz shows no
fear. His residence is unguarded and
be drives through the streets without an
escort.
Seventy-six students have been made
prisoners. One of the most prominent
bankers and merchants of this city said
that the rows which occurred were un-
important and had no political signifi-
cance. The students do not exceed 400,
and the number of their followers is
even less.

Earthquake Shock in England.

LONDON, May IA rather severe
earthquake was felt in the county of
Cornwall The earth tremblings were
so great that houses rocked to and fro
on their foundations. Crockery was
thrown from shelves and broken, and in
few cases chimneys were overturned.
Most everyone was asleep when the
awakened by the rocking of their beds,
and many of them, believing that their
houses were about to fall, rushed out in
their night dresses. The movement
lasted several seconds, but no damage Of
any consequence has been reported.
