BISHOPS.
Proposed Removal of Their
Residences Opposed.
Bishop NInde Argues Strongly to be
Left at TOpekai All the Rest OBJ
Ject-No New Bishops to be Elected
Unless It be a Negro.

OMAHA, NEB., May 1s--The committee on
episcopacy had red hot meeting. The
question of changing the episcopal residences
located at Buffalo, Topeka, Fort Worth and
Cincinnati TO some other cities demanding
the residence of a bishop, came before the
committee and provoked a lively fight.
Bishop Vincent, who resides at Buffalo, OBJ
iected to the removal of the episcopal resi-
dence from Buffalo. Bishop Nlnde was
eloquentiy in favor of retaining the episcopal
residence in Topeka, and his remarks had
marked effect. One argument was that Kan
sas was a prohibition state and had been
made so largely by the Methodist church,
and for this reason he believed the church
should stand by the stale heroically and the
presence of a bishop IN Topeka, he believed.
was an inspiration to the whole membership
of the church IN the state, which was over
5000. The educational work in Kansas al
so demanded the location of the Episcopal
residence there. The bishop held that Bish-
Op GoOdsell, who resides at Fort Worth, and
Bishop Valdez, of Cincinnati also objected
from their cities. A subcommittee brought
IN report taVoring the establishment of
Episcopal residences at Detroit or Seattle or
some other point in Washington, also in
Europe and Japan
The subcommittee on the efficiency OF
bishops reported that all the present bishops
were capable of doing their work, and that
IN the opinion Of the subcommittee, there
should be no more bishops elected at present.
After long discussion without reaching any
conclusion, the committee adjourned to meet
again, when the question of electing
colOrei bishop and the proper change in
Episcopal residences will again come before
the committees.

Another messenger drove in after DIR. Roby,

bowels examined for wounds.
While this was going on, DIR. Tefft arrived
at the house and assisted IN the operation.
The perforated bowel was found and stitched

everything they ask for Were an Indian to

General Wanamaker has sent to Speaker
Crisp letter containing some observations
upon the pOstofnee appropriation bill. The
postmaster general says that the bill for the
fiscal year ending June 90 1888 will seriously
impair the postal service and will result IN
general dissatisfaction throughout the conn
try. He says: II deem it my duty 10 EN-
phasize to you that the Gripping of the one
rations of the depar. ment by withholding
necessary appropriations will not only i'm
pair its efficiency, but prevent the earnings
fOreshadOWed in my report" The postmas-
ter general calls attention to various reduc-
tons in the bill, and shows how disastrous
they will be to the service, and IN concluding
says; II cannot but believe you will share
with me the concern that l feel as head of
this department, that the postmaster general
may not be in position IN 1893 to properly
meet the exigencies with which the postal
service will not only be under in the seyerer
tests of the travelling public attending the

parisOn with that of other countries by ex-
