The Methodist conference was in ses-
sion again yesterday, and at the morn
ing meeting the committee Oh interde-
nominational comfy, or church feoera-
ton, rendered its report. The report
was adopted, and by the adoption of it
the conference spread dampness, in
mild form. over the much-discuSSed
federation plan. The report was as fol-
lows:
1--WE note with gratitude every ten
dency towards stronger fraternity
among the various branches of ChriSt'S
church.
I'VE desire a league offensive and de-
fenSive, with all that eXalt our common
Lord. Believing, as we do, that the di-
vine favor has been manifest in the
origin and history of various denomina-
tons, we are not of the opinion that di-
verslty OF operation necessarily antag-
oniZeS the spirit of Christ prayer for
the unity of His church. TO build uD
Methodsm at the expense of sister de-
domination is foreign alike to the spirit
of Wesley and OF Christ. We. as Meth
odistS, stand ready to cooperate with
all Christian people for the suppression
of the saloon; for the defense of our
public schools; for the publication and
defense of our municipal governments;
for the maintenance of our sacred day
of rest and worship. and for the evan
gelization of that portion of our pOpula-
ton which knows not the purer Chris
tan life.
''Whie not willing to assume the out
ward restraints of an interdenomina-
tional court, we cheerfully accord with
the intent. inspiring such plan, and will
cooperate with sister churches in en-
deavoring to keep the unity of the spirit
in the bond of peace"
Rev. E. p. Savage spoke in the inter-
eStS of the Children'S Aid society; Chap
lain McCabe made plea in the interest
OF the church missions and the mission
paper, and Rev. DIR. c. II. Payne. secre-
tary of the board of education, delivered
an address on educational institutions
in connection with church work. Rev.
Forbes made public retractiOn of the
statement made by him OIL Friday, re-
t1ectlng on the official board of the Park
Nj. E. church of st. Paul. Rev. William
Mckinley, presiding elder of the st.
Paul district. and Rev. l.. f. Merritt,
also explained their utterances on the
same subject. Nothing was done in the
matter of DR.. Forbes and his squabble
with Thomas Leybourne, of st. Paul.
The latter gentleman has placed his case
in the hands of attorneys. and it is I'M
derStOod will bring action against the
clergyman for defamation of character.
The principal business of the even
ing meeting was the report of the cabi-
net meeting containing the list of ap-
pointments to charges. There was an
expectation in Minneapolis that Rev.
IL. II. French would be taken from
Wesley church and sent out of the city,
