HILL WORK IN OHIO.
The Senator's Friends Accused of a
Peculiar Apportionment
GIVING THEM MORE DELEGATES.
Warwick Doesn't Think He Will Have to
Run for Congress Again,
MORGAN NOT BEING so HARD TO BEAT

COLUMBUS, O., May 9.-[Specsal 1.-The
Cleveland Campbell crowd are terribly ex-
ercised over what they claim Is trick Of
the Hill men to edo" them at the Demo-
cratic State Convention In this city, on
June Il and 10. When the Democratic
State central committee met to fix the time
and place for the convention O few
weeks ago, 1t was supposed that
the representation would be one delegate
for each 800 and fraction over $50 votes cast
for James e. Campbell for Governor last
year, but 10 and behold, when the call ap-
peared In print it was found that the appor-
tionment was fixed on the vote of 1889, the
year Governor Campbell was elected, when
a very large Democratic vote was cast, and
not last year, when he was defeated on q
light Democratic vote.
The meat in the cocoanut lies in the fact
that Cincinnati and Hamilton county, under
the apportionment of the call, get 50 dele
gates instead of about 58, and it is said
these men will all be anti Cleveland. The
same rule will work the same way in other
parts of the State, and 65 delegates will be
gained for the Hill faction-so, at least, the
Cleveland men say,
1t is not known why the 1889 instead Of
the 1891 vote was taken as basis for ap-
portionment, unless it was to make better
showing for the Democracy-a larger con-
vention, etc A committee was appointed
to apportion the vote by counties, but 1t is
not known that any particular year was
mentioned, although it is customary to
take the latest election vote in the appor-
tionment for delegates Chairman Norton
laughs about the matter, and says that it
does not make much difference, as Ohio will
be all split up anyhow.

TOM HAS THE DOCUMENT IS

To Prove That Mrs. Drsyton Has Been
Most Cruelty Wroneed.
LONDON, May 9.-Colonel Thomas
Ochiltree has been confined to his lodgings
for IS days, suffering with the gout. He
will be able to go out tomorrow. He de-
cllnes to give interviews to any one on the
Drayton-Borrowe affair. He says he be-
leves, in view of the deep affection that
surrounds the Astor and Drayton families,
it would be unseemly and cruel to further
revive the incidents.
Referring to the statement published in
the United States and attributed to him,
alleging that he possessed information that
would clear Mrs. Drsyton which he would
publish if the squsbble continues, Colonel
Ochiltree SAYS that he never made such o
statement On the contrary, he fully be-
lieves that'Mrs. Drayton needs no e1oulps-
tion. He added that from documents in his
possession he knows absolutely that she has
been cruelty wronged. Those documents he
says he will not publish unless Mrs. Dray-
ton authorizes him to do so or he Is compelled
to do SO by course of law.

tine Episcopacy, offered resolution for
proposed amendment to the Constitution OF
the United States. 1t relates to protection
of the public schools in the United States
against religious encroachments and to de-
fine the attitude of the churches with rela-
tion to schools. The resolution was adopted
amid applause.
DR.. King also offered resolution declar-
ing that appropriation of money by the ma
tional Government for ecclesiastical educa-
tion was not in accord with the principles
of the Constitution, and that the churches
should refuse to receive money from the
Government for the education of the In
dians DR.. King spoke earnestly upon the
subject, stating that all the churches had
been getting assistance from the Govern
ment in their Indian work. He believed it
a wrong princip pie. The Catholic Church,
he said, had received over $4,000 He
wanted the whole contract system between
the Government and the Church wiped out
The resolution was carried unanimously.
DIR. W. F. Moulton, the English frater-
nal delegate, being obliged to leave for
home, was requested to give the conference
q parting word. He made an eloquent ad-
dress. After waive of applause, the con-
ference arose and sang "Bless Be the Tie
That Binds" An appropriate response to
DR.. Moulton's address was made by Bishop
Vincent.
Ministers Want to Keep on tho Record.
An invitation from the Methodist Union,
of Cleveland, O., was read requesting that
the General Conference be held in that city
four years hence. Referred to the Commit
tee on Conference Entertainments.
DR.. Mcdowell, of Philadelphia, offered a
resolution proving for a change in the rules
by which neither the laymen or the minis
ters, when voting by call of the orders, that
is separately, should have power to demand
a call of the roll of opposite order, wished
to be placed on record. The resolution, if
adopted, would not permit the laymen to
compel the ministers to go on record or the
ministers to put the laymen on record
against their will DR.. Buckley, of New
York, was in favor Of the amendment. DR..
Lawrence was very much opposed to 1t. A
hot discussion followed, in which number
of laymen spoke against the amendment.
The vote of the laymen on the resolution
stood: Yeas. 81; nays, 113. The minister
ial vote stood: Yeas, PIG; nays, 48. The
amendment was lost, as the two orders
failed to agree.

WOMEN AND DANCING
The Two Topics Which Agitated the
Methodist Conference.
A MOVE IN FAVOR OF PLEASURE
Started in New York With the Approval
of Bishop Foster.
MINISTER'S SCHEME TO COVER RECORDS

OMAHA, NEB., May 9-Women and
dancing were two of the topics that agitated
the Methodist Episcopal General Conference
to-day. Committee membership was de-
manded for the former and young members
gave decided indications of desire to enjoy
the latter. The woman question was
sprung in the form of a resolution by j. B.
Maxwell, of Nebraska, asking that they be
admitted to full participation in the doings
of the General Missionary Committee. The
resolution while exciting much interest was
referred under the rules without discussion.
The project to mix terpsichorean gaiety
with piety came in the shape of a memorial
from the Troy Conference, petitioning the
General Conference to expunge from the
discipline section 242, relating to amuse-
ments, or at least asking that it be modified
SO that dancing may be permissible. The
memorial is signed by Rev. William w.
Foster, Joel w. Eaton, William b.
Hughes, John W. Thompson, E. P. Stew
ems, E. E Sawyer and several others, all Of
New York. Bishop Foster, of Boston, ap-
proves the movement and has given it his
official sanction, and will advocate Its
adoption. The memorial is now in the
hands of the Committee on Discipline, to
whom it was referred.
A Bishop to Be Called Down.
Dr. Hammond, of San Francisco, offered
a resolution referring to the entertainment
of the next General Conference. A commit
tee was appointed to consider the subject.
A resolution was offered calling upon the
Committee on Episcopacy to ascertain If
either of the missionary bishops had or
dained anybody outside of the special ter
ritory to which they have been assigned
and if so by what authority they had done
So The resolution was referred to the
Committee on Episcopacy.
This will doubtless touch the action of
Bishop Taylor, who, it is said, ordained
minister while in England. His authority
extends only over the work in Africa.
William Deering, of the Rock River Con-
ference, was added to the Committee on
Equalization. Amos Shinkle offered a reso-
luton to fix the time for the election of
officers for Tuesday, May II, and it was car
ried. This, it is thought, will start inter-
est in the work of electioneering, and from
now until May II work of building fences
will be pushed with great vigor by the can
didates.
A resolution was offered calling for an in
vestigation into affairs of Grant University
at Chattanooga. 1t was alleged in the reso-
luton that this institution has squandered
great deal of money, and kept in employ
ment larger faculty than necessary to do
the work Of the institution. The resolution
was referred to the Committee on Freed
mans and Aid and Southern Education
Society. DR.. ]. F. Spence Is President of
Grant University, and will probably defend
the management when the proper time
comes.

A Peculiar System OF Bookkeeping in the
Allegheny Controllers Offce-Books
Do Not Balance by Nearly Two Millions
After Rippey's Money.
The regular meeting Of the Allegheny
Auditing Committee was held last night.
AS no meeting of the subcommittee had
been held owing to the lack of quorum,
the report of the auditors, Bigger and Nc
Kirby, was presented direct to the general
committee. The report was concerning the
bond account of the city kept by the Con-
troller, and was read by Chairman Gill;
ford. The report was as follows.
Your auditors would respectfully report
that we have finished our examination of
the bond accounts Of the city, and find that
the proceeds OF all bonds sold, beginning
with what were called foreign bonds" in
ls49, to the present date, have been paid over
that from the year 1850 to the year 1870 bonds
have been issued amounting to considerable
sums, from which the city received no cash.
These bonds were issued to contractors in
settlement of their claims against the city.
These issues have been properly authorized
by Councils, proper entries or explanatory
entries have been made on the Controllers
books, consequently we believe they are
correctly accounted for.
As to the manner of keeping the bond ac-
counts in the Controllers books, we would
kept in an intelligible manner the entries
have not been made correctly and in order
to keep the accounts right only certain en-
tries or one side OF certain entries were
posted to the ledger.
Continuing, the report cited items from
the books as examples to show that while
all the proceeds from the bonds etc., were
accounted for, the bookkeeping was not in
proper form. Occasionally debets got on
the credit side of an account and so on,
making wrong appearance, though the
accounts were correct.
Auditor Bigger stated there was no short
age, but on account of defective bookkeep-
ing the accounts dc not balance by 81, ,9O0,-
600. A discussion arose as to whether the
office was all right because there was no
shortage. 1t was ended by some one calling
up the Rippey shortage, and the Controller
said the matter was in the hands of the City
Solicitor. The auditors will next inspect
the interest account.

BILLED AS A YOUNG JAP.

Circus 'Proprietors Charged With Aiding
GAINESVILLE Infrmary Without Con-
sultins the Parents.
There will be rather important hearing
before Magistrate Succop this morning. R.
Harris, S. j. Ford, Prince Kokaine and T.
K Burk, proprietors and principal en-
ployes of the Burk & Ford 1O-oent circus,
have been arrested on charge of abducting
minor child, and are under
bail to the amount of S105 each
for a hearing to-day. The details
as told by Agent Mcdonald, of the Anti
Cruelty Society, who is the prosecutor, are
as follows:
About three weeks ago the Burk & Ford
show was In GAINESVILLE, o. An agent rep
resenting the concern went to Superin-
tendent Meershaum, Of the inirmary, and
represented that they wanted O child
to take to their home, which they
said was at Chester, Pa, where they said
they kept grocery store. Mr.. Wylie, a
member of the board, without consulting
the other members, allowed the child to 90
out Shortly after the parents of the boy,
who was only 9 years of age, became
alarmed and complained against the
actions of Mr.. Wylie. The matter
was reported to the authorities, and 1t was
not long until the child was located. When
Burk & Ford's show arrived on the South
side yesterday Agent Mcdonald and In
pector Kelly were at Twenty-second street
waiting for them. Learning that the
people connected with the show were
qusrtered at the Hotel Arthur the officers
went there and found the missing
child. He was taken in custody and an
information made against the four men
named, charging them with aiding and
abetting the abduction of a minor. The
boys name is Francis Evans, and he was
billed as the child of Japanese woman.
j. H. Evans, President of the Board of
Directors of the GAINESVILLE Inhrmary, will
appear against them at the hearing this
morning.
