A TERRIBLE TRAIN WRECK.

Killed.

A terrible accident occurred shortly before
! 1o'clock Thursday morning on the Atchison,
Topeka g. Santa Fe at the little town Of Re-
we're in Missouri. The through California
vcstibuled express, due In Chicago at $3.50 d.
M, went through bridge into creek
swollen by the heavy rains Of the previous
night,
When the accident occurred severe storm
was raging and the train was running ut re-
duced rate Of speed. Near Revere is small
stream which the road crosses by means Of q
wooden pile trestle. There was an unusually
heavy rainfall for several hours before the
express was due there and the little stream
was swollen till 1t pressed beyond It's banks.
The pressure Of the water moved the wooden
bridge on u foundation until was out Of Inns
with the track. As the bridge was not washed
away 1t was impossible for the engineer at q
distance to see that there was anything
wrong. The engine left the track and 1t and
the bringe went down Into the creek, followed
by two baggage cars, the mail car, the tour
ists sleeper and Pullman cat. The Cali.
fornla sleeper, the last car In the train, re.
manned on the rails.
The scenes Immediately after the train went
down were awful. The cars were ill filled
with passengers, dozens Of whom were seen
struggling in the water. Those who were
unhurt at once went to tie rescue Of the
others, and messengers were sent to Medill, q
junction town few miles away.
Seven persons, including woman and her

THE METHODIST CONFERENCE.
Tho Twcnty-First Quadrennlal General
Conference Mt Omaha.

The first business session OF the Conference
opened In Boyd's opera house on the morning
of the End. The 500 delegates and largr
numbers of visitors crowded the building.
Bishop Bowman called the meeting to order,
and Bishop Newman read from the Bible fol-
lowing which Bishop Foss offered prayer. s.
d. Monroe Of Pennsylvania was elected secrc-
tary and he appointed Manley .. Hurd Of
Wyoming and Charles Hudson Of Indiana as
his assistants.
After the election Of secretary the per-
manent seating Of the delegates was in order.
Immediately the old trouble between the lay
and ministerial delegates came TO the surface
The lay delegates held a meeting Saturday af-
tcrnoon and decided TO ask the conference to
seat them by themselves, separate from the
ministers, thinking by this means to secure
greater recognition than they now have. AZ
ter heated debate on the subject the petition
of tie laymcn was granted, and the drawing
for seats then commenced. The first allot-
ment drawn was by r. Z. Gilman (c0lorcd) Of
Missouri, who took the best seat in the house;

that seats reserved for them had been occu-
pied by minister's The matter was finally
disposed Of and other business taken up.
DIR. Nicely read the report Of the commits
sion. Among other things suggested by the
commission was n change In the arrangement
Of the discipline. No material change was
recommended In the rules or In the working
OF the discipline, but the commission thought
the book could be arranged to much better
advantage. They also suggested that tho
general conference hereafter meet on the first
Wednesday In May and that laymen mud
ministers vote togcather.
The standing committees were then ap.
pointed,
On Wednesday morning Bishop Warren Of
Denver presided and Bishop Foster delivered
the Episcopal address. 1t states that since
