FREEDOM OF THE PRESS.
A Texas Methodist Says 1t Is the Battle
Cry of Infidelity.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 10.-At to-day's
session of the Southern Methodist Confer
ence the time was spent in receiving and
discussing the report of the standing and
special committees. Bishop Hendrix pre-
sided and Rev. ]. r. Wade. of the West
Virginia Conference, conducted the religious
services. The report Of the committee on
temperance recommended the use of unfer-
mented wine. when practicable. for COM
munional purposes. 1t was adopted. The
committee on fraternal correspondence Of
fered a resolution to the effect that a dele
cation be sent to the Colored Methodist Con-
ference now in session in this city. Mr..
Duncan appointed delegates.
Quite a breezy discussion was had over
the question of withdrawing support from
unconventional newspapers, some Of the
delegates arguing in favor of the freedom
of the press. as exemplified in the privilege
select and others arguing in favor of the
freedom of the church and compel members
to support correctional papers. During the
discussion Judge Parkins, of Texas. made a

cussion Judge ParlSins, of Texas.z made a
speech which elected much applause. Talk

the Judge. HAS not the church any free

LOOTED BY ROBBERS

Cleaned Out by Armed Men.
Four Citizens Shot by the Desperadoes,
Who. After Securing the Money.
Left for Indian Territory.

NOEL, No., May 10.-At 8 o'clock this
afternoon seven armed men with Winches-
ters and revolvers. rode into Southwest
City, No., and robbed the bank, getting all
the money the bank contained, between
5000 and $1,000. Tney did the job in a
very business like manner. Two of them
were stationed on the sidewalk. three en-
tered the bank with a sack and two others
guarded the horses. About one hundred
shots were fired by the robbers and four
prominent citizens were badly wounded.
]. c. Seaborn and o. L. Seaborn were both
shot through the groin; Mart Hembree had
leg broken by bullet, S. +. Mutton,
United States marshal, received a flesh
wound IN the leg. The robbers were about
ten minutes going through the bank. After
wards they mounted their horses and start
ed for Indian Territory at a full gallop.
AS they were leaving the outskirts OF the
town some one fired several snoss, Killing
a horse and wounding a robber. The latter
Immediately secured another horse from a
farmer who was passing and followed his
pals. No resistance was offered by the
citizens. The wounded men were shot while
standing on the sidewalk. A posse was
made up and have started in pursuit but
the robbers have good lead and will prob
ably get away.

ECONOMIES SELLING OUT.
1t Is Believed the Harmony Society Is
in the Last Stages of Dissolution.

PITTSBURG, May 1O.-with a member
ship OF only eighteen, many OF whom are
old and infirm. and a refusal to take in
new members it looks very much as If the
Harmony Society. OF Economy was in the
last stages OF dissolution. A significant cir
cumstaRce has developed The Economics
are selling off everything that is salabIe.
They have sold their timber lands and por-
tions OF their real estate in Allegheny and
Beaver counties. Formerly they owned ex-
tensive forest areas in jefferson and Clear
field counties and in Wisconsin and Michi-
gan. All this has gone to pay off the enor-
nous debt of $l.7OOOeo. which piled up on
the society in the past ten years.
Trustee John S. Duss was asked to-day:
DO you expect to dissolve the society
soon?"
That is in the future" replied Mr.. Duss.
s,.M W ouid the property of the society be
divided among the remaining members in
case you dissolve the concern?'
Mr.. Duss would make no direct reply
20 thls lie also refused TO say whether
the society expected to migrate to anoth-
sr part or the country after its affairs
were untangled.
Mr. Duss has succeeded in reducing the
society'sJ debt TO 100000. This is in the
shape Of mo<tgage held on the Econo-
burg. He is endeavoring TO Iini,idate tbis
obligation, although it is fully covered by
the three thousand acres of valuable land
the bulk Of the society's assets In the
course of settling up the affairs Trustees
Duss and Riethmiller have come across
some astonishing facts. They have found
. that blocks Of railroad stock and other Sc
curitieS in which the society's funds had
been invested Were, 10 a large extent, of
little value. Other stocks which were
locked away years ago because they were
considered worthless. have been found TO
have risen in value. II has been found
that lavish sums were borrowed on the So
ciety assets in the last ten years, and
should the details ever become public they
will make decidedly interesting reading
Among the assets of the society is the con-
trolling block OF stock in the CHARTERS
Coal Company. Three years ago the COM
pany was heavily in debt. Since then, S75-
900 OF the company's indebtedness has been
paid off
The trustees of the society have staked
out their remaining possessions In lots.
They propose not TO sell until they can
get good prices for them. When this real
estate Is sold the society will be out of
house and home.
When il came to Economy in 1925 the So
ciety had eight hundred members Now IL
has eighteen. Three years ago il employed
four hun9red farm and mill hands. Now
II employs less than one hundred men
Ever since John :. Duss. the present am
bilious se-.'or trustee. took hold OF it's af-
fairs he has been clearing the ground for
q dissolution OF the society or its re-estab-
lishment new basis.

Archbishop Ireland Addresses the

Grand Chief Arthur Reviews the Work
of the Past Two Years-Effect of the
Coal Strike on the Iron Trade.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, May f0-The Met
ropolitan Opera House was handsomely
dressed with flowers when the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers met this after
noon, and every one of the two thousand
seats were filed. The exercises were very
interesting throughout but the address Of
Archbishop. Ireland was the feature of the
meeting. 1t contained some strong talk on
the labor question. Welcome addresses were
delivered by Mayor Wright for the city,
Attorney-general Childs for the State of
Minnesota, Archbishop Ireland and others.
Grand Chief Arthur closed the session with
his biennial address. After some general
remarks on the prosperity OF the brother
hood Mr. Arthur referred to the depres-
sion in general business, and regretted that
many of the people would fail to learn
the lesson of individual economy that
should be taught by their experiences OF the
past. With that lesson learned the people
would be less in a position to suffer from
the fluctuations of trade During the past
two years the brotherhood has paid 405
insurance benefits to the amount of $943 200,
making a total of S4,I21,369 paid to widows
and orphans since the brotherhood was or
ganiZed in 1861. Thirty-eight subdivisions
have been added since the last convention,
making total of 525 subdivisions, repre-
senting 5000 members. All differences OF

THE IRON TRADE.
The Coke and Coal Strikes Forcing
Prices Upwnrd.

Prices Upward.
CLEVELAND, o., May 10.-The Iron
Trade Review says: The effect of the coal
and coke strikes upon the iron trade in re-
stricting production and, in some depart
ments, in advancing prices, is more and
more marked. A transaction in Bessemer
pig at s12, Pittsburg, and bllets at s17.75
gives some idea of the jump that has been
made in week. Among foundries the
scarcity of coke and the high price of the
little obtainable has compelled a shorten
ing of operations. and thus consumption
as well as production OF pig iron is lessened,
though il is evident that the latter is much
more cut down than the former. There is
thus far no change in prices of foundry
grades, and transactions continue the
retail scale that has plagued furnace men
for these many months. Billets are we'll
nigh unobtainable for prompt delivery, and
prices have advanced, sales OF small lots
ranging from $l7.25 to $l7.75. In the East
spot deliveries command s19. Mills that have
natural gas or are equipped for oil have
profited by the coal strike, and, on prompt
shipments, have been able to get a trihe

exception Of bar iron, which shows no sign
of strength. Eastern mills that are able to
get fuel have had good run of business.

Little complaint has been heard of late in
the East and the Central West about un-
even adjustments of railroad rates on iron,
but some lively cutting has been going on
