EPWORTH LEAGUE.
Second international Convention on
at Chattanooga.

at Chattanooga.
Chattanooga, Tenn, June 27.-The
second International convention of the
Epworth league is proving as big a re-
ligious demonstration as the most san
guine expected. All the bishops of the
Methodist church are here except
Bishop Vincent. Twenty-Five special
trains bringing 5000 people have al
ready arrived with delegates from
every state and territory in the United
States. Trains bearing 5000 more are
on their way. In addition, special ex-
cursions from the adjoining states will
swell the number of visitors to at least
$1,000. The conference was formally
opened this afternoon in a tent which
has a seating capacity of 10000. The
tent was crowded. An inspiring song
led by a chorus of 1000 voices started
the great convention to work.
Eloquent addresses of welcome were
delivered by Mayor George w. Ochs
and Rev. J. P McFerrin, and fraternal
responses were given by Bishop E. R.
Hendrix, of Kansas City, Bishop S. NJ.
Merrill, Chicago, Rev. DR.. John Potts,
Canada. The conference was then for
mally turned over to DR.. Steel, chair
man of the general committee. AT .
o'clock tomorrow morning three to five
t4iOQoelA40 QGlE5dtGo Will llidhC d pr
grimage to the top of Lookout noun
tain and hold a surprise prayer meet
ing above the clouds. The most signifi-
cant feature of the conference is the
absence of any sectional and denomin-
ational feeling, and the spirit of unity
that prevails.
At the evening session an hour was
given to an old-fashioned Methodist
love feast, led by Mr.. Fitzgerald. of
the Southern church. Chaplain Nc
Cabe, of New York, led the singing.
This was succeeded by a sermon of
Bishop Galloway, of the Southern
church. 1t was the great event of the
day. He held the audience spell-bound
for over an hour and when he took his
seat they cried out, Go on, go onw
The tent rang with old-fas hioned
'Amens." When on the subject Of
missions he exclaimed, 81 have no re-
spect for that so-called religion that
canonizes a man for carrying on the
religion of Jesus Christ in Africa and
ostracizes a man for doing the same
work among the same people here in
America"
This caused tumultuOuS applause.
The night services concluded with
the administration of the Lords supper
by the bishops present and few in
vited elders.
There are 10000 visitors present. Sew
eral large excursions arrive tomorrow
which it is thought will swell the
numbers of visitors to $1,000.

New York, June 27.-The Herald
prints full-page story giving details
regarding the life and death Of Will
lam P. Collins, well-known company
promoter, who was found unconscious
on the night of May q, at the foot
of a stairway of an apartment house
in this city. The Herald states that
information has been presented to the
grand jury tending to show that Col
Inns was murdered. 1t has been
pretty generally believed that Collins
death was due to an accidental fall
on the stairway.
Collins formerly resided in Spring
field, III. Before the beginning of the
Worlds fair, he was in Chicago and
he remained till the close of the ex-
hibition. He occupied desk room IN
the Rialto building, at Pacific avenue

of trade Just what business ne dld
no one knew for certain. But IN
Springfield he was better known:
There he incorporated the Nonparell
Pipe Wrench company, and the North
American Light and Power company
The last named was intended to oper-
ate in Chicago. The capital of the
former was 900 and of the latter

Springfield, Mass, June 2I'-Ihe
Springfield Union says today under

THE RING

Cincinnati. June 27.-The race meet
ing of the Cincinnati Jockey club at
the Oakley race course had a royal
opening today. The attendance was es-
timated at from 10000 to 1900.

,1,iIe and a quarter; guaranteed value
$4,000, Of which $4,000 went to the

Lissak was played heavily from to
3 to to 5, the starting price. They
were forty minutes at the post, the
delay being caused chiefly by the bad
actions of The Commoner, although

once went to the front and made the
pace. For the first half, Brendoo was
second and The Commoner third. The
latter was second at the three
quarters. Simon w. got away bad
last, but went around his field on the
back-stretch turn and the mile had
collared Lissak. The two shot ahead
of the others and both came to q
drive in the stretch. Simon w. chuck
ed it up at the last sixteenth, and the
great black colt, Lissak, came away,
winning easily by two lengths. Fly.

finish and nearly nipped Simon w. for

HERRESCHOFF's OFFER.
Secretary Herbert Declines to Dis
cuSs 1t.


Washington, June 27.-Secretary Her
bert declines TO confirm a report that the
Herroschoffs have offered to build a tor
pedo boat for the navy having a speed of
twenty-seven knots for $150OOO on the
ground that it would not be in the inter-
est of free and fair competition to di-
vulge any information of this kind in
advance of the formal opening of bids
There can be little doubt, however, that
some such prefer has been made, for 1t
is recalled that VIXEN the bids for three
small torpedo boats which subsequently
went TO the Columbian Iron works were
under construction, Mr. Herreschoff as
well as the Union Works. of San Fran
CISCO made a somewhat similar PROPOSE
ton, which could not be entertained ow-
ing to the limit placed on the appropria-
ton by Congress.
In the course OF a few days the navy
department will issue advertisements call
ing for proposals for building three 26-
knot torpedo boats, but MIR. Herreschoff
will not be permitted to bid on either of
these boats unless the department fails,
as is thought unlikely, TO obtain a rea-
sonable bid from builders on the gulf,
the Mississippi, or the Pacific coast.
