ST. LOUIS, June e.-A refusal to con-
tinue the licenses of H. c. Hart and A.
Magyar caused very animated discus
sion at the session of the ST. Louis dis
trict conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church (south) yesterday.
Messrs. Magyar and Hart have
held local preachers licenses for the
past three years They are members
of the First Methodist church of this
city, and received licenses at the re-
quest of their fellow members. For
some time past, however, they have
been touring the country on evangel-
zeal missions and the refusal of their
licenses for the coming year was based
on the position that the church does
not recognize the office of an evangelist.

TIDE OF TRADE RISES,
Advance So Fast it is Feared it
Won't Last.
The Demand for Money is Also
Greatly Expanding.
WILL IT CONTINUE.
Crops May be Too Small to
Sustain Business.

NEW YORK, June S.-R. G. Dun &
Co S weekly review of trade says: The
tide of business is rising, even as it
was falling just two years ago, with
surprising rapidfty. The gain has gone
so far and so fast in some branches
that the more conservative fear it may
not be maintained. But the period of
dizziness which comes in each market
after an unusual rise brings as yet
nothing like corresponding decline.
Industries gain much, halt or fall back
little and then gain once more. The
demand for consumption is steadily in
creasing as the employment and wages
of the people increase. Demand for
money expands, one bank reporting 90
per cent larger in the discounts for
the country, and another % per cent.
more commercial loans than year ago,
and all but two report some gain.
The serious question remains whether
the crop will be full enough to sustain
a large business. But the worse re-
ports to-day are better by far than the
estimates recently current. Wheat
rose 2 cents, fell back with realizing,
and has again risen 3, with a western
estimate of a crop $4,000, 600 bushels
smaller than last year. 1t is per-
tinent to remember that official
and most unofficial reports, down
to late period last fall, put
the yield about so, 900, 900 bushels
lower than it is now known to have
been. Western receipts were 264, 600
bushels more than last year, and in
five weeks have been 1871, OBJ bushels.
against 6,991, $50 last year, while At
lantic exports, -four included, $40. 900
bushels for the week, have been in five
weeks 1913, 1928 bushels, against IL. 945,-
ATS last year. There is neither holding
back by farmers nor anxious haste in
purchasing by foreigners to support
belief in scarcity
Cotton declined an eighth, with better
weather at the south, but excitement
and prices rose again with the report
OF only 11.6 per cent. decrease in
acreage. Much greater decrease has
been considered certain, but condition
is reported less favorable than last
year. With a tenth smaller Weld per
acre and acreage 11.6 per cent. less
than last year, the yield would still
exceed 7,7OO, 900 bales, which, with
heavy stocks carried over, would for
bid the idea of famine. But a late
crop is the more exposed to injury.
June began with 9, 553 1913 bales already
in sight and 3, 3o2, $50 American remain
ing in commercial stocks, while
European spinners held May 1, over l.

He Will Not Call Meeting of the Demo-

PHILADELPHIA, June 8.-Chairman
William f. Harrity, of the democra tic
national committee, has received a
number of inquiries as to whether he
intended to call meeting of the com
mittee atan early day to decide whether
or not national convention should be
called to take action on the money
question. In order to relieve the mind
of anxious democrats with regard to
the matter, Mr.. Harrity has written
the following letter:
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June edo not expect
or intend to call a meeting of the democratic
national committee until next winter, when
it will meet for the purpose of fixing
the time and place for holding the
democratic national convention of 1885,

any necessity for a convention at this time on

rangement of several portfolios, and in
this connection consideration was Civ
en- to the transfer of Secretary Smith
to the department of justice, but
this and other transfers were finally
abandoned and the president concluded
the simplest plan would be merely to
I'LL the vacancy caused by Mr.. Olney's
promotion.
The appointment of Judge Judson
Harmon, of Cincinnati, as attorney
general came in the nature of a sur
prise. His name had not even been
canvassed as among the proba bilities.
There Is the best authority for the
statement the president had several
men under consideration, and the port
folio of justice might have been had by
Mr.. James G. Carter, of New York. who
was counsel for the government in the
Behring sea tribunal and the income
tax cases, and by Mr.. Frederick R.
Coudert, Of New York, had they been
disposed to accept it. Secretary
Carlisle knew Judge Harmon per-
sonally, and both admired and re-
spected his ability. It was he, prob
ably, who first presented his name to
President Cleveland. Ex-Gov. Camp
u
Harmon, also warmly supported him.
and the president also secured from
ex-Gov. Hoadley, of Ohio, who is now
living in New York, and whose law
partner Harmon was, most favorable
reports as to his ability and standing.
After canvassing the situation
thoroughly, the president offered the
portfolio of justice to Judge Harmon
by wire yesterday afternoon, and i'm
medlately upon receiving a favorab1
reply, announced the appoin tments.
THE CAREER OF JUDsoN HARMON.
CINCINNATI, June 8.-When the APP
polntment of Judge Judson Harmon
became known here yesterday after
noon attorneys from the courts and
their offices rushed to the Office of Har-
mon, Colston, Goldsmith & Hoadlev to
congratulate the new attorney-gen-
eral, and ask for date for a farewell
dinner from the bar. Judge Harmon
said he received a letter from Presi-
dent Cleveland and replied to it bv
wire, but he had no knowledge of his
appointment till advised by the press.
He went to Colum bus last night on
professional business, and does not
know when he will go to Washington.
Judge Harmon is not only recognized
as one of the foremost LAWYERS and
jurists of this state, but also as one of
the most popular citizens. He was
born near this CITY forty-ni years
ago, has always lived here and is
known by all. His father Rev. B. F.
Harmon, was Baptist minister Judge
Harmon graduated at Dennison uni
versity, a Baptist institution at
Granville, o., in 1866, and be-
gan the practice of law in Cincin-
natl in 1869. He was a republican
till 1872, when he Greeleyized. AS
democrat he was elected common pleas
judge on the Tilden ticket in 1876 He
was elected superior judge in 1878. re-
elected in 1888, and when ex-Gov.
George Hoadley went to New York in
1887, Judge Harmon resigned from the
bench to become the head of the firm
OF Harmon, Colston, Goldsmith &
Hoadley,' which represents several
railroads and other large corporations,
and with which firm he will continue
his connection.

CLASH OF AUTHORITY.

Two Men Claim to he Warden of the Kane
sas neutrality-suspicious. Must Decide.
LEAvENWoRTH, Kan, June s.-Bruce
Lynch is now fully installed and
equipped as warden of the Kansas
state penitentiary. He is the duly
recognized head OF that institution by
the board of directors thereof, and the
governor and state auditor, and will
exercise the full prerogatives of his
office. For the time being, however,
this state institution will have two
wardens and two deputy wardens, as
both Chase and his deputy, Markham,
refuse to admit that their successors
have been legally appointed.
At lbs p. M. yesterday the peniten-
tiary board, by a unanimous vote, APP
proved the bond of Bruce Lynch, thus
recognizing him as warden of the pen
itentiary. Mr.. Eckert, of the board,
at once notified Mr.. Lynch, who was
outside awaiting the news, and then
Mr.. Lynch went to the penitentiary
to made a demand upon Chase for
possession. Many persons believed
that clash would occur, by Chase
refusing to admit Mr.. Lynch within
the prison walls, but on the contrary,
he extended a hearty greeting to the
new warden, and the two then held a
long and secret conference. It is said
that Chase agreed to step down and
out if the board would agree to audit
his account up to date. This PROPOSE
ton was not entertained, as the
board concluded that such action
would be a reputation of Gov. Nor
rilrs claim for authority to suspend
the warden. Finding that the board
would not enter into any sort of COM
promise, Chase refused to acknowledge
Lynch as his successor, and Markham,
acting under advice of Chase, refused to
recognize Naill as deputy warden. In
this condition affairs now rest, there
being two wardens and deputy war
dens But there is no clash or talk of
physical resistance, and the courts will
have to decide
