Special to the Register.


Cumberland, Nd, May THE ex-
citement here to-day was great when IL
became known that U. S. Martin, who
was a leading member of the city coun-
Gil as well as a Sunday school super
!intendent and leader of the Kingsley
NJ. E. Church choir, had eloped with
the sixteen-year-old daughter of Chas.
Seaber, foreman Of the Times composing
rooms.
Martin is a married man about 40
years of age. He owned considerable
real estate, which he sold before leav-
ing, with the exception of block OF
houses, which was in his wife's name.
When he left his wife early in the
morning he tod her he was going on
a visit to his father at Springfield, w.
Va, on a hunting expedition. He had
mis- gun and bundle of hunting clothes
with him when he left the house. This
was done for az blind, as they were
found in the B. & o. baggage room
this afternoon, where he left them, say
ing that he would call for them later.
The girl was learning to be seam
stress and attended Martins Sunday
school. She left her home presumably
to go to work, but really for the pur-
pose of skipping with Martin.
Ii turns out that they left on an east
bound train. an6 that they had been
meeting clandestinely for some time.
Mrs. Martin is almost wild and has
to be watched, as she threatened to
take her own life. No man in this city
stood higher than Martin.
A report has just reached here that
the couple have been arrested at Wash
ingtOn, d. c., but at this hour the re-
port cannot be verified.
Martins father arrived here tonight
and says he knows nothing OF his sons
whereabouts.
The greatest excitement prevails and
ladies stand on the street corners dis
cussing the matter.

a MILLERs' COMBINE.
An Effort to Be Made to Advance Flour
Prices.

Minneapolis, May 7.-R. D. Hubbard,
the executive front of the linseed oil
trust, has succeeded, with the aid Of the
Pillsburys, in perfecting the organiza-
ton of the greatest millers' combine
ever put together in this country. The
purpose is to advance the price of flour
from the present quotations, to secure
satisfactory rail and water transporta-
ton rates, and to compel every spring
wheat grinder in the country to become
part of the pool There are 500 spring
wheat millers in the United States.
More than 100 have joined the new pool,
which had its inception last fall, reach
ed head last February, and is now a
bona fide organization.
The pool has been incorporated. It's
name is the North American Milling
Company. II is commonly known here,
in ST. Paul, at Duluth and in Southern
Minnesota as the American Milling
Company. 1t is the successor of the
Southern Minnesota Millers' Associa-
ton, of which Hubbard was the lead
ing spirit Representatives Of the trust
here claim to represent 110 mills. nav
ing daily capacity of 10000 barrels.
The whole aim of the organization is
to protect the gigantic Touring inter-
ests of Minneapolis, now threatened by
competition.

valent opinion among operators is that
the big Alex" is close to the gas anti

will probably come in more gas than

Them Eligible to Seats in the
Meeting and They win Have a
Voice----The Question to be Voted
Upon Again by the Churches.

Cleveland, O.. May 7.-To-day's ses-
sion of the Methodist Conference was
presided over by Bishop Foss, and the
devotional exercises were led by Rev.
W. y. Brodbeck, Of Charlestown,
Mass.
As soon as some routine business had
been disposed of. the order Of the day
was taken up. and Dr. w. ]. Kynett,
chairman of the Committee on Eligi5il-
ity. was recognized and presented the
report of the committee. which had
been referred to them by the conference
at Yesterdays session. The cOmmitee
is agreed that the eligibility of worlen
10 vote in this convention is cOnstitu-
tional one. and that the general con-
ference has the power 10 interpret the
constitution. The committee recon-
mends the modification Of the conStitu-
tion changing The qualifications Of
delegate to the general conference by
using the words lay delegate instead Of
layman. thereby making the admission
of women legal. We report further
that this proposed amendment De REFER

lowing year and that two-thirds vote
OF the general conference and three
fourths vote OF the annual conference
no required TO enact this recommends
tion into a law. The report SAYS that
inasmuch as the question has not been
iudiciaily passed upon, those having
seats in the floor can retain them with
out prejudice.

adopted the report of the Committee
on Eiisibility. which refers the woman
