IT'S CLOSING SESSION.
German Epworth League Convention
at an End.

The closing sessions of the annual con-
vention of the Cincinnati district of the
German Epworth League societies were
held in the First German NJ. Il. Church,
corner of New York and New Jersey
streets, yesterday. Two meetings were
held yesterday morning. At the first Prof
John S. Schneider. of Cincinnati delivered
an address. John j. Kern, of Grand Rap
ids, Mich, preached a sermon appropriate
to the observance of the administration of
the sacrament, which followed the first
meeting.
Yesterday afternoon the church was filled
to the doors. and much interest was mani

spoke on the theme, why 1 Am a Meth

Methodist preacher in the city, delivered a
short address. The German Epworth
Maennerchor led the music, with which the
different exercises were interspersed.
At the meeting last night another large
crowd assembled. The principal address of
the evening was made by Rev. ]. L. Nag

movement, and IL is thought that much
good will come OF ii. The members look
forward to a very successful year.

TO-DAY'S FORMALCALL
WHAT REPUBLICAN SUBCOMMITTEE
WILL TELL THE GOVERNOR.
The Petition and Reply Is. OF Course,
known beforehand - Will the
Governor Wait:

Committeeman George F. McCulloch, OF
Muncie, will come to Indianapolis this
morning, Chairman Gowdy will come up
from Rushvile, and these, with j. w. Fes-
Ter. of this city, the third member OF the
subcommittee, will move on the Governors
Office at noon to-day. \ note viii probably
De dispatched TO the Governor in advance
advising him OF the visit. AS noted on
numerous previous occasions. the purpose
q the visit is to ask the Governor 10 call
a special session OF the Legislature for the
passage of a legislative apportionmelt law.
The ceremonies attending this mission wilt
of necessity be somewhat perfunctory.
The case OF the State committee will be
stated by Mr.. McCuiloch, who will urge
that the Supreme Court has indicated that
the law of IS is defective; that it and the
other apportionment laws upon which the
State might fall back are not adapted 10
present population and other conditions, and
that the holding of an election under
law, admitted on all hands to be defective.
may entail a confusion and anarchy that
would be deporable. The committee will
endeavor to show the Governor that the
only safe way Is to call special session,
and that it is his duty. under the constitu-
ton and the circumstances, to call il. AS
indicating that the committee has nothing
Dut the welfare OF the state 10 SuDSerVe, IL
will guarantee that If a special session is
called no partisan advantage will be taken,
law passed that will be fair TO all parties
concerned. no other legislation will be at
tempted, and. an apportionment bill passed,
the Legislature will adjourn.
There Is no doubt about what Governor
Matthews will do. The question is, how
ne will do it. He will refuse to call the
special session, but whether he will ind-
cate his refusal then and there or take
time to draft a formal reply remains to be
seen. OF course the Governor is already
advised of the visit. In case he announces
crisp sentences, or he may unroll a manu-
script and recite to the committee how the
last Legislature tried to GUST Tim Griffin
and his crew from the custody of the State
house and how they nearly caved in the
ribs of his private secretary on that last
memorable night. How Ii will be done will
be developed when the committee calls on
the Governor at noon to-day.
