GREAT INTEREST SHOWN.

Doois1On Of the WOmnns Quoets0n IN
Confsrenoe Attracts s Crowd.
CLEVELAND, o., May 5. The antici-
patton Of disposition Of the woman
question called out large attendance
at the general Methodist Episcopal
conference. The delegates were early
IN their seats and the spectators were
more numerous than on any previous
day. Bishop Merrill Of Chicago pre-
sided and the first hymn was an
nounced by DR.. Hurbut of the Sunday
School union. A fervent prayer was
offered by DR.. Hurbut, after which the
business Of this morning was taken up.
Rev. 81. A. Buchtel of Indiana de-
sired the episcopal address read in
every pulpit. The conference adopted
resolution to send q copy to each
pastor. DR.. Mueller of Cleveland pre-.
sented resolution favoring arbitra-
ton for all English-speaking countries,
which was adopted and copy ordered
sent to the president Of the United
States. -
Willing to Abide the Result.
The exciting feature of the day was
when DR.. Monroe presented to the con-
ference a written statement from four
women delegates. It looked as though
this statement might solve the perplex-
ing woman question, but it did not. It
simply alleged the willingness of the
women delegates to abide by the decis-
ion OF the conference.
No sooner had the communication of
the women delegates been offered than
DIR. Kynett, chairman of the commit
tee on eligibility submitted the major
lty report of the committee.
1t briefly announced that the COM
mittee had decided that the women
were entitled to seats in the conven-
ton. Several delegates arose to de-
tend the report, but there was uni.
versal
Demand For the Minority Report.
1t was lengthy document and was
read by DR.. T. B. Neeley of Philadel-
phia. It found that the challenge of
the eligibility of women whose names
appear on the roll of the general con-
ference, is sustained, and that the cleo.
ton OF women by lay electoral confer
ences are illegal acts and that to seat
the claimants would tend to destroy all
respect for the constitution of the
church, and for the decisions and inter-
pretations of the general conference.
After extended debate on the merits
of the two reports further discussion
was postponed until afternoon, when
it was resumed as special order OF
business. The conference then ad-
iOurned.

papers here were authorized to an
nounce the death Of the shah of Persia,
but without stating the cause. One
newspaper announces that the shah
was out for a walk, felt unwell and

who is credited with having planned to

THE GOVERNOR GUILTLESS.

Sir Hercules Robinson Denies Previous
knowledge of Jameson's Raid.
LONDON, May 5.-At the request OF
the secretary of state for the colonies,
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain, in the house
of commons, Mr.: Henry Labouchere
agreed to postpone until Thursday all
questions regarding the publication OF
the pretoria cryptograms and in re-
gard to the action the government pro.
posed to take towards the British
Chartered South Africa company and
it's directors
Mr.. Chamberlain, replying to a
question, said he had received tele-
gram from the governor of Cape Col
ony, Sir Hercules Robinson, with
reference to the cryptogram, which
have been construed as implying that
Sir Hercules had knowledge of the plan
to invade the Transvaal. The tele-
gram from Sir Hercules is as follows:
II cannot state too implicitly that I
never received from any one the slight
est hint of what was about to occur
and the news Of the invasion of DR..
Jameson came like bolt out of blue
sky. If there should be any insinua-
ton to the contrary, I rely upon you to
protect my charactey in my absence. !"
Chamberlain Believes It,
Mr.. Chamberlain added that he had
explicit confidence in the statement of
Sir Hercules Robinson and he, the Sec
rotary Of state for the colonies, never
for moment believed the rumors.
When Mr.. Chamberlain was cues.
toned regarding the cryptogram from
johannesburg urging that the raid be
postponed till Cecil Rhodes had
pledged that the imperial government
would not assert authority over the
Transvaal in tho event of success. Mr..
Chamberlain replied:
Mr. Rhodes had no authority to
pledge the imperial government in any
way, and he was not aware Mr.. Rhodes
had done So
