CLEVELAND, May 27.-Bishop Fowler
presided at the NJ. E. conference today.
Surprise was created when Rev. D. Gou-
cher, chairman of the committee on con-

whole matter of constitution, which has
engaged the conference in debate over two
days, be referred to a commission of fif-
teen, to consist of six ministers, six lay
men and three bishops, to report four
years hence.
Lay Delegate Swarthout offered sub
stitute that the question of constitution
be referred to the people for vote, in order
that it might represent the people. The
substitute was tabled. DR.. Goucher's mo-
ton was adopted. Lieutenant Governor
Mansur of Vermont secured the privilege
to make the report of the committee on
arbitration which authorizes the secretary
to communicate with the president and
ask the government of the United States
to enter into negotiations with the powers
of Europe with view of forever prevent
ing repetition of The Armenian outrage.

growers and American manufacturers

the United States government asked
for, and the granting of it's request is
a very encouraging sign that the Span

There is a general idea that the ex-
portation of all tobacco is forbidden
THIS IS A MISTAKE

finest quality of tobacco. which comes
from Havana and Pinar del Rio 1t is
upon this tobacco that the Cuban cigar

SEATTLE, Wash. May 27.-On the
steamer Resale, which arrived from
Victoria this afternoon, were 1O1 sor-
rowful looking excursionists, the hor-
rors of the catastrophe Tuesday being
kept wildly before them by the pres
ence of a corpse.
The steamer had two dead bodies on
board when she started from Victoria.
One was that of ]. A Van Bokkelen,
which was left at Port Townsend, and
the other was that of b W. Murray of
this city.
People up there don't seem to know
anything more about the accident than
they do down here" said Captain c..
w. Ames of the Resale. THE old
building formerly called Market
Square and used as a center for far
mers coming in from the country with
produce, has been turned into a
morgue and as fast as the bodies are
taken from the water they are carried
to the enclosure. Up to the time we
left, about o'clock this morning, forty
nine bodies had been recovered. All
the forty-nine had been identified when
the enclosure where the bodies are
laid out.
IA seine has been stretched across
the river to keep the ebbing tide from
carrying out the bodies, and they are
using the steam power of a pile driver
to work the drags. Estimates made by
people there place the number remain
ing in the water all the way from IS
to 100. 1t will probably be some time
before all are taken out, and probably
some will never be found.
THE people are very indignant over
the accident, and some action will be
taken right away. In every survey
that has been made of the bridge for
the past three years, it has been con-
demned. The car that went in it is an
exceptionally large and heavy one. and
has not been allowed to run for year.
as it was considered too heavy for the
bridge.
THE festivities have all been stop
ped, and the whole town is like one
great morgue. Men and women with
eyes full of tears go running about the
streets, circulating from the river to
the morgue, and back again.
