ference.
Colored Delegates Will Make a Fight
for the Selection of One of
Their Race.

CLEVELAND, OHIO, May 24.-To-mor-
row morning the Methodist conference
will proceed to ballot for a successor to
Bishop Taylor of Africa. The vote will be
taken at half-past 9 O'Clock.
1t is on this election that the color line
will be most sharply drawn, as the colored
delegates are determined TO do all in their
power to elect one of their number to the
position, preferably DR.. W. ]. Z. Bowen,
president of the Cannon Theological In
stitute at Atlanta.
Another colored man who is being con-
sidered for the place is DIR. H. A. Munroe,
who heads the delegation from the Della.
ware conference. His friends urge that
he has the necessary experience, having
been q member of the board of managers
of the missionary society for years and
that he has sufficient age TO warrant his
selection.
About the only white candidate is Rev.
DR.. HartZelI of Louisiana, who has been
for some years secretary of the Freedmen's
Aid and Southern Education Society Dr.
a. b. Leonard has been spoken of. but it
Is not thought that he would accept the
place.
When this matter is out of the way
there remains one matter OF grave i'm
portance to be disposed of. Dr. Buckley
will iDaugurate and lead fight to make
the college OF bishops coordinate in power
in India with Bishop Thoburn. The bel
ligerent little Methodist Pope" seems to
''haye it in" for the missionary Bishops,
and he will try to hold the whip over the
Bishop of India as be does over the college
bishops at home. 1t was due to him that
the conference decided to ignore Bishop
Thoburn's request for another Bishop for
India, land it was du e to him that Bishop
was refused for the South American field.

AWFUL TRIPLE MURDER,
Father, Mother and Son Killed
at a Small Town in
Missouri.
Robbery the Apparent Motive - A
Young Man Suspected of the
Crime Is Missing.

AVA, Mo-. May 24.-The whole Sawyer
family, consisting of father, mother and
grown-up son, were found murdered in
their home, one mile east of this place,
yesterday. Ernest E. Sawyer, the son,
had stab wounds in the throat and right
breast, had both jaws broken, and head
and face beaten to jelly.
He had been murdered in the barn and
the body dragged to the house. The
skulls of both father and mother were
crushed in. Mrs. Sawyer's left arm was
broken, evidently in trying to ward off a
murderous blow. The three bodies were
piled together under bed and covered
with blanket.
The object of the crime appears to have
been robbery. The Sawyers came here
from Linn County, Iowa, last November.
a young man named Perry has been
arrested as the murderer.

stated that the illness which caused his
death was ascribed by his physicians to
his drinking of the waters of the river
Jordan, which he did as matter of re-
hgious devotion, upon the occasion of his
recent pilgrimage TO Palestine. The water
OF the Jordan is by no means pure, and in
the case OF the Archduke it had tendency
to bring on intestinal weakness which
could not be overcome.
An official announcement is made
through the columns of the North Ger
man Gazette explaining that the proposal
in the sugar tax bill empowering the
Bund esrath to reduce or annul the sugar
bounties as soon as other countries take
the same action is associated with the re-
sumption of negotiations with France and
Austria pointing to an agreement to the
gradual abolition of bounties.
France, which has hithereto been the
chief obstacle in the way of the reduction
or the adjustment of sugar bounties, is
now understood to be willing to assent to
the question of q simultaneous reduction
in an International conference.
The Weser Zeitung of Bremen contends
that the sugar tax bill is not a fighting
measure against bounties, such as the Gov
eminent desired, and that the Bundesrath,
therefore, may allow the measure to die.
A contrary opinion is held in official
circles, where it is contended that the bill
will enable the Government to carry out
its matured designs for an international
abolition of bounties at an early date.
The Whitsuntide holidays began with
perfect weather. The sun shone brightly

Excursion trains, crowded. to their ut
most capacity, brought thousands of per-

The National Zeitung, in an article COM
menting upon the coronation fetes at
Moscow, says it is not without anxiety
that England can lock toward the imme-
date future. After the fetes are over, the
paper says, the Egyptian question. which
has been tied up for Russia until the Gear
is crowned, will become acute under
Franco-Russian pressure.

The Republican Territorial election was

the election of Hon. S. G. Johnson and

is silent upon the money question:
WHEREAS, The past year has demonstrated
more than ever before the need of representa-
ton from Alaska in the Congress of the Cnited
States, and feeling assured that when these
ldcts become known tnat speedy remedy will
be given; and, whereas, the isolated condition
of the Territory of Alaska and the great dis
lance from the seat Of Government render it
impracticable for Congress to know the condi-
ton OF the Territory; therefore be it
ReSolUed. That the development of the conn
try, increase OF popula ton and investment OF
capital demand more legislation by Congress,
and we respectfully ask that Alaska be ac-
corded delegate in the Congress of the
United States TO the end that our legislators
may be enabled to act intelligently upon such
legislation as may be needed by the territory.
