 Boston, May 7-Evidence has been found which seems to be proof of Adah Richmond's statement that she was the first wife of the late millionaire mana ger, John Stetson.
 A deed has been found among the public records that was signed by Adah Richmond as Stetson's wife.
 Stetson's last, and as we supposed, his legal wife, died suddenly but a few days after Stetson himself, and her funeral was held in this city yesterday from the Little Church Around the Cor ner.
 A bitter legal war Is likely to be waged by Stetson's father, the heirs of Kate Stokes Stetson, who was buried yesterday, and Adah Richmond, for the half million or larger estate left by the manager.

 Cleveland, May 7.-To-days session of the Methodist Episcopal conference was presided over by Bishop Foss and the devotional services were led by the Rev. w. N. Brodbeck of Charlestown, Mass. As soon as the routine business had been disposed of the order of the day was taken up, and Dr. w. J. Ky nett, chairman on the committee on eligibility, was recognized and present ed the report of the committee on the reports which had been referred back to them by the conference at yester- days session.
 The committee, he said, was agreed that question Of the eligibility of wo- men to vote in the conference was a constitutional one, and that the gen. eral conference had the power to inter- pret the constitution. The committee recommended the modification of the constitution changing the qualified tions of delegate to the general con- ference by using the words lay dele gate instead of layman, thereby making the admission of women legal. The committee reported also in favor of referring this proposed amendment to Che annual conferences of the following year. and that two-thirds vote of the general conference, and a three-fourths vote O. the annual conference be re- qu1red to enact this recommendation into law The report said that inas- much as the question had not been ju- dicially passed upon, those having seats on the floor could retain them without prejudice.
 AS soon as the report was completed Dr. kynett said that neither party gave in on the principle held by it, and neith- CT majority nor minority surrendered It was concession by both parties pr. Kynett said there was rumor that great pressure had been brought to bear on the women to retire. The com mittee believe that no pressure should be brought to bear on them which would conflict with their duty to their con- stituents.
 By vote of 425 to 9S the conference adopted the report of the committee. This has the effect of referring the ques- tion back to the churches to be voted on again.
