Great interest is felt among Methodsts In the
session Of the Newark Annual Conference. to begin
IN the Centenary Church next Wednesday. There
is special interest among women In regard TO the
action of the conference on women representation
in the General Conference as the Conference WI"
vote on the question as to whether or not women
shall be admitted to the General Conference OF the
Church as delegates. The Newark Conference mas
heretofore voted against the women, and the I'M
preston is quite general that 1t will so vote this
week A minister Of the Conference said last week
that he did not think the proposition for women
delegates would get more than one-fourth vote
Women, he said. losing ground in the con-
ferences In the Western States, where tho greater
part Of their support had been About one-half
of the annual conferences have voted thus far, he
said land II the vote continues as 1t has gone up
to the present time, the women Will be deleated py
a large vote. They won In the General conference
last year by n large margin. They certainly VIII
not be as strongly supported In the Western states
as they were last year. For some reason there
has been a change in sentiment out there At first
the women claimed that they had a right TO be
seated as delegates in the general conferences un-
der the existing law. But they have surrendered
that claim, and now appeal for the votes OF the
annual conferences 10 give them the privilege OF
delegates. Their victory in the General Conference
last year was 4 compromise ,-.,.. -
