saying that he would be here to see

tween Jim Judge and Mysterious

planned by the fact that he and Smith

ing men coming from outside the city

DIR. AUSTIN GRIFFIN
HAS BEEN SELECTED
BECOMES PRESIDING ELDER OF
THE WYOMING DISTRICT.
He Was Until Now Presiding Elder
of the oneonto District-1s Sue
ceeded by Rev. Mr.. Hall, of the
High Street Church, Binghamton.
Latter's Pastorate Will Be Assumed
by Rev. DR.. Dresser, of Dakota.
Appointments Big Surprise--Mr.
Hall Not Known AS a Candidate.

Rev. Austin Griffin, d. D.. has been
appointed presiding elder of this, the
wyoming district, of the Wyoming
Methodist Episcopal conference to
succeed Rev. ]. q. Eckman, ID. D.,
deceased.
DR.. Griffin was until now presiding
elder of the Onenonta district. He Is
to be succeeded by Rev. Mr.. Hall, of
the High street church, Binghamton.
Rev. DR.. Dresser. of Dakota. succeeds
Rev. Mr.. Hall as pastor of the High
street church.
The appointments will create a big
surprise as Rev. Mr.. Hall was not
generally known as a candidate. The
transfer of DR.. Griffin from the Oneon-
ia to this district is thought to be for
the reason that a man of less eXper-
ience could capably perform the duties
of an office peculiar to one of the most
important districts in Methodism, con-
tanning as it does a remarkable wealth
of churches and members.
Bishop Fowler, of Buffalo, on Sat
urday made the appointments but not
publically. Very few persons know of
this result of the two conferences,
among the presiding elders. After their
meeting three weeks ago their choice
was communicated to Bishop Malli-
leau, of Boston. acting bishop in the
absence of Bishop Fowler, who was in
Europe. The former decided to await
Bishop Fowler's return before promul-
eating the appointment.
Evidently the person selected was not
adiudged satisfactory as Bishop Fowler
on his return called another meeting of
the presiding elders at Binghamton
They were in session there last We'd
nesday and the result appears in the
| appointments promulgated yesterday.
