spent a very quiet day in the city

leave the club the crowd was so large
outside the Beacon street entrance that
the admiral and party stepped out the
rear entrance. They walked through
the Public Garden and nearly to Cop

noticed. Last night the admiral left
the hotel in closed carriage for tho

70 mounted police officers. The crowd

The President and the Methodist
Bishops.
The public mind has been kept busy
during the past month, with additional
facts bearing on the canteen question,
and with developments in the case
against President Mckinley as a prom
inent churchman. Secretary of War
Root, in his annual report to the Pres
ident, by him laid before congress, says
concerning the infamous Griggs decis-
ion, IT agree with the view that this
is the more reasonable construction of
the statute, and defends lne canteen
in manner worthy of Alger, his pre-
decessor.
A press dispatch from Cincinnati
quotes Bishop Ninde of the M e.
church as saying that he understood
that the President had told Bishop
Walden that he did not drink wine
at the Chicago banquet or elsewhere.
But Bishop Ninde, in reply to a tele-
gram from the New Voice disavows
any personal knowledge of the facts in
the case, while Messrs. Dickie and Fer
guson repeat their charges and assert
that the liquids that Mr.. Mckinley
drank on that occasion could not all
have been "appollinaris water, as
they were of several colors and out of
the same bottles as were indicated by
the menu to contain sauterne, sherry
and other intoxicants not all of which
are colorless. Bishop McCabe is
now before the public as defender
of the President in the matter of the
canteen. When, some months ago, we
saw his reported address on the sub
ject, we believed the report was either
false or greatly exaggerated, but now
that he has vouched for it's correctness
we can simply express our disgust.
During the month President Nc.
Kinley gave a reception to the
General Missionary Committee of the
M. e. church A committee was ap
pointed to express to him the Genera
Committees appreciation. This me
mortal, presented by Prof. Upham,
F. Rushing, Bishops Bowman ant
Hurst and DR.. Buckley, spoke of theil
host as "actuated by lofty motives, {
broad minded patriot and a Christian
gentleman and a God-fearing Ameri
can statesman" The committee wa:
appointed with power to act and there

consideration.
The indignation aroused by the Pres
ident's choosing to be the guest of dis
tillers and brewers does not seem tt
have frightened him. The st. Louis
