Sensation at Colorado Methodist
Conference at Denver.
SERIOUS CHARGES MADE
PREACHER SAYS BISHOP WAR
REM GIVES WINE SUPPERs.
Also Declares That Presiding Elders
attend the Theatres, and That
One Minister breaches With a
Sung Shot In His Pocket and
Fires at Congregation.
(special to The Herald.l


Denver, Colo, Sept. AT the close
Of the mornings session of the Colo
RADIO Methodist conference, there was a
disturbance on the same order as that
of the Sunday morning revival service.
when the Rev. F'lorid F. Passmore,
expelled three years ago from the con-
ference for making charges against
other preachers, rose and denounced all
the high lights of the church with
burning imprecations, and was forcibly
removed.
After the bishops benediction this
noon the Rev. Mr.. Fassmore rose from
his seat in the room, and exclaimed.
in ringing tones, drowning the buzz of
voices in the house:
Il am told that Bishop Warren gives
wine supppers, and that your presiding
elders attend the theatre, and that one
of your preachers breaches with the
slungsllot in his pocket, and, after the
sermon, shoots with it at members of
his congregation who do not please
him."
The Rev. Mr. Harmed shouted: DO
You believe, Brother Passmore, that
one must necessarily be a criminal to
be a member of this conference"
No; but I believe l could not con-
scientiously belong to this conference;
not a man can belong to it and preach
according to his conscientious convic-
tons. You can't go and preach to the
people on a lower strata and ignore the
sins CT the people above you"

TO BLOCKADE THE PHILIPPINES
Matter That Is Giving the War De-
partment Some Concern.

Washington, Sept 5.-The matter of
making an effective. blockade in the
Philippines and especially around the
island of Luzon, SO as to prevent the
insurgents from obtaining ammunition
and supplies, is giving the army con-
siderable concern. 1t has not been
deemed feasible to proclaim a blockade,
as it would indicate state Of war anu
possibly, open way to the recognition
of the insurgents.
Whether or not it is feasible to at
tack, subdue and garrison all the ports
of Luzon which might serve as ports of
supply for the Filipinos has not yet
been determined. Heretofore there
have been sufficient troops in Luzon
to make this possible and the question
will now arise whether troops had best
be spared for this purpose.
The president has been advised that
the navy should be utilized for the pur-
pose of preventing the Introduction of
contraband Of war and supplies for the
Filipinos. At every port a naval vessel
had been stationed and under the mill
tary law of the island every incoming
vessel could be made to exhibit its
manifest. One trouble about carrying
out this plan is the fact that there IS
not sufficient number of light draught
vessels to go into all the places where
the F'ilipinos can receive their supplies.

Favor of This City.

Important Competitor = Today

Special to The Herald.l

Philadelphia, Sept. 5.-Utah's de,ega-
ton has opened headquarters at the
Colonial hotel and is making strong
play for the thirty fourth annual ses-
sion of the Grand Army encampment
next year. Already a sentiment is
growing in favor of Salt Lake City but
the great argument used by the eastern
men is that the trip is too long and the
fare too large for a majority of the
members of the order.
Chicago delegates are putting in a
great bid for the honor and have freely
distributed yellow badges with Chi
cago, 1900" printed upon them in the
hope of winning the prize. Sentiment
has not yet crystalized in favor of any
other place but ii is assured that Salt
Lake and Chicago are the principal
competitors. Tomorrow will probably
show which place has the lead but with
ihe two parades of Monday and today
little could be done in the way of
electioneering for either place.
Tonight. Utah's delegates are at work
and seemingly making good progress,
having many inducements to offer to
the veterans next year.

sprinkler from Fort Douglas came
down yesterday afternoon and allayed
some of the flying evil. If Lieutenant
White. the commander at the fort,
wants to become more popular with
the boys, he should send down the
sprinkler about six times each day.
There were many sore backs and
aching bones when the first call for re-
veille sounded yesterday morning at
5:45. For there were hard beds at the
camp Monday night, and a very small
amount of covering. Hay to soften the
rigors of the uneven, stony ground had
been provided, but not enough to go
around, so many of the soldiers found
it necessary to spread their blankets
upon the rough ground. Some had but
two blankets, and many fellow shiv-
cred and shook through the night

END OF AN IDAHO BAD Man
JOHN PHILLIPS Is MoRTALLY
WOUNDED NEAR. HALEY.
Was Making a Gun Play When the
Weapon Was Taken From Him
and He Was Shot.
Especial to The Herall.l

Haley, Ida. Sept. 5.-Last Sunday
night about 8 o'clock at Soldier, about
thirty miles from this place, John Phil
lips was shot and mortally wounded
by Joe Jones.
Jones and Bert Phillips, brother of
the man who was shot, engaged in a
fist night, in which Bert Philips was
badly worsted. Jahn Phillips then pro-
cured a gun, walked up behind Jones,
placed the muzZle against Jones side
and fired. The ball passed through
Jones clothing and merely broke the
skin.
I Jones then grappled with Phillips
and, taking his gun away from him,
fired, the snot taking effect in Phillips
body above the hips. AT last accounts
Phillips was very low and the attend
ing doctor pronounces the wound fatal.
Jones is under arrest but the opin-
ion of those who witnessed the affair is
that the shooting was justifiable.
This is the John Phillips who, four
years ago, shot and seriously wounded
w. Y. Perkins in a fight at Soldier. He
has always been considered tough
citizen.
