THE PEORIA OVERTURE.

<ss"DAy
ST. LOUIS, May 24.-The famous Pc
oria overture was before the Presbyter-
ian General Assembly today. 1t consists
Of the minority report Of the special COM
mittee on the method of appointment OF
standing committees OF the assembly. 1t
provides that the said committee shall
consist of eleven ministers and eleven eld-
ers, excepting those on mileage and f.
nance, which shall each consist Of eleven
elders.
Rev. DR.. Cornelius, Chairman Of the
committee which submitted the minority
report. defended it warmly. He had not

tinued until tomorrow.
surprise was sprung at the beginning
of the afternoon session by motion by
the Rev DR.. ID. W. Fisher to- reconsider
the action taken in the morning on the
Peoria overture. About ne-third of the
assembly was present. and it was carried.
He then moved that the vote on the over
ture be taken tomorrow morning. After
Rev DR.. Cornelius ard Colonel Rice had
each spoken fifteen minutes. this also
prevailed.
The report from the committee on bills
and overtures was then presented. The
latter part of the report dealt vigorously
with the question of polygamy in Utah
and Idaho. 1t declared that poiygamy is

TO AVOID RACE DISTINCTIONS.
No Change Made In the Freedmens
Aid Society.

No Change Made In the Frcedmen's
Aid Society.
CHICAGO, May 24.-To prevent the
drawing of the color line in the benevo-
lent societies OF the Methodist Church 1t
was decided in the General Conference this
morning that the Freedmen's Aid and
Southern Educational Society remain as IL
is. The organization will retain two sec
retaries who are coordinate In authority.
This decision was reached only after three
hours of debate, in which the Constitu-
ton of the United States. race distinction,
and numerous other matters were brought
into the discussion.
The question as to the number Of secre-
taries for the different benevolent socie-
ties of the Church was placed In the hands
of a committee of fifteen last week, which
made It's report this morning. The report
favored the scheme OF having one execu-
tive secretary with as many assistants as
was deemed efficient. instead OF having
several such officers equal In authority.
Southern delegates, conspicuous among
them the colored ministers. vigorously OPP
posed the adoption OF the report. They
argued that race prejudice would result.
and the great work OF the Southern so-
ciety would be destroyed AS compro-
mise. a motion was made requesting that
all reference to the Freedmen's Aid So
ciety be stricken out OF the report, and
that the society continue as it is. Tho
report of the committe, as amended, was
ultimately adopted, but not until most
vigorous fight was put up.
A motion was made and passed to have
the conference adjourn Tuesday. May 20,
at 1890 p. N.
What was left of tie morning session
after this matter was disposed OF WIS &C.

and two for the Cincinnati concern. The

The south African situation.

: Lord Roberts again has given General
Botha an illustrat on of the fact that the lat
| ter is helpless in any general sense to check
/ the British advance. and that on no military
| reasoning that appears possible can he pre-
vent the investment and ultimate occupa-
ton of Johannesburg, Pretoria. and all other
important strategic points in the Trans
vaal This proposition seems SO undenia-
bic on the face of the situation that We
are confident no strategist OF authority in
American or Europe could entertain any
opinion other than that for the Beers to
continue the struggle beyond the present
point would simply be to sacrifice life and
property uselessly. The possibility OF for
eign Intervention even at this late day may
be admitted, but it is much like the posi-
bility that the world might come to an
end tomorrow.
The latest example OF Roberts astute
turning tactics is presented in the move
ment against the Boer Rhenoster River
line reported in our dispatches today. On
the north bank of the river named, Botha
had constructed elaborate defences. and
evidently expected to offer the British
stout resistance Lord Roberts moved up
from Honing Spruit as il to deliver a from
tai attack. but. meantime, Ian Hamilton
succeeded, with some difficulty and hard
fighting. in capturing Hebron, thereby
threatening the left OF the Boer Army.
The Rhenoster River just west of Botha's
position. takes sharp turn to the north
west. While Roberts was coming up in
front. and Ian Hamilton on the left.
French, with two brigades of cavalry and
one OF mounted infantry. managed to cross
some miles above. thus placing himself in
a nosition to attack the Beers on their
right and in reverse. There was nothing
left for them but retreat, and they retired
toward the Vaal.
II is the general expectation that they
will not make another stand until that line
is reached, but that then they will give
battle. They may. but we hardly look for
any serious engagement even there. They
have not men enough to prevent the sue
cessruI operation of fanking tactics on the
yaal. or anywhere else that we can see.
From Hebron 1t is assumed that Ian
Roberts advances his centre toward the
yaal due north. At Heidelberg the British
right would be able probably to cut off
the Boer retreat from Lairg's Mex, and
this menace is likely to draw off the com
nandos now confronting Butler at that
POINT II they do not leave. they are liable
to be caught between two fires and suffer
defeat and capture. II is in prospect,
therefore. that the army OF Natal will
shortly be relieved OF the resistance to its
advance into the Transvaal. al will then

powerful right wing for Roberts. operating
on a line OF conveyance with the advance
of his centre to Pretoria.
Not much appears to be happening in the
west. although it is probable that when
General Baden-Powell is REINFORCED and
his forces recognized, he may irangurate
a movement from Matching upon Johannes
burg. The Transvael is peculiarly open TO
attack from that direction, owing TO the
