METHODIST CONFERENCE.
The Report Of the Committee ON the Or.
gauic Law Of the Church
Considered.

Chicago, May 9.-The matter of i'm
portance before the general confer
ence yesterday was the report Of the
committee on the organic law of the
church. This committee was ap-
pointed by the general conference of
1896, and was made up of two bish-
ops, six ministers and three laymen,
among whom were the leading con-
stitutional authorities in the church.
1t has had several protracted sessions
in which according to its secretary,
Rev. 0. W. Smith, Of Pittsburg, every
question bearing on the subject was
submitted to the most careful scru-
tiny.
The real work of the commission
was to decide on what is the organic
law of the church-or, in other words,
what is the constitution. 1t seems
strange that great church could
have permitted almost century to
pass without deciding so vital ques-
ton. But it should be remembered
that the Methodist Episcopal church
was organized under the direct au-
thority of John Wesley, who gave it
its doctrines and rules. To these
have been added from time to time
such legislation as seemed to be
needed to interpret and carry out
their spirit. The constitution has
therefore been a growing one whose
limits have never been clearly de-
fined.
The report names as the organic
law of the church the articles of re-
ligion, the general rules as they APP
peared under the head of "the gen.
eral conference 1t is the opinion
of Bishop Merrill, the oldest consti-
tutional authority in the church, that
this report is the most important mat
ter which Will come before the gen.
eral conference at this session.
Only the first paragraphs of the re-
port were considered by the confer
ence yesterday. One of these served
to show the sentiment relative to lay
representation in the annual confer
ence. 1t is clear that this will be re-
sisted by the ministry.
Without the formality of a resolu-
ton or vote, the committee on freed
mans aid yesterday took stand as
opposed to the consolidation of that
society with the missions and church
extension societies.

THE EIGHT.HoUR DAY.
Chairman Gardner. OF the House Commit-
lee on L Dor, Makes Repo on
the subject.

Washington, May 9.-In view of ,he
recent eight-hour movement through
out the country, the report made to
the house of representatives yester-
day by Chairman Gardner, of the COM
mittee on labor, on the Gardner eight
hour bill and the general subject of
eight-hour legislation, fas a timely
interest. The bill requires a clause
in all government contracts that the
labor under contract shall not, ex-
coed eight hours daily. The report
says in part: ut is commended by the
advocates Of the shorter day that the
additional leisure given to labor in
every instance of the shortening of
the workday, as it has been shortened
step by step from 16 hours to IA, 12,
II, 10, 0 and in many instances s. has
resulted in decrease of intemper-
ance among laborers, The acquire
ment of better tastes and new and
better desires, resulting in better
homes, greater domestic felicity and
a higher degree of intelligence, with
an increase of laudable pride as to
clothing of themselves and those de-
pendent upon them. In a word, it
has increased their interests in home
and better social relations, raising
their moral status, and he's made them
much better consumers of the prod
ucts of labor and hence resulted in
increased production. No reasonable
person would for a moment entertain
the proposition that the workday
should again be heightened to IA or
IL hours"

MIDDLE-OF-THE.ROADERS.
Ignatius Donn-ily's Boom for the Pr~a'.
Dental Nomination In y Healthy State
Points In the Platform.

Cincinnati, May Sat protracted
meeting last night Of the national
committee of the middle-of-the-road
populists, plans were perfected fol-
the routine business of the national
convention which will be called to or
der in Robinson's opera house, at one
o'clock this afternoon. Former Con-
gresham Howard, of Alabama, will,
1t was decided by the committee, be
recommended to the convention for
temporary chairman. After the ap-
pointment of the credentials commit
tee, the convention will resolves itself
into experience meeting" This will
be for the benefit of the members OF
the committee on resolutions. II will
be the endeayor of the leaders to hear
an expression of opinion on the part
of every state represented before the
resolutions committee goes to work.
On Thursday morning the resolutions
committee will report and nomina-
tons will then be taken up.
lgnatius Donnelly's boom for the
presidential nomination presented Q
rather healthy appearance yesterday
evening, but there was little mention
OF candidate for vice president in
case Mr.. Donnelly should be selected
for first place.
Reports made by Secretary Joe A.
Parker to the national committee at
its meeting last evening showed that
nearly 700 delegates have already ar
rived in the city. Every state in the
union with the exception of Arizona,
New Mexico, North and South Caro-
lima and Vermont will be represented.
On the matter of platform IT is be-
lieved that the declarations will be
largely on the following points: Fa-
voring the initiative and referendum;
government paper money; govern
ment ownership of railroads and tele-
graphs; public ownership of public
franchises; highly restrictive lcgisla-
tion against trusts; an elective judi
ciary of short tenure of office; COM
pulsory arbitration of labor disputes
and graduated income tax. On the ex-
pansion question, it is not believed
that the convention will make any
expression. The Omaha platform will
be reaifrmed in every respect.
At the Reform Press association
yesterday evening the fol-
lowing officers were elected. Presi-
lent, Paul Biyom, of Chllicothe, Mo-;
vice president, c. w. Walters, of In
Ind. secretary, Joseph
l'odenheimer, of Dalton, Ga; CORE
spending secretary, j. W. streator, of
New Jersey.

POSTAL FRAUDS IN CUBA.
The D~oar, ment Of Posts Adm I. Q Short.
age Of e76,OOO-A Be ,of That OH
Tiinm Nicely Are Involved

Havana, May 9.-The postal frauds
were the principal topic of conversa-
ton in Havana yesterday, although
as yet the papers have scarcely al
luded to the matter. Tha department
of posts admits a shortage of $4,000.
but further investigation has brought
to light the fact that in July of last
year the receipts showed a falling off
of about $4,000 from the average of
the months previous and that this
shortage has been kept up ever since.
1t appears that about that time Di-
rector OF Posts Rathbone gave orders
for the destruction of S411,0O0 worth
of surcharge stamps on account of
the issue Of new stamp This work
of destruction was left in the hands
of Charles F. W. Nicely and his as
sistants, but it is now believed that
none of those stamps was destroyed,
the theory being that they were sent
out with the new stamps. Absolute
proof that something has been going
on is shown by the fact that Auditor
Bare reports the receipts of the is
land for the first five days of May as
aggregating $4,000. Should this aver
age be continued it would mean
total of more than $4,000 for the
month.
That others than Nicely are involved
is implicitly believed, although the
evidence as yet is not sufficient to
justify their arrest. Nevertheless.
should certain persons attempt to
leave the island they would be taken
into custody. Gov. Gen. Wood has
ordered that all property standing in
the name of Nicely in Cuba should be
placed under government control.
