DEWEY AT ST. U
Was So Tired That He Remained in
His Room All Evening,

st. Louis, Mo-, May Amid the firing
of cannon, the shrieking of whistles and
the huzzas of a vas ~concourse of en-
thusiastic people Admiral Dewey be-
came the guest of the city OF st. Louis
last evening. Thousands Of people
crowded into III around the mammoth
depot long before the train arrived.
AS the train was backed into the
depot at Z o'clock battery A, stationed
in the railway yards, fired an admirals
salute, the first roar of which started
a terrific round of cheers from the i'm
mense thrOng. When the train came
to a ~standstill and Admiral and Mrs.
Dewey appeared on the platform Of the
car, ne was greeted with a perfect roar
of cheers and the frantic waving of
hats, flags and handkerchiefs.
The admiraps party was escorted to
carriages by the reception committee
with much difficulty, owing to the dem
o~nstrations of the crowd outside the
depot gates. Preceded by a detach-
ment of police and the First regiment
driven to the Planters hotel. Along the
entire route TO the hotel the admiral
received one continuous ovation from
crowds which at some points were so
dense that the carriages proceeded with
great difficulty.
The admiral was constantly on his
feet, dOffing his hat in acknowledgment
of the cheers of the crowds. The mem
beers of the party dined together half an
hour after reaching the hotel. Owing
to fatigue the Admira and Mrs. Dewey
remained in their apartments all the
evening.

BROUGHT TO FRONT.
Amusement Question Sprung ON
III. E. Conference.

Chicago, May AT today's session
of the Methodist conference the hours
were lightened by some vivacious as
we'll as vigorous debate. Dr. Henry
Brown, Columbia river conference,
brought the amusement question to the
front early in the day by Offering a res
olution which in substance was that
the conference by proper action show
the world that the church had not
changed front on the amusement ques-
ton. He asked, to forestall action by
those in favor of greater liberality in
this matter, that rule 248 of the book of
discipline be for the next quadrennium
left substantially unchanged. A sharp
debate or parliamentary t~echnicalities
followed resulting in the resolution be-
ing referred to the committee on the
state of the church. During a lull DR..
A N. Craft, East Ohio conference, Sc
cured the passage of a resolution call
ing for a committee composed of one
member of each conference district, to
Inquire into the condition Of the Metho-
dist theological seminaries.
Rev. ]. A. Kumler of Illinois then stir
red up further debate by calling for a
committee of 141, one from each confer
ence district to inquire into the matter
of the d-eaconnesses societies.
Rev. N. G. Jackson of the Rock River
conference secured the floor and asked
that the committee be doubled in sizS
by the appointment of one lay and one
clerical delegate from each conference.
After further debate the committee
was reduced to so to be composed of an
equal number of lay men and preachers.
DR.. VIM. G.. Wilson of Iowa, intro
duced a resolution which caused the
most active and vigorous debate of the
session. The resolution after being
amended read as follows:
Resolved, That no bishop or general
conference officers shall receive any
thing above actual expenses for services
in the dedication and reopening of
churches, attending commandments of
Methodist educational institutions, or
for any similar services which he might
render the church."
The insinuation in the resolutions that
the bishops had asked for more a
actual expenses in Instances was re-
ceived with indignant looks by the
bishops themselves and caused half a
dozen gentlemen to clamor to the chair
for recognition.
DR.. Buckley opposed the first part of
the resolution as introduced, which calling
for liberal support of bishops and general
/ conference of officers. was later stricken
out, but declared in favor of the remain
der of the resolution. He spoke for a
scale of salaries in keeping with the dut-
les of the officers.
VIM J. WEIGH. a layman of the Wyom-
ing conference. supported the resolution
as amended and declared that the stand
ing of the church was impaired by the
practice of the bishops of demanding fees
