MARKET WAS UNSETTLED

New York, November 1.-The cotton mar ket today opened easy at a decline of 3uS points. Favorable weather and fairly dull receipts with no particular promise of much more in the future offset the early foreign news and late cables showed weakness, the local market becoming quite unsettled and the decline was increased to 130l6 points, as compared with the closing figures of Monday Private cables stated that the English cotton trade had discounted the election results. Later in the day the mar ket became very dull with dealings mostly local, and both sides of the account show ing hesitation owing to the continual buy ing furnished by the frost question, it being reported that cotton was still being ma tured and picked in important parts of the south. The market closed steady at a net loss of 13q16 points.

~ whose proceedings will be of
Il - interest to many millions of
citizens is to assemble in
Chicago today, being the twenty-fith
quadrennial general conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church. the su-
preme ecclesiastical court of that very
numerous denomination. Its sessions
will continue for one month and be
attended by nearly 500 delegates, min
isterial and lay. constituting the flower
OF American Methodsm.
Questions of interest both within
and without the circle of Methodism
are on the programme for considera-
ton ana decision. One of these, per-
haps the foremost in importance. is
the question of admitting women 10
membership in the conference. BY
what might be considered parIia-
mentary ruse, this is likely to be
called up very soon. One hundred and
fifty-one provisional lay delegates. 80
of whom are men, are to ask for adj
mission and two-thirds vote is
necessary TO admit. The sentiment of
the church is overwhelmingly in favor
Of their admission; but the 151st cam
didate. representing the Illinois con-
ference, is a woman, Mrs. McMahon.
Her credentials are regular. but If she
is admitted, then women generally
cannot longer be denied admittance
hence efforts are being made to in
duce her not to seek admission i'm this
manner but to let the question of the
status of women arise in it's regular
order, We have not heard whether or
not she has yielded.
The question of the time limit in
pastorates is to arise, with the city
churches generally favorable to its
abolition and the village and rural
churches as rule OPPOSED. 1t is a
subject with good Arguments on both
sides but it seems to be conceded that
the removal of the time limit is inevit-
able at no distant date.
The attitude of the Methodist church
toward amusements presents a topic
likely 10 lead to animated debate at
this conference To the original rule
forbidding Methodists to take "such
diversions as cannot be used in the
name of the Lord Jesus" the confer
ence of 1872 added a paragraph of
specifications which included, Neglect
of duties of any kind imprudent con-
duct, lndulging sinful tempers or
words, the buying, selling or using in
toxicating liquors as a beverage, sign
ing petitions in favor of granting IL

the senate is slow moving body and stands

other amusements as are obviously Of
misleading or questionable moral
tendency, or disobedience to the or
der and Discipline Of the church"
1t is contended by many that this
paragraph of specifications is unneces-
sary: that it infringes upon the juris-
diction of the Christian conscience.
Attempt will be made to secure its
elimination. which would cause re-
version to the original rule and remit
to each individual a wider liberty of
personal choice. II is a fact that the
inhibition against theaters. card play
ing and dancing is with many Metho-
dists dead letter. Social conditions
continually change. That practice
which may by one generation be
looked upon as sinful is by another
deemed nnoCuous. All agree that 1t is
the spirit of the moral law which
should be preserved inviolate. The ac-
tion of the general conference upon
this question will be awaited with far
reaching interest.

Just Ground for Censure.

|N EXPRESSING informally and
not for publication the opinion
II that Admiral Schleys conduct
during and since the Santiago
campaign constitutes a stain upon the
honor of the naval service, Captain
Chadwick said what nine-tenths of the
naval officers familiar with the facts
conscientiously believe. and what the
Santiago captains unanimously inn
piled when they advised the president
not to promote any officer Of the
charge of "reprehensible conduct had
failed to demand a court of inquiry.
Nevertheless, since Captain Chad
wick's remark reached the newspapers
and was spread broadcast, and he was
too much of a man to hide behind the
sneak practice of claiming that the
reporter lied: and also since the en-
preston by a subordinate Of language
tending to reflect upon a technically
superior officer is a violation of the
rules Of the navy, it is altogether
proper, and for purposes of discipline
vitally necessary, that he should be
censured.
The censure should be drawn in the
strongest words of which the English
language is capable. 1t thus will pass
over the head of Captain Chadwick,
whose offense is technical merely, and
find its real mark in the officer whose
questionable record and manner are
the cause of just offense to officers
who value the good name of the navy.
