ence refused TO declare I'VE are as much
as ever In favor observing the kneeling
attitude. The effective argument was pre-
scented by a city minister, who said: w
would have to rebuild our churches. Pew
space is too contracted to permit Of kneel-
Ing" The Nebraska preacher rose to urge
adoption of his views, but the conference
clamored for a vote and the more easy
leaning OF the body toward the back OF the
pew in front was approved.
The action of Bishop McCabe in refusing
to maintain an episcopal residence in his
district has resulted in an effort TO compel
the effective bishops. not only TO reside In
their district. but to confine their opera
ions 10 circumscribed limits. A move
ment developed at the opening OF the Gen.
eral Conference a week ago has gained
momentum and promises to end in making
the bishop a diocesan officer. The episcopal
residence has been one In name rather than
in fact. on account of the travelling charac-
ter OF the work of the officer. The COM
mittee on episcopacy to-day debated an
order from one of its subcommittee call
ing upon the bishops to live and work
within the district to which they are
assigned.
to assign its effective men for work in for
eign fields and others to be assigned to dis
tricts In the United States.
The numerous candidates for episcopal
nOnOrs are becoming anxious over the near
ness of the election and the failure of the
committee on episcopacy to recommend any
additions to the number of bishops. The
subject has been referred to a subcommit.

cipitated.

vention by the committee on permanent
organization and order of business after a
session lasting for over two hours.
The committee on platform of the Popu-
list convention met at 8 o'clock tonight
and at midnight was still in session, de-
batting the various planks presented. Jerry
Simpson acted as chairman OF the commit
tee. Among the planks agreed UPON before
midnight were those relating TO imperial
ism, militarism, trusts and the finances.
The declaration on Imperialism and militsr-
Ism begins with an expression of pride In
the valor displayed by our army in the
Spanish war" and deploring the conduct of
the administration 'in changing the war
OF humanity into a war of conquest" The
onduct or the administration in the Phil
ipplnes Is denounced as a CHASTITY travesty
upon enlightened human government: the
Porto Rican legislation of the present Con-
gress is condemned as a fragrant violation
CT the Constitution" and the increase of
the standing army Is referred to as "con-
slant menace TO the liberty of the people
sympathy is extended 10 the Beers in
their war with Great Britain, and demand
In made that the administration shall take
prompt steps TO end the war by Offering
mediation.
Trusts are denounced as the greatest evil
OF the age.
The financial plank closes as follows:
we reafflrm the demand for the reopening
or the minis of the United Ststes to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver and
gold at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1.
AK immaculate increase In the volume OF
silver certificates thus created, dollar for

corporations under special privilege granted

banking laws. the remaining portion of the
oank notes to be replaced with govern
ment paper money and it's volume so con-
trolled as to maintain at all times a stable
money market and a stable price level

practice OF issuing injunctions In cases OF
disputes between employees and EMPLOYERS
making criminal acts by organizations
winch are not criminal when performed by
individuals and demand legislation to re-
strain the evil.'

THE TWO
Republicans Rejoice and the Demo-
Gratis sound a Note of Calamity.
Philadelphia Press.

Philadelphia Press.
A Democratic newspaper. desiring to be
sarcastic, describes the proceedings or the
Republican state conventions heid the past
week as Mckinley magninca.ion, 10
apnrovinp utterances with which refer
ences to the administration began and
tabulated them as follows:
I'VE indOrSe-
1--WE rejoice
I'VE glory
'We are proud
1--WE heartily support
1--WE commend and approve
The Republicans are perfectly willing to
plead guilty TO this criticism. Their plat
forms are likely to partake largely OF a
magniication not only of President Nc
Kinley. but of the Republican party also.
1t will be impossible for ii to be otherwise.
Without the least ex~aggeration they can
point to things actually achieved, to prom
ises fulfilled, to the greatest prosperity the
country has ever known. The contrast
with the souphouse period of Grover Cleve-
recognize it. AS the late Senator Roscoe
Conkling would say: The present situation
proves the Republican party great in the
arduous greatness Of things DONE"
And wha will the Democratic party say
in its speeches and platforms? There will
be no 'magnifcation' in them With
every promise the party has made broken.
with its pledges unfnlhlled and with a re-
over the country yet of the poverty, shame
and business wreckage of Grover Cleve-
lands administration the Democracy can
come together and resolves that
1--WE repudiate-
1--WE mourn
1--WE decry-
1--WE are m
we condemn
w denounce-
I'VE disavow-"
The Democracy can probably find a few
more depreciating expressions to use I'm it's
platforms and speeches. but there will not
be any magnification in them. The Re-
publican party is entirely satisfied to be
known as the party of magniication and
10 let the Democratic party be known as
the party of calamity.

CHICAGO. May 9.-Kneeling as the at

DIR. BUCKLEY OUT FOR A RECORD.

C~onferencef

A great many important questions are to

made; several new bishops are to be APP

day the doctor proposed that a special
speakers platform be erected to suit his
of the sarcastic suggestion Of a delegate
that a runway should be made TO give the
most active member OF the metropolitan
delegation easier access TO the stage For
one day DIR. Buckley was not much In evil
dence. The shaft went home. But he
speedily recovered, and Is once more out
for the honors. DR.. Buckley has no rival
for the long-distance talk championship. He
Is simply out TO beat lis Own s~tupendous
performance of four years ago. On that
occasion the editor of the Christian Advo-
cate addressed the Conference 81 times It
was calculated that his figure would have
been 1000 had IL not been for the fact that
there were innumerable obstacles between
him and the platform. Owing TO the new
arrangements these have been removed
And as the doctor has a gift for catching
the eye Of the presiding bishop. whoever
he may be, the general impression Is that
he will tear all previous records to pieces.
OF course there Is no betting on the re-
suit. But a report comes from Chicago to
the effect that two delegates were heard
talking In the lobby on Friday. One said:
IF Buckley goes 200 speeches above his
figure Of four years ago I shall make you

cident was at an end.

A Letter Received from Assistant Sec

Some time ago Charles F. Sayles, repre-
senting the prospective purchasers of the

officers were to vacate their present quar-
tiers, and remove to the new building. Quar-

dian of the buildings, received a communi-
cation from II. A. Taylor, Assistant Secre-
