DEADLOCK ON BISHOP.
Methodist General Conference Is Still
Taking Ballots.

Methodist General Conference Is Still
Taking Ballots.
Chicago, May 21.-There is a dead
lock in the balloting for bishop at the
Methodist general conference, but a
landslide is possible. Berry still leads,
but Spellmeyer has taken a sudden
drop, and on the strength of a power
full speech he made on the limitations
of the episcopacy DR.. I. B. Nicely
jumped to 1913 votes. 1t is still be-
lieved, however, that DR.. Berry will
be elected.
On the eleventh ballot, read at noon,
DR.. Joseph L. Berry Of Chicago had
80 votes; DR.. j. w. Hamilton 281,
making him second again; DR.. d. III.
Moore had 255: DR.. Spellmeyer was
only fourth with 239, and DR.. Nicely
had 1913 votes. 1t was not believed
the twelfth ballot would result in an
election as Berry was still 1873 short
of the two-thirds majority.
One of the humorous incidents was
the solemn announcement by DR.. j.
NJ. Buckley, after the reading of the
ninth ballot, giving him two votes,

Beckham can only act as governor I'M

1t is difficult to believe that the
proud tyrant of the world, the one
who has made countless thousands
mourn and laughed in glec at the hor-
rible agonies wrought by his blood
thirsty minions, will submit tamely
to the demands of a nation whose
valor he has not yet tired, although
he has before him the history of the
recent humiliation of Spanish des-
postism by that nation. The United
States government has presented to
the Turkish ruler document which
contains within itself possibilities al
most undreamed of by the civilized
world while on the other hand it is
just as likely to be quietly disposed of
and completely forgotten in very
short time. 1t contains plain but
significant statement to the effect
that the Ottoman treasury must adj
vance Immediately the sum necessary
to indemnity American citizens for
the losses they have sustained at the
hands of the Turks in the obstruction
of their missionary buildings and
other property, and if the demand is
not accceded to the diplomatic rela-
tions between the two powers is to
be withdrawn, and Uncle Sam will
load a few American soldiers and
sailors on to his transports and gun
boats and sail across the Mediterranean
sea where he can make more effective
impression and talk business to the
Turk in the Turks own language.
That this latter event will take place
there is little doubt, as it is evident
that Turkey will make light of the
matter and seek to belttle the sit
uation. However this does not
make it a necessary conclusion that
war will follow. Whenever two
nations 60 to war against each other
some persons on the outside are bound
to reap a harvest. Men of this class
are now industriously laboring to
bring about serious ending to this
affair, but their efforts will be in vain
for if all of Americas diplomatic
genius should fail, then the sight of
in American battleShip at the OAR
danelles will bring about peaceful
and speedy settlement.
