NEW CoySTITUTI0S.
II Has Practically Been Adopted by tn
Methodist Conferences.

1t Has Practically Been Adopted by the
Methodist Conferences.
baltimore American,
The new constitution OF the Methodist
Episcopal Church, recently submitted
to the annual conferences, has piaoti-
cally been adopted, and the voice of the
referendum now only remains to be an
proved by the rext General Conference.
One hundred and five conferences have
voted so lar. The total vote cast up to
date is 10,O20, of which number Z, 5Ti
was cast 10 favor OF the constitution
and 2, 4l6 against it. Eigbty-seven con-
ferences have voted for the new form Of
organic law and IL against it. Out OF
the 2, 246 votes cast against the new
constitution 6l7 were cast by the Ger
man conferences, which are 10 in num-
Der. The largest vote recorded against
1t in any conference was lao, cast in that
of Eastern New York. The second
largest vote in opposition was cast in
the Baltimore Confer ence. which was
l04. Fourteen conferences voted unani-
mously in favor, and in 81 conferences
the opposition wac leHs than 10 in each.
The largest vote cast in any confer
ence was 224, 10 that of Illinois. OF
this number s09 votes we're cast in favor
and only 10 In opposition. The New
York Conference gave a majority of 96
in favor of the constitution, while the
New York East Conference was against
the proposition by majority of 81.
While the Central Pennsylvania Confer.
enoe gave majority of 1873 in favor, the
Baltimore Conference was against it by
a majority Of CT.
So far the new constitution has a ma
jority OF 80 over the constitutional re-.
quirement, and the outlook is that the
votes of the remaining conferences,
which number le, will largely Increase
the majority for it. The remaining
conferences are largely colored ones, tho
sentiment of which is believed to be
largely in favor of the adoption Of the
constitution. In the colored conferences
held SO far, which are 10 in number.
the opposition could only muster 70
votes out OF total of 100, while the
friends OF the measure cast 65l.

erinduced by blood poisoning. The body
was sent to st. Georges for burial.
After Peckard's death the Police in
vestigation was begun. Sergeant KEEL
leher interviewed all persons who had
seen Packard on the night he was hurt
and obtained from them the following
facts: May Riley, living at AIS Tatnall
street, said on Saturday morning, No
vember 9th, Packard, with whom she
was acquainted, called at her residence
and was around there the greater part
of the day. Early in the evening she
accompanied him to Hilmer Nelson's
saloon, at the northwest corner OF Fifth
and 1atnall streets, where he treated
her and Frank Heal, after which he
gave her halt a pint OF whisky, which
she took to the house. She returned and
found PecKard 10 the rear room Of the
saloon with his hand bleeding. She
asked him what was the matter and he
told her he he been dancing with Matt
Heal in the rear room of the saloon and
fell and broke his thumb and at the
same time cut his mouth, which was
also laoerated. She accompanied him to
the othee OF Or. M. j. Hughes, at
Seventh and West streets, where the
injured thumb was dressed. The laoera-
tion on it had to be sewed up. From
the DOCTORS office he returned to Nc
Calls stable, where he made his hend-
quar- tors for four days until he was sent
to the hospital, as stated above. So far
as the puiice have heen able to learn,
there is nothing to indicate foul play,
as all of the statements appear to agree
with that made by Packard, and there
Thursday Register of Wills Crossan
granted letters of administration on the
estate Of the deceased, which is worth
about 500, TO James ii. S. Gam,
creditor, who was also a neighbor and
friend and had business transactions
with the deceased. Subsequently, Charles
pec6ard, son of tho deceased, applied
through his counsel, George L. Town
send. Jr., to Register Crossan to revoke
the letters granted to Mr.. Gam, and
Mr.. Crossan decided to have the matter
argued before him.

DEATH OF EDWARD H. Packard.
Police Informed That He Injured Himself
by Failing While Dancing in saloon.

Police Informed That He Injured Himself
by Failing While Dancing in saloon.
BY direction of Chief of Police Mas
sey, Sergeant Kelleher made an investI
cation into the cause of the death of
Edward ii. Packard OF st. Georges,
which occurred at the Delaware Hos
pital Friday week. At the Tins it was
announced that death, which resulted
from gangrene, was the indirect result
of Packard falling at Fifth and ratnall
etreets on Saturday night, November
9th, and breaking his arm. 1t was
learned Thursday that the arm was not
broken, but the thumb on the left hand
was dislocated and lacerated.
While in the city Packard appeared
to make his headquarters at Samuel J.
McCall's City Hotel stables, on Front
street, between Shipley and Orange.
Although about 10 years of age, he was
frequent visitor to the city. At one
time he was well-known school teacher
at st. Georges and other places and a
number Of former pupils, with whom
he was popular, live here. But, SO far
as IS known, he seldom visited them.
lie had business interests here and ct
ono time had a pretty good bank &C.
count, but it is believed most OF his
nuOuoJ was oAhuuolou L0lOtp no dlCds
He came to Wilmington on Friday,
November SJh, as far as can be learned,
and, Judging from bis conversation
upon his arrival, he intended to have
what he considered an enjoyable time.
On Saturday evening be was at Mo-
Calls stable and went out. Later, some
thing after 8 O'CLOCK, he returned. He
stated that mia thumb had been in
jurod. lie said it had been broken in
fall while he was dancing in saloon
at Fifth and Tatnall streets. A man
who saw the injured hand said the
thumb looked as il it had been bitten,
and as he comp aimed about soreness in
the body, the impression got out that
he had been assaulted and was injured
internally. but he cad very little
about his injuries and gave no definite
information, intimating that he did not
rscolleot just what occurred at the time
he was injured. He had had his hand
dressed before going to the stable late
on Saturday evening. lie passed the
night there and on Sunday morning his
hand panied him very much. This
alarmed his friends and DIR. Taylor
was summoned and again dressed the
hand. Still Packard kept his friends in
the dark as to the facts concerning his
injuries. lie made the stable his head
quarters. eleeping there at nights, until
Wednesday, November 18th, four days
after he was injured. when sympt oms
of blood poisoning developed and upon
the advice of DR.. Taylor he was sent to
the Delaware Hospital, but the trouble
had developed too far and the efforts of
the hospital people were in vain. Ills
death occurred Just six days after he
was injured. DIR. james A. Draper. Jr..
the coroner's ply 'icIaD, made a post
norton examination and ascortained
that death resulted from gangrene. sup.
