Methodist Pastors In Angry Dispats
Regarding the South Africa War.
London. Sept. Ga stormy meeting
of the scumsnical Methodist confer
ence resulted from the reading by the
Rev. 9. W. Smith Of Pittsburg Of =
paper on 1.-The influence Of Methodisin
In the Promotion Of International
Peace" The Ave minute rule was
adopted, and the pastors made fiery
speeches for and against the war In
South Africa The campaign came In
for a lot Of criticism, and finally the
chairman ruled reference to it out of
order.
Many Americans took part in the dis.
cussion, but none Of the more prOmi-
nent bishops spoke. The speeches
were punctuated by frequent noisy i'll
terruptions and cheers and counter
cheers. There was a scene Of consider
able disorder, and the discussion ter
minated without any conclusion being
reached.
The Rev. George Elliott Of Detroit,
Mich, saying he had often been called
a Little American, bitterly denounced
the war.
Tie Rev r. J. Cooke of Chattanooga,
Tenn, defended the necessity of hos
tiIties to vindicate principle.
The Rev. ]. NJ. King of Philhd"lphia
said the best solution of the question
was in President McKinley's senten-
ces, uttered at Buffalo, as follows:
"'The period of exclusiveness is past.
The expansion Of our trade and com.
mcrce Is the pressing problem. Com
mercial wars are Improbable. pol
icy of good will and friendly trade re
lations will prevent reprisals. Rec!proc.
ity treaties are in harmony with the
spirit of the times; measures of retail
ption are not"
The reading of President McKinley's
remarks brought forth loud applause.
The delegates during the afternoon
devoted themselves to the discussion
of the question Of Christian unity,
paper on which was read by Bishop
r. s. williams Of Augusta, Ga. The
Rev. r. NJ. Borth of New York eX-
plained ut length the system employed
in New York to promote unity.
