The Appointments.
Maryville, No., March 1S.-The
eighty-third annual session of the
Missouri NJ. E. conference adjourned
at $3.50 p. m, to meet next year at
Brookield.
The conference was in executive
session for nearly two hours this
morning, considering the case of Rev.
A. K. Galway, to whom Presiding
Elder Bentley objected Thursday ON
the grounds of inefficiency and inef-
fectiveness. The session was secret,
but this was the object of the meet
ing. There was considerable dispute
yer the matter, and, while it was ex-
pressly understood that Rev. Galway
vas all right morally, his efficiency
was destroyed by a contentious and
pugnacious disposition. Rev. Galway
was not located by the conference,
but was left in good standing in the
conference.
The report of the statistical COM
mittee showed a total membership in
the Missouri conference of25,3 800 men,
bers, a decrease of 400 from last year.
The total value Of church property
was given at S643,411.02. The report
OF the committee On moral reform
was quite voluminous and took occa-
sion to deplore and ~deprecate the ex-
istence and exercise of mob law and
lynchings, and incidentally blamed
the saloons for the condition 1t IA
