BEHIND CLOSED DOORS
NORTHWEST INDIANA CONFERENCE
INVESTIGATES CHARGES.
Proceedings Are Withheld from the

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
SOUTH BEND, Ind, Sept. 5.-Behind
closed doors, with every avenue to the audi
ence room of the First NJ. K. Church care
fully guarded by a good and reliable Meth
odist brother, the fifty-second Northwest
Indiana Conference held a long secret ses-
sion to-day. The characters of some mem
bers of the conference were up for investi-
cation. and 1t is understood there were
several knotty problems to solve. What
was done at the meeting was wholly with
held from the public, as the business con-
cerned only the conference members and
the persons on trial. Nothing whatever was
given out as to the result of the private
session.
The conference, after much balloting,
elected delegates as follows: DIR. w. II.
Hickman and Rev. j.. A. Maxwell.
Rev. M. C. b. Mason, d. D., connected
with the Freedmen's Aid Society, addressed
the conference on the work Of the aid So
ciety for the education of the colored peo-
pie in the South, and his remarks were
seconded by Bishop Joyce.
Invitations for the next conference were
extended from the Centenary Church at
Terre Haute, and. there being no opposi-
ton, it was ordered that the conference
be held in Terre Hau in September, 1904.
The bishop announced that he would Or
dain deacons at the close of the sermon on
Sunday. and elders at the close of the
memorial service in the afternoon.
The last business session Of the confer
ence will be held on Monday, from $50 to
IL 80, and in the evening there will be an

LAFAYETTE. Ind, Sept. Sin full view
of his distracted mother and two sisters this
afternoon Charles Chenoweth, the seven
teen-year-old son of Mrs. May Chenoweth,
of West Lafayette. was @"Owned in the
Wabash river a few rods from the west side

He and Roy Ford, another West Lafayette
youth, went in bathing. Suddenly young
Chenoweth went down, screaming for help.
He had stepped into a deep hole, which has
long been dreaded by the boys of the west
side. Desperate efforts were made to a
him. but they were unavailing. The alarm
was spread and police went to the scene
with graphing hooks.
Chenoweth was a fair swimmer, but prob
ably lost his head. The river is high, max
ing the hole unusually deep. Chenoweth
was a pupil in lakewood High school and
very popular In athletic circles. His mother

CHARGE MAY BE MURDER.


Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WARSAW, Ind, Sept. Lawrence
Barth and Frank Baker. who stabbed
George Willard at North Webster, this
county, and terrorized the inhabitants by
shooting promiscuously and compelling
everybody on the street to seek cover, were
arraigned before Justice w. H. Filler i'm
this city this morning. Justice Filler fixed
Wednesday next as the time for their pre-
liminary hearing and placed their bail
bonds at $1,000 each. Neither was able
TO furnish a bondsman. 1t is the plan
of the prosecuting attorney to defer a pre-
liminary hearing as long as possible for
the reason that Willard, who received the
knife thrust, is in a precarious condition and
will probably die. In that event the direct
charge of murder will be preferred against
Barth and Baker instead of that of MUIR
derous assault.
North Webster, a quiet village in the
heart of the lake region of koscinsko
county, is considerably stirred up over the
unprovoked attack upon young Willard and
it is with difficulty that law-abiding citizens
can restrain a certain element there who
openly declare that If willard dies they
will take summary action.
Frank Baker, the bartender of the North
Webster saloon, formerly resided at Churu-
busco. and since his arrest it has been as
certained that he was a bosom companion
now confined in the Ohio penitentiary. He
is regarded by many as a bad man. when
in liquor and has frequently aided Kuhns
in attempts TO elude the officers. But lit
tie is known of Barth, who halls from Pen
dleton, further than that he is one of a
party of summer tourists who have been
in camp on Tippecanoe lake for several
weeks.
