LElLICHS TROUBLES.
Talks with several Methodist clergy
mon today brought Out the fact tina;
they considered that Superintendent
Lcllich was "let down easy ann that
some time before March next he win
return to his conference IN central
Pennsylvania. Tho man Is great SUI
icrar from kidney troubles in face he Is
so il a was stated today, that his
memory Of even the conference just
closed ~ imperfect. ana events not very
remote he has forgotten entirely. Mr..
LeIlich ~ In no physical or mental con-
dltIon to attempt to manage the affairs
OF the Utah Methodist mission and IL is
understood that while he Is continued ~
charge Il is really only In name and
that the actual superintendent IN Pre-
slGng Elder MOrk, In times past MI,
Lcllich has acted largely on rampant
order and was ready to show light To-
day. he is reported TO be as do'ile as
lamb. and the bishop remarked That az
the cabinet meetings held during the
conference season. he had nothing 10
say but appeared to merely look on.
Moreover. Mr.. Leilich's troubles are
not only mental and physical but also
financial; and well known Methodist
clergyman says. that the superintendent
was really without a dollar, having lost
an Of his savings Ia Improbable min
ing speculauons. # Is hoped 10y HIS
friends that from contributions and
salary enough can be raised before long
20 send him back to his Pennsylvania
home IN comfort, and where his declin-
ing DAYS can be spent peacefully. While
there was a strong hostility 10 Mr. Lei
lick. there Is now more sympathy than
hostility in view ot his unfortunate con-
dillon, which shuts Oft further hostile
criticism Even those IN the mission
who felt the bltterest against the man,
now experience only sorrow for him,
and wish him only good
VINO WILL SUCCEED HIN:
Just who viii be ;he next regular SUI
peuntendent Of the Utah Methodist mis-
sion cannot now be stated, as Bishop
CranstOn has the matter In immediate
charge and is not taking the press on
the public into his counsel. He retains
the direction Of affairs in this mission
uutl the next meeting OF tho house Of
bishops I'm The east when the bishop
Who is To preside over the 1904 confer
enco Wll be chosen. There is a strong
feeling OF relief among Utah Methodsts
today. In view " the coming change,
ana the expectation IS hat Bishop
Cranst0n viii pick out man who Is of
a concliatory nature, and who Will COM
maud the respect and attention Of all
Of the members Of this conference both
clerical and lay.
