COLOR LINE Is LOOMING UP

Buffalo, May pa dispatch re-
ceived from Mobile, announcing the
hearty reception in the southern as
sembly of the resolution in which the
northern Presbyterians wiped out old
scores and healed old Sores" was APP
plauded loudly by the Presbyterian
assembly here. But amid allsthe re-
joicing north and south over the pros
pect of organic union between two,
and possibly three, branches of the
Presbyterian church, there is an I'M
dertone of dissatisfaction.
The colored commissioners and their
friends see i'm this movement another
one which means the entire separation
of the white and colored ministers.
Neither the northern church, they say,
nor the. Cumberland church. will con-
sent TO a mixed presbytery.

EIGHT BISHOPS ELECTED
Sr. j. r. Day Is the Last One Chosen by
the N. e. ence-Newspaper
Deuouuced,

Los Angeles, CAL, May 23. - When
the Methodist general conference fin
ished its third weeks labors it had
elected eight bishops. the number rec
commended by the episcopacy commit
tee. Dr. ]. Il. Day, chancellor of SYRIA
cuse, N. Y, university, was the eighth
and last bishop chosen. His election
was effected on the fourteenth ballot.
1t is quite probable that Days election
was assisted by sensational attack
made by Hearst's Los Angeles Elk
aminer on Elm, which resulted in The
Examiner being prohibited the priv
ileges of the assembly, ard the denun-
citation of the story as base fabrica-
ton.
Beforeadjourning the conferencetook
ballots for three missionary bishops
one for Africa and two for southern
Asia. The result of these ballots was
not announced. The question OF tenure
Of pastorship was settled by resolving
that no change be made in the rule
providing for unlimited tenure. For
the first time a colored woman adj
dressed the conference, Mrs. Emma
Strickland, of Little Rock, Ark, plead
ing for a negro bishop on the episcopal
board.

Whatths Accused in the Rising
Sur Murder Gaze Are
Telling the Jury.
JAMES GILLESPIE is A WITNESS
Defense Also Having It's Innings at
Bedford Prince Pu Lun
Honors Harrison.

Rising Sun, fnd.. May 24.-Dr. A.
p. Heyl, called as an expert 10y the
defense in the Gillespie murder trial,
testified that he had made experiments
in firing through window glass. and
found that such gun as James Gil
lespie owned would not have scattered
the shot as was done in the murder
of Miss Gillespie. He said he believed
the assassin used an ordinary muzzle-
loading gun. Myron Barbour was the
first of the defendants called to testi-
fly. He evinced no emotion and was
entirely at ease in his manner. He
even laughed outright at times He
said he was reaching n newspaper
when lie heard the shot that killed
Miss Gillespie. He went out of the
house and later went over to the Gill
lespie home. where he found Miss GIL
lcspie lying in a pool Of blood.
Asked Significant Question.
Responding to questions he said he
did not know who shot Elizabeth that
he himself was entirely innocent Of
the crime. On ton he
admitted his unfrendliness to the dead
woman. and the state attempted to
find out why. In closing several
questions were ruled out. when
suddenly Attorney Spann asked: rs
il not tr,le that she had told you that
James Gillespie was intimate with
your wife, To this the defense hot
ly objected and the matter was post
poned for argument.
Testimony Of James Gillespie.
Mrs Barbour. Myron's wife. denied
much Of the testimony for the state
attributing to her unfriendly remarks
about Elizabeth, aud also that she
knew anything eliminating about the
murder She saw James Gillespie that
night and he was cool and quiet.
James Gillespie was the next witness.
He testified that he had worked all
day fixing fence. and that he ate
supper i'm the kitchen of the Seward
home When he left the kitchen table
he went to the rear of the yard. and
while there he heard n sound like an
explosion He did not know what the
trouble was until he was told. He
contradicted all testimony that had
been given against him by the state
witnesses Court adjourned with him
on the stand.
Defense in the Schafer Case
Bedford. Ind. May "a. = The de-
Tense took the floor in The Schafer case
with three witnesses TO prove that
Mcdonald did not even know the
name of the murdered girl until he
was told. Then his wife told of his
movements during the evening of the
murder, accounting for pretty much all
of his time. She noticed nothing I'M
usual in his manner that night. OE;s
Emery. Monon freight conductor,
testified that between $40 and 6:25 on
the evening of Jan. 81 he and James
Mcdonald were In Nj. c. Wilson's
grocery. They remained there ten
IIinutes, he said, then stood on the
porch until they went to Henry Jane
sons gate and talked there Few min
utes. Emery went in and Mcdonald
went toward Griggsby's store. In tes-
tifying to dates this witness was
proved TO have mistaken the 81 for
the 22nd OF January.

OLD FLAME WAS REVIVED
Widow of q Months Meets Former
Fiance Wedding Is the Prompt
Sequel.

Wabash, Ind, May 23.-The cul-
mination of q singular romance was
reached when Mrs. Florence How
ard, widow of William Howard, who
was killed at Bluffton last August by
an explosion of nitrO-glycerine, became
the wife of Lee ID. Palmer, her first
sweetheart, from whom she parted aft
er quarrel in Ohio years since. The
couple met by accident three weeks
ago, when Mrs. Howard went to Fort
Wayne and was the guest of her sis
ter, Mrs. Roscoe Johnson, at whose
home Palmer was invited to a party
The strange part of the affair is that
,.1rS. Howard missed her train and re-
.,lained over with her sis r by acct
dent, and that Palmer was invited to
the sisters house because another
young man could not attend But for
these circumstances they probably
would not again have met and mar
ried.
