FOR CONFERENCE
Matters of Importance to be Con.
sidered by the Swedish

AT GALEsBURG COMING MONTH

Them.

Many important questions will
come up for discussion at the next
meeting Of the Illinois conference of
AuguStana synod. which viii be held
IN Galesburg next month. The Swed-
ish Lutheran people Of that city are
making extensive preparations to en-
terrain the ministers and delegates,

Stan an Important One.
The StaT i composed of a large
number Of physicians and the part Of
the constitution which refers To their
appointment and government * one
Of the most important in connection
with the management Of the hospital
Some parts of article N. were not
acceptable to a large number of the
members Of the conference. and CON
~equeutly it was asked that wears
time be given for consideration when
more intelligent action might be
taken.
This part of the conference pro-
ceedings will undoubtedly produce
heated arguments. but it is thought
that all questions now pcndin" will
&c amicably settled.
There has been some talk of divid-
ing the Illinois conference. As it is
considered too large with its present
confines. The conference includes
Illinois, Indiana. Michigan and the
east part of Wisconsin. 1t was thought
that Illinois and Indiana would be
large enough for one conference and
Wisconsin and Michigan for another.
The Minnesota conference was asked
TO rclinquish the western Wisconsin
territory to help in the formatic of
the new conference hut this was re
fused. and consequently the project

OVER FROTHINGHAM MONEY.
second Husband OF Brokers Divorced wife
Contested Her VIII.


Papers filed yesterday at the Surrogate's
ONCE disclosed the fact that Miss Lillian
rockingham, daughter OF Howard P.
rockingham, the man through whom the
greater part Of the call money business on
the Stock Exchange Is transacted, is a party
to suit over the will Of her mother, who
was divorced by rockingham more than
ten years ago, and who died in Denver in
1902, short time after she had been mar
ried to Albin +. Anderson, a tailor of that
city.
When the divorce was obtained by Mr..
rockingham 1t was said that he gave the
woman 500 900 for her maintenance. The
daughter Lillian has always lived with her
father. Mrs. Anderson, when she died,
left an estate valued at about S35 ,0oO She
willed 5000 to her husband and en- equal
amount to a sister and brother. To her
daughter Lillian she left two bracelets, set
with diam onds.. The residue Of the estate
was to 60 to her mother, Mrs. Bedlow,
who lives In this State.
-, Anderson contested the W Ill on the ground
that the statutes of Colorado forbid the
willing by a wife OF more than half Of her
property to any person outside the State
other than her husband. Anderson's in
terests in the suit were represented by
Headley v. Cooke Of 90 Broadway, but the
litigation was scarcely under way when
Anderson died. Andersons father, the
executor Of his sons will, then took UP the
litigation, and in january, 1904, Miss
rockingham, who was then Of age, was
made party to the suit, Clifford Hobbs
Of 8 Nassau street being her counsel.
Alleged undue influence" is an add-
tional ground upon which the will is being
attacked now. Mrs. Bedlow, the mother
OF Mrs. Anderson, and the chief bene-
fioiary under the will, Is alleged to have
influenced her daughter when she was on
her death bed to alter the will.
Mrs. Anderson's will says that the be-
quest OF 81 900 to her husband is made after
taking into consideration the fact that he

not often seen in police courts. They were
plain people, dressed in their Sunday clothes.
The man said nothing. The woman said
what she was obliged to say in the con-
strained manner OF timid person who has
come slowly and painfully to the crisis of
speech.
Il have been married eight years" she
began. Both my husband and l were
Methodists, but now he is Dowieite,
who's Dowie?" broke in Magistrate
Pool.
-why, don't you know asked the woman
in surprise
sNo, never heard of him." declared the
Magistrate
He is the man that breaks hearts and
wrecks homes" said the woman simply
as though the thought had become common
place in her own mind. Then she went on to
say that her husband had written to her
that unless she would sever all her present
religious connections and consent to his
new belle fs he would have nothing to do
with her.
But I'll never do that. Judge; ] can't
deny my faith and give up my religion. "
Mrs Heierle cried.
-Oh, he's crazy declared Maistrate
Pool in an impatient tone. Send him to
the lunatic asylum
"He thinks he has been enlightened, 4"
pursued the woman without needing the
interruption, "but don't see the light"
Mrs. Smith, a probation officer, said
that she had talked with the man and be-
lieved him to be insane.
That's it, agreed the Magistrate. Make
the charge insanity
When Mrs. Heierle understood what
charge was to be made she hurried back
the torture in her voice:
ooh, can't, I can't! He's my husband,
Judge, and / love him"
Better let him be sent to Bellevue,
madam" urged the Magistrate. Hell
keep this up till he runs knife into you
mo, no. They all tell me he ia crazy,
but cant believe 1t. I will get along
with him as best can
She persisted in her refusal to make any
complaint, and the pair went out together
