MORROW MUST
STAND TRIAL
Accused Minister Is to BE
Formally Charged by the
Investigating Committee
MAY RESTORE HAMMOND
Little Opposition Appears
to Request of Divine SuS-
pended at Last Conference
MAY RESTORE HAMMOND

PACIFIC GROVE, Sept. 1s.-In ex-
ecutive session to-day the California
Methodist Episcopal Conference passed
upon the qualifications Of candidates
for admission to the ministry. Gustav
A. Werner, Fred W. Axe, q. j.
Schneider, F. r. Gillette, Robert J.
Coyne, Woo Pying King, N. M. Par
sons, NJ. w. Frary, Luyonosnln
Kawashima and Wilfred Kent were ad-
mitted on trial. Woo Plying King Is
a Korean, the first ever admitted 10
this conference. He has charge In
Hawaii. Tokuji Komura, David Rals-
ton, Edwin H. Smith, G. A. Reeder ana
Samuel Quickmire were admitted 10
full membership. Edward d. Raley was
elected to deacon's orders.
The case OF r. A. Morrow, regarding
whose character numerous unfavoraole
reports have been in circulation FOR
some time, was brought up. Morrow
has been holding a supernumerary re-
lation for the past three years ana MS
request to be given charge this year
has resulted in the demand for an IN
vestigation Of his character. COM
mittee of inquiry, consisting Of w. w.
Case (presiding). A ]. Hanson. Il; A
ToWner, Eli McClish, Thomas F1lben,
j. F. Jenness, A. G. Welch, +. ID.
Bovard, w. T. Mayne, G. w. Beatty,
T. A. Atkinson, ]. B. Chynoweth, John
Stephens, George W. White and w. s.
Urmy, was appointed to investigate
the rumors regarding Morrow and de-
eide whether they form sufficient basis
for a trial.
The committee spent all the after
noon in session behind closed doors
and examined many witnesses. AS
raSuIf Of tha taSfiYnOnU adduced sDe-
cific charges are being formulated, and
at tomorrow mornings session the
accused minister will be formally
charged with fragrant immortality.
The offenses alleged extend back over
q period of eight years to the time
when Morrow had a pastorate in Sac
ramento.
DR.. ]. D. Hammond. who was sus-
pended from ministerial duties for one
year at the last conference, having
been found guilty of imprudence and
unministerial conduct, has applied fol
appointment to a charge, and it is
more than likely that when the names
of the different ministers are called
his character will be passed without
question, and that he will be restored
to full membership in the conference.
There Is practically no opposition to
DR.. Hammond's restoration to full
membership.
At the annual meeting Of the Lay
Association tonight the following
were elected: President, L. L. bennett
of Modesto; vice presidents, /. D.
Jameson of Alameda and Miss Carrie
c. Davis of San Francisco; recording
secretary, B. L. Weymouth Of Pacific
Grove; corresponding secretary. James

Anthracite Region May Be Idle.

Wilkesbarre, Executive Board
members, representing all the 14S,000
mine workers of the anthracite re-
gion, will meet at Lansford to vote on
the question of ordering the Panther
Creek mine workers of the Lehigh
Coal and Navigation Company on
strike. This was the decision reach
ed by the District Board of District
No. 7, which has been endeavoring to
adjust the trouble. They have found
it is useless to refer the matter to the
Cancellation Board, because while
they assert the charge is discrimina-
ton, the company contends that the
men who quit work at the No. 9 col
liery and now want employment at the
No. IL left their employ. The men
are in favor of striking.

Strike Breakers at Work.

Houston, Tex.-In the street car
strike Saturday, several men were
hurt, but none seriously, and the may
or ordered the Light Guard to dis
perse a crowd which had gathered
about the office of the car company,
mostly actuated by curiosity. This
was easily accomplished, and the mill
tary was marched back to the armory
to await further demonstrations The
street car company has secured a
number of professional strike-break-
ers, and a few cars were run during
the day. In addition to the trainmen,
each car carried half dozen of the
strike-breakers, all of them armed
with clubs.

Turks and Syrians Fight.

About twenty-five Turks and Syr-
ians engaged in a general fight in the
western part of Franklin Saturday
evening, and the combined efforts of
the marshal and deputy sheriffs were
required to quell the disturbance,
From what could be learned the trou-
BILE grew out of an argument between
the rival leaders of the Syrians and
the Turks over religious differences.
They all claim to be subjects of the
Sultan Of Turkey, but this circum-
stance did not, as they seemed othink
it would, exempt them from punish
ment by the local courts.

Red Cross Property.

Washington Official record has
been made of the transfer by Miss
Clara Barton to Charles A. Baker and
Samuel w. Briggs, Sin trust for the
use and benefit of the American Ma
tional Red Cross" of four building
lots in this city, for consideration Of
$40. The actual value of the lots is
estimated to be approximately $14,-
600. This transfer is cited by the
remonstrants in proof of their con-
tention that the affairs of the Red
Cross have been managed on anything
but business basis. 1t is also point
ed to by the friends of Miss Barton
as proving the absolute rectitude of
the woman who has so long been pres
ident of the association.

New York.-By the finding of his
drowned body it has developed that
Elmer S. Lewis, of Cleveland, O., a
sailor on the battleship Kentucky, ly-
ing at the New York Navy yard, who
escaped from that vessel May 26 and
jumped overheard, had lost his life in
the attempt to get away. The man
had been imprisoned under orders
from Washington, which said that he
was wanted in Manila on civil
charge, but of what offense he was ac-
cused was not stated.
The Kemper herald. (Scooba, Miss.) 1875-1908, 1904-06-09

At Magee in Simpson county, they
have what is denominated trades
day occasionally and on Saturday last
it is stated that there were over l.
800 visitors in the little city. The
farmers for miles around brought pro-
duce of every description to sell and
exhibit in a spirit of generous rival
ry that is bound to rebound to the
good of the community. There was
cotton foot tall, turnips that weigh
ed sixteen and half pounds, corn
that was in silk and tassel, new laid
eggs with double yelks, spring chick
ems OF the current years catch, and
many other articles of commerce and
home comfort. The example set by
the farmers and truckers of the Ma
gee neighborhood might be followed
with profit by those of other sections.
These days are nothing more or less
than couny fairs on a miniature scale
and stimulate matters greatly. Each
man will try to bring in the best that
is to be had and he will naturally
work to have something good to bring
along. This is worthy Of consideration
by others.
