Regarding Action of Rev. A. NJ.
Williams of Trinity Church.
Rev. DR.. T. D. Ellis, presiding elder
of the Savannah district of the Metho-
dist Church, positively declined yester-
day to discuss the action of Rev. DIR.
A. NJ. Williams in asking for a change
in his pastorate. To every question
that was asked him he responded: Il
will have something to say about that
when conference meets in December
and not before. -
He refused to state whether the
change would be sanctioned, or who
would probably be sent here as Dr.
Williams successor, and when asked
If such action was usual, or unusual
on the part of a pastor, replied by say
ing: Il must refer you on that point
to Bishop w. w. Duncan He then
dismissed the entire subject by stat
ing: II positively decline to be inter-
viewed. I"
Methodists generally were surprised
when the announcement of the intend
ed leaving of Dr. Williams was read
yesterday morning in the Morning
News. Expressions of regret were
heard and the members OF his congre-
cation unanimously expressed the hope
that he would change his determina-
ton to leave them. The official men,
berS of the church declined to discuss
the matter, acontenting themselves with
saying they would leave the entire mat
ter with the conference, which meets
in December. ls

Mayors Office from Senator A. o. Ba-
con, heartily indorsing the idea sug-
gested by Mayor Myers of the govern
ment building a road on Tybee Island

will do all he can to have the govern
ment take the matter UP. s
The city officials and others inter-
ested in getting road on Tybee are
delighted at Senator Bacon's letter.
Every effort win be made to get the
government to build the road at an
early date.
Senator Clay. to whom Mayor Myers
wrote at the time he addressed Senator
Bacon, has not yet been heard from
but friends of the Senator here say
there is no doubt about his giving his

AMERICAN INVASION
OF ENTIRE EUROPE
As Seen by Bishop Kelley During
His Trip Abroad.

His Trip Abroad.
Rt. Rev. Bishop Benjamin ]. Kelley
returned to Savannah yesterday morn
ing, after four months visit to
Rome, France and Ireland. He was
met at the station by a committee
from the Catholic Library Association
and by a number of the visiting
clergymen who had assembled here to
welcome him back to the diocese.
The Bishop was driven from the sta
ton directly TO the episcopal residence
and the entire day was spent in rest
ing from the trip from Richmond.
Later in the afternoon he held an in
formal reception for the clergy and
talked at length on his trip and the
many points of interest visited.
1.-The American invasion of Europe"
said Bishop Kelley, lis a cry that 1
have often heard, but not until my
visit abroad did l realize just how
much it means. Americans and Amer
lean made goods are found in every
city in every country. If you ask for
the best of everything they will bring
you something which is made in Amer
lea.

tated a moment, then bowed and po-
litely said: 'Monsignor would not wear
them This is only a sample of what
one finds everywhere. no matter what
class of goods he desires to purchase.
In speaking of his visit to Pope Plus
x, the Bishop said, among other
things:
II was received by the holy father
in the usual manner, having been CIV
en- the privilege of several interviews.
He asked particularly about the con-
dition of the church in this country it's
means of support and it's methods OF
instruction. When l told him of the
progress made, especially in this do

parted a special blessing.

seem strange to you. In speaking of

CAPT. GORDON is READY
FOR C0URT-MARTlAL
Back From the North and Prepared
for Military Service.


for Military Service.
Capt. W.. w. Gordon returned yes
terday morning from an outing spent
near Manchester, VT, having gone
there direct from the Manassas ma
neuvers.
He returned earlier than he otherwise
might have done on account of the an
nouncement of the court-martial for
Sept. %. Mrs. Gordon and family
who have been spending the summer
in Vermont, returned with him.
1T was delightfully."- cool there. We
needed overcoats a considerable por-
tion of the time"
When asked for an expression on
the political situation. he said:
II think Parker will carry New York.
From what 1 gathered many of the Re.
publicans of that state were Disguised
by the action of Odell in forcing a
candidate upon the party. 1t will also
affect the independent vote largely
and will turn them into the Democratic
camps, especially as the Democrats
have gotten together, through Judge
Parker's tact and address. 1 am al
most certain that he will carry New
York.
THE Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor stands well and will, think, car
ry the state. His name has caused a
good deal of talk, the question of what
the D stood for causing questions to
be asked. His name is D-Cady Her
rick The family had an aversion Ia
a middle name. but were DESTROYS OF
naming him after one Daniel Cady.
The first letter does not represent any
name.
Judge Parker is thoroughly familiar
with conditions in New York and exer-
'cises considerable skill in getting men
to his support. notably in the case OF
Gov. Hogg of Texas. He is making
votes all the time"
