TOO MUCH HURRY
Steamship Officials Neglect Malls In Order
10 Make Fast Time.

San Francisco. Oct. 26.-San Francisco
postoffice authorities are not pleased with
the zeal for record-breaking recently
shown by the Pacific Mail company. They
complain that II has seriously delayed
mails. One instance OF this neglect is now
under consideration 10y the postmaster
general and the railway mail service and
may result In the imposition OF n heavy
fine and Imprisonment of the officials Of
the steamship line.
When the Corean sailed from here with
the Taft party and Miss Alice Roosevelt
IL forgot the mails. The company's wag-
ons were slow In reaching the steamer
and the Corean cast of while the bags
were being trundled down the dock. This
was n violation OF the postal laws. and
for IL the company is liable to a fine OF
$500 and the officers TO imprisonment for
u months.
When the Corean returned from the
orient with Secretary Taft no stop was
made at Honolulu. and that port was de
prived Of the mail and passenger service
10 which II was entitled. A number "
Chinese passengers who ought 10 have
been put ashore at Honolulu were carried
10 this city and then returned to the ISL
ands on the M~anchuria.
The same thing happened with the sibe-
ria, which brought Miss Roosevelt and
the Hartman party on Monday, after n
record trip. which cut out the Honolulu
stop and mails.

METHODIST BISHOPS WILL
DECIDE PROF. MITCHELL'S CASE

Washington. Oct. 26.-The ~semi-annual
conference Of the College OF Bishops OF
the Methodist Episcopal Church. COM
prising the governing body OF hat denom-
%tnation, began here yesterday with II Of
the y Bishops comprising the college
Others are expected before the closing
OF the conference. which. IL is expected,
VIII continue until next week. But little
business was transacted today. and this
was confined largely 10 the reception OF
reports OF visits TO the conferences.
Several matters of interest and impor-
lance 20 the Methodlsts are TO be dealt
with during the sessions. which are to
be held daily during the week.
Particularly interesting will be the as
signments which the Bishops will give
themselves I'm presiding over the spring
conferences.
The disposition OF the case OF Prof.
Kinley q. Mitchell. elected by the board
q trustees OF the Boston University, TO
I'LL the chair Of Hebrew, il perhaps the
question OF the most popular interest.
Six months ago the Bishops refused 10
confirm the selection Of Prof. Mitchell on
the grounds that his interest In II higher
criticism" OF the Bible united him 10
teach the fundamentals OF Methodism.
The trustees or the University have re-
fused TO concur In this decision, and have
reappointed the professor. Five years
ago Prof. Mitchell was before the Bishops
and explained his beliefs to their salts
faction. Since that time he has published
a book called The World Before Abra-
ham in which II II alleged by many
churchmen he has made heretical state
ments concerning the Old Testiment.
II was this work which was the basis OF
adverse action six months ago at which
time the Bishops were nearly equally al
vided over the question.
The sessions OF the Conference are all
held behind closed doors. IL IL expected
that the FIRST three days of the Conference
will be devoted to hearing reports from
tho Superintendents on the work I'm their
particular fields. Each Bishop has prac-
tically absolute authority I'm his hish-
opric. and an effort In made at the semi
annual Conference TO make their work
and decisions harmonious
