HITS BACK
Declares He Never Asked to Negotiate
With PrcSident-Says Charges are
Evaded-'I Smelled at the Meat a
Long Time Before L Bit" He Asserts,
Concerning Conference.

Especial Dispatch to Baltimore Sum-
Washington, May 14.-When Sean
tor Tillman was seen this evening he
had already read the letters Of the
president and ACCOMPLISHMENT Moody.
Il did not send Mr.. Chandler to the
PRESIDENT said Senator Tillman. 'If
the president intends by his rather IN
vOlved statement to insinuate that |
did, he is beside the facts. l think
the record Of my relations with the
present occupant of the White House
would abSolve me of the suspicion of
seeking negotiations with him over
this or any other matter. The letter
of the secretary to Senator Chandler
sufficiently nSwerS the inSinuatiOn-if
it can be called that-that Mr.. Chand-
Ter was ent to him by me. | have Mr..
Chambers statement of how the ne
gotiations were begun, and l have full
confidence in every statement Mr..
Chandler makes to me. The fact is |
was very chary about entering upon
any such negotiations; | smelled at
the meat a long time before / took hold
Of it."
Discussing the merits of the presi-
dents statement in the letter to Sen
ator Allison Senator Tillman said:
"Of course it does not at all meet
the issues hat have been raised. Tho
question of veracity is a mere side is
sue, but the charge of bad faith toward
those with whom he was negotiating
is something which I think the people
of this country will feel should be
met. AS for Mr.. MOOdv'S statement that
he did not assume to bind the presf-
dent, that may be said to be a question
of opinion. After the change had
been made in the original draft Of the
amendment that had been prepared as
setting forth as the basis OF agree
ment it vas clearly understood on the
part of Senator Bailey and myself that
! we were all to go ahead"

STATEMENT OF CHURCH's FAITH
Protests Heard Against Action Of the
Conference in Voting to Appoint a
Committee &c Frame an Expression
of DoctrinaI STANDARDIZATION of
Bishops Will Take Place Thursday
Morning at 10 O'Clock.

Birmingham, Ala. May 15.-The gen.
eral conference Of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church, South, today decided to
elect three new bishops and set Thurs
day morning at 10 o'clock as the time
for the selection Of these dignitaries
and such other officers as are usually
chosen by the general conference.
Protests against the action of the
general conference of the NJ. E. Church,
South, yesterday in voting TO appcinI a
committee to draw up a new statement
of faith, were heard today Immediately
upon the opening Of the session. ".
E. Williams, Of Northwest Texas, OBJ
tected to the action of the conference
and Charles NJ. Armstrong, of Balti-
more, presented a written protest. In
the Armstrong protest it is asserted
the members Of the conference did not
understand the purpOrt Of the motion
and that the paper adopted authorizes
the committee to draw up any state
melt Of faith whatsoever and to frame
without limitation an expression OF
doctrinal system which they may deem
called for in our day"
The committee Of EpiscOpacy report
ed in the matter Of complaint Of Rev.
Cole D. Mann, Of South Carolina con-
corning a decision by Bishop Wilson
saying that the committee had no jul
rtsdiction ana that the complainant had
come before the wrong tribunal. The
same committe recommended non-con-
curzance on the petition for a bishop
in the foreign field and also non-con-
currence in a petition seeking the dl-
vision of territory into Episcopal dis
tricts. NOn-cOncurrence was reported
on memorials to increase the lay repre-
sentation in annual conference. a
inconvenience report was made IN
the request looking to the removal OF
the Headquarters of the church extern
sion board from Louisville, KY, to Ok
lahoma City and not a concurrence re-
port as stated yesterday.
The corridors of the leading hotels in
this city look as though a political con-
yention was in progress tonight. Up
permost in the mind Of every delegate
to the general conference Of the Meth
dist Episcopal Church, South, is the
contest for high church honors.
Three new bishops are to be elected

have sifted down to seven as follows:
DR.. w. H. McMurray, pastor Cen
tenary church, St. Louis; Rev. Collins
Denny. instructor in philosophy, van
derbilt university, DR.. James w. AT.
kins, Sunday school editor OF the M

loting will continue until three mel

DR.. Francis S. Dunram filed a mi
nority report as follows:
The undersigned, a member of the
ecclesiastical court referred TO in the
foregoing decision, makes n files the
following decision and report:
"Whereas, the respondent constantly
afhrms his acceptance of all the articles
of the Christian faith as contained in
the apostles creed, and
Whereas, this creed declares the sa-
cred mysteries of our Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ, and of the most holy
trinity, and a belief in the resurrection
Of the body concerning which eternal
v~erities of the Christian religion, the
said respondent is called in question,
/ find from his own statements n the
evidence submitted for his defense that
his error consists rather in presuming
to define what God has not been
pleased to reveal, and to interpret those
dOstrines in a ann not generally re-
ceived b. the church, rather than in a
denial and rejection of their truth and
authority.

The charges against Dr.. Crapsey
grew out of a series of sermon deliv.
cred by him while he was rector Of st.
Andrews church at Rochester, and
which he subsequently published in
book form under the title Religion
and Politics. In brief the charges de-
clare that DR.. Crapsey in these writ

ty of Christ, His virgin birth, His re-
surrection and the doctrine Of the trim.

EXPLOSION OF DYNAMITE
Five Miners Blown to Pieces and
Twelve Badly Burned.

Shenandoah, Pa, May 15.-Five min
ers were torn to pieces and twelve bad
" burned by an explosion Of dynamite
in the Shenandoah City colliery of the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron company today.
4 box Of dynamite which a workman
was carrying fell from his shoulder and
caused the explosion which ignited the
mine gas. All who were killed were
mutilated beyond recognition.
The absence Of tse deadly black
damp made the work of rescue less
hazardous than in accidents of this
character.
All Of the killed and injured were
foreigners. But little damage was
done to the mine.

and was unanimously passed, it
was not long gefore some of those
present would have gladly reconsider
ed their action.
The fight was begun by Mr.. H z.
Bonitz making a motion that the cahir,
together with an advisory board, one
member to be chosen from each ward
and township.
This method was objected to by Ma
jor Bernard, who thought delegates
should be named from the various
wards and townships as in this man
ner all candidates could have a repre-
sentatiOn.
Mr.. J. A. Taylor reminded Major
Bernard that such had not geen the
custom in the past and cited the last
election Is an instance when the dele
gates were named by the chairman
and Glenn, then a candidate for GOV
ernOr, got no representation wnat-
ever from this county, although
in favor of him.
There was a discussion among sew
eral of the delegates in regard to the
method of selecting the delegates and
it resulted in Major Bernard offering
q substitute 10 Tue cueCt ludL SdCu
ward and township elect its own dele
gates.
Those who spoke in favor OF the
substitute we're, Mr.. Thomas ". Da-
Wis, Mr.. Woodus Kellum and Mr.. w.
P. Gafford. When the question was
put to a vote the result stood % for
and % against.
The original motion was then put
and carried by a vote of 35 to 16. This
meant that the delegates to the va
rious conventions were to be named by
the chairman together with an advis-
DRY committee to be appointed from
| the different wards and townships.
The delegates have not yet been
named.
Cook and Paterson had some
| strength in the convention, but it was
not as apparent as Godwin's, who ap-
peared TO be the chief opponent of
Brown. There In many no do not
| believe that yesterdays convention be-
ing so plainly for Brown will simplify
matters n although it will be Of
wonderful assistance to the Columbus
county candidate in his efforts to get
the nomination.

10 the accused minister.
Four Of the judges state that / n their
opinion sentence should be passed as
follows:
That the respondent should be sus-
pended from exercising the functions OF
the church until such time as he shall
satisfy the ecclesiastical authorities Of
the diocese that his belief and teaching
conform TO the doctrines Of the apostles
creed, and the nicene creed as this
church hath received the same. How
ever, We express earnest hope and de-
sire that the respondent may see his
way clearly, during the thirty days
that under the eanons of the church
must intervene before sentence can be
pronounced to the full satisfaction Of
the ecclesiastical authorities of such
conformity on his part.
