health, if not in spirit.
The most recent happenings at
Shiloh, in which Bessie Phelps. daush-
ter of Mrs. Alice Phelps of Kansas
City, was driven insane, and May
Phelps, another daughter, is at Shiloh
suffering for food and clothing, has
stirred public indignition to such a
pitch that at least six leading ministers
of the State, two of them from Port
land, will appeal to Governor COBB 10
take action.
The Rev. DR. Smith Baker, the lead
ing Congregational minister OF this city
and the Rev. j. w. Magruder, The
leading Methodist minister here, will
meet Mrs Phelps at II o'clock Monday
morning by appointment anu
she will relate to them the
terrible privations through which
her two daughters have gone.
The girls were recruited into the colony
ranks from Kansas City six years ago,
when Bessie was "a years old and May
26. by the Rev. N II. Hartman. Re-
Gently the Rev. Mr.. Hartman severed
his connection with the Holy Ghost ami
Us colony at Shiloh. and has sent a
letter to Governor Cobb protesting
against the conditions at Shiloh hill
and asking the Governor to investigate
them.
During the six years of constant en-
deayor to gain back her daughter from
far away Kansas City to the Shlioh
TEMPLE at Durham, Me, Mrs. Phelps
has been a willing pilgrim hoping
against hope. The little widow made
one more attempt last Thursday to

with her mother, but she evidently
thought better of it and decided to stay
Upon a second visitation a day or So
after. Mrs. Phelps was told by an elder
named Jewel that the girl was in Bos-
ton.
The story is disbelieved by Mrs
Phelps, and she has stirred public sen
timent In her favor by the terrible tale
told to C. f. Dunlap Of this city, who
has q son with Sanford in Jerusalem
Mrs Phelps is in such a nervous shape
that her physicians would not allow her
to talk about the affair and 1T was plain
" seen that unless her daughter is re-
stored to her within few days Mrs
Phelps herself will break down entirely
The trouble in obtaining the girl Is

her and she requires a guardian.
Mrs. Phelps told n reporter that the
condition Of things at Shiloh is very
pitiable especially among the littie chill
dren, who are kept there by their par
ents. They have very little to eat not
enough clothing, and since the fail
weather has come on. with their in
sufficient clothing, the little ones have
suffered greatly from the cold. There
seems to have been no provisions made
for food or clothin or fires during the
winter and what the result will be when
winter comes in is terrible to contem-

GARFIELD ISN'T DONE.
He Has More Reports to Submit in
Oil Investigation.

Washington, May Commissioners
of Corporations James R. Garfield stated
today that he would submit to the pres
ident further information on the result
of his investigation of the oil industry.
It has not yet been determined. how
ever, whether this will be in one single
report or several reports.
The report recently submitted to con-
gress covered the question of transpor-
tation and freight rates and Mr.. Gar
field is now engaged in preparing re-
ports on the production and refining of
oil, the control of pipe lines, organiza-
ton, foreign trade and conditions and
competitive methods. The data for the
first four has practically all been re-
ceived and the report on competitive
methods is well under way.
Mr. Garfield said he did not believe
he would be able to submit to the presi-
dent any Of these reports before the adj
journment of congress.

AGREED TO DISAGREE.
House Committee Favors Sending the
Rate Bill to Conference.

Washington. May 22.-The railroad
rate bill was considered for three hours
by the house committee on interstate
and foreign commerce, and the decision
reached to recommend disagreement to
all of the senate amendments and 10
send the measure to conference. The
committee will not ask that instructions
of any character be given to the house
conferees.
There was no disposition to criticise
the amendment comforting jurisdiction
on the courts to revew orders made by
the Interstate commerce commission for
in the house committee as well as in
the senate many members contended
that the bill as it was passed by the
house gave that authority to the courts.
This amendment and others which col
leetively are known as the Allison
compromise, undoubtedly Will be agreed
to by the house cOnferees.
The amendment which gave the house
committee the greatest concern was
that making pipe lines common carriers,
which the committee thought inconsist-
ent with the amendment prohibiting
common carriers from producing com
Tnodities carried by it. Formal action
was not had on any Of the amendments
AM therefore the house conferees likely
viii be left free to exercise their best
judgment.

FRANcIs JosEPH IS glad.
Tells Hungarian Parliament He's Hap
Ply Over Present Conditions.

Budapest, Hungary, May 22--The
Hungarian parliament was formally
opened at the Royal castle today by
the emperor-king, Francis Joseph who
in a speech from the throne bid the
deputies a hearty welcome and ex
pressed his keen thankfulness that the
misunderstanding had passed away.
1t is painful to our paterna1 heart, Z
he said, ito look back on the events of
the recent past which disturbed the or
derry course of constitutional life. We
are thankful to divine providence that
following the desire freely expressed
the disastrous misunderstanding have
vanished and it is our ardently cherish
ed wish that the constitutional CO.
operation of all the legislative factors
may remain undisturbed in the future
After enumerating the measures
which are to be presented for the con-
sideratiOn of the new parliament, the
speech declared that although close re-
lations exist with the country's allies,
aiming at the maintenance of peace
and in spite of the friendly ties with
other foreign powers, which afford a
guarantee of peace, provision must be
made for the defensive power of the
country an dtherefore an extraordinary
contingent of recruits must be supplied
and equipped in accordance with the
rule followed by the previous delega-
ton. The speech also announced that
after the question of electoral reforms
has been settled a new parliament will
be summoned
