QUAYLE IS BISHOP
IS ELECTED ON THE TENTH BAL. LOT.
Thirteen Ballots i'm All Were Taken by the General Conference With Only One Successful CandI-
 date.

Baltimore, Md, May 25.-Rev. pr. William A. Quayle pastor of St. James Church, Chicago, and a lecturer of wide reputation, was elected bishop on the tenth ballot at the general con ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, thus breaking the deadlock which has existed since the second bal lot. T-fs7
 Another ballot was taken for the re. mainingl five bishops yet to be nomin. ated, but it was without result. Con. sideration of the report of the com- mittee on education. which formulated the details of the reorganization of the board of education freeman's aid and Sunday school into three separate societies was resumed.
 The conference decided that there shall be two corresponding secretaries of the board of Freedmen's Aid, who shall coordinate, the understanding being that one shall be a white man and the other a negro. It was deemed that 1t would be for the advantage of the church to have two men represen- tatives of each year. as the negro could inspire his own part of the church while. 1t was stated that the white man would have access to churches unavailable to the negroes thus be able to raise funds necessary for the work. After some minor amendments. the report in it's entirety was adopted. A telegram of greeting from the general assembly of the Presbyterian church in session at Kan sas City, in response to the salutations of this general conference, was read and received hearty applause. The result of the eleventh ballot for bish- ops showed no election, the vote be- ing as follows:
 smith, 47s: Lewis. 4f0; Hughes, 44s: Stuntz. 40s: McIntyre, Ss5: Downey. 2ss: Hingely. ITO; Mason. 14O; Jen- nings, 13s; Cooks. 122; Bristol, IF; Dorchester. 115: Goodel. 1o3.
 The name of Dr. Freeman Bovard, of San Francisco. who received twenty seven votes on this ballot. was with drawn.
 The thirteenth ballot is reported to- night to have resulted in no election.
 New Episcopal residences are to be established. if a recommendation of the Committee on the Epescopacy ia adopted. in Pekin, China. city of Ok lahoma, New Orleans, La. Omaha, Neb.. and Detroit, Mich, will be assigned to chiia and the next foreign bishop will be placed in Franca.
 The Committee on Revision has de- cided to recommend the elimination from the baptismal service of the | declaration that all men are conceived | and born in sin. The committee will report adversely to the memorial ask | ing that the word Catholic he omitted | from the Apostles Creed when used by | Methodists
 A laymen's general association was formed tonight by the adoption of 2 constitution, and John A Patton, of | Chattanooga, will, in all probability be elected its president Its purpose is to unite the laymen's association Of the association for the different con- ferences.
