NJ. P. CONFERENCE.

At the suggestion Of President ]. M.
Sheridan, Of the Maryland Conference,
Methodist Protestant Church, now In
session In Baltimore, the credentials Of
Rev. O. E. Redeker, pastor of Bethany
Church, we're held up yesterday pending
an investigation by committee OF five,
which will report today. Saturday morn
ing Mr.. Redeker surprised the confer
ence, which is In session at ST. Johns
Church, BY stating that be wished to
Join the Montana or Columbia River
Conference OF the Methodist Episcopal
Church. He gave no reason for leaving
except that his health was bad and that
he had brother in Montana. who told
him that the climate there would bene-
fit him.
At yesterdays session, President
Sheridan announced that information
had been received by him as to make an
investigation advisable. He requested
that the conference take his word in the
matter and rescind the credentials which
they granted Saturday. After this was
done, committee was appointed and
held meeting when Mr.. Redeker made
q statement,
A report seemed to gain credeuce that
DR.. Redeker's credentials had been re-
voked as q result Of charges preferred by
his wife, that the pastor intended to
leave her without her consent. Bat Mrs.
Redeker empbaticslly denied this.
She said: "The rumors are entirely
unfounded; it Is true that | did not
know that Mr.. Redeker contemplated
going to Montana, and bis application
for release from the Maryland Confer
ence 6ss a surprise. He told me, how
ever, that his brother had written him TO
come to that part Of the county. l do not
know who made The report to the presi-
dent, as | have not been to the Confer
ence Church since Saturday"
In the report Of the temperance COM
mittee, which WAS unanimously adopted
by the conference, the action Of mem
bers in signing applications for liquor
licenses was condemned.
The conference also expressed dissp-
proval at "the course pursued by those
newspapers which lend their influence to
the perpetuatiOn of the saloon"
Other reports of the morning session
we're those of the Christian Eudeavor,
opportunities, literature and benevolent
societies. At the afternoon session an
urgeot sppesl for foreign missions was
made. Several ministers took up col
lection for the foreign mission field, and
In a short time over $500 was raised.
Last night public meeting WAS held
at st. Johns Church with Rev. W. 8.
Phillips presiding. The topic discussed
was Evangelism"
Today the conference will hold three
sessions, and tonight it Is expected the
appointments will be read out BY DR..
Sheridan.
