REACH NO DECISION
Bishop Medley and Supt. Rollins
Confer in Regard to New
Minister for M. E. Church
WILL BE A WISCONSIN MAN

Bishop T. B. Medley OF New York,
the presiding bishop of the Wisconsin
Conference of the Methodist church
and DR.. William Rollins Of Milwaukee
the superintendent Of the Milwaukee
district, held a conference in Chicago
Sunday to discuss the appointment Of
a minister to take the place of the
late Rev. w. W. Stevens as pastor Of
Park avenue M. E. church in this city,
but no decision was reached and it may
be some time before a minister is Sc
lected
When asked in regard to the matter
this morning, DR.. Rollins said "Bis-
hop Neeley and [ were not able to
reach any agreement in regard to the
Kenosha situation and he advised me to
go on and fill the pulpit with Supplies
as I have been doing since the death
of Mr. Stevens The situation is a
very difficult one on account Of the fact
that it is a hard matter to pick up a
preacher in the middle of the year and
remove him from one charge to an
other [ am of the opinion that the
man sent to take care Of the Kenosha
church will be one of our own Wiscon-
sin preachers, but it may be some time
before any appointment is made"
DR.. Rollins considers the congrega-
ton at Kenosha one Of the most impor-
tant in his jurisdiction and both he
and Bishop Medley are well advised of
the conditions in Kenosha. No action
will be taken without allowing the
members of the church to express their
wishes in regard to the man to succeed
the deceased pastor. Members of the
congregation are anxious to have the
matter settled at as early time as
possible on account of the fact that
the Kenosha church is to entertain the
annual session of the Wisconsin confer
ence this year. The preliminary work
of organizing the forces for the enter
tainment of the conference had already
! been accomplished by Mr.. Stevens, but
which have been made would not meet
the approval of the new pastor. Many
of the best known ministers in Wiscon-
sin have offered to come to. Kenosha
and fill the pulpit pending the naming
|! of a regular minister for the church.
Bishop Rollins stated this morning that
he had absolutely no idea who would
be selected for the place and declined
to give out the names of ministers who
were being considered by himself and
the bishop. Bishop Medley will return
to New York this afternoon or tomor-
row and the work Of arranging for the
new minister at Kenosha will have to

STABBED IN 4 FIGHT
Mr.. and Mrs. Kent Cut in a Free
for All Fight in a Down Town
Restaurant Sunday Morning
NO ARRESTS HAVE BEEN MADE
Police Pick up Six Men as Connected
With the Fight but no Prose
cution Has Been Started
in Court
NO ARRESTS HAVE BEEN MADE

A free for all fight in crowded
down town restaurant was one of the
unique features of life in Kenosha
early Sunday morning and the fight re-
suited in a man and woman being cut,
possibly stabbed, and several people
are nursing badly bruised faces and
bodies as result of the fight Six
people were taken into custody as a
result Of the fight, but they were not
booked at the county Jail and it is
possible that there will be no prosecu-
tions. The trouble. occurred just after
midnight and it was nearly half hour
later that Police Officer Euting was call
ed to the place. Euting found scene
broken dish or two, but the story Of
the trouble was SO badly mixed up. that
it was hard to make head or tail of it.
The Injured people were Mr.. and Mrs.
Kent, the former being the manager
Of the O'Day buffet which occupies
the ground floor below the restaurant
Both Kent and his wife were cut on
the wrist and while some of the men
who saw the fight declare that they
were stabbed others say that they were
cut by portions of broken dish which
was one of the weapons hurled during
the conflict.
The trouble was no fault Of the man
ager of the restaurant, but it caused
ba ho
number Of guests who were there
at the time. The restaurant was
crowded just before midnight when a
half dozen men, we'll known about
town, went into the place. One Of tie
walters went to them and offered to
take an order, but the men refused to
give an order and demanded that the
waiter bring them cigarette. One Of
the managers Of the restaurant at
tempted to convince the men that they
had no cigarettes and later the men
became angry and were determined to
start something. Kent and his wife
were seated at table in the rear of
the restaurant and he seems to have
suggested CHdt uc Woulu dIu Inc IoSGdu-
rant manager in disposing of the crowd
when one of the men picked up sugar
bowl. and fired it at Kent Then the
mix up followed and Kent and his wife
were both thrown to the floor and
slugged. After the melee it is alleged
that knife with blood on it was pick
ed up on the floor, but the police are
inclined to believe that Kent and his
wife were cut with portions of the
broken crockery. The police secured a
half dozen stories Of the affair from
people who were in the restaurant and
none Of these were exactly the same.

Y. M. c. A. Finds it Impossible to Care
for Youngsters in the Evening
In spite of the frequent repetition of
the regulation regarding the attendance
of boys at the Young Mems Christian
Association building, there are several
boys who have formed the habit Of dis
regarding it.
Parents and friends Of boys are re-
quested to cooperate in keeping the
boys under fifteen at home after six
o clock.
In addition to the fact that boys
should be at home in the evening, the
quarters Of the association do not per
nit of having both boys and men in
the building at the same time. If there
is a crowd of boys in the lobby the
building loses it's attraction for the
men.
Owing to the large number Of meet
ings held in the association hall, and
to the fact that It has been found i'm
possible to provide the necessary equip
ment, the proposed plan to have street
boys club will have to be abandoned
for this eason.
