BRYAN AND GRAY
SAIL ON CEDRIC
Both Say Kind Things About
Everybody
COMMONER ON RELIGION
Each One Admits That All of the DEM
ocrats Being Talked of ms Presi-
dental Possibilities Are
Good Men
BY ROBERT LEE CARTER

New York, May 21.-(Special.) -William
Jennings Bryan was a passenger on the
White Star liner Cedric today So was
Judge George Gray of Delaware, upon
whom the anti-Bryan democrats tried to
center at the Denver convention
Mr.. Bryan is on his way to the national
missionary conference at Edinburgh, and
Judge Gray is en- route to The Hague as
one of the arbitrators in the New Found.
land fisheries dispute.
Both men were chary about discussing
politics except In the most general way
Mr.. Bryan was confident that the demo-
Gratis would control the next House OF
Representatives, and If they acted wisely
they had most excellent chance to win
the next national election.
Too EARLY to Talk
When asked for an expression as to
candidates, the sage of Lincoln smiled
It's too early yet to talk about candi-
dates. The democratic party is particu-
larry fortunate in having so many good
men to choose from at this time.'' said
he. Just which one will be chosen by
the next convention 1t is impossible now
to predict. 1t will depend largely upon
the course of events within the next year
or two. I am sure. however, that the
convention In its wisdom will choose a
man for whom 1t will be a pleasure and
privilege for good Americans to VOTE
Mr.. Bryan had a good word to say for
number of the men whose names have
been mentioned in connection with the
democratic nomination.
Governor Harmon is a fine man," he
said. $50 is Governor Marshall of In
diana. Governor Folk is a good man and
well qualified for any Office in the gift of
the people. Mayor Gaynor of New York
has made a brilliant record and is very
able man. Judge Gray Is of presidential
timber. As matter of fact, l think the
task of the next democratic convention Is
| going to be one of selection and with 50
many men of high character and ability
to choose from, the task is going to be no
easy one."
Religious Outlook Bright
Mr. Bryan is enthusiastic over the re-
ligious outlook. 1t has been said it is his
intention to devote more of his time in the
future to religious work; that he intends,
| In fact. to become more or less of an
evangelist. As to his plans along this
line, Mr.. Bryan would not talk today. He
did say. however that the religious out
look the world over was never brighter.
THE Christian men of the world he
! declared with enthusiasm, have not been
aroused to the necessity of spreading the
vital truths of Christianity throughout
the whole world In generations as they
are today I look to see a, great world
wide religious revival which will have the
most far-reachng effect on the lives OF
! the people.
Practically every problem which con-
fronts the civilized world today can be

SJNDRY APPROPRIATION BILL
IS NOW UNDER CONSIDERATION

Washington, May Especial -Politi-
cal big wigs of the House having fired
their campaign shots, that body got down
today to the consideration of the sundry
appropriation bill as a legislative matter.
The first section of the bill, carrying an
appropriation of $250,0OO to carry out Pres
ident Taft's plan for tariff board to look
into the cost of production at home and
abroad, met with a point of order raised
by Fitzgerald, democrat of New York
and member of the committee. With this
legislative cog in the wheels of the ma
chine, the House adjourned until Monday.
1t will be brushed aside then. Chairman
Mann who is presiding over the House
in committee, will rule on the point of
order and the fight son the present tariff
board will open.
Mr.. Mann has given no indication of his
proposed rule on the question of order.
1t is admitted by the republicans that
good question has been raised and they
would not be surprised if Mr.. Mann
should sustain the point. In this event
the section will go out Of the bill and re-
publican House leaders will find some
other opportunity to get 1t before the
House.
The fight on the tariff board will come
at once If Mr.. Mann rules against the mo-
ton that they have sufficient votes to
carry the measure. They expect to lose
some votes, notably Fordney of Michi-

Night Session

The night session opened with Bishop
W. A. Gambler in the chair. The salary
of the secretary of the board of edu-
cation was raised to $780, The report of
the committee on the statement of faith
for worldwide Methodsm showed that
their work failed on account of another
church declining to cooperate in the eff
fort.
An appropriation of $4,000 was voted
for the Pacific Methodist Advocate for
the next four years. The report of the
committee on church extension was
adopted, which leaves the question of
moving the headquarters at Louisville
with the board, which is to report at the
next conference.
The report OIL the committee on epis-
copacy regarding the semi-annual meet
ing of the college of bishops in New Or
leans was approved. The last measure
adopted by the conference before ad-
journing sine die was the adoption of a
report that a committee of five be APP
pointed to cooperate with the national
committee on uniform divorce law.

Afternoon Session
The afternoon session of the conference
was opened by Bishop H. C. Morrison,
when it was announced that Bishop Col
Inns Denny had been elected secretary of
the college of bishops. The discussion on
the question of an assessment for an en-
dowment fund for worn-out preachers
was again taken up and by vote of the
conference lost.
A resolution was passed asking that a
committee be appointed by the college OF
bishops consisting of one bishop, two
preachers and two laymen to consider q
plan for increased activities of the lay
men and for larger representation in tho
annual conferences
The committee of missions recommend
ed that the general board of missions
appoint a committee on evangelism to
operate under the home department of
that board to provide for the evangelistic
movements throughout the church. The
conference voted in favor of the measure.
BY far the most confusion since the
conference opened was created by the
discussion as to whether the conference
shall strike out the words 1.-THE holy

tute the words church of Cod Points

times it was almost impossible to state

Rev. ]. w. Perry finally made the point
of order that the question had not been
properly put before the conference, the
point was sustained and the afternoon
session adjourned without the question
being settled.
