stituted part of the New Jersey Con-
ference of the M. 3. Church. was yes
terday afternoon sent to the confer
ence. which opened 1te seventy-sixth
annual session here last night
In defending Its charter against the
legislative attacks Of residents who de-
mand suffrage and a borough form Of
government, the association directors
have protested that Ocean Grove Is a
part of the Methodist Church and that
the State has no power to interfere
with its government.
In their four years Of agitation this
is the first move the borough has made
to bring It's cause before the State
body of the Methodist Church Dis
cussion Of the situation in Ocean
Grove is expected to bring about one
of the lfveliest debates Of the session.
The conference was opened at the
First M. e.. Church last night with

Rev. H. M. Blake. of Freehold, and a
reception to Bishop Joseph B. Berry,
of Buffalo, presiding officer. Among

WILL
SHIFT MINISTERS
AT Least Two Local Methodist
Pastors Said to Be
Slated.

Despite the advance statement given
out some time ago that there would
be few if any shifting of local pastors
at the coming session of the Newark
Methodist Episcopal conference, to
open in Montclair on Wednesday,
March ~, it is now understood that az
least two, If not more, divines holding
charges in this city are slated to "go
to pastures new"
Rev. Frederick C. Mooney. who is
closing a four-years' pastorate at the
Union Street Church. the formerly al
lotted time limit, it is said, will not be
returned for another year, notwith-
he continue as their pastor. DIR. Moo
ney succeeded Rev. Hedding Bishop
Leech in 1908. Who will be named in
his stead has not been stated. Il is
understood that Rev. Mr.. Mooney de-
sires a change, feeling that he has
successfully fulfilled his mission at the
local church.
The second divine who is likely to De
assigned to a new charge is Rev.
Enoch Meachem, who is terminating a
two-year term at the Trinity Church.
at Warren and Wilsey streets. The
local charge. despite the merging o
the former and st. Andrews flock with
1t one year ago, is one of the smallest
of the denomination in this city. AS.
DR.. Meachem came here from a large
and fourishing church in Elizabeth,
the Franklin Street Methodist, his adj
vancing years made the rebuilding OF
the flock a somewhat strenuous pro-
position.
On account of it's undesirable loca-
ton, through the shifting of the popu-
lation, it is only a question of a few
years when the Trinity congregation
will be compelled to unite with one of
the uptown churches.
A third pastoral change, which is of
local interest and which, it is said,
will be made in the Elizabeth district,
will be the shifting of Rev. DR.. Thomas
I. Coultas from st. James's Church,
Elizabeth, to a new charge, to be
named by the bishop. DR.. Coultas was
formerly pastor Of the Halsey Street
Church, this city, and was succeeded
by the present divine, Rev. DR.. j. c.
Howard, in 1908.
The latter is also closing a four
year ~pastorate at the local church,
while its official board is seeking
DR.. Howard's return, it is not
definitely known whether he will be
here by Bishop Berry.
The other local Methodist divines
are reposing on the anxious seat
are Rev. DR.. w. H.. Morgan, at the
Central Church. Rev. Warren r. Neff,
at the De Groot Church, n Rev.
Dorr f. D~iefendorf, at the RoseVilie
Methodist Church.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Presi-

Senator Culberson, heading the Texas
delegation in Congress, participated in
the conference. The President appealed
to them to help him preserve peace by
preventing violations of the present
neutrality laws along the Mexican Dor
der, and suggested that some steps be
taken at once for the enactment of
more adequate neutrality laws.
The conference was a direct result OF
the appeal of President Madero of Mex
leo to President Taft through Ambas-
sador Martinez y Crespo here that the
United States put into effect a s~tricteI
neutrality in Texas. The ambassador
had suggested to the President that the
present laws were framed in the early
part of the last century when prob
lens such as recently have arisen were
not even dreamed of.
Mexico, in effect, asked the United
States to prevent shipments of arms
