Spartanburg, Nov. 29.-The first
annual session of the Upper South
Carolina conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, adjourned
here today to meet next year in
Greenville. The body before ad-
journment went on record in favor

ness, put off until next year the ques-
ton of change Of name and left the

touched officially.
The reading of appointments be-
gan shortly before noon, and were
completed in time for the majority
of the conference delegates to leave

against the policy Of national pre-
paredness recently announced by

nent in the Democratic administra-

by the adoption of a motion on the
part of the body to expunge from the
minutes of the conference and record

been introduced.

tion in a lengthy discussion of the
question involved, mentioning Mr..

by DR.. J. o. Wilson, president of
Lander college, Greenwood, who op-
posed the adoption of any such reso-
luton by the conference. DR.. Wilson

PROMPTNEss SAVED NEGRO.
Governor Promises Quick Trial and
Pickens County Crowd Disperses.

Columbia, Nov. 29.-Prompt ac-
tion on the part of Governor Man
ming in promising to order a special
term of court to try the case probably
saved a lynching in Pickens county
this morning, for the crowd of men
who had assembled with the declared
intention of dealing out summary JUS
tice to Pete Hamilton, a negro, al
legged to have attempted assault on a
white woman, dispersed when assur-
ed that the governor would order a
special term of court to try the case.
Sheriff Roark, of Pickens county, got
hold of the negro and got him out
of the way, and is thought to be on
his way here to the penitentiary with
the prisoner.
Long distance telephone reports
from the scene stated that this morn
ing a crowd of determined white men
gathered at Easley, in Pickens coun-
ty, with the declaration of getting a
negro who was said to have attempt
ed assault on prominent white wo-
man there last Saturday night. Citi-
zens of Easley pleaded with the crowd
to allow the law to take its course,
according to the information, and II
nally this the crowd agreed to do on
the condition that special term OF
court be ordered Immediately by
Governor Manning. The Easley cit1-
zen who was trying to quiet the
crowd telephoned the Governor and
he promptly agreed to call the spec
ial term of court. This being COM
municated to the crowd they dis
persed.
Meanwhile a long distance tele-
phone message from Pickens stated
that Sheriff Roark, of that county,
had secured the negro and was taking
him to a place of safety.
