NEW YORK. JULY PA movement
IL or, foot to create the American Meth
odist Church.
IL successful. as now seems probable,
IL Will mean a body Of 100000 actual
members. possibly 100000. or Meth
odist population OF 1s.0oO,G0O to
90 900. 600. or By far the largest re-
ligious body in America.
While there is opposition in some
quarters. especially in the north, de-
tails are being ironed out, IL Is said
and the plan is more than likely to go
through. The uncertainty in regard
TO numbers is due to lack of knowledge
as to how many bodies may come in
All now talk favorably. II all come
in the larger number will be the size
of this giant of religious bodies.
American MethodisIn was split over
slavery. the break coming as early as
1s44. at general conference held In
New York city. Now the unique plan
is proposed. and already approved by
Methodists South. of creating one
Methodist Church that has four parts
to II. Each of the parts will have it's
distinct board Of bishops, and it's own
Guadrennial conference. Then over all
will be a supreme body, composed of
delegates from the four general ones.
The plan is not a merger of Methodism.
but the reorganization of all and the
creation of a wholly new American
Methodist Church.
The four bodies proposed are the
white Methodists of the south, the col
ored Methodists of the south, the Meth
odists of the east and the Methodists
of the west.
Opposition has come from some quar-
tiers over what looks like a division
of the great northern body Of Moth

port of the league at that church hav
ing reported fourteen names of persons

While the institute has been arranged
by the District Epworth League, a cor
dial invitation to attend has been ex-
tended to all persons who desire to in
crease their efficiency in the work of
the church and at the same time spend
pleasant vacation in the mountains
The committee has arranged the rail-

Chairman Ralph Williamson of the

that registrations will be received up

odists as at present constituted, but
it is said to be the growing opinion
that east and west involve such dis
tances If not differences that for mere
matters of administration bishops and
a general conference for each will save
time and expense. and lead to closer
supervision and larger growth. The
question of general boards. so far as
determined, favors one of each kind
for all American Methodism
If that plan obtain American Meth
odists will possess the largest mission
AIRY, Sunday school and ministerial re-
lief societies in the world.
1t is the expectation of Methodists
who are favoring this plan that Meth
odist Professionals. a body of some
100000 members, will come in in a few
years. Then 1T is also expected that
some colored churches of the south
will join with the colored Methodists.
They are said to favor such a union.
The present Methodist enthusiasm
toward union holds out that there are
a million or two such colored Meth
odists to join. running the total of this
proposed American Methodist Church
up to the 100000 members already
mentioned.
There would then be a board of Meth
odist bishops composed wholly of col
ored men. Independent in conduct of
their own affairs. but united with all
Methodists In general body. not yet
named. to which all four Methodist
bodies will send delegates.
For some years Methodist union has
been talked. In its main features this
present plan was brought forward by
council of Methodists. north and
south. The south has accepted 1t. and
now 1t is up to the Methodists Of the
north. who meet at Saratoga next year.
There has been good deal of oppo-
sition. but 1t Is said now to be disap-
pearing. Leaders on both sides are
known to be working toward the plan
as outlined.

to have a daily newspaper, of which
Rev. DR.. S. ]. Herben is to be the
editor.
An important matter in connection
with the conference, which Methodist
educators are now heading up. Is that
of endowment of some fifteen colleges.
Four years ago minimum endow-
ment was fixed to secure recognition as
college by the Methodist board of
education. 1t was found that not only
were many so-called colleges below
safety in the matter of endowment, but
that some institutions were using the
name without possessing any endow-
ment whatever. The campaigns now
on. to finish by January, are to
strengthen Methodist education. Some
colleges have successfully completed
their funds.
