THE METHODISTS. Heir Conference at Omaha. jmen tit Cause of Contention. Demacda for a Slack Bishop. Omaha, May s.

ni routine observed la Um organisation, tjf Methodist general eonferenee doe Biot Mia to promise mack in the way of Tber er. the usual devotion than tb. roU call then the seating tbe aad fir ail busineee. Vnjeaa are the items, simply stated, and ona njot f.T"irij vita snob gstherloga would axpeet dry preliminaries of this description ft paaa off ta the moat humdrum atyle Imaginable. Bat tbe Methodists ara a vary earnest people.

What they believe tliay believe Intensely. It is thia charaotenatio which baa mada tbam tbe great power they ar la all modern reform, aad In evangelizing tbe masse. Naturally, too, the earae spirit of aggressiveness la aeea In their great quadrennial conclave. For real excitement the Methodist general conference aa bald lta own with the most II rely of oar political conventions, and la aome reapecu eaally takea the palm from these, la po Utloal itatberiaga the interest la soon over BooeaaarUy ao boeanae the meeting Itself ade ao eoon, Bat la the general conference the exeitameat la long drawn oat. It oatinues, indeed, with aeareely any fluctuation for a fall month, aad what la equally surprising, the tide of Interest aa high manally at the beginning aa when the bnsi eaa baa proeeedad for a weak or two and the aleetione are la progress.

The rseson for thia la that almost always before the eonferenee aan get Itaelf Into proper shape, there la aome knotty and del foate problem to solve, 'ear years ago the women were knocking for admission, and the lortls of creation, la eonferenee assembled, were required, at the Tery threshold of their deliberatioaa. to answer thia sum mans and give a decision there and then aa to whether or not women should be allowed a aaat la that body. Thia time the bone of contention was not the lay woman bat the layman. The eonferenee oonsUte of sot delecatesL Among these the laymen eat a Agere of only about ISO. Hence they are at a great disadvantage.

They have felt thia, aad have asked la a eonetitaiional way for qua! representation with the clergy. Bat the clergy for the present have negatived thia reqaeet. The question, therefore, whlob presented Itaelf. waa. bow to make the moat, for the time being, or the repre aentaflon they already possessed.

This, it waa concluded, could beat be doae by dividing the house. Heretofore laymen and mln latera bava aat tocether. Let ua now sit apart, they said, aad finally, after a long aad exciting debate, the eonferenee gave lta sanction to thia project. Some of the most prominent of the laymen were opposed to thia new departure. A mo Bbinkle, who baa been a delegate to Tery general eonferenee sinee the laymen ware first admitted ia 1872.

waa decidedly against it. It looked too maeh, he said, like dividing the sheep from the goata. Bat Postmaster field, of Philadelphia, aald It would mark a new era ta Methodist legislation, and he waa probably right In thia prediction. The division makes it certain that layinea will have a larger ah are la the de batea. aad equally certain that they will themselves more frequently thaa before of those constitutional right, by which, ta eertaia contingencies, the lay minority can pit itaelf with aueeeaa, wbea a la takea, against the ministerial majority.

Moat of tne laymen who were at favorable to the change still ait with their ministerial colleague. This, bow aver, hardly continue beyond the present session, and It la reasonably eertaia, not only that from tola time the two orders will continue to alt apart, bat that before very long they will be equalized in number. Beyond the change Just noted there la 1ft Yle la the aspect of the eonf erenoe or la the conduct of ft basinets to distinguish It from Its three latest predecessor. Una misses, to be sure, a few honored forma and slaw familiar voieea. The cruel reaper Baa fathered from ua aome of theae, and some others a good many others ara not with no because their cruel brethren failed to ota for them.

Dr. Buckley baa estimated that something Ilka nine tenths of the members of thia body are new men. But who would suspect this if be were to listen to the proceeding with bis eyea closed. Tne fact la, abat nearly all of the ra nonce talkee talkee' which la done ia sustained by the one tenth, which, like the poor, ara alweya with as. Not tnat the others are not able to talk.

Many of them eould keep the ball of oratory rolling, if they bad the chance, quit, aa wau aa toe oia timers ao. Bat aome of these, thoogh they try hard enough, find it impossible to get the floor, and some othera of them to the happy relief of the ehatrman and to tne Intense gratification of the regular performers remain silent, we may wall believe, oat of pure chanty. After all. though, the dl sen salons are' intensely interesting, and perbapa they ara bo leaa ao to" one who has bad long experience iin lintenlng to them, and ia whose ears the voices of these great orators are familiar as households songs, than to those who bear them far the tint time. Kvery day in thia eonferenee we ait under the ap.ll of debater wbo are probably not anr Bsed 1b any religious assembly In the world.

They speak often, but they always apeak wall, and fortunately, the rolea are ueb that they never speak long at a time. Dr. C. QueaJU of Maw York, would be hard to beat anywhere when aonnd lorio aad oanvioelBg foroe ara ia demand. The best constitutional lawyer in theoonferenoa, 1 earing Bishop Morrill out of the aooount, la Dr.

JP. B. Neely. of Philadelphia, the clearness, the accuracy, the conciseness and the readiness of his flow of speech, together witu that perfect mastery of very occasion and every subject for which be 1 so justly famed. Dr.

J. M. Buckley, the great Methodist editor, la 'Without a peer. Bat the noblest Roman of them all is the eourtly. snare, genial, btg bodled.

big toralnd aad large u.srtml John Lenahen, of Baltimore, wbo may really be said to Rave been the life and soul of every general for twenty years. He always speaks to the point, and ona of the points ha ten makes la the call for the lro nous question. baa become known Indeed aa Previous Qneetlon Lananan al tnough at thia conference he Is being bustled for first place ta this matter by two Illinois men, Dr. Curt and Dr. McElroy.

and thus la the star of general conference polarity, like that other star we have ardof a few times, taking lta course westward. Oreat, however, as la tbe Interest la the onferenee itaelf, tbe real interest for many la In the lobbies and In the hotels. Here the delegates are seen in tbe enjoy men of social converse, and in gastronowie diver sions ror watch the Methodist clergy have been famous from time immemorial. Hera. too.

one may easily pick up the currant aroeaip in regara to men ana measures. Some will have it that there ia any amount of wire pulling and log rolling going on. Bat thia la a mistake. There are plenty of wining Barais's, ana hardly anyone la so yvoriy vu mm no n.TO a inCQQ or two to atana sponsor lor him. Bat to aver that man are scneming to get otnee, or to say that there Is anything wicked In a good man peaking a good word for another good man Is a monstrous perversion of things which la themselves are natural and harmless.

It la still uncertain whether any bishops will be elected, but there Is no underlain sound in tbe many voloea which aay there ought to be. The delegates from Europe want a bishop located in Germany, and Bishop Waldea Indorsee their demand, and shows by aa able argument bow greatly an episcopal residence would help the work in that ooatiaent. China likewise puu In a claim. 6be asks two things from the eonferenee. First, that it aheil aay definitely whether a man wbo baa two wtvea can ba received aa a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, and, secondly, aaat It shall send her a full fledged bishop aa the request says "not a.

bishop for wnioh means not a missionary bishop, "but a bishop in China." It la demanded, too, by large numbers of the delegates, and by multitudes outside, that full episcopal authority be given to Bishop Thoburn, of India, and Bishop Taylor, of Afrioat ttiat, in other words, these men a hall oease to be simply missionary bishops and be given co ordinate Jurisdiction and with the rest of the episcopal dlgnltarle. And, withal aa many think there ought to be at least four men added to th a episcopal force at borne. Thue there is a strong call for help In this direction, and in ease the bars are let dawn, there are plenty of men to choose from. On the first ballot four years ago TOtea were oast for more thaa eighty, though only five could be elected. And what makes the situation so appal line to tiie would be prophet is that most of these eighty are still In the field, with many pos louiuinnuoBif, we snouia think, however, that of all the guesses ventured that ia tbe most likely to be ulnMled whlob r.

to I tne nuinoer oi new Bishops at three aay ana waica goes on to say that of rO be a book ageaa. em mlaaioaary eeeretary and on a pastor, course, tbe book agent la Dfc Cranston; the mlaaioaary eeeretary may be either Dr. LaoaardorDr. MeCebe, and the pastor. ab, there's the cub.

But if eurrent talk aBaaagat lafleeatlal saaa goes for anything, it is not unlikely thaa the pastor who wba promoted Kr. ffa Kast Bred back, who went east from Cincinnati six year ago. who Una mada aaca a marvewu um prassioa te Kew England that tne sew Eng land eoafereaoa. waica te iiuim deeerrlBg men, baa seat htm here aa ana ef the most honored of its delegate. btlll with Dr.

J. W. Hamilton, of the same eoaf erenoe. aad Dr. J.

M. King, of Hew York, aad Dr. Frank Bristol, of Chicago, and Dr. O. H.

Payne, of Ohio, aad Dr. J. M. Backley. of the Christian Advocate, and a bostef other good men and true all being urged by anmeroae friends for episcopal honor, who can tell what win aappea.

There is certainly no lack of man for the places; tbe only trouble la that the plaoee may act be open. It mast be noted la closing that tbe episcopal situation is complicated somewhat perhaps without offense one may say It ia clouded a little by the demand of ao many that a colored bishop be elected. Long ago the M. E. church so nth act ap lta beloved member for themselves.

That is. it orgaa ised them into a eborea of their own. But this body, which baa been the special friend of that race ana baa spent mllliions of dollars apes them aiaee tbe war, baa felt thaa far that it could beht continue lta guardianship over them by keeping tbam in regular fellowship with Itself, occasionally, too, it baa honored them with aome general conference office. Thus far. newever, since tbe death ef tbe colored bishop in Liberia, it baa seen fit to keep them at arm's tleagtn from episcopal honors, aad the prevailing sentiment baa been that a long time most elapae before lta policy in thia matter could be judiciously changed.

Bull, there have alware been a few even among the white Methodist who have held advanced views on this subject, aad recently the rank of tbnao radical nave been considerably ao entcd. On the part of the colored delrg ea the demand for a black bishop Is by no means nnaatmous. but it is made very urgently by moat of and the eonferenee will bava to consider it. Fear years ago the candidate of the eolored section waa Dr. W.

a. Peek, aad forty two Tote were east for him. In thia eonferenee several meu of tnat race are likely to be brought lerward. Dr. Peek la still a possibility in ease a colored bishop should be elected; bat Dr.

Albert, of Kew Orleans, Dr. Hagood. of Kentucky, Dr. Hammona, also of Kantncay. and Dr.

Bo wen. of Washington, are also being canvassed for the place, and It would perhape be qolta safe to predict, that, in the contingency named, one out of the five men here mentioned will walk off with the prise. The probabilities are, however, that the mountain will labor oa thia subject, aa it baa done oa other occasions, without bringing forth any thing. H. T.

During the week past discount waa quiet at 1 for three months and for short. All the indication ooint "to the continuance of the extreme ease of the money market. A single gold shipment from tbe east of half a million sterling is now due and farther ahlpmente from New York are also expected, while the supplies are about to be further increased by the payment of treasury bills aggregating At tbe same time tbere is no inquiry in the open market for expert bullion.

Later tbe price hardened awing to a perceptible demand for India, closing yeaterday at for bars, with Mexican dollars at Mfed. Kapee paper waa also "better, advancing He for tbe week. The leading feature en the tock Exchange waa the expansion of the public demand for Investment securities. The revival baa not yet teach ed speculative stocks, bat the activity of the best eiass is certain to extend eoon.

Tbe refusal of bankers to allow interest on fresh deposits diverts money to the Stock Exchange, causing a stream of Investing orders.

This upward movement did not aU'ect American rail reads. Borne Investment dealing helped to strengthen prices, but operators, awaiting, aa usual, an impulse from New York, are still apathetic Tentative movements here appear to be powerless to give spring to this department. Dealers bave ceased predicting an early boon in the face of the fact that every condition favorable for a revival has been nelected by Mew York.

Am IsTeator C3alma to Have SolTed JZrlal Xarigatioa. Britiii SHp Join VL BlaiHe Totally Wrecked 5ear Aujer. Sorwetjlaa Steamer JLalesiuid Chartered for tne Fruit Trade. A Quarter's Shipbuilding. From the returns compiled by Lloyd's Register of Shipping.

It appears that, ex eluding warships, there were 483 vessels ef 83,078 tons gross uuder construction in the united kingdom at the dose of the quarter ended 31st March, 1S93. Of these. 854 were ateamera with a grosa tonnage of 647,763 and 137 sailing vessels with a gross tonnage of Tbe corresponding quarter in last year showed that there were 449 veseela of 804,848 tons under oonttractlon. and of theae 437 were ateamera with a gross tonnage of 676.233, and 123 sailing vessels with a gross tonnage Of 129,563. Comparing the present returns with those for tbe quarter ended Slat December, 1891.

an increase la obaerved in the tennare of vessels under construction of 50,000 tons. This increase baa taken place wholly in respect of steamers, the sailing tonnage remaining practically stationary at the high proportion of over 33 per cent of tbe work in hand. Tbe total tonnage bow under construction is greater than at aay period ainoe March. 1890. More teaa half the sailing tonnage or aver 100,000 tonal Is being built en tbe Clyde; about a quarter la distributed between, the districts ef Belfast, Leith and Liverpool, leaving only about 45,000 tone under 6on structlon at all tbe remaining shipbuilding porta of tbe united kingdom.

It is remarkable that, of the very large total of 411,000 tone which ia under construction on the northeast coast, the sailing tonnage only amountato about 17.000 tons, or a per cent, A considerable falling off from last quarter's fly urea is observed to tbe returns of Teasels for the construction of which preparations are being made. At the end of 1891 there were reported 148 vessels, of 399. 614 tons, aa preparinar; tbe present returns show 118 vessels, of 773,216 tons, divided between steam and sailing vessels aa follows: Steamers 84. gross tons sail 33, gross tons 60.MO. The high proportion ef sailing vessela which baa prevailed of late la maintained, aa will be seen In the vessels whieb are about te be put in hand.

It may be added that, although the tonnage now preparing is less than tbe tonnaare preparing three months ago. It Is. nevertheless, above tbe average of recent returns. Of tbe 493 vessels now being constructed 870 are for the united kingdom and 13 for tha British colonies, tbe third bast being Austria, for wbieh country 7 vessels are on the atocka. Clasblned according to tonnage, tbe following Interesting figures come out Under Sot) tone, 76 steam, 38 sail: 300 to 499 tons.

Phillips aa pr.sld.nt, baa furnished the money to put the invention to a practical test, and bas contracted for the building of one of the air ships at aa Elmira shop. The ship will be eigar ehapbd or in the form of a double cone, and about 300 feet long and 30 feet In diameter at the eenter. The principal material to be used is aluminum. There will be no ear or apparatus hanging beneath, aa tbe passeagere and machinery will bo carried within ta body of the ship. Tbe buoyant power will be hydrogen gee.

Cooley eipsots a machine of the size indicated to carry ten passengers and all needful machinery and supplies, at the rate of from 100 te 900 inilea aa boor. He maintains that his perfected airship will at oaee put an end to all forma of war, becaaaa no body of armed men and no fortification oould exist for any length of time against a rain of dynamite shells from aa airship.
