IGNORED THE OVERTURE, Action of the M. P. Conference on the Wo: ference at Laurel, Del., yesterday centered in- directly in the question of the eligibility of women to elders’ orders and to election as dele- Gates to the general conference, but directly to the validity of the action of the last general conference in admitting female delegates, and the propriety of the submission by the general conference of the overtures in regard to the same, specitically declaring that a woman could be adiitted to elders’ orders and be elected av a delegate to the general confer- ence. The burden of the speeches was as to the nc- tion itself of the Inst general conference in the matter, in view of the fact that the present law of the church bad, in the past, all along been interpreted ax being opposed to the woman's side of the question. ‘Thus, in the was impossible to form a ‘conclusion as to the actual position of the conference on the sub- ject. ‘This side of the question was bronght ont by the introduction by Rev. Dr. S. B. Souther- land and Mr. C. Ro Button of the following resolution Resolved, That the Maryland annual confer- ence does hereby refuse to vote on the aforesaid overture. Rev. Dr. David Wilson of Washington, D. C., urged that the matter should not be acted upon until the annual conference immediately pre coding the next general conference, which is three years off. Rev. Dr. J. D. Murray, a member of the re- cent general conference, claimed that the method adopted by that body in thus attempt- ing to secure action by the annual conferences on the question was one of indirection. Rev. W. M. Strayer, alsom member of the general conference, was in favor of action by the conference and showed that he was an ar- dent advocate of the woman side of the question. Rev. Dr. T. H. Lewis, president of the West- ern Maryland College, contended that a vote for or against the overture in question must be in either event a vote against one’s conviction. For every one acknowledged the law of the church and its interpretations, at least up to the Inst general conference, had been against the ordaining of a woman as an elder or rigit of representation in conferences. Now, believing this, the pro-woman or anti- woman person who voes on the overture must thereby acknowledge that the whole past course of the church has been inconsistent and directly contrary to its own law of management, and the churea at large would be put into an un- natural and unbistorical position. Rev. J. J. Murray spokgin favor of the reso- lutions, at the same time discussing the posi- tion of the church on the subject and arguing against any change as being contrary to the ible. Rev. Dr. J. L. Steaughn closed the debate, arguing against the resolutions, claiming thai it would be an unheard-of reflection upon the general conference. He then moved to lay the Fesolution on the table, but it was defeated by 8 vote of 71 to 4 The resolution was then adopted. The over- tures making the presidents of Christian En- deavor societies members of the quarterly con- ferences and allowing each society in the eir- cuit to elect its own steward were adopted. ——_+oo———— GEORGE |.
