The Bishop mon Gos commence That | After Lenten No Change Would Be Made— The Feeling Increasing. The conference between Bishop Hurst and the representatives of the various Methodist churches in this city, arranged for Satur- day evening, has been postponed by the bishop until this evening at 8 o'clock. In the meantime, it is stated, the bishop has been busily engaged in corresponding with he pastors of the churches which have cted in the matter of protesting against the removal of Dr. Naylor, and is seeking to ascertain whether their official boards were legally called together, and whether those who voted for the resolutions to be presented to Bishop Fowler, through him, constitute a majority of their respective bodies. It is also learned that the bishop has already communicated with Bishop Fowler and an advance opinion has been formulated adverse to any request for the restoration of Dr, Naylor, whether by in- dividuals or by the official bodies of the churches in the Washington district. Papers to Be Presented. At the meeting this evening it is stated that the papers to be presented are very strong and outspoken in their sentiments of regret at the action of Bishop Fowler, and in the manner and method of his re- moving Dr. Naylor from the Washington district. These resolutions condemn the abuse of power, whether by a bishop or any legislative body, that enacts unwise laws or lays down a code that in its en- forcement entails trouble and ill-feeling. The committee to whom has been intrusted the duty of presenting the action of the official boards held a meeting on Saturday evening and formulated a letter of trans- mittal, which paper expresses what they believe to be the almost universal senti- ment of the churches in condemnation of Bishop Fowler's action. Conversation with pastors and official men of some of the dis- senting churches evidences the widespread alarm that exists in their membership, and, while refraining from active participation in the movement looking to the restoration of Dr. Naylor, they realize that a strong feeling of regret and resentment is abroad among their membership toward the arbi- trary and so far unexplained act of the pre- siding bishop of the late conference. No tangible reason seems to have existed in the minds of the preachers or the laity that would induce a change in the eldership of the Washington district. No demand for removal went up from any of the churches, but, on the contrary, quarterly conferences at their last meeting before the annual con- ference petitioned for Dr. Naylor's retention. What Kishop Hurst Told One Com- mittee. Bishop Hurst has seen one committee of local Methodists which represented the missionary and womans work in the church. He told this pody that there would be no change made and that Dr. Naylor would not be restored. He said that his own name had been connected with the af- fair unjustly and that he was well aware who was responsible for sich gossip. The spokesman of the committee told Bishop Hurst that he was mistaken in attributing the connection of himself with Dr. Naylor's removal to any one man or vet of men. He was informed that it was almost the unant- mous sentiment of Methodists in the Dis- trict that he was responsible for Lishop Fowler's action. Bishop Hurst warmly de- nied the truth of this belief and exclaimed that Bishop Fowler had made up his mind to remove Dr. Naylor before he came here. He did not reply to the commitiee’s in- quiry as to where Bishop Fowler got his information on which to pase a future ac- tion in a field to which he was a perfect stranger. Bishop Hurst complained also of the publicity the newspapers have given to the controversy, and was informed by one of the committee that he had never com- Piained about the publicity given to the Methodist University project, and that the great body of Methodists in this district regarded that the present discussion was being held over a subject as vitally im- portant to the cause of Methodism as the university itself, What One Who Was at the Confer- ence Says. The following communication was re- ceived today from a Methodist residing in this city: “I had the pleasure of attending the ‘conference at Frederick, of mingling with the ministers after the daily sessions, and of hearing much concerning the dif- ferent appointments, and from what I could learn, the whole cause of ali the complaint seemed to be laid at the feet of one of the Baltimore elders, who, for the past ten or twelve years, has been the ‘one man power’ that has dictated most of the appointments in the councils. “Of course, as our ministers become some- What ‘gray-haired,’ the elders find it im- possible to locate them as easily as the younger ministers, and, as such is the case, frequently take it upon themselves to sug- sest to the presiding bishop that they be given a very small and unimportant ap- pointment, with a view of eventually com- pelling them to retire. Such action is in- deed true, and sad, for after having spent all their lives in the ministry, and sacrificed everything for the benefit of the church, they are cast aside and turned out into the cold without homes or support. Much of tnis could be averted if the elders, and yot the bishops, were disposed to be more char- itable than they are. “As is well known there is a small ‘clique’ of ministers in the Baltimore conference, who want the best of the appointments at all times, and hence every effort is put forth to try and secure representation in the councils, so that their individual claims may be looked after, while those not mem- bers of the ‘clique’ must take what they have given to them. Proof of this state- ment Was never more strongly shown than in the appoiutment of an elder from the West Baltimore to the East Baltimore dis- trict, while our beloved Dr. Naylor is re- moved to an unimportant charge in com- parison to his former position. “It is only natural that some people, not conversant with the doings of our conference, will rise up and attempt to disprove this statement, but past history cannot be effaced, and unless the members of the churches themselves take the mat- ter in hand, and urgently protest against this ‘one-man power’ in the conference, it will not be long before the Methodist Church will be seriously embai 2 tom cokeele Cheapen Bread. To the Editor of The Evening Star: “At a meeting of the bakers of Hagers- town it was decided that on and after Mon- day, March 26, they would put twenty-four ounces of dough in each 5-cent loaf of bread, instead of twenty-two ounces, as they are doing at present. Several bakers advised reducing the price of a loaf of twenty-two ounces to 4 cents,.but, for con- venience in making change and other re: sons, it was decided to make the loave: larger and retain the old prices. All the bakers will be obliged to buy new pans, which will be expensive, pans costing one baker $70 and another about $150. It is thought many people will now buy their bread instead of baking it themselves. The reduction in the price of bread was made to! conform to the reduction in the price of flour.” The above, taken from a western Mary- land paper, I commend to the bread bakers of this city. It has long been a wonder that our Commissioners have not turned their attention to this outrage upon the poor and the injustice upon the better class of our citizens. It is but a simple act of justice, now that flour can be had for $4.50 per bar- rel, that bread should be reduced or loaves made to conform to the new order of things. There is no law requiring this in Maryland, but there the bakers are content with a fair profit. JUSTICE. Poppers is Dend. “Poppers,” for thirty years a well-known character about the hotels of Washington, died at midnight Friday at his residence, No. 15 F street northwest. He was a ven- der of flowers, and in that manner amas: ed a fortune estimated to amount to be- tween $75,000 and $100,000, although the ma- jority of his acquaintances supposed him to be a poor man. The full name of the de- ceased was Leon Poppers. He was fift seven ycars of age and left a wife and sev- eral daughters. > Killed by His Daughter. J. F. Willis of Homer, Ga., was killed last week by his daughter Lillian and wife. The news of the tragedy did not leak out for several days until a son, Francis, eleven years cf age, told it to neighbors. The daughter and the mother were both arrest- ed and given a preliminary trial, when they were re! don the daughter's story that her father was choking her mother to death, when she brained him with an ax.
