E. general conference in Cleveland. The first business of the day was the in- troduction of a resolution which provided that all future sessions of the conference be held in church buildings, if possible, and that the committee on entertainment for 1806 be so instructed. It was promptly laid on the table. Another resolution provided that the del- egates, being appreciative of the manner in which they had been and are being enter- tained in this city, that all cities making a bid for the conference should have it fol- lowed with a guarantee of as gocd treat- ment end under the same system and method. It was adopted. A resolution to prevent a duplication of studies In the church schools and public schools in the south, was read, but referred to the Freedman’s Aid Society. Rey. Wittlerspoon of southern California presented a resolution declaring that color and caste do not enter into the conference, and further declaring that a bishop of African descent shall be viewed soleiy in the light of ability and without regard to color. It was presented for adoption, but the conference referred it to the commit- tee on episcopacy. The first formal application for confer- ence of 1900 was presented by Sarutoga Springs, N. Y., and was referred to the committee on entertainment. The committee on freedman’s aid made its first report on a petition from the Dela- ware conference to change the nam2 to Southern Educational Society. The upper Mississippi conference protested against this. The report of the committee was in favor of retaining the name as it is now. The question was debated at some length, d various motions were made to refer or postpone, but all were defeated and the re- port was adopted. Dr. Lanahan moved to reconsider the vote by which Monday next was set as the day for election of officers. In making his mo- tion, Dr. Lanahan said the reasons were manifest why an easier action would be de- sirable, and that more business can be transacted. A general smile was the result of this statement. Dr. Lanahan’s motion was carried almost unanimously. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday were set.- Dr. Buckley made a most humorous argument in favor of Thursday. He referred to the Sabbath, and humorously portrayed the temptations to break the Sabbath, not by candidates, but by their ardent friends, and begged’ that Thursday be substituted. This date was selected, and the elections will begin on Thursday ‘of this week. Dr. Walden then introduced to the conference Rev. Dr. R. F. Rust of Cincinnati, who was his colleague in the managing of the book concern. Rev. Wm. H. Wilder of Ilinois presented resolution which proposed to reduce the salaries of all officers, missionaries and general conference officers, in view of the general depression in business and finances, A protest was entered, but the resolution was referred to the committee on temporal economy. A resolution in condemnation of mob vJo- lence was referred to the committee on state of the church. The special order of presentation of Cleveland pastors was then taken up. The conference then joined in singing Blest Be the Tie That Binds,” after which an adjournment was taken until evening. Enel REN ARMY SURGEONS WILL MEET.

A phy- siclan was called, and he declared that McKenzie was suffering from the effects of morphine. Sulphate of zinc was prescribed as an antidote. Mrs. McKenzie procured the medicine. The diluted sulphate of zing filled a two-ounce bottle. One teaspoonful every two hours was prescribed as a dose. is neighbor who was present says Mrs. icKenzie was intoxicated, and that she gave her husband all of the medicine at one dose. Two hours later he died. When the Relic arrived at the house they found Mrs, icKenzie in bed with the body of her pystend: She was arrested on the charge of drunkenness, and will be held to await the result of the coroner’s inquest. The Ve loe say Mrs. McKenzie was released re ter om thi nitentiary three weeks ago, af- sentence for bigamy. —+o+____ Will Admit Wome: At the annual convention of the Lake AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA Regular Meeting of the Business Men's Railroad Matters and Early Bank Closing—Other Notes of Local In- terest From Down the River. - A regular meeting of the Business Men's League was held in thelr rooms at the cor- ner of King and Washington streets last night, with Vice President Eichberg in the chair.
