Wisnixoros, D. (0., May 20.—The Chinese minister, accompanied by the official inter- preter of the lagation, called upon:Secretary of State Gresham and a consultation ensved, lasting nearly half an hour. When Secre- tary Gresham was asked for information upon the subject he said that of course he could not repeat what passed between the Chinese minister and himselt, but that he did feel that he could safely declare that there was now no reason to fear any trouble or outbreak either in tho United States or China growing out of the Chinese law. Tater in the day Chief Justice Fuller of the United States supreme court, who has showed much interest in the legal aspect of the present Chinese situation, had an interview with Secretary Gresham. Secretary Carlisle said today that he would certainly enforce the law deporting Chineso as far as the facilitics at his di vosal would permit. He intended to be with that class of Chinese who were in this country illegally, having come in contraven- tion of the law of 18%4. Having sent this class out of the country, he would then turn his attention to the other and larger class— those who have failed to comply with the Geary law. About 6,000 remains of the appropriation for the present fiseal year to carry out this law, but $60,000 will be availa- ble for this purpose on July 1 next.

Supervising Architect O'Rourke said to- day that nothing would be done in the mat- ter of lotting the contract for the Omaha public building for which bids have already been opened until Senator Manderson ar- rived here next week. He said also that there was a grobubllll,v that the specifica- tions would be changed somewhat before the contract was let. This, as I intimated mn a dispatch to Tue Brr, would probably ne- cessitate a readvertisement for bids, as most of the bidders will object to having the specifications changed after their bids have been submitted, Bids for Army Hendquarters.

C., May 20.—John Willls Bacr, secretary of the United Societles of Christian Endeavor, called on Attorney Gen- eral Olney today in regard to closing the World’s fair on Sunday. Olney said that as the appropriations by the government to the fair were on condition that the fair be closed on Sunday, it would ba the duty of the Na- tional commission to sece this carried out. Olney added that two weeks ago he instructed the district attorney at Chicago to secure an injunction restraining the man- agement from opening the gates on Sunday if necessary to keep them closed. Olney said further that the government exhibits would be closed on that day and that the national government would see that the entire expo- sition be closed by applying to the district court of Chicago for an injunction. This might result in great delay in reaching a de- cision and that in the meantime the exposi- tion would be open and that the Chic.go di- rectory was counting on just this. Olney said he anticipated no unusual delay. CHILDREN THRONG THE GROUNDS, Big Saturday Attendance at the World's Falr—Attractions for Tonlght. Cr1CAGo, 111, May 20.~The “White City" was alive with school children today. The sun shone brightly and the témperature was quite high, so that the shade was grateful to pedestrians. The fact that there is no school Saturday and the reduction in the price of admission for children to 25 cents had the effeot of bringing them out by the thousands. This influx did not decrease the number of adults in attendance. On the contrary, it had a tendency to increase, as the little people re- quired chaperons. A grand night fete to be given tonight is expécted to be unusually fine, as the great electrio system is now in full and perfect running order. The most brilliant and strik- ing effects in the iliumination of the build- ings and grounds are expected. MONDAY. National Commisston Defers Acting on the Sunday Opening Questlon.

The carpets were put down in the two front rooms and the furniture moved in, ‘The carpet is a Wilton velvet, and is ex- tremely rich in appearance.

THE OMATMA DAILY ‘BEE: SUNDAY, MAY 21, MANAGEMENT OF CHURCHES Recommendations on the Bubject to the Presbyterian General Assembly. PRESENT METHODS CAUSE TROUBLE Diaconal System of Management Favored by the Committee—Indigent Ministers ‘Who Receive Relief - Meetings of Other Denominations—Religlous Notes, Wasniveroy, D. €., May 20.—At today's session of the Presbyterian general assem- bly the report of the committee on minis- terial relief was presented and approved. Tt showed that there are now on the rolls of the board 722 persons, fifty-seven of whom cer- tify that they are absolutely in need of £300 ayear. The others are content with less, The total disbursements of board last year were $152402. The report urged larger sub- scriptions to this fund. Rev. John Fox, D.D., chairman of the special committee on methods and manage- ment of church imperialities, presented his report. The committee recommenaed a change in the form of government looking to a diaconal system of management rather than that of trustees, which is extra-consti- tutional and oftertimes leads to a condition of things in opposition to the teachings of the church, and from which there is no re- lief except by appeal to the civil courts. The committee further recommended that in the meantime the following deliverance be made by the general assembly: ‘‘The fancrnl assembly takes notice that there are equent complaints that trustees of congre- Rations assume powers and authority, espe- cially over music and in the use of public buildings, which are not warranted by but in contlict with the constitution of the church. The assembly enjoins upon the churches loyal adherence to our form of gov- ernment, which provides that the authority of the session over all matters of worship is paramount and at the same time recom- mends that all such questions be treated by the session with Christian tact and courtesy in the spirit of love and forbearance.” The report was made the special order for next Thursday morning. The assembly then adjourned to meet Monday morning. WOMEN D! GATES, Cumberland Presbyterians Admit Mrs. Cluggett to the General Assembly. Lrttie Rock, Ark., May 20.—The devo- tional exercises of the general assembly of the Cumberland Presbyterians this morning were conducted by Rev. G. A. Blair of Ogden. At the close Rev. J. M. Hubbert moved to suspend the rules and consider the report of the special commitiee on elections. The majority report of the committee was made yesterday afternoon as follows: *‘Your com- mittee appointed to pass upon the eligibility of Mrs. P, I, Claggett to a seatv in this assembly as a representative of Nolin pres- bytery would report that in view of the ex- pression of the last general assembly Mrs. Claggett is entitled to a seat as o delegato, We, therefore, recommend that her name be enrolled as a commissioner from Nolin pres- bytery. Your committee does not desire to R passing upon tho legal or constitutional aspect of this question, bul act in view of the previous deliverance o this body. D. W. Niel of Keutucky insisted on seat- iog Mrs. Claggett. A long discussion fol- lowed. Mr. Templeton resumed his argument, which was the special order of Friday, in- terrupted for the substitution of the minor- ity for the majority report. Mr. Hubbert raised the point of order that the pending motion did not raise for discus- sLnin the constitutionality of women member- ship. After alengthy discussion, Mr. Hubbert's point of order was sustained by the modera- tor and the constitutionality of Mrs. Clag- gett's credentials was not debatable. The Yote then recurred on the substitution of the miutirny for the majority yeport and the mi- nority report was laid on the table, Mr., Buquoa then moved the previous ques- tion, which proyailed, there being about forty digsenting votes. Mrs. éll\ggcu was declared entitled toa seat 1n the assembly. The lady elaer was requested to stand up that the members of the assembly might know her. She mod- estly granted the request. This does not settle the battle, for the committee on over- tures raised the general question of wo- man’s eligibility to eldership on which the committee is to report tomorrow. The aftgrnoon session was devoted mainly to a consideration of a report of the board of publication, submitfed by General Man- ager Gault. A good profit is shown for the year, the volume of business having been the argdst in the history of their publishing house. .
