Second Day’s Session Proves e as Successful as the Opening. It Is Proposed to Hold Another Annual Convention and Crowds Are Expected. The second day's session of the Epworth League in the Howard-street Church was a repetition, so far as success s con- cerned, of the opening day. From early morn until late at night the prettily deco- rated place of worship was crowded to the doors and patriotic speeches, which were, Intermingled with religious bless- ings, were again heard. It is hard for an outsider to determine who recelves the most attenion from the audience, as each speaker is greeted with a round of applause. The morning ser- vice opened with song, led by O. E. Holte, followed by expression of thanks to the Almighty by many present for religious blessings. Robert Husband, musical di- rector, presided at the organ and many hymns were sung under his direction. The first paper of the morning was read by Mrs. Inez Randolph on “Our Interme- diates.” The subject was also discussed ) | by members of the convention. President Dennett was of the opinion that the great | trouble often experienced with young peo- | ple was the fact that an attempt was | often made to stuff an adult's religion down a youngster's throat. Mrs. Etta B. Lloyd spoke on “The Ju- niors and the Church,” and was followed | by Rev. E. L. Thompson, who gz.ve his views regarding ‘‘Some Difficulties and | Some Dangers of Our League.” This sub- Ject was also discussed by many of the members of the society, who were fol- | lowed by Miss Frances Healy on the sub- | Ject, “Mercy and Help.” Professor Hunt | spoke strongly against indiscriminate charity, and Dr. Bartley thought the or- phan asylums needed considerable atten- tion. “The Soclal Department” was deftly handled by Miss Kate Ames prior to a | meeting of the various districts to elect | officers for the coming year. A commit- tee was appointed to endeavor to have the next meeting of the board of control | held in this city. Then the election of of- ficers was held. In the San Francis district B. Perkins was elected pr ident; Miss Libby Cumming, first vi president; George Erhart, second vice- | D Miss_Fanny Johnson, third | vice-president C. Hurlburt,’ corrs- sponding sec; R. J.

Stone, for faflure to keep Broadway In repair at the crossing of Thirteenth street, was dismissed by Judge Allen this morning, as the place had been fixed. In rendering his decision Judge Allen said the railway officials should not have been brought into court. He believed that the other two compa- nies using the street should have been made equal defendants. —_——— Seconds the Commission. BERKELEY, April 23.—Rev. Pierce, pastor of the Baptist | heartily agrees with Rev. Dr. Coyle that it is the duty of ministers not to foment strife, but to pour oil on the troubled waters. Since all cannot fight, it is the duty of those who do not, to engage in works of peace and mercy. This can be accomplished by nursing the sick and wounded, regardless of race. To effect this more thoroughly a sanitary commis- ‘sim\ should be formed, and in conjunc- tion with the Red Cross great good could | be accomplished. This should be the true Christian spirit, and should be mani- fested by all followers of Christ. D. J. Church, TRUST FUNDS ALSO SUFFER Exact Amount of Wid- ber’s Defalcations Is $117,088 79.

The commission, including Mayor Phelan, Auditor Broderick and Judge Troutt, together with Chief Lees, Chief Deputy de la Montanya and a representative of the Surety Company that is on Widber’s bond, concluded the work of counting the money in the Treasurer’s vaults at 5 o’clock last evening, with the result given above. ‘While the police pension fund suffers to the extent of nearly $1200, the school- teachers’ annuity and retirement fund remains intact. This is a special fund raised by deducting a certain amount from the salaries of the teachers each | month, and is in the custody of a spe- cial commission, consisting of the Mayor, Treasurer and Superintendent of Schools, the Treasurer being cus- todian of the funds, keeping them in his own name. Friday night, after the investigators had failed to find but $6295 credited to this fund, Mayor Phe- lan visited Widber in the County Jail and ascertained that the money was intact, $4000 being deposited in the Hibernia Bank and $618 in the German Bank. Widber gave Phelan an order for these two deposits, and yesterday morning the Mayor recovered the money. Secretary Godchaux of the Board of Health is not so fortunate. He had $1137 belonging to the Board of Health deposited in the Treasurer’s vault un- der his own name, and Widber has made away with all of it. The ex- Treasurer, however, says he considers it a debt of honor and will make it good to Godchaux. The Board of Supervisors met again vesterday morning and elected Chris- tian Reis Treasurer. Mayor Phelan presided, and Supervisors Devany, Haskins, Sheehan, Dodge, Lackmann, Morton, Britt, Smith and Rivers were in attendance. The Mayor ordered a ballot on Reis and Martin, the two candidates, and it resulted, as on the preceding evening, six for Reis and three for Martin, Lackmann, Morton and Smith, the three Republican mem- bers, voting for Martin. Sheehan moved that a recess of fif- teen minutes be taken, but the Mayor suggested that another ballot be taken before recess. Before the vote Supervisor Lackmann made the following statement: “I find the members of the board are unwilling to admit the force of my ar- gument that a Republican should be elected to succeed a Republican. The result being then a foregone conclusion I do not feel that I ought to stand in the way of an election, and therefore having done my duty as a Republican, I will change my vote in favor of Mr. Reis.” The roll was then called and Lack- mann voted with the six Democrats, giving Reis the seven votes necessary to elect. Morton moved to make Reis’ election unanimous, which was done. Later in the day the new Treasurer took the oath of office and then watch- ed the count of the money in the vault. An agent of the same surety company that is on Widber's bond asked Mr. Reis to appoint his company as his bondsman. Mr. Reis promptly re- plied: “I will do so with great pleasure if Mr. Widber’'s bond is made good promptly.” Rels will not file his bond until Monday.
