AKLAND, April 2.—Cropping out of the discussion to-day during the afterncon session of the gen- cral conference of the Seventh Day Adventists was ‘the strong feeling that has existed ir the denomina- over the action of the trustees of greet Battle Creek, Mich., sani- arium, an institution of worldwide note, cing a mortgage debt upon its en- mous property to cover a bond issue which the mc raised to r bulld the institution after a great fire a was y year or more 2go. | hat there has been widespread dis- | satisfuction in the church throughou: the United States because of that financial move was made manifest th{s afternoon when delegates requested thal those who had handled the deal for the sanitarium make explanations. It appeared that much of the criticism had been born of a complete misunderstanding and that Dr. John H. Kellogg, the head of the sani- | tarfum, had come in for a large share of the u rable comment within the church. Upon invitation of the conference, | Judge Jesse Arthur of Battle Creek, the | general conference attorney, gave at | length a history of the bond issue, and the preceding tranmkactions., He declared that Dr. Kellogg was in no way con- | cerned; that all of the business was | transacted by himself and the repre sentatives of the Central Trust Compar Tiinols, and that the issue was legal | and for the best interests of the sani- | tarium. Judge Arthur sald: | | “After the fire that destroyed the sani- tarium, the question was how i» get | means to rebuild. At the time of the fire the sanitarium owed $230,000 or $210,- | due principally to members of the | nth Day Adventists' denomination. | was impossibie to get more money on the personal obligations of the trustees. | ne only feasible way open was to create a mortgage debt to secure bonds to raise | the money. “After much investigation T reported to the board that the plan was a legal one, and the Central Trust Company at Chicago was selected as trustee. The value of the property, after the build- | ings were completed was to exceed | $500,000. R s Death of Major Loring. Leonard Young Loring, late major of United States a'my medical depart- ment, died in this city on Wednesduy the age of fifty years. Major Lorix leaves a widow, Mrs. Sophle Chaut oring, and daughter, Mrs. Adelaide Wright, and one son, Lieutenant 8. Loring, of the Twent) United States army. Major Loring was native of St. Louis, Mo. The funeral s vice will be held at the undertaking e tablishment of Cralg, Cochran & Co., 4: Golden Gate avenue, at 2 o'clock this ai- ternoon, after which the cortege will pro- ceed to the Presidio, where the remain will be met by military escort. Interment will be in the National Cemetery. No Appointments Made. Acting Customs Collector Hamliton said vesterday that he would not make any aps pointment of laborers in the Custom- house undér the.new arrangement making e position permanent.

The total cost of the build- ings and grounds value is between $600,000 and_$700,000. “With relation to Dr. Kellogg, who has been accused of having ulterior designs in some of the provisions of the trust deed, I desire to emphasize that he does not 1ow know, in my opinion, what are the provisions of the deed, because I do not belleve he scrutinized it with that close attention necessary to remember in de- tail. The deed was drawn by myseilf and was amended after numerous tions by the trust company's attorney: Unless it had been a trans- action, legal and in good faith, the trust company would not have touched it.” After he had finished his speech, Judge Arthur replied to a categorical bombard- ment from Elder Parsons, who explained that he desired only to insure a full flood of light on questions in doubt. A resolution from H. W. Cottrell to re- move the general conference offices from Battle Creek to a point on the Atlantic seaboard favorable to the work provoked much inquiry. whether that means New York or Lon- don for the conference headquarters. Elder Cottrell was not sure on that point, and the conference laid the matter over until the committee shall have completed its report on that subject. Elder W. T. Knox was the presiding of- ficer to-day. At the morning session a re- was read urging systematefc cam- paigns of evangelizing in foreign fields, asking appropriation of funds from local conference treasuries and inviting a tith- ing fund of 10 cents a week from mem- bers of the church to forward the work. Reports were presented touching the government of the denominational insti- tutions and recommending that they be placed, under certain conditions, in con- trol of a conference trust association. This will be a special order of business for to-morrow morning’s session. Elder D. E. Lindsay of Ohio preached to-ntght on the theme, “From Paradise Lost to Paradise Regained. Klondikers Make Merry. There was a happy gathering of raturn- ed Klondikers and members of both sexes who never traveled to the far north at the “first annual stampede and sour ugh social” at 116 Turk street last cvening. The affair was given by Dell Clark and G. W, Meyer, who styled them- E es “Umaluctucs.” There was danc- ing and lots of refreshments. The rooms were prettily decorhted for the occasion. The reception committee consisted of H. E. Pratt, Judge J. H. Tamm, E. 0. Lind- Lloom, Gordon Hall, Willlam Chenoweth, J. 8. Copley, Samuel Dannenbaum, Dr. F. Galehouse, Captain O. Hansen, J.

Mr. Flournoy was the final winner. Miss Mabel Hogg's double tandem driv- ing was especially fine.
