Mayor | Schmitz attended the meeting and it | matter was settled. Commissioners Dingee, Lloyd, Alt- | mann and Sullivan were present and [the first named presided in the absence | | of President Spreckels. The question | of a route for the horseless machines | , was first taken up at the suggestion of the Mayor,. who said that they had | become a menace to life and limb on | the thoroughtare he described. | Schmitz told of the thousands of peo- | ple who alight and board cars at the | Haight and Hayes street entrances of | the park and of the dangers incurred | by the speed machines. It was finally | agreed that the automobiles must en- | | ter the park at Oak street and imme- | | diately cross over to the south drive within the inclosure. For the protec- tion of pedestrians in the grounds a | rustic bridge will be constructed which will afford them a crossing | other than that on the driveway. It | was suggested to grade an automobile | speedway in the district south of the | park for a distance of two miles. The automobile clubs will be asked to bear }x portion of this expense. Commissioner Lloyd called attention |to the disgraceful condition of the beach. He stated that debris of all | description was cast about on the sand | and that pleasure for people who de- light in loitering about in the vicinity | of the waves was fast becoming im- | possible. On a motion it was ordéred | that venders and salesmen of all de- scriptions be ordered to move from the beach and that the police prevent | them from returning. After this de- | cision it was moved that Superintend- | ent McLaren, who will soon depart for a trip to Scotland and European coun- tries, be voted the sum of $1000 with which to defray his expenses in visit- |ing and coliecting data from other parks in pursuance to an order of the board. Several valuable donations were accepted, and, in compliance with the request of the Memorial day commit- teee, Superintendent McLaren was em- | powered to domate all the flowers he | could spare to be used in decorating | the graves of soldiers. Joseph Cleary | was appointed temporary superintend- ent while McLaren is away from the city. Some discussion arose as to whether his salary should be increased | | when he enters upon this temporary | duty, but the point was not settled. —_———— RECONCILIATION MADE SY BY DIVORCE LAW Interiocutory Decree Can Be Set Aside on Petition of Plaintiff or Defendant. The true meaning of the law pro- viding for the interlocutory decree of divorce is gradually becoming known to those whose matrimonial alliances | have proved unhappy and who have | carried their troubles into court. This ils evidenced by the fact that within | the last ten days two couples that | have been through the divorce mill | and temporarily separated by an in- terlocutory decree have reappeared in court with an application to set the decree aside “because they have be- come reconeiled.” Soren and Bessie Neilsen were the first divorced couple to ask the court to set aside the decree of divorce that kept them apart. Yesterday Lily K. Thomas had the decree she obtained |from Henry L. Thomas set aside by Judge Sloss because, as she stated in |an affidavit, “Thomas had asked her to return to him and she believed his promise to treat her as a wife should be accepted.” Stivan Ivancovich, who is the de- fer.dant in a suit for divorce brought by Delfina Ivancovich, in an anawer to her suit filed yesterday, deniea that he ever treated her cruelly.. In cross-complaint he asks for a decrse of divorce because of her conduct with a “gentleman friend.” Florence M. Grover was graited a |divorce from Thomas J. Grover for | desertion. Maude Pegot (nee Jeffers) wante | her marriage to Emile L. Pegot un- nulled. She says that when she mac- i ried him at Sacramento in May, 1502, shé was but little more than 16 years of age and did not ask the consent of her parents. —_———— Gives an Exhibition of Birds.

BALLOTING FOR THE BISHOPS ENLIVENS CONFERENCE WORK Report of the Committee on Education Finally Disposes of the Charges of Heresy That Have|p. 5 v, Seriously Agitated Certain of the Delegates L — l LOS ANGELES, May 20.—When the general conference adjourned at 6 o'clock this evening seven of ‘the eight Bishops to be elected had been chosen, and the eleventh ballot, taken just be- fore adjournment, probably has result- ed in the election of the eighth. The list of Bishops thus far chosen is as follows: Dr. Joseph F. Berry of Chicago, Dr. Henry F. Spellmeyer of Newark, N. J. Dr. Willilam F. McDowell of New York: Dr. James W. Bashford of Delaware, Ohio; Dr. William Burt of Rome, Italy; Dr. Luther B. Wilson of Baltimore and Dr. Thomas B. Neely of Philadelphia. Dr. Willlam Burt was elected on the fifth ballot, taken last night, the result of which was announced in this morn- ing’s Cail. Dr. Wilson was chosen on the sixth ballot, which was announced before rec to-day. The seventh and eighth ballots resulted in no election, but on the ninth Dr. Neely was elect- ed by 486 votes out of the 700 cast, 467 being necessary to a choice. The tenth ballot was taken just before adjourn- ment this evening and resulted in no election. Dr. J. R. Day recefved the highest number of ballots, 311 out of a total of 706 cast, 471 being necessary to a choice. This showed a Day loss of 39 votes, he having polled 350 in the ninth. The election of the eighth PBishop is now thought to lie between Dr. Day and Dr. R. J. Cooke of Chattanooga, with the chances favoring the latter. The situation is so complicated to- night that no one would be greatly surprised to see both candidates defeat- ed and some clergyman not yet named chosen in their stead. Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, the colored can- didate for episcopal honors, twice an- nounced. to-day his withdrawal from the race, and on the tenth ballot his strength had dropped to sixty votes. Bishop Luther B. Wilson js a gradu- ate of Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa., and is at present presiding elder at Baltimore, Md. He is the youngest man of the seven men elected to the bishopric at this conference. His age is 42 years. OLDEST OF THE MEN ELECTED. Bishop Thomas B. Neely is the oldest of the men elected and has been a can- didate for the office at several confer- ences. For the past four years he has been editor of Sunday-school publica- tions at Philadelphia and secretary of | the Sabbath School Union and Tract Soclety. He Is a vigorous debater and an authority on parliamentary law. The episcopacy committee recom- mended in its special report to the con- ference this morning the election of four Missionary Bishops, as follows: | One additional for Africa, two addi- tional for South Asia and one for Japan and Korea, the latter a new episcopal district. The election of these four of- ficers will be begun immediately after the election of the eighth general su- perintendent. The itinerancy committee appointed Monday reported late this afternoon on the proposal to restore the four-year time limit for pastorates. A majority and a minority report were submitted. The former opposed the change, and a brigk and determined effort was made to force it through to adoption without debate. - Those favoring the minority report succeeded in staving off the vote on the majority report after: thg ma- jority leaders had sugceeded. in tabling the minority report, which recommend- ed the restoration of the time limit. The disturbing charges of heresy that have agitated certain circles in the conference since its opening have been finally disposed of in the committee on education. A sub-committee having in charge the consideration of the memo- rials and other evidence on this subject reported back to -the main committee its recommendation, which after some discussién was adopted. The report, which finds that the charges of heresy have not been sustained, says in part: NO PROOF OF HERESY. We are persuaded that there is not suffi- cient_foundation for the allegations that cei- tain of our theological schools are disioyal to the doctrinal standards of the church. None of the memorials recejved contain any specific charges, and there have come to the commit- tee satfsfactory statements as to the doctrinal soundness of the teachings in'some of these institutions in the report of numerous visitors appointed by the annual conferences. The report then counsels the Board of Bishops to exercise great care in the confirmation of the professors of theo- logicai .schools of thg church, to the end that none but those who.are thor- oughly in accord with the doctrinal standards be chogen.

Tem- peratures have been too cool to allow of free distribution of spring and sum- mer goods at retail, and they likewise retard germination and growth of crops, though permitting good progress in seeding in varfous sections of the country. In jobbing circles the feeling is that the spring trade is past and gone, and efforts are now concentrated on fall business, reports as to which are fairly good, though not equal to a year ago. Some faint evidences of ,‘m. provement ‘are to be noted, particu- larly in the shoe and leather industry, and in wool at Western primary mar- kets, but against this are to be cited further weakfess in iron. rather more quietness in lumber and talk of further curtailment in common mill produc- tion. The industrial situation is rather | quieter, but the most serious strike of the year, that of the masters and pilots of lake vessels, continues, with no pzos- pect of settlement. Thie has practically killed the trapsportation on the lakes, and coal, ore, limber and grain trades exhibit the effect of the almost total toppage of the activity. Rallway earn- recessions from last year. At eastern markets wholesale trade in dry goods is of moderate proportions, though symptoms of improvement are not entirely absent. Rather more Is fractional advance is reported. Per- haps the most pronounced weakness | shown by any one product is that| noted in iron. The other metals are all rather weak, copper being lower both dull and heavy at a slight decline.

In Canada failures for the week num- | ber 11, against 13 last week and 10 a | year ago. | R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review oll trade to-morrow will say: | Reports of increased trade are re-| ceived from a few favored points, but | the nation as a whole has not improved | in commercial position during the pas(" week, in so far as current distribution of merchandise or manufacturing ac- | tivity is concerned. Prospects for the future have improved somewhat, how- ever, on account of the progress in ag- | riculture. Unless the crops suffer an | unusual setback hereafter it should be a good year for the farmers and | all other industries will feel the stim- | ulus. Leading branches of manufac- tures are extremely quiet, the re-| cent slight gain in iron and steel ha ing disappeared, and transporting in- terests are not equal to last year’s rec- ords, rallway earnings thus far avail- | able for May showing a decrease of 6.8 per cent. Hides of late continue in good de- mand, branded steers and cows show- ing the most strength. Larger receipts of foreign dry hides have somewhat de- pressed the market. Failures this week number 236 in the United States, against 191 last year, and 19 in Canada, compared with 14 a year ago. —— e Californians Going to St. Louis.
