(leneral Conference today Dr. M. P. Chapman, of Mi-suri. introduced a preamble and resolution in relation to the Confe ieration of the Methodist l lpiscopal Church South and the Method ist Episcopal Churcli Nonh. The pre amble sets forth in substance that the two churches have a common history and preach the same truths: thereore, that this General Conference f hall elect a committee of seven, four cf whom shall be clerical and three lay delegates, . who shall meet a like committee from tho Northern Methodist Church in ' looking to the reunion of the two churches. The resolution further sets ; forth that it is a sin and folly for two Methodist churches to occupy the same territory. Dr. Chapman, in his earnest advocaey of this resolution, said that in his State the sin and folly of the matter had been i observed: that he has seen in a small . town of 400 or 500 inhabitants, two ; Methodist churches raieing altar against altar a waste of men and money and a waBte of the forces of our Christianity. ' The brethren in the South, ho argued. I have not this thing to contend with, i and know nothing of the clash which is j met with in the "West, and know nothing , of the facts in relation to the segrega- ' linn nf Motlinrlism wViinh ia coiner on ' under the present state of affairs. Con tinuing. Dr. Chapman said we who have seen this state of things are tired of this waste of men and money. Where the Northern Methodist Church is in the as cendancy we are dying by inches, and where we are in thd ascendancy that church is dying by inches. Dr. "Whitehead, of Virginia, was in favor of referring tho matter to the Committee on Fraternal Correspond ence. The question w as discussed at i some lengm, ana nnany was rererrea to a special committee, to be composed of one from each Annual Cogference. Another important matfewooking in the same direction, was reference to an appropriate committee the preparation of a common hymnal that may be used bv all different bodies of Methodism in the country. The Committee on Itineracy, to which was referred the memorial from Douis-1 ville and Denver Conferences, that pro- I vision be made for the appointment of Evangelists, recommended nonconcur rence. Dr. Adams, of Ga.. thought that Sai Jones and other such men should have nominal appointments. fir. Messick, of Louisville, strongly supported the report of the committe and was in favor of allowing the system of evangelism to stand as it is. He very forcibly contended that the Church did not want specialists on the subject: that j every Methodist preacher is equally qualified to save souls. To the name of Methodism he, protested against such an innovation, and when he concluded there was a hearty "amen." Dr. Neely, of Texas, said that these I evangelists, as far as he knew, were run , ning on the plan of religion made easy. In the name of the Methodist Church : and of our Church of God, he hoped j that the measure would fail. Dr. Winfield, of Arkansas, said that if the memorial is adopted every gum log in Methodism can and will be an evangelist in the next five years. "Do 1 you know what a gum log is?" the Dr. ; asked: "it is one you can't do anything ' with. When I was iu Europe with Bishop Wilson we were shown a certain kind of tree called feminine oak. You can't split it or do anything with it. It is just like a woman when she will she l will, and you can't do anything with - her. There is but one Sam Jones in the w orld, and there will never be but one. ! and evcrv little fellow that tries to be irv little fellow that tries to be like Sam Jones will fail. Y'ou can roake-i no more on that line. He is by himself. Y ou can have but one, and if you at tempt to duplicate him you will surely fail. " Laughter. lie has turned Chicago upside down, and any man who has the courage to attack Chicago cannot be duplicated. Ho is being heard in Baltimore. He is the rnan of the century. We don't want any evangelists among Southern ; Methodists. We have already the ! grandest machinery in the world, j Brethren, I'll tell you what is the mat- j ter. You go along lifeless and dead, lie j kindle the fire in your own churches,! for it is time Methodist ministers were i looking this matter in the face. ! Mr. McFerran spoke at length. He i did not wish Sam Jones to be an evan-, i rwcWct nf fioi-tT-rria alrtno' til nnt wish to , . . , fi, i,,,n. ,. . eoiintrv. ti ,ti. i uei.iLi of Ky . was op; c .--.! to olht r eratic missionaries, and several ; deiegates took the same ground, , P , a. a After a lengthy and interesting dis cussion of the matter the substitute was : rejected, and the report of the commit tee was adopted by an almost unani mous vote. ! Richmond, Va., May 11. In the M. E. i Conference today a number of reports from standing committees were made. Among them was one making it obliga-tj-irv unon BishODS to consult with their presiding el ders in the appointment ot preachers, w inch w as laid over un . r the rules. Rev. William Briggs, ul Canada, fra ternal delegate from the M. E. church iu the Dominion, was introduced to the Conference. A p.iper bearing upon the subject of mi-si "ms was presented by Drs. Kelly and Bennett. Dr. 1 A.
