ST. LOU 1 8, May . (Special Telegram.
The action of the General Federation of
Women'! Cluba thla morning" In changing
the manner of election haa net seemed to
, dampen the determination of the Nebraska
delegation to eecure a member on the
. Board of lrectora, The . ohange does not
affect the manner of nomination and Mrs.
B. M. atoutenborougn will be the Ne-
breaks candidate.
There is now little aerious talk of any
other candidate than Mra. Sarah Piatt
Decker of Denver for the presidency," but
this very absence of opposition strengthen!
the belief that It is but the calm that
'precedes a storm, and that a strong woman
will be presented from the floor at the last
moment. Some believe that thla woman
'will be Mrs. Robert Burdette, present first
vice president. Apparently she has dropped
out of the race altogether, In fact, unless
Mrs. Phillip Moore of St. Louis declines
to run for the first rice presidency Mrs.
Burdette will not even be pushed for a
;re-election to that offloe. If Mrs. Moore
refuses to take It she will doubtless be
; elected second vice president, as the pres
ent Inoumbent of Detroit, though eligible
to re-election", has long been in the govern
ing body and . may feel that new women
should bo put In. i . '
. The Illinois delegatlan will maka a des
perato effort to elect. Mra. John Sherman
of Chicago recording secretary, they haV'
Jng given up the vice presidency. Mrs. Coad
of South Dakota, the present incumbent. Is
eligible to re-election, but when at this
morning's delegation meeting Mrs. Wille of
Chicago suggested mat Mrs. onerman saould
;be supported only on the condition that
Mrs. Coad refused to run again, Mrs. Hen
rotln of Illinois objected, insisting that
opposition was fair and the privilege of
any delegation.
; Miss Louise B. Poppenbetm of South
Carolina, corresponding secretary, alone
seema to be without opposition. Miss Pop-
penhelm'a ability, together with a charm'
ing personality, have made her generally
popular. .
Owing to the arduous duties of the treas.
urer's office, there Is little talk regarding
a successor to Mrs. Van Vonthen of Iowa,
whose term baa expired.
Aside from the larger reception, Mrs. W.
W. Klser and Mra. H. H. Salisbury, fop.
merly of Omaha, will entertain the No
breaks women tomorrow, Mrs. Klser giving
a reception and Mrs. Salisbury a luncheon.
Politicians Are Bnsy.
Too first order of business was the con
sideration of the report of the committee
en nominations and elections, submitted by
Mra. Conda Hamlin.
Owing to the election of president that
the adoption of changes in the rules wou'd
entail, the majority of the delegates were
early on hand and the electioneering that
was temporarily interrupted yesterday was
resumed with vigor. Those Interested in
the candidacies of several women whose
Barnes are mentioned prominently in con
nection with the presidency make claims
of pledges, but refuse to maka known the
strength of their respective candidates for
poutlcal reasons,
A substitute for the reoom me nd at Ion of
the committee on methods of election pro
viding that the ballot boxes be used In
stead of sending Individual ballots to the
platform to be counted by tha tailors there
caused a storm of objection. Tha substi
tute provided for an oral vote by states,
the ballot of each delegation being an
nounced from tha floor by tha state fed
eration presidents.
Mrs. Williams of Minnesota declared that
the oral method of voting destroys the se
crecy of the ballot
J Thla view was supported by many dele
gates, all of whom said that it would bo
embarrassing to announce tbelr choice for
any ofllce before the assembled convention.
The substitute for the amendment was
defeated, and the amendment providing for
the use of ballot boxes was unanimously
carried. It was decided to use the new

- FREMONT. Neb., May (Special.)
Captain Henry of the signal corps adopted
a summary method of compelling attend
ance at drill last evening, and consequently
there was a little excitement around Main
street. Almost half the company wars ab
sent at roll call and a squad in charge of
a sergeant was sent out after the delin
quents. Eighteen men were brought back
to too armory under arrest, and as a pen
alty were obliged to pack and unpack tents
for a time. One lieutenant, who was the
only commissioned officer absent, was re
ported out riding with a young woman and
was not found. His case will oome up
later and his absence is likely to cost him
his shoulder straps. .

ST. LOUIS, May 20. The second session
of the World'a Press Parliament was held
today In Festival hall, and when the con
vention was called to order every seat in
ths spacious auditorium was occupied by
delegates, representing the greatest assem
blage of Journalists from all parts of the
world ever before congregated. The open
ing session last night included many friends
of delegates and visitors of honor, but to
day the convention was attended almost
solely by the accredited delegates.
The erection of the great pipe organ Id
Festival hall interfered with the convention
and a request was made that the work on
the organ be suspended until the session
was over. This request, however, was not
complied with snd the hammering and
pounding proceeded. This caused all but a
few delegates to leave the hall and the pro
gram was curtailed by half. John Fergu
son of Ceylon, tbe first speaker, told of the
resources of Ceylon, the progress of news
paper work there and the evolution of the
dally paper from the weekly.
William Hill of tbe Dispatch, London,
spoke of the tendency of the modern news
paper to cumbersome proportions and ad
vocated the trimming of the else and a
more careful selection of the news matter
and other contents of the metropolitan
daily." Mr. Hill protested against ths flar
ing headlines of some of the modern dallies,
both English and American, and deprecated
what he termed the "typographical demon
strations" built possibly, he said, upon ths
Idea that "he who runs may read." '
"The Province of the Magazine" was the
subject of an address by Dr. Shailer Matth
ews of Chicago. Dr. Matthews said that
the development of literary culture was ths
distinct province of the magazine.
Prominent Joaraallsts Talk. '
The third session was held in the Hall of
Congresses tonight. While the number
present ' was not so large as last night.
Interest in the addresses that were made
by famous Journalists and in tbe pro
ceedings was not lacking.
Tha discussions tonight embraced a va
riety of topics concerning the press . and
the foreign delegates were' particularly
interested in the views regarding the pub
lishing of newspapers as presented by
the delegates to the parliament from this
country and before the gathering con
eludes its sessions action will probably be
taken looking to the permanent organ!
satlon ' of an International association, as
was suggested and recommended by Sir
Hugh GUIsean-Reld of London, the per
manent presiding officer of the parlia
ment.
Dr. H. von Kupffer of the Xiokal Anielger,
Berlin, presided at tonight's session. In
calling tha meeting to order he. expressed
the hope that the parliament would help
to further the friendly Intercourse of na
tions and materially help .in keeping the
peace of the world. He introduced Joseph
R. Fisher of the Northern Whig, Belfast,
Ireland, who took tor his subject "Some
Dangers of ths Modern Newspaper."
Yellow Joaraallsia.
Mr. Fisher said that the bulk of and
circulation of a newspaper do not neces
sarily show its influence and that the suc
cess of many papers depends on a sen
sation. In this respect he said that the
modern press in a number of instanoes has
strayed from Its ideals.
He discussed ths liberty of the press,
which, ha said, had been urged tor years
and pointed out the great danger when
this freedom is abused. Ths newspaper,
the speaker said, is becoming almost ths
sole reading of a great number of people
of the world, and It controls and guides
snd educates many of them.
B. N. Hoch editor of the Record,
Marlon, Kan., followed, with an address
on "The Country Newspaper." Mr. Hoob
denounced "yellow Journalism' and said
that happily there were Just enough news
papers of this class to demonstrate the
value of the genuine and spoke of the
country editor's efforts tpward mould
ing public sentiment
John Temple Graves of the News, At
lanta, Go., discussed the great power of
the press and objected to edltots holding
public office.
After the discussion the question of mak
ing ths world's press parliament perma
nent, came up in the following resolution:
This session of the world's press parlia
ment recommends to the committee on
recommendations that it Is desirable In the
event of universal Journalism to oonsldsr
what steps. If any, should ba taken with
a view to giving permanency In some form
to the parliament of tbe press either by
affiliation through the National Editorial
association with the International Press
congress or by the establishment and sepa
rate and Independent confederation in
friendly allianoe with the congress.
Delegates Aaron Watson and N. M. Hill
of London were among those who spoke in
opposition to the resolution. L M. Bodken,
editor of the Freeman's Journal. Dublin,
argued In support of It, aa did Mr. Oravee
of Atlanta. It waa unanimously agreed to
refer the question to ths committee on
resolutions and the session adjourned until
tomorrow morning.

no election. Dr. T. R. Day received the
highest number of ballots. 111 out of a total
of 706 cast 71 being necessary to a choice.
This showed a loss of thirty-nine votes,
having polled 850 in tbe ninth. Election
of the eighth bishop is now thought to lie
between Dr. Day and Dr. R. J. Cooke of
Chattanooga, with the chances favoring the
Utter.
Bishop WHliam Bart
Dr. Burt received 5M votes, which was
considerably over a two-thirds majority of
the votes cast on the fifth ballot.

Plads Wo.' Heretics.
The charges of heresy that have agitated
certain circles in the conference since Its
ccnvenlng have finally been disposed of in
the committee on education. A subcommit
tee having in charge the consideration ot
the memorials and other evidence on this
subject reported back to the main commit
tee Its recommendation, which, after some
discussion, has been adopted. Ths' report

not been sustained, saya in part

committee satisfactory statements aa to the

The report then counsels the bishops to

bishops. The report makes the following
recommendations

Third. We recommend the election of one

NEWARK, N. J.. May sWThe ease of
B. H. Harrlman and Wlnslow S. Pierce
against the Northern Securities company
and the Northern Pedflo railway, being a
petition for an Injunction to prevent the
carrying out of the plan tor the distribu
tion of railroad stocks held by the Securi
ties company, waa called before United
States Judge Bradford today.
The suit is similar to ons heretofore dis
missed by the Cntted States circuit Justices
at St. Paul, the Northern Pacific, however,
having been made a codefendant in the
present action. Neither Mr. Harrlman nor
President Hill of the Northern Securities
company was present when the case waa
called. Attorney Thatcher was present
representing the Oregon Short line bond
holders, to protest against the suit on ths
ground that ths trustees of that line, who
had been named In the petition, had no
right to Interfere with the plan for distri
bution of Northern Securities assets, the
bondholders Insisting that the plan pro
posed was perfectly Just and equitable.
Argument was about to begin when At
torney Thatcher petitioned the court to be
heard. He said he did not want to ask to
Intervene at this stage of the proceedings

' "tlrant HIV cl,nt' 1,9 ,mp,jr w"nted
the court to hear hla views.
Mr. Llndabury held that the request
should not be granted unless the petitioner
waa willing to go on the record
Judge Bradford said that while the ac
tion might be a little Irregular, still he
would grant the request, hla object being
aolety to get at all the facta In the case.
Mr. Thatcher said it would take about
forty minutes to present his vlewa and the
court aatd he would be heard later.
Francis V. Llndabury opened for the
plaintiff. He argued that the Northern
Securities company was never properly In
possession of the Northern Psclflc and
Great Northern stocks, because it obtained
them la a manner which the courts had de
clared to be Illegal.
Mr. Llndabury aald tha Orecron Phort Una
had acquired 178.000,000 of tha $155,000,000 of
atock of the Northern Pacific, or a ma
Jorlty of the whole. But of thla atock only
137,000,000 was common, while ths full Issue
of common stock was $80,000,000. Under tha
charter of the Northern Pacific, it was
later learned, the common stockholders In
the meantime notified Mr. Harrlman and the
Oregon Short Line company that they pro
posed to retire the preferred stv
Isaue common In Its place, but that no
holder of tha preferred stock would be al
lowed to subscribe for the now Issue of
common stock. At the same time Morgan
and HI II announced that they were about
to organise the Northern Securities com
pany and that Harrlman and tha Oregon
Short fine people could put their stock of
the Northern Pacific Into the new corpora
tion on the same basis aa Morgan and HR!
were putting theirs. Mr. Llndabury said
that hla clients were thus forced into the
combination. He declared that they had
nothing to do with the organisation ef It
and they claimed that now they have a
right to their atock deposited.
