IOWA METHODISTS' PROBLEM

WIFE OF REV. HENNESS FORCES THE ISSUE
She la at Conference, Often In Tears,
and the Matter Has Jleen Or
dereel Considered mtm Spe
cial Chnreh Trial.
KEOKUK, la., Sept. 20. The Iowa confer
ence of the Methodist church was aroused
today by the sudden snd unexpected pres
entation of the case of Rev. P. J. Henness,
one of its members now living in South
Dakota. Mr. Hennees separated from his
wife during the last year and refuses to
state the reason.' His wife Is here at the
conference, often In tears, and her hus
band will not speak to her. Mr. Henness
tried to have the case ventilated on the
floor of the conference, but Bishop Ham
ilton referred it to a trial by a committee
of eleven members, with two Judge advo
cates and two attorneys for Henness. Ths
charges before the trial committee, which
la alttlng with closed doors,' are that under
ths conditions Heqnees Is not a suitable
minister to be sent out as a pastor. No
queatlon of sexual morality Is involved.
The verdict will settle the policy of the
ofaurcb on a new question. Henness and
his attorneys Insisted that a correspondent
of the press be admitted to the sessions of
ths trial committee, but this was refused
'and executive aessiona were ordered. Ths
trial makes a sensation in ths conference
and Is expected to continue until Monday.
Tonight a second bombshell exploded
when friends of Henness began to call at
tention to the fact that his case is parallel
with that of ons of the oldest bishops of
the church. They are talking that if this
conference decides refusal to live with his
wife Is unclerlcal conduct, then the Iowa
conference must memorialize- the general
conference of the church to take action on
the case of that bishop. It is claimed that
today'a proceedings will have results as
far-reaching as Methodism.

dents of the state may be received.

establishment of the institution be rein
vested In good interest-bearing securities,

ZANGWILL ISJflUCH PLEASED
Ho Considers Hay's Recent Note a
Noble and Historic Document,
Setting; Grand Precedent.
LONDON, Sept. 20. Secretary Hay's note
to ths powers which signed ths Berlin
treaty of 1878, on the subject of Rouma-
nla'a treatment of the Jews, bss aroused
widespread Interest In the Jewish commu-
ntry of London. Israel Zangwlll, the au
thor, who Is an authority among his co-re-
llgionlsts and a ceaseless worker for the
improvement of the position of the poorer
among them, said to a representative of
the Associated Press:
"Secretary Hay's nots regarding the Rou
manian violation of ths treaty of Berlin
Is a noble, blstorio document, setting a
precedent In political righteousness. It is
a worthy pendant to President Roosevelt's
setting The Hague International arbitra
tion court in motion. Both tend to the
creation of a non-existent branch of Jus
ticeinternational ethics ths absence of
which makes our civilisation a farce, since
all evil Is sanctioned It only enough people
commit It.
"America cannot be seriously Injured by
Jewish Immigration and Its action was un
doubtedly chivalrous. Yet. as ths main
refuge aad bops of ths homeless Jew, it
has a technical caas for Interference, even
though not represented at ths Berlin con
gress. Tbs world Is all Inter-connected
with any action of ons power that tends
to incommode another. It Is practically
an act of aggression. Mors especially
should this principle bs pushed to Its ut
most limits when monstrous Injustice Is
being perpetrated and an unoffending pop
ulation Is being dons to death. It the Eu
ropean powers do not Interfere to enforce
ths treaty of Berlin I do not see how they
can escape the deduction that violation of
treaties is a casus belli only when some
commercial interest is to bs exploited."

"I dropped balls aa I went along. It shows
what an army could do with an airship

is seven and a miles an hour.
"My present ship Is a one-msn affair, but

"Tliere was a serious Ore on board Fram,
started from sparks, and spread to the Arc
tic canoes, which wers smeared with parat
flne for their protection. Ths rigging snd
masts caught firs and ths total destruction
of the vessel was threatened, but we suc
ceeded in mastering the names.
"In August, 19C0, we traversed Jones'
sound and Morgan strait and took up win
ter quarters at 76.8 north and 89 west. The
region was .rich In reindeers and polar
wolves, of which ws brought back living

The wrong kind of food fills mors graves

it is pleasant, too. The Rev. O. M. Lodge

YOUNG PROMISES SUICIDE
Farewell Nets Bsosivtd from Supposed
New Yeri Murderer.
TELLS DETECTIVES SEARCH IS VAIN
Declare that He Waa Soon to Kill
Himself Officers Half Inclined
to Accept .Note na
Gennlne,
NEW YORK. Sept. 20. Captain Tltua ot
the detective bureau hns Juet received
through the malls a short note supposed to
have been wrltpn by Hooper Young, sus
pected of the murder of Mrs. Joseph Pul
itzer, It waa enclosed In a small envelope,
such ae Is used in hotels for sending cards
to the rooms of guests. Inside the envelope
was a small abeet of paper on which was
written:
"Search in vain. I have killed myself.
"H. YOUNO."
After a comparison with the known haud
writing and signature of the missing man.
Captain Titus, while not openly declaring
that It was genuine, said that It did not
look like the work of a crank and that
the aignature was written by a man evi
dently used to writing it.
An autopsy performed on the-body of Mrs.
Joseph Pulitzer, who was mysteriously
murdered in a Fifty-eighth street flat and
whose body was found In the Morris canal,
showed that her death was caused primarily
by a knife wound In the abdomen and not
by chloral. Several blows were struck on
the head before death, but the skull waa
not fractured and there waa no signs of
cerebral bemmorhage.
A police dragnet has been thrown out for
William Hooper Young, grandson of the
great Mormon leader, Brlgham Young, who
Is suspected ot the killing.
Among the books found in Young's room
In the flat was the cover ot a small memo
randum, on the front of which was stamped
In gilded letters, "Practical Reference."
On the Inside were a number of notes
headed "Blood Atonement," and followed
by biblical references. Including an excerpt
from the Book of Corinthians, reading:
"To deliver such an one unto aatan for ths
destruction of the flesh, that the spirit
may survive in the day of the Lord Jesus."
Detectives have traced Young to Brook
lyn, where he went on Thursday morning
to bid a friend goodby. To this friend he
said he was going to the Rocky mountains.
A trunk shipped to Chicago through the
Wells-Fargo express was consigned to C.
S. Filing. The police do not believe it
contained anything other than clothing be
longing, poeslbly, to Mrs. Pulitzer, as very
little of the murdered woman's apparel has
been found.
John W. Young, father of the man sus
pected of the murder, who Is now In Paris,
has communicated with friends In this city,
informing them that he will return to
New York for the purpose of defending
his son. Mr. Young has also cabled Instruc
tions to his most Intimate friend to .employ
counsel for his son.
Chicago Detective Gets Trnnk.
CHICAGO, Sept. 20. What is believed to
be convincing evidence that William
Hooper Young is the murderer of Mrs. An
nie Pulitzer, whose body was found in the
Morris canal, near Jersey City, last Thurs
day, was discovered hers today by the po
lice In a trunk that had been shipped to
Chicago from New York. It was con
signed to C. S. Filing and marked "hold

ters addressed to William Hooper Young.
