The main pobit of Interest at the confer
ence Is the trial of Blakemore, the sus
pended pastor of the Tecumseh church. The
charges that are being pressed against him
are twenty-one In number and are very
severe. Among them are that while pastor
of the Methodist Episcopal church at Clay
Center, Kan., he was guilty of using pro
fane language with a great deal of fluency;
that he placed his arm around a member
of his congregation while at Tecumseh and
kissed her; that he told another member
that she looked too sweet for any use; that
he used tobacco In large quantities. The
balance of the charges are on the same
lines, hut more severe. The committee was
In session until 11 oYloek last night, taking
I the evidence of the star witness, who came
In yesterday afternoon. She waa so hyster
ical that she could not give much weighty
evidence. The prosecution closed Its testi
mony last night and the defense started
this morning. Six or seven people came In
this afternoon from Tecumseh to testify
for Blakemore and the committee will hold
a late session tonight and try to finish the
case. The feeling In the conference Is
about evenly divided for and against Blake
more. but In an Interview this evening Mr.
Blakemore stated that the prosecution had
not proved a single one of the chargea
filed against him and that the testimony In
troduced by them showed that the charges
were filed by people who had a personal
dislike for him. lie refused to glvs any
Idea of what the testimony was. who gavs
It or what effect it seemed to have on the
members of the committee. A verdict Is

CROP REPORTS ARE ENCOURAGING
Heavy Movement of Wheat Causes
Freight Blockades at Several
Points Increase In Rail
way Earnings.
NEW YORK. Sept. 22. R. O. Dun
Co.'s weekly review of trade tomorrow will
say:
Current trade shows a distinct gain In
comparison with the same time last year;
crop reports are reassuring and evidences
of continued activity are noted In almos'
every department of Industry under a
wholesome growth, without threatening
danger of reckless Inflation of prices, is a
commercial condition greatly to be desired
and the elements are recorded In the ma
jority of dispatches. Fall trade Is now
well under way, especially encouraging re
mits tielng achieved In dry goods, milli
nery, footwear and all lines of wearing ap
parel, wlille mercantile prints are unusually
prompt for the season. There Is a good
consumption of groceries and staple arti
cles of food, and In furniture, crockery and
numeroua lines the distribution Is vigorous.
Manufacturing plants In the leading In
dustries are receiving large orders, a heavy
tonnage of Iron anil steel business being
placed and machinery houses making very
cheerful reports; footwear shops have
ample business in sight. Textile mills are
busy, although new contracts come Vr
ward more slowly; flour mills and nw
mills have enlarged production and the
fuel markets reflect the stimulus of active
factories. A little damage was done! by
floods in the southwest, but weather con
ditions sre favorable on the whole. As
grain comes to market more freely there Is
difficulty In averting freight blockades and
railway earnings thus far available for
September exceed last year's by 5 2 per
cent. Foreign commerce at this port for
last week showed a gain of $S32.8s In Im
ports, but a loss of $4,ot8,163 In exports.
Failures this week numbered 2ot In the
I'nlted States, against 225 last year, and In

larly timber and hardware, reflect un
precedented activity for this season of the
year. There 'is more doing in the retail
trade, though heavy rains and floods oper
ated to restrict operations west Hmi north
west. The absence of frost Is still Uie
favorable feature In the crop situation,
favoring as It does the almost total ex
emption of corn from damage. The begin
ning of the heavy spring wheat movement
In the northwest Is reflected In better retail
trade and collections, and the like rrnoil
conies from portions of the south, not af
fected by yellow fever quarantines, owing
to the corn crop beginning to move. Taken
as a whole, collections have Improved,
money Is easy, though shipments to the
country still continue large. Railway ton
nage offering Is very heay; it is noted that
enough cars to move coal to the lake
cannot be obtained In the Pittsburg dis
trict. Ijibor is well employed and addi
tional reports of a search y of help comes
from widely separated points.
