Three Mala laaaes. Sir Rufus announced" that particular attention would be given to these three points: The Titanlc's speed after the warnings of Ice had been received; an Insufficient number of lifeboats for the persons car ried by the steamer; the construction of the water tight compartments, lie gave a detailed analysts of the num bers of saved and loat by classes and sexos. and indicated that he considered t.mt the dixportlonate number of first class passengers rescued should be a matter of Inquiry. - "One striking figure," he said, "la that all except five women of the first-class were saved or had an opportunity of being saved, some refusing to leave thetr hufbands. One fact that atanda out Is that a very large number or men of the first class were saved. It may be neces sary liter to analyse these figures more closely."

May S,-"The American people are too far advanced longer to be restricted by church rulea aa to w-hat their amusements shsll be. The rule piohiblting dancing, card playing, gambling and going to theaters, circuses and horse races therefore should be abol ished." This Is the gist of a report presented today to the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church todsy by the Board of Bishops. In recommending this radical change, the twenty-four active bishops stipulated that the church, however, should not be indifferent on these subjects, but that the people ahould be left to Judge for themselves what J right or wrong amusements, having before them only the injunction of John Wesley, which forbids "the taking of such diversions as can not be taken In the name of the Lord Jesus.' ne bishops declared the church reiter ated Its opposition to theater going and gambling, but tha rule In force since 1ST: could not fix a point between "the turt and the stock market." The bishops' report was delivered Bishop Earl Cranston of Washington, O. C, and It formed the second section of the episcopal address, the first half of which had been given the day before. Wesley's nan la Belter. "We would Joyfully acclaim the day when every Christian would abstain from the amusements which have been prohib Ited, but we cen't repress our conviction that Wesley dealt more wisely with the danger.

"In our absolute helplessness before this question we must continue to allow the World to suspect that the larger the stake and the more reckless of public wealth the gain, the less the victim's crime, provided the winner pays tithea to religion or benevolence. tAlfcE Or" BLACK MAS COMF.H IP 'saaslsaloa A p Rotated te Ceaalder ' Keeda of Near I kerrkea.

When Mis- slsslppl conference waa reached !ing. Began to happen. " This la a colored con- terence. Rev. William W. Lucas (col ored) of that conference Introduced resolution asking that a commission be appointed to look-into the needs and note of progress of the 3M.O90 colored members of the Methodist Episcopal church, and to formulate some plan for their better episcopal supervision. This comm eslon to report to the general conference a week from today. Instantly everyone knew that the cause of the black man was be fore the conference. The Rev. Mr. Lucss spoke eloquently for his resolution aa did Rev. I. Garland Penn (colored) and others. The main contention In support of the resolution waa that with white bishops to oversee colored work, the bishop does not come Into direct con tact with the real life of the negro. It Is urged that a colored, man who can share the humble home of hla black brother and who will tide In the "Jim crow" cnarh with Mm. la needed. The white bishop dislikes to mingle freely with colored people and even if he were entirely willing he would be severely criticised by the southern white people. Bishop Thomas' B Neery la the 'only Methodist bishop now stationed in the black - belt. His episcopal residence !s New Orleans, but he has been there ven- little because of the effect of the climate on hia wife's health. Mrs. Neely died in ew orleana a few months ago. ( There la undoubtedly ' strong aaitatlan for a colored bishop and aa tbe resolu tion Introduced by Dr. Lucas prevailed It la thought by many that the negro Methodists are about to win their battle of years. It waa noticeaMe haf th colored leaders advocating tbe measure were men or no mean order and some of them would rank .with the beet eralors In the conference. Bishop Scott (colored). missionary bishop to Africa, was osoted i loamy aa saying that unless the colored people were granted a bishop of their own race here In America be favored their withdrawal from the Methodist Episcopal church and tbe uniting of ail ranches of colored Methodism Into one church with their own leaders.
