The Rev. Edward ,T. Bond, pastor of
the Grace Church, led in prayer after
the business session had been cnllcd to

Ending Up Woili
In order to check a flood of last -min
ute business before the conference and
to sift out matters of Importnneo that
should have attention, the Hev. John
O. Wilson, superintendent of the North
west district, proposed a committee of
Ave to pass on all business.
The ltcv. Kdwnrd S. NInde, First
Church, Germantown. read the report
of the conference standing committee on
the American lllble Society. Tho cur
rent budget of the society, he said, calls
for $1,227,000
The Hev W K P. Unas, pastor of
the conference churth. was extended the
thanks of tbe conference for his com
pilation of church history printed In last
j ear's journal. The history includes a
record of charges scived bj all members
of the conference
The ministers are expected to clear
awaj all routine business matters at
today s session, leaving tne announce
ment of appointments and miscellaneous
matters onl for tomorrow's final ses
sion, v
An attempt will be made, it lsT)c
llevcd, to have the conference staged
for the third time in the Wharton
Memorial Church next year. This was
the first time that a conference has
ever been held twice in the same church,
and Its pastor, the Iter. W. E. V.
Haas, is desirous of repeating the feat.
Amendment Voted Down
A move to limit the size of delega
tions to the quadrennial general con
ference was voted down today bj a vote
of 101 to 02 after spirited dlscusslou.
The proposed amendment to the consti
tution, had been submitted by tho last
general conference for a referendum vote
of all conferences.
Instead of tho present proviso of one
delegate for every fourteen members of
a conference, the amendment called for
one delegate for every forty-five mem
bers. The Iter. Charles M. llosvvell nrgucd
that tho church could not afford to de
crease the sli'e of delegations If It want
ed n democratic general conference. The
Hev. Hobcrt 0. Wells, conference sec
retary, also spoke against the amend
ment.
The Hev. Thompson W. McKinney.
who alone championed the suggested
change, declared tlui.t general confer
ences now are ho large that It Is diffi
cult to dispose o'f routine business. A
smaller genernl conference would be
more efficient, he said.
Dr. Iloswell. Who has been conducting
conference pentecostal services for
twentj-four jeers, was aroused b.v n
resolution offered by tho Hev. W. A.
Ferguson, who suggested the appoint
ment of a committee to map out a pro
gram for the next annual conference.
Dr. Iloswell nske.i If the proposed
committee would have power to Inter
fere with Ills' pentecostal services. The
conference members, he declared, need
ed the spiritual uplift the services pro
vlded.
Dr. Ferguson replied the ministers
j needed "intellectual food tor thought,
iiiiu men. iniun-i milium uu on llie mvrr-
nonn program of the conference. He
wkhdrcw his resolution, however, be
cause of Dr. Ilosw ell's objections.
Iicctures for Conference
A substitute resolution wns offered bv
the Hev. Gladstone Holm. It stipu
lated that a committee shall bo named
to arrange for n maximum of three lec
tures for tho next conference and that
the lectures arc not to interfere with
the pentecostal services. This resolu
tion was adopted.
In addition to the business session
this morning, today's program of the
conference includes the dallv pentecostal
service conducted by the Hev. C. M.
Iloswell, this afternoon, nnd the anni
versary meeting of the board of Sunday
schools in the conference church this
evening, nt which Dr. V. D, Dovard
will be the principal speaker.
SPROUL DETERMINED
ON BROOKS LA W STAND
Governor Sprout today told a dele
gation of Methodist clergymen he would
not change his position In regard to
amending the Ilrooks law. He met n
committee which visited nt his office,
f12 Chestnut street, with n view to
influencing htm to throw his support to
the Martin bill now before the Legisla
ture. .
The Rev. Dr. John Watchnrn, the
Hev. Dr. C. M. Iloswell. tho Hev. Dr.
William Ponlck and the Hev. Dr. S. M.
Thompson were on the committee, Dt.
Watchorn was the spokesman. After
!,A rnnfpreticn hn MAlrl
"The Governor's position is that he
would prefer some ciucient measure,
preferably tho amendment of the Brooks
law In such manner as to keep control
of beveragcH now coming from the
breweries.
"Our objection to the Brooks law Is
psychological. The old system regu
lated the liquor traffic and the liquor
traffic Ms now outlawed nnd we don't
want anything to do with the laws that
regulated it In the old regime. Wc are

Introducing
Brown Cab Company
on the European System
The owners of the American Taxicab and Service Company
have determined to give to the people of Philadelphia a real taxi
cab service operated on the European system under the name of
the BROWN CAB COMPANY. This service begins TODAY.
Effective IMMEDIATELY, we have made a 25 JREDUCTION
IN RATES the lowest rate ever offered for adequate service in
this city.
WATCH FOR THE BROWN CAB. You
" will know it by its color. It is painted brown
so that it may be distinguished at a distance.
Twenty-six modern, new, clean BROWN cabs
went into commission this morning and will bo
OPERATED UNDER THE EUROPEAN SYSTEM.
rVERY cab carries a SEALED METER.
Overcharge is out of the question. Every
cab is driven by a reliable bonded chauffeur who
SHARES IN THE NET PROFITS OF THE COM
PANY TO THE EXTENT OF 20. He thus has
every reason to be an accommodating, courteous
business man. Our whole plan is to give you a
cab system that will be real that will bo honest,
comfortable and efficient and promptly fill your
taxi needs to the last detail. ,
THE BROWN cabs may be PICKED UP
1 ON THE STREET OR BY TELEPHONE.
There will be NO CHARCE ACCOUNTS in eon
nection with BROWN CAB service. They will
call ANY PLACE IN THE CITY.
BROWN cabs arc made by the Yellow
Cab Manufacturing Co. of Chicago. They are
light, roomy, comfortable and as clean as the
proverbial whistle. Daily inspection insures a
sanitary cab. ALL BROWN cabs have every
possible device for safety. Drivers are careful
and will cause you no unpleasant sensations in
crowded thoroughfares or take risks on railroad
crossings or other danger point. We don't pro
pose to put any driver on the seat of a BROWN
CAB who is not thoroughly imbued with tho
spirit of his company.
FRANKLY, the BROWN CAB is an ex-
periment and you are to b the judge. You
can, of course, choose between the BROWN CAB
and tho luxurious limousine service we hitherto
operated. IT IS STRICTLY UP TO YOU
WHETHER WE SUCCEED OR NOT. If you will
respond to the best and cheapest taxi service
Philadelphia has ever known. WE WILL PbT
ALL THE BROWN CABS INTO THIS CITY
THAT YOU CAN USE.
VjTE cannot at this low rate afford
" charge accounts, uniformed starters or '"
unnecessary additions to overhead costs. '"hi,;
we can afford is to give you SERVICE with all
that it should rightfully imply. Wo won't keop
you vaiting or guessing. If we hava no BROWN
cab promptly available for you we'll say so.
