To the Editor oj The Tress :
Sin: In answer to your correspondent, J. A. 11.,
tvlio desire? to know whether railroad companies are
or are not bound to make change, allow mo to say
that the quest ion has boon docldod by tho Supremo
Courts of Pennsylvania, Now Jersey, Now York,
Massachusetts, anil perhaps, of other States, that
tho conductors of oars are notbonnd to makochange.
Those decisions woromado in regard to steam oars,
of course, but as tho law simply relates to tho price
of faro, it is equally applicable to horse cars, as they
corno under the head of passenger railroad oars.
Tho iusltoo of those decisions is apparent. If con
ductors were bound to make change nil that a per
son would have to do to got a rldo for nothing would
bo to tender a legal note of suehjlargc denomination
that it would be Impossible to make tho change. .

To the Bailor of the Press:
Sir.: Allow on attentive obsorvor to recommend
the Board of Presidents of the passenger railway
companies to obtain power to liavo a small Mint
erected In eacli car,, by which tbo conductor could

To the Editor of The Press:
Siit: Lot tlio opponents of #lO racontriso on the
passenger railroads remember that every time they
wall; instead of rhling, they take the extra one cent
profit from six passengers who do ride. If enough
will boar tills in mind, soon wo shall have tko cor

To toe Editor of The Press:
Tho extortion practised by the city passenger
railroad .companies has become so general that fur
ther steps should be taken to break down tho mo
nopoly.
The exhibit or the amount of cash originally paid
for tho stock, and the selling price of the Board of
Brokers, ns published in The Press and Bulletin,
should r’ouso tho indignation of the people and pro
duce a concert of action.
1 will Im one of one hundred citizens to contribute
one dollar each towards printing largo placards, to.
ho placed on tho corners of tho streets, with words
somewhat like those:
u Don't ride in Ike passenger railway, cars till the
fares arc reduced and the monopoly is crushed."

response. The needed articles may be sent to 1307

-■ WASuisnTON, I). 0., Juno 11th, 1804.
Ill r?. - —: asks as to our necessities. Above
everything, we need, during these battle times,
■where several hundred men a day are added to the
field hospitals at the front, or sent on to Washing
ton to swell the army, nmy some thirty thousand, of
wounded men already here—bandages and oldlitien. I
fear the surplus stock of these in the households of the
country is almost exhausted; but will you make
every effort to get them, and send them by express!
Also, if you can get any made, surgical skirls ?
They are of cotton, with tho sleeves oponalltbe
way down, and prepared with tapes to tie over the
dressings of wounded arms.. The next most-needed
articles are handkerchiefs, towels, cation socks, nee
dle-books, with the usual assortment of sowing arti
cles, ring-cushions, games, lemons, and oranges , bag
rum, uml cologne, pickle s and canned tomatoes but
most of those wo can buy, and what yon have may,
therefore, be sent by your usual cheaper modes of
transportation. But bandages and old linen weean
not get for.money—perhaps you may got some for
love. Very respectfully and truly yours,
Alfaed H. Bloor.

General Conference of (lie Zion Mctho*
Ulat Church.
~ NINETEENTH DAT.
. The Conference met as usual, Superintendent Clinton
m the chair.
-DISPUTED'POINTS OF .DISCIPLINE,
The committee |on disputed points in the Discipline
reported that inasmuch as the Conference had adopted
“Palmer on Discipline,-” the necessity of their further
action was superseded, as in their opinion all contact
ing points m dispute are therein settled.
A running discussion elicited the fact that the manage
ment of. the Hook Concern during the last four years
has been very unsatisfactory. Nothing was developed
to place the responsibility on any particular person.
The business scorned to bo managed with alooseness and
an absence of system which would culminate in the ruin
of any enterprise. Plausible statements were made by
those who were connected with the affair, which, in the
judgment of the Conference, freed them from any sus
picion.:.
Young America,
Elder Marshall having apologized to the Conference
for the nuuner in whieh he acted in not coming to order
.cn Saturday, when called by the Chair, was, by a una
nimous vote, relieved'from censure. Adjourned.

organization. ■ Elders Schrnmou and Smith, A. M. E,,
S. T. Jones, Cole, and Lougen, A. M, E. Z., were ap
pointed a committee to select permanent officersof the
Convention... . .
Durlngthe absence of the committee, the Chair sug
gested that in view of the momentous object for which
the Convention had assembled, that the time could not
be more appropriately spent than in singing and prayer.
Jnese exercises.wore then entered into with spirit by
delegates from both Churches.
The following are the officers reported by the commit
tee which were elected by the house: President, Eight
Kev. Bishop 'VVayman, A.» M. E.; vice presidents, Rt.

A. M. : E. Z. , Stanford and Cain, A. M. E., were elected
secretaries.
Bishop Waymau addressed the Convention i in a speech
of much interest, on the subject of union of the two
Methodist Churches, which was attentivelv listened to;
He thought that, as the first official proposal came from
the A,. M, E; Church, that the Convention should hear
her plan of union. He called npon Elder Cain, who snb
mitted a basis, which was laid on the table. v. Jos.
Mason, of the M. E. Church, was introduced to the Co
nvention, and assured it that there were no better friends
oi.uie African Church and its people in this country
than the bishops and Conference of that Church.
Elder S. T. Jones, of A. M, £. Z. Church, submitted
the following as the basis of union to which the Zion
delegation have pledged their support:
Deeply convinced of the importance of Christian
union and fellowship, and of the retarding and perni
cious influences consequent upon

in America, with a sense of their responsibility to God
ns well as the grave and delicate responsibilities resting
upon them ns conservators of the dearest rights and in

whom they act, respectfully present .to. the Convention
the following articles as the basis of a permanent union
of. the respective connections represented in this body..

which the two bodies are now designated, and adopt a
new name or denominational title.
Second. V* e agree to the election of superintendents
for life, or during good behavior, without the imposi
tion ofhands. .
Third. We agree to give'-the'spiritual control of the
churches to the superintendents and conferences, leav
ing to the people the control of all temporal interests*
snbiect to quarteily examinations. .
• -Fourth. We agree that the rights of the people,
through a lay representation in the General Gonfe-
be forever maintained.
• Fifth e agree that the books of discipline in use La
> each body, at the sitting of the ratifying General Con
fereiicajjfsbe two connections, shall be submitted to a
commitfeeidif twelve members "of the General Confe
rence,. equally chosen from each party, and the hook re
vised and -agreed bn by said committee shall be the law

Sixth. We favor the following denominational title:
The United Africa* Methodist Episcopal Qucrch

Seventh, We agree tliat the result of the Convention

tion, and to and Annual Conferences of
the same, and if agreed to.bya majority of each the
next ensning regular General ‘-Conference, or an extra
ordinary session of the same, shill ratify tbe election of
the churches, and confirm the same, and the union shall
be final. -
The preamble was adopted unanimously, and the
Conference proceeded to discuss the second item of basis
for a union. .
After considerable debate the second proposition was
set aside. The third will be taken up this morning.

As was anticipated, the bids for the new loan,which
were opened yesterday by the Secretary of the Trea
sury, were very numerous. The telegraph informs us
that five hours had been exhausted inlhe consideration
of the offers. Only a portion of the BtrccesfuL bidders is
announced this morning; the rest will be given to
morrow. The result is quite gratifying, evfacing re
newed confidence in the financial masagemeht of the
Government.
There was no material change to notice in the stock
market yesterday, prices continuing about the same as
on the previous day. The first 6ale of American gold in
the regular stock board for many weeks was made yes
terday, when $2‘,»00 was disposed of at 197.. The pas*
sageof the gold bill in Congress did not appear to affect
the price of the commodity in the market., Experience
is proving that legislation has not that effect which we
all would wish to see, .especially with reference to the.
gold question. . The new law requires that gold trans
actions to be valid must be conducted at * 4 the ordinary
place of business” of the operators.: It would be a
matter of some difficulty to tell where the" “ ordinary
places.of business’ ’ of some of the Third-street brokers ,
are located. The ea*e with which the professional gold
gambler can evade this law is apparent. Thevalue of
; the law as a law is that It will, by branding gold gamb
ling with the stigma which ought to attach to It, break
up the business to a very treat extent. Government
stocks are sightly better, and are held firmly; City
sixes sell at 105 for the old, and 106 K for the new; Com
pany bonds were lightly dealt in; Camden and Amboy
sixes of ’B3 sell at 106>a;.Long Island bonds at 101;

Since Jan. Ist,
• The New York Pos£ of yesterday, says: .
G6ld opened at 196%, and after selling at 197%, closed
dull at 196%. Exchange is quiet at 210 for gold.
The loan market is more active, and a number of
loans have been called in to-day. In riou*eqisence of
the prevailing suspense there is little disposition on the
part of the leading institutions to make time loans. The
current rate is seven per cent., with a few transactions
on better terms.
The more prudent and conservative firms are strength-.
ening their position, in anticipation of the sharp strin
gent spasm Which it is supposed will attend the. pay
ments on account of the new loan.
The deposits at the Sub-Treasury amount this morning
to two and a half millions .of dollars. r
Tlie bids for the new loan averaged at IT, M. about 4
per cent, premium.
The stock market is dull, but the tendency of Quota
tions is upwards on several of the speculative stocks.
Before the first session gold was quoted at 196%@197%,
Erie at 312>«, Hudson River at 145%, Reading at 139%,
Michigan Southern at Central at T23K, Pitts
burg at 112, Toledo at 151, Rock Island at 115%, Quick
silver at 74.-
