In the German .Methodist church on

thirty-second annual eastern confer
ence of the German Methodist Kpisoo
pal church began, Hlshop John M. Wnl
dcn, D. D of Cincinnati, O,, presiding.
There was a large attendance of minis
ters of the denomination, the list print
ed In yesterday's Tribune being sub
stantially correct. After the opening
of tlie conference Hlshop Wulden ad
dressed the ministers urging them to
linpiess upon their congregations the
necessity of taking n deeper Interest In
the ritualist service. The practice of
families attending service together and
partaking of the Lord's supper was
highly commended. At the conclusion
of the bishop's remarks the Lord's sup
per was observed and the roll of the
convent Ion was then prepared.
Hev. Paul Ouuettnender, of New
York city, who has for twenty-live
years been general seeielary of the
conference declined a re-election and
Itev. W. Glesregan, of Hrooklyn, X. Y.,
was chosen to succeed hlnl. A hearly
vote of thanks was tendered to the re
tiring secretary. Hev. II. II. Heck, of
Philadelphia, and Itev. Jacob Suter, of
New Haven, Conn., Were chosen as
sistants to the general secretary and
I lev. W. A. Stark, of Hoston, and Hev.

These committees will present their le
Hoits mi Saturday or Monday. At the
suggestion of Hev. D. Hllbeck, of this
city, it was decided to hold a closed
session at which candidates for ndinis
sloii as well as those on probation will
be examined.
ItECKIVING 1U3POHTR.
All of the rnstors present made re
ports of the affairs of their congrega
tion for tlie yeur and these were sup
plemented by a report from Hev. J. C.
Denulnger, of Hrooklyn, N. Y., presid
ing elder. Ills report was of a very fa
vorable character. Presiding Elder
Hev. ,T. J. Messmer, of Newark, N. ,T.,
will present his report tills morning.
During the morning session the fol
lowing clergymen were introduced to
the members of tlie conference: Itev.
.1. (1. Kekmau. presiding elder of the

There was no general session of the
conference 111 the afternoon but all of
the committees appointed in the morn
ing held meetings. A Pentecostal ser
vice was condiu ted by Hlshop "Walden
from 4 until 5 o'clock and at 7..J0 the
conference sermon was delivered by
Hev. II. Vallberg, of Buffalo, N. Y. To
Itev. Philip Ilnendiges, of this city, was
assigned the duty of delivering the con
ference sermon and Kev. Mr. Vollberg
was named as his substitute. Inas
much as the conference Is being held in
Mr. HaendlEes' church he waived the
privilege of delivering the conference
sermon in favor of his substitute. It
was delivered last night.
AT TODAY'S SESSION.
At this morning's session of tlie 0011
feience a vote on constitutional imes
tlons will be taken. The most import
ant to the general public probably is
the one which deals with the right of
women to represent churches at the
general conference. This question came
up at the last general conference and
was relerred to the several lesser con
ferences for consideration and action.
No constitutional change can be made
until three-fourths of the conferences
favor It and it must also receive a two
thirds vote In the general conference.
Another question referred from the
general conference for consideration is
whether or not there shall be as many
of the laity as of ministers nt the gen
eral conference. According to tlie rules
as they exist now only two lay dele
gates are allowed from each confennee
and one minister for every forty-live
in the conference.
Presiding Elder J. J. Mssiuer, of
New York, has served six years as pre
siding eldr of Ntw York district, and
cannot be re-ekcted. His successor
will be chosen nt this conference.

Before Judue Archbald In common
ideas court, Paul Domlnico yesterday
began his third effort to secure from
the Iron City Mutual Fire Insurance
company, of Pittsburg, $7n0 Insurance
money on n house of his which burned
down In 1SU3.
The house wns situated near the Con
tinental and was purchased by Doml
nico from Mrs. Mary Tyrell in lS'Jl for
$7r,0. He furnished It and had the
place Insured for $700 with tlie defend
ant company, which was represented by
Michael Rellly, of Slate hill. A year
after the policy was Issued the house
was destroyed by lire and Domlnico
mnde demand for his Insurance.
Whether It wax that the company's
adjusters surmised that Domlnico had
moved out his furniture and burned
down his house, which with the lot cost
$7!i0, In order to collect the $7'VJ Insur
ance thai was on It Is not known, but
at all events the company refused pay
ment, lulling refuge behind a clause in
the policy which says the Insurance
shall be null If there Is a stove-pipe
projecting through the floors, sides or
loof of il house.
There was a stove-nipe projecting
through tlie 1:0 r of ihe Domlnico hous?,
tlie plalnlllf urimltF, "but It is contended
that the company's agent saw It there
when he was innkln out the policy
and further thai the lire wus not caused
by this stove-pipe.
CASE TRIED TWICE.
The case was tried twice before,
bitrators cave Mr. Domlnico a
Ar-ver-
diet 'for the full amount. On the
ap
peal u jury rendered Judgment for $70.
for the plaintiff. Tlie company secured
a new trial on some technical Ilnw In
the tiinl process and now It Is up for Its
third trial. C. II. Super appears for the
plaintiff and M. G. Martin for the de
fense.
Tlie case of Mary Johnson and others
against Dr. C. J. Wilbur and others wns
given to the Jury at 11 o'clock yesterday
morning. Shortly after dinner n ver
dict of SH.111 for the plaintiff was re
turned. A jury was called In the ancient and
revered case of Johif Conniy against
the city of So-nnton and It will be
called for trial this morning. Conmy
cluinis $',"00 damages, alleging that
the city injured him to that extent by
violation of a contract.
Conmy was awarded the contract for
grading Robinson street, when that
tlioroughfaie was opened In 1SS7. He
was to rfcolve L'O cents a yard for cut
ting and lining and as the contract
read "for tearing down or removing all
houses and wooden obstructions on
said street, tlie contractor shall have
the use of the material so torn down
and moved."
AVEUE SIX HOUSES.
Therewereslx houses wholly or partly
on the line of the street. Conniy sup
posed he wus to get them as part of
his compensation and purchased a lot
uijuiiiug uu me street on which to
move such of tlie buildings as were
worth preserving. In order, however,
lo lessen the damages that the city
would have to pay, the city authorities
gave the owners of the condemned
land permission to move their houses.
This they took advantage of and as a
consequence Mr. Conmy was deprived
of their use and benefit.
The most valuable house of the lot,
possibly the only one of any extenslvn
value, was a large frame tenement
owned by W. II. llazlett. One corner
of this building only Jutted over the
street line and even had the contractor
been allowed to have his Interpretation
of the contract he would have been
entitled merely to so much of the
building as projected on the street. Mr.
llazlett moved the building aroun- so
that the projecting corner cleared the
street and made a tenantable building
out of It, from which he derives a nice
revenue.
The city evidently felt that Mr. Con
my wns not faiily treated us it offered
to settle with him for $1,000. He
scorned the offer and went Into court.
The case will no doubt be watched with
much interest. O'Brien & Kelly rep
resent Mr. Conmy and City Solicitor
Torrey will look after the city's side
of It.

AMUSEMENTS.
Saturday night one of Ilnyl's most
Mictessful comedlPS "A Hlaek Sheep"
will be produced at the Academy of
Music with Otis Harlan In tlie role of
"Hot Stuff." Mr. Harlan has done
many a clever thing In his life, but
this Is the best of them nil. Even Mr.
lloyt Is said to have out-done himself
In the formation of the plot, the con
ception of the lines and the display of
humor, and tho numerous details that
go to make up one of lloyt's best farc
es. Mr. lloyt has also Included a num
ber of handsome glrlB In the enst, ns
in his Invariable custom. Mr. lloyt has
ncently engaged Miss Jeanette St.
Henry, n strikingly handsuine woman
with a superb voice, to play tho part
df "The Queen of Burlesque."
The roming of Mllle. Illicit and 'her
excellent company to the Academy of
Music Tuesday evening, March SO, will
be of unusual Interest at this time,
from the fact that she will give tg
play-goers a new play which has
proven of undoubted success In the
eastern cities where presented. They
say lo see Illicit In her new play "Nell
Owynne" Is a genuine Heat. Her com
edy Is said to be far beyond expecta
tion, identified ns she hns ever been
with the more serious and dlgnllled
roles. Strong situations and climaxes
and witty dialogue carry the story of
the orange girl's triumphs through four
acts: and the last with Its pathos gives
Rhea an omiortunlly for her genius as
an emotional actress. The pluy Is ex
ceptionally well staged and magnifi
cently costumed.
HOME FROM CALIFORNIA.

.lermvn Return from a Tour.
County Treasurer C. H. Schadt and
,1. J. .lermyn are home from their west
ern tour. They started six weeks ago
and went direct to California, where
they spent most of their tluje. They
separated In Sacramento, Mr. Jermyn
going to lower California to look after
some business Interests and Mr. Schadt
taking a run through the northwest
to absorb some free sllverlsni for use
In 1f0o. They met again at Denver and
made the homeward journey together.
Mr. Schadt happened to be In Carson
City the day of tlie light and thinking
possibly that he might run across some
Scrantoiilun in tlie crowd at the race
track went out and stood near the en
trance scanning the people who went
in. Not seeing any one he knew he be
came very lonesome and just for the
sake of getting somebody to talk to he
bought a $10 ticket, went In and hunt
ing up Hob Fltzslmmons'made himself
acquainted by means of a letter of in
troduction from Colonel Fltzslmmons.
They had a pleasant chat and so
pleased wtis Mr. Schadt with Hobert
that he hung around the annex until
the mill was over in order to have an
other tete-a-tete with his new-found
friend.
Mr. Schadt did not take much Inter

vinced that the papers were wrong in
saying that Fltzslmmons in the sixth
round was down on une knee for seven

HOLE FORTY FEET DEEP.
Discovered Yesterday .Homing on tho
Properly ol'C. !'. .lad win.
On the properly of C. P. Jiulwin at
717 Adams avenue a great, deep hole
was discovered yesterday morning. It
Is on the rear of the lot close to Lee
court and Is about six feet square and
forty feel deep.
At first it was supposed to be a mine
cave, but as there Is no disturbance
of the surface elsewhere In the vicin
ity and as the hole is much deeper
than could possibly be after an ordi
nary mine cave It Is supposed that the
covering of a cistern long ago aban
doned gave way, leaving this gaping
hole which 1ms caused no little excite
ment in the vicinity.
