home, upon further investigation, which
will be made this morning, may clear up
the mystery surrounding the finding of
the unindentified body in the river at
Drewry's Bluff yesterday morning. The
description of the missing Mr. Allen,
given at his home, last night, tallies in
so many particulars with that of the
body found in the. river that there seems
a strong likelihood of its being the miss?
ing boy. The body could not be seen last
night, to make certain that the lingers
missing were from the right hand, upon
which detail every man who viewed it,
including the undertaker, were in doubt
other differences in the descriptions may
easily be accounted for by the fact that
the body has been distorted and
emaciated bv the water.
HOW LONG IX WATER?
The fact that the decomposed condition
of the body seems to indicate that it had
?>?.en in the river at least two weeks is
by some considered sufficient reason to
put; at an end {in idea that it is lhat of
y?ung Allen, but others say this cannot
be ? elied upon.
'Squire L, W. Cheatham, of Manches
moining floating in the river at Drewry's
Bluff by Mr. Herman Simmons, a fisher?
men, and at once dragged ashore.
"Squire L. W. Cheatham .of Manches?
ter, was notified of the finding, and sum?
moning a jury went to the scene, where
an inquest was heid, which failed in
clearing up the mystery. The jury said
the unknown man came to his death by
drowning. ??
The body was brought to ?Manchester
yesterday afternoon and turned over to
Mr. L- A. Bower., funeral airector, who
prepared it for burial.
During the evening it was viewed by
several persons, but no one was able to
identify it. The body will be held at the
undertaking rooms until this afternoon,
and if still unidentified, will then be bur?
ied by the county authorities.
EFFECTS OF A BLOW.
'Squire Cheatam said yesterday even?
ing that he would have the body viewed
to-day by a physician, as he was not cer?
tain that a discoloration on the right
side of the forehead was not the effects
of a blow.
The opinion of the physician may lead
to furthf-r investigation by the jury.
There were reports in Manchester late
last night that the body was that of a
man who had been for ? time stopping
at the home of Mr. Ira Jones at Drew?
ry's Bluff, ?and that before that time he
bad been a familiar figuro around
McDonougli's bar on Seventeenth
Street in Richmond, but those ru?
mors had not reached the eats
of those conducting the inquest, nor
could they he verified at either place.
ELECTRIC LAUNCHES.
Council Committee Decides Against
Naphtha Launches at Reservoir Lake.
The Grounds and Buildings Committee
last night ordered the gravelling of the
circular drive of a mile around the lake
to be constructed in Shields" bottom, near
the Xew Reservoir.
Superintendent Thompson^of the Fire
Alarm ofiice, told the committee why the
City Hall clocks were not running last
night.
On account of the high bids made the
committee decided to have the City En?
gineer do the hauling and gravelling at
the paiks by day labor and not by con?
tract.
The contract for .granolithic curb and
guttering was given to W. D. Sutherland,
and that for flat granolithic work to A.
W. MjcClay.
The committee decided not to allow
naphtha launches on the Xew Reservoir
Lake, as dangerous, but to grant a per?
mit for one or more electric launches,
with tho provision that tho charge shall
not exceed 10 cents.
The subcommittee on cleaning the City
Hall asked for more time in which to re?
port. Thc Council resolution on .ne un?

no action taken.

said the whites had secured a majority
of 3,900. It might just as easily have
been, he said, 30.000 or 00,000. They sim?
ply get such a majority as was necessary.
He referred to the outrages In the
Philippines and then said he had heard
only of the application of the "sand
cure" in the South. He thought the
sand cure as described was mild.
"When." he declared, "we get ready
to put a nigger's face in the sand, we put
his body there, too."
HORROR OVER EVERY HOUSEHOLD.
He insisted that the Republican con?
tention was that the negroes of the
South were fitted to govern in this
country, but that the Filipinos wore not
fitted to govern themselves in the Phil?
ippines. In the United States, he main?
tained, a serious problem confronted the
Government?the negro problem?and we
might better try to solve that than to
hunt for trouble in the Philippines.
"Throughout the South," he said,
"there is a horror hanging over every
household for this awful fear of rapine,
and yet you turn your back upon it and
ma?ch to the East, where you murder
and butcher and torture the poor Fili?
pinos. And you are doing all th;s in the
name of Christianity and humanity and
liberty. I can see the hyprocrlcy oozing
out of you all over. (Laughter.)
"As Confederates." the Senator de?
clared, "we can't think It right to go
into the Philippines and desolate the
islands with fire and sword."
Adverting to the South further along,
Mr. Tillman said: "We will not sabinlt
to negro domination, and the sooner you
understand that the better.
"This discussion of the Southern race
question should cease: your taunting u?,
on the race question should cease.
Lynchings will continue as long as those
fiends asault our wives and daughters."
While Mr. Tillman was speaking many
of the Democratic Senators left the
chamber, his audience on the floor being
largely on the Republican side.
A WIXD FROM KANSAS.
Mr. Burton, of Kansas, vigorously ar?
raigned Mr. Tillman for his utterances.
He asserted that the Senator who could
defend slavery and government by the
shotgun could not be expected. to think
well of Senators who were trying to
carry good government to the Filipinos.
He was astonished that a Senator in one
breath should make an appeal for unsul?
lied government In the Philippines and in
the next boast of crimes almost unpa?
ralleled in history.
Mr. Burton followed with a warm de?
fense of tho-government's policy in tne
Philippines, and became involved in a
heated colloquy with Mr. Rawlins, of
Utah, because he had denounced some
of Mr. Rawlins' statements as false. He
paid a brilliant, tribute to General Fun?
ston as one of the great heroes of ?.ie
army.
Mr. McLa.urin, of Mississippi, quoted
figures concerning Mississippi elections, in
response to statements made by Mr. Mc?
Comas. He said that he thought that
the time was past for the waving of the
"bloody shirt" or for the making of in?
vidious remarks concerning States of the
Union.
After the Philippine bill was laid aside
for the day, a bill authorizing an appro?
priation of $G.7G>,0??"? for the construction
of a lighthouse and fog .signal at Dia?
mond Shoals, on the coast of Xorth Caro?
lina, at Cape Hatteras, was called up and
discussed briefly. It was laid over, how
over, until it could have further expla?

in support of the bill, and Mr.-Rhea, of
Arkansas, while favoring the admission
of the three Territories, gave notice of an
ahiendment he would offer to consolidate
Oklahoma and Indian Territory and ad?
mit them as a single State.
Before the statehood bill was taken
up the House adopted the conference re?
port upon the Indian appropriation bill.
A vigorous, but unsuccessful, fight was
made upon the Senate amendment to open
up the Uintah Indian reservation in Utah.
Mr. Little,, of Arkansas, declared ?..e

ment confirmed existing leases, many of

RADICAL WRONG
IN METHODISM
Episcopal Address Comments on
Number of Admissions.
QUADRENNIAL CONFERENCE
First Session Opened Yesterday in
Dalias, Texas-Office of Dea?
coness Will Be Applied
for This Year.
(By Associated Press.-)
DALLAS. TEXAS. May T.-The first ses?
sion of the fourteenth quadrennial con?
ference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, was called to order by
Bishop Wilson, of Baltimore at JJ
o'clock this morning in tne old an?to
rium of the Fair Grounds, ?.stlnguished
churchmen and laymen were present from
all parts of the country. All the bishops
with the exception of Bishop Keener, of
Xew Orleans, and Bishop Fitzgerald, of
Memphis, are in attendance.
After the singing of a hymn. Bishop
Hargrove, of Xashville. prayea for "uni?
ty, moderation and conservatism" in the
deliberations of the conference, and hear?
ty "Amens!" punctuated his words.
By unanimous vote Rev. John Tigert,
of Xashville, was elected secretary of the
conference. He named for his assistants
Rev. A. F, AA'atkins. Of the Mississippi
Conference, and J. M. Baccus, of the
Xorthwest Conference. Governor Sayers
was presented by Bishop AA'ilson to make
the address of welcome, and the dele?
gates rose to welcome him. He devoted
most of his speech to the history of Meth?
odism.
Bishop C. P. Galloway, of Jackson.
Miss., replied to the address of welcome.
The Conference sent its sympathy to
Bishop Keener on account of his infirmi?
ty, and to Bishop Fitzgerald on account
of the death of his daughter, "Mrs. Banks,
a few days ago. and to Dr. B. M. Palmer,
of New Orleans.
The rules of the last General Conference
were adopted and the appointment of a
committee of five to revise the rules was
authorized.
A motion to fix a committee of six on
credentials was carried.
EPISCOPAL ADDRESS.
The Episcopal address, signed by the
College of Bishops, was read by Bishop
AV. XV. Duncan, of Spartanburg. S. C.
Tue address was a lengthy one. Two hours
were consumed in its reading. It recites
that only 3S.0S5 additions to the church
have been made since the last conference
and says something is radically wrong.
The bishops also appeal for a better
equipped ministry. Politics in the church
publications ?3 strongly condemned. The
bishops say the ortice of deaconess will
be applied for and they entreat the con?
ference to act wisely and well.
An earnest plea was made for the bet?
ter support of superannuated preachers
and widows and orphans of deceased
preachers, and tha.t a fund of S10O.00O be
secured for theso purposes. The work
of the mission boards, church extension,
Epworth League and Sunday-schools and
the literature of the church was comment?
ed upon. Large space was devoted to
the schools and colleges of the church.
It was shown that the publishing house
during the past four years transacted a
business of Sl.lCW.iVO. or an Increase of
51S6.0HO. The publishing house "war
claims'* was reviewed, showing that the
church was free from any blame in. he
matter. A hope was expressed that this
conference would finally settle this moot?
ed question.
Tha election of two bishops was asked
for.
Immediately after the reading of the
address Bishop Candler, of Georgia,
read a letter from Senator A. O. Bacon
and A. S. Clay, saying the resolution
passed by the Senate in explicit terms ex?
onerates the church from all blame;
that there is no obligation on the part
of the church to pay the money to the
Government or to make further offer
to do so."
The conference adjourned until 9
o'clock to-morrow.
ALUMNI CELEBRATE.

of Virginia.
The annual meeting of the Alumni So?
ciety of the Medical College of Virginia,
held last night at the college, was thc
feature and success of the first day of

There were fully 150 members of the
