eral Conference board of claimants,
by Mre. D. Willis James, of New
Tork. Oty The announcement
caused a demonstration.
Never before in the history of
Methodism had such a large amount
been left by an individual to the
church,
Announcement was also made to
day that William Jennings Bryan,
former Secretary of State, had ac
cepted the invitation extended by the
general conference and would lec
ture hefore that body on May 22, the
anuniversary of the Church Temper
ance Society.
Among some of the memorials in
troduced today was one ealling upon
the elerzy to abstain from the use of
tobacco.
That Methodism should make a
clear statement in the campaign
against the drug habit and the social
evil and should follow the same with
active work to eliminate both, was
pronosed in a resolution offered at the
general conference todav by A. W.
Harrie, president of the Northwestern
University, Bvanston, I, and former
member of the Chicago Vice Com
mission. }
President ‘farris said that the
Methodist Episcopal Church was the
piloneer in the work in temperance,
but that the State has taken a much
raore advanced position in the fight
on the drug evil, He referred to the
national law aguinst the sale of drugs
and spoke of the illicit sales that are
made in all parts of the United
States. The progress that Chicago
has made in the handling of the soclal
evil was also touched on by Mr, Har

Plots and Counterplots, Money-!
‘ making and Merrymaking, |
’ Are Revealed. )
! The following articie. written by|
an eminent diplomatist, gives an in
teresting sidelight on the activity u(|
Russian agents in New York City.
The most important commission
which has been sent to this country
to make purchases for, or represent,
the Russian Government, wak one|
composed of about seventy persons,
which arrived in New York last fall,
under the leadership of Colonel Ko
lontav,
Other commissions, committees and
individual bureaucrats had arrived
before. Other titled and decorated
bureaucrats, officers, clergymen,
clerks, stenographers, official spies
and private informers of both uexes'
continue still to arrive,
Some have returned to Russia, oth
ers will prorably never risk return
ing to that country, ,
Russian officialism In miniature
with its attendant atmosphwre of
bribery, corruption, plotting, counter
plotting, espionage, counter-espion
age, money-making, merrymaking,!
lovemaking, balls, banquets and
brawls has been transplanted to New
York.
Position of Russian Spy.
The position of an agent of the
Czar's Quvernment on Broadway, on
the ocean or elsewhere, is an unen
viable one. The trusted (?) agent
is not less to be envied who watches
this first one, for he, too, is watched
by a third man—or woman-—in the
Czar's service,
The Russian peasant pays the bills,
and as a reward acquires the right
to exist untll Czarism demands his:
life,
On the steamer -which brought M.l
Boruch, a young Russian aristocrat,
to New York a few months ago, were
two other Russlans.
They were Messrs. Kirilov and
Smetanin, Moscow merchants who
had been sent to New York to buy
medical supplies for the Russian Gov
ernment,
This was in spite of the fact that
they knew nothing about drugs, an
in spite of the fact there are tons
and tons of medical supplies lying
hidden in mountains of shoes, canned
goods and hardware at Archangel
They were not acquainted with M
Boruch, and during the fourteen
davs they were fellow-passengers
with him they sought in vain to make
his acquaintance. Falling in this,
they endeavored, through the medium
of the other passengers, to learn
something of M. Boruch's mission to
America
He evidently had several reasons for
not desiring to make the acquaintance
of his compatriots, but the fact that
his mission was to verify, secretly,
l'hp nature and value of the drugs
they should purchase was undoubt
edly the principal reason.
§ Mysterious Lexicon.
| He passed his time on shipboard,
studying English from a leather-cov
“rr-d memorandum book. This book
’rumninod several hundred English
words and phrases, with the Russian
iequivalents. It was a book which
{easily attract attention, on account ofl
its unusual binding.
It attracted the attention of Mesars.
Kirflov and Smetanin, because M.
Boruch earried it with him almost
constantly. Their curlosity increased
from day to day. M. Boruch, aware
of this and amused, guarded the book
more closely
