MACARTHY TRUST.
METHODIST CONFERENCE DECISION. MONEY NOT TO BE APPLIED FOE, AUCKLAND, March 5. A decision was made by the New Zealand Methodist Conference to take no further advantage of the benefits of the T. G. Macarthy Trust in view of the fact that it was stated that it derived much of its revenue from interests allied to the liquor trade. A lengthy .-discussion was held in committee oh a remit from the Hawke's Bay and Manawatu Synod strongly protesting against the Wellington Methodist Charitable and Education Endowment Trust applying for money from the Macarthy Trust for the Masterton Orphanage, which has received £2OO a year for the past three years. On the conference resuming in open council, it was stated that no further advantage of the trust would be taken, and this year's application for a donation for the Masterton Orphanage would be withdrawn. It was decided that if the amount had already been granted it would be returned.
