DEPUTIES ARE CRITICAL

CII.WGIXG LA A" CI FAG 12 OF THE CA A' OX OX 3IATIH310X Y. Little Progress .Made A'estertlay 1- the Episcopal Con vent ion Mission Hoard OIHcers. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1-). The Trie-nnial Convention of the. Episcopal Church of America accomplished much routine work to-day, but made little progress toward disposing of the canon on marriage and di vorce, which came up in committee of the whole in the House of Deputies. The popular interest in the subject was evidenced by the crowded galleries, a large majority of the spectators being women, nearly all of whom remained until the hour of adjournment. The discussion, however, was of a purely technical character. There seemed to bo a determination to secure technical correctness In the text. It was also noticed that many lawyers in the lay delegation were taking a keen interest in the subject. The fourth and most important section of the canon which was adopted by the bishops practically forbidding the marriage of divorced persons was not reached. The first two sections and all but the last paragraph of Section 3 were adopted with but one slight change, the conjunction "iror" being stricken out, thus dividing the paragraph into two complete sentences. An attempt was made to have the matter discussed behind closed doors, but the attempt failed. That the spirit of the Huntington amendment to the constitution permitting modilied forms of worship still lives despite elefeat was shown by the presentation in the House- of Deputies this morning of a constitutional amendment couched in almost its exact language. The principal change; is .the adoption of a resolution th.it no form of worship allowed shall be in conflict with the canons of the church. It was referred to a committee. Rev. E. Winchester Donald, of Massachusetts, who presented the proposed amendment, created quite a sensation by declaring that he diel not consider ordination necessary for a celebrant of holy communion. The House of Rishops devoted most of the day to consideration of the qualitications of the various persons who are desirous of filling the vacant missionary bishoprics of the Philippines. Porto Rico, Hankow, North Dakota and Olympia. No names were given out and the only action taken was a decision to vote for the candidates tomorrow. There was a missionary conference to-night at Trinity Church, the session being devoted especially to the work in China and Japan. Addresses were delivered by the bishops of Shanghai, Kyoto and Tokio and Rev. Dr. Turnbull Huntington, of Hankow. The church association for the advancement of the interests of labor held a largely attended meeting to-night at the Alhambra Theater. The principal speaker was Rishop Potter, of New York, who spoke eloquently on the relations of capital and labor and of the citizen to the state. The woman's auxiliary to the board of missions listened to addresses to-day from Rishops Horner, of Asheville, Hart, of South Dakota, and General Secretary Lloyd, of the missionary board. FOREIGN MISSION' WORK. Report of the American Hoard' Secretary Hebt AVI pod Out. HARTFORD, Conn., Oct. lO.-Thc report of the committee on missions prepared by the Rev. Dr. James L. Rarton, foreign secretary, was a feature of the forenoon session of the American board of commissioners for foreign missions. It was presented by the chairman, the Rev. Dr. C. II. Patten, of St. Louis. The report, in conclusion, said: "Summing up the entire field, covering one-half of the American board work, we would say that it has been a typical missionary year, not without diseouragements in some fields and sharp difficulties in others, but a steady pushing furWard, while at least two fields show a marked advance." Ottieers were elect eO! as follows: President, Samuel R. Ca pen, LL. D.; vice president. Henry, Hopkins; corresponding secretaries, Juilson Smith, 1). 1., Charles II. Daniels, D. D., James L. Rarton, D. D.; treasurer. Frank II. Wiggins: editorial secretary. Elnathan E. Strong. D. D. ; recording secretary. Henry A. Stimson, D. D. ; assistant recording secretary, EdwarJ N. Packard. D. I).; auditors. Edwin H. Baker. Hon. Henry E. Cobb and Hon. William 13. 1'lunkett. The annual address of President S. D. Capen. LL. D., was delivered in the evening. It was a financial statement and an appeal for a million dollars annually for foreign missions. At the close of the addiess Rev. Dr. S. I'arkes Cadman, of Rrooklyn, began an effort to raise $1o2.0o0 to wipe out the debt of the board. After $l,0oa or $2.oou had been subscribed, It was asked if an unconditional gift of $48,000 re cently received by the board could not be applied to the debt. Col. Hopkins said that the prudential committee would so apply it. The thousands then came in very fast and $2a,0u0 was pledged in one lump, pro vided that the full amount be pledged. At 11 o'clock President Capen announced that every dollar of the debt has been wiped out. This was greeted with the singing of the Doxology. 1h final J1.000 was pledged by ex-Governor Rulkely, in behalf of the South Church of this city. Erangrellcal Church Council. LIMA, O., Oct. 10. The Grand Council of the Evangelical Church of North America met here to-day In biennial session. Several hundred prominent dignitaries of the church are present from all parts of the country. The biennial report of President Ranseen was read this afternoon. The election of officers resulted in the unanimous re-election of President Ran seen, and W. II. Stak, of Philadelphia, was elected treasurer for the twentieth succes sive time. The discussions were tnen taken up, the chief in point of Interest being in the theme of "Marriage in Its Relation to Divorce." The position was taken that it makes marriage Indissoluble for life, di vorce by divine authority being legitimate only when the marriage covenant has been broken either by "husband or wife. The decree of divorce only gives the right to remarriage to the innocent party, who has been released on scriptural grounds. Mar riage by a Christian minister gives the' an proval of the church to the union, and. therefore, cannot be performed by him in a case where there is the least doubt. Officer Elected hy Women.

CHICAGO, Oct. 10. Vice, its cause, effect and its remedies, were discussed in papers and addresses delivered at to-day's session of the National Purity convention. Two ad dresses, "The Power of God for a Pure Life," by the Rev. Milton S. Anderson, of New Eritain, Conn., and "The Care of Dependent Children." by Mrs. Virginia T. Faith, of Hartford, Conn., received close attention during the forenoon. Papers were read by Mrs. A. L. Riddle, of New York; Dora Leslie Webb, of East Palestine. O.; Joseph S. Walton, of Philadelphia; Dr. J. H. Kellogg, of Rattle Creek; Mrs. M. E. Otto, of St. Louis; Miss Annie Golf, of London, and Elizabeth R. Grannis. of New York. Dr. Kellogg spoke of the "Influence of Diet Upon Character." Owing to the action of the House of Rish ops of the triennial Episcopal convention, at ban I-rancisco. in forbidding Episcopal ministers from solemnizing marriages between "any man or woman divorced for any cause whatsoever," the address of Rev. D. D. Mitchell, of Winnebago City, Minn., received marked attention. His address was entitled "Divorce Not a Matter of Choice," and in a philosophical vein he mustered facts in support of his text. The convention closed to-night after appointing a committee with power to call another conference at any time to extend the scope and power of the work. The committee is composed of the presidents of the Purity societies most prominent in the convention just closed. The members are: R. S. Stead well, La Crosse, Wis.; Elizabeth R.

MANILA, Oct. 10. A detachment of the Twenty-first Company of Macabebes to-day encountered a large force of insurgents near LI pa, province of Ratangas. Lieut. Reau, of the Macabebes, was killed, and one of the force was wounded. The enemy was strongly intrenched. After two hours' fighting the Americans retreated to await reinforcements. The insurgents numbered over three hundred, were armed with Remington and Mauser rifles and, apparently, had plenty of ammunition. Martin, a teacher of Mauban, was captured by insurgents while visiting a neighboring town, under an escort of native police. The next day his captors, relenting, tied him in a hammock and carried him to a po.-nt within a mile of the town and released him, saying he was a noncombatant. The entire force of police of Catang, province of Tayabas, numbering eleven, have been carried off by the insurgents, armed only with bolos. Presumably, the police made no resistance, though they were well armed with carbines and revolvers. SPEECH BY HENDERSON. Speaker of the House n Firm Deliever In the Doctrine of Protection. MANCHESTER, la., Oct. 19. D. B. Henderson, speaker of the House of Representatives, made one of the principal addresses at a Republican meeting here tonight. He said in part: "I never was a firmer believer In the doctrine of protection than I am to-day. After some three months spent this summer in several of the countries of Europe I am only strengthened in my convictions. No one policy has done so much for the development of our country for the elevation of labor on the farm and In the shop, than this great policy. Some are urging a revision of the tariff. I am not now prepared to say whether the situation variants revision or not at this time, but if revision is entered cn I feel as did our lamented PresWent when he gave out the splendid utterance at Buffalo, that any action taken 'must not interrupt our home productions.' As in the past, the Republican iarty will undoubtedly make such revision of the tariff as is needed when the necessity and the duty becomes plain." CORNERED THE WIND.

AT WHITE HOUSE AGAIN

SKXATOR IIEN EUlIHiC I C ONFF.RILCi: WITH THE PRESIDENT. Weitster Street to Give Way to J. A. Jamison as Chief Justice of Arizona Roosevelt's Horses. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON. Oct. 10. Senator Reveridge was one of the many callers at the White House again to-day. He lunched with the President and was a visitor there again this evening. Mr. Roosevelt has asked him to make a full statement of his observations in China and the Philippines. Mr. Beveridge expects to return to Indiana to-morrow or next day. Representative Thompson, of Alabama, presented to the President to-day Capt. John R. McDonald, of the Third Cavalry, who is an applicant for a brigadier generalship. Captain McDonald was wounded In the Philippines last spring while assaulting: a force of insurgents under General Tinto, whom he captured. Representative Thompson said the President informed him he believed In rewarding officers for exceptional services and should not hesitate if the occasion warranted to do so by jumping them over their superiors. Senator Dietrich, of Nebraska, talked to the President about Nebraska appointments and also briefly about the situation in the Philippines, whence he has recently returned. Senator Dietrich is of opinion that civil government Is being extended too rapidly throughout the islands. He thinks the natives who massacred the company of soldiers in Samar were refugees who had been driven out of Luzon by the military authorities. It is understood that Julius A. Jamison is to be appointed chief .iustice of Arizona Territory to succeed Webster Street, against whom charges have been pending for some time. THE PRESIDENT'S HOUSES. Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt Will Hide Occasionally Together. WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. President Roosevelt has purchased three horses, a landau, a brougham and a victoria. The carriages and horses are expected to arrive here early next week. They were obtained in New York through the President's brother-in-law, Douglas Robinson. The President already has in the White House stables a fine Kentucky thoroughbred saddle horse, which he purchased at Fort Plain, Ky., since he became President, and Mrs. Roosevelt's saddle mare, Yaeganka, is also "here. The President's saddle horse is called Bielstein, and he is said to be a line animal, galted and a jumper. It is the intention of the President and Mrs. Roosevelt to ride occasionally together. Contrary to the popular impression, the horses owned by the government which are in the White House stables are seldom used by the President. The chief magistrate has his own horses and carriages and the government horses are used by the secretary to the President and other White House officials. All the horses and carriages belonging to the late President have been sent back to Canton. Major Generul Wood's Report. WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. The War Department has made public the annual report of. MaJ. Gen. Leonard Wood, commanding the Department of Cuba, for the last fiscal year. A preceding report treated of the civil administration of the island. This report deals with military affairs entirely. General Wood says the general conduct of the American troops in Cuba continues to be excellent, and. as heretofore, complaints against them from civil authorities and individuals are extremely rare. The total number of deaths of officers and enlisted men during the year was sixtyseven, a percentage of less than 1.25. Yellow fever has now been almost driven from the island, owing: to the energetic war upon the mosquitoes and the sanitary precautions adopted. However, during the past summer five officers of General Wood's staff were taken ill with yellow fever and three of them died. Among the headquarters employes there were forty-eight victims to yellow fever, with eleven deaths. Recruits to De Sent to Philippines. WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. It has been determined at the War Department to send troops to the Philippines to take the places of those whose terms of enlistment expire. Where the re-enlistments are not large in any one regiment their places will be filled by separate detachments of recruits. If any considerable number of enlistments expire in a single organization it is probable the organization as a whole will be returned from the Philippines and another regiment sent to take its place.
