NEW YORK, October l9.-The action
Of the Dean Of Canterbury in takiT g
part in the celebration of the Lords
supper, on Sunday, the fifth instant, has
caused, as expected, much discussion
among members of the Anglican and
Protestant Episcopal churches, and let
ters have been written TO the dean and
to Bishop Potter, OF this diNcese, by
Right Rev. DR.. Tozer, late missionary
bishop to CeHtral Africa. A tardy pub
licatiOn is this morning given to these
letters, the existence and import of
which have been known for some days.
In letter to Bishop Potter, DR.. Tozer
says: 4" 1t is by no means improbable
that restless and excitaGle persons
in England will seize upon this
act,i which / must presume to call
open hostility to the discipline Of the
church, as an excuse and apology for at
tending, from time to time, the attract
i've services OF the Church Of Rome;
but the result of this experiment here in
America may be even more disastrous,
for, 80 far as DR.. Smiths influence ex-
tends, it will suggest the idea that the
promise held out by the Episcopal
church in this land Of becoming the
haven of rest of the men who are tossed
to and fro by the multiplicity of con-
tending creeds and systems is nothing
else than a mistake and a delusion.
Mrs. Charles Backus, formerly Kate

The federal council of the Internation-
al workingmen's association had q
meeting yesterday, when the committee
on cheap transportation recommended
as the best means Of facilitating trans
portation the opening of the larger water
ways under the control Of the govern
ment at rates covering the running
charges and repairs. The committee was
to wait on MayOrHavermeyer to see what
could be done about modifying the con-
tract system, so as to give fifty thousand
persons who were last year depending
on commissioners Of charities for some
means of earning their own bread. 1t
reported that the mayor would do moth
ing, and that he said he did not care if
one million people were without the
chance of earning a livelihood this win
ter.
The steamship George D, Clyde, which
arrived at Kew West, October 6th, from
Galveston for New York, reports that
during the severe hurricane Of the sixth,
Captain Cole, the second officer, chief
engineer and one seaman were washed
overheard and drowned.
A Washington dispatch says that the
German minister has just received in
telligeuce from Berlin stating authori-
tatively that Madame Won Bismarck is
not only not dead, but not sick. The
story was probably invented by the Ul-
tramontanists to coincide with the ar
rival of Victor Emanuel at Berlin, so
that it would appear that Bismarck had
suffered this sfflictiou for the king of
Italy.
The trial of Edward S. Stokes resumed
