At Yesterdays Session OF the House
OF Deputies-Further Revis-

CHICAGO, H., Octob or g. The House
OF Deputies of the Protestant Episco.

at 10 o'clock this morning.
Rev. DIR. Clark presented the rep 1rt
OF the Committee ON Memorials of De.
ceased Members. the r, ading of which
WIS cco mpanied by religious exercises
conducted by President Dix.
The report began by calling attention
to the large number of members who
had died in the last few years, and
then proceeded to give q brief bio.
graphical sketch OF each. At
tached to the report were resolutions
that the House put on record its
grateful recognition Of the virtues and
services of thoee who have died. The
report was adopted by a standing vote.
-Four messages from the House of
Bishops relating to amendments to
the constitution were ooncurred in.
A message I ON the House Of Il shops
relating to special care OF immigranis,
recommended that the Bishop OF
New Jersey be corresponding secrs-
tary OF the commission, and that COM
muuicltion be opened with the Arch
bishops OF Canterbury, York, Armagh
and Dublin, and the primate of Scot
land. The message was concuned ia.
A message from the House OF Bsh-
ops, recommending that the canon re-
lating to lay readers be amended 80 as
TO make the period of the license
longer than one yesr, was not con-
currs d 10 by the House. The House
then went into Committee of the
Whole to consider questions affecting
liturglcal revi.ions.
The special topic was alterations and
additions proposed for adoption by the
convention, and after submission 10

alterations and additions hitherto con-
sidered in that, unlike the latter C ass.
they require three years for final
ratification. The form adopted at the
last convention and submitted to the
dioceses in the Book OF Ratification
was conpurred in, the House Of
Bishops having already decided in its
favor. For the order "now the psalttr
is appointed to be read" and Tor the
order, 'how the rest Of the Holy
Scripture is appointed 10 be read" the
general order concerning the services

table of proper psalms, il substi d.
BY the action of the deputies much
new matter, not only in form, but in
substance, is afforded, and the net re-
suit is a marked enrichment of the
portion of the prayer book containing
what is permissive and mandatory in
the service of the church. Further
revision of the book will be,acted upon
on Monday.
