Discussions in the Protestant EpiscO-
pal General Convention.
New YORK, Special. When the roll call of
committees was read in theI general
convention of the Protestant Episcopal
church, Rev. Dr. Benedict, chairman OF the
committee on constitutional amendments,
submitted report that the committee
deemed it inexpedient to make any change
in the representation to the general conven-
ton or to make any change in the method of
voting. Objection to the present considera-
ton of the report was made, and under the
rule it was placed on the calendar and the
committee discharged. The subject of the re-
port, proportionate representation, which it
opposes, is one of the most important
to be acted upon by the present convention.
Dr.. Benedict, from the same committee, re-
ported in favor of allowing bishops to Fave
the Offices Of the church set forth in modern
language other than the English when the
number of persons unacquainted with the
English language ia considerable This also
went on the calendar. A message from the
house of bishops was received announcing
consent to the conservation of Rev. Drs.
Morris and Spalding as bishops OF Oregon
and Colorado, respectively. The house then
took up the order Of the day. the re-
port on hymnals The report was
IN favor of several changes in the
present hymnal, comprising omissions, SUBJ
stitutions and additions. The convention
went into committee OF the whole. and after
one or two changes were agreed upon the
question arose as to whether such commit
miJtee was competent to act After alengthy
discussion a motion to refer the subject back
to The original committee was carried, and a
motion permitting the use of the present
hvmnal until the committee reported was
carried, after several intervening motions
and amendments were put The house of
bishops sent message informing the house
of deputies that they declined to adopt the
alterations suggested in the Te Deum. They
would, however, sanction title 1, section 2, Of
the constitution, agreeing to the election of
a bishop three months after the general con-
vention.

A LINEMAN'S FATE.
Burned to Death in Midair by an
Electric Light Wire.

Electric Light Wire.
New YORK. Special-An electric lineman
met with a horrible death at the corner of
Center and Chambers street, from
contact with an electric light wire. He was
employed by the Western Union company,
and presented a terrible sight as he died on
the net work of wires in midair The mans
face was turned toward the walk. The wire
in fifteen minutes had burned off half the
face of the victim. The left arm was
also seen to be burning and every
few seconds the blue flames spurted
out from the various parts OF the body
Immediately after the accident Mayor Grant
was notified and gave orders that the wires
that caused the accident be cut t once The
body was left on the wires for more than q
half-hour. Deputy Coroner J. Atkins said
that the spectacle was the most CHASTITY he
had ever seen. sThe wire" he said, (which
cut through the lineman's cheek had evil
DENLY entered at The mouth. 1t had burned
clear into the cheek bone. The burning of
the throat had severed the windppe and
many muscles and veins just below the
Adams apple. If tine man had remained
suspended IN the air much longer the head
would have been completely severed from
the body. The shock may OF may not have
killed him Instantly. but it certainly rendered
him unconscious, so that his face fell for
