the church contenting themselves
with a view of the procession as it
crossed from Knickerbacker hall to
the church door.
The service, from first to last, was
pitched to an exalted scale, we'll be-
fitting the occasion and the great
men who graced it by their presence.
The venerable Whipple, the classic
Coke, the stately Dudley, the pol
tshed Sewell, the towering form of
Bishop Macfray, the long line of
prelates lent to the solemn process
siona1 a dignity seldom seen, and
as the faltering tones of the cele-
brant alternated with the fresh
young voices of the boy choir, the
multitude sat in awed and rever-
ent silence.
The opening sermon by Bishop
Coke was a scholarly and exhaustive
effort in full keeping with the spirit
of the occasion. The service was not
concluded till after o'clock. After
luncheon, the two houses assembled
for organization, which was quickly
and satisfactorily accomplished, and

| Some opposition was developed,

understood, his motion carried with

| Dix ruled that the report of the COM
mittee, as it had been prepared dur

erything else, and as it could not be

a special order.

a few changes, will be presented for
consideration.
From the drift of the debate yes

ably be made to table the whole mat

Thus the strength of it's supports
will be tested early in the conven-
ton, and if they are not strong

strong in favor of revision, though

WITH STATELY TREAD
The Venerable Bishops Move in
Professional

Amid the impressive silence, well be-
fitting the solemnity of the occasion.
the great professional marched from
Knickerbacker hall to the main en-
trance of Gethsemane church, and the
opening exercises of the great triennial
general convention were begun.
1t was a. grandly solemn scene. and
one long to be remembered, as the
splendid body of venerable men COM
posing the great house of bishops of
the Protestant Episcopal church in
America followed the uplifted cross of
Jesus Christ into the sacred edifice,
which for the next three weeks will
be the scene of much interesting legis-
lation upon the affairs of the church.
AT n:15 the choir formed In line at
the entrance to Knickerbacker Memo
rial hall, and a few moments later the
procession moved.
First came the cross uplifted by a.
small chorister boy, moving with slow
and dignified step. Then the choir in
double file, beginning with the smallest
boys and ending with the tallest men.

was the loss Sunday evening to the
family and to our town in the burn
ing of the fine home of our banker
and Danish consul for Minnesota,
Hon. F. S. Christensen, together
with many valuable works of art,
statuary and curios which had been
gathered by him and his friends
in various quarters of the globe, yet
it were all as nothing compared to
the loss of the owner, Mr.. Christen-
sen, who died shortly before noon
today on the grounds of his late
home, Willow Wild, in his bath
house ON the creek, by bullet
through his brain fired by his own
hand while in a fit of temporary in
sanity, caused by brooding over the
loss of his home. He leaves an es-
timable widow and accomplished
daughter, who are loved and SYM
pathiZed with by all, also a brother,
Senator William P Christensen, of
Olivia, and sisters, Mrs. Herlet, of
Isanti county, Mrs. Christianson, Of
Minneapolis and Mrs. Hanson, of
Breckinridge. His wife is the
daughter of Hon: S. J. Willard, of
Red Wing, and niece of the late Col.
Hans Mattson, secretary of state for
Minnesota. The domestic relations
of deceased were the best. He was
president Of the bank of Rush City,
which he built up and which pros
pered throughout the depression.
His financial condition was excellent.
The depositors held a meeting this
evening and the report of the exam
ination was first class. There will
be no loss to any depositor and the
bank will continue. A vote of con-
fldence and personal guarantee was
made by all to sustain the bank and
pay any anxious creditor. No anx-
iety is felt, though. Mr.. Christensen
left an ample estate, considerable
character for integrity. The poor in
this community will miss him, as
will every promoter of public or phil
amthropic enterprises his wise coun-
sci and purse. He has been president
of the village and of the school
board, member of the legislature,
state board of equalization, assistant
secretary of state and commissioner
of statistics. He was a member OF
the knights of Honor. He was born
dn Copenhagen, Denmark, fifty-eight
years ago last April The coroner's
jury is now in session, but will find
as above. The funeral will occur
Friday at II o'clock.

LINCOLN, Neb., Oct 2-The Repub-

order at 2 pm. at the Funk opera house
by Hon. John l.. Webster, temporary
chairman. Not all of the 1,O57 delegates
to the convention were present at the
opening; still there were several hun
dred of them. The convention preiim-
mary was the most harmonious ever
witnessed in the state. The temporary
organization was tonight made perma-

silver as standard money. 1t expresses

episcopate, was also reelected, and
the machinery OF the house put well
under way. Secretaries, stenograph-
ers and pages were given an hour Of
lively work in the opening proceed
ings. A number of older deputies
took hold, and there was never lack
of some one to occupy the floor, or
to interpose the proper motion at
the proper place. In this respect the
house appeared more like some we'll
trained legislative body than like
the representative of a great church
gathered in one body for the first
time.
The opening gun of the battle on
constitutional revision was fired
shortly before the close of the ses-
sion, when DR.. Hoffman, of New
York, representing the joint COM

CONSERVATIVE on REVISION.
Joint Commission Will Make Re-
port Today.

The joint commission which has
been vainly wrestling with its report
to be submitted to the general cor
vention, is said to have finally con~
cluded to abandon it's proposed revis.
ion of the canons and to report THAI
a majority of the commission are OPP
posed to the revised constitution,
which they had prepared. They are
thus said to have abandoned, one-half
their report and to discredit the other
half.
This commission seems to have mis-
understood or misinterpreted the in
structions given it. 1t was to have
merely revised the constitution and
canons; but, instead of SO doing, re-
draft of them was made, embodying
some changes so radical as to cause
considerable friction in the rank and
file of the church. Many of the clergy
and laiety have been heard to express
themselves as greatly pleased with the
reported abandonment by the commits
sion of its proposed report.

JUDGES AND CLERKS BEATEN.
Fierce AH-Day Conflict Between
COntending City and County
Factions.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2.-Bruised, tat
tered and bleeding, the contending
city and county factions in today's
Republican primaries retired from
the field of conflict tonight to take
brief rest preparatory to fighting
the battle to finish in tomorrow's
convention. Both factions claimed
victory. Broken heads and black
eyes in more than a score of pri-
mary precincts attested to the fierce
ness of the battle waged between
the city and county factions for
control Of the convention and for
supremacy in the local party or
ganization. Never before, it is said,
in the history of Cook county were
such scenes enacted as were wit
messed at many of the polling places
in the First, Second, Third, Fifth,
Sixth, Seventh, Ninth, Tenth,
Twelfth, Twenty-third and Thirtieth
wards. The disreputable element, ir-
respective of politics, was attracted
to the polls by the bitter partisan
surroundings and thuggery, bull
doing ,rioting, wrecking Of polling
booths and terrorizing in general
The result of the riots at many of the
polling places will be made manifest
in the convention. There will be
contesting delegations from the
wards mentioned, and the bitterness
aroused by today's events will seri-
ously interfere with the prospects
of harmony.
REIGN OF TERROR.
In the First ward gangs of toughs
kept the ward in a reign of terror
from the time the polls opened until
they closed. Nearly every polling
place in the ward was raided by the
gang, which was working for the
city faction. Barricades erected by
the county faction were broken
down, ballot boxes were seized, and
the city faction held possession dur
ing the remainder of the day. In
other wards similar disgracefu1
scenes were witnessed. In the first
precinct of the Ninth ward the coun-
ty faction gang raided the polls,
threw the judges and clerks out and
| took possession of the ballot box.
The judges and clerks who were
thrown out opened another polling
place next door. In the fourth pre-
cinct of the Twelfth ward the city
gang raided the polling place and
threw the judges clerks who be-
longed to the faction into the street.
The evicted judges went across the
street and opened another polling
place, but the gang followed them,
and, breaking the ballot box into
splinters, drove the. judges away
from the vicinity. The Sixth ward
/ was another scene Of disorder and
fighting. Several bloody fights char
acterized the primaries in this ward.
So far as can be learned nobody
was killed, but scores of persons
were more or less seriously injured.
In the tough districts decent citizens
remained away from the primaries,
not caring to imperil their lives by
attempting to vote.

cross passed the threshold of the
Forward Be Our Watchword," and
those in the immense throng, standing
with uncovered heads around the
church, who were familiar with the
words and tune, joined in the hymn
and sent toward high heaven a volume
of sacred song whose rhythmic cadence
seemed to vibrate through the atmos-
phere and send a wondrous influence
through the crowd.
A finer or more venerable body of
men was never before seen in this city
than these distinguished guardians of
Christ's divine commission, as they
wended their way through the assem-
bled throng and entered the crowded
church to partake of the sacrament
and listen to the eloQuence of the VEN

BILE to join the procession, and was,
therefore, admitted through the choir
room, and awaited the coming of the
professional at the chancel rail.
Many of the bishops wore simply
their robes, others their britas, and
many were adorned with the hoods,
indicating the degrees conferred upon
them by various universities. Cam
bridge and Oxford and all the pro1ni-
nent universities of America were rep
resented in the procession of learned
and gifted men comprising the house
of bishops.

THE RECEssIoNAL.

At the close of the services the
bishops left the church in reverse or
der of entering, the senior bishops
going first and the junior last, the
choir bringing up the rear, singing ''Go
Forward, Christian Soldier" and all
marching with stately tread through
the dense crowd that again filled the
streets and sidewalk. The crowd un-
covered their heads and stood in silent
reverence as the recessional slowly
wended its way from the church to
Memorial hall, and closed the opening
services of the greatest religious gath
ering ever held in the Northwest.
