THE EPIsCOPALIANs.
The General Convention sparring Con-
siderably.

copaI convention yesterday, Dean Hoff-
mann of the committee on constitution
and canons, made final report contain
ing the proposed canons on marriage and
divorce, upon which the committee has
been labering ever since the assembling
Of the convention.
The canons, which were received and
placed on file, read as follows:
No. mo minister of this church shall
solemn1ze the marriage of any person who
has a divorced husband or wife still liv-
ing, but this prohibition shall not be held
to apply to the innocent partya1n Oh
yorce which the court shall have granted
for the cause Of adultery, or to the PAL
ties divorced from each other seeking TO
be united again.
2-If any minister of this church know
or have reasonable cause to believe that
a person has been married otherwise
than as the discipline of this church doth
allow, he shall not minister holy baptism
or the holy communion to such persons
without the written consent OF the bishop
of the diocese.
Provided, however, that no minister
shall in any case refuse the sacraments
to a penitent person in imminent danger
of death.
For an hour or more the house was in
a legal tangle over request from the
Joint commission that itsbe continued IN
existence to consider the canons as may
not be acted upon by this convention.
The bishops had already decided in IA
vor of continuing the commission on the
canon question only, and after tedious
debate the house concurred by vote of
1893 to So
This matter disposed of, the order of the
day. the establishment of the 'provin-
cial system'' or the formation OF dioceses
into provinces, was called for, and DR..
TAYLOR of Springfield made short ad
dress in it's favor.
The house finally shelyed the provin-
cial question by referring it to special
committee to report in 1898 The house
annroved resolution presented by Ar
thnr Iowden of Massachusetts, setting
forth that the good of the nation demand
ed that Independence Day should be OBJ
served religiously as we'll as otherwise,
and suggesting that a special form of Sc
vice be employed for that day. The reso-
luton went to the bishops.
