An Ecclesiastical Row.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Feb. 19.-The
fight over the conservation of Rev. DR.
Williams, as bishop of the Marquette
Episcopal diocese, has developed q
sensation and one that has brought the
Right Rev. P. T. Rowe, bishop Of
Alaska, into unpleasant notoriety.
Bishop Rowe wrote Mr.. Williams a
friendly and sympathetic letter, re-
gard the protest entered against the
latter, with the result that Mr.. Will
liams replied, expressing himself
without reserve relative to the men
who were behind the protest and using
language which, to the ecclesiastical
mind. places him in bad light as a
Christian. Bishop Rowe, instead of
treating the letter confidentially, turn
ed it over to the delegates with the re-
suit that it has been printed and sent
to every bishop in the country.
