HIS VOTE LEGAL.
Rev. DR.. BatcOck'S Standing In the
Episcopal Convention.
Retains His Canon cal Rights In the Dio-
ceSe tf Rhode Island.

The Boston Globe today raised tho ques-
tion as to the legality of Rev. DIR. David
H. Greer's election as bishop coadjutor of
the diocese of Rhode Island. and several
of the churchmen of this city, whose at
tention has been called to the statement
of the Boston paper laugh at IL as absurd
The Globe says:
1.-The delegates at the convention, Ii is
now stated by a member thereof. declined
to make the nomination unanimous,
although that was proposed after DIR. Greer
was declared the successful nominee. It
is also recalled that the clergy cast just
the requisite number OF votes necessary Tor
a choice on their part.
The right to vote of DR.. BabcCck. the
successor of DIR. Greer at Grace church in
this city, Is now being questioned. lt is
claimed that Rev. Mr. Babcock has no
residence here in Rhode Island, and no
property which would tend To give him
legal claim to a residence.
lin other words, IL is asserted that he
does not belong To this diocese. and that
had his vote net been cast with those of
the diocese clorgymen, there would have
been no choice on the first ballot AT the
convention Rev. DR. Babcock was sup
porter of DIR. Greer. He came to Provl-
dencs from Ohio, but year or more ago
was succeeded by Bev. FLOYD Iomkins,
Rev. DIR. Babcock had perfect right TO
vote at the convention because be Is a
canonical resident Of this diocese. An
Episcopal Clergyman sretains his canon
ical rights in any one diocese until he ac-
uuires them in another and ms DIR. Bah
cock hns had no parish since he lett Grace
church. he is still member Of this dio-
cese, and furthermore. DIR. Babcock Is n
legal resident Of this state by other stand
ards than that provided by the constitu-
tion OF the church. HIS sons Will was
lately probated in this city.
If DIR. Babcocks vote had bcen rejected
at the convention there would have been
several other clergymen disiranchi-ed FOR
the same reason and some OF them voted
against DR. Greer
Article III OF the constitution Of the
Rhode Island diocese says:
The Rhode Island Episcopal convention
shall consist of the bishop, of all other
clerUymen legally and economically resi-
dent i'm the diocese for one year next pre-
ceding any session thereof, and of dele
gates from each parish In union with the
convention as hereinafter provided.

Mr.. Allison Contended for a High Duty.
Some Others Were Opposed.

of his intention 10 move reconsideration
Of paragraph llS-iron ore-his purpose
being TO secure further action on the
clause inserting manganese ore at 81 per
ton. lie said he would rot urge the sub
joct until nc had consulted the finance
committee.
Mr.. Allison then proceeded with the
detached paragraphs heretofore passed
over. On bleaching powder the duty
was changed from 20 to ID cents per
pound.
Mr.. Vest moved to place the article on
the free list and an extended debate en-
sued on the use Of bleaching powder IN
paper pulp factories.
Mr.. Gray (Del. contended that bleach
ing powder was not made in the country,
SO the duty was an unwarranted ono on
laper makers. He presented protest
fr IN the paper manufacturers Of Mnssa-
chusetts against the proposed duty. Mr..
Allison insisted that the rate was de-
signed TO make the United Alkali Com
pany Of England, which controlled the
product, pay for the control of the trade.

LIQUOR nuisance at SO and 80 Tefft street,
was tried today In Judge Wilbur's court.
The only cases thus far Of parties out on
bail have been nuisance cases or cases
with which the sale of liquor Is connected
and this has been a matter OF more or
less comment about the county cours
house, it being the usual custom TO leave
such cases until the last. Judges have
been also remarkably unanimous in find
ing the defendants guilty.
Giblin's place was in Capt Marston'e
district, and the time tho nuisance was
maintained according To tho indictments
was from July OF last year until the 9TH
of the current month.
The place where IL Is alleged that Glib
lin violated tho law was visited by police
officers and spotters One OF the former
Officer Bugbeo, got into the barroom and
had "a talk with Giblin, who was stand
ing at the side of the bar. The bar was
in an upstair room and witness saw all
the customary liquor paraphernalia, az he
termed it, in the place.

seen persons go TO Giblin's place ana

for Giblin, however, insisted and Officer
Reed named prominent business man
on Teift street When asked IL this party
was incorporate his reply was: We'll, he
