San Francisco, Aug. 5.-The Chror icle
saws: A perplexing question has risen
among Protestant Episcopalians In this
country .,arding the future govern
ment of the branch of that church in
Hawaii. At present the island diocese
is in charge of Bishop Willis Of the
Established church of England and has
no direct atfiliation with the Protestant
Episcopal church of the United States.
II is believed, however among high
church authorities that as result Of
the annexation of the islands the Epis-
copalians there will be brought into de
rect relations with the American church
and that the diocese Of the Pacific Is
lands will perhaps be merged into ths
diocese of California.

reached its climax Monday when Colo
