MURDERER WILLIAMS. NERVE.

Salem, Oct. 7.-"Wonderful nerve"
were the words used by Sheriff Johnson
OF Essex county in describing the de-
meanor of Alfred c. Williams. whom he
hung this forenoon for the murder OF
John Guilo. The expression used by
the sheriff was borne out by visit last
night TO the cell of the condemned man,
who, with the thought that ne had but
a few hours more 10 live constantly be-
fore him, showed absolutely no sign of
emotion, and in fact appeared to be
but slightly interested in the arrange
ments that were being made for the exc
cution.
His last act before the sun set last
night was to request that a bouquet OF
fine flowers, that grow in beds at diff
ferent intervals on the lawn in front OF
the jail be sent to him, and when they
were received he kissed them fondly
He was called at $50, and after break
fast was prepared for the gallows. The
Rev. Mr.. Puffer accompanied the plis-
oner in his march 10 death.

DEPUTIES AND BISHOPS.
Disagreement over the Adoption Of
Amendments to the Constitution.


Washington, Oct. THE delegates 10
the Episcopal convention took action
Thursday on the amendments adopted
by both houses OF the general conven-
ton OF 1895 and which required ratifica-
tion by the next subsequent convention
to. become operative. The first OF these
affected the question OF heading or title
for the constitution and canons of the
church, and provided II should be as fol-
lows: Constitution and canons for the
government of that portion OF the Catho-
lie church known in law as the Protestant
Episcopal church I'm the United States
OF America" The amendment made by
the last convention incorporated in the
title the following words: THAT por-
ton OF the Catholic church known in
law as"
1t had few advocates in the house of
deputies. The opponents asserted that
the change made the title cumbersome
and AWKWARD" that portion" indi-
Gated cutting out or dismemberment;
that IL was unnecessary 10 declare that
the Episcopalians were a part OF the
Catholic church. and that some wag
would soon nickname the Episcopalian
the I'm law" church. The amendment
was defeated by vote Of los nays TO I
yeas.
The next amendment, which contem-
plated the substitution OF article for
articles /, 2. 3 OF the old constitution, and
which was adopted almost unanimously
by the last convention, was also defeat
ed by vote of 90 TO IL. Meantime mes
eages had been received from the bishops
that they had adopted both the amend
ments rejected by the house. but in each
case a motion was made In the deputies
that they refuse TO concur in the action
OF the bishops, and that body was so in
forrsed.
The following communication from
Philip Agoncillo, tho Philippine repre-
sentative now In this country. was read:
I'VE rejoice with you in the assemblage
today OF your general convention: and,
taking advantage OF this solemn occas-
ion, we believe IL to be our duty TO convey
To you our high consideration and re-
spect. The exalted American clergy
certainly represent christian morals and
holy charity. virtues which elevate them
In the general esteem. In paying this
tribute of admiration to the exalted
ecclesiastical hierarchy Of North
America, W fulfill our purpose In suppli-
eating you to offer your prayers to the
most high on behalf of the natives Of the
Philippine islands. and in asking you TO
do all that can be done TO protect and
help them in this supreme moment Of
their history and TO assure them their
liberty and protected personality, TO
which they are entitled by their loyalty
and their services 10 the American cause.
The noble and humanitarian republic of
the United States of North America
comes to us I'm our work Of political and
social redemption We are deeply
thankful for the union and amity of the
Fllippinos and Americans. May they
be imperishable and bear the seal Of
evangelic brotherhood which may be inn
pressed upon II by the respected prelates
