final session of the Army of the Cumber-
land, the society's officers are directed TO
endeavor to bring the project about. The

pirate, since, besides the Army of the Cum

tomac under Hooker and the Army Of the
Ohio under Scho1eld and Burnside all had
some part in the Tennessee operations.

FAR FROM ADJUSTMENT
MIR. TRUAX'S RESIGNATION DID NOT
ETTLE LABOR TROUBLES.
Dispute Over the Chicago Cornerstone
Now Threatens to Involve the
Entire Fall Festival.

CHICAGO, Sept. 27.-Charles Truax for
mally resigned to-day as president of the
Fall Festivities Association. The general
committee of the association, after a stormy
session lasting two hours. refused to accept
his resignation. but Mr.. Truax informed
his associates that he would under no cir
cumstances continue to serve as president.
The committee declined to fill the office of
president, but created the position of d.
rector general of the festival and selected
Laverne w. Noyes for the place. The I'M
Outstanding Is that Mr.. Noyes in the future
will act as the directing head of the I'M
dertaking. Mr.. Truax remains as a member
of the general committee, but it is said will
take no part in the management.
The labor leaders were at first inclined TO
resent the action Of the general committee
in refusing to accept Mr.. Truax's r~esigna-
ton. They seemed 20 think that perhaps
his retirement was but temporary, and
thought that by leaving the office of presi-
dent vacant he might be able to resume the
active management of the festival at any
time he might desire. When the conditions
were explained to the labor men later, how-
ever. they appeared satisfied with the re-
organization.
Beyond the retirement of Mr.. Truax no
progress has been made toward settling the
labor dispute. United States Attorney Be.

the federal committee declared that unless

advocated the use of dynamite in spreading tenn

breweries. declaring that violence would furnish
the only means by which the new society could

not agree with the opinions Of the delegate from
Missouri and there were decided declarations
against the proposition. The new society came
into being full-fedged. Committees on constitu-
ton and rules were appointed formally, but in
reality they had been in existence and had their
work completed before the convention assem-

vention of the Protestant Episcopal Church
CT the diocese of New York began here to-
day in the Church of the Incarnation.
Bishop Potter presided. The convention
promises TO have some very interesting
features. notably that of the election of the
standing committee. This committee recon-
mends the applicants for ordination into
the Protestant Episcopal ministry. The
present committee is that which recon-
mended the ordination of the Rev. DIR.
Charles A. Briggs. over whose ordination
there was so much discussion.
A large part of Bishop Potter's address
was devoted to the question of divorce and
the remarriage of divorced persons. The
bishop commented upon the increasing num-
Der OF such marriages in the diocese and
in the country at large and the growing
disregard of the Sabbath both in the United
States and Europe. He also urged the ne
cessity of uniformity I'm the laws of the sew
eral States upon the subject of marriage
and divorce.
The afternoon session was devoted chiefly
to the reading and approving of a large
number of reports. Bishop Potter at the
morning session, when he invited the bish-
ops of central Pennsylvania and western
Texas to the platform, remarked that he
might make a trip TO Honolulu this fall and
that some of his associate bishops might
have to look after his offices. Rev. DIR.
Charles A. Briggs arrived at the convention
late In the afternoon. He took nc part in
the proceedings.
