New York. Nov. H.-When the Cen
eral Conference of the Protestant
Episcopal Church meets in San Fran
cisco next October, three new canons
on the subject of marriage and di-
vorce will he placed before the body
for its consideration. Should these
canons become the law of the Episco-
pal Church. through the approval OF
the General Conference, then the Epis-
copal Church will have pronounced it's
anathema against divorce, and more
particularly against the re marriage
OF divorced persons while another
party to the divorce still is lin life.
IN HANDS or COMMITTEE.
The subject of marriage and divorce
came IN for Il good deal OF attention
at the hands of the General Episcopal
Conference in 1898; SO much, i'm fact.
that committee Of twelve was APP
pointed for the purpose of taking the
matter under consideration and maxi
Ing such recoWmendation to the next
Conference OF that body IS would pave
the way for changes in the present
tcncts OF the church on these subjects.
THREE CANYONS DEFEATED.
This committee after having met a
year aGo, when they failed TO reach
an agreement looking toward reform,
again went into session to-day. The
committee spent the greater portion of
the day Wrestling with the problem be
fore thcm. At tho forenoon session no
thing of definite nature was accomp-
lshed. This afternoon the committee
resumed work ana rs the members
came out at the close of this session
it was announced that the conference
of the committee had been adjourned
sine die, and that three canons dealing
with the subject of the Conference had
been drafted.
THE FIRST CANON.
The first canon adopted is entitled
"Holy matrimony ana impediments
thereto" The fun text OF this canon
is as follows:
section l-IIoly matrmony de-
fined.
"(A) Holy matrimony is an estate of
life which for the purposes Of this
canon Is sufficiently defined in the form
appointed Tor the colonization OF
matimony in this ehurch.
"CD) The solemnization of holy ma
trimony is q service where the mutual
consent OF the parties is given in the
presence OF Il minister, who then pro-
nounces them in the name Of the holy
Trinity to be man and wife.
section =. Empediments TO matri-
mony defined"
This section defines the impediments
OF consanfalinity and affinity as stated
in the books OF LevitcuS and Dcutcro-
nony.
THE SECOND CANON.
The second canon drafted deals with
the subject OF the ''solemnization of
holy matrimony." 1t is sub divided in
four sections. as follows:
Section !, 1T shall bc-tha-altV of ALI

may be required by the law OF this
church and civil authority.
NO minister shall solemnize mar
riage without the presence of Witness
es. nor without witnesses to whom the
parties are personally known, except in
Il case i'll which it is impossible for
'such witnesses TO be secured. No min
ister shall solemnize the marriage of
any person not identified to his salts
faction.
Section 4. No minister shall solemn
ize marriage between any two persons
unless nor until. by inquiry. he shall

THE THIRD CANON.

While the above two canons erect
new barriers as safeguard against IL
legal marriages and prohibit remar-
rage by any Episcopal minister of any
party to n divorce suit, whether guilty
or innocent. the third canon goes one
step further and excludes from all
means of grace within the dispensa-
ton of the church any divorced person
VINO shall have remarked and be living
with the husband or wife. as the case
may be. while the other party TO the
divorce still is in life. This canon,
which, however. applies only to the
offending party of n divorce. practical
~ tends to outlaw the offender as far
as church fellowship goes, and provides
for his readoption in the fold only on
the condition that he come truly pen
itent and separate from the party 10
the second marriage. or If he should
happen to be in immediate danger OF
death and show the spirit OF true re-
pentance.
This, canon is sub divided into three
sections. as follows:
Section !. No person divorced for
causes arising after marriage and
marrying again during the life time OF
the other party to the divorce shall
be admitted TO baptism. dr confirma-
ton, or received to holy communion.
except when pcnitent and separated
from the other party to the subsequent
marriage or when pcnitent or in inn
mediate danger of death, but this ca
non shall not apply to the innocent
party in a divorce for the cause of
adultery.
Section .. No person shall be denied
baptism or confirmation or the holy
communion under this canon until
after tho minister shall have given to
the person due and sufficient notice OF
such intended denial and of the right
of appeal therefrom as hereinafter.
permitted.
Section 3. This section provides for
appeal to the bishop of the diocese or
missionary district who. If he deems
the cause sufficient may take counsel
with two neighboring bishops and de-
eide whether there shall be any dispen
satiOn.
