THE EPISCOPAL. CONTROVERSY.

Hawaii has deep interest in the
coming Episcopal convention at San
Francisco in that the appeal of the
great body OF Episcopal communicates
here for an American church relation
will be heard and perhaps needed. AT
present the status of the church in these
Islands is peculiar. The Anglican.
Bishop Is no longer a stipendiary of
the Anglican church; he has been cut
off from his official connection with that
body: ne is at the head of See of his
own against the validity and the avail
ability which nine out of ten Of his
diocesan flock protest; and he star
in the way Of the natural and very pop
ular movement to establish the Ameri-
can church in this American Territory
save on the condition that his Bishop
ric shall be incorporated with 1T. There
is, of course, some desire among Amer1-
can Bishops to recognize Bishop Willis
Episcopal dignity and defer to it; yet
on the other hand is the consciousness
that a ministry which merely sets
churchmen by the ears and retards the
progress of the faith, is better lost than
gained. Many American Bishops also
feel that If American communicates
prefer the services to which they have
been accustomed they have right on
American soil to expect the church to
supply them and to at least permit
free choice between an American and
foreigner in the chief post of dignity.
Viewing the matter from disinter-
ested secular standpoint the Advertiser
can see no hope for the Episcopal
church in these Islands until that
church shall be AmericaniZed. Epis-
copacy was never a diocesan success
here on the English basis, for even
visiting Englishmen Of rank have been
accustomed for many years to ignore
The services conducted by the Bishop
and attend those of the congregation
with whom he is at odds. British naval
officers and men habitually seek the SER
vices conducted by MIR. Macintosh or
Mr.. osborne; and under the Hawaiian
monarchy. in Kalakaua's time Mr..
Macintosh figured in the greater court
ceremonials by preference to his eccle-
siastical chief. Meanwhile the quarrel
in the church grew to be scandal of
magnitude and it is a scandal of mag
nitude yet. We believe it will always
be one while Bishop Willis remains at
the head of an unwilling and rebellious
flock. In the meantime Episcopal prog
ress in Hawaii is a mere figure of
speech. If the church moves at all it
is sideways.
Assuming that Bishop Willis intends
to stick to his post with characteristic
obstinacy, 1t would seem to be the part
of wisdom for the American church to
leave him there, Lord Temporal of the
wind and air and of nothing tangible,
and give such Episeopalians as may
want an American ministry the privi-
lege they crave. 1t is surely, as we have
urged, favor they have q right to
ask. On their own soil they should be
able to find the services of their own
church; and no one has the right.
morally or economically speaking, to
compel them to accept the dictates of
foreign or a locally independent See.

FIRE AT HOUSTON.
Mammoth Hotel and Contents q
Total Loss.

Houston, Tex, Oct. 19.-At 2:30 O'Clock
this morning fire broke out in the rear
portion of the Hutchins house, one of
the leading hotels in Houston. The
flames spread rapidly to all parts of
the upper stories of the building, which
is a four-story structure covering more
than half a. block The guests, OF
whom the hotel was full, were aroused
by the night office force, and most of
them escaped; in fact only one fatality
is so far known to have resulted from
the fire. This was person who was
heard to cry for help, and the firemen,
looking in the direction from which the
sound came, saw man, believed to be
a guest of the hotel, but whose identity
is not known, sink back into the flames
The building is the property of Neu-
haus Bros. & Kesseler, of Schulenberg,
Tex, and is valued at about $125, 900.
The equipment also belongs to he
above firm, and is probably valued at
$5O,000 Other losses it is believed will
run the loss to about $250,000. Messrs.
T. J. and J. t. Boyle are the proprietors
of the hotel, and within the past few
months $55,000 had been expended in
remodeling and repairing the building.
1t is believed that the building and
contents will be a total loss.
