A SHTFTY SHEPARD.

When Mr.. Shepard is talking in Tammany
Hall, with one eye on voters Of Democratic
proclivities whose general views with respect
TO national politics are similar to his own, he
thinks 1t advisable TO forecast a rehabilitation
of his demoralized party under his personal au-
spices and the fostering care of his administra-
tion as Mayor of New-YOrk. When Mr.. Shepard
is talking with representatives Of the Bryan
Democratic League he finds it extremely incon-
venient 10 promise renewal either of the sup
port which he gave Bryan in 1900 or of the hos
tility which he conspicuously manifested tow
ard him in 1896. In the latter case he does
mot believe it to be expedient TO mix national
politics with local issues" In the former case
he believes 1t TO be altogether expedient to pro-
vide precisely such a mixture for the consump-
ton of citizens who were formerly pleased to
hear themselves described as Shepard Demo-
Gratis and whose votes are a matter of deep
concern to Mr.. Crokers candidate in this mu-
nicipal campaign.
If Mr.. Shepard can stand this sort of thing
there are many who cannot.
New-York tribune., 1901-10-20
TIE EPISCOPAL GENERAL CONVENTION.

A pathetic interest attaches to the valedictOry
address of the Rev. DIR. w. r. Huntington, Of
this city, At the closing session OF the Episcopal
General Convention in San Francisco this last
week For the last fifteen years the rector Of
Grace Church has been the champion and
spokesman in the Episcopal Church of the So
called Lambeth quadrilateral, four comprehen-
sive propositions on which it was declared that
the Church was willing to enter into relations
Of organic unity with the rest of Christendom.
And as q practical illustration Of what these
propositions meant he introduced-in 1894, we
believe-the following amendment TO the con-
stitution:
But provision may be made by canon for the
temporary of other forms and directories Of
worship by congregations not in union with this
Church who are willing TO accept the spiritual
oversight of the bishop of the diocese or the
missionary district.
For the third time this amendment has just
been defeated and DR.. Huntington made a
speech surrendering his leadership of the meas
ure in the following words:
1 entertain the same faith in the final victory
of this measure that 1 have entertained.
individuals may be rebuked for being too pre-
sumptuous. Great measures may be. as the
politicians say, turned down for a time, but they
cannot be turned down for all time. You have
chosen the course of the greatest question before

and in doing 1 surrender the leadership which
so many OF you graciously accorded me. 1 give
UP the torch. My measure has been known as
an iridescent dream. For the present Ii is de-
feated had hoped the Columbia might win,
but ii has been the Irish boat.

efforts to make his Church more catholic in
spirit and temper. the work which he has so
ably accomplished has not been in vain The
sessions Of the General Convention just ended
furnish evidence that the ''Oxford-Milwaukee'
school of thought does not control the Church.
His amendment came within one vote OF pas
sage, and will certainly come up again in the
next convention. The proposition TO change the
name OF the Church was postponed to the next
convention, and the discussion over 1t indicates
little likelihood of it's passage. SO also, the
attempt to enact a more stringent canon OF
divorce which was championed by the extreme
High Churchmen, was shelved until the next
convention; and the scheme to establish pro-
vincial system for the Church, with primate
and a number of archbishops, apparently died
a-borning. In a word, the convention has
refused to indorse the radical programme OF
the High Churchmen, not by actually condemn
ing it, but by postponing it for future consider
alton. This course will seem to most people
wise and statesmanlike for the opinion OF the
Church to-day TO the questions at issue Is
more or less in a state OF fluX, and a decision
either way would have inf1amed and
angered a large number of members. The real
tendencies of the Church, whether they point to
Catholicism Professionalism, will have an
opportunity to unfold themselves during the
next Inree years, anu IL tuey sun ACLIdlh
uncrystalliZed the convention can again post
pone action on them. There is always, more
over, the chance that some of the questions at
issue will solve themselves through the opera
ton of time and evolution rather than by legis
lation-a process which in the past has so often
disposed Of the Church's burning issues.
The action Of the convention in appointing
missionary bishops for Porto Rico and the
Philippines will not command universal assent
in the Church. 1t will be objected that while
the present missionary operations of the Church
are seriously handicapped by lack Of funds it
is unwise TO assume the work of Outstanding
peoples who are already members Of another
religious communion. This view is brought out
in an open letter to Mr. Brent, the Bishop-elect
of the Philippines, by the Rev. a. S. Crapsey,
of Rochester, in which he says:
1t is impossible that any new form of Chris
tianity should take root in that soil. Experience
teaches that the seed OF the Reformation is ster-
lie in lands long under the influence of the Latin
race. Our missions have been barren in Mexico
and in South America. and they Will be barren
in the Philippines in Cuba and in Porto Rico.
Inasmuch as the Episcopal Church comprises
less than 2 per cent of the population of the
United States, he believes that it ought to
devote itself to home mission work and cease
attempting the conversion either Of foreign
heathens or foreign Christians.
New-York tribune., 1901-10-20
THE ABDrcTTOy OF MISS STONE.

Fear is expressed by THE London Globe"
that the safety Of Miss Stone, the kidnapped
missionary, is seriously compromised by the
attitude of the American Consul General at
Constantinople. Mr. Dickinson, it appears, is
convinced that the kidnappers are members Of
the notorious Macedonian Committee Of Bull
garia, an organization existing and acting under
the tolerance and sanction if not the co-opera-
tion of the Bulgarian Government He believes
that the Bulgarian Government could, If 1t
would. effect the release of Miss Stone And
so, while he would not hesitate TO pay ransom
TO ordinary brigands in order to save and rescue
a precious life, he demurs at paying it practi-
cally TO the government of professedly civil
ized and Christian state and prefers 10 seek
Miss Stones release by bringing diplomatic
pressure TO bear upon the government at Sofia,
which he holds directly indirectly respon-
sible for her abduction.
In taking this view Of the case and in acting
upon it Mr.. Dickinson undoubtedly assumes 4
grave responsibility. If through his hesitation
10 pay the ransom her life should be forfeited
many would hold him responsible for her death.
1t would doubtless be most exasperating and
humiliating 10 pay piratical tribute practically
10 the government of Bulgaria, yet even that
would be preferable TO the sacrifice OF devoted
woman's life We must, however, trust some
discretion. Mr.. Dickinson is a man of humane
and ehiyalrous impulses who is just as eager
TO save Miss Stone as Is any of her friends at
home Beyond that. he is on the ground and
understands the circumstances Of the case far
better than any one here or in England. He is
also a man of shrewd, sound judgment who
NAV confidently be trusted TO do what is best.
IL is simply inconceivable that he will take any
needless risks in the matter will act other
wise than as a chivalrous and prudent man,
aiming above all else, at the rescue of this
imperilled woman and at the honor OF the
American name.
1t is TO be hoped that there will be no vain
illusions upon the subject at any Of the three
capitals which are believed TO be more or less
directly concerned in the case. Mr.. Dickinson,
as the Official representative OF the United
States Government on the ground, is reported
TO be convinced that the brigands are members
of the Macedonian Committee, acting under the
authority OF that committee There is no escap-
ing the conclusion that the Bulgarian Govern
ment is morally and legally responsible for that
committee and its dOings, seeing that for years
IL has been countenancing it and refusing to
suppress IL or 10 restrain it's activities. The
Turkish Government, too, as the suzerain over
Bulgaria is in a measure responsible for the
Bulgarian Government And in a moral sense
that responsibility is largely shared by the Rus
