San Francisco, Oct 16.-The
troublesome question of marriage and
divorce was set to rest for another
three years yesterday. BY the action
of it's deputies, the Episcopal conven-
ton rejected both of the proposed
canons on the subject passed by the
bishops. The greatest fight of the
convention was over section of canon
sc, virtually forbidding the remar-
rage of a divorced person by priest
of the church. This was passed by
the bishops and adopted by yea and
nay vote in committee of the whole of
the deputies When the committe
rose and reported it's work to the
house the entire canon was rejected
as a whole,
Canon 81, which provides for the
disciplining of persons marrying again
after being divorced, met with a SINH
lar fate.
The deputies passed an amendment
to article 10 of the constitution per-
hitting modified forms of worship, in
spirit similar to the Huntington
amendment recently defeated. The
amendment, though credited to DR..
McKim of Washington, was in reality
presented to the convention of three
years ago by Dr.. Huntington The
bishops have yet to act before the
amendment can become part of the
constitution. The bishops appointed
members of a standing committee on
capital and labor to investigate the
subject with view to the peaceful
settlement of disagreements between
employers and workingmen and report
at the general convention.

ALLISON OUT
FOR REVISION
IOWA SENATOR OPENS HAWKEYE
CAMPAIGN.
TARIFF CHANGES NEEDED
Says Changes Should be Made but
Only to Benefit of American Mar
kets-European Trade Can Hardly
be Extended Believes Action on
Pending Treaties Will be Taken.

Tama, Iowa, Oct. Ex-senator Ali
son opened his part of the Iowa cam
paign in a two hours speech here last
night. He opened with tribute to
Mckinley and an expression of con-
fidence in Roosevelt. After referring
to protection and sound money as the
causes of national prosperity, he said:
Il do not wish to be understood as
saying that the tariff duties On i'm
ported articles should not be subject
to change. But when they are
changed it should be with reference
to the advantage of our markets over
those of other countries. These du-
ties ought to be changed as oondi-
tons change, so as to help our people
to better markets abroad, and also
for the benefit Of consumers products
in our country, whereby, if monopolies
are created, they can be checked and
reasonable prices only exacted,
Notifications in the tariff laws
must be expected, but such modifica
tons must not be accomplished at the
cost of our markets to the good of for
eign markets. We must not lose sub
stance in seeking a shadow. The
most fertile field is in the south and
west. We can hardly expect to in
crease our market in Europe
Referring to reciprocity, Senator
Allison said:
"The treaties now pending VIII be
promptly considered and if practicable
and so far as practicable other treaties
will be made, and when made it may
be assumed will be promptly ratified
by the senate, and promptly acted up
on by the two houses in passing laws
to carry them into execution"

FIVE BIG BANKS
MAY CONSOLIDATE

Cleveland, O., Oct. 16.-Five of the
largest banks of this city, the Bankers
National, Century National, Cleveland
National, Metropolitan National and
American Exchange National, contem-
plate consolidation as means Of
economy. If affected, the business
will be done by one set of clerks. It
is not the intention to lump the COM
bined capital of the five institutions,
but to have one institution with a
million and half capitalization. If
but three enter the deal the others will
iquidate and turn over a half million
as their share of the capitalization and
divide the remaining assets among the
the stockholders as dividends. The
matter has gone so far that a commit
tee from each bank is working on the
proposition.

Roland B. Molineux is in Auburn
prison under sentence of death for
having caused the death of Mrs. Kate
Adams. The trial brought out the
fact that the woman was killed by
drinking poison which had been given
her by Harry Cornish, who thought it
was bromo settler Cornish, it was
known, had received the bottle of sup
posed bromo through the mail, and
the prosecution succeeded, by circum-
stantial evidence, to get a verdict of
murder for MolineuX.
The case was one of the most des-
perate legal battles New York has
seen for years, and another legal bat
tie will probably be fought.
