DIVORCE QUESTION
 FINALLY SETTLED
House of Deputies Change Ac-
 ton of Yesterday
REMAINS AS IS AT PRESENT
Committee on State of Church Makes Report Showing Increased h. come, But Lack of candI-
 dates for Ministry.

San Francisco, October 15.-The trouble some question of marriage and divorce was settled today for another three years. The greatest fight of the conven- ton has been over section 1 of canon 36 virtually forbidding the remarriage of a divorced person by priest of the church. This had passed the house of bishops and been adopted by yea and nay vote in committee of the whole house of depu- ties.
 When the committees voted. not only on the troublesome fourth section but on the entire canon, it was rejected as a whole.
 Canon 37, which provides for the dis ciplining of persons marrying again af- ter being divorced, met with a similar fate. The house of bishops passed an amendment to article 10 of the constitu- ton permitting modifying forms of wor- ship, which in spirit is similar to the famous Huntington amendment recently defeated.
 The bishops have yet to act before the stitution. A general mass meeting was
 
 at Trinity today.
 House of Deputies.
 The house of deputies, in committee of the whole, rejected the two substitutes for canon 37 relating to the disciplining of persons marrying again after divorce, which had been adopted and handed down by the house of bishops.
 President Lindsay appointed the fol- lowing members on the part of the house of deputies on the joint committee on the subject of translation of bishops from one diocese to another:
 Rev. Dr. Mcconnell, Brooklyn; Rev. John Henry Hopkins, Chicago; Rev. Dr. Seymour. Connecticut; J. Grosvenor, New York; John w. Randall, Maryland; {; William A. Adams, Western New York.
 The following were chosen as members from the house of deputies on the com mittee on prohibited degrees:
 Rev. S. M. Olmst cad, Pennsylvania i; Rev. William c. Dewitt, Chicago; Bay ard Cutting, New York; Edward L. Tenn pie. Vermont; R. L. Wiggins, Tennessee. Rev. pr. Carrie of Albany, of the com mittee on general theological seminary reported very satisfactory financial con- dition in the institution.

Barnett Case Throws No Light.

sThroughout the length and breadth of testimony relating to the death of Bar nett there is not a fact which throws any light upon the intent with which the poison was sent to Cornish or which serves to support or strengthen the in- ferences as to intent which may be drawn from the evidence tending to show that the defendant sent the poison to Cornish
 Further on the court says: Assuming Barnett to have been killed by the de- fendant, the crime has its own motive intent and plan. This is equally true of the crime charged in the indictment The mere fact that the two crimes are paral- Tel as to the methods and means em- ployed in their execution does not serve to identify the defendant as the poisoner of Mrs. Adams unless his guilt of the lat ter crime may be inferred from it's simi- larity to the former. Such an inference might be justified if 1t had been shown conclusively that the defendant had killed Barnett and that no other person could have killed Mrs. Adams. But no such evidence was given. The evidence tended to show that the defendant had the knowledge. skill and material to produce the poison which was sent to Cornish But he was not shown to be the only per- son possessed of the skill and material Indeed, 1t Is common knowledge that there are many such persons. Therefore the naked similarity of these crimes proves nothing"
