DEATHTHEN MARRIAGE
Majority Report of Committee on
conon on Divorce and Marriage to
Episcopal Convention Favors No Re-
marrying While Former Partner is

Alive.
Boston, Oct. 11.-The proposed new
canon on marriage and divorce was
up for discussion before the general
convention of the Episcopal church to-
day. The committee on canons sub
mitted a lengthy report. The present
canon on the subject permits the mar
r,are of the innocent person in a dl-
vorce case wherein the decree was IS
sued by the civil courts on the ground
of infidelity. The majority report ia
yors a. new law to prevent the remar-
riage Of any divorced person while
the former partner is living. Ihe
minority report leaves unchanged that
part of the old canon permitting the
rernarriage Of an innocent person IN the
case of infidelity, and provides for
greater safeguards in the shape OF
civil court testimony.

A Kuropatkin's order of the day

/ already in progress. Indeed the latest
newspaper dispatches say the artillery
duel lasted thruout Sunday on the CEN

ese are everywhere retiring before the
Russian advance. The statement that
Kuropatkin is moving on each side OF
the railroad, in order to have an easy
line Of communication would Indicate
his intention to make frontal at
tack, which, with the possible turning
movement from the west, where the
ground is open but there the river bars
the way, and no decisive victory is
seemingly possible unless he can
reach the Japanese line.
No official news has been received
from the front as to what is happen
ing today, but portion of Kuropat-
kin's dispatch, dated last night, and
given to the public, showed that his
army was steadily pushing forward,
that the Japanese were gradually
withdrawing their outposts, which
were only cannot shot distant. There
has been almost constant skirmishes,
which at almost any moment may de-
velop into battle
There is no confirmation of the Jap

Oyama's front has been rapidly mar
rowing during the last few days, under
pressure of the Russian advance and
now does not exceed twenty miles, ex-
tending from the Yentai mines west
