STILL AT VARIANCE
EPISCOPAL HOUSES CANNOT AGREE
 ON DIVORCE CANON.
Issue Will Re Taken Before the Dep- uties This Week for the ThirI Time in the Boston Con-
 ventiOn.

Boston Oct. 22 At the close of the fifth day of the Episcopal Convention the two houses are still at variance on the subject of divorce. The issue will be taken before the Deputies next week for the third time during the convention, the Bishops having de- clined to accept without amendment the compromise measure adopted by the Deputies on Thursday.
 The amendment to the divorce canon originally agreed on by the Bishops forbade the remarriage of any divorced person. the Deputies declining to alter the old canon which permitted the re- marriage of the innocent person in a divorce for infidelity at any time.
 As a compromise, the deputies later, by an almost unanimous vote, amend ed the original canon so that the Inno- cent person could not be remarried in the church within one year after the divorce, the court records ana other satisfactory evidence to be placod be- fore the Bishops to show that the ap- plicant was really innocent. Tho amendment also exonerated cIergymen from all eensure should they decline to perform the ceremony.
 The House of Bishops, by a vote of 30 to 2S, amended the compromise so that the bishop of diocese will not be required to issue license for the remarriage of the innocent person even should the court evidence be sat- isfactory but will be merely called on the declare in writing that in his judgment the case of the applicant conforms to the requirement. of the canon. The Bishops also amended the clause referring to the administrations of sacrament so that If any priest is in doubt as to the regularity of the marriage of any person he shall refer the case to the Bishop.

Declines Their Endorsement of His
 Candidacy for Congress.
 New York, Oct 22.---CharIes A. Towne, the Democratic nominee for Congress in the Fourth Congressional District, sent letter today to the Executive Com mittee of the Peoples Party declining that party's endorsement Of him for Congress.
 After expressing his appreciation of the compliment shown In the endorse ment, Mir. Towne says.
 T am a Democrat. I impugn no mans motives. recognize every citi- zen's right to exercise his political functions according to his own con- science, but am profoundly of the opinion that in this campaign the fun- damental principles of our republic are at stake and that vote for any na- tioral ticket other than Parker and Da- wis is at least half a vote in favor of the abandonment of the doctrine of our national life. Under these circum- stances I do not think myself Justified in accepting formal tender of sup port which applies discrimination against the balance of the Democratic ticket in whose success lies the only hope of defeating the Republican Par ty."
 It was officially stated at Tammany Hall that Representative Sulzer and Mir. Laughlin. candidates for Congress. have also declined the Popullst en- dorsement.

St. Petersburg, Oct. 22.--t11:04 p. m.) With the closing of the week the semi panic produced by the heavy re- verse sustained by General Kuropat- kin's army last week has in great measure disappeared and there Is n much more cheerful feeling pervading the war office. The general disaster which threatened to engulf the Man churian army has oeen averted by the result of the ten days of almost con. tinuous fighting which tonight is q draw. General Kuropatkin has again dis4 played consummate skill in preventing Field Marshal Oyama from reaping the fruits of victory. By withdrawing liis shattered left wing under shelter of the right center, he succeeded in the gigantic task of taking 30.000 wounded of the field of battle, and, more than this. according to all indications, he reorganized and reformed his broken Iegions and again confronts the Japa- nese across the Shakhe River.
 More Fighting Imminent.
 resunption of the, conflict on a large scale is believed to be imminent.
 That Kuropatlxin, after losing close to 10000 men, was able to resume the offense within a fortnight constitutes 6 feat in military history. There was an impression early In tue week that Kuropatkin was concentrating his forces on his right and center to avoid being driven off the line of the railroad without having embarrassed the retire ment of his left. but now he has had ample time to withdraw and the situa- ton shows more determination than ever to secure strong advanced posi- tions across the Shakhe.

Peoria. III. Oct. 22s--The mystery surrounding the death of Mrs. Nellie Thomason remains unsoived.
 The evidence brought out at tho Coroner's inquest was that the womar, walked to the train at tho station in this city with but slight assistance rom one of the employees of the road ana that when she arrived at Lacon. she summoned a hack and made her way to the homo of her mother, sever- al blocks away, without assistance. Furthermore she did not summon d physician until sixteen hours later.
 IT the injuries inflicted by young Higgins were of the fatal nature charged. his friends ask how 1t was possible for the woman to have zone home practically unaided and to have waited so long before summoning | physician. ~ Another Name Mentioned.

JAP OFFICERS INHUMAN.
Russian story Says Men COmDIain of
 III Treatment,

Mukden. Oct. 22.-(6 p. m.)-An As- sociated Press correspondent at the front says quiet continues. Scouts are actively at work and their operations lead to some skirmishing and to oc- caslonaI artillery exchanges. but noth- ing of importance. Japanese continue to come in in twos and threes and give themselves up.
 Some from the goth and 41st regi- ments say that they are reservists sent from Japan to fill up the gaps in Gen eral Nodsu's army. They complain Of inc inhuman conduct of their officers and say the situation in Japan Is far from good They predict that compli- cations will occur before spring.
 The taxes have been greatly in- creased and the discontent of the peo- ple is growing owing to the refusal of inc authorities to permit news of the war to be published. As evidence of this fact are cited the reports of att tempts to wreck military trains near Yokohama.

S ashed forward slightly and the idea hat operations contemplate only rear guard actions seemed negatived.
 Fortifying on the Hun.
 Nevertheless. dispatches to the Asso- ciated Press from Mukden today say that Kuropatkin has been fortifying positions on the Hun River behind him which might indicate that he proposes only to make an active defense below Mukden.
 The general stan acts rather mys- teriously. It simply attributes tine ces- sation of operations to the natural ex- haustion of both sides. but does not offer a clue to what it anticipates. It is significant. however. with what sat- isfaction the news of the capture of the Shakhe River and the Mandarin road was received.
 The taking of the town is regarded as an important strategical gain, plac- ing General Kuropatkin in complete mastery of both sides of the Shakhe River between the railroad and the Mukden and Bentsiaputse roads. The only point on the left bank of the Shakhe River remaining in the hands of the Japanese Is Lamuntung, within a rife shot of the railroad bridge.
 Tremendojus Rattle Probable.
 The heavy concentration of both Russians and Japanese between the Mandarin road and the railroad makes certain tremendous collision at this point The Associated Press learns that portion of the sth army corps. which had reached Harbin. Is hurrying southward
 While the Japanese evidently are de- termined to pursue the policy followed by them since the beginning of the war of concealing the extent of their losses, the war oflce believes that their casu- alties must be at least tnree-fourths as great as those of the Russians, prob ably in the neighborhood of 3o,000.
 The weather has again become clear. but Is very cold and the soldiers are re- ported to be suffering.

 Tokio, Oct. 22.--t9 q. m.)--The armies of Oyama and Kuropatkin continue to confront each other. but neither has assumed the aggressive.
 According to a report from the Jap anese Manchurian headquarters. tele- graphed yesterday, it is said that the Russians are massing heavy force against the Right Army, but the pur- pose of this force is not indicated. The report says:
 Tn the direction of our right army 200 of the enemy's cavalry crossed the Taitse River. They seem to have ad- vanced to the neighborhood of Kaoku- anchai and 1t is reported that 2O,000 Russians are assembling in the vicinity of Kaotai Pass.

What happened under the low tariffs of 1846 and 1851? Was there any lack of a home market then? On the con- trary, Senator Morrill, of Vermont, the father of the Morrill, tariffs of the war period, said in public debate that the year 1860 which fell within this period was "one of the most prosperous In our history" This is also the testimony of Professor Taussig in his tariff history of the United States, not alone as the year 1860, but as to that period gener- ally. The same authority tells us that our cotton spinning industry never grew more rapidly or prospered more than under the Walker tarin of lS46.
 The truth Is that the tariff benefici- aries and the stand patters' have abandoned arguments. They virtually say to us now that high protective tariff is a good thing per SC and ought to last forever and by this they mean the present Dingley tariff. So far have the old arguments been aoandoned that if ia not necessary now for par tIcuIar industry, in order to get protec- tion. to show that 1t cannot stand alone and make fair profits on its own mer- its. - l,u,.

REGARDED AS A cANARD.
Not Believed Baltic Fleet Is Going to
 Far East.

St. Petersburg, Oct. 22.-(1:45 a. m.) Although 1t is impossible at this hour to secure an authoritative statement re- garding the London St. James Gazette's report that Russia intends sending the Black Sea fleet to the Far East and with that object in view is bringing pressure to bear upon the porte to se- cure permission to permit the fleet to pass out through the DardaneIles. it is regarded as canard in well in- formed circles.
 A small faction of the admiralty at one time did favor defiance of the treaty of Paris, but it was strongly turned down and when the subject was preached at the time the Associated Press was authoritatively informed that nothing of the kind was every se- riously contemplated.
