CHURCHMEN MEET
Triennial Convention of the Episcopal
Church Being Held at Boston-Arch-
bishop Of Canterbury in Attendance
---lm,ortant Convention.

Boston. Oct. 5.---Prelates from five
continents and from distant islands OF
the sea, representatives of Anglican
communion thruout the world, particf-
pated in the opening ceremonies OF the
triennial general convention of the
Episcopal church here today For the
f;rst time in ecclesiastical history
Archbishop of Canterbury, primate or
all England and metropolitan, was
nresent at a formal assembly of the
American Episcopal body. He was re-
ceived with all the honors due his rank.
The convention is regarded as this
most important ever held by the Epls-
copal denomination. The house OF
bishops and house of deputies, the leg
islative bodies, will devote three weeks
to consideration of proposed legisla-
ton. Right Rev. Doane, Albany, N. T.,
delivered the opening sermon, which
was a, plea for broadening the church
sphere
He dealt at length with the divisions,
of Christendom. He referred to the
barriers which separate the Anglican
church. both Catholic and Protestant,
from other denominations. He con-
sidered how barriers might be elimln-
ated in some degree. He thought an
attempt should be made to find the
starting point of disa reement ana
thus be in position to each a better
understanding with the church OF
Rome and various Protestant bodies.
Recognition of papal supremacy, he
declared, was impossible, but he
thought the church might readily rec
ognize the primacy of the bishop OF
Rome on account of the antiquity OF
the Roman see. rs
In the J ~scopal llurches of the city
there w. we'll attended celebrations
of the hoy communion this morning.

NJ L. Temple, Of Osceola, attorney
for DR.. Crofford, of Lamont, who was
at one time convicted of murder in the
second degree for causing the death OF
a young girl at his "sanitarium" states
that he believes Crofford will be
cleared. He may never be tried a.

in the case when first tried and gave
a new one. Now a petition has been
sent to the board of supervisors by
several thousand residents of Decatur
county asking the board to refuse to
incur any further expense in the case.
Des Moines people will be disap-
pointed because of the change in the
Fairbanks itinerary. but good politi-
clans say that it is better to have the
big meeting at Marshalltown than IN
Des Moines. A short meeting will be
held here which will be satisfactory.
1t is almost impossible to get up big
meeting in Des Moines and there was
really very little desire for one.

Situation at Mukden Not Much
Changed.

st. Petersburg, Oct. 5-Lieutenant
General Stoessel says the Japanese
losses were 10000 during the attacks
1 on Port Arthur from September 10 to
p, He reports no incident occrred
from the 2ad to the 30th, excepting
outpost skirmishing.
Steossel adds that practically MOTH
ing remained Of the water works re-
doubts when the surviving Russians
rescued them.
st. Petersburg, Oct. 5.-Military
critics at st. Petersburg share in the
general uncertainty as TO how to size
up the situation at the front If Oyama
makes his anticipated advance. They
seem to agree that strong screening
movement is in progress Immediately
east of Liao Yang, that probably
feint will be made from the west, that
the tactics Of the Japanese at Llao
Yang will be repeated and that Kuroki
will try a wide f1anking movement from
the east. Some critics point out that
conditions at Port Arthur may force
= change of Oyama,s plan of campaign.
Continued failure of the attacks on tho
fortress and the enormous losses sus-
tanned by the beseigers, they think, may
compel Oyama to dispatch some vet
eran troops from the Manchurian army
to Nodzu's support as the reinforce
nents arriving at Port Arthur are
mostly reserve men. Unstinted praise
IL bestowed on General Stoessel for
the heroic defense made by the garri-
son which naturally is increasing the
hoIe that the fortress may hold out.
In the meantime Kuropatkin is receiv-
ing reinforcements, especially the ar
tillery. Nevertheless all experts ex-
press great doubts whether kuropat-
kin contemplates more than a passive
resistance at Mukden where, they say,
the Typographical conditions are un-
favorable for defense.
The general conclusion is the jap
anese forces will show their hands in
mulating that Japanese officers are at
the head of bands of Chinese bandits
operating on Kuropatkin's right flank
end continued reports of agitation
among the Chinese, spread by anti
foreign propaganda, are increasing the
feeling of anxiety. These factors will
soon have to be seriously reckoneo
with by Russia.

The death of the postmaster general
came as the result really of a success
sion Of sinking spells due to weak
heart. that enfeebled the sick man un-
til finally the heart literally gave out.
Stricken with an attack of heart
trouble last Wednesday. his condition
ra pidly became extremely grave. A
succession of sinking spells of increas-
ing severity and depressing effect fol-
lowed, but the remarkable manner I'm
which Mr.. Payne rallied from these
spells and the responses of the heart
action to treatment, gave little tem-
porary encouragement. His close re1a-
tiyes We're summoned to Washington
as; early as last Thursday night.
Never in recent years robust. Mr..
Payne was unable to withstand the
shock of the sinking spell, and last
Friday, when he had two sinking
spells, it was believed that he was
rapidly approaching the end. While
moderate doses of heart remedies sur
feed at first. it became necessary by
Sunday to give much more powerful
stimulants. and the doses were given
in greater quantities than on any pre-
vious day.
Mrs. Payne the devoted wife. re-
mained constantly near her husband,
rendering every possible aid, comfort
ing him and hoping for the best. She
bore I'D with remarkable fortitude. and
not once did she leave their apart
m,ants. Thruout official Washing
ton and in private circles in which
Mr.. Payne moved, deep solicitude was
manifested. President Roosevelt, whose
friendship for Mr.. Payne extends back
number of years, was a daily caller
at the hotel and was kept constantly
advised of Mr.. Payne's condition. Mrs.
Roosevelt was unremitting in her in
quires and called sometimes twice

Ware makes this statement and adds
that applications for pensions are be-
