Philadelphia, Dec. 30 Interest in
TIE case Of DR.. Irvine against Bishop
Talbot yesterday was largely conferred
in the question as to whether the pro-
ceedirgs brought by Irvine be I'M
canonical after the first OF the new
year. The point, raised by DIR. Fulton,
editor of the Church Standard that
the board of inquiry will have no pow,
er to proceed because the canon under
which the board was named will be SUI
perseded by a new canon January /,
was. discussed by lawyers:.and cl rgy-
men and wide difference of opinion
prevails. Some held that the board
being regularly organized under the
present canon it's Jurisdiction con
tinues until it has disposed OF the bus
mess for which it was created.
On the other hand Francis A. Lewis,
who is versed in ecclesiastical law and
who was member of the committee
on canons at the last general cOnven.
ton of the Episcopal church, believes
that DR.. Fultonss point is well taken.
r. ]. Frederick Jenkinson, one OF
the presenters in the case, said last
night that he believed nothing would
be done until the board of inquiry met
and that the members would then
decide whether they have jurisdiction,
If they decided that they have not it
would then be only matter OF short
time before proceedings would be insti-
tuted under the new canon.
