BISHOP DoANE ON DIVORCE.
Annual Address Before tahe Diocesan
Convention at ALBANY.

".
ALBANY. N. Y. November 21-Bishop
William Croswell Doane. in his annual ad-
dress today before the convention of the
diocese Of Albany, dealt with the subjects
of divorce and the ethical preaching called
for by the times.
The bishops remarks ON divorce had spe-
cial reference 40 the adoption by the gem
eral synod of the Canadian church of the
canon forbidding marriage between persons
either Of whom shall have been divorced
from one who is living at the time
IT could have wished" said the bishop,
that we, upon whom the presence Of the
pressure Of the duty is set much more
strongly than upon the Canadian church.
could have led in this movement, but l
have great heart of hope that we shall fol-
low al your next conyention. Surely 1t be-
comes us, in the face OF our sorer need 20
apply this one sure remedy, which shall ut
least rid the church of all responsibility
and lift the standard of reform to influence
public opinion and the legislation OF other
religious bodies.
On the subject of preaching called for by
the times the bishop said:
.'It Is time of strange unrest and great
upheayal ] believe that it Is the duty of
the teachers to uphold and of the laymen
of the church to illustrate the higher and
truer stands in morals and manners. Both
need mending badly; manners to put down
the irreverence, the disrespect, the flip
pancy, the vugarity, the eoarseness which
are spreading a contagion of rude and
reckless disregard of authority. OF age, or
official place, OF womanhood OF MANHOOD;
Of childhood: and morals. to preach and
teach the responsibility of trusts, the obli-
cations of conscience in corporations be-
cause they are made up OF individuals,
each one Of whom is accountable for every
corporate transaction. and the necessity of
recognizing the bounden duty of every citi-
zen to serve the state with clean ballot,
an honest administration of office and a
disinterested impersonality of judgment and
OF action"

lie expressed the opinion that life insur-
ance companies were justified in making
campaign contributions while the gold issue
was at stake. He did not care to pass upon
the justification of the companies In giving
money for state campaigns
What advantage could they get by SO
contributng?' asked Mr.. Hughes.
..They got it through me as being con-
nected with the state committee. They
would suppose would be very likely to de-
fend them at times when it was necessary;
/ never had occasion to do It. -.essss4s
Have they ever requested your support
In any matter?''
r ssThey, never have 80 -.
81 understand you to say they would ex-
now, what class of possibilities had you in
mind in saying that? To see that the legis-
lature did not enact legislation which they
thought hostile to policyholdersT
THAT is about what 1t would amount to-
"How could you control that situationf"
II could not control it.
How could you in any way influence it?"
'T might have some influence"
Through the disposition of the moneys
in the election of legislators?"
"Oh, 1 could not say that"
isn't that the way 1t really comes about,
senator, that the use of these contributions
In the election of candidates to Office puts
the candidates more or less under moral
obligation not to attack the interests sup
porting them?'
Mr.. Platt said he knew nothing about
the contributions by the Mutual Life In
surance Company and the Equitable So
ciety to the national campaign FUND IN
1895. He did not remember that there
was any cooperation between Cornelius N:
Bliss and himself during the campaigns OF
1900 and 1904. He said he knew nothing
about the contribution approximating 500
600, made by the New York Life Insurance
Company to the national committee in the
last presidential campaign, and that he
did not know that the Equitable Society
had given $4,000 during that campaign.
The senator could not remember when
he began receiving contributions from In
surance companies, but thought 1t might
be fifteen years or more.
That is what naturally would be in
volved
"Isn't that really what is involved?'
Il should think So.
When Senator Platt had finished his
testimony MIR. Comans was recalled ana

lively unimportant.

the Equitable Life Assurance Society, was

meeting of all the mayors-eiect of Ohio

Mayor Dunno of Chicago and Mayor
Weaver of Philadelphia will be present
The meeting took on a national import
aDce to prominent local politicians when
they heard of it last night. and II was pre-
dicted that II might become one Of the
greatest forces in reform politics yet seen
in the country. In speaking of the matter
Mayor Johnson said:
Primarily the idea in arranging the
meeting is to form an organization of the
mayors of all the large cities We want to
get all of the reform mayors into the or
gaEization if possible With the organiza-
tion formed we will discuss and arrange to
fight for legislation that will be of benefit
to the cities.''

The result is that we have legislative as

inquiry regarding this matter. says that the
statements which have been circulated in
this connection are entirely without foun-
dalton, and the only information which has
been officially or unofhciahy given out re-

department has nothing to say regarding
any investigations 1t may be conducting
along this line.
DR.. Galloway adds that the statements
attributed to department officials are so

PRONOUNCED RIDICULOUS.
Report That American Will Combine

CHICAGO, H., November 21-President
johnson of the American Base Ball League
denied today the statements made yester-
day by Charles Comiskey of the Chicago
club of the American League to the effect
that under the management of Mr. John
son the end of the American League is close
at hand. and that the American League
will ultimately be compelled to combine
with the National League on the latter's
own terms.
The American League" said President
Johnson, had last year the most prosper
Gus period of its existence, and it is ridicu-
lous to say that We will give up our posi-
ton and combine with the National

AGAINST SUNDAY SALOONS.
Reported Crusade to Be Started at Chi
cago.

CHICAGO. November 21-Tale Inter
Ocean today says: Arrangements have
been made with justices and detectives to
issue and serve 5000 warrants on saloon
keepers who keep their places open next
Sunday. While no one could be found last
night who would stand sponsor for this new
and practical movement in support Of the
current crusade against the Sunday saloon,
it was reported that clergymen who have
been leaders in the reform movement were
to take the initiative in the new fight.
The ministers, who, under the leadership
of Rev. DR.. w. A. Bartlett of the First
Congregational Church, have repeatedly
urged Mayor Dunno to enforce the Sunday
closing law, are said to have formed an al
lance that will go over the head Of the
mayor in future and seek to bring about
their desired reform without his aid.

The story that the steamer Iwalani

by shipping people in Honolulu. Col
lector Stackable when asked II he
knew anything about the destination
Of the vessel answered that he knew
nothing beyond the indisputable fact
that the Iwalani has not cleared from
the Customs House and therefore has
not gone beyond the limits of the Gus
toms District of Hawaii. United States
Shipping Commissioner Holt was not
certain about 1t but stated that II john
son Island belongs to England, as be-
lieved, then the Iwalani has not gone
there unless those on board desire to
get into trouble with the Customs au.

glish protection or English protectorate
Johnson Island is outside of this Gus
toms district Captain Larsen, agent
of the Sailors Union, still believes that
the Iwalani has gone to Laysan island
after bird raiders or to the Midway
cable station. He utterly refuses to
believe that she has gone to Johnson
Island.

GOVERNOR cARTBR'S MESSAGE

Governor Carter has given the peo-
pie and the Legislators great deal OF
information and as much more to think
about in his message to the Legisa-
ture. 1t is a very interesting docu-
nent and whether every position of the
Governor is well taken or not, he has
given the legislators something def
mite to grasp, that they need lose no
time wool gathering for a place from
which to start.
The opening review Of the financial
situation is a clear statement OF where
the Territory stands and there Is no
doubt that the people with one accord
will respond favorably to the caution
that the Legislature shall not appro-
pirate more than 1t provides revenue
for. The warning against rolling up
an Indebtedness that will be burden
for future generations is very timely.
The liberality with which loan funds
have been distributed at the beginning
OF our Territorial career might create
the impression that the loan fund bust
ness is sort of an inexhaustible source
OF money.
