Episcopal Bishop Urges Church
to Refuse to Recognize Re-
marriage

Notable Address Made Before the Dio-
cesar Convention at Albany-clersy.
mon May Aid in Securing Uniform
Divorce Laws-Gensral News Of the
Day.

Albany. N. T., Nov. 2O.-The thirty
eighth annual convention of the Pro-
testant Episcopal church of the diocese
Of Albany convened in All Saints ca
thedral here today. The feature of
principal public interest was the add
dress of Right Rev. William Crosweu
Doane, bishop of the diocese. His
widely known interest in the subject OF
marriage and divorce was again dis
played in his earnest references to that
subject, in the course of which. after
alluding with approval to the meeting
at Philadelphia. of the congress on uni
form divorce laws, at which he was
present, he said In part:
'tWhatever result Is to be attained in
dealing with this most important ques-
tion depends upon three things: First,
that legislative action can be secured
to correct the methods Of procedure;
second that pressure can be brought
to bear by people who really control
and govern what is called soci-
ETY.; third, by positive and definite
outspokenness of the churches.
And I am increasingly hopeful
and anxious that this church shall
take the lead in a strong and definite
position as to our relation, at any rate
to the question Of remarriage of any
divorced persons. Let us wash our
hands of the whole business. Let the
state which separates unite, and with
out elaborations of detail or definitions
of discipline, let us simply forbid the
clergy to give the church's benediction
to any such marriage"
Touching On the subject of alleged
inroads of modern criticism and the.
Interpretation upon reading the Bible
and the teachings Of the church, he
said in part:
"The Bible is largely an unread and
unknown book to children and to peo-
ple Of middle age. Misuse and mis-
understanding of criticism is respon-
sible for this in no slight degree"
The bishop dealt at lengt upon the
essentially of the "historic fact" of the
virgin birth of Jesus, one of the cardi-
nal faiths Of the Episcopal church, with
a denial of which case DR.. Crapsey was
charged

BUSINESS MEN MUST HUSTLE.
Advised to Go After Trade Of China
With Viqor Of the Japs.

washington, Nov. 2O-Thornwell
Haynes, of South Carolina, United
States consul at Marking, China, is
making reports to the American gov
ernment, in which he gives the export
ing manufacturers of such cities as
Minneapolis hail Columbia for their
failure to go after the trade of China
with the intelligence and energy exer-
cised by the Japanese. The japanese,
he says, maintain school at Shang-
hal, where Japs are taught the Chinese
language. The students in this school,
after graduation, are employed by the
Japanese exporters as their CONNER
are fast covering the whole empire
The Yangtze valley is full of them
"And what" demands Mr.. Haynes,
are the American exporters doing to
Offset such work? Sending advertising
matter printed in English and few
agents unacquainted with Chinese.
That's ALL"
This mailing; of English literature for
distribution among the Chinese, with
the hope of thereby working up trade,
is a thing that makes Mr.. Haynes par
ticularly warm.
What a Chinaman knows about a
foot, an ounce, or a dollar" he says,
"is about as much as an American
knows about IL cha, a lang or a yuen.
Every American mail brings to my
consulate dozens of circulars, catalogs,
ETC., which at the very best can do but
a limited amount of good: But think
what might be the result If all t11is
were in Chinese. The Japanese not only
have theirs in Chinese, but they send
agents who do not have to employ an
interpreter, and who can mix with the
natives live in their houses and eat
their food, and in every way be one
Of them. One of our consulates in Chi
ma recently noticed an unusual demand
for its English printed circulars, and
catalogs. I would especially like those
with thick leaves said one Chinaman
in calling for them, and when he was
questioned he said he used them as
insoles for shoes Why waste time and
money in so uncertain a trade game
or rather, so certain a game-certain
that other nations, especially Japan.
will soon have the trade and we the
chance to go elsewhere to look for
business"
Chinese Want to See.
Mr. Haynes wants the nlanVfa acturers
of the United States, or of some one
community, to get together and start
sort Of exposition of their wares iE
some leading Chinese city. The Chi
namasl always wants TO look see"
before he buys any article, and by this
means he would have the opportunity.

penitentiary, e. c. Thompson, alias A.

When Thompson's case was called
his attorney made a few remarks in his
behalf He stated that the man was a
resident of Chicago and had family
of five children. He understood that
they were respectable people, and be-
lieved that Thompson himself had been
a good man before he made the mis-
take here a few mornings ago. Full
restitution would be made to Mrs. Seek
and he concluded by asking the court
to suspend sentence on condition that
