London. Aug. An encyclical en-
bracing the results Of the Lambeth con-
ference win De issued from Lambeth
place tonight. 1t shows that the dis
cussion OF 243 bishops composing the
conference We're based upon the reports
of committees appointed 10 consider the
various subjects The congress lasted
from July 20 to Aug 3. Except in
few Instances no intimation is given as
to whether the SO resolutions adopted
by the conference were on subjects of
wide differences OF opinion or not
Among the resolutions passed was
the following:
In view of the tendencies widely
shown in the wrtnsg of the present
day the conferences places ON record the
conviction that the historical facts
stated in the creeds are an essential
part of the faith of the church
The serious decline I'm the number Of
candidates for the ministry Is dcplored
The conference resolved also that the
purely educational systems are educa-
tionally as well as morally unsound.
Interesting to the United States is
the fellowing resolution:
IAN races and peoples, whatever their
language and condition. must be welded
into one body. and the organization of
ul1lcrenl races living Siue ny SIDE III
to separate or independent churches
on the basis of race or color is incon-
sistent with the vital and essential
principles Of the unity of Chrisrs
church"
on the divorce question the rcsulu
tions of 1883 were reafhrmed
BY vote of 81 to 81 the conference
resolved that it WAS undesirable that
the innocent party to a divorce for
adultery receive the blessing OF the
church upon remarrying. 1t denounced
also the growing practise Of the arti-
fetal restriction of the family.
The movements for peace and for the
abatement OF the opium traffic are
commended and the circular says that
steps have been taken by the ap-
pointment of committees for closer re-
latlons with the orthodox churches of
the east
The archbishop of Canterbury in the
encyclical dwells upon the striking re-
vival of missionary zeal The arch
bishop says the solution OF racial prob
lens Is the despair of the statesman
and that II Is for the church TO face
the perplexitbes which daunt the civil
rulers.

Battle to Be Pulled Off Before
June 10, in England.
IN SIXTEEN-FOOT RING
Battle to Go Twenty Rounds
With j. J. Jeffries as Referee.
English Syndicate Makes a Good
Purse and Deposits 81, 900.

London, Feb. 25.-Tommy Burns the
heavyweight champion, and Jack John
son. the negro heavyweight, may meet
in this country to fight for the cham
pionship within the next few months.
A syndicate of British sportsmen have
offered purse for a fight between
Burns and Johnson, to take place in
England. They have placed a deposit
of $4,000 and Burns having accepted
the terms has deposited similar sum
as a forfeit.
The inducements offered to Burns to
meet Johnson are not disclosed, but the
syndicate offers Johnson $4,000 win,
lose or draw. The fight is to take place
before June 10 and Burns insists on a
16 foot ring. He is also agreeable to
the suggestion that James J. Jeffries
shall act as referee. He appears quite
elated at the opportunity thus affored
him Of meeting Johnson, and says the
terms are far better than ever sug-
gested in America. He says he cannot
see how Johnson can refuse them if
he really wants to fight. Burns would
like it to be fight to a finish but it
is not likely that the authorities would
allow any contest going over 20 or 25
rounds. II fight is arranged 1t is
said it will be at Newcastle or one of
the Lanshire cities where a big au-
dfence would be a certainty.
Burns is taking things on quiet at
present doing just enough work to keep
his in condition. He remains at Ham
