The New Chapter.


 The members of the new YhaDter are Major P. K. Roots, on" 6f rho members of the resigning "AaHter.; Charles l.. Ros a15aum. J. \. Teller and Phillip F. Gla5er, W. $. Miieh hel, ;od Harry CocaraH.
 IL was stated at ti.e time the letter of resignation of the other members O. the chapter was written thnt W. $ Mitchell had also tendere1 his resignation, but tia; seems 10 have been premature. II is learned that when the differes.ce b. opinion aroso Mr. Mitchell stated to certain of the cla!.ternen that ne would nc get Le would resign. DevclCEmerts tend to show that while he stated he would resign he did not do SD of ficially to the bishop, and the ap- pointments of Mr. Mitchell and Harry Cochran are really not appointments, but a notification that the bishop has dppOlHleu IOui OtHti HeiliDeIS ol lHc chapter.
 Major P. K Roots is the only re- signing member of the chapter to be reappointed.
 Not to Change Name.
 The name of Trinity Cathedral will not be changed on Easter Sunday re- gardless of the fact that at that time the church will go under the government of a vestry elected by the communicants of the church and the preacher ill charge of the conerega- tion will be known as d rector in- stead of a dean as at present. At that time the financial responsibility of the bishop to the cathedral will end, but his relations to that church will be the same as that maintained toward any and all other parishes in the diocese. It will be known through out the diocese as the Cathedral church, as it is now, but the bishop will have no other relations with the cathedral than he has with any oth- CT parish.
 The question of the occupancy of the pulpit at the cathedral next Sum- day and in fact on following Sundays until such time as the new chapter shall have elected another preacher to succeed Dr. Hartley is settled by the statement that Bishop Brown will conduct services at the cathedral next Sunday morning and will preach following that. It is further stated that the bishop will occupy the pulpit at the cathedral for several Sundays if it is considered necessary. This is taken to indicate that the bishop will run no risks of Hartley enter ing the pulpit and preaching in the absence of a writ of inhibition from the bishop.
