Of their dividend charges.
In order that the American roads

Fight ON DIVORCE
PROPOSAL TO FORBID REMAR.
RAGE AFTER DIVORCE
AWAITS DECISION.
Change cf Name Debated--Upper
House at Cincinnati Votes De-
mand for More Pay for
Workmen

Cincinnati Ohio, Oct. IA pro-
posal to forbid absolutely the mar
riage of divorced persons by Episco-
pal clergymen today agitated the
House of Bishops at the trieunial ma
tional convention of the crurch, now
in session here. The canons of the
church, as now drawn up, provide in
an extreme case that the innocent
party in a divorce on one ground may
be married again within the church.
To abolish this reservation the pres
ent fight is waged.
A canvas of the bishops, made this
afternoon by the Examiner represen-
tative, showed a small majority of
those who would say anything of the
measure favored the repeal of this
regulation. However, the question is
one still to be settled, and the bisn-
ops said this evening after their ses-
sion was ended that no definite ac-
tion has been taken as yet This
will come, it is thought, either tomor-
row or Saturday.
Debate Change of Name.
The debate in the House of Depu-
ties upon the question of changing
the name of the church ended this
afternoon in a decision to put off
a vote on the matter until tomorrow.
George Wharton Pepper of Philadel-
phia, of the committee on change of
name, reported that minority of
that body favored complete change.
and he therefore gave the title of
THE Holy Catholic Church as being
the best name to substitute for The
Protestant Episcopal Church of Amer.
lica," the name now used,
Mr.. Pepper argued that the claims
lof the Roman Catholic church to be
the only Catholic church have arisen
because Of the fact that 1t is the only
prominent church in this country
which has the title OF catholic" in
Is name. Roswell Page of Beaver
Dam Depot, Va, ple1red for the pres
ent name and declared that change
would indicate fear Of loss of infu.
ence. Judge Geo. F. Henry of Des
Moines, Ia, stated his belief to be
the same as that Of Mr.. Page The
Rev. Il. L. Parsons of Berkeley, Call
AMI and Charles M. Perry of Sunbury
Pa, pleaded for the new name.

Madrid, Spain, Oct. II. Yesterday
was the anniversary of the execution
of Professor Francisco Ferrer,
founder of the modern school at Bar
celona, who was convicted Of having
conspired against the government an:
brought about the rebellion in the
summer Of 1909. The day had been
dreaded by the authorities. as free
thinkers, Socialists and Republicans
planned Femer demonstrations that
might easily lead to bloodshed No
untoward incident occurred, how
ever.
This was due probably to the firm
attitude of Premier Canalejas and the
ministry and the orders Issued TO Gen.
Weyler, captain general of CATALONIA,
to put down any revolt mercilessly.
The government was plainly
anXiouus. Throughout Spain troops
were held at their barracks ready for
instant service. Every officer and
soldier on leave of absence had joined
his command at daylight.
