PRAYER VERSUS MEDICINE.
EflSCOPALlANS REFUSE Sane
TiON TO CURING BY PRAY
ER.
house OF Laymcn Defeats Resolution
After 1t Has Passed One Section of
Bishops.

Cincinnati, Ohio, oct. 11.-A reso-
luton giving the sanction of the
Protestant Episcopal church to the
healing of the sick by prayer was
adopted in one section of the house
of bishops of the convention, but was
defeated in another section of the
house by the narrow margin of five
votes. The convention vote was bv
diOceses.
The laymen of the house killed the
report by vote of q to 32, four dio-
ceses not voting.
Rev. Lucius Waterman presented
the report. In doing so he explained
that he had no fear of the word "su-
pernatural"
He cOntended "If Jesus did heal
the sick in the first century in a SUI
pernatural manner, he can do so to-
day and to recognize that fact is not
to put the church in the position of
not recognizing modern science.
While the limits of modern science
have been reached, we have not
reached the limits of the power of
God"
Rev. II. M. Staler Of Atlanta in
dorsed the resolution He said the
Episcopal church had been taken in
the dark in the matter of divine
healing.
1T is our own fault, he declared,
for this magnificent gift was given
to us by our blessed Lord in the be-
ginning. This power Of restoring the
sick by prayer was thrown away by
our church and a woman picked up
that jewel. Now I say let us take
back our own and use this magnifi-
cent gift in the name Of the church"
The laity of the house Of deputies,
as a rule. opposed the report. While
the larger vote polled for the resolu-
ton came as a surprise, the belief
prevailed tonight that the subject
would not be revived at this time.
Both tho house of bishops and
house Of deputies today decided ON
New York as the next convention
city.
The committee on marriage and
divorce today reported that it would
be undesirable to make any change
In the laws of the church at this
time.

CONFERENCE ON COTTON BILLS
ENGLISH AND AMERICAN BANK
ERS DISCUSS GUARANTEE.
Proposal is That American Bank
Shall be Surety for Genuineness OF
Bills of Lading.

New York, Oct 11.-A conference
relative to cotton bills of lading was
held this afternoon between Sir Ed
ward II. Holden, managing director
of the London City and Midland
bank and a number of New York
bankers, who are interested in set
Ting the dispute with foreign finan-
clal interests over guaranteeing such
securities. No definite action was
taken toward effecting a settlement,
1t was announced later, but further
conferences are to be held, which
may bring about an agreement Hope
or such an outcome is strengthened
by the statement of Sir Edward that
he believed a satisfactory arrange
ment would be reached.
AT today's meeting, it is under
stood, the New Workers argued that
the vaildation certificate plan pro-
posed by American bankers but re-
jected by foreign interests is really
the best arrangement possible until
better and more uniform State laws
are enacted in this country No
statement was obtainable, however,
as to whether the foreign interests
are prepared to modify the form OF
guarantee they demand.
The form of guarantee demanded
by the foreign bankers was published
here this afternoon. 1t is addressed
by the banker who RENTS bills to Eu-
rope to both the cotton importer and
the European accepting bank, and is
in part as follows:
I'm consideration of you, the i'm
porter. procuring the acceptance of
the aforementioned bill of exchange
against the aforementioned bill of
lading, and of you, the bank, accept
ing the same. we hereby guarantee TO
you and 70 each of you severally that
the said bill of landing is valid and
genuine, and has been signed by the
agent duly authorized by the carriers
therein named, and that at the time
the bill Of landing was issued, tr e cot
ton therein referred to was in the ac~
tual custody or under the control of
the issuing carriers. Our liability
hereunder is limited to the amount Of
the said bill of exchange"
