In the second, the American govern

DUTIES OF INCUMBENT HARD

New York Episcopal circles have
heard that the Protestant Episcopal
diocese of Washington is to have a
suffragan bishop to act as assistant to
Bishop Harding. according to advices
received here today from the metropo-
lis. Bishop Harding is still at his sum-
mer home AT Haven, Me-. and will not
return to Washington until about Oc-
tober l.
Discussing the matter of possible
sufraSan bishop for the Capital city,
Rev. DR.. Randolph H. McKim. rector
or the Church of the Epiphany and
president of the Episcopal house of
deputies, said this afternoon that he
had heard of no such program being
talked Of by Washington Episcopalians.
other clergy Of the denomination had
heard nothing of the matter
Law Adopted Two Years Ago.
The Episcopal Church adopted the law
allowing suffragans about two years ago.
and it has been pointed out that the
arduous duties of the Bishop OF Wash
inston should be hghtened by the selec-
ton of such bishop. who in the event
not succeed to the bishopric, as is the
case with a coadjutor bishop.
During the time the law has been in
force the number of suffragans has so in
creased. it is now declared, that at the
rate they are being created they WILL in
point of numbers, soon equal the regular
diocesan bishops. The diocese of Ten
nessee Is now about to choose suf-
fragan bishop. it is declared, as such a
course is deemed advisable instead OF
dividing the state into two dioceSes.
S1mllar Discussions Elsewhere.
shall be selected is being held now in one
part Of Ohio, the see city of which is
Cleveland In New York also, where one
suffragan has already been selected, the
question of adding another is being dis
cusSed.
Iowa Episcopalians recently chose a
suffragan who will be consecrated at
ceremonies to be held in October.
a suffragan bishop, it is pointed out, is
about the same to a diocesan bishop as
an assistant minister is to the rector of
a parish.
In the instance of the bishopric Of Mis-
souri,. where the Rt. Rev. Daniel Sylves-
ter Tuttle. the presiding Bishop of the
Church in the United States,
is the prelate, the diocese leaders de-
cided recently to select a suffragan to
take the great mass of the work off the
shoulders Of Bishop Tuttle, which, it is
declared, has grown too large for one
bishop.

WORLDS SERIES DATES
TO Be SETTLED TODAY
Clash in National Base Ball
Commission Over Ticket
Sales ForecaSted.

NEW YORK, September 25.-Members
of the national base ball commission and
representatives of the Boston American
and New York National League clubs
gathered here today to fix dates for the
world championship series, to settle
disputed question as to how and by whom
the sale of tickets to che games shall be
conducted, to fix the price for seats, for
mally announce the eligible players and
dispose of any other. business bearing
upon arrangements for the big games.
Make Provisional Schedule.
Although New York is still in need Of
two games to clinch the National League
pennant, the commission will proceed on
the supposition that the championship is
assured. The schedule adopted, however.
will be announced with proviso, in def
erence to the Chicago club, which is d
close second in the race.
After deciding upon the dates the COM
mission will invite Presidents Brush and
McAleer of the New York and Boston
clubs to toss for the honor Of starting
the series in their cities. With the honor
goes the advantage of home sympathy
for the first two games. if the plan to
stage two games In edch city instead OF
alternating each day is carried out.
Indications We're that tie sale of tick
cts would be left in the hands of two
clubs, under close supervision of the COM
mission.
Expect Clash Over Ticket Sale.
Prospects of clash over the manner
Of handling the worlds series tickets were
borne out by statements made today by
both Ban Johnson. president of the
American League. and August Hermann,
chairman of the national commission. Il
am in favor of adopting any methods that
will keep the tickets out of the hands of
scalpers.'' said Mr.. Hermann. but !
still believe that the sale should be under
the supervision OF the national commits
sion.
II stick to my contention that the
American League will stand responsible
for every ticket sold in Boston, said Mr..

should do the same thing in New York.
