More Episcopal Bishops.

Another special meeting of the Epis-
copal House of Bishops has been called.
The date is April II, and the place New
York, where the special meeting OF
last October was held. There is in the
call for this second meeting a phrase
that is attracting attention. II is this:
Vacancies that may occur during the
special session" The inference is that
some bishop or bishops are to resign.
and that vacancies not now existing
will need TO be filled before adjourn
ment.
The unusual situation supposed TO
demand the second special meeting is
the case of Bishop Rowe of Alaska. In
1894 this same house of bishops elected
him to the Alaska district, Mr.. J. Pier
pont Morgan underwriting his salary
for three years. Last October the
house elected him 10 South Dakota.
He declines, and says he will remain
in Alaska. Canonists are asking, What
next? A few weeks since Bishop Ken
drick of New Mexico died, and Bishop
Tuttle. of Missouri, as presiding bishop.
appointed Bishop Mann, Of North Da-
kota, to the vacancy. That is, he as
signed him to the charge. Now II is as
sumed that he may contemplate re-
signing North Dakota in order TO ac-
cept New Mexico. IL elected to II. A
vacancy would then exist in North Da-
kota.
Bishop Van Buren. of Porto Rico,
has resigned. giving as his reason the
adverse effect of the climate upon his
health. A new bishop for that district
is TO be chosen. There is a vacancy
in Panama, but IL has been decided it
must remain vacant until the house OF
deputies is also in session, and that
will not occur for two years. The In
dian situation in South Dakota, along
with the Alaskan one, is also unad-
justed. Three new bishops will be
elected, and perhaps four. There are
rumors of additional designations, one
because of varying construction OF the
Episcopal laws, and another because
of i'll health

Pushing Foreign Missions.

The foreign missions conference repre-
senting all Protestant foreign societies of
the United States and Canada, expressed
the conviction during its sessions just
held that insufficient emphasis Is being
put upon the spiritual side Of missionary
effort 1t approved OF the various ef-
forts Of laymen and others to increase
financial contributions, but ordered word
to be sent TO all churches that societies
themselves feel that prayer is being neg
lected for plan. and that campaigns are
entered upon from a business point of
view, often with the holy spirit well nigh
left out OF calculation.
The conference authorized the appoint
ment Of a national committee on China
famine relief. and urged that this COM
mittee be not a mere creature of the
missionary societies. II reported that
millions OF persons in China are dying
miles in extent has had only one fair
crop since 1903 A committee has been
named in Shanghai, and the American
committee is asked TO cooperate with it,
The conference also ordered one Of its
standing committees TO prosecute work
on the collection and presentation OF
statistics, and to publish them at the
earliest moment. This step, said TO be
urged on by Iaymen. is the beginning Of
ence itself, and not an unofficial periodi-
cal, prepare and publish each year the
data Of missionary contributions. The
periodical in question showed, in its
January issue. a smaller increase in gifts
from the churches of North America to
foreign missions during 1911 than during
any year save one since 1900. 1t Is said
the new statistics will be ready by
April.
Immediately following the conference,
AID wSth most secretaries OF foreign So
cieties Of North America attending the
laymen's missionary movement held a
one-day conference. Growing out OF this
conference the movement has issued
statement to the churches in which two
important points are made. One is that
the present inadequate instruction of
Christian people concerning missionary
conditions ought TO be remedied by the
adoption by the churches Of practical
methods, backed by adequate support It
states that II such large policy were
seriously enforced for a few years the
strength of North America in men and
money for foreign missions could be in
creased many fold The other point is
that opportunities in China, and to some
extent in India and Africa, are now such
as may never come again. and that, be-
cause Of these opportunities unusual ef-
forts ought now to be put forth by the
churches of this country. The movement
thinks that other pressing plans might
well be deferred until some Of these pass
ing openings for Christianity are entered.
