Discharged from Further
Consideration
Resolution. Put to Vote, Carried
with Shout---Special Obser-
vance on Good Friday at
Hour of Christ's Death

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE promo
siton to change the name OF the
Protestant Episcopal Church was
squelched today.
FOLLOWING up their advantage of the
day before when they put through the
amendment OF DR.. Manning providing
Tor a two-thirds majority In matters
Affecting the Book OF Common PRAYER,
the advocates of delay welcomed the
introduction of a resolution by the
committee on prayer book which dis
charged the committee from further
consideration of the name question
during this convention.
When the resolution was put to a
vote 1t was carried with a shout that
indicated great relief to the advocates.
The resolution, which was introduced
by the Very Rev. DIR. VIM. H Gros-
venor. dean Of the cathedral. referred
specifically to the two-thirds rule
adopted on Thursday as the chief rea-
son for delaying further consideration
Of the proposed change.
Good Friday Observance,
The committee on PRAYER book also
recommended a special observance for
Good Friday. Ii is a period of five
minutes silence at 3 o'clock, the hour
at which Christ died. The resolution
says that this time be devoted TO
prayerfui silence in commemoration
OF the sufrerings and sacrifices Of our
blessed Lord for our sakes" The
resolution was adopted.
The house of deputies passed this
morning the remaining sections OF
the canon which provides for the or
ganization of provinces and provincial
synods. Archdeacon Stuck asked II
there was no way in which Alaska
could be left out of the eighth prov
ince because of the expense and loss
of time the meetings of the synod
would entail upon the bishop and the
deputies who worked distant territory.
His appeal was voted down.
Council of Bishops.

the council of bishops for the con-
sideration of nominations to fill FIVE

FOR YEARS To CONE
Announcement by Chairman
Adamson, Indicates Attitude
to be Taken by President in.
Matter.

WASHINGTON. Oct 17,-An.
nouncement today by Representative
Adamson, Of Georgia. chairman oil
the house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce and author OF the
Panama canal act. indicates that Pres.
idenr Wilson had decided upon the
policy he will follow toward the CUES
tion Of free tolls for American ships
passing through the canal.
This is the question that mas called
forth protest from Great Britain on
the ground that discrimination in ia
vof Of American Coastwlse vessels Is
direct violation OF the Hay-Paunce-
fote treaty
MIR. Adamson, In his statement to-
day gives notice that at the December
session of congress he will introduce
joint resolution suspending the
operation of the provision In the Pan
anna canal act granting free tolls To
American ships until such time as IT is
demonstrated that the waterway l.
on seIf-supporting basis.
Significance OF II.
The significance of this announce
ment lies in the fact that Chairman
Atkinson has talked with the presi-
dent on several occasions on this sub
ject and as chairman of the house
committee having such legislation in
charge II seems doubtful that he
would present such a measure IL Ii
were at all contrary to the views of
President Wilson
In this connection II was recalled to-
day that negotiations with Great
Britain in regard to the controversy
have been suspended foe several
months and 1t has been reported off
and on that representatives OF Great
Britain have received Informal assur-
ances that Presiden. Wilson in the
coming session would make some REG
concentrations to relieve the present sit
uation. The general belief here is
that Great Britain has refrained from
pressing the controversy on account of
this information.
President Advised.
The impression prevails here to-
night that the president has been adj

lily agreed to this. and both witnesses
were examined at some length.
Frank johnson was recalled and
asked If he had allowed the fact that
he had made bet on the outcome OF
the case to influence him in his tes-
timony. He replied that he had not.
He was asked Ii he had another bet
with another witness, and he replied
that he had and that he had wagered
to | against the defendants.
Other witnesses corroborated the
testimony of yesterday. and to large
extent the dying statement Of Cooper.
Tomorrow will be taken up with
witnesses for the two accused men,
many of them being character wit
nessas. The case may go to the Jury
late tomorrow, but this ID regarded
as doubtful.
