BISHOPS WILL NOT
SIT AS A COURT
Episcopal Convention Defeats Pro-
pOsaI to Change Method of
Judging Heresy Charges

New York, Oct 1S.-The Protestant
Episcopal church will make no change
for at least three years in its method
Of judging heresy charges. The house
of deputies, at the general convention,
refused today by close vote to accept
a recommendation that a final court
of appeals be established to determine
questions of doctrine, faith and WOr-
ship affecting the clergy.
Under the present system each do
cese adjudicates its own heresy trials
and their decisions are subject to ap-
peal to courts of review. The proposal
defeated today was to establish a Su-
preme court, consisting of the house
of bishops.
Aged Bishop Resigns.
Bishop Edward William Osborne Of
the diocese of Springfield. Ill. resigned
Joseph NJ Francis Of the diocese Of In
dianapolis. asked TO be transferred to a
climate more favorable to his family
and probably will be assigned either to
the vacant see in Cuba or the mission
airy district of Porto Rico. Bishop
Cameron Mann was transferred from
the missionary district of South Da-
kota. to the missionary districts Of
Florida
Vacancies in one diocese and five
missionary districts. caused by deaths
or designations, are to be filled at an
election on Monday.
The house of bishops took into full
communion with the church the island
of Hayti, which with San Domingo,
will be made part of the missionary
district of Porto Rico. The bishops
favOrably reported the resolution sent
up by the deputies for concurrence to
allow the practice of intinction-ad-
ministering of the wine in the holy
communion by dipping the wafer into
it. The health authorities of Denver
protested against the custom of pass
ing the chalice from lip to lip, fearing
disease might be communicated. The
bishops ordered that Injunction should
be adopted at the judgment of the
clergymen when conditions might seem
to make the precaution necessary.
