BISHOPS REJECT
PLAN TO SHORTEN
10 COMMANDMENTS
Revision Of Episcopal Pray
er Book Not to Be Com
pleted for Three Years.

St. Louis, Oct. 24-Revision and en-
richment of the book of common
prayer of the Protestant Episcopal
church cannot be accomplished for
another three years. This was DEM
onstrated today when the house of
deputies of the general convention
sent back several sections of the re-
port of a commission appointed to
suggest changes with instructions to
report at the next general conclave.
Previously, however, the report of
the house of bishops upon proposed
changes in the "Order for the Holy
Communion" was read.
Reaffirmation of the belief of the
church in prayer for the dead was
contained in an amendment suggested
by the bishops for prayer in the COM
munion service for Christ's church.
tant," thus, leading churchmen ex-
plain, the implication that 1--WE do
pray for those who have departed this
life in Gods faith and fear"
The house of bishops, according to
the report, officially rejected the
recommendation of the commission
that five of the ten commandments
read in the communion service be
shortened by the elimination of the
reasons.
A change approved was in the title
Of "The Order for Holding Commun-
ion Service" This was a substitute
for "Holy Eucharist" for the express
sion "Holy Communion"
Unction, expelled to be one of the
most debated problems to develop at
this session, will not be ruled on until
the next convention.
What was described by many dele
gates as "the most radical PROPOSE
ton ever made to a general conven-
ton of the church," was contained in
memorial presented to the house of
deputies by Rev. John H. Melish of
Brooklyn, relative to the giving of per-
mission to clergymen to use extempor-
aneous prayers. It was sent to COM
mittee, with instructions to report to
the next general convention.

There were 21S persons in the hos

The fire, the cause of which has not

persisted.
The property damage is estimated at
Sl35 900, partly covered by insurance.
An investigation as to the cause
of the fire showed that blaze started
in chimney Tuesday night. 1t is the
theory Of the authorities that this
smouldered and broke out again last
night.
Many of the nuns risked their lives
in efforts to save children and other
patients in the building. The electric
lights went out soon after the fire
started and nuns and other resucres
had to work in the dark. Men who en-
tered the building said they had to
carry out patients with others hanging
onto them. Several rescuerS were lost
in the darkness and had narrow es-
capes.
One nun is said to have saved 45
children. She stood on a balcony on
the third floor, where the children
were trapped, and handed the children
to firemen on ladders below.

Secretary of War Says Pur-
pose Is to Turn Sentiment
Against Administration.
BANDITS ARE PAID
IN SILVER MONEY
War and state Departments Receive
Information Concerning Conspiracy
for Spectacular Raid on TrOOps or
American Community.

Washington, Oct. &c Secretary Of
War Baker late today declared the
war department has received definite
information that enemies of the Cov-
ernments policy toward Mexico have
conspired with Villa or other bandits
and arranged for a spectacular attack
on American troops on the border, to
be made before the election to create
sentiment against the administration.
The war secretary issued the follow
ing statement:
"The war department has received
definite information, confirmed from
other sources, that enemies of tn. adj
ministration's policy toward Mexico,
in cooperation with Villa or uther
bandits in Mexico, have arranged for
a spectacular attack to be made upon
some part of the American for.c or
upon some American community on
the border between now and the date
Of the election for the purpose of
turning the tide of sentiment against
the policy which the administration
has adopted for the protection Of the
border.
TT is significant, in this connection,
that both the state and war depart
ments were advised that the bandit
forces at present operating in Mex
co are being paid in silver coin.
Full particulars have been trans
mitted to General Funston and to
General Pershing. All American
forces are, therefore, forewarned and
in readiness for such an attack"
No additional information could be
obtained from Mr.. Baker, who left
the city before the statement was
made public, for Martinsburg, w. Va.
to make a campaign speech.
Lansing Resents Charge Of Political
Move.
Secretary of State Lansing tonight
said Secretary Baker had no i:lten-
ton 10 intimate that American citi-
zens were involved in the plot. Mr..
Lansing said an effort was being
made to construe the war department
statement as political play, ana in
answer he denounced such construc-
ton as absolutely false, declaring that
politics were not given thought
in connection with the matter. and
that it was inconceivable that any
American should ally himself with
Mexico, to attack his countrymen.
Mr.. Lansing saw the statement be-
fore it was issued. and discussed 1t
with Secretary Baker. He explained
that both he and Mr.. Baker believed
that in addition to warning the mill
tary commanders, it was wise to give
the information received publicity.
because it might have the effect of
causing the plot to be abandoned.
From other sources it was learned

Members OF both committees said
they favored practical test of the

up to the resignation Of Secretary

WOMAN DENIES ....
SALARY WAS SPLIT

Chicago, Feb. 26-Positive denial
that Mrs. Page Waller Eaton had
been compelled to contribute part OF
her salary as a city employe to the
relief of a relative Of Mayor Thomp-
son was made today by Mrs. Louise
Osborne Rowe, head of the city de-
partment of public welfare, to whom
Mrs. Eaton had testified she had
made the alleged payments.
Mrs. Rowe's denial was made from
the witness chair, before the civil
service commission investigating the
charges.
After leaving the witness stand to-
day, Mrs. Eaton was quoted as saying
that she had obtained information
which exonerated Mayor Thompson
from all knowledge of the payments
which she said she had made to Mrs.
Rowe for the benefit Of Mrs. Mar
garet u. Mivelaz, the mayors sister
in-law.
Mrs. Rowe contradicted the story
told by Mrs. Eaton, who had quoted
the head of the welfare department as
saying "Maizie says you will have to
come across" referring to Mrs.
Thompson, with the payment of a
third of her salary to Mrs. Rowe.
