ming and Slattery Are
Leading Candidates of the
Diocese in New York
Elect Next Wednesday
Episcopal Delegates Are Ex-
pected to Name a Sue
cessor With Little Delay

With the date for the election Of q
new Episcopal Bishop of the Diocese Of
New York only four days off, interest
among the clergymen and laymen as to
the choice to be made by the conven-
ton is running high.
Although there has been scarcely any
public discussion Of candidates since
Bishop Burch's death several weeks
ago and there is an obvious reluctance
to make political campaign of this
important church event, there is rea-
son to believe that when the diocesan
delegates assemble in Synod Hall at the
Cathedral Of st. John the Divine next
Wednesday there will be little delay in
the nomination Of candidates and q
selection.
While there was some talk yester-
day Of the probability that Bishop
Thomas, of Wyoming, would be placed
in nomination along with the Rev. Dr..
Ernest M. Stires, the Rev. DR.. William
I. Manning and the Rev. DR.. Charles
L. ~lattery-the leading candidates Of
the New York diocese-tAere was at
the same time tendency to discount
the success of Bishop Thomas's pos
sible nomination because of the pre-. =
dent that would be established BY
selecting q member of the clergy who
was only fraternally concerned with
the affairs Of the diocese.
Approve Silence Of Candidates
AS for Dr.. Stires, Manning and Slat-
terry, who, it is recalled, were the lead
ing candidates next to DR.. Burch at
the last election, they are refrainine
from any statement regarding their
predicted candidates.. Their silence.
even as concerns other possible candi-
dates, such. for instance as Bishop
Thomas, is generally approved by
clerical and lay forces of the diocese.
A woman who occupied a high posi-
tion in missionary work of the diocese
said yesterday she did not think either
Or. Stires, Dr.. Manning or DR.. Slat-
terry was eager to assume the duties
Of bishop.
The duties Of bishop in the New
York diocese, it was pointed out. are
uncommonly exacting and, in a sense.

ton, rector Of the Little Church Around

has come out in advocacy of the candi-
dacy of the Rev. DR.. Edmund S. Rous-
maniere, Dean Of the Cathedral of St.
Paul, Boston.
A recent conference Of clergymen at
the rectory of the Rev. Clifford S.
Gregg, Church of the Holy Faith, in
East 1e6th Street, resulted in a straw
vote In which DR.. Slattery led. DR..
Stires was second and DR.. Manning
third. AT another conference of clergy
from Mount Vernon, Pelham, New Ro-
chelle, Tuckahoe and Yonkers, held in
the Church Of the Ascension, Mount
Vernon, DR.. Slattery received II votes
as against for Bishop Thomas, of
Wyoming, and ! for DR.. Stires.
No official Importance can be at
tached to these straw ballots, it was
said yesterday, except to crystalline in
terest in the candidates..
