Special Dispatch to TUE NEw YORK HERALD.
PORTLAND, ore, Sept. IA large star
was busy this afternoon counting the
contributions, ranging from a few cents
to checks running into several figures,
making up the triennial thank Offering
by the women of the Episcopal Church.
II is expected that the offerings, coming
from all over the world. will total a
half million dollars, by far the largest
ever made.
The donations come from the savings
of black women of Africa, from women
Of the frozen North, from China and from
dozen other far Off countries. They come
from the wealthiest and the poorest of
America and OF Europe.
special thanksgiving service. n fix

convention of the church. was held early
this morning in Trinity Church. 1t was
conducted by the Right Rev. Daniel Syl-
vester Tuttle, presiding Bishop Of the
church.
The golden aims basin. given to the
American Episcopal Church in 1852 by
the corporation of oxford University,
England, was used to receive the offerings
Trinity Church was filed. principaiiy
with women.
An impressive procession, headed by
the crucifix bearer and members of Trim
ity choir and including number of visit
ing Bishops. entered the church at 7 80
o'clock.
During the offertory hymn the aims
basin was held before the congregation
and the offerings were poured into II
from the collection plates. The Right
Rev. Walter Taylor Sumner. Bishop of
Oregon, received the offering and pre-
sented it to Bishop Tuttle, who placed
ii upon the altar.
Other Bishops assisting at the SER
vice included Bishop Lawrence of Mas
sachusetts and Bishop Gailor Of Ten
nessee. Bishop Lloyd of New York read
the name Of the departed for whom a
prayer was said preceding the COM
munon.
The House of Bishops to-day accepted
the designations of the Right Rev.
Robert l.. Paddock, Bishop Of eastern
Oregon, and the Right Rev. James p.
Morrison, Bishop of Duluth.
Friends of Bishop Paddock declare
he is heartbroken over the circumstances
leading to his resignation What these
circumstances are have not been made
public. Statements from official sources
i'm the House of Bishops deny that
Bishop Paddock has been the object of
criticism by officials of the church.
IF there is any disagreement or
criticism il is matter for the diocese
in which he has been working and not
a matter for the church officially" the
statement declared.
Bishop Paddock is seriously i'll In

on. It is declared by many, by the in
tensity of his work in eastern Oregon
and by criticism to which he has been
subjected.

considered too weak to make sue
cessful resistance, and the principal
defense was placed on the allied war
ships in Turkish waters. The Greeks
abandoned their attempt to take the
city, but their forces, according to the
latest reports, still remain encamped
upon the plains of Thrace.
But can the triumphant KEMAL be
SO easily stopped on the eastern
shores OF the Bosporus? Not only has
he back of him an army more or less
inspired by the fanaticism of Turk
ish nationalism but at the same time
his progress has elected an unusual
degree OF interest throughout Islam.
These are the two forces drawing
him on for the recovery Of the seat of
the Moslem Khalifat. On the other
hand, it must be said to KEMAL's s
credit that he has displayed so far
a spirit of conservatism and desire
to present his case to the considera-
tion of the Allied Council. He must
see that an attempt to take Constan-
tinople would be an attack upon al
lied Europe; that while he might win
in conflict against Greece he would
have a mightier undertaking in a war
against Europe.
The Greek army. all the reports in
dicate,s is utterly routed 1t suffered
heavy losses in dead and prisoners
and in the capture of some of it's
commanders. 1t can no longer be
depended upon to offer in the, present
crisis any resistance That Greek
governmental upheaval will follow is
not unlikely, and there is already a
report that CONSTANTINE has left
Athens and that VENIzELos will be
recalled.
This situation has brought about a
call from Smyrna for intervention
on the part Of the allied governments,
and this action is said to be under
consideration at Paris. Such course
seems imperative if the allied nations
are to maintain their hold on Con-
stantinople. 1t is absolutely neces-
sary if the racial minorities in Asia
Minor are to be saved from the per-
secution which has always followed
Turkish victories.

ards being destroyed in the fire. The
other sets of parliamentary copies were
placed and still remain i'm the custody
of the Royal Mint, the Royal Society
and the Royal Observatory. Greenwich.
At a later date fifth set was provided
for the Board OF Trade, to obviate the
necessity for using the primaries in i'm
portant comparisons, as had been the
practice hitherto.
Under statute these copies must be
compared with each. other every ten
years and with the primary standards
every twenty years. but the immued
copies are expressly exempted from this
requirement. Hence they have seldom
been examined and were only cursorily
reverifed for the first time in 1892.
when Mr.. III. j. Chaney, the then Super
intendent of the Standards, compared
them with the Board of Trade copies
by means of apparatus which was taken
to the House for the purpose. Since
then they have not been disturbed until
this year Upon the present occasion,
since this year marks the end of the
twenty year period, 1t was thought de-
sirable to include the immured copies
also in a complete set of intercompari-
sons with the imperial standards them
selves. With the kind consent of the
Speaker and in his presence the recess
was opened and the standards taken out
and inspected.
All the comparisons in which the i'm
INJURED. copies were involved having been
az An
gust 3. They were then formally re-
placed in their boxes. which were then
hermetically sealed UP within a lead
sheathing, within an outer oak box, and
replaced in the recess, In which they
were again immured by cementing the
front stone in place.
An apparent variation In the yard Is
OF the order of the differences which
have. been observed from time to time
In the past among the other standard
bars, but the apparent change in the
pound is more considerable. 1t may
perhaps be explained by the fact that
the weight is by no means a good piece
of metal, and Of all the copies It con-
stitutes probably the one least fitted
to form q trustworthy standard Some
evidence IA, however, available, though
1t cannot be regarded as conclusive, that
prior to 1873 the primary standard was
rendered little lighter by wear aris-
ing from its relatively frequent use for
important comparisons. The present Sc
ries of comparisons may render 1t pos
sible to form some conclusion as to
whether this is the case.

One Big Labor Union.
All the People OF the United States
Are Members of III.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: am a
member of the United States labor
union so is my wife. My parents all
my relations and hundred million other
people are also members. We elect a
President every four years, also other
necessary officials at various times. This
labor union has grown and progressed
for nearly 150 years. In spite of sew
eral critical Illnesses survival finds it
stronger than ever
Into this union there have intruded
from abroad malignant disease germs
which have developed into a cancerous
growth. Medical treatment has been APP
piled, but without avail. The cancer still
grows and slowly eats into the healthy
tissue of our great organization.
We should have a consultation of the
best surgeons and physicians, and they
should decide on definite policy Of
treatment: either find some medicine that
will positively and effectively kill these
pernicious germs and thus allow the
constitution to grow TO a healthful state,
or else perform an operation on the pa
tient, cut out the diseased tissues. apply
proper antisepties and bandages and Sc
cure good, reliable nurses who will make
the patient behave.
When this cancer is finally rooted out
and every one is guaranteed absolute
protection in every respect in his con-
stitutonal right TO work and earn his
living free of interference from those
who do not wish to work, then the pa
tient will make a rapid recovery.

Lucien Lee Kinsolving of Brazil, to-day
denounced the Ku Klux Klan and its ac-

Like Presiding Bishop Daniel Tuttle,
Bishop Kinsolving placed revision of the
Prayer Book in the background of I'M

ganizing extension work in the interests
of the church at home and abroad.
Harmonic labor and capital, secure
adjustment of rights and further mis-
sionary work of the church-these are
the great living issues before the denom-
ination," he asserted This convention
will do a good deal of shooting with
blank cartridges; l believe. like Ma
poleon of old. in shooting with loaded
cannon"
Bishop Kinsolving, the tallest Bishop
here, Is feet inches tall and weighs
somewhat over $50 pounds. His brother
from Brazil is nearly as tall.
Another interesting Bishop from a far
off country is Bishop w. H. Overs from
Liberia. Some thirty years ago he was
chief OF the Ijebus. nation of about
250,00 people he discovered in the
Dark Continent. Bishop Overs declares
that passage by Congress of a bill pro-
vidng a $5,000,000 Federal loan TO
Liberia would be one of the surest ways
of developing that land, the only place
where free government Of Africans over
Africans exists.
"Were this measure to be passed /
predict that Liberia would adyaAce
further in one year than it has in the
past twenty" Bishop Overs declared.

The Retiring Major Generals.

Secretary WEEKS of the War De-
partment recently wrote to five
Major-Generals and two Brigadier-
Generals who within the coming
year would be retired from the army
on account of age and pointed out
to them that if they retired volun-
tarily now it would render unneces-
sary the forced separation from the
military establishment of number
of promising younger men.
In response to this suggestion
MajorGeneral CHARLES ]. BAILEY,
Major-General FRANCIS j. HERMAN,
Major-General GEORGE BELL, Jr.,
and Major-General CLARENCE r.
EDWARDS have applied for retire
ment. Each of them is willing to
sacrifice a part of his possible period
of high command and the difference
between pay for active duty and the
lower pay of the retired list for the
benefit of the service in which they
have risen to distinction.
This voluntary action reveals de-
votion on the part Of these men to
the good OF the army as a whole and
that they are ready to put the inter-
est of the institution ahead of their
own personal desires and ambitions.
One thing is certain. Their patri-
otie self-sacrifice should not impose
a financial loss on these officers.
Congress should see to it that their
pecuniary losses due to the difference
between pay on the active list and
pay on the retired list are made good,
and this should be done promptly.

Wild Talk About Impeachment

Since the old moon began to shine
there has been no more nonsensical
exhibition of political lunacy than is
found in the talk about 'impeaching'
Attorney-General DAUGHERrY for his
course in applying for certain judi
cial process, and also of ''impeaching"
Judge WILKERsoN for granting tenn
porary injunction on the terms of
the application.
Is our neighbor the World really
in earnest when it lends it's utter
ances to the support of the prepos-
ferrous idea that here is ground for
impeachment?
"De demand for the impeachment
of Attorney-General DAUGHERTy and
Federal District Judge WrLKERsoN of
Chicago said the World yesterday,
sis not so ridiculous as some people
may regard it." Compared with the
charges against these officers, the
charges on which President ANDREW
JOHNSON was impeached were triv-
ial," continued that newspaper.
II the World is in earnest about
impeachment we can only deplore the
condition of its intellectuals. IL the
World is not in earnest we can only
say that it ought to be heartily
ashamed of itself.
1t is scarcely tolerable to common
n OF ~ - xrrith n
newspaper protesting to hold such
sentiments. What civil officers are
subject 10 impeachment? The Con-
stitution defines the scope of i'm
peachment proceedings in the fourth
section of Article III. "All civil off,
GERS of the United States,'' says the
Constitution, shall be removed from
office on impeachment for and con-
viction Of treason, bribery or other
high crimes and misdemeanors."
Treason or bribery will not be al
legged in. this case even by the World.
With what high crime or. misde-
meanor can the Attorney General or
the Federal Judge be charged by any
body whose proper place is. not with
in an asylum for irratfonals9
The nearest the World comes to
specification on this essential point
is to declare its opinion that the
Acknowledgement and the District
Judge, in the matter of the tempo
rary injunction, were proceeding
against the plain provisions Of Sec
tion 20 of the Clayton act"; that they
''were acting to set aside the plain
provisions of an act of Congress"
Does our neighbor yet understand
the plain provisions Of Section 30 of
the Clayton act? As THE New York
HERALD pointed out the other day,
and as every lawyer or intelligent
layman who has examined these pro-
visions with his own eyes ought to
know, Section 20 merely provides
that mo restraining order or injunc-
tion shall be granted by any court OF
the United States, or Judge or the
Judges thereof, in any case betioeen
an employer and employees, or be-
fwesn employers and employees. or
betreen employees. or betWeeR per-
sons employed and persons seeking
employment and SO forth.
In this category of cases where an
injunction is prohibited by the Clay
ton act, where is the prohibition that

meanor for the United States Gov
ernment to apply for. or for Judge
of'the Federal District Court to grant.
