filed with the secretary of the Quad

Methodist Episcopal Church charges of
heresy against Bishop Mcconnell and
Bishop William F. Mcdowell of WASH
ington. D. c., senior bishop OF the

The retired minister without standing
in the conference as delegate, and
lacking support of the Wilmington dele
cation, charged the bishops with teach
ing false doctrines In violation of the
penal code of our book of discipline.
Supporting this charge he cited
statements made by Bishop Mcdowell
in his book. THAT May Save Some, +"
and by Bishop Mcconnell in his book
entitled, Religious Certainty"
Specific Charges.
In reference to Bishop Mcconnell, Mr..
Cooke charged: "HiS views are the ideas
usually advanced by infidels and Uni
tarians," while he charged of Bishop
Mcdowell that "he would have us yield
the faith of our church TO the con-
clusions of modern infidelity as general
ly taught by evolutionists and Uni
tarianS"
Mar. Cookies complaints were not re-
garded seriously by conference officials
In view OF the conferences action last
