BISHOP CANNON
TO FACE new
CHURCH PROBE
Methodist Heads to Con-

of Misconduct.

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. ga
board of twelve bishops must be
appointed by Bishop William N.
Ainsworth, president Of the college
of bishops of the Methodist church
south, to investigate new charges
against his fellow-prelate, James
Cannon Jr.
DR.. Coston J. Harrell, pastor OF
Monument Methodist church here
and one of the four ministers to
proceed against Bishop Cannon,
continued today to refuse to make
public nature of the charges.
1t is believed the churchmen
elaborated upon a previous COM
plant in regard to stock market
speculation and accused Bishop
Cannon of other irregularities Of
conduct.
The bishop is aboard a liner
bringing him and his bride from
Brazil.
Church rules provide that the
bishop be notified of the charges at
tn same time they are forwarded to
the chairman of the college of
bishops.
Under these rules, it was believed,
action would be delayed until Bishop
Cannon'S arrival in the United
States.
The board, if it desires, may sus-
pend the bishop until he is brought
to trial at the next general confer
ence.

Police might not have caught him
had he not broken his own long
standing rule-"Never tangle with
a woman and you'll beat the law"
He had met, while a fugitive, a
Kansas City girl.
Falling in love with her, he joined
her, her brother, the brothers wife
and two other companions on a trip
to the new oil fields near Eldorado,
Kansas.
There the police discovered the
group, hiding in shack. A gun
battle developed when the officers
surrounded the place, and one of his
companions was shot dead.
Then La Trasse stepped to the
door of the shack, his hands high
above his head, and shouted:
Don't shoot! There are women
in here. Come and get me-"
Since then La Trasse has stayed
in prison.
