Debating the Question of Dividing the Maryland Diocese of the Protest- ant Episcopal Church. Diocesan division principally occupied the attention yesterday of the convention of the Maryland diocese, Protestant Episcopal Church, which is in session at Baltimore. ‘The afternoon session was spent in reach- ing the conclusion that division is advisable, as recommended last year in Bishop Paret’s address and reported on favorably by a committee appointed for that purpose. Questions of lines of division, the division of funds and the securing of additional funds for the support of the two episco- pates occupied the delegates at the night session. Rev. Arthur Powell of Baltimore read the report of the committee advocating division. He said: “This diocese, ancient, high and honorable in the counsels of the church, is conspicuous in its annals for strength, clerical, numerical and financial. Ten years ago it had 171 clergymen, today there are 197; 1,600 were contirmed the year previous to ‘that report, last year 2,284 were con- firmed; communicants then numbered 23,- 180, now about 30,000; offerings have in- creased $38,500. “The diocese is too large for one man fully to administer to its 205 places of worship. The work is stupendous in results. Better divide and have two vigorous bishops than go on for a decade and have the need of an assistant bishop, with doubling of ex- pense without greatly increasing the effi- ciency. We should not make our bishop an ecclesiastical pack-horse. “The two great centers of the present dio- cese, with large missionary populations and jurisdictions, would enable two bishops to do full justice to their duties without the bishops being mere confirming machines or administering agents. The second city in the diocese is the national city of the country. It requires more care and states- manship than even Baltimore.” ‘The question of division was discussed by various delegates. After voting down a substitute resolution and amendments, which were substantially embodied in resolutions from the committee svbsequently discussed, the convention de- cided almost unanimously that division of the diocese 1s advisable. Territory of the New Diocese. ‘The division as decided upon at the night session sets off Washington and the Dis- trict of Columbia, together with the Mary- land counties of Prince George's, St. Mary's, Charles and Montgomery. This territory was proposed by Rev. Dr. R. H. McKim in place of the one recommended by the com- the | mittee, which added Calvert, Anne Arundel and Howard counties to the new diocese. Dre McKim stated that the division ad- vised by the committee would require $6,000 for missions, with only about $4,000 collect- able, while the division afterward adopted, to| he added, would more equally divide this burden. Mr. Skipwith Wilmer proposed putting Calvert in the Washington diocese, but this amendment was defeated. Rev. Dr. James A. Buck said he was pres- ent in Washington when division of the dio- cese was first talked of a quarter of a cen- tury ago. “It was never then thought,” he added, “that anything but the Potomac counties would be taken into consideration. In Calvert county all the sympathies of the people are with Baltimore. It is little short of a monstrosity to talk of putting Annapo- iis under the jurisdiction of Washington. The state capital should remain within the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of Maryland.” Resolutions were adopted for the appoint- ment by the bishop of two committees from each of the proposed dioceses, each consist- ing of three clergymen and four laymen, to take measures to secure adequate support for two bishops. Another resolution, which passed, provid- ed for the division of the present ‘olecopal fund equally and the accumulating fund equitably in the case of dividing the diocese. The steps taken are preliminary, and are contingent upon the securing of adequate support for the two bishops without in- creasing the present direct assessment on parishes. This condition was imposed by Bishop Paret before giving his sanction to the con- sideration of division. The plan of division proposed by the com- mittee also contemplated the future setting off of the northwestern counties of land into another diocese when the growth of the church shall demand it. Bishop of Washington. Washington will be the see city of the new diocese should its establishment be found practicable and be sanctioned by the general convention of the church, to which body the question must be referred. Rev. Stuart Crockett Seated. The report of the committee on rights of clergymen to seats in the convention in- volved the question of seating Rev. Stuart Crockett. Rev. Mr. Crockett was called to St. Luke's Church, Baltimore, last Septem- ber as assistant under a contract termin- able after three months’ notice, at the will of either party to it. After voting down an amendment to the committee’s report to omit the name of Rev. Mr. Crockett the report was adopted without division, and he was seated. Officers and committees were chosen as follows: Treasurer of the convention—Mr. Edgar G, Miller. Standing—Revs. Dr. J. H. Elliott, Dr. J. H. Eccleston, Dr. J. 8S. B. Hodges, Geo Cc. Stokes, Wm. H.

The name of Dr. 8. H. Ridout was referred back to the committee for further consid- eration. To Meet Next in This City.

They Are Certified to the United States District Attorney. ‘Vice President Stevenson yesterday after- noon sent to the United States District at- torney a certificate that Elisha J. Edwards and John 8. Shriver, the uncommunicative witnesses before the Senate sugar investi- gating committee, had refused to answer certain questions. Beyond referring to and appending a copy of the committee’s report to the Senate, the Vice President made no comment on the fact to which he certified. In the afternoon the investigating commit- tee examined Senators Harris and Mills and Secretary Carlisle. The Secretary denied explicitly all the charges made in Mr. Ed- wards’ letter, except the assertion that while conferring with the committee he (Carlisle) on one occasion, at the suggestion of the members of the committee, and using their figures, put a sugar schedule into shape, as he did other paragraphs in the bill. This the Secretary said he had done. He lared that he had not made such a visit as that he was represented as making to the committee to demand that the sugar interest be cared for in the tariff bill be- cause of the democratic party’s obligation to the sugar trust. 3 THE SOUTH OPENS ITS DOORS. Devising Plans to Advertise Its At- tractions. The southern interstate congress at Au- gusta, Ga., yesterday adopted the plan of colonization by county organization recom- mended by the committee on resolutions. The plan provides for county organizations im every county, the officers of the county organizations to form a state organization, and the latter to report to the southern in- terstate congress. These local organiza- tions are to procure options on lands and to advertise in their local papers and prepare other literature for distribution setting forth the advantages and resources of the county. These publications are to be sent in large quantities. The railways under the plan are to co-operate by distributing this literature and by running land-seekers’ excursions to the southern states. The second resolution of the committee on resolutions was then adopted. It favors . permanent exposition at Washi building to be erected by Congress, to which exhibits of resources of products of every state may be sent. The legislature of each state was asked to appropriate sufficient funds to collect and send to Washington a — —, . BS er resolutions were adopted urging Congress to make appropriations to carry into effect the recommendations of this con- Advertising in Europe. ‘The appointment of a committee was rec- ommended to devise some practical plan to lay before the better class of immigrants Both Senators Harris and MMs denied any | from Europe the manifold advantages of the knowledge of the operations of the sugar} south, in order to induce and direct such trust In connection with legislation, as they also denied that Mr. Carlisle had asked protection for sugar. ‘ ery Mills was asked if it were true, as had been reported, that Mr. Carlisle had given Mr. Havemeyer of the sugar trust a letter of introduction to himself. He said this was a fact, but that he had declined to receive the letter. +o Refund Can Be Allowed. Solicitor Reeve of the Treasury Depart- ment has delivered an opinion on the right of the Swiss government to a refund of duties paid on certain world's fair exhibits sold to parties in this country and trans- ferred to the Swiss consul for delivery. The sale, however, never was consummated and the "Swiss government asked for a repay- ment of the duties with a view to reshipping the to Switzerland. The solicitor holds that as the Swiss consul was a mem- ber of the fair commission, appointed by his government, the goods did not pass out of the hands of the exposition authorities, and therefore the can wed law- fully. ——$—_—$_—_- 2 Naval Orders. Capt. B. F. Day has been ordered to pro- ceed, via San Francisco, to Yokohama to command the Baltimore, relieving Capt. Bridgman, ordered home on leave. Lieut. Commander C. H.

The committee will report at the next meeting of the congress. A resolution was also adopted indorsing the work of the executive committee in their efforts to have exhibits of southern products and industries made in the north- ern, New England and northwestern states and in the Dominion of In another resolution the opinion of the convention was expressed that, as the ma- terial development of the states represented was retarded by the deplorable condition of — roads, os oes should adopt fer methods o: and maintaining the roads. ~ The movement toward direct trade be- tween the ports of the South Atlantic and Europe was indorsed, and the encourage- ment of immigration through steamers com- ing directly to southern ports was recom- mended, as was the settling up of waste The proposition to make the celebration of the centennial anniversary of Baltimore's incorporation in 1897 the occasion of a great southern exposition was cordially indorsed. Resolutions also were adopted fully in- dorsing the cotton states and in‘ exposition, to be held at ‘atlanta next year, and, the ‘Tennessee centennial of 1058 at A resolution indorsing the early admission of the territories as states was tabled. A resolution indorsing the Nicaragua canal and commending the work of Senator Mor- gan in connection with it was unanimously adopted.
