Lower Court Sustained. ‘The Court of Appeals teday handed cown an opinion, written by Mr. Chict Iustice Alvey, affirming the judgment cf the lower court in the case of Horatiu Prewning, ep- pellant, against the National Capital Rank | of Washington. The case involved an actfon for alicged deceit, instituted by the apyellec, who’ wag the plaintiff in the court below, cgolnst the appellant. It was alleged that the defend- ant, Intending to deceive and defraud the ntiff, wrongfully and deceitfully encour. ea und persuaded the plaintiff to loan to hn B. Scott $2,500 by representing that Scott was werth $75,000, whereas he was not worth thit amount or any other sum, but, on the other hand, was then indebted to the defendant in the sum of $4,000. The verdict and jadgment being against the de- fendant, he appealed, INES IN ANNUAL: MEETING Proceedings of Bpiseopal Convention, | BISHOP SA PTERLE PRESIDING OFFICE Arrangements for General Conven- tion Here in. October. ELECTION OF DELEGATES The second day's session of the third annual convention of the Episcopal dio- cese of Washington was called to order at 10:30 o'clock this morning by Right Rev. Henry Y. Satterlee, D. D., bishop of Wash- ington. There was but a small attendance. The minutes of yesterday's session were read by the secretary, Rev. A. S. Johns. The roll of the members who did not an-; swer to their names at yesterday's session | was called and fifteen responded. i At 11 o'clock there was a discussion of the report of the committee on parochial endowments, it having been made the or- der of the day. Mr. A. S. Brown had the floor and moved that certain amendments be made to the resolutions presented by the committee. There was a great deal of discussion of the matter, in which most of the prominent members of the convention took part. It was brought out that on more than one occasion trust funds and endowments of the churches have been lost, and it is to guard against such losses that the com- mittee took the matter under considera- tion. On motion of Mr. E. B. Hay, the en- tire matter was recommitted to the com- mittee to formulate such resolutions as will fit the case. Recommendations Submitted. Rev. Alfred Harding offered a motion that a committee prepare a tabulated statement giving information on parochial reports. Rey. Thomas Packard moved that section 1, canon 9 of the diocese be amended so. as to provide for two arch- deaconries in the diocese in place of one, as at present. The committee on new parishes recom- mended that Epiphany Church, Prince George's county, Md., be admitted to the convention, and it was adopted. ‘The bishop referred to the matter of raising th? money necessary for the ex- peuses of the geaeral conyention. It estimated that the expense to this dioc Will be $4,000, ard it was asked that rectors call the ettention of the pari ioners to the matter.
