The Baltimore Convention Favors a Wash¬

ington Bishop.

Debating <bc OmeitioB of Dlvtdln* (he

Maryland Diocese of the Proteat-

ant Eplaeopal Church.

Diocesan division principally occupied theattention yesterday of the convention of theMaryland diocese, Protestant EpiscopalChurch, which la 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'saddress and reported on favorably by a

committee appointed for that purpose.Questions of lines of division, the divisionof funds and the securing of additionalfunds for the support of the two episco¬pates occupied the delegates at the nightsession.Rev. Arthur Powell of Baltimore read the

report of the committee advocating division.He said: "This diocese, ancient, high andhonorable in the counsels of the church.Is conspicuous In its annals for strength,clerical, numerical and financial. Ten yearsago It had 171 clergymen, today there are1D7; 1.0UU were connrmed the year previousto 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 ofworship. The work is stupendous in results.Better divide and have two vigorous bishopsthan go on for a decade and have the needof an assistant bishop, with doubling of ex¬

pense without greatly Increasing the effi¬ciency. We should not make our bishop anecclesiastical pack-horse."The two great centers of the present dio¬

cese. with large missionary populations andjurisdictions, would enable two bishops todo full Justice to their duties without thebishops being mere confirming machines oradministering agents. The second city Inthe diocese 1b the national city of thecountry. 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 substantiallyembodied in resolutions from the committeesubsequently discussed, the convention de¬cided almost unanimously that division ofthe diocese is advisable.

Territory of the New Diocese.The division as dcclded 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 territorywas proposed by Rev. Dr. R. H. McKlm inplace of the one recommended by the com¬

mittee, which added Calvert, Anne Arundeland Howard counties to the new diocese.Dr. McKlm stated that the division ad¬

vised by the committee would require $6,0110for missions, with only about $4,000 collect¬able, while the division afterward adopted,he added, would more equally divide thisburden.Mr. Sklpwlth Wllmer proposed putting

Calvert in the Washington diocese, but thisamendment 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," headded, "that anything but the Potomaccounties would be taken Into consideration.In Calvert county all the sympalhtea of thepeople are with Baltimore. It Is little shortof a monstrosity to talk of putting Annapo¬lis under the jurisdiction of Washington.The state capital should remain within theecclesiastical jurisdiction of Maryland."Resolutions were adopted for the appoint¬

ment by the bishop of two committees fromeach of the proposed dioceses, each constat¬ing of three clergymen and four laymen, totake measures to secure adequate supportfor two bishops.Another resolution, which passed, provid¬

ed for the division of the present episcopalfund equally and the accumulating fundequitably In the case of dividing the diocese.The steps taken are preliminary, and are

contingent upon the securing of adequatesupport for the two bishops without In¬creasing the present direct assessment onparishes.This condition was Imposed by Blahop

Paret before giving his sanction to the con¬sideration of division.The plan of division proposed by the com¬

mittee also contemplated the future settingoft of the northwestern counties of Mary¬land Into another diocese when the growthof the church shall demand It.

Blahop of Washington.Washington will be the see city of the

new diocese should its establishment befound practicable and be sanctioned by thegeneral convention of the church, to whichbody the question must be referred.

Hev. Stuart Crockett Seated.The report of the committee on rights of

clergymen to seats In the convention In¬volved the question of seating Kev. StuartCrockett. Rev. Mr. Crockett was called toSt. Luke's Church, Baltimore, last Septem¬ber as assistant under a contract termin¬able after three months' notice, at the willof either party to It.After voting down an amendment to the

committee's report to omit the name ofRev. Mr. Crockett the report was adoptedwithout division, and he was seated.Officers and committee* were chosen as

follows:Treasurer of the convention.Mr. Edgar O.

THE TWO CORRESPONDENTS.

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 Ellsha J. Edwardsand John S. Shrlver, the uncommunicativewltresses before the Senate sugar Investi¬gating committee, had refused to answercertain questions. Beyond referring to andappending a copy of the committee's reportto 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 andSecretary Carlisle. The Secretary deniedexplicitly all the charges made In Mr. Ed¬wards' letter, except the assertion thatwhile conferring with the committee he(Carlisle) on one occasion, at the suggestionof the members of the committee, and usingtheir figures, put a sugar schedule Intoshape, as he did other paragraphs In thebill. This the Secretary said he had done.He declared that he had not made such avisit as that he was represented as makingto the committee to demand that the sugarinterest be cared for In the tariff bill be¬cause of the democratic party's obligationto the sugar trust. >Both Senators Harris and Mills denied any

knowledge of the opera*lons of the sugartrust In connection with legislation, as theyalso denied that Mr. Carlisle had askedprotection for sugar. Senator Mills wasasked If It were true, as had been reported,that Mr. Carlisle had given Mr. Havemeyerof the sugar trust a letter of Introduction tohimself. He said this was a fact, but thathe had declined to receive the letter.

Refnnd Can Be Allowed.Solicitor Reeve of the Treasury Depart¬

ment has delivered an opinion on the rightof the Swiss government to a refund ofduties paid on certain world's fair exhibitssold to parties In this country and trans¬ferred to the Swiss consul for delivery. Thesale, however, never was consummated andthe Swiss government asked for a repay¬ment of the dutlos with a view to reshlpplngthe goods to Switzerland. The solicitorholds that as the Swiss consul was a mem¬ber of the fair commission, appointed by hisgovernment, the goods did not pass out ofthe hands of the exposition authorities, andtherefore the refund can be allowed law¬fully.

ceed, via San Francisco, to Yokohama tocommand the Baltimore, relieving Capt.Brldgman, ordered home on leave. Lieut.Commander C. H.

THE SOUTH OPENS ITS DOORS.

DctMii Plans to A<r»rtl»« Its At¬tractions.

The southern Interstate congress at Au¬gusta, Oa.. yesterday adopted the plan ofcolonisation by cointy organisation recom¬

mended by the committee on resolutions.The plan provides for county organisations

In every county, »he officers of the countyorganizations to form a state organisation,and the latter to report to the southern In¬terstate congress. These local organisa¬tions are to procure options on lands and toadvertise In their local papers and prepareother literature for distribution setting forththe advantages and resources of the county.These publications are to be sent in largequantities. The railways under the plan areto co-operate by distributing this literatureand by running land-seekers' excursions tothe southern states.The second resolution of the committee on

resolutions was then adopted. It favors apermanent exposition at Washington, abuilding to be erected by Congress, to whichexhibits of resources of products of everystate may be sent. The legislature of eachstate was asked to appropriate sufficientfunds to collect and send to Washington astate exhibit.Other resolutions were adopted urging

Congress to make appropriations to carryInto effect the recommendations of this con¬gress.

Advertising In Europe.The appointment of a committee was rec¬

ommended to devise some practical plan tolay before the better class of Immigrantsfrom Europe the msnlfold advantages of thesouth. In order to induce and direct suchImmigration to the southern states. Thecommittee will report at the next meetingof the congress.A resolution was also adopted Indorsing

the work of the executive committee Intheir efforts to have exhibits of southernproducts and Industries made In the north-em, New England and northwestern statesand In the Dominion of Canada.In another resolution the opinion of the

convention was expressed that, as the ma¬terial development of the states representedwas retarded by the deplorable condition ofpublic roads, the legislatures should adoptbetter methods of building and maintainingthe roads.The movement toward direct trade be¬

tween the ports of the South Atlantic andEurope was Indorsed, and the encourage¬ment of Immigration through steamers com-lng directly to southern ports was recom-mended, as was the settling up of wasteland.The proposition to make the celebration

of the centennial anniversary of Baltimore'sIncorporation In 1807 the occasion of a greatsouthern exposition was cordially Indorsed.Resolutions also were adopted fully In¬

dorsing ths cotton states and Internationalexposition, to be held at Atlanta next year,and the Tennessee centennial of 1886 atNashville.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 tn connection with it was unanimouslyadopted.Resolutions were adopted to the effect that

laws should be passed to Increase the confi¬dence both of the laborer and capitalist Inthe disposition of the people of the southto treat them fairly and Justly.United States Senator Jarvis of North

Carolina read a paper on obstacles to south¬ern development., in which he advocated theestablishment of such stste. county snd citygovernments throughout the south as wouldgive the fullest assurance to the would-besettler that his life, liberty and propertywould be as secure as In any section of theoountry.
