Mexico City, Oct. 21. "The disso lution of Congress by.

I am not sure but that it is. The matter was wholly within the discretion of iny govern ment and should not be the subject of comment." i " The minister declined to talk about recommendations that might be made concerning intervention. He said he was inclined 10 oeiieve me uuitcu States did not fully appreciate the se riousness of conditions in Mexico, which in his opinion were due to such a lack of accord between the govern ment and the people and such a diver sion of aspirations among the revolu tionists that no one element could be expected to dominate the situation.

"I have no regrets," werer his .last wrirrls. "If I had everything, to do over again I would do just as I have done. My fight has just begun." Half a dozen of his advisers win follow him to New York tomorrow to aid him in starting his fight for the Assembly. - Final plans for the campaign were drawn up tonight at the last meal the impeached Governor ate in the execu tive mansion. Among his guests was James C. Garison, who, due to his criticism of some of theanti-Sulzer assemblymen, brought himself in contempt of the Assembly and has spent the last month in the Albany county peniten tiary. He was released today by Judge Cochrane at Hudson into the custody of his counsel until next Fri day. Garison plans to participate in the Sulzer campaign if he is hot re manded to prison. rs.

"I could tell some things that would be interesting." News that Sulzer was on the train spread quickly and a curious throng of passengers hurried back through the coaches to see him. He appeared not to see them. As silently as the crowd came it wended its way back into the station and Sulzer was on his way to New York to attempt to regain his lost political prestige, - What wil be the outcome of Sul- zer's race for the Legislature was age, Mrs. Eaton' asked her to destroy all of tne records in me cast;, sms that her name was Owens and that she. was the grandmother of the child.

The divorce question came up in the general con vention of the Protestant Episcopal church today, the House of Deputies by resolution deciding to co-operate with the "international committee on marriage and divorce" in arranging for an international congress to deal with the subject. The Congress is to be held1 in May, 1915, at the Panama Exposition , in San Francisco. The deputies today concurred in the selection of the five missionary bishops chosen by the House of Bishops yes terday. The new prelates are Bish ops Hugh Burleson, of worth Dakota; W. B. Capers of Spokane; Milo H. Gates, of Cuba; F. C: Howden, of . New Mexico, and Charles Blaney Col more, of Porto Rico. A resolution introduced several days ago by Rev. Dr. Freeman, deputy from' Minnesota, intended to further religious training in the public schools, was adopted by the House of Deputies. The resolution instructs the generai board of religious education to eiirct if possible through co-operation with other religious bodies a system of in struction commensurate with the needs of our youth," together witn , forms and exercises calculated to pro- 1 mote patriotism and the "hightsl , sense of personal integrity and purity of life." The general board is in- J structed "to - take prompt action to, r promote the dally reading of -a.. portion'' ' of the ; Holy T Scriptures in all public-. ; schools Jdb$flv this.- o-esplution... and u that 'on marriage and divorce must be concurred in by the House of Bishops j before becoming effective. ! The committee on the prayer book; today reported favorably on the pro posal that the phrase "all Jews, Turks and Heretics and Infidels" be made to read "all those who know Thee not through the gospel of Thy Son." The House of Deputies voted favorably on this change. Debate Negro Question. A heated debate over the negrd question enlivened deliberations of the House of Deputies today. A majority report by the committee on racial Episcopate, with recommendations against tne proposal to estaDiisn sep arate churches, dioceses, clergy and bishops for Southern negrpes, was presented. A minority report advocat ing separation of the races and ap pointment of negro bishops . to sit in the House of Bishops with powers equal to the whites, also was present ed. ... Amid a storm of discussion tne house made consideration of both re ports the order of business tor tne ai- ternoon session tomorrow, limiting debate on each side tb half an hour. 'The nrouosal is a radical violation of the principles and customs of dio cesan union," asserts the majority re port read by Dr. C. B. Bryan, of North Carolina, witn tne uimusi. friendship for our negro brethren and with the desire to advance the work of the church among them, we still cannot believe that as a race they are prepared for an independent ecclesiastical administration." To this declaration tne minority. consisting of Bishop Kilsonving, or Texas; Bishop Chesshire, of North Carolina, and Rev. Dr. J. McK. Pit tinger, of Raleigh, N. C, took sharp exceptions. . "The white people ano tne iiesiv people of the South," said the minority report, "cannot be dealt with by the Church witnout a snarp ana positive apna ration and distinction between the two in worship, and in all corpo rate, ecclesiastical activities as wen as in social life.
