Bishops Demand Strict
Adherence to Church
Canonical Rules
SAY SOME PASTORS
HAVE BEEN NEGLIGENT
The Methodist Episcopal Church
Bishops in executive session in Bal
timore, yesterday insisted upon a
literal interpretation of the Church
law in regard to divorce. District
superintendents were warned to
watch "with earnest solicitude," for
violations of the law*, and offend
ing ministers will be brought
promptly to trial.
The Methodist Book of Discipline,
which is invested with canonical
authority, permits marriage of a di
vorced person in one instance only:
that of the innocent party in a di
vorce fpr adultery. Methodist min
isters have been ignoring the law.
A committee composed of Bishop
Thomas Nicholson, of Chicago;
Bishop Adna W. Leonard, of San
Francisco, nnd Bishop Rchard J.
Cooke, of Athens. Tenn.. after ex
amining the evidence ^ prepared a
resolution which Was adopted by the
entire boarf^ ( of bishops and copies
of which will'he sent to the district
superintendents and to the confer
ences. The resolution says, in part;
A
"The divorce evil has become much
more common in the last few years
and in some places, at least, some
of our ministers have been overlook-!
ing the law. Me call upon our min
isters to give strictest compliance
We call upon our,
district superintendents and annual
conferences to note with earnest so
llcltude any violations of tfie law
in this respect, for we earnestly de
sire that our ministry should be
freed of all odium attaching to vio-j
lations of the Scriptural law.'
* The "Scriptural law" referred to
is Matthew xix. 9, embodied as fol
lows in Paragraph 68 of the Book
of Disciples:
"No divorce, 'except for adultry,
shall be regarded by the church as
lawful and no minister shall solemn
ize marriage in any case where there
is a divorce and the wife or husband

(United Press).—Two women were
murdered, one being terribly mutl
lated. by an Insanely Jealous suitor»
who then wounded a supposed rival
and committed suicide, according to
an account of the triple tragedy
made public today by Sheriff Gib
Wf , n 0 f Copalis Beach. 20 miles north
of Aberdeen.
The sheriff told of piecing togeth
er the murder story as he found,
one after another, the bodies of the
victims. First Gibson came across
the body of Miss Taney Bolton. The
girl had fought desperately for her
life, according to mute evidence. Her
corpse lay on the beach, «hot in the
back and mutilated. A few min-,
utes later in a nearby cabin. Gibson
found the body of Mrs. J. T. O'Brien.
The woman was dead; she had ap
parently been dragged from her
home and killed.
Following the murder trail from
one of the little cabins in the group
at Copalis the sheriff became upon
the body of HJalmar Anderson. One
fist clutched an old service revolver,
with the other hand the dead man
still clung to a bloody pocket knife.
