ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN, A peculiar feature in the law of Illinois was brought forth during the hearing. It was shown that In that State if a man deserts his wife it may be presumed that he is either dead "or divorced after a certain number of years and she may marry again without getting the consent of the courts. Judge Cook wanted aji authoritative opinion on the question and held the defendant so that an appeal might be taken to the Supreme Court. The decision settles the case so far as California is concerned. Garwood, who lives at 314 Third street, married the woman In the case at Au gusta, 111., in 1877. After living happily together for ten years the husband came to this State without letting his wile know where he was . going. Six years later she married A. W. Byers. The last named, who was possessed* of a small fortune, died last year and almost simultaneously Garwood returned home. He and his wife became reconciled and were ready to enjoy the money that had come to them when other heirs objected. The case will be fought out in the courts of Illinois. The Supreme Court gave Lorenzo Gar wood his freedom yesterday afternoon after hearing: the arguments of the oppos in~ lawyers. The defendant had been committed to the County Jail by Judge Cook until such time as he might see tit to tell whether he had ever secured a di vorce from his present wife. It was shown In the evidence that Mrs. Garwood had married some one elBe in the sixteen years intervening between her husband's departure and return. His re fusal to answer the vital question was based on the statutory provision that a man cannot: be compelled to testify Hgainst his wife without her consent. Had he stated that , he had never been divorc ed a blgraniy charge could have been placed against the woman. The court, with the single exception of Chief Justice Beatty. upheld : Garwood. • Rest of Battle for Estate Will Take Place in Illinois.

Thursday morning, when the important question Is to be made a spec:— order of business for the convention, i * r*T ~ name ' was the all-absorbing topic among the delegates to the gen eral convention of the church in the diocese of California, which opened yes terday in Grace Church. There are many things to be decided, but to the members of the congregations and to the shepherds of the flocks the one burning question is, "Shall the name ' of the church be changed?' There has been a strong movement to change the name of the 6ect to that of "The Catholic Church in America," "The American Catholic Church in the United States" or "The Holy Catholic Church." and whatever opposition _has been developed to the change of"" names* appears among the present delegates to the convention to be one of choice. Apparently most of them seemed agreed that a change of name Is advisable,, but the split appears to be as to the new title which the sect shall select.

Mr. Van Bokkelen stated that there was'no fault to find with the man agement of the general relief fund, . but that it was. his opinion that owing to the distance from the scene of the , offi cials in charge of the fund the same amount of benefit could not be accom plished as where the diocese' had charge of its own fund and was able to apply it where it did the most good. - The rules were suspended and upon motion . Rev. William A.' Brewer of San Francisco was re-elected registrar of the diocese. It is antlcjpated that Albert N. Drown will be reappointed chancellor by Bishop Nichols. Nominations were made for the various standing commit tees and members of the board -of mis sions and the elections- will be held as scon as printed lists of the nominees have been prepared. • < VAN BOKKEIiEN'S REPORT. , Comjnittee on the State of the Church— Rev F.

Luckenbach, who was charged with beating Jose Barbosa, a coalpasser, when on the high seas, was tried • yesterday by United States Com missioner Heacock. He ,-was dismissed on account of lack of evidence. Charge Not Substantiated. But O. G. Freeman, purser on the steamship, clears the mystery up by stat ing his positive assurance of the fact that the dead coal passer was trying to desert, owing to the fact that, like all Japanese deserters," he took all of his belongings with him. The autopsy failed to disclose, the expected fracture of the skull below the scalp wound and also developed the fact that the deceased had a weak heart, which probably contributed to the. hastening of his death brought on by exposure. The fact that the dead man had a gash on the head and was found devoid of his clothing led the police to suspect foul play, and Detectives Harry Braig, Jerry Dinan and James Freel were detailed on the case. Their susplcloi was further strengthened by the fact that K. Na kamura, storekeeper, and J. Yoshlda, fireman on the Hongkong Maru, the men who Identified the dead Japanese, said that they saw him asleep In his bunk at 12 o'clock last night. After jumping over the side of his ship in the dead of night bent upon deser tion, and after having lost all of his clothing In hia battle with the storm tossed waves of the bay, I. Kageyama, a Japanese coal passer of the steamship Hongkong Maru, spent the early hours of yesterday morning wandering naked through the driving storm.
