Prelates from five continents and from dletant Islands of the sea, representatives of the Anglican community throughout tha world, participated In the opening ceremonies of tha triennial general convention of the Episcopal church today. For the first the time In ecclesiastical history, Archbishop of Canterbury, primate of all England and metropolitan waa present at a formal assembly of the American Episcopal body. He was received with all tha honor due hla rank, and aa tha guest at the American church was accorded a hearty welcome by four core bishops of domestic dioceses The convention ie regarded as the most Important ever held by the Episcopal denomination. The proposed legislation embraces questions of moral reform, alterations la the ecclesiastical administration and even a change in the name of the church Itself. The house of bishops and the house of deputise, the legislative bodies will devote three weeks to the caaeidernilon of bust ness and on several topics such as the movement to prevent the remarriage of a divorced person while tha former partner to living, and the demand from certain quartan to omit the word from the proteetant church's legal title, The Protestant Episcopal church in the United Slates" a protracted discussion ie anticipated.

The features of today were the presence of the English primate, a procession of dignitaries which formed the moot imposing spectacle ever seen in the tonrch in this country, and a sermon at the opening session In Trinity ofcurrh, by the RL Rev. William Croe-we- ll Doans, D. D., LL.D., bishop of Albany, N. Y. Bishop Doans said that it seemed to him that the seeking after and the insisting spun starting points of agreement was wiser than the seeking after and denouncing the parting points of difference. He mid the church had outgrown the discussion of points of ritual and that tha air had been cleared of tbe eld contentions. He thought the time would come when men would Incline rather to broaden than to narrow the terms admitting persons to the holy communion.
