MODEIIXIST BISHOP. ! LONDON, March 28. Bishop Barnes, of Birmingham, ! preaching at Birmingham, said: “Any liope that the new Prayer Book will briny; peace and order into the Anglinnn Chnreh seems to me to be illusory. In another thirty years, the tendency to make Holy Communion the centre and circumstance of Christianity will l>e incomprehensible to a large majority of the churchmen, just as the doctrine of the verbal inspiration of “Genesis” is to most of us to-day. The position ' will grow worse if the new Prayer Book is authorised, as it will legalise a number of Catholic developments. which the Evangelicals regard as being unsound. What is needed i> a reform of the Church Courts, by which an incumbent who breaks his vows can, after trial, he deprived of bis Ivpnefice without being sent to pri son.
'By special arrangement Reuter’s world service, in addition to other special sources of information, is used in the compilation of the oversea intelligence published in this isime. and all rights therein in Australia and New Zealnd are reserved.”
