A CHURCH SCENE
BISHOP’S SERMON ATTACKED. (United Press Associavion— By Electric Telegraph—Copyright). (Received this day at 10.30 a.m.) NEW YORK, December 7. One of the most sensational, incidents to occur in the noted Cathedral, Saint John Divine was precipitated to-day by ex-Judge Lindsey of Colorado, who celebrated the proponent of the companionate of bis marriage, who, during a sermon by Bishop Manning rose and attacked him for his sermon against his experimental five years of childless mar. rings period: Detectives who were in the audience since Lindsey announced that he would take issue with Manning’s intention to preach against the subject, rose and forcibly rejected the jurist, who is one of the best known figures in American social courts.
Later Lindsey was booked at the Police Station on a charge of disorderly conduct.
The congregation rose after Lindsey was forcibly removed and cheered the Bishop for several minutes. Bishop Manning who is known as the “Stormy Peter” of the Protestant Episcopal Church of America has for many years strongly opposed within and without the church, every form of social innovation.
