CHURCH CONGRESS.

CABLE_ NEWS (United Press Association — By Electric Teleffraph — Copyright).)

A WOMAN'S PROTEST. THE PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS. (Received Last Night, 11.20 o'clock. ) LONDON, October'!. As the Bishop of Winchester took his seat at the Church Congress, a well dressed woman rose and protested against his presiding. The woman added: "God commands you, Archbishop of Canterbury, to uphold me against this man, Edmund Talbot." The woman was quietly rempved. The Bishop of Winchester, in his presidential address on the "Kingdom of God in the World To-day," said, "The Kingdom puts patience above force, service above power, giving above receiving, and. though the application of those principles in the political and social world are extraordinarily difficult, the necessity of some application is inexorable An age of armaments, with its colossal intoler nee, its burdens, and its naked international selfishness, cannot last long. It must be changed by a thunderous, unimaginable catastrophe, or by some better moral transformation."

The Rev. G. W. Emmett made the remarkable admission that many of the customs, practi es and observances of the Church were* based on Christ's sayings, which scholarship had shown to be unauthentic. So mu«h was this the case, that it was hopeless to attempt to rely on the letter of the words spoken by Jesue.
