LONDON. May . In a letter to the
Times, oocupylng three colums. Dr. Tris
tram, chancellor of the London diocese, to
day defenda hla action In granting the
Vanderbllt-Rutherfurd marriage license by
law and custom. Dr. Tristram contenda
that be waa obliged to grant Mr. Vander
bilt'a application.
The chancellor's answer to the bishop of
London's severe criticism forms the text
for a lengthy, editorial In the Tlmea which
aaya Dr. Tristram's argument opena up an
Important controversy between church and
state. The paper maintains that Rev.
Haddom's action In marrying Vanderbllt
and Mrs. Rutherfurd was due simply to an
error of Judgment, which It hopes will not
be copied by other of the English clergy,
and deprecates the "heavy moral sense
which aeema to be implied by the bishop
of London's language."
The Tlmea upholda Dr. Tristram's con
tention that he had no right to interfere
In a matter so dubious that the Houee cf
Commons had legislated in direct contra
diction cf each other and In "the general
moral sense of the publlo."
The editorial continues:
It would seem a great hardship If by the
sole fault of the guilty party an Innocent
person should be placed during the lifetime
of that partner under one of the greatest
and most trying disabilities that can be
-Inflioted, a disability which may Involve
the greatest temptation, and where Chris
tian opinion haa been and la clearly

position In connection with a proposed reso

Roosevelt for a aecond term, made the fol
lowing statement to the representative of
the Associated Press:
I have seen tha reported Interview with
Senator Foraker with reference to the pro
posed endorsement of the nomination of
President Roosevelt by the next Ohio re
publican state convention. At the outset
I want to deny that Mr. Dover, my private
secretary, or, so far aa I know, any of my
friends, had anything to do with raising
this Question.
The first I knew of It waa when I read
In the papera a prevloua Interview with
Senator Foraker which 1 construed aa an
expression of his own personal views. Thla
waa followed by an interview with Oeneral
Oroavenor along the name lines. This made

on the part of aome people to auggeat action

I certainly have no criticism to make of
any Individual aa to hla rlghta to entertain
or express such views, but I certainly do
criticise the propriety of action along that
line by the delegates to the atate conven
tion, who are chosen for the purpose of
nominating a atate ticket. It doea not ap
pear to me to be entirely proper for thla
convention to assume the prerogatives of
the one to be chosen In 1U04, and'upon which
one will rest the responsibility of represent
