THE LAMBETH (ONFERENCE,

Fears Are Jot Realized,

Character of the Conference Unchanged.

Naw Yorx, Aug.2.—A cable despatch from London tothe Tribune says: The Lambeth Conference holds its final service on Monday.

The fears of timorous churchmen that the Archbishop of Canterbury would be transferred into an Anglican Patriarch or pope have proved entirely unfounded.

The wend of the proceedings has not been in the direction of absolutism or cen- tralization. A proposal for creating a tribunal of reference hasbeen dropped. The character of the conference as a vo!- untary body, without the poweref en- forcing its resolutions, has not been changed.
