No Hope for the Liberal Preachers
Sunday Breakers Denounced.
PITTsBUEG, June 6.-At today's session
of the Reformed Presbyterian synod DR..
McAllister closed his argument in defense
OF the action of the Pittsburg presby-
terry. During the latter part of his
speech he paid his respects to
various societies and corporations who by
work desecrate Sunday. He referred to
the government permitting transmission
of mails en- Sunday, and touched up Post
master-General Wanamaker and heads of
other government departments in a lively
manner. Referring to the coming Worlds
fair, he made strong argument for clos
ing it on Sundays.
The general belief is that there will be
no compromise; that the action of the
Pittsburg presbytery will be sustained
and number of bright. liberal-minded
young ministers expelled There seems
to be no doubt, either, that expulsion will
be followed by split in the church.
