THEY ARE NOT aERETIcs.
These Reformed Presbyterians Did
Not advise People to Vote.

NEW YORK, October 2S.-The New York
Presbytery of the Reformed Presbyterian
church met today for the purpose of hearing
the report of the committee appointed at the
last session to consider the charges of here
sy against Rev. DR.. J. @. X. Milligan of this
city and Rev. j. r. Carson of Brooklyn. The
charges of heresy against both ministers
were that they urged the members OF their
congregations to vote at the election last
year, a practice antagonistic to the doctrines
of the Reformed church. The committee re-
ported at the synod last year and pronounced
the libel against DIR. Milligan informal. The
committee recommended that no further ac-
tlon be taken In the matter. The report was
adopted after warm debate, and the follow
ing was adopted:
Resolved: That after hearing the explanations
OF Brothers Milligan and Carson, the Presbytery
feels satisfied that no grounds exists ON which to
base libel against these brethren. The arti-
cl-s In the press which occasioned suspicion as
to their fidelity to the provisions OF the church
were merely errors of judgment as to the expedl
eDcy of publishing certain views that tender to
disturb the peace OF Zion.
