SMITH NO LONGER IN IT
Suspended Prom The Ministry BY Tho
Cincinnati Pfesbytely.
THE ERROR OF HIS WAYS
He Must Renounce His interpreta.
tIons OF the Holy Script
ures An Appeal May
Be Taken.

CINCINNATI, Dec. i3.-The Cincinnati
prcsbytery, by q vote of 81 TO q. rs unof.
ficially reported, pronounced against Rev.
DIR. Henry r. Smith as follows: "Dr.
Smith is suspended from tho ministry Of
the Presbyterian church until such time
as he shall make manifest to the satis-
faction of the presbytery his remuneration
OF the errors, and that il is his solemn
purpose TO no longer teach or propagate
them"
The majority of the committee favored
n rebuke, but the close vote had already
given decision in favor of his suspension
from tho ministry. His acquittal ON
the first charge and tho closeness OF tho
vote on the other charges and the sen.
tencc are taken as good reasons why Pro-
fessor Smith should appeal to the Ohio
synod and TO the general assembly; but
on the other hand it is said that tho
known views of the synod are such that
an appeal will be i'm vain, except ms to step
toward reaching the general synod.
There is q deep feeling In the Presbyte-
rian church over the progress and result
of tho trial. Many see in II tho opening
wedge for division Of the church. To.
morrow morning the prcsbytery will meet
for the purpose Of approving tho record
and passing sentence upon tho convicted
member.
Dr. Smith said tonight that he did not
intend that the matter should rest here.
He says he will appeal the case to tho
synod which meets next September.
Meantime he will continue In tho pro-
fessors chair mt Lane seminary.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.--Vest's resolu.
tion regarding the Indian territory was
discussed In the senate to-day during the
morning hour. and then went over with.
out action until tomorrow. In the course
OF tho discussion Platt of Connecticut
took IN advanced position in favor of
putting an end to tho existing anomalous
condition of things by the establishment

Indian territory.
Among the bills introduced and referred
were tho following: BY Gallinger, for the
suspension OF immigration under certain
circumstances; by Mitchell. to provide for
national cncampment of militia mt the
worlds fair; by Cullom. to amend the in
terstate commerce law, and by PETER, to
facilitate promotion in the navy.
Consideration of the anti.option bill was

prevent dealings In futures. The cotton
growers every year were becoming poorer
and becoming victims of the rapacious
policy which is taking their earnings and
adding the amount to tho overgrown
wealth OF men who used their powers for
that purpose. George quoted from tho
rules OF tho New York cotton exchange to
show that tho quotations were not flxod
according to the actual traffic in the
market, but by sliding scale established

once a month, who gave the New York cx-

southern states. Their action was an inn

PocATELLo, Idaho, Dec. l3..-Grcat ex-

himself. and is now lying in the city jail
awaiting an Investigation, which will he

As near as can be learned there were no
witnesses to the affair. but the general
consensus Of opinion from those who
know Wright's reputation in st. Paul and
other places. seems to be that he was a
bad man and that the doctor was justified
upon the ground of self defense. A more
complete report will bc given when the
result Of tho investigation is learned to-
