REV. Or. MILL|GAN STEPS OUT.
with His Church Sooner
Than Be Disfranchised,
VIII Ally Himself with "a More Lib
eral Branch OF Presbyterlanism.

The troubles OF the First Reformed prcsby-
tcrlan church, In one Hundred ana Nine
tcenth street, between Fifth and lcuuN ave-
nu's, have eliminated IN the acceptance OF
the resignation OF Pastor John {. X. MilIgan,
which was written last September
Dr. MIligan was opposed TO one OF the dis
tlnctyo canuns Of the brauch OF the Reformed
Presbyterian church to which he belongs.
That canon holds that the constitution tthc
United states d. cs not, In TERMS recognize a
supreme God, and II forbids all foreign born
members OF the church from becoming clti-
zcns Of this country, and all nativc-born
members from voting at city, state or Na-
tional elections,
In his opposition tD this law OF the church.
Dr. Mlllg an was supported by majority OF
his congregation, who with him, insisted that
II member Of the Reformed Presbyterian
Church might vote a. an American citizen
without violating any Uf the laws Ol the
church. But year ago at the meeting ~
the synod at PittoDug, after a fierce Nght,
this position was declared to be nCrc'icu..
ID. Miiligan was cno Of the leaders oil the
minority in the synod, and though lie had
been preacher of the Reformed Prcsby-
.
recoSM!2,d q how Illogical IL would be Tor him
under the circumstances to retain his pulpit.
So IN september last lie rendered his
resignation as pastor OF the FIRST Church. \
committee consisting ptfev. james Kennedy,
OF the Furty-elghth street church. as Muder-
atOr; Rev. Robert NJ. Sommcrvllc, OF the
Thlrty-nlnth street church; Rev ). j. Grove,
Waiter q. Miller, VI. VI. Henry and Andrew
Alexander, was appointed with power to act
on the resignation, which the members Of his
congregation were reluctant to accept.
Ihr commission met luesdar evening and
rs proceedings were OF Il lively nature. A
motion was made to lay the resignation On
the table, but Rev. Mr.. Mllligau Insisted that
that would not do, and that the resignation
must De acted upon.
After much discussion, DR.. Miligan's rcsig-
nation was accepted, and on his demand, a
certificate was issued to him, and hts cOngre-
cation was ordered TO pay To him 81 $50 FOR
money advanced by him to pay interest on
the church mortgage and for arrears OF
salary.
REV. DR. Milngan does not believe the
church has the right to disfranChse its mem.
bcrs, and he l. supported almost unanimously
by the congregation, but three OF the 1iYe
elders Of Lhe church took the opposite view,
aiJhO ugh charges OF hercSy on these grounds
were dismissed by the Prcsbytery last Oc-
tObcr.
Dr. Mill an says on the subject OF his res
ignatiln ald lis effect:
" suppose shall be suspended IN June,
when the SYNOD meets. | have resigned
from that b dy. | resigned in order not to
emDarrass my congregation. | do not look
for any rCyulsOn Of feeling ln the Synod from
the action Of last year. | may Join the United
Presbyterian Churcn, as my brother and son
have already done, or may JOn the other
branch OF the Reformed Presbyterian church,
which does not Ohlige commandments TO re-
strain IRON acts OF citizenship"
