that 1t is true. 1t Is understood that the
Seaboard will begin its extension OF the
East and West to either Atlanta or
point on the Belt Line on the suburbs OF
the city. in a few weeks.
An additional rumor is to the effect that
the line is to be built into Birmingham,

DR.. PARKHURST
Not Standing Very Well With
New York Presbytery
On Account Of Alleged Sharp Criti-
cisms on Presbytery's Action
In Regard 10 Selling Church Property in
Which He Is interested.

New York March 1l.-Resolutions re-
aecting upon the conduct Of DR.. Charles
ii. Parkhurst in the matter Of the criti-
cism of the New York Presbytery's action
with regard TO the sale of the church of
Sea and Land" were offered at the
monthly meeting of the Presbytery here.
today. Dir. ParkhuTsb was absent hav-
ing left the city for two weeks rest, but
his friends We're present in force. DR..
Chambers, having the resolution in charge,
made long statement based upon the
records Of the Presbytery, giving in detail
the facts in regard TO the proposed sale of
the property and terms Of the occupancy,
pending the sale by the Madison Square
church, of which DR.. Parkhurst is pastor.
He prcfaced his statement with a
whereas setting forth the fact of the inter
view with DR.. Parkhurst in which the
proposed sale was characterized by the
eminent reformer as cold blooded viola
ton of solemn contract which is rs true
as the everlasting gospel II was an act
which, had it been committed in Wall
street, would have furnished the clerical
members of the Presbytcry with what they
would have considered juicy material for
a homiletical exploitation.
Following this preamble were extracts
from the Presbytcry S records showing that
the decision to sell the ''Sea and Land"
church ante-dated the arrangement with
DIR. Parkhurst's church by nearly u year
and half; the occupancy of the church
by DIR. Parkhurst's session was for u year
only, and the session of the Madison
Square church stipulated in writing that
I'VE would not wish to obligated our
selves or as the Presbytery to obligate
itself beyond year that the subsequent
action in regard TO the sale of the church
was made subject to an agreement with
the Madison Square church, and that part
of the proceeds of the sale We're to be used
in planting mission in the neighborhood
of the church, which would be available as
q field for the work carried ON in the Sea
and Land building by DIR. Parkhurst' S
session.
DIR. John Hall opposed the resolutions
in the interests of peace and harmony. He
objected to the references in the preamble
to DR., Parkhurst and the Madison Square
church. He asked TO have the names
stricken out Authorize tho officers of
the Presbytery, he said, "to print and
circulate u statement as far as you wish,
but omit all personal references to
brother whom we love and respect. Let
the statement rest of the facts and let the
newspaper interviews be attributed to this
brother alone The public will be able to
compare the statement of facts authorized
by us with the newspaper references and
adjudieate upon them as they see fit. -
