SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, May PAT 9
O'Clock tonight the seventy-second general
assembly Of the Cumberland Presbyterian
church adjourned. Fine fraternal spirit
pervaded the closing s~ession-indeed, there
has not been an unbrotherly speech made
during the whole session, although grave
questions we're at issue and much sup
pressed feeling has existed. Every ap-
pearance Of discomfort has disappeared.
Early in the afternoon session the theo-
logical seminary matter was called up and
the majority and minority reports having
been withdrawn the assembly enthusiastic-
ally and almost unanimously adopted the
report upon which during the morning the
theological seminary committee had agreed.

WEDNESDAYS SELLERS
CHANGE FRONT.
Receipts at Western Points Light
and Weather News Mainly
Bearish-

Both wheat and corn opened higher in
yesterdays local market and buying con-
I tinued fairly good throughout the session.
Traders who oversold Wednesday were back
in the pit on the buying side. Small specu-
lators and scalpers were most active,
though a few professionals aided in the
movement to keep values steady. Much of
the news was bearish, but trade conditions
would not warrant a further decline. Re
ceipts at Western points were generally
light and foreign markets were weak.
