FEDERATION FIGHT
IS GROWING WARM
No Vote is Reached on the
Subject
UNIVERSITY TURNED DOWN
President Roosevelt Sends Message to
Winona La.;e Expressing Hope
That Union Will Soon
Come.
UNIVERSITY TURNED DOWN

Fort Worth, Tex, May 25.-The South
ern Presbyterian general assembly ad-
journed at Ii o'clock tonight without
having taken a vote on the question of
federation with other branches of the
Presbyterian church, nearly all the even
ing session having been taken up by an
argument by DR.. C. r. Hemphill pf Louis
ville KY DIR. Hemphill spoke for an
hour and a half on the subject fayoring
cooperation.
The minor portion of the afternoon ses-
sion was also taken up with the discus
sion of federation, and although it was
the understanding when the assembly re-
cessed to take the final vote before adj
journment tonight, this was not done.
The debates have been spirited through
out and many of the strong men of the
body have taken part in them.
Among the leaders III j, S. Lyons of
Louisville favors federation and DR.. Eu-
gene Daniel of Lewisburg, w. Va, ops
posed federation
The convention is believed to be about
equally divided on the subject. The ques-
ton will cpme up for discussion tomor-
row and will probably consume much of
the days session.
A committee report Recommending the
establishment Of university for the
southern church at Atlanta was voted
down today.
University Turned Down.
The principal feature of the morning
session of the Southern Presbyterian gen
eral assembly was a discussion OF the
project of establishing a university for
the entire southern church at Atlanta,
Ga.
he report of the standing committee
on church and Christian education which
was reported yesterday was again read.
General debate followed the reading of
the report.
The theory of those who opposed adopt
ing the favorable report of the committee
was that such an institution should have
more than 81 100000 to start on, and that
If there Is to be a school for higher
education, one of the existing schools
Should be chosen rather than build a
new one. The question was finally set
tied by an amendment being offered to
the effect that the general assembly does
not now see its way clear to undertake
such an enterprise, but at the same time
appreciates the work of those who have
been pushing the question and wishes
them success in their undertaking, pro-
vided they choose to carry it on indie
pendent of the general assembly for the
sake of the synod or the section OF the
country Immediately surrounding Atlanta.
There were many commissioners who
stood firm for the proposed institution
but these were out numbered two to one
