ORDINATION TO GO ON.
DR.. Buchanan Thinks There WM Be
No Oppositi0n to Graduates.

II is proba BILE that no active steps will be taken
by members OF the New York Presbytery to pre-
vent the ordination of the three Union Theological
Seminary graduates whose licenses to preach were
granted Monday after a REORGANIZATION at
which many objectIo1s raised to their position
on dogma. The young men are Archibald Black
brother of the Rev. DR.. Hugh Black; John E. Steen
and George J. Fitch.
The Rev Dr. Waiter D. Buchanan, pastor of the
Fourth Avenue Presbyterian Church, said last
night that while he felt it would be wise for him
TO reserve an expression of personal opinion lie
not think hat any member of the Presbytery would
oppose the ordination appeal from the will OF
the majority the General Assembly in this mat
ter. DR.. Buchanan added:
These young men appeared once before the Pres
bytery and expressed doctrines at variance with
the fundamental beliefs of the Church. Two
months later they changed their views, and the
Presbytery accepted their confession of faith
satisfactory. I do not think that any would
trv to prevent them from being ordained"
The Rev. DR.. John Fox. secretary Of the Ameri-
can Bible Society, would not discuss the approach
ing ordination of the students.
Il believe in the Bible from to cover.
That's all can say the subject" said DIR. Fox.
DR. Buchanan and DR.. Fox were the leaders Of
the conservative element at the meeting OF the
Presbytery.
There is general feeling among the conservative
Presbyterians assembled from all parts of the
world in the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church
that the New York Presbytery has made a mis-
take licensing the three young graduates of the
Union Theological Seminary and approving the
teachings of that institution. The Rev. Dr.. David
6 Wylie pastor Of the Scotch Presbyterian Church,
who member Of the examining COMMITTEES
