Cumberlands Beat the Northern Pres
byterians.
Efhe Wilson.


In the United States Court yesterday
morning Judge Mccall dismissed the
suit of Robert p Stewart and others
against w. w. Mitchell and others, up
on the ground that he had no iurisdic-
ton in the matter. The suit was filed
by nonresident members of the Pres
terian Church, U. S. A., at Greenfield,
Tenn, in which it was sought to enjoin
members of the Cumberland Presbyte-
rian Church at that place from interfer-
ing with possession of property valued
at $17, 900
For the same reasons Judge Mccall
also dismissed the suit of G. NJ. Ross
and other nonresident members of the
Presbyterian Church, U. S, A., at Sa-
vannah, against Robert Hurst and other
members of the Cumberland Presbyte-
rian Church at that place
The court held that since the interests
of the nonresident members Of the
church as plaintiffs were evidently iden-
tcal with one set of defendants within
the State, the federal court should not
assume jurisdiction, and the case was
proper matter for the State Courts to
decide. He accordingly denied the in
functions asked in both cases and order
ed them dismissed.
The filing of both suits last month
followed a decision of the Tennessee Su-
preme Court, by which it was held the
union of Presbyterian Church with the
Cumberland Presbyterian Church, in
May, 1906, was invalid Cumberland
members, at that time opposed to the
union, asserted they would take steps to
gain possession of church property oc-
cupied by the unionists. The suits were
intended to forestall such a move on the
part of the Cumberland forces.
The absence of attorneys caused the
indefinite postponement of arguments
in the Court Avenue Presbyterian
Church suit, in the United States Court
this morning The suit was filed re-
Gently by the Court Avenue Presbyte-
rian church, U. S. A, of Kentucky,
against the First Cumberland Presbyte-
rian Church of Memphis, and others,
and sought to restrain the defendants
from interfering with the plaintiffs pos
session of the church property.

Cumberland Presbyterians Get Them
for Legal Battle.

Bentonville, Ark, May 22.-As a
result of pledges made to-day fund in
excess of $40, 900 will be at the disposal
of the Legal Board of the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church, with which to
fight court battles in connection with
the contention of the Presbyterian
Church of the United States that the
property of the Cumberland Church
should go with those members, the
majority of whom amalgamated with
the latter organization several years
ago,
Of the amount more than half came
in individual subscriptions. The contri-
buttons range from one of $500 from
F. E. Allen, of Richardson, Tex, to
the IS mite. The amount raised to-day
is exclusive of that already in hand for
specified litigation.
AFFECTING INCIDENTS.
Contrary to expectations, the discus
sion of the property question to-day be-
fore the General Assembly was brief,
beginning and ending with one address
by Rev j. L. Hudgins, of Union City,
Tenn, who appealed for the required
funds. Before the noon recess two
thirds of the amount was secured and
tonight as much more was pledged,
bringing the total in excess of amount
asked for. While the greater part of
the responses were for small amounts,
$50 or less, the large number respond
ing made up the total. One aged man
past 80 years and poor as church
mouse, it was announced, was assisted
to his feet that he might pledge $25.
The other extreme was reached when a
little girl, not yet in her teens, pledged
her So. Several Indians in attendance
contributed, one with check for 500.
NIGHTLY STIRRED.
An incident in the recording of
pledges which brought the assembly to
it's feet and transferred staid assem-
blage into a cheering crowd was the
reading of dispatch from Judge w. G.
Caldwell, general counsel of the Legal
Board, which announced that the Fed
eral Court in Tennessee had refused to
take jurisdiction in several cases in
which valuable property was the issue.
The cheering continued after several
moments, though the contributions
continued and with faster regularity.
This afternoon was given over to the
deliberations of the several committees.

of the Board Of Ministerial Relief was
held

SEVEN HEAD DIE OF HEAT PROS.
TRATIoN IN NORTHERN LIS.
COMB TOWNSHIP.
DEATH TO CATTLE
FROM HEAT UNUSUAL
Animals Wore in Pasture, and So Far
as Known Were Not Driven or Elk.
cited-Were Dead Before Owner
Bart st. Clair, Knew of Their Con-
diton.

The death of cattle from heat pros
tration, a very unusual occurrence,
was reported in the city today from
northern Liscomb township, where
Bart st. Clair, who occupies the E. B.
Emes farm, three miles south of Con-
rad, lost seven head in the intense tor
ridity of last Thursday
The cattle were in the pasture, and
as far as Mr.. st. Clair knows there
was nothing that could have taken
place to have caused undue excitement
to the animals. or to have caused them
to take any violent exercise. 1t is pos
sible, however. that the animals drank
too much cold water from tank fed
by a windmill, which was placed in the
pasture.
While cattle seldom succumb to or
dinary excessive hot weather, hogs, on
the other hand, are much more suscep-
tible to it and frequently die when the
temperature reaches the stage attained
Thursday. AS old and fattened hogs
have been pretty well cleaned out of
the county, however, on account of pre-
vailing high prices, but little loss from
that source has resulted.
Alva Stewart, of this city, who learn
ed of the particulars OF the case, SAYS
he never knew of a precisely similar
incident, that is of cattle perishing
simply from heat, without having been
driven or otherwise exercised.
