EMPHATIC DENIAL MADE
When Rumor Reached German Gov.

Berlin, July 12- Germany has TAX

statement that could be construed in
to antagonism of the American gov
ernment in what that government
has done, is doing, or may do, in
Nicarauga. This declaration was
made at the German Foreign Office
this evening.
Special dispatches received here
from Amer can cities reported that
the German foreign office had issued
a statement today that Germany re-
fuses to recognize any right on the
part of the United States to super
wise ne diplomatic relations with
other countries, Central and South

Nicarauga in particular"
When this repora was placed be
fore the foreign office 1t was given
emphatic denial.
The German government officials
are greatly wrough up by attempts
made to have this country appear in
. role of antagonism to the United
States The present situation has
arisen from the publication Of a let
ter from the emperor to Madriz, pres
ident defaco of Nicarauga,, In several
quarters 1t is apparently s gnificant
that the letter has ben misiudged,

UNION IS UPHELD
PRESBYTERIAN CONTROVERSY
IN ARKANSAS SUPREME
COURT
Sustans Vote by Which Presbyterian
Church of u. S. and Cumber-
land Branch Were
United.

Little Rock, Ark, July 12.-Tha
Supreme Court today through Chiet
Justice McCollouch, handed down an
opinion in lthe noted Presbyter an
union case, reytrs'ng the lower court
and sustaining the union voted on by
the Presbytery of the Presbyterian
church, United States Of America,
and thc Cumberland Presbyter an
church in 1906, declaring the union III
every way valid and constituted not
only \ union in faith. but in property
interests as well. Two of the five
judges--Hart and Wood-dessented
The litigation goes back to 1906,
when a vote was taken among the
Presby.eries on the question OF union
between The two branches. lndiyidutl
churches in many instances attacked
the validity of the vote and even OF
the whole proposition of merger A
congregation of Cumberland PresDy'
terans at Artesa worshiped in
church that had been dedicated dis
tnctly to the Cumberland 4 resby-
terian faith.
Congregation Divided.
After the result OF the vote in 1906
was announced that element of the
congregation which favored union ar
ranged to ADJUST the church to It's
new relations as part of the Pres
hyterian church United States OF
America Those who stood out
against the union contended that
church property could not be set
apart to any use except for the Cum
berland presbyterian church; that
when il ceased to be used for that 1t
ceased to be church property.
II was also contended that these
who sanctioned the union ideas had
lost Cher relation as part OF the con-
gregation and had no right to voice
in the management of its affairs.
The matter went to the circuit court,
where it was decided that the ele-
ment of the church opposing union
were right In their contention and
the un'onists were prohibited from
interfering with the church property
or changing in any manner tine old
order under the Cumberland Presby-
terian connection.

Ing on both sides after having con
tested the same grounds in eight other
states. II was urged by those oppos-
ing The union that vote had never
been taken on the question of union
as regards the rights of property taat
If vote on union was effective at all
1t was surely on question of faith and
worship, and did not disturb the form
er rights OF individual congregations
to control their church property at
ter the manner n force before any
vote had been taEea on the question
of nnion faith
The supreme courts of both Mis-
souri, and Tennessee, is is said, have
sustained this contention, aud have
thus found for the Cumberland Pres
byterlans in the matter of their right
to remain IN control and direction OF
their church property.
Whole Union Considered.
The Arkansas Supreme court holds
the vote was taken on the Whole
scheme of union, and not merely on
whether or not the Cumberland Pres
byterian church would adopt the ar
tilce of faith of the Presbyterian
church. IT, s. A.. as revised to 1908.
In reaching the conclusion the
court refers to the instructions sent
out to the presbyteries by the moJer
ator of the general assembly of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church
when preliminaries were arranged for
the vote. These instructions, say the
court, are clear and conclusive as to
the intention of the church to vote
on the entire plan of the union, In
volving property rights as well as
union in matters Of faith. Otherwise
the court observes, that 1t would be
attr1buting to members of the presby-
terry a less than average degree of IN
telligence, and this would be entirely
unreasonable. No grounds would
justify reaching conclusion that
presbytery was not made of men OF
average intelligence, or above the av-
erage intelligence, in ability to in
terpret the language referring to the
vote.
Reasons for Opinion.
Furthermore it is conceded, says
the court, that the rules governing
the two branches of the churches
would permit of an action looking 10
the merging of interest, practices and
faiths, and, in the light of the facts
surrounding the entire proceedings,
1t is the conclusion of majority OF
the court that such action was
properly. regularly and logically TAX
