PRESBYTER|ANS ASK
FINAL DISPOSITION
Of HERESY CASES
Sentiment in Assembly Is for
Immediate Trial of Semi
nary Head.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 22.-When
the second week Of the Presbyterian
General Assembly opened today chief
interest was in the outcome of the va
rious heresy trials and the action on
the reports OF the committees on depart
mental consolidation, church union, and
church extension to the masses.
So far as the report of the judicial
committee in the Brown case was con-
cerned, it was generally accepted that
it would report in favor of Immediately
placing the president of Union Theo-
logical Seminary on trial. There is a
general feeling among the delegates thai
the question should be finally disposed
of, and all preachers not doctrinally
sound compelled to sever their connec-
ton with the Presbyterian ministry.
Those who believe DR.. Brown and
others will be forced out Of the church
point to a paragraph in Moderator Car
sons sermon Of yesterday as bearing
ont their contention. He said:
The church must accept and believe
the Bible without equivocation or COM
promise, and must proclaim its full
orbed revelation
