Cincinnati Clergy Hope to
Table Move to Expel
New York Presbytery.
QUESTION TO COME UP
AT TO-DAY'S MEETING
Ohio Presbyterians Find That
IS Other Boards Have Or
dained Union Graduates.

Cincinnati. May 14.-At a meeting OF
the Presbytery of Cincinnati, to be held
tomorrow, movement will be
launched TO rescind the action taken NJ
the last meeting, when a recommends
tion was made that the General Assem-
bly, expel the Presbytcry of New York
for licensing certain Union Thcologi-
cal Seminary students.
Local opposition to the action Of a
month ago, which startled Presbyterian
of the entire country, has been quietly
gathering strength and will measure
forces with supporters of the overture
at the meeting tomorrow.
Change In Sentiment.
A number OF forces are responsible
for the change in the sentiment among
Cincinnati Presbyterisns. Among these
is the following statement Of the Mod
orator of the Presbytery Of New York,
the Rev. II. G. Mendenhall, which fatty
contradicts the statements made before
the Presbytery Of Cincinnati:
There has evidently been q misun-
dcrstandlng as TO the attitude Of GER
tain young men who have sought or
dinstion, on the question Of . doctrinsl
nature; for example. they have been
spoken OF as denying any belief In the
virgin birth. As q matter Of fact, they
declared that they believed in the pre-
existence of Christ as person and his
incarnation as Jesus of. Nazareth. They
did not deny a belief in the virgin
birth. All three of the candidates eX-
pressed their belief in the miracles OF
the Lord, in the raising Of Lazarus
from the dead, and in the resurrec-
ton of our Lord Himself and his APP
pearance TO his disciples as reported
in the Gospels.
"The Presbytery Of New York is
heartily and fully loyal to the evan
gelcal faith and the standards of the
PRESBYTERIAN Church. II is careful and
Jealous in upholding that faith and
those standards. 1t has never defed
nor does il intend TO defy, the author
ity Of the General Assembly. for whose
deliverances it has the highest re-
spect.'
Others Ordained Union Graduates.
Another element which enters into
the force working for a resembling OF
the former action of this Presbytery IS
the fact that the Presbytery Of New
York is not the only presbytery which
has ordained graduates of the theologi-
cal seminary complained OF.
1t is shown that twenty-eight other
presbyteries have accepted graduates
of this seminary, and that. while the
Presbytery Of New York has ordained
twenty-three of them, the Presbytery
of Brooklyn has ordained eighteen, the
Presbytery of Westchester four. the
Presbytery of Hudson four, the Pres
bytery of Jersey City four, the Pres
bytery of Morris and Orange four, and
the Presbytery Of Nassau three. The
twenty-nine presbyteries referred to
have ordained eighty-four graduates Of
Union Seminary since 1908.

REASON FOR HIS DRAGGING

when searching the letters Of his de.

were determined to take our field bah-
cry, but, by gee! we would not let
them. We killed them in thousands"
This was a letter from one OF the
bakers to his wife. None of the de.
tachment had been a mile from the
base. and they had never seen a Ger.
man, except as a prisoner. My friend
knew the writer well, and could net
help ~(although 1t was zone of his bust.

terrible lies to his poor wife. The sol.
der said:
