COLUMBUS. OHIO, May 23 —Be- j

■eversed, latest returns gradually <’Ut-|

Governor Harmon held on incomplete '
returns, and although he has safelv ‘

seems from present Indications that
the Roosecelt forces will control the
state convention by fl vote of 387 to
372. Latest returns indicate Governor
Judson Harmon has won 27 district
delegates against IS for Wilson. The
Harmon forces will undoubtedly con

Analysis of the returns shows that
Colonel Roosevelt’s strength wag not

Roosevelt managers made much of an
incident involving the town of White

of good fortune.

voters were disqualified a year ago
because of election corruption, Roose

HERESY CHARGES
Presbyterians Pigeonhole the
Briggs Case at Louisville.
“Tama Jim” Squelched.
—,—
LOUISVILLE, KY„ May 23.—That
the general assembly of the Presbyte
rian church will com* to a close with
out ’any beresj’ charges being brought
to the front seems certain. The Union
seminary case, which was a sequel
of the famous Brigg? css*, was quick
ly disposed of by granting another
year's time in which to endeavor to es
tablish amicable relations between th*
assembly and the seminary.
Charges of unorthodox teachings in
th* graded lessons, and that some of
the members of the board of publica
tion and Sabbath school work were not
orthodox, caused a flurry, but It was
quickly settled, after a vehement de
nial of the charge had been made, by
a rulfng of Moderator Mark Matthews
that.suet insinuations will not be per
mitted before the assembly tn the fu
ture.
The assembly then authorized the
appointment of a committee w ith pow
er to withdraw from circulation any
graded lessons found objectionable.
Farmer Jim Wilson "Revoked."
Th* most drastic Action the assem
bly has taken was the adoption of the
resolution which reconsidered the elec
tion of Secretary of Agriculture James
. \ViJson as a delegate.to the Pan-Pres
byterian council in Aberdeen Scot
land, in jf>l3 because he acted as chair
man of the Brewers’ congress in Chi
cago .last year "in the fact of a mighty
protest from the religious forces of our
land." This action of the assembly
bars Wilson and makes It necessary for
th* synod of Baltimore to name another
in his place.
