UNION 1 #"lff 1
j CHURCHES’
Church is Bitterly Op
posed to Consolidation With Pres

Stdv
Jau. 4. YjOfn in* 13
of the Presbyterian and Cumberland
Presbyterian church throughout the
country are deeply interested in an
Injunction suit that came up for
hearing today in the appellate court
of this city. The injunction seeks to
prevent the union of the two religious
bodies and was filed 'ey Mijfhers of
the Cumberland Presbytojan church.
No apparent opposltionmto the un
ion exists among the mernVrs of the
Presbyterian church of thV United
States.
The general assembly of
herland Presbyterian church
annual meeting held In 1903 at Bash '
ville. Tcnn., passed a rtscUition'suh
mlttlng the question of union of the
two branches of the denomination to
a vote of the membership.
At the general assembly held In
1905. at Fresno, Cal., the vote of the
Cumberland membership was can
vassed and showed a majority in fa
vor of union.
At the meeting of the general as
sembly of the Cumberland church,
held last May at Decatur, 111., the
proposed union w4s decided upon.
There was a minority report, how
ever, as many members of the Curn
iierland Presbyterian church are bit
terly opposed to the merger with the
Presbyterian church of the United
States. The minority report recited
the fact that a total of $7,390,560
worth of property belonging to the
Cumberland church, or under its con
trol, would revert to the Presbyterian
church, and the objecting members
held that there was no authority in
the constitution of the Cumberland
church which sanctioned such a step.
On the contrary,, they held that It
was directly opposed to both the spirit
and the letter of the fundamental
laws of the church.
James Milliken university, of De
catur, 111., is one of the institutions
controlled by the Cumberland Presby
terian church, and as the last general
assembly of the church was held in
that city, injunction proceedings to
prevent the consummation of the un
ion were commenced there by mem
bers of the congregation who are op
posed to the change.
It is these proceedings that are now
up for hearing and the result, of whlcn
is awaited with keen interest by the
members of the two churches every
where.

The city council will have only one
