Progress of movement toward church union debated
Lexixoroy Ky May 25 In the Presbyterian general assembly the committee on bills and overtures reported that organic union with the northern church cannot be entertained due to essential doctrinal differences. The assembly declined to appoint a conference committee and adopted the report. A telegram from Saratoga announced fraternal relations have been established and no further action is needed. The Cumberland Presbyterian assembly at Nashville adjourned after noting a healthy state and proposing union with the Evangelical Lutherans. Dr Brown of the southern delegation praised the merger prospects and the assembly sang. The Baptist missionary union in Saratoga elected officers and reported receipts and missions. The American Baptist Woman's Missionary Society met in Saxonoto with receipts of 283,044 and plans for large fundraising.
