Czar rebukes OR Conwell over Baptist seminary bid
In St Petersburg on July 31 the Holy Synod rejected appeals by Rev. Dr Russell H. Conwell of Philadelphia and Rev. F. B. Meyer of London to grant site for an international Baptist seminary. The czar will not receive them nor allow any ground for the project. The Synod says concessions to Baptists would require removal from politically subservive serf lists, and the sect is not recognized as a religion. Moscow prefect orders police vigilance over sectarians and nonconformists from the state church.
