An application for an injunction forbidding the Cumberland Pres byterian church from retaining property in seventeen Missouri counties has been filed With the United States circuit court hero. The complainant is the Presby terian church of the United States through its officers, James M. Bnrkley, moderator of the general asssembly, and Wlllam H. Roberts clerk of the general assembly and secretary of the executive mission. The case will be hoard by. Judge John F. Philips in the January session of his court. i According to the petition, the Cumberland church became amal gamated with the other in 1905. The merger, it 1b alleged, was ac cording to law and with the con sent of the management of both parties, but a certain dissenting faction not only refused to recog nize tho ntfw arrangement but al so refused to give up tho original church property, valued at over a million dollars in Missouri alone. The petition further charges that A. M. Buchannan, W. Green, L. F. Clemens, J. W. Duval and R. L. Lawrtan, "representing tho synod of the former Cumberland Presbyterian church of Missouri have been engaged actively in in citing and furthering a conspiracy to take the property of tho Pres byterian church of the United States for their own use and ben efit. The counties where the proper ty is located are.: Saline, Clark, Linn, Dent, Greene, Lafayette, Jackson, Charlton, Lawrence, Ma con, Schuyler, Buchanan, Vernon Bates, Randolph, neury and John son. It consists mainly in build ing lots and church buildings, but several farms are Included. In the early part of the last century tho, rapid growth of the original church and. the high tstan- dardd adopted for its ministry brought about a coinutitlon of af fairs which finally .caused a part of the. following to break off Into a separata organization with Its own special head, rules and by laws. The contention; wss over who should. i be admitted to the pulpit to preach the Presbyterian doc trine. The old church said that in view of the fact that there were more hew churches than eligible preachers, laymen should be al lowed to conduct services until a regular pastor could be supplied. The schism is said to have been the most peculiar in church history The new arrangement advocates were in the majority and maintain ed the charter and name of the old church; wlile the conservatives who held rigidly to principles hand ed down since the beginning, broke away Into a sort of a reform party and adopted a new name. "The principles of the two Pres- i i i , . uficrwn cnurcnes 'were very much the same," said a Presby terian minister last night. "The difference always lay in the atti tude of the church toward the question of laymen supplying the pulpit. It becamo an obsolete one, however. As time went on. the church educated hundreds of young men to the ministry. There was no longer a need of using lay - men 10 conuuet services in tier meeting houses, as in our grandfathers' time. "When the condition becamo generally recognized among the brethern of the Cumberland Presbyterian church, they 'were willing to merge-again and lose their identity as a separate organ ization. Tho amalgamation Was performed in 1905. It was then found that there was a party in the so-called reform church that wanted to retain its' independence and its property, particularly, we believe the later." Attorney Frank Hagerman who will represent the original church in the proceedings, said last night that subpoenas has already been served in the case and that it would bo fought to a finish with the idea of settling the legality of tho merger permanently. "It will finally be taken to the supreme court of the United StateB to decide," said he "The thing has been threshed upon a good deal in state courts. It is still a question which is right in its contention and which in wrong Tennessee and Missouri courts have declared that the merger is illegal.
