In March 23 , 1893 , that no charges have ovi
been filed against him with the Hoard <
Public Lands and Buildings , and that 1

four years more. Notwithstanding no charg
have bien filed. Governor Holcomb has a ;
pointed Luther J. Abbott , and claims to hai
removed Hay.by the service ot a notice of r
moval for cause good and sufficient to tl
governor. According to the attorney gener
the situation of both claimants is that eat
Is fitted by medical knowledge to fill the offl
nd each gives It out that be Is the only re
upTintendent. That the seemly conduct
public affairs requires a speedy judicial dote
mlnatlon of the rights ot the parties ai
which 1s entitled to the office , and that the 01
without any color of right be ousted. I
therefore asks that both b required to appe
everally. answer this Information , and she
by what right each claims the office. I
asks that the court speedily hear Uie cise ai
the one found guilty ot unlawfully clalmli
tbe office be ousted. Tbe defendants have u

governor's decision In Investigation , we
cent to the doctors. Dr. Abbott has filed li
official bond , which has been approved by t

ALTERNATIVn PLAN PROPOSED.
There Is a plan on foot to secure the adot
Ion of an alternative report replacing that <
he committee. H Is proposed to recommen
hat In vlsvv of the answers made by the d
ectors ot the existing seminaries settln
orth their unwillingness to make any chai
er changes , these seminaries be lot olom
nd that the restrictions that have been dt
Ised by the committee will be applied enl
o institutions that may hereafter bo chai
ered This plan will have strong backln
nd will meet with goad support.
Union seminary in New York Is the bet
olre of the conservative element In this ai
lembly. This was shown In the mornln
icsslon , when it was referred to as the caus
if all this disturbance Dr Brlgga ho
carcely been mentioned and the odlui
vhlch attached to him has been transferre
o the seminary directors In New York Or
f the speakers declared that when they r <
mdlated their agreement with the assembl
hey took out valuable endowments whlc
longed properly to the church as such.
One of the strong objections to the pla
if the committee on seminary control !
hat it involves recourse to ths civil court
'or the settlement of ecclesiastical dlffei
nces The answer to this made by a lawy <
ke Mr. McDougall was regarded by some i
sort ot steclal pleading , and his referent
o creatures of Caesar appealing to Caesi
Called to carry conviction to all.
Thus far nothing has been heard ot tl
rilans for the deposing of Dr. Briggs. whlc
tvera said to be under serious conslderatloi

date.
date.Tho first quarter of an hour w
given to miscellaneous business , and i
hat point the floor was again accorded
Dr. McKlnney , whose speech last night wi
Interrupted by adjournment. His argumei
concerned the objection that the plan pr
posed will act as a barrier to union wll
.he southern Presbjterian church , and tl
ipeaker claimed that the action of tha churc
.iad taken more extreme action than that no
under consideration. It was also claimed th ;
the plan was fully In accord with the polli
of the Presbyterian church , and those wl
objected to recourse to the civil courts I
ecclesiastical bodies , were characterized ;
"supersplritual advocates. " The speaker pr
ceedod to consider the attitude ot the Bern
narles and rcgrettsd their unwillingness i
Indisposition to do what the last assemb
suggested , and urgea by an overwhelm ! !
vote. He closed with a plea for a large m
.orlty In tavor of the committee's recomme :
datlon.
Hon. E E. White of Columbus , the ne
president of the board of directors of Lai
seminary , was granted the floor , but befo
he began an attempt was made to limit tl
time of debate. It was briefly discussed , b
ov rwhelmlngly defeated. The moderator a
nounccd plenty of time , no favor and a cle
field.
Judge White began in a cool and dellbera
way to set forth the position of the partite
to the question. He asked that the assemb
come to a clear understanding of the condltli
of affairs. It was urged that the last asser
bly had sent down overtures to the semlna
dlrectori s , and that the answers that ha
come back should be regarded as final n ;
conclusive , and that they should be treat
with respect. On the contrary , the comml
tee has asked the assembly to accept Its Jud
ment and dictum In place of the mature Jud
ment ot the directors ot the seminaries und
advice of counsel and thoroughly acquaint
with the facts. This was called "a lar
contract. "
UNION THE CAUSE OF MISTRUST.
After reviewing the position of the semlna
jes and showing that Us plan is impractical !
In regard to come of them , Judge Wh
urged that tbe matter be dropped. He ask
what the cause of the distrust In the chur
has been , and a voice from the audlen
called out , "Union seminary. "
"Yes , " replied the spsaker , "and becai
Union did it therefore Princeton must gi
the bonds , but for this reason discredit shot
not be thrown upon the other semlna
boards "
When mention was made of the report tl
had gone out of Cincinnati regarding Li
smlnary directors a convntssloner jumped
his feet and made a point of order agad
such mention. The moderator refused to n
on the question , but requested the speaker
exerctao care in the Una of his dlscour
The remainder of Dr. White's address had r
erence to the history ot Lane seminary , she
Ing that Its original endorsements had be
made on a liberal basis and charter , and st
Ing that there had been changes In the c <
itltutlon of Ohio which nuke alterations
the seminary charter Impossible , without
feeling all the educational Institutions In I
state. Strong objection was mada to I
appended statement ot Dr. Young made y
terday that no seminary Is a Presbyterian
stltutlon which cannot make the changes p
posed by the committee.
Judg ? White spoke for over an hour , e
after a brief Introduction by Dr. W A Muti
more , who replaced Dr. Young a * chairman
the committee , Mr. Thomas McDougall
Cincinnati was introduced as a member of I
committee. He addressed himself first to t
objections that assembly control would aft
the title to trust funSs and that seminar
which cannot make the changes proposed
undenominational and nonpresbyterian.
OMAHA AS AN EXAMPLE.
Answering the question as to how the o
dltloni proposed by tbe commute * could
adopted by the seminaries , he cited the c
ot the Omaha seminar- , which had put th
Into its articles ot Incorporation. Ho ass-r
that the funds of the Union seminary la N
York are held under a charter which is
frea Irani the control of the courts of
Presbyterian church 11 the Standard Oil cc
pany la and that any typo of theology can
taught there which is not repugnant to
laws of the state of New York. The eei
narles were said to be civilized corporatli
and. therefore creatures of Cjear which n
justly bo brought before- Caesar for ju
ment. Tha general assembly la not a le
entity and cannot have a standing in
courts of the country unless the right
given by the seminaries through changes
the charters.
The tlmeot the esaton was extended flft
minutes to allow Mr. McDoug ll to DnUh. i
at the cb o the floor was cl > ea to Dr. W.
Thompson , president of the Miami unlversltj
at Oxford , O ,
Just nt the time of adjournment n telegrnn
ot greeting was read from the Presbyterlai
