Account of Heretical Views.
Professor George Uurman Foster on
Monday was expelled from the Chica
go Baptist Ministers' Conference be
cause of the 'alleged heretical beliefs
expressed In his recent book on "The

tho organization at its weekly meeting
decided by a vote of 40 to 10 to drop
the University of Chicago professor

not affect Professor Foster's standing
as a Baptist minister, but simply ad
vocates disapproval of him and takes
from him the right of fellowship In
the conference. The resolution finally
passed was strfpped ot all unnecessary
verblaee, and in such form was able
to command the support of a number
who disliked the sort of tactics pur
sued by the foes of Professor Foster.
As Introduced by Rev. Johnston My
ers, leader of tho anti-Foster forces,

ious accusations against Professor Fos
ter and declared his retention in the

tion. It also called upon the trustees
of the University of Chicago to dismiss
Professor Foster from the faculty of
the Institution, With the consent of
Mr. Myers the resolution was amended
and simplified until its final form, as
passed, was as follows: "Resolved,
That the Baptist Ministers' Conference
