TO MOVE LUTHERAN SEMINARY No Decision Mado Yot as to Future Location of the Institution, but United Synod Decides to Raise Fifty Thousand Dollars for Enlarging and Equipping a New Seminary. News and Courier. As was anticipated, the United Synods of the Lutheran church of the South have decided to remove the Theological Seminary from Mount Pleasant. That action, according to a dispatch received last night by the Nows and Courier from its correspondent in Savannah, where the Synod is now in session, was decided upon yesterday. It was also decided to offer back to the village of Mount Pleasant the property it has given the Seminary. No decision has vet been made as In (he future location of the Seminary, hut I lie Synod did decide to raise $.">0,000 for enlarging and equipping a new Seminary, and ' provided for a committee composed of one delegate from each Synod to carry out this plan. "When it was planned to use the words 'receive bids' for erecting (lie new buildings," says the dispatch to the News and Courier, "Capt. J. C. Seegers, of Columbia, a delegate to the Synod, in a straightforward ii| speech declared that the 'receiving v of bids is gambling and nothing else.' His words created a sensation in the , conference, but, served to cut the obKioctionable words out of the resolutions passed by the Synod." The ITon. John D. Cappelmann, who las been in attendance upon the Sylod, returned to Charleston yesterlay morning. Air. Cappelmann was ?cn by a reporter for the News and courier and made the following statement : "The matter of the removal of the Theological Seminary from Mount Pleasant came up yesterday on the report, of the standing committee, to r whom had been referred with other matters appertaining to the Semi^ nary the report of the board of rliree- j . tors ("of the Seminary) presented i through Hon. John 1<\ Thicken, secretary of the board. Tt should be stat[ ed that the prevailing objection to the location of the Seminary on Mount Pleasant was its inaccessibility, causing students, professors and visitors great inconvenience in attending lectures in Charleston, and in visiting and receiving visits from their ft iends. This special committee recommended that the Seminary he removed from Mount Pleasant to a ' more central location. "Aifter much discussion on thir proposition a vote was finally tak_.. I on the recommendation of the board of directors embraced in the above report to the effect, that the people of Charleston should have until the first of May, 1000. to locate the t Seminary in Charleston, and if removal |o Charleston be not assured by that time 'that thereafter the board be authorized to locate the Seminary I at some point other than Mount PlcasV within the bounds of United SyB proposition was lost and by P this action it was clearly shown that the controlling sentiment was against S gi\ ing ( harleston the exclusive right ^ j*''1,10 tll?> Seminary for the time J limits. It was strongly urged that B Seminary ought to be located nearer the centre of the population from which students are to come, so H that vacant charges might be served B readily by assignments from the Seminary. 0 "The delegates from Charleston on Wa the floor of Synod were the Rev.

Pleasant had made sac.rifices and had expended large sums fur the purchase and pouiinnent of tlie Seminarv. He asked thai .the Lutheran people of Charleston, at least, lie given an opportunity to arrange for taking over the institution. "JJew M. (). (!. Seherer, of Char lost on. stressed the latter point. He claimed th... good faith demands that the people of Charleston bo allowed some time in determining what is to be done with the Seminary.
