SUNDAY MEETINGS.
J>UNEDIN TRAMWAY UNION. Press Association. DUNEDIN, November 23. At the Presbyterian General Assembly to-day, the following motion, moved by the Rev. R. Inglis, was carried:— "That the General Assembly, having had its attention called to a case in which the Dunedln Tramways Union inflicted a fine upon one of its members for absenting himself without apology from business meetings of the union held on Sundays, such action having been subsequently declared legal in a court of law, expresses its strong protest against such action as a violation of the rights of conscience., The Assembly also expresses regret that the Dunedin Tramways Union not only holds its business meetings on that day, but seeks to coerce those of its members who conscientiously object to <attending the same under pains and penalties."
