CHICAGO, Aug. 1l.-Washington Hesing
has offered 81, 500 600 to the Worlds fair
directors for the entire batch of 5000, 900
souvenir half dollars donated by congress-,

a. 600, 900 for the lot without the Sunday
closing proviso. There were hundreds OF
other offers as well.
Worth "A Dollar Apiece.
There is no doubt that the fair can make
a handsome profit on the souvenir coins if
the directors decide to place them on sale
at a premium. Vice President Higin-
botham thinks they will be worth 81
apiece, and the general opinion among
Worlds fair officials is that they will be
seized so greedily by souvenir lovers that
not one of them will ever find its way into
circulation.

NEW York, Oct. 4.-Ths National League
baseball magnates held a secret meeting
here today and this evening. 1t Is under
stood that the conference was for the pur-
pose Of debating ways and means of max
ing good SO, 900 shortage in notes gwen
for the purchase of association clubs. The
amount to be paid them was something
like $4,000, and it car readily be imag-
ined what strain it has been upon the
clubs to make its notes good. 1t was
found that seven of the twelve clubs had
made more money last season, but were
worse off financially on account Of the
drainage occasioned by the sinking fund.
At late hour tonight the result of the
meeting was announced as followe: The
secretary was authorized to take steps to
secure renewal of notes given by the or
ganization. The contract season of 1893
shall be from April to September 30. The
championship games shall not exceed 1872
during the season, the time, place and de-
tails of holding them to be decided by the
president of the National League and
directors. The annual meeting of the Or
ganization shall be held at Chicago, No
vember l6. Resolutions were adopted ex-
pressing the sense Of the meeting that no
change in the membership of the league is
advisable, and none will be made unless
by voluntary withdrawal of some Of the
clubs. It is asserted that the Bostons and
Clevelands will play off the worlds series,
beginning probably October II or Is. The
games will be played in chose cities ex-
clusively.

BALTIMORE, Oct. Especial. The

the other eminent leaders in the American
Revolution will hold triennial council in
this city, beginning tomorrow. Numeric-
ally the Protestant Episcopal church is

Baptist bodies, but it is. in proportion, by
far the wealthiest Of all the religious
organizations Of the United states. and is

erty amounting TO $646, lbs, 704. In round
numbers the Episcopal church has half a
million communicates and property
amounting to $4,000. 900, or $146 per
capita. Before the Revolution the clergy
received orders in England; after the
Revolution certain American clergymen
we're consecrated bishops by the English
church. The Church of England and the
Protestant Episcopal church are alike as
constituting branches of the Anglican
communion. and the eloquence of Phillips
Brooks is as much at home in Westmin-
ster abbey as in Trinity church, Boston.
The triennial council will be known as
the general convention of 1892. It will
consist, IS its predecessors consisted, of
two houses, the house Of bishops and the
house of deputies. The concurrence of
