ed the District Attorney Mt Chicago
to Enforce the Law.
WASHINGTON, d. c., May 20.-Mr.
John Willis Baer, OF Boston, the Sec
retary Of the United Society OF Chris
tian Endeavor, had an interview with
Attorney General Olney this morning
in regard to the points Of law and the
governments relation 10 the Worlds
Colum bian Exposition.
Attorney General Olney said to Mr..
Baer that as all appropriations made or
pertaining 10 the Worlds Columbian
Exposition were mad upon the condi-
tion that the exposition should not be
open TO the public on the first day OF
the week, commonly called Sunday. IL
would be the duty Of the Worlds COL
umbian Commission created by Congress
April 25, 1890, TO make such rules or
notifications Of the rules Of the Colum-
bian Exposition as should require the
closing Of the exposition on Sunday.
The Attorney General said further
that having been led to think by press
dispatches and other reports that the
District Attorney, al Chicago, might be
waiting for some word from him. Mr..
Olney informed the District Attorney
that he expected him 10 act In the mat
ter OF restraining the exposition man
ager from opening on Sunday by en-
forcing the law, If their attitude 81 any
time should require such action. The
District Attorney replied al once that
he had expected TO act promptly and In
accordance with Instructions, and would
advise the Attorney General Of any
move on the part OF the exposition
managers that would make such a step
necessary. Nothing has been received
from the District Attorney since that
time, nor has any further word gone
from the Attorney General to Chicago
In relation to this matter.

WASHINGTON, May 2O.-Ths third
DAYS session of the General Assembly
began with bright weather. The min
utes OF yesterdays proceedings were ap-
proved.
Rev. Charles L. Thompson, chairman
OF the Cammittee on Ministerial Keller,
reported, recommending the approval OF
The minutes of the Board for the past
year. "The Presbyterian Church, said
the report, put no premium upon old
age in the ministy-the average
amount paid TO the families OF
the aged and infrm clients OF the
board being put S2ll year. There are
now on the rolls of the board 722 per-
sons. 81 OF whom certify that they ao-
solutely need $500 a year-the maxi
mum amount allowed TO q single family
Awhile the others are content with
less. The total disbursements OF the
hoard IN the year were Sl52, 1872, all or

tions from the churches were S5,O3O
less than in the previous year, 5,5ol

ders 10 an increasing interest In the

MANAGEMENT OF Church TempOralitles, "
presented its report. The committee
recommended q change in the form OF
government looking
TO A DEA CONAL SYSTEM
OF management, rather than that OF
trustees. which is eXtra-cOnstitutional,
and oftentimes leads TO condition or
things in opposition 70 the teachings OF
the Church, and from which there is
no relief, except by appeal 70 the civil
courts. The committee further recon-
mended that in the meantime the fol-
Moving dsliVerance be made by the
General Assembly:
THE. General Assembly takes notice
that there are frequent complaints
that trustees OF Congregations assume
powers and authority especially over
SGnsic, and the use of church buildings,
IPANh are rot warrented by, but in
touiict with, the constitution OF the
Church. The Assembly enjoins upon
she Churches loyal adherance to our
form OF government, which provides
tnat the authoriety Of the session over
all matters OF worship is paramount,
and at the same time recommends that
All such questions be treated by the
session with Christian tact and courte-
sy TO the spirit Of love and foroesr-
ance."
The report was made the special or
der for next Thursday morning.
The Assembly then adjourned 10 meet

MURDER IN THE COURT ROOM.
sad and Fatal Ending of n Law suit in
Indiana A Lawyer shot Dead.

DANvrIE, IND, May 20. - Coley
Brown, President OF the Lebanon Ma
tural Gas Company, shot Samuel Wes-
ner, one OF the most prominent lawyers
in Indiana, At noon to-day. Wesner
died almost instantly.
The shooting occurred in the court
room, directly in front Of the Judges
desk.
For several days suit, Martin Ho-
bee against the Lebanon Gas Company,
for damages has been on trial, and mas
been bitterly contested on both sides.
The argument had been completed and
the court adjourned, and Wesner was
Aaughing and talking, pleased over the
the conduct Of the case.
Wesner was told that he must look
out for Brown, and he replied that he
heard that Brown had a revolver last
night. but be was not afraid. Brown
then came from the side Of the room
where he had been standing, muttering
threats against Wesner. They met,
and Brown said:
my reputation is as good as yours. ="
One word led 10 another and Wesner
said: IF you have gun, pull II.
dare YOU to-" Brown, meanwhile had
his hand behind him and II IS thought
that he transferred the revolver from
his left to his right pocket. Upon the
word, Brown drew his revolver and
S6red two shots.
Almost instantly Wesner moved to-
ward Brown and pulled long dagger.
Just as be laid hands on Brown, Brown
fell, and Wesner was taken of and laid
down. Brown was arrested and his re-
volver taken away from him. Wesner's
strength began to fail, and he died In
few moments.
Brown was taken to jail, aud IS not
disposed to talk, although he says Wes-
ner provoked the matter. Brown was
badly cut across the palm OF his left
hand by the dagger which WeSneI
ksed. The frst bail fred struck Wes-
Ter ia the left forearm and came out
near the elbow.
The second ball struck near the base
OF the breast bone and ranged down
ward, showing under the skin about
four inches from the base OF the spinal
column.
The trouble arose ever Wesner's com
mentS on Browns evidence in 10 trial.
