WASHINGTON, March o0.-There is
said to be an unprecedented crush OF
applicants for the various consulships,
especially those which are reported to
be desira BILE from a financial point of

Rev. DR. TALMAGE says that since the
old Brooklyn tabernacle was burned,
three years and four months ago, he
has received only 1928 salary from his
church. That is about SIS a month,
certainly moderate salary for noted
preacher. The fact undoubtedly is that
in erecting its big new building in a
fashionable neighborhood the Taber-
nacle society undertook too much DIR.
Talmage, by relinquishing his salary,
seems to have done his part toward car
rying the heavy burden assumed; but
now it is intimated that he may give
up the fight and resign. Such a step
on his part would, in all probability,
make an end of the Tabernacle as a
church building.
