GONE TO THE CONGO.
Two Treasury Messengers Enlist in
the BelEinn Service.

the Belgian Service.
If Secretary Carlisle had suddenly an
nounced his resignation ana Commissioner
Miller his intention of doing likewise the
internal revenue bureau could not have
contained more excitement than it did to-
day when the news spread through the corr
ridors and rooms that Eddie" Thornton
and Tommy Crowley, two of the mes
sengers in the bureau. had given up their
positions yesterday and departed for Africa
to fight the battles of Belgium in the Congo
in case such action became necessary.
Investigation discovered that MesSrs
Thornton and Crowley had quietly enlist ed
some days ago in the service of Belgium
for duty in the Congo. Both had been mes,
sengerS in the internal bureau since they
wore knckerbockers and were generally
liked. They resigned yesterday, went to
New York last night and will sail for Rot
terdam tomorrow, whence they will go to
Antwerp.
Thornton and Crowley are both about
tWenty-three or twenty-four years of age
Thornton is son of the late Isaac Thorn
ton, who was Junior officer on the Kear-
sage when that vessel sunk the Alabama
and who was for years a clerk in the treas
ury. He was a member of the National
Fencibes UP to four months ago. ''-
Crowley was an orphan from West yir-
ginia, and was appointed to his recent po-
sition during President Cleveland's first adj
ministration. 1t is the opinion of those
they leave behind that If they have a free
chance in the Congo they'll own that part
of Africa before they forty.

VENEZUELAN COMMISSION
It Has Made But Little Progress in Its
Real Work So Far.
No Replies Yet Received From Either
of the Disputing Governments
Appropriations Insufficient.

The Venezuelan boundary commission
held it's regular weekly meeting today. but
owing to the delay in the preparation of
the necessary data bearing upon the dis
puted boundary line. they have so far made
out little progress upon the real work Tor
which they were organized. So far as
known no response has yet been received
from either the British or Venezuelan gov
ernments to the invitation to be represent
ed before the commission by an agent or
attorney. 1t Is stated that the commission
is experiencing great difficulty in getting
the. maps and official records necessary to
a proper determination of the true divi-
sional line between British Guiana and
Venezuela.
Handsome New Quarters.
The quarters of the commission in the
Sun building are furnished in luxurious
style with polished oak desks, bookcases
and dressing cases, and the numerous
lounges. sofas and chairs ara richly up
holstered in leather. The secretary and
each member of the commission has sep
arate room, and each room is provided
with every comfort, including a solid silver
pitcher and salver. There is a large force
or assistants, including stenographers,
translators, clerks, typewriters and mes
sengers. and the allowances for salaries
and expenses is said to be extremely lib
eral. sumptuous luncheon was served
to the commission during the progress of
today's session. Complaint Is said to have
been already made against the alleged in
sufficiency of the appropra ton of 500 900
1t Is proposed to send one or two of the
members to Europe and Venezuela, and TO
send the secretary on special mission to
Madrid and The Hague to inspect the off,
cial archives relating to the early history
of the Spanish and Dutch settlements In
South America, but this program will prob
ably have to be abandoned unless the COM
mission is provided with more money.
Their expenses have already been very
heavy, and it is said that the salary al
lowances will soon exhaust the balance of
the available appropriation.

In the case of Dorsey E. W. Towson
against Emmons s. Smith. Judge Cole held
today that the rights of a lessee, under
recent ruling of the United States Supreme
Court, extend to improvements existing at
the time of the lease or assignment of it.
1t appeared in the case on trial that Mr.
Smith purchased the uneXpired term of a
lease from Mr.. Tewson of a building on
Market space about year ago. The build
ing contained, it was claimed certain fix
lures. Mr. Towson valued them at $500
ard sued Mr.. Smith Cor that amount. The
latter contended that the fixtures were part
of the leased building, and We're included
in it. But Judge Cole held that while the
defendant would have the right to move
the building itself elsewhere, the plaintiff
could recover unless the jury believed that
it was agreedDthatithe fixtures were spe-
c;fically included Hthe lease
A verdict in 6avorbof Mr.. Towson for the
sum Of $275 WIS today rendered.

BALTIMORE CONFERENCE.
RumOrs Of the Changes I'm Some Local
Pulpits.

As the date of the annual meeting of the
Baltimore conference approaches talk be-
comes more interesting in relation to the
changes to be made in the pastorates and
the important questions Of church polity
which will come up for discussion. 1t is
understood that Hamline has decided not
to ask for Rev. ]. b. Hamilton OF SYRIA
cuse, who was rumored as being their
choice. but that they have their eyes on a
prominent Chicago pastor. 1t is thought
that the vacancy at McKendree Will be
filled by either DIR. Naylor or DIR. Shields.
with the chances on the former. These
will be all the changes by the five-year
Limitation except the one at Gorsuch, for
which there is not so much speculation.
There is, however, very desirable pas
torate vacant, but not by reason Of limita-
ton. 1t is that Of St. Paurs at Dupont
Circle Since the church was organized
last spring its services have been con-
Quoted by Rev. DR.. Hugh Johnston and
j. II. McCarty of Metropolitan Church
but now the congregation feels that IL can
stand alone, and so they are on the look
out for a pastor. 1t is probable that the
pastor for this charge will not be made
In the way that the others are DONE by the
appointment of the bishop at conference
but that the st. Paul people will be al
lowed a free hand in the matter. 1t is
thought that they will not ask for any
body around Washington, but for some
clergyman from some other conference
who is well known and would be willing
TO work on a comparatively very small
salary until the church has reached the
prominence which II now seems likely il
will enjoy. DIR. Rice's chances OF being
reappointed at Trinity are regarded
decidedly bright, and the doctor appears
to have healed over to a considerable
tent the differences in his congregation.
which were not however. of his making.
Monday morning the questions of church
polity presented TO the last Baltimore con-
ference, in the shape Of the Bacon resoIu-
1A III God la.a Alnsh 4fuF
Ministers Association at Foundry Church.
One of the local pastors will open the dis
cussion, and is to be then followed by
other ministers informally. This is ex-
pected to bring cut a number OF inter
estiIg arguments and indicate the way
the wind is blowing.

GENERAL MARKET REPORTS
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch TO The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, February Foreign SELL
ing orders in the local market had a deter
rent influence on values during the initial
period of trading this morning. London
cables reflected concessions varying from
Il to is per cent and emphasized the re-
cent unwilingness on the part of operators
at that center to assist in further improve
ment.
Speculation was consequently held in
check during the first hour by fears of a
sympathetic realizing movement. The alb
sence of any pressure to sell subsequently
inspired confidence in the stability of the
market and created a good demand for the
more meritorious issues
The well-founded belief in the probable
allotment of at least 80 per cent of the
new loan to representatives of foreign bid
ders materially aided the upward move
ment. The prospect of thus regaining
goodly portion of the gold lost during the
protracted eff1uX period counteracted the
apprehension resulting from the POSSIBLE
tiles of Withdrawals from the subtreas-
uries to meet bond payments.
Money rates are again sufficiently near
the normal level to warrant a broader mar
ket, and indications point to increasing
activity during the coming season. Com
mis- sion houses report revival OF interest
among out-of-town clients, but are advis-
standpoint. Notwithstanding the reported
disappointnents which have followed pre-
dictions of pending reaction, the idea of
a one or two per ceht decline in the near
future has not been abandoned.
The course of prices today, however, con-
tributed nothing whatever in support of
these reactionary theories.
The Granger stocks, Burlington in par
ticular. were again in good demand at uni
form gains beyond the limits of fractions.
The earnings Of this entire group are likely
on. and combine both investment and specu-
lative possibilities. Among the specialties
in which pools are operative to a greater or
less extent Sugar Tennessee Coal and Iron
and DiStillerS were the pronounced features
of the day. In the former the buying was
of character easily identified as being
inspired by the strong inside interests.
The advance from 10 IL to rs IA was
easily accomplished under liberal pur-
chases. The short Cuban crop and the Ger
man export bounty are completely djsre-
the American company is subject to no risk
in securing its full proportion of raw sag
and that its facilities for meeting COM
petition are unequaled
better demand for all kinds of manu-
featured iron and rumors OF favorable
legislation explain the motives for the i'm
Erovement in the two properties last
Eamed.
The trading Of the last hour was I'M
changed in it's general characteristics al
though traders were disposed to take
profits in several Instances. All things con-
s:dered, the good features of the situation
apparently outweigh those of an opposite
nature. and should be still further reflected
in values.

DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

There was an important hearing at
the District bufldihg today upon the sub
1ect of the extension Of TIE Belt Line and
lexington and Soldiers Home railroads,
the amalgamation of the two and the ex-
tension of the time to begin work upon the
Maryland and, Washington railroad. The
hearing took place in Maj. Powelrs private
office. and the press was excluded The in
terests of-.the raflfpad were represented by
by Messrs. DIM Newbold, W. Kesley
schoepf and Fradk Talbert. A large map of
the section thSBh which the railroads
pass was exhtMted. and the new routes
carefully laid -e4t. The railroad people de-
sired a cross-taWns extension OF their road,
and had selected n street as the one best
suited to the situation, They We're in
formed. however, sby the Commissioners
that such route WAS cut of the question.
Cor the Commissioners did not think it
wise to have railroad tracks around
Thomas Circle. 1t was then suggested by
the railroad men that both M and N streets
be used, single track occupying each
street. 70 this the Commissioners also OBJ
jected. They had looked over the situation
carefully only short time ago. Every
street had been examined from New York
Avenue to U street, and the advantages
and disadvantages Of each carefully
weighed After mature elaboration, they
were convinced that the best street on the
whole. and the one which presented the
fewest dangers, was L street as far as
Connecticut avenue, and then along M
street.
A general discussion of the plan followed.
during which President Newbold explained
that the object of the company was to have
its route SO arranged that person buying
ticket in Baltimore could go to any part
of Washington without change of cars.
sions were granted. as soon as the Wash
ington and Maryland road was completed.
