divided equally among the bishops in
charge of the different dioeeses. one bish-
ops division to be given, TO, the colored
committee, to be used In educating wo-
men for work among the cotored people.
Miss Emery, the general secretary of
the auxiliary, made some explanatory re-
marks relative to the enrolment fund,
at the request of several diocesan off,
GERS. She told how, in 1879 DR.. Fuller pro-
posed that fund of $1,000, 600 be raised by
the members of the auxiliary, to be pre-
sented to the Board of Missions at its
convention in Chicago in 1856.
Each of the 10000 members We're to
contribute S. and the fund was to be
presented as a whole. In 1886, the time
appointed to make the presentation, the
fund did not exceed $4,000. One condi-
ton of the disposition of the fund is that
it cannot be used until completed. The
contribution has increased since the orig
inal offering to 100000. The interest
drawn by this money, rs added to the
fund. Miss Emery made an appeal to
those members who had not subscribed,
to do so, that the s1000.0O0 might sooner
be complete, in order that 1t may be used
to further missionary work.

THE QUEEN INQUEST.
Morgan Brown Held for the Murder
of His Friend.

An inquest over the remains of Eugene
Queen, who was murdered in a barroom
on the corner of Thirteenth and E Streets
southeast yesterday afternoon, was held
at the sixth precinct police station this
morning at II o'clock. Coroner Carr con-
Quoted the jury to the dead house where
the body was viewed and the witnesses
sworn. The first witness called was Dep
uty Coroner GlaZebrook who gave a de-
tailed description of the nature of the
wounds and the direct cause of the mans
death.
A number of persons were then called
to the stand who were in the place at
the time of the occurrence.
From their testimony it appeared that
there was no quarrel between the men,
and they had always seemed to be the
best of friends. 1t was shown that Brown
had no intention of hurting Queen.
After hearing all the testimony the jury
decided that Queen met his death at the
hands of Morgan Brown, and that Brown
be held for the action of the grand jury.
In addition to it's verdict the jury rec
commended that the previous good charac-
ter of the man be taken into considera-
tion in deciding what penalty should be
imposed for his crime.

PAY FOR THEIR SERVICES.
Important Question Before the Al
ger Relief Commission.

The Alger Relief Commission held an
executive session this morning and con-
sequently did not examine any witnesses.
1t is learned that the important subject
discussed by the Commission while sit
ting behind closed doors was the question
of compensation the Commission thought
that il ought to receive for its valuable
services to the country and incidentally
TO the War Department and the Presi-
dent
II seems that the matter of fixing the
pay of the Commission was diplomati-
cally left by the President to the Com
mission itself.
Several days ago the Commission vot-
ed each commissioner SO day for per-
sonal expenses. but this was not TO in
clude railroad fare and other expenses
incident TO travelling.
The Commission has been wrestling
with the matter of its pay for number
of days. All hands apparently agree up
on one point, that is, that the salary
should be made as large as possible,
without exciting too much criticism from
the press of the country. Each COM
missioner gave his views on this point
but no TWO had the same ideas regard
ing the forbearance OF the public.
one suggestion, which is credited to the
chairman, Gen. q. NJ. Dodge, was that
il would be better to let the matter rest
until after election, when it would be pos
sible TO fix a rate that would be salts
factory to all concerned. One objection
raised to this was that if the election
should happen to go against the Admin
istration IN November the President might
step in and cut down the pay of the Com
mission 10 bed rock. However, it is be-
lieyed that the matter of fixing the pay of
the Commission will be left open until
after election. Meantime any Commits
siOner can presumably draw something on
account if he should be in need of funds.
The Commission expects TO go to Camp
Meade, Pa, on Saturday. The examina-
tion Of witnesses was resumed when the
Commission met at o'clock this after
noon.

TRIAL OF SAMUEL BAIT.
Charged With Causing the Death of
John j. Eagle.

Samuel Bait was put on trial this
morning charged with the killing of John
]. Eagle in Fourteenth Street near d on
July L, 1885. According to the account
of the affair given at the time by eye
Witnesses, Eagle was standing in the
roadway near the curbing, when Bait
rode by on a bicycle. knocking him down.
1t is alleged that Bait returned and beat
Eagle with his fists, knocking him down.
Eagle went home in a daZed condition
and on the next day died. A post-mortem
examination proved that his skull was
fractured
The defense will claim that Eagles skull
was fractured before he was struck by
Bait. 1t was also developed by the wit
nesses for the Government that there was
a three-cornered fight after Bait returned
TO where Eagle was standing.

SUGAR DECLINES A POINT.
1t Affects n Market That Opens In
Depression.

New York, Oct 1.-THE same profess
sionaI control in which the stock market
was held yesterday was exerted at the
opening today There was little change
in the influences used to depress senu-
ment, which were: election uncertainty,
yellow fever, quarantine Interruptions;
dearer money abroad. and lack of support
from the inside of the interests.
Sugar was sold down over a point and
this movement hurt the general market.
Tobacco was about steady. After irr5gu-
lar openings the railway list declined
fractionally. In the second half hour
there were numerous rallies.
Government bonds were unchanged.
At noon the stock market was unset
tied and attractive. Sugar made fur
ther fractional decline and Tobacco went
up two points. The majority in the list
continued weak.
