Rev. Job A. Price, of Washington, from the com- mittee on “supplementing insufficient salaries,” Suid that the committee was ready to report, ‘The report was read by Rev. J. P. Wright, and recom- mended the following plan? First, that one-half of the dividend of the Preachérs’ Aid society, oF as much as is needed, be jevoted to this purpose. Second, that we take ‘@ collection annually in each church in the month of May, to which we shall ourseives contribute not less'than one per cent of our salaries, to be known as the sustenta- Yon fund collection, and that the money thus col- lected, together with the amount received from the dividend of the Preachers’ Ald society, before referred to, shall take the place of the church re- ef collection and the two per cent assessment on salaries. 3d. ‘That an estimate of the amount needed be made annually by the conference steward on the basis of the salaries recetved,including the amount | paid by the sustentation fund, and apportioned to ‘the churches and imembers of the conlerence, Who shall be responsible for raising said amounts 4th. ‘That Its agreed that the conference collec- Uon shall be devoted to other claimants than the effective men, and that those receiving ald from the sgistentation fund renounce their ciaim on the nce collec Sth. That we pledge ourselves to im the amounts apportioned, aiming to secure by the ald of this fund a salary of $700, exclusive of house rent, for married men, and of $400, nclu- sive of board, for unmarried men.” “Gth.

That the conference affectionately ad- monish the people on this subject and advise then toadopt some such system of finance as is en- jolued in our book of discipline, whieh, being. fol- lowed by some of our charges, enables them to af. ford thelr pastors a sufficient support, and that furthermore the board of presiding “elders be directed to present this subject to the quarterly conference and to report dereilet charges to the annual conference.

That in the near future an effort be made by a general canvass through the conference to Increase and, if possible, to double the capital of the Preachers’ Aid sociéty, thereby enabling It to grunt annually a sum suficient toratse the smaller Salaries to @ certain specified minimum of 3700 oF $00 or $900, as mught be posstbie.” ‘The Orst recommendation was adopted without dissent, DUL a lively discussion followed on the secon A SUBSTITCTE PROPOSED. 1oRtt A; M- Courcenay offered as a substitute the following: “eso. ved, that the board of stewards constitute a sustentation fund from the Preachers’ Ald $o- ty dividend, the church relief collection and a contribution Irom the ininisters of two per cent on. ‘Uielr salaries.” this Was met With a storm of objections by the members, who were opposed to changing the sun from one to two per cent. ‘The discussion lasted for several hours and finally required an extension of the session. ‘The second recommendation was adopted, and on mo- ton of Mr. Courtenay was made unanimous. ‘The Test of the committee's report was adopted after some discussion on the ifth recommendation, At 1 o'clock the conference adjourned until 9:30 O'clock to-morrow morning. THE GREAT RAILROAD DEAL. Little Doubt that Garrett Has Sold Out the B. and 0.—The Men Whe Are In the Parchasing Syndicate—Baltimeore Greatly Excited Over the Matter. New Yous, March 9.—Mr. Alfred Sully was ap- plied to by a reporter of the Evening Post to-day for some statement in regard to the circumstan- tal reports that asyndicate represented by him has virtually concluded negotiations with Presi- dent Robert Garrett, of the Baltimore and Oblo, for the purchase Of a controlling interest in that Toad and ts dependencies. Mr. Sully said that he preferred to say nothi: until he could state something definite, and that he Was not Yet_In.a position todoso. When the reporter remarked that he supposed the fact of Ube purchase was not now denied Mr. Sully ad- mitted that this “was pretty well understood,” | but said be was not prepared to announce the names of the parties concerned or the terms of the agreement. RUMORS REGARDING THE PRICE PAID, It was reported in the street to-day that the Price pald by the syndicate for the Baltimore and Dhio stock Was 225, but a very well informed and rominent banker said that he had good reason to eve it Was not much over 200, A leading bank president, in commenting on the unportance of the reportéd sale, sald that the railroad represented in the purcliasing combina- tion oF in harmony with them would have control of all the anthracite coal territory in the country. WHAT THE SYNDICATE REPRESENTS, Gen. Sam'l F. Thomas and Mr. Calvin 8. Brice, of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia interest, are members of thé purchasing syndicate. ‘They were at their offices this morning, but deeiined to See any representatives of the press, Mr. Alfred Sully 1s understood to represent the interests of Mr. Austin Corbin. ‘The Reading, the Pennsylvania, the Jersey Central and the New York Central are all understood to be parties tothe great “deal.” A prominent broker remarked that the new combination would represent the New York Central, the Erle, the Pennsylvania Central and the Reading and Jersey roads, and that these Would command ali the business coming into In connection with the Richmond Terminal and the East Tennessee, Virgiuia and Georgta roads, the new system would have control of nearly ali the sea coast lines from New York to | Florida.

It is supposed that capital interested in the Aduis’ Express company are among the backers of the Sully party, with a view of acquit con. trol of the Baltimore and Ohio express as they have acquired that of the . ABO the Baltimore aud Ohio telegraph line, ayndi- cate will be in a position to make terms with the Western Union company if they find this to their interest. MR, GARRETT SAYS NOTHING. Bauriwong, March 8.—Mr. Garrett bas been seen Since 1 o'clock to-day, and the statement in the New York Times was read by him. persisted he has nothing to say about the rumored deal, It is stated, however, by one to whom Mr. Garrett ‘talked that he used the Kg inne “We are in New York.” The excitement Increases here because of the refusal of Mr. Garrett to make any communication fn re- gard to the matter. The most careful inquiry can- not discover that the city authorities have been consulted, though the city owns more than one- ith of the entire stock of the Baltimore and Ohio railroads. The city with the Johns Hopkins uni- versity and the Garrett family score a majority the stock. "In telegraphic circles there appears. much ignorance of what has been on elsewhere.
