Forecast ef a Financial Plan. When the question of adopting a plan to raise the balance of the money needed to obtain the $250,000 offered by John O. Rockefeller is taken up Saturday by the Northern Baptist mission societies, now assembled in convention In this city.

The money thus collected is to be paid Into a general treasury, and divided pro rata between the societies in proportion to the size of the debt of each.

Thia plan, if adopted, ill result in a reduction in the number of collectors to such an extent that at least in salaries and expenses will be saved during the year.
