THE AMERICAN CONFK11KXCE.
Scope and Object of the Cehrttm of
American Nations.
At various intervals for mere than half n
century, a congress of American nations
has been n thing from which the statesninp
of tlie Western Hemisphere have had great
ex isolations. As long age as 1823 It was
proposed that a conference of the nations
en this side of tlie glebe should be held at
Panama. lCven thus early in the history
of America there were these who thought
that such a congress might de a great ileal
toward promoting the prosperity or the na
tions of America by bringing them into
closer relations with ene another. Tlie
proposed congress of IttSi fell through,
owing te the refusal of the United States
te Iks n party te It, en the ground that It
savored tee strongly of theso Kurec-m
congresses, w lien thd greater nations met
te speliate the smaller ones.
Tue project has been, revived from llme
te time, and was an especially prominent
subject of delwitc in the United States when
Peru and Chill were lighting, during the
(larlield administration. The scheme foil
through at that time, however, hut has
never wholly lapsed out of sight since,
although nothing dclinite occurred until
May 21, ISSN, when J7A.O00 was appropri
ated for the ex cnses nfthe congress te be
held next autumn. In pursuance of the
previsions of that act Secretary Bayard en
the lath of July, 18H8. addressed a circular
letter te the United States ministers te the
nations of Central and Seuth America, ro re
'piesttng them te invite the countries te
which they were accredited te participate
111 the proesed congress. Secretary" Bay
ard's letter (which is published now'fer the
first time) begins by calling attention te
thopassage of tlie act referred te and the
measures which are te he considered by tlie
Congress. It then proceeds as follews:
" I have te call your particular attention
te tlie hcoie and object of the conference
suggested, which, as will be observed. Is
consultative and recommendatory only.
The proposed conference will be wholly
without power te bind any of the liartlc's
uiereie, aim u is net designed 10 mice l or
impair in any dogree the trcity relations
new existing between any of the states
which may be represented. The topics for
discussion and deliberation are manifestly
of profound lniHiitance, and it is belieeil
that a Iriciidly and frank exchangoef view s
In relation te theso subjects will be or
practical use, and. by mutual enlighten
ment, will materially jirometo that expan
sion and intimacy of social and commercial
rotations which must be fruitful of bless
ings te all concerned.
" Certain enterprises nre suggested as
proper subjects for a comparison of views,
but tlie Meld is expressly loll open te any
particliKtut state te bring bcrore the con
ference such ether subjects as may appear
ImiKirtant te the welfare of the several
states represented.
"By direction, therefore, of the piesldent
of the United States and in his name, you
will tender te Iho government of the several
Central American states, Haytl and San
Dominge, a cordial Invitation 'te be repio repie
scnted by such number of delegates as
may seem te it convenient, at the Interna
tional conference te le com onel as afore
said, in the cilv of Waslynglen, en
Wednesday, the 2d day of Octelicr, of the
coming year, ISW.i, it lielng uudcistoed,
however, that iu the ilisMsilieu of ques
tions te ceme liefore such conference no
slate shall be entitled te mere than ene
vote, whatever be the number of delegates
It may send.
"Yeu will make this Invitation known by
transmitting a copy of tills nole te the min
ister of foreign ullalrs of each of the cuun cuun cuun
tiieatowhichyeuiircaccredited. Yeu will
also, in such manner as may seem most
suitable, and with the use of such sug
gestions and expression of view s as iu your
judgment are appropriate, make knew n
the sincere deslre and confident expecta
tion of the president that this invitation
will be recoiled in the saine spirit of
friendship and deference by which it has
been piemptcd. J am, sir, your obedient
servant, T. F. Bavaiip."
The state department has thus far ro re
cehed responses from the following coun ceun
tiics, accepting the invitation contained iu
Secretary JJayard's letter: Chill, Brazil,

Delegates fiem fifteen of the principal
Meck coal mines of Indiana, and repre
senting ever 2,oe0 mines, held an all-day
convention in Brazil en Saturday, result
ing in tlie feimal rejection of the operators'
demand for 20 cents icductieii and iu de
claring a strike by a two-thirds vote. Werk
has almost wholly suspended at llni7.il

mines te-day, and a stiikethat premises

the fall, w ill be en. The reduction Is from
!H) te 70 cents, the largest demand iu the
history of tlie Western coal trade. The dis
turbance of the market caused by natural
gas and fuel oil, together with cut-threat
competition from Illinois, Ohie and Penn
sylvania operators, is the teasen alleged te
justify the reduction in wages.

te say, however, the Prohibitionists are

Nearly all the machinery will be wieiight

THliSILK llUltr.AU.
All Intet-cstliiK Part of the Am-Ictilt il
eal Department.
In ene corner of the building iu the agri
cultural department grounds, In Washing
ton, knevrnjis the museum, U located the
silk bureau, and an Interesting and im
portant place It Is. Fer nineteen years. Imj-
gluuing at the time Prof. Itiley took held,
expciiuicut.i mere or less oxtenslve, Intri
cate and Ruecessfnl have lieen made, with a
view te dctermine whether or net silk
cult nre can profitably engage attention in
this country.
At present, under the direction of Mr.
Philip Walker, the rcMiMs of the experi
ments seem te demonstrate that silk can be
niade at a profit iu this country, under
certain conditions w lthin the power of the
people te obtain. These conditions, Mr.
Walker .says, are an automatic inachliie te
feed cocoons te the winder, and a duty of
2. cr cent, en raw material. The duties en
the manufactured article, he says, udvv
average alsmt 00 er cent.
The automatic machine spoken of Mr.
Walker thinks he has secured alter much
labor. The model has worked satisfactorily,
and a number of machines are new being
constructed iu tlie department, te dcter dcter
mieo whether or net tlie invention is en
tirely practicable. If It works, two-thirds
of tlie labor new necessary te reel the silk
Treiii the cocoon can be saved.
At the department there are a large num
ber of silk worms being fed, and experience
has apparently demonstrated the valuoef
osage erange leaves as feed. Old authori
ties agreed that they were an old te the
mulberry leaves, but that the latter were
Indispensable iu tlie production of geed
cocoons. But se far as he has been able te
observe, Mr. Walker says that cocoons
from worms fed en os.ige erange exclu
sively produce as geed silk as theso from
worms festered en mulberry erniixed diet.
A knowledge of this fact Is valuable, as it
will tend te increase the culture of the silk
worm. This is attracting attention iu all
iiarls of the country. The department has
purchased cocoons from evcry state and
territory in the union but five, and one of
theso Is Alaska. The raising of eggs can
net be niade profitable by the av erage ior ier ior
sen j that must be loll te specialists.
There Is, however, money iu hatching
the egg, developing tlie worm and selling
cocoons. Purchases of cocoons are made
for the department iu pursiiancoef n gene
ral scheme formulated by the elllcer.s of
the bureau. This year the arrangement Is
as follews: Lotsel coeoonswlll be received
dining July from ToxaM,Leiiislaua, Missis
sippi, Alabama, Georgia, Flerida and
Seuth Carolina; during August fiem Ar
kansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Caro
lina and Virginia ; dining September fiem
Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, Iowa, Illi
nois, Ohie, Indiana, West Virginia and
Pennsylvania; dining October rrem
all the states of the northern tier.
Tliis distinction Is inr-de en account of
the dlllerence iu the seasons lu the
several parts of the country and
the fact that cocoons produced iu the
oxtremo North would hardly be dry
before October, vvhlle theso of the extreme
Seuth, being raised much earlier.are sooner
ready for the market. The price paid for
tlie best cocoons is 81.15 u pound. In the
present state of the Industry iu this coun
try but few misers preduce cocoons of such
ipiality as will command the maximum
price. The average price paid Is about 7!i
cents. This year, in jiddltien te dry cocoons
purchased under the tdxive scheme, rresh
cocoons will be iKiught prier te July 1st at
the department In Washington, and by Dr.
L.A. Buck. stale silk commissioner, at Pen
body, Marlen county, Kansas. The high
est vpn'ce for fresh cocoons will be forty
cents a ismnd.
Mr. Walker will leave for Kurope lu n
few weeks te iudy the methods of silk
culture and manufacture lu the ceuntilcs
there.
INDIANA 1IF.MOCKAT.S AV1N.
A Supreme Court Decision Gives Tliem
the htnte Patronage.
The most important opinion yctdelivcied
by the Indiana supreme court lu the con
troversy between the govorner and the
Democratic, elllcials elected by the general
assembly, was handed dew n en Saturday
iu thoease of J. W. Itiley against the ex
ecutive, the suit being entered te ferce the
latter te issue a commission. The court
holds that the etllccr-clect is entitled te bis
commission under the election by tlie
goneral assembly and grants his prayer for
a writ el mandamus against the governor.
In the course of his opinion (,'hiuf .Justice
Elliett says that the principle has beceme
well established that the legislature is
authorized te provide for the management
and control of .stale piepcrty, that this
authority can le exercised by no oneclso
unless it lie delegated by the Legislature,
and that it lsclearthat the selection of Ihose
w he shall have control of the institutions
can be legally niade by that ledy only.
The division ceveisall of the old institu
tions and the three recently opened and
gives te the Democrats all the Kitrouage
that is worth contending for. Seuie miner
elllces are still in controversy, but they
are Insignificant in the matter of sitronage
when cemared with the te covered by tlie
division. The governor will doubtless
issue commissions te all the Democratic
olllcers te-day.

Why Mentana la Democratic.
Frem the 1'hllndclphla Times.
Mentana territory gave a Iteptiblicau
majority or !,120 in a ih1I or 40,011 In
November last en a square party issue Ter

In pursuance or the enabling act or Con
gress, the ieople or Mentana lately elected
a convention te frame a constitution, and

Why has Mentana been thus eccentric iu

That the doctors themselves were In

remlei'H friends, took a great Interest lu the
ease, and spent considerable time vv niching
beside the body lu the undertaker's estab
lishment. While present there she claims
that ene of the men lu the shop, who wit
nessed Iho autopsy, told her that when Dr.
Fergusen put his knife te Bishop's breast
te begin the M)st mortem he told Dr. Irwin
and llr. llimce te watch the body closely te
see if there was any life lu the eyes or IT

Miss Jenes will probably be called as a
