tCOPTEIGHT,
1SSS, BT SEW YORK ASSOCIATED
PRESS.
.'BEKLnr, June 1. After the seventh
"plena sitting of the Samoan Conference,
oheld on Wednesday last, the American
''Commission was in a position to cable to
. Secretary Blaine the definitive acceptance
by the German and English Governments
of the "Washington proposals, limiting the
' . German indemnity and Samoan rights to
levy import duties, and some of Mr.
' Maine's amendments to the clauses relating
to the internal Samoan policy.
s The "Washington Government's aiming at
the utmost possible independence of the
Samoans has not the sympathy of the Ger
man official mind, which better compre
hends measures to protect European inter
ests and to extend European influences; but
after a slight hostility the German commis
sioners have invariably yielded whatever
concessions America asked in the direction
of Samoan autonomy.
A BOLD STXSD.
On the other hand, the Americans have
conceded practically nothing, adhering to
their original claims. Some show of con
ciliation was made toward the close of the
conference by the Americans leaving the
appointment of the first resident Jndge of
the European community to England. In
official circles here it is surmised that as
Chief Justice Coleridge will have the power
to appoint the Judge, the known personal
relations of the Chief Justice with America
had something to do with the American
Commissioners' concession.
The general results of the conference do
not afford the Foreign Office and the official
press a theme for congratulations. On the
contrary, there is a visible irritation over
the delay in conclusion of the treaty nego
tiations. Semi-official papers ask why the
f references being practically concluded, the
"Washington Government postpones the
giving of orders to sign the treaty. The
truth is that no especial honor will accrue
to the German Government from the result
of the conference, so it does not wish the
matter to be kept before the public.
THE END 1TTD.
The feeling in official circles undoubtedly
is that, Germany having yielded everything
demanded by the Americans, the Govern
ment at "Washington ought to assent to a
prompt conclusion of the matter. Some
slight suspicion even exists, though entirely
outside of the conference, that the American
delegates have attributed delays to their
Government, which in some instances were
due to themselves.
They are having a good time here, and
have not especially striven to accelerate
the settlement of the questions at issue.
Obviously, a snggestion like this arises
from a desire to bury the issues of the con
ference out of si eh t of the public as soon as
possible. Secretary Blaine's instructions to
sign the treaty are expected in the course of
next week.
Since a completed draft of the treaty has
been cabled to "Washington no advices have
reached the Commissioners indicating the
likelihood of a lurther reference to the con
ference. THE BIG SIBIEE.
The Cologne Gazette affirms that recent
Crown councils decided that the severest
measures should be taken in tne event ot
the strikers pleading. The temporary re
slnption of work by the miners since the
aest of the workmen's delegates from
chum has been attributed to the Govern
N -Int's action. The delegates will nergeti--caffly
carry on the agitation through every
district in Germany.
It is expected that the general elections
will be held in the autumn.
It is said that during the recent consistory
here the Pope fainted, falling back in his
chair to the consternation of all present
Dr. Ceciarelli, the Pope's chief physician,
is reported as saying he may die at any
moment.
Premier Crispi is credited with a design
to occupy the Vatican in the event of the
conclave meeting of Cardinals abroad. The
Emperor appears to attach small import
ance to the reception of the Shah of Persia,
who is due here on June 9.
Herr Fuselang, editor of the "Westphalia
Tolls Zeitung, has been arrested. Papers
found in his bouse reveal the fact that he
prompted the proclamations of the Strike
Committee.
Several of Captain "Wissmann's officers in
East Africa are down with smallpox. Those

ISrECUX. TELEGBAJt TO THE DISPATCH.l
Bomeeset, PA., June L The TJmberger
murder trial was resumed this morning.
The widow TJmberger was placed upon the
stand for cross examination. Her testimony
could not be shaken bj the counsel for de
fendants. Little 10-year-old Nannie Hor
ner, who also witnessed the tragedy, also
positively identifies the accused as the
.guilty parties. She points them out in
court and relates her story of that fearful
nipfct in a plain, simple, childlike manner.
The attorneys for the defense attempted
to rattle her, but notwithstanding her ex
treme youth, she persisted in her story, and
her testimony could not be shaken. This
ended the testimony of all the parties who
' saw the deed committed. Dr. walker tes
tified to finding two bullet holes in the
murdered man's body. Alter bearing 18
witnesses for the prosecution the court ad
journed until Monday morning. There are
'nearly 200 witnesses to be heard. Interest
remains unabated and the testimony so far
adduced is very damaging to the prisoners.
PISHIXG CLUBS' MEETING.

THE DISTKIOT ATTOEKBI FIGHT.
Mr. Bird Tells What the Union Ia-o Party
Will Do, If Given a Chance.
Several announcements have been made
recently ot a meeting to be held at the office
of"W. Bird, Esq., No. 68 Grant street,
by Independent Bepublicans and a number
of members of the bar to place in the field
an independent candidate on the Bjpubli
can ticket.
A Dispatch representative visited Mr.
Bird last evening at his residence in Beltz
hoover borough to ascertain what he knew
of the movement, and, in reply to a ques
tion as to the time when the prospective
candidate would be made known, Mr. Bird
said:
"I know absolutely nothing about the
affair. I am neither a Republican nor a
Democrat, but the chairman of the Union
Labor party, and if any notice for such a
meeting at my office has been issued, it has
been without my knowledge or consent.
"So far as my personal opinion is con
cerned, I would like to see Mr. L. K. Por
ter or Major Stewart nominated Inde
pendently by the Bepublicans, and I have
not the least doubt that either or the gen
tlemen could be elected. The latter would
be my choice personally, but I think Mr.
Porter would make the htrongest run. The
Union Labor party would indorse either of
them, and, if an Independent Republican
candidate were not put in the field, we
would indorseany good Democrat."
ABOUT LAUGHTER.
A Writer Claims That a Great Deal of
Character Lie In a Laugh.
Texas Sifting.!
Laughter is the great safety-valve o f the
human engine. It is queer how many dif
ferent ways people laugh. The drunken
man, for instance, laughs with his wyes.
(Omit flowers, please.) A great deal of
character lies in a laugh. Only last week a
man with whom we have long been familiar
quite startled us by breaking into a loud
guffaw, which came manifestly from the
heart, and yet which we have never heard
before. His stylographic pen had worked
for the first time in eight months. Thus it
is seen that perhaps in many a heart a sweet
angel slumbers unseen until some happy
moment awakens it.
Our national characteristic is smiling.
"When two Americans meet the first thing
they do is to "smile." There are occasions,
however, when it is not sale to smile when
your wife has hit her finger with a tack
hammer, for instance.
Ella Wheeler "Wilcox sings "Laugh and 1
the world laughs with you." Yes, very
true; and slip up on a banana peel, and the
world, or at least all within 20 yards of you,
will laugh at you.
The President' Summer Home
"Washington Post.! .
Ex-Senator Davis' cottage at Deer Park,
which will be occupied by the family of
President Harrison during the summer
months, is described as an unpretentious
little frame house, painted sage green, with
a red shingled-roof. It is two stories and a
half in height, has a frontage of 42 feet, and
is entered irom a broad piazza, upon which
open three long French windows. Tie par
lor occupies the .entire width of the dwell
ing, in which huge fireplaces are built in
the middle section of the wall, which par
tially divides the room. There is neither
hallway nor reception room. An
apartment in the wing will be
used by the President as a library or snug
retreat for his private use, and beyond is a
small dining room finished in red. On the
second floor are four sleeping rooms,
reached by a narrow and steep stairway.
Above are the servants' quarters. The
kitchen is supplied with a large hot-water
boiler for beating the bath. Every room is
freshly covered with matting, and supplied
with bamboo furniture.
