RUSSIAN EXPECTATION OF REAssEMBLISG OF THE
CONFERENCE.
LONDON, Dec. 2.
Berlin dispatch to the Times says Russia
contemplates the reassembling next March in
St. Petersburg of the International Law Con
ference lately held in Brussels. Exertions will
probably be made to secure the consent of Great
Britain and some minor states. The work of
the conference will be confined TO the enact
ment of tho more purely philanthropic clauses
of the programme proposed by Russia. If these
endeayors fail, the three Northern powers may
possibly settle the matter alone.

story reaches The West Chester Nel0s from

R. quariyman was excavating stones in Mr..
Christman's field, and as he neared the bot
tom OF large pile of stones he eepied
something wrapped up very carelessly in an
old cloth cover, which he secreted under ha
coat and made off with it to investigate in So
cret. 1t proved TO be a large jewelry box filed
with money. To some he said that it containa
100000 in notes. others he tells that the
amount is $3.50 in notes, gold and silver The
box was first wrapped in linen, and it had lain
there so long that the linen wrapper under the
oil-cloth was completely rotted. Who put the
box there and what was in it, are the mysteries
shrouding the case. The finder will give no pos

to ,his boarding house about Z o'clock on the
night of the fire, and had conversations with the
family, aud did not leave the house after supper
