THE BUCKS HAVE 4 CONFERENCE AT AL
BANY.
NEW ORR, July "A dispatch from Al
bany says: Immediately after the adjourn
lnent OF the Legislature to-tlay there was a
private meeting Of leading Bucks in Speaker
Sharpe's room, adjoining the Assembly
Chamber. Those present appeared to be in
high Elec over something which pleased
them greatly. Among those present was
ex-Lteut.-(;oy. Woodford, who was very
active both before and during the session Of
the Joint Convention. 1t is said lie brought
to the Capitol the wishes Of ex-senator
Conkling. There are remaining III the city
very few members, and
THERE IS NO C41SvAsSISG.
The Administration supporters are bound
BY their caucus to continue voting for their
nominees, ana, rs the caucus adjourned sine
die, and 1lo authority was given to any one
to call it together again, it ean oniy rcas-
selnblc through general call, which, as was
intilnatcd b. Senator Woodin III his speech
to-day, cannot be depended upon. Many
think there is now hopeless deadlo"k.
They cln see lit way out Of the dllema,
which was demonstrated IN the voting to-
day, anil Il strong pressure will be brought
to bear early next week for I'LL adjournment.

that some of the labors.ot the Conference.
such as its ascertainment Of the views Of the
States and its colIectinu- of materials, have
been Of the utmost Importance. 1t Is consit-
cred that the willingness expressed by the
Bank uf England to :ilull 0ne-ffth of its
metallic reserve i'll silver provided the other
nations open tllcir rnints to the free coinage
of that metal is Iat~ tacit admission
that 4 great binetallic union would
restore silver to it's former place and
value rs international n1oney, and the rea-
sons stated in the resolution OF adjournment
have high and very important significance.
The Conference Is regarded here rs having
attained as great measure of success as its
best friends could hare hoped for at present.
\ DECLARATION.
To the 1Ftsfe71 Associated Prtsz.
LONDON, July "a Paris correspondent
says: At yesterday'ssittin Of the Monetary
Conference, Mr.. Eyarts, delegate from the
United States, read tho following declaration
of tile French and American delegates in the
name uf their respective Governments: 1.-THE
depreciation and great fluctuations III the
value of silver relatively to gold, which Ut
late years have shown themselves and which
continue to exist, have been and are injurious
to commerce and general prosperity, and tho
establishment and maintenance OF Il fixed
relative value between silver and gold would
produce most important benefits to the COM
luerce OF the world.
"A convention entered into by all Important
group Of States, By which they should agree
to open their mints to the free and unlimited
coinage Of silver and ,ou at a fixed proper
ton of weight between gold and silver con-
tanned in the unit OF each metal, and with the
full legal-tentlcr faculty to the money thus
issued, would cause and maintain n stability
iii tho relative value in the two metals suit
able to the Interests and requirements of the
commercial world. ANY ratio HON. or Of late
in use by any commercial nation.
if adoptc(l by sut!, al important
group of States, could he maintained, but the
adoption OF ratio Of fifteen and one-half Of
silver to one Of gold would accomplish the
principal object with less disturbance in the
monetary systems to be affected by it than
any other ratio. Without considering the
effect which might be produced toward the
desired object by 4 lesser combination of
States, Il combination which should include
England, France, Germany, and the United
States with the concurrence of the other
States both in Europe and on the American
Continent, which this combination would i'll
sure, would be adequate to insure. and wonId
be adequate to produce and maintain
throughout the commercial world the rcla-
ton between the metals that such combina-
tion should adopt"

Ny Russian correspondent again fayors me
with the following interesting details as to
the recent removal of the Court from Cat
china to Pe!erl,ot': "Tllc Emperor, still
avoiding the town rs mitch as possible,
changed his residence on Thursday from the
well-suardett Castle q Catclina to the equal
ly well protected Palace Of Peterhof. The
latter, small port at the mouth OF the Neva,
is reached in about alN hour from G;tchina,
by going across the coiNlecting branches of
railway, so rs to dispe4se with the journey
to town, This, therefore, was the route
taken BY the Czar, the Empress. and their
Court. The only account of this transfer Of
Imperial state Is given in the Golos, which
is permitted to have a privileged report
er at the Imperial headquarters, for
the purpose, it would seem, of put
ting matters in as rosy light
as possible and of allayins the fears cutcr-
tanned for the safety of the Imperial party.
This arrangement for the Gotos, while Civ
ing it decided monopoly for the moment
oyeAits contemporaries in Court ceremonies,
does not always give it just those details in
which readers are most interested, for news
paper descriptions Ut Court affairs must be
eluinently judicious.
''rhere is still, however, something to be
learned from te published account. Two
sQuadrons of Life Guards lined both sides of
the short road to the Gatchina station,
the public being restricted to the by
ways. The Imperial party drove in al open
carriage to the train, where they were met
by all the officers i'll tile village. The train
