The latest news from Stanley is vague, and
satisfactory only in that it gives no confrma-
ton to the reports of his death Information
brought by deserters, who left the expedition
at some indefinite time, is to the effect that
the natives had proved Unexpectedly hostile
and that the progress Of the expedition was
accompanied by continual fighting Mr.
Stanley himself is said to have been severely
wounded with an arrow 1t is possible that
out OF this circumstance grew the rumors OF
the explorers death.
The Imprisonment of so prominent an Irish
leader as Mr.. John Dillon inevitably produces
an outburst of indignation from Liberals and
Nationalists. Mr.. Dillon's health is delicate
and he has been sent to the inlirmary OF Dun
dalk Jail Confinement for six months may
have a serious effect on him. The enforce
ment of the Crimes Act with so great severity
is certainly calculated to produce the reaction
in favor of Home Rule which the Ayr election
seems to indicate has already set in. In MIR.
Dillon's case there was no increase of sentence
because of the appeal. Perhaps Mr.. Balfour
realizes that the "rusty weapons of brutal
tyranny" must not be used too often.
Our Washington Bureau furnishes THE
TRIyUNEs readers this morning with the full
text of the bill providing for an International
Marine Conference as agreed upon by Con-

IDENTIFY upon this scheme, but conference was
necessary to bring about harmonious action.
The passage of the bill now agreed on is GER
tain. The Conference is to meet in Washington
on October /, and it is expected that every
marine nation will be represented. President
Cleveland is authorized to appoint five dele
gates and Sic 5000 is appropriated for the ex-
penses The object of the Conference is to
devise means for increasing the safety of life
and property at sea. The necessity Of new
methods of signalling, of enabling vessels to
notify their approach to one another, ETC.. has
many times been made manifest, and the Con-
ference rightly conducted, will result in ines
Unable advantages
After adopting, amid unbounded enthusiasm,
the splendid platform read by Major Mckinley,

mainder of the day to speeches nominating
