The tour Of the delegates to the Pan
American Congress ended at Philadelphia
last week, and the delegates dispersed to
meet again in Washington next week, to
consider questions Of commerce and trade
between the independent nations of the
two continents. Pan means whole and the
Congress includes delegates from every in
dependent nation Of North, South and Cen
tral America, and they are all Republics,
or al least have republican forms of gov
ernment, excepting Brazil, which is an
empire. The Congress was originated by
Secretary Blaine, and viii probably result
In closer commercial relations between the
American nations, thing that our states
men should have paid more attention to
year. ago. For instance, we send millions
of dollars to Brazil every year for coffee,
and our money in turn goes TO Europe for
machinery and other articles that we man
ufscture As good and as cheaply a. do the
Europeans, but for which we have no ready.
transportation, while England has lines Of
steamer running to all the principal ports
Of BrazI. The delegate Of the Argentine
Republic said that il now takes four months
TO receive an answer TO letter sent from
this country 10 his, because the letter and
answer have TO 60 and come via Europe.
His country exports hides, hard-woods,
vools and and other articles, and imports
al lis mechanical appliances, iron and
steel, nearly all Of which now comes
from Europe. Bolivia, Ecuador, Peru,
Chill. Columbia and Venezuela are all get
ting the bulk Of their manufactured
articles from Europe at present, and in in
terviews their delegates expressed hopes Of
closer commercial relations with Us. With
our neighbor OF Mexico, and the other
states Of Central America-Costa Rica,
Honduras and Nicaragua-we already have
. fair trade. but It can be improved. Pitts
burg was the last city visited by the dele
gates and they were greatly impressed by
the extent and variety Of its manufacturing
establishments, and particularly with the
Carnegie steel works at Braddock and the
plate glass plant at Tarentum.

WHEN you analyze that decision Of the
Supreme Court in the case OF Common
wealth versus the druggist, Fleming, of
Pittsburg; appealed from the Quarter Scs-
sons Of Mercer county, it does not look
night. The Supreme Court decided that
the sale was made in Pittsburg. when
Fleming delivered the goods" to the Ex-
pres Company, although they were con
signed G. o. d., which meant that the Ex-
press Co. was TO, and did, collect the price
charged for them, from the buyer at Mcr-
Ger. Three Of the Judges disscntej from
this opinion and hold that the sale was
made in Mercer, where the money changed
hands. that an Express Co in G. o. ID.
sale, Is the agent Of the seller; and that
the seller Of liquor must know the charac-
ter OF habits Of the buyer. We think the
minority Judges are right in this matter,
and Il can be demonstrated in this way
Suppose Mr. Jonca, citizen of Butler, or
ders a case of liquor from Pittsburg

course il would. The property is the deal

should deliver the goods 10 Mr.. Jone,
without receiving the money for them, OF
