JoRNsrowN, Pa.-The relief committee
returned to work this morning With re-
aewed vigor. The weather is most favor.
able, almost cool enough here this morn
ing for an overcoat. Gar load after car
load of provisions arriving and the Penn
syivania railroad tracks are blocked. The
train-rnaster reports that there Is plenty
en- route. This also is encouraging, be-
canse the demand now for provisions is
much greater than any time since the
flood. There are now some 1000 or 5000
laborers at work cleaning away the debris,
and they must be fed and housed. Thirty
five carloads arrived here this morning
They organized into squads, each headed
by com petent men, and the work is to be
carried or most systematically. Laborers
are what Is most needed ana they are be
ing sent in by car loads from adjoining
states. The outrageous conduct of some
'toughs" passes belief. This is why such
vigorous measures have to be adopted by
the police. 1t can be said on good
authority that number of these fends
have been killed and their bodies thrown
into the river without any report being
made. In every instance is was iustif-
able.

THE SAMOA CONFERENCE.
The Action of the Conference is Now at Il
Slandstill.

SIandstill.
BERLIN. The delay on trausmis-
sion from Washington of assent to
the Samon treaty has originated rumors
to the effect that Blaine desired revision
in several points. Inquiries at the for
eIgu office and English embassy elicited
the information that nothing has occurred
that is likely to retard the exchange of
signatures or req airing further reference
to committees on plenary conference.
Blaine has been in communication with
Phelps regard ng verbal amend
ments to portocols, which were
submitted TO Count Herbert and Sir Ed
ward Maet and accepted without com
ment. Offcls! Irritation over Blaine's
cautious scrutiny of the protocols is
abatiug with the growing recognition of
justice and the value that America places
upon the final and decisive settlement of
Samoad qnestions. The impotence of
the foreign office to close the matter has
not FASTENED the action of Lord Sails
bury any more than 1t has Blaine. The
English commissioners do not attach
the slightest Importance to the dilstory
procedure of their foreign office. As
soon as the Washington government ca.
bles sign" Lord Salisbury's assent will
be ready. From the nature of the latest
! communication to the American commis-
sion, it is expected the conference will
meet Wednesday for the last time.
| Blaine has asked concerning the arrange
ments for the return of Malietos.
| IL is settled that the electoral decision
| OF the natives will be taken some time
/ after Malietos is reipsyate6.

TuE writer's who never tire of repre-
senting France as on the declire, take
precious good care not TO meddle with
the facts and figures OF the case. The
New York Tribune puts these pessimists
to ro1t in brief comparison between
the condition of France now and a hun
dred years ago. Then there was not
savings bank in the country; now there
are deposits in such institutions rggre-
eating S55o,UoO,O00. Then the gross
value of personal property was S6o,Ooo-
600; now it is 81 6Oo, 100000. Then the
national income was 5000. .00o, ,000 year;
now 1t is $4,000. 100000. The land was
worth on the average $40 an acre; now it
worth S135. Then there were 10000, 900
acres of wheat at eleven bushels an acre;
now there are IL, SOC, 900 acres at eighteen
bushels each. Then agricultural Isborers
got 13 cents a day; now they get so cents
Then it cost the government S22 SOC, 900
to collect a revenue of S135, 900 600; now
it costs S35 SOC, 600 to collect 5000, COO. coo
Indeed, almost the only item that shows
no great change is that of direct taxation
which has risen from $726, ,000, 900 only to
Sss2, ,2os, 600.
