SAN Francisco, Aug. 30.-In the com
mercial conference to-day the reports OF
the committees made yesterday were
adopted with some amendments. In the
meantime the report in reference to free
ships was striker out and in its stead was
adopted a recommendation that the French
bounty system be adopted. The report
favoring Pacific ocean cable was adopted.
The committee appointed to confer
with Chairman Cooley, of the inter
state commerce commission, reported
his views on the relations on the
Canadian railroads Regarding the ap-
0licaton of the interstate law to the
Canadian Pacific road, or the abolition of
the conding system, two lengthy reports
n,yere submitted. the majority report deem
ing it an unwise time to urge Congress to
take action in these premises. The min
ority report favors the abolition of the law
granting to for, IN railways the privilege of
carrying domestic goods to domestic points.
A resolution was presented in the confer
ence setting forth that the long and short

The Connection for Chinese Teas.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3O.-Uuited States
Minister DENLY in his report to the depart
ment of state says: .'The curiousities Of the
tea trade are sufficiently interesting to
warrant my calling some attention to them.
Prophecies innumerable have been made
that the Indian teas will drive the Chinese
teas out of the market, but we find from a
summary of the first weeks tea business in
Krakow, and which Ilenclose, with clipping
from the north China Nelus of May 81, that
never not even when Indian and Ceylon
teas were unknown, has competition been
so keen and prices been so high The
reason assigned for these remarkable
prices is the competition betwe nsRu ssian
and English tea buyers. Weile in London
last seasons teas are being sold at sacrifices
reaching so per cent, the new seasons teas
in China are 20 and 80 per cent. higher
than last year The one thing for China to
do to permanently regain her markets is to
take off the export duty"

sisting of represent ltives of Great Britain,

The Great LonIon Strike.

LONDON, Aug. 40.-Indications this morn
ing are not very favorable to an immediate
settlement of the strike. A meeting of the
committee of the strikers was held last
night, at which important action was taken,
looking to making the strike general. A
manifesto was issued this morning solemnly
appealing to workers in every calling in
London to strike on Monday next unless the
demands of the dockmen are acceded to.
phe final demands are Cd. per hour for are
gular days work, Sd. per hour for over
time, counting from p. IA. until s am
Under the contract system the pay to be Sd.
during regular working hours and shilling
for overtime, nobody to be employed n
less than four hours. A mass meeting of
workmen has been called for Sunday, in
Hyde park.
The manifesto is signed by all the labor
organizations, including steyedores', sail
ors' and firemen's unions, numbering
$4,000. The association of these unions is
most important. If the dock companies
refuse to accede to the terms demanded,
grave complications must enSue forthwith
The condition of affairs is becoming graver
hourly. Burns addressed 5000 men at
Tower hill, giving as the watchword mo
surrender" He was cheered to the echo.
Three thousand iron workers at Keighly
have struck.
Cardinal Manning. Sir Andrew Lusk and
the lord mayors deputy conferred with the
officials of the dock companies to-day. 1t
is understood the cardinal pleaded the cause
of the strikers. 1t is reported that the
stolzers are dissatisfied, and fears are en-
tertained that London will be in darkness
in case they strike, with additional danger
by reason of neglected retorts.
The strikers are boasting that Monday
next will witness gigantic amalgamated
strike of the workers in every industry,
unless the ultimatum of the dockmen be ac-
cepted by noon tomorrow.
In an interview this evening, Burns,
leader of the strikers, said he felt de-
pressed, although he hoped for the best.

SUGAR PALACES FOR ALL.
spreckles to Make Stone from Sugar-He Has
Made Money from it, Why Eots

Especial to THE HERAID-Examlner Dispatch. /
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30-Claus Spreckles
will be sugar king indeed Dr. George
CLAWS, of this city, well known as a lawyer
and representative of the North German
Lloyd Steamship line, has just returned
from Europe and crossed the Atlantic with
Claus Spreckles. DIR. CLAWS states that he
has in his hands Mr.. Spreckles' application
for patent on process for producing
building stone artifcially, the basis being
nothing more or less than sugar. In short,
the architect will design houses out of ma
terial more beautiful than anything it is
now possible to use for building purposes,
and that material will be sugar
The discovery Is one made by Mr.
SpreckleS. The process is similar to that
by which gelatine is hardened. 1t has long
been the practice among engrayers to take
copy of a plate on gelatine, and harden it
until it becomes like steel It is proposed
to accomplish something of a similar result
with sugar. The claim is made that the
material can be artifcially produced cheaper
than any good grade of building stone,
which is harder than granite, impervious
to moisture, and unaffected by heat; whittier
and more beautiful than marble. and which
will stand q crushing weight that would
make powder out of granite.
DR.. CLAWS says that his distinguished
client will demonstrate the utility of his
invention in a practical way. If permitted,
he will give bonds to construct the pro
posed new wings of the White House out
of sugar blocks, and will forfeit the bonds
if the material is not more weatherproof
than brick, more beautiful than marble,
more durable than granite, and better in
every respect than any building stone now
known. AS to cheapness, it is less costly
than any other building material suitable
for the same purpose.
