Result OF the Conference of the
Streightout Democratic.
CHARLESTON, s. c., July 1.-THE
straightout democrats held their conference
to- day to devise plans to defeat the agrarian
leader Tillman. 1t was decided to demand
primary and every possible effort will be
used to secure the primary.
A series Of resolutions setting forth the
situation in the state, the danger of Till
mans election and the honesty of the
present administration was adopted.
A committee, consisting Of one delegate
from each congressional district, was ap-
pointed to prepare and push a vigorous
campaign against Farmer Tillman Ex-
Consul John d. Kennedy OF Kershaw Is
chairman Of the committee. The delegates
were urged to push the fight, and every one
was appointed a committee OF one to push
the campaign against Tillman.
COURSE OF THE CAMPAIGN.
The course of the campaign committee
will depend very considerably upon the
course of &the executive committee OF the
farmers association, which has Farmer
Tillman's candidacy in charge.
The meeting adjourned after a continu-
GUS session of about twenty-four hours.
The result of the conference is very ques-
tionable. The meeting was very enthusias-
tic and demonstrative. The 400 delegates
present at the convention punched in
genuine '76 style. The business was trans
acted harmoniously.

IRISH LAND PURCHASE.
Parnell Suggests the Collection of
Statistics

IA hOAA khCSb5 bAlO SOticCbiCu Oh
Statistics
LONDON, July 11.-Mr. Parnell in the
House of Commons this evening made the
closing speech in the debate on the vote fer
Mr.. Baltour's salary as chief secretary for
Ireland. After remsrking that he was anx-
ious that the 93, 300, 900 proposed under the
land purchase bill should be used
to the best advantage to settle the
question. Mr. ParnelI suggested that
the constabulary be employed in
the autumn in obtaining returns from
estates in Munster and Connaught, showing
the rents paid respectively by the occupy
ing and non-occupying tenants. If that
tary Balfour would find the
magnitude Of the problem he had
undertaken TO solve enormously reduced
He would be enabled to SO modify the bill
that the available fund would go great
deal further than he had any present idea
of. 1t must be insisted, however, added
Mr. Parnell, that local money must not be
hypothecated without the consent of the
local authorities.
FULL OF INTEREST.
Mr.. Parnell. in opening his speech, said
he failed to recollect a time when this vote
presented so many objects of interest. He
himself had neither the time nor the in
clination to fathom the results of his own
action, and relied too implicitly upon the
advice of the effete and rotten castle officials.
He himself had always desired that
the plan Of campaign be limited as far as
possible to small estates; but the govern
ment was blamable for denying to lease
holders to these estates the benefits of the
land act. He urged Secretary Balfour now,
at the eleventh hour, to retrace his steps
and devote the remainder of the session to
some method of remedying this omission of
thirteen or fourteen estates where the plan
of campaign is still in operation.
SIGN OF WEAKNESS.
1t must be supposed, said Mr.. Parnell,
that this suggestion is sign of weakness.
These tenants would be protected to che
end. But he spoke in the interests of peace,
humanity and justice, not in the interests of
the pocket of the plan Of campaign.
Secre ary Balfour thanked Mr.. Parnell
for the moderation of his speech, and
promised to consider the matter.
At the conclusion of the speeches the
Parnellites engaged in animated
conversation upon the moderation of
Messrs. Parnell and Balfour, and
allowed the vote for the chief secretary's
of1ice to be passed without challenging the
division.
The Post says that Mr.. Parnell's speech
conveys strong encouragement to the gov
ernment to proceed boldly in the winter
session on the lines of agrarian reform
already marked out.

view of the free market accorded to Amer
loan imports in Great Britain, while the
heavy duties imposed on British goods in
the United States have nearly extinguished
the national debt of that country. the Brit
i-h government would invite the United
States government TO refrain from passing
the prohibitory tariff bill now before co.,
gress. and instead adopt a measure giving
fair commercial reciprocity.
Sir James Ferguson, under foreign sec
retary, replied that no such representations
were likely TO be successful.
GERMANY's ACTION.
Mr.. Vincent-How does the government
know what action Germany proposes to
take in response to the appeals Of German
traders regarding the effect of the new
American TARIFF Could not advantage
be taken of tue present friendly re! atoms to
develop free trade between England and
Germany as well as between Great Britain
and the colonies as a set of against the
hostile tariff in Americas
Sir James Ferguson replied that he
had reason to believe that
the German government did not intend to
take action at present. He said it would be
inconsistent with the fiscal policy of Eng
land to take the joint measures which Mr..
Vincent suggested.
Mr.. Charming asked whether the govern
ment would postpone the Heligoland cession
bill until France assents to an E-glish pro-
tectorate over Zanzibar.
Mr.. Smith, the government leader, de-
clined to give any promise.

ence on the Subject.
WASHINGTON, July 11.-President Har-
rison to-day transmitted to congress two
communications from the Secretary OF
State, enclosing in one the report of the
action of the international American con-
ference concerning the protection of pat
ents, trademarks and copyrights in trade
and commerce between the American re-
publics; aud in the other the action of the
same body for the better protection of the
public health against contagious diseases.
Respecting the last named subject, Secre-
tary Blaine, In his letter, says: "The sani-
tary officers of the gulf cities of the United
States have hitherto found great difficulty
in protecting the public health againsr con-
tagious diseases brought by shipping from
South America, Central America, Mexico
and West Indian ports without restricting
freedom of commerce.
"At certain seasons of the
year the quarantine regulations which they
have been compelled to adopt have often
placed an absolute embargo upon inter-
course with tropical countries where such
diseases originate The same difficulties
have been experienced In like measure by
neighboring nations, and the attention of
sanitary specialists both in Europe and
America has been for years engaged in the
task OF devioing some remedy.
INTERNATIONAL CONVENTIONS.
international sanitary conventions were
held at Rio de Janeiro ia 1887, and at Lima,
Peru, in 1889, and were composed of emil
nent scientists, who gave the subject the
closest attention. At both these conven-
tions regulations were adopted for the pro-
lection of shipping aud for ports exposed to
infection, which agree In all their
essential provisions. Those in the conven-
ton of Rio de Janeiro were adopted by
Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay and the Argen-
tine Republic, and are now enforced in the
ports Of those nations. The recommenda-
tions of the Lima conference have not yet
been carried into effect. Colombia. Vene-
zuela and the nations of Central and North
America were not represented in either con-
vention, but they are equally interested
in securing the results desired, and the in
ternational health conference recommends
the acceptance and enforcement by them of
/ the regulations Of the Rio de Janeiro con-
vention, or those adopted at Lima, as the
best systems that have yet been devised.
