LONDON, Sept. 11.-[Copyrighted by
the New York Associated Press AL
though the new unionists held an over
whelming majority in the trades union
congress-, they used their power with
moderation and discretion, in marked
contrast with last years meeting, which
was Socialistic to the last. Land nation
alization and denunciations of capital
were not permitted to occupy the atten-
ton of the congress, the delegates ap-
plying themselves to discussions of an
Immediately practical nature. The
Democratic character of the congress
was never more pronounced, though So
.,cialistic views were less obtrusive. The
pervading tone of the speeches showed
conviction that labor will, within the
near future dominate parliament and
make the country's laws. The old
unionists displayed the same conscious
ness of mastery If position as the new
unionists, though tanner in vindicating
their labor claims and predictions of vic
tory. The moderates could not prevent
the ultra-Democratic section from pass
ing some erratic resolutions. The pro-
ceedings eliminated today in contest
between the old and new unionists over
the election of parliamentary commit
tee. The existing committee has large
element of old unionists and moderate
men desiring to reform the constitution.
The congi ess gave the ultras less power.
THE DARDANELLEs QUESTION.
The rumor that the Dardanelles ques-
ton has subsided is untrue. Lord Sal
isbury is actively taking diplomatic
steps. The porte's ambassador here
was summoned to Constantinople yes
terday to give an account of his posi-
ton. Elk Grand Vizier Kiamil Pasha
continues a prisoner in his
own house. The British minis
ter at Constantinople, Sir William
White, and the German ambassador,
Eerr Won Radowitz have made repre-
sentations to the sultan with view to
the protection of Keamil Pasha. The
Sultan who gave an audience today to
Herr Won Radowitz, denied that his de-
signs were inimical to any European
power, and stated, referring to Kiamil,
that there was no serious charge against
him. A dispatch today from Constanti-
nople says Kiamil will probably be ap-
pointed governor OF Smyrna.
CHILEAN AMBASSADORS.
The personnel of the Chilean legation
here act in conjunction with Augustin
Ross, the Chilean junta's agent.
lAuguste Matte, of Paris, and Claudio
Matte, of Berlin, acting for the iunta,
have taken temporary charge ot the
legations in those cities. Seflor Godoy,
Balmaceda's late Agent, has ceased to
act. The cruiser Presidente Pinto to-
night passed up the river toward Ham
burg, pending the legal question that
appears to retard the surrender OF the
vessel to the junta.
WALES AT HIS TRICKS.
The prince of Wales is about to visit
Sir Frederick Johnston at Dumfries, and
Lord Lonsdale at Lowther castle. Both
the latter are noted sportsmen, fond of
shooting by day and playing baccarat at
night. In view of this fact, the watch
full suspicious OF the religious classes are
are keenly fixed on the prince.
TWO NOTABLE WEDDINGS.
The prince and princess of Wales and
the duke of Clarence promise to be pres
emu at Ine WeuuinS Vi IHo eeil Vi Ouoioy
to Miss Guerney, which will be most
notable event, attracting the entire at
tention of society. The famous Dudley
diamonds, reset, consisting of six tiaras,
. and parures will be displayed.
The marriage of Mr. rennant, brother
of Mrs. Henry M. Stanley, to Miss Lizzie
Tilton, Washington belle, is fixed for
December.
THE QUEEN GROWING OLD.
The queens health is weak, and her
physicians regulate her diet more strictly
than ever. Visitors find a notable in
crease in the queens aspect of age.
