TO the results so far Of the International
monetary conference" said Secretary
Charles Foster to reporter at the treas

grave mistake" he said, " to assume that
the conference will prove to be failure"
There is every reason for expecting the
conference to reassemble at the date liked
upon. The fact that Rothschild made
any proposition for the increase OF silver,
coupled with his declaration that unless
something was done TO insure It's better
use among the nations very serious con-
sequences would follow. Is in itself a
