untrue. The continental delegates are
very impatient to learn what the precise
nature will be of the proposals of the
American delegates. Many of the dele
gates freely exchange their views private
ly and few are sanguine that o satisfactory
solution Will be found to the currency ques-
ton. The use Of three different languages
in the official proceedings of the conference
will lead to much delay. When speech is
made IL will not be ineligible to all the
delegates until the day following the de-
livery. when the official formulation into
English, French and German is circulated.
The system adopted will, however, have
the advantage of affordiDg time for q care

tain that q majority of the delegates are
empowered merely to study the facts ad-
vauced. and to report thereon to their
