This action has been taken after due

WE GET ONLY A HALF LOAF

Ing silver as at present and The
other Nations To Purchase I'm
less The Price Gets Too High.
LONDON, Nov. 29.-Referring to the
monetary conference the Daily News
saws: Alfred De Rothschilds plan,
which seems to have saved the confer
ence from collaps:ng, turns out to be
mild and in no sense heroic. Theoreti-
cally it would be best to let silver alone,
but when we find RcLhschild trying to
prevent collapse OF the conference it
may be supposed that such results would
be disastrous.
I'VE cannot suppose it can be re-
motely suggested that the five pound
notes would be made redeemable in sill.

is the belief Of the first rank hnanciers
that unless something is done America
will discontinue the purchase of silver

interest to prccipitate currency crisis
in America. The disturbance of trade
would amount to catastrophe"
BRUSSELS, Nov. 29.-The plan OF Mr.
De Rothschid is in brief that syndi
cate of nations be formed to make pur.
chases of silver to the amount 5000 00C
pounds sterling and that the United
States continue her purchases of silver as
at present. In the event of the price o.
silver rising above forty-three pence pei
ounce purchases are to be at once sus
pended. 1t is the general expectation
that Mr. De Rothschild's proposals will
be accepted by the committee and ther
referred for adoption or rejection to tht
conference and governments represented
with notifications suggested by the
schemes of NJ. Levy.
The American delegates have reason:
to be satisfied with the recognition OF th'
advocates of mono-metallism and the
seriousness OF the dangers arising from &
further fall in silver. They are disposed
to support Mr.. De Rothschild's proposal:
on the principle that a half loaf is bettel
than no bread.

II In Time.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-Owing to his
present affliction the President will be
unable to complete his annual message
to Congress in time for submission to
that body on the opening day OF the
session. The present indications are
that he will be precluded from making
any progress whatever during the re-
naming days of the present week. Con-
sequently it is more than probable that
the completion of the message will be
delayed until the end of next week or
the beginning OF the following week.
The President will probably send a
brief message to congress Monday next
explaining why the regular message is
delayed.
1t is learned on good authority that
the annual message will be about the
length of that of last year and will i'll

PATRONS OF INDUSTRY
Hold County Picnic at North Park and
Have Fun,


The Patrons of Industry of Kent
county held . picnic at North park
yesterday and several hundred of them
were present. They plugged water
melons and scooped out the core; they
ate peanuts and scattered the shucks
about to be trodden into the lawns by
the foot of man. They consumed red
lemonade and regulation lemonade
and ate lunch under the trees. Yellow
legged spring chickens constituted part
of the lunch. Great fat chickens that
had been stuffed with sage dressing and
roasted in an oven. And they had pies.
Such lot of pies. Some OF them had two
crusts and some one. The one-crusted
contingent were made Of pumpkin or
custard, and some of 'em were lemon.
Then there were blackberry and buckle
berry pies, and some of the patrons
meat last winter brought mince pies.
There wasn't anything formal about
the lunch. They went at 1T In go-as-
you-please style As they became hungry
and nobody thought of beginning with
soup. There wasn't any terraDln or
mulligatawney any way, and the only
man that brought any soup came from
Plalnfield and carried it in Jug.
After lurch the delegates drank lit.
tie more red lemonade. Then some OF
them invaded the pavilion and called
for little celery phosphate, and cafe
zoza and orange Flip, and all the rest
of the fancy drinks that cheer, but do
not destroy the appetite for home
brewed root beer and buttermilk.
About o'clock one of the patrons re-
marked that it twas gettin' blamed
near milkin' time" and the picnicers
went home to corrall the hogs and
curry the horses, tired but happy,
very happy.
