has requested the American delegates to
the international monetary conference to
visit him in Washington before they return
to Brussels to be present at the next session

pose of the call of the delegates to Wash

financial situation in relation to the silver
coinage question, and the preparation of
silver which the American delegation can
submit to the conference.

poEement should occur the conference will
reconvene at Brussels May 80 ALI the

draw his resignation.
A delegation of Choctaw Indians, repre-
senting the Jones faction, had an interview
to-day with Secretary Smith. They repre-
sented that Jones was legally elected
Governor of the nation, and the whole
difficulty was brought about by the refusal
of the Locke people to recognize his legally
constituted authority. A number of the
Locke followers it was asserted. had been
indicted and convicted under the law of
crimes, and the effort made by Governor
Jones TO enforce the law and carry into
effect the sentences imposed met with armed
resistance. The Governor is to be sustained
by the Government in preserving peace and
bringing the criminals tn justice.
