AS to the Course He Will
Take in Appointing
THE VARIOUS COMMITTEES
He Denies Reports Circulated
as Without q Basis.

New YORK, August "A
Worlds Washington special says:
Speaker Crisp authorizes the state
ment that there is no basis whatever
for any one of the many reports
which have been circulated regard.
ing the appointment of chairmen of
committees. He has not decided
upon a single appointment, and will
not do 80 for several days; certainly
not before the arrival of the presi-
dent and Secretary Carlisle, and
probably not until caucus
shall lave officially designated him
as its candidate for speaker. lie
does not expect to announce COM
mittees until eight or ten days after
the organization on Monday. He
may make an exception of the COM
mittee on coinage, but has reached
no such determin alton az yet. The
speakers sole aim is to do only that
which will be of greatest service to
the party. To accomplish that
purpose he feels the necessity of
earnest cooperation with the adj
ministratiop, and he has not
seen either the president
or the secretary of the
treasury for several weeks He
will not attempt to reach conclu-
sion until he shall have an opportu-
nifty to consult with them, as well
as with leading members of the
house, upon whom he must depend
for support on the floor. The
truth is that all depends upon the
tone of the message. If Mr.. Cleve-
land shall confine his recommended
tions strictly to repeal, with no hint
of subse quent legislation in the
direction of bimetallism, it might
be considered wise to Iit
Cochran against the reioub'able
Bland, in which event Cockrai
would leave the ways and means
to become chairman of the coinage
committee. IL, on the other hand,
the president should deem more
pacific policy advisable, it might be
considered wise to permit Mr.. Blar 4
to retain his hositiop, if he should
care to do SO, despite an opposing
ajority in his committee. AS the
composition of the ways and means
committee will be affected By that
of the coinage COMMITTEE ,
espe cially with reference TO
Cochran, 1T IS easy to see reaao, i
for the statements made, but all de.
pends upon the presidents policy as
outlined in his message.

various immigration agencies in the

ing the various industrial and asri.
cultural regions Of the country with
pamphlets and leaflets di'ating in
glowing terms upon the opportunity
for profitable employment of arti.

cultural laborers in the United
States, that country being repre-
sented SIS being on the tir-top wave

As result of these representations
numerous immigration clubs have
been organized on an installment
principle in the west and north of
England, and the agents have been
looking forward to one Of the big
gest harvests of recent years in their
line. Gable dispatches of the past
few weeks, however, have convinced
the intending emigronts that it is
better for the time being to endure
present evils than to seek worse
ones in a new country, and as a
result the boom has petered out.

International Trades Union.
Special to the News
NEW York, August "A special
cable from Zurich, Switzerland,
says: The great International Con
gress of Trade Unionists and So.
cialists will be called to order to.
morrow morning in the town hall.
Over 1000 delegates had arrived up
to today, and it is thought that the
total representation will be double
that number. No delegates from
the United States have 30 far ar
rived, and comparatively few of the
French socialists are on hand, The
elections Of August 20 proving a
stumbling block to their presence.
At the meeting today of the execu-
tive committee it was decided that
the president of each days proceed
lngs should be elected at the begin.
ming of each day, and successfully
from the different nations repre-.
sented. The German unions are
strongly represented, and SO is the
English Trade Union Congress, the
London Trades Council, the Mnera'
Federation, the International Labor
League, the Social Democratic Fed.
Grafton, and numerous other Eng.
fish organizations.
Over two hundred resolutions
have so far been filed by the dele.
gates for discussion and action.
One from the Swiss delegation de-
clares that the next fight of wage
earners the civilized world over,
must be for an international legal
eight hour day, and that this must
be accomplished by the political
organization of the working classes
in connection with trades unionism.
The Dutch socialists have reso.
luton advising wsge.workers to use
national elections only as a means
of propaganda, and to permit their
representatives to enter parliament
simply to protest against the pres.
ent capitalistic regime, but not to
take part in parliamentary work
proper.
The French delegation has filed a
resolution favoringa unity Of action
between the revolutionary social.
lists and the communist anarchists,
but this will be vigorously opposed
by the German social democrats. A
number of resolutions are to be
fled in behalf of the American Ger
mans, but their exact purport has
not yet developed. The French
have three resolutions relating to
May day demonstrations, the Paris
Labor Exchange urging that it
should not be merely a workers
holiday, but a manifestation for
the purpose of bringing about in.
ternational peace. The Paris So.
cialists' Alliance boldly declares
that war should be abolished in Eu-
rope, and suggests the formation Of
an international court of arbitrators
to be composed Of delegates from
all nations, to be elected by the va
rious parliaments or congresses, one
for each million of population.

While We were eating supper a dozen
Indian girls were gathered about table

house, busily engaged in blowing out the
contents of several hundred eggs and fill

tinsel, bright scraps Of paper. Each egg
was then sealed with white wax and
ready for the cascaron frolic of the even

Wehad been dancing, singing and talk

eggs were brought in. In an instant ev-
cry girls hair was unbound, wild dive
was made for the trays and eggs flew in
every direction. Dancing was forgotten.
The girls and men chased each other
about the room; the air was filled with
perfume and glittering particles, the lat
ter looking very pretty on black floating
hair. Etiquette demanded that only one
egg should be thrown by the same hand
at time, but quick turns of supple
wrists followed each other very rapidly.
To really accomplish feat the egg must
crash on the back Of the head, and each
occupied In attack was easy prey.
