asking the United States to invite all
the countries of the world, eastern,
western and southern, to attend a
monetary conference. The new feature
of the proposed conference is that it
shall not be restricted to the European
gold standard countries, but shall in
clude the South American and oriental
silver standard countries. Moreover.
the invitations to the conference are
to contain a declaration of the United
States that the purpose of the con-
ference shall be the establishment and
maintenance of an international ratio.
with the specific declaration added
that if such ratio cannot be agreed
upon, it will be the purpose of the
United States to adopt single stand

men, Chandler thinks that the hands

welcome him. MitchelPs weight on
Monday was 1856 pounds and he has
but little flesh to get off, as he has
been training pretty hard. In the par
ty were Mitchell, Jack Fogarty and
Harry Darrin. Some annoyance is
manifested by officers of the Duyal

belts manager, that he had received
positive assurance the fight would not
be interfered with Such state
ment is considered very indiscreet be-

club, expects a decision by the courts

favorable to the legality of the contest.
it is not believed the governor will per-
sist in his further opposition.
Mitchell gave an exhibition tonight
at the opera house to an immense audi
ence. At the conclusion of the English
mans bout with Fogarty, there were
loud calls for a speech and Mitchell
stepped to the footlights and said:

BRAZILIAN OUTRAGE.
American Sailors Imprisoned and
Che Flag Hauled Down.

Philadelphia. Dec. 27.-The American
schooner Grace Andrews. commanded
by Captain Andrews, has arrived from
Brazil Captain Andrews tells a story
of outrageous treatment by Peixoto's
soldiers in Rio harbor Captain An
drews had started from his ship to the
harbor in a small boat and when within
hailing distance of the shore hoisted
the American flag, but the soldiers on
the shore shouted: IF you don't top
we viii shoot you and fired several
shots. Therefore the captain put a
boat on shore and was arrested, to-
gether with three sailors, and placed
in prison. He was then taken to Rio
and the chief of police put them in
Jail without any food. He managed
to communicate with the American
consul and obtain his release. The cap
tain complained about the soldiers hav-
ing hauled down the American flag on
his small boat, but the consul paid no
attention to it. He claims the facts of
the situation at Rio are suppressed by.
the officials and that the American
press has incorrect news.
