OF IL. at New Orleans.

Cleveland, Ohio, Nov. 19.-The opening
session of the W. G. I. U. convention to-
day was not SO well attended as previous
sessions. The reports of superintendents
were taken up. Mrs. Mary F. Lowell, of
Massachusetts, reported for the depart
ment of mercy and spoke against the use
of birds for the adornment of ladies' hats
and against the killing of seals for use in
cloaks. She urged her hearers to look
into what she termed "the horrors of the
slaughter house." She offered a resolu-
tion, which was unanimously adopted,
urging the creation of a sentiment among
the young people of this country against
the practice of vivisection,

PLENTY OF GOLD.
Consul General Maratta Advises
Western Miners to Come to
Australia, In HIS Report to
the state Department.

Washington, Nov. 19.-Very timely, in
view of the great rush of prospectors
from all quarters of the globe to the
newly discovered gold mines of Australia,
is the exhaustive report to the state de-
partment from United States Consul
General Maratta, at Melbourne. He has
been besieged with letters of inquiry
from residents of Colorado and other
western mining states. The gist of the
report is as follows:
'There is good opportunity here for
miners from the United States well-versed
in the best methods of obtaining gold,
but it is absolutely necessary that they
come we'll provided with both funds and
experience and with sufficient means to
last them six months, irrespective of
what gold they may obtain. If some of
our large manufactures of mining ma
chinery and appliances would send rep
resentative out to this colony, it would,
in my opinion, we'll repay them"
UNCLE SAM AS PEAoEMAKER.
The China-Japan incident, SO far as the
United States offer of mediation is con-
cerned, is considered closed for the
present. At the department and at the
Chinese and Japanese legati ons there is
to be obtained only negative information
to the effect that no positive answer to
the American suggestion of mediation
has been received. Those we'll informed
say, however, that Japan has made hel
position clear in such way as to avoic
the embarrassment of a positive declina
tion. Her acceptance, on the other hand
would have to be based on certain def
mite conditions.
HEAVY GOLD WITHDRAWAL.
To-day's gold withdrawal from tht
New York sub-treasury amounted tt
$1,64S,0O0, making total for all nc
counts, since the announcement of tht

of Europe, attended by glittering suites,
were present. After long service, the
czarina, the cZar, and others present
took last farewell of the remains of

coffin was then carried by the czar and
certain princes to its tomb.

leaders in the movements: "For several
months an understanding has existed
among the leading silver men of the
