IS about to place a proposition before Europ-
ean countries relative to the issue of an in
Sernational postage stamp. 1t Is believed
that such a stamp wolld be boon to all
who carry on any international correspond

stamp postage for an outgoing letter
One Is therefore compelled to depend upon
return postage. The German minister Of
posts has designed such an international
stamp, and has arranged a plan for its

Of all the countries in which its value as

envoy to Mexico. has delayed activ,
negotiations on the internal bound,
AIRY question, which has now resolved
itself into routine auditing work and
diplomatic correspondents. 1t has been
generally accepted now for over week

for war unless things should take an

General Luis Torres, governor of Son
