Mr.. Eustis also reports that access to
Mr. Waller has been accorded to him, az
ter repeated and urgent requests made on
the reiterated orders OF the department
of state. The department not having been
advised whether Mr.. Eustls has taken ad-
vantage of this permission TO delegate a

ent confined and confer with him, Mr.
Adee has instructed him by telegraph that
he should do so at once II not already

Matters.
London. Aug. 22.-In the House OF Com.
mons to-day Sir John Leng member foE
Dundee, asked Mr.. A J. Balfour, nrst
lord Of the treasury whether. IN conso.
nance with the view he had repeatedly
expressed. he would advise that the gov
ernment invite the assembling OF an ins
ternauonal conference in order to obtnin
an agreement In regard 20 the currency.
Mr.. palfour said he had always been
strongly IN favor Of an International
agreement upon the currency question.
but that he had no right to pledge his
colleagues TO such an opinion. nor had
he any reason for thinking that such au
agreement would result at the present
moment from an international conference.
second abortive conference. he thought
would be undesirable.
Mr.. George NJ. Curxon, under secretary
for foreign affairs. stated that under in
Structi0ns Vice Consul Hampson had vis~
tied the district OF Sassoun in Armenia
with the object Of having the foreign mis-
,sionnries act In concert In the distributions
OF food and other supplies for the support
OF the inhabitants Of the villages ia thein
vicinity during the coming winter.
In regard 20 the Christian prisoners ara
rested by the Turkish authorities. he saids
since the decree OF amnesty issued on
July %, the prisoners confined In Constans
tinOple had been released. but there was
reason 70 suppose that a number OF priso-
ners were still detained in Angora. Bitliss
Diarbekir and elsewhere and the atten-
tion OF the porte had been called TO this
action Of the provincial governors.
DR.. Tanner, the anti-P0rnelnte, who rep-
resents the Middle division OF County
Cork. who was suspended for a week for
disorderly conduct In the House, reap
peared in the chamber to-day, the time
of his suspension having expired. Ho
was IN good spirits.
Several short speeches on the estimates
were made.
Mr.. T. p. O'Connor, anti-Parnelite mems
ber for the Scotland division OF Liverpool,
asked the government to reconsider the
sentence of life imprisonment imposed on
Mrs. Florence Maybrlck, who was con-
victed some years ago OF poisoning her
husband, who was a well known merch-
ant OF Liverpool. Mr. oConnor said he
did not know Of case that excited more
abiding interest and the stronger convic-
tion OF innocence. Sir Matthew White
Ridley, secretary of state for tho home
department, promised 20 give his best at
tention 70 the case.

were spotted on the outgoing train this
evening. for all trains had been under sur
velllance for the suspects. As Detective
Powers was going through the train, he
saw two men In the smoker who tailed
with the description given.
He grabbed one and at the same time
blew his whistle for aid, as other Of
ficers were aboard going through other
cars. The moment he blew his whistle.
one OF the men drew a revolver and shot
him through the head and he fell 70 the
car floor, AS the other officers rushed in,in
response TO his whistle, the two men fed
and jumped from the train, escaping In
the darkness.
The whole detective force was at once
called out and every available policeman
was detailed to search the country for
the desperadoes.
Detective Powers was removed to the
hospital The physicians cannot state
whether he Will live or not.
