WASHINGTON, ID. G.. July i5.-tSpe-
the movement to have n silver con-
ference in this city have not yet heard
whether or not Senator Daniel will be
present, but they confidently expect him
to be on hand. II Is understood that an
invitation was sent TO him TO meet Sena-
tors Harris. Turpie Jones (of Arkansas.
and others, who started the movement.
As explained in a letter from Senator
Jones. which was printed to-day. it Is
proposed to have the conference with
view to forming n central committee and
appointing various prominent men
in the States to look after the silver
issues. with a view TO influencing pub
lie opinion between now and the time for
electing delegates to the National Demo-
cratic Convention.
The agitation in regard to moving the
general Offices of the Southern railway TO
Atlanta has commenced again. but
nothing reliable can be learned here. No
one seems willing TO talk on the subject.
and so far all that has been done is the
meeting held at Atlanta by citizens, urg-
INK lfldl the OFFICES bt lotdltu tutits
From what IL heard in a quiet sort OF
way, but not, however, from any one au-
thorized TO speak for the company, IL Is
thought the offices will probably remain
in Washington. II is quite natural for
Atlanta people to want them Nothing
has been done here 10 indicate that citi-
zens of the capital city fear that they
will be deprived OF the offices.
