PRESIDENT DIAZ TO THE CON-
GRESS OF THE RE-
PUBLIC.
He Congratulates the Country Upon Its
Condition and Emphasizes Parti-
cularly the Fact That There Has
Been an Immense Increase in the
Production of the Precious Metals.

City of Mexico. Sept. l6.-The adj
dress delivered this evening by Presi-
dent DiaZ. on the opening OF congress,
referring to the diplomatic relations
with the United States was in part as
follows:
"On the sixth of May last, n owen

distribution of the waters of the Bravo,

of disputed territory arising from
changes in the bed of the Rio Grande,
relating to the Chamilla tract, claimed
by both commissions to Mexico.
Referring to the attack on the No.

parties will be asked for of the United
States. The president then rele:s to
the recent attempt to hold Il pan-Amer-
lear conference in the City of Mexico
to consider the Monroe doctrine. This
idea originated with the government
of Ecuador and though the congress-
had dissolved after only a few meet
ings and without accomplishing any
thing, it does not follow that its aims
will not be some day attained.
Mining industry in Mexico had made
remarkable progress as shown not only
by the large number Of grants. but by
the returns of exports of the precious
metals, which during the first nine
months of the fiscal year. ending June

against $3S, 800, 900 in the correspond
ing period Of the preceding year.
The most important part Of the mes
sage relates to the financial situation
in Mexico, the cash revenue amounting
for the last fiscal year to $50, DOC, 900 the
largest revenue yet recorded, and the
year closed June 30 with a surplus Of
four and a half mollion dollars. The
surplus is now in excess of six mil

MEANS DEFEAT FOR BRYAN
Bourke Cochran Talks of the Rcpub-
lican Victory in Maine.

In the opinion of Bourke Cochran
the sweeping sound money victory in
Maine means that the defeat of Bryan
is f~oreordained. at means the col
lapse of the free silver craze. he said
yesterday morning. Long G | said
that just as SOC as the people could
be made to realize that this is a Ques-
ton Of labor and not banks, that the
attempt to create cheap money was a
conspiracy which would be more dis
astrous to the wage earners than any
other class the victory would be won.
The result of the election in Maine has
shown that this has come to pass.
When the people thoroughly under
stand the issue. every northern state
will be safe. even believe that We
can carry Colorado for sound money on
this issue.'-Omaha Bee.

Dear Mr.. Crumrine: l have just re-

mense. There is no humbug about
them. The country is extensive and
the mines rich. I got assays from three
lots of rock-$2Os, 1910 and $21. so. You
could see no gold in any of these. Most

GOLD f RESIGN.

New Haven, Conn, Sept. 16.-The
democratic state convention assembled
in this city today and began its bust
ness with every indication OF being as
memorable an occasion as has ever
arisen in the political history Of Con-
necticut. While the delegates. num-
boring 800, were almost solidly for en-
dorsement OF the Chicago platform
and candidates. the whole machinery
of the party in the state was in the
hands of the gold standard men. An
ticipating the upset which this onYen
ton made inevitable, IL members Of
the state central committee resigned,
and there vas also talk today before
the convention met that there would be
a bolt of the gold standard men at a
time when the action might be expect
ed to have an effect more or less spec
tacular. The convention is for the Sc
lection of presidential electors and for
the nominations of candidates for the
governorship and other state Offices.
Chairman David of the state central
committee. called the convention to or
der but made no speech. William Ken
needy of Naugatuck was designated as
temporary chairman. the announce
ment being received with tumultuous
cheering, which vas renewed when in
his speech he praised the Chicago plat
form and candidates. The temporary
officers were made permanent.
After Chairman Kennedy had been
handed the designations Of the state
committeeman. a delegate moved that
they be accepted with the thanks of
the convention" The motion was
adopted amid loud cheering, and other
marks Of approval.
The committee on resolutions not
being ready to report. the convention
took a recess until 2 p. m.
After recess the platform was re-
ported and adopted. 1t endorses the
platform adopted at Chicago by the
democratic national convention and
pledges earnest and faithful support
to Bryan and Sewall.

FUSION IN E YORK.

A ~" oiNA
Buffalo. N. Y, Sept. 16.-Fusion of
the populist and democratic parties in
New York state is the most important
result of a conference between repre-
sentatives Of the two parties. For ac-
tive support of the ticket to be named
by the democratic state convention,
the populists will be given five repre-
s%entatives upon the electoral ticket and
two congressman.
The conference today was not a
lengthy one as the matter had been
fully discussed previously, as reported
exclusively in the Associated Press.
The populists claim they can swing
the electoral vote of this state either
way, and assert hat their union with
the democracy will result in Bryan and
Sewall carrying New York state by a
large majority.
1t is said further that there would be
a further conference this afternoon.
John C. Sheehan. in speaking of the
subject. said that the populists have
misunderstood the outcome of the con-
ference. as it was not definitely decid-
ed that there would be fusion on the
terms specified. He. however. tacitly
admitted that fusion with the populists
was quite possible.
Elliott Danford. who was present at
the conference. says that the agree
ment would have to be referred to the
full state committee before it be-
comes effective, and that body may or
may not agree to the terms.

NEW YORK DEMOCRATS.
THE INFLUENCE OF SHEEHAN
AND HILL is FELT AL
THOUGH ABSENT.
An Effort is Being Made to Patch Up a
Fusion Between the Populists and
Democrats in Order to Save the
State Government to the Rotten
Tammany Ring.

Buffalo. N. Y. Sept. 16.-Though
they are absent in the body. the lead
erships of Senators Hill and Murphy
and w. F. Sheehan may be felt in the
democratic state convection today. Ru-
mors were current in the hotel Hobbies
early in the day hat all through the
night the wires had been carrying COM
munications between the senators and
others of the .old-time leaders on the
n hand and various other lieutenants
now in this city, the purpose being to
bring about a modification of the reso-
luton on the financial question, and on
endorsement of Bryan and Sewall.
In this connection it was a signifi-
cant fact that Tammany men who were
asked regarding the attitude of their
organization, professed the utmost ig-
oranc saying that that question was
to be decided at a meeting to be held
later in the day. 1t appears to be a
fact that two sets of resolutions have
been prepared with a view to their SUBJ
mission to the convention.
The one Elliot Danforth has in
charge is said to have the approval Of
Senator's Hill. Murphy and Chairman
Jones Of the democratic national COM
mittee. The latter. it is said, is willing
to accept a qualified endorsement Of
the Chicago conventions work, II
thereby. the nomination of a gold
standard democratic ticket can be
avoided.
Congressman Sulzer and others OF
the radical silverites, declare. however,
that there shall be no half-hearted en-
endorsement, and that the party must
be free from the domination Of those
who are designated as kickers: and the
assertion is further made that the state
organization will be made up i%ndepend-
ent of those who took part in the revolt
at Chicago.
1t was 1920 o'clock when Chairman
Hinckley raped the convention to or.
der and announced that the state COM
mittee had selected State Senator Thos.
F. Grady for temporary chairman. Mr..
Grady addressed the convention for a
period of about 20 minutes.
During the delivery of Mr.. Grady's
speech, members Of the Albany delega-
ton circulated a protest against the
nomination of John Boyd Thatcher. On
the ground that at the Saratoga con
vention he declared himself for the
gold standard and that no reaction Of
that avowal has since come from him.
Mr.. Grady's address was frequently ap-
plauded. particularly on his illusions
to those democrats who have taken the
ground against the Chicago nominees
and platform
The roll call which followed showed
contests in Albany, Monroe, Wayne
and Wyoming counties.
The announcement has been made
that Tammany will throw its influence
in favor Of John Boyd Thatcher's nom-
nation for governor. Kings county,
it is added, nay nam the candidate for
lieutenant governor II its delegates so
desire. Edward NJ. Grout. the regular
nominee for mayor of Brooklyn at the
last election. appeared to be the favol-
lite of the Kings county men for the
place. 1t remains a fact, however. that

THE SHAPE OF THE CUT-OUT
CHANGED.

Now that the woman of fashion,
when in her war paint and feathers,
does not invariably wear the off-shoul-
der evening gown she is showing how
tricky the square or pointed cut can
be. For instance, demure evening
bodice passes as cut pointed in front,
though apparently it was first off
shoulder. Then Q portion of the loose
puff was drawn up on the shoulder.
a front drapery was set from the belt,
to really high neck point, then it
was cut into two by slash that al
lowed the neck to be barred far below
the high-neck line. That the two ends
of the front drapery might not fall
down and back, they are caught by
narrow straps to the portion Of sleeve
puff drawn up on the shoulder. The
result was a bodice that allowed three
low cut points, the side points show
ing all the pretty part of the lower
shoulder usually exposed by the off
shoulder cut. Such a bodice, howev-
er, is suitable for a very informal din
ner or even an afternoon, gas-lit affair.
A handsome ball dress is shown to-
day, one whose skirt was made of
very pale rose pink satin ornamented
with three undulating rows Of fur.
Its fitted bodice had a square cut-out
