MILITARY WILL BE IMPROVED.

Washington, June Ex-senator Hawley
from the committee on military affairs.
has reported his bill for the reorganiza-
ton of the militia. The bill is a recodi-
hcation of the laws relating to the militia
with such changes as are necessary to
adapt them to existing conditions. The
bill provides for two classes of militia.
organized and unorganized, the former
to be known as the national guard and
the latter as the reserve militia. 1t an
propriates 100000 annually for the pur-
chase of military stores and supplies. to
be issued to militia of various states. 1t
also permits the use of United States
forts by militia upon application of gov
errors of states, as camp grounds. and
authorizes the use of guns belonging to
any fort for purposes of drill by any
militia company.

PAN-AMERICAN CONGRESS.

IAN-A vi CONGRESS.
Washington, June 2-The project for
a Pan-American congress. which Secre-
tary Olney and Representative Smith of
Michigan are endeavoring to promote,
was given definite form today in a reso-
luton introduced in the house by Mr..
Smith. The resolution authorizes the
president, whenever in his Judgment it
may be opportune, TO notify the govern
ments Of the republics of Mexico. Brazil.
Central and South America, Hayti and
San Domingo to join the United States
in conference, to be held in Washing
ton, for the purpose of considering, in
relation to each government, such meas
ures as will provide for arbitration of
disputes between such governments and
methods to extend their commercial rela-
tons and to promote and insure the
security of the people of each of the
countries. An appropriation of $4,000
is proposed.
The president of Ecuador recently pro-
posed conference of this characte to
be held in the City of Mexico or Wash
ington.
Owing to the course of Mr.. Kew of
Nebraska in objecting to unanimous
consent for business, there is not much
probability, Mr.. Smith fears, that the
resolution can be adopted during this
session of congress, although it meets
with favor from all the members of the
house committee on foreign affairs.

ception WA. held in the parlors of the
GrOs,ein residence where Il few renre.
sentative citizens were invited. Mr..
Adams who was the spokesman of the
party first made many inquiries about
the progress in fruit growing, farming
and mining since his former visit six
years ago. The speaker had accurate
knowledge Of the country and the bus
mess affairs as they existed at the time
OF his former visit and noted the pro-
grcs> made with accuracy. lie asked
about the recent development in the
mountain mining camps and the pros
poet for future business relations with
the various districts.
