Balfour, first lord of the treasury, and Lord
George Hamilton, secretary of state for
India The conference, which lasted an
hour was preliminary to the carrying on
of further negotiations on the subject of
international bimetallism. The Americans

can commissioners and was informed that
they stand authorized to make arrange
ments for the holding of an international
conference or TO negotiate a treaty of in
ternational bimetallism which they might
submit to their government for ratification.
1t was stated also that France was ready

SORT OF DEBS PLACE.
Colony i'm Pennsylvania where No
Money ~ Used in Some Exchanges.

Reading (Pa.) Letter in New York sun.
A labor colony, such as Labor Leader
DebS outlines, has just been established
on q small scale up the Reading Railroad
at Kepner Station. The farm of three hun
dred acres is in East Brunswick township,
SChuylkiLI county on high ground. 1t was
chartered as the Brunswick Valley Colony
of the East Pennsylvania Branch, No. 23O.
of the Labor Exchange. one hundred acres
of the farm are woodland. They have got
good water and an excellent, Well-drained
spot. Those in charge say that they are
already negotiating for two manufactorles
to be established on the land. About tWen-
ty people, including married men and Wom-
en-, are already in the colony. The men are
building small houses. They have fourteen
workers to provide for They have ware
house containing zoo bushels of potatoes, 50
bushels of wheat, 20 of rye loo OF corn, %
of oats, Is tons of hay, 10 of straW-au sub
ject to labor checks. Each man gets pay
for his work on the farm in the shape Of
labor checks. These checks are cashed in
products on hand in the warehouse. Iney
also have in stock so chickens, 200 chicks,
u mich cows, milk and cream, canned
fruits and berries. They want fifty more
No money is paid for labor. Pay checks
are paid in produce. Those receiving the
produce can do what they please with 1t,
exchange ii for clothing or anything they
need. One dollar membership dues IS re-
quired from each one joining the colony.
Recruits also must obligate themselves to
pay 500 either in cash or labor checks be-
fore 1901 to the colony for the payment OF
the farm. All members are governed by a
constitution ana Dy-iaWS4 Members WlSLlHS
to build will have a lot 50x10O feet, not to
be sold to any one not a member of the
colony. Each member will be subject to
orders from the superintendent as to what
special labor lie is to do. Each member can
work at his trade or do some part OF the
farm work, to be employed all the year
round, ten hours day. Women for dairy
and field work also get 10 cents an hour
Indoor industrial operations will soon be
started. general invitation to join is eX-
tended to all sober, able-bodied, healthy
men and women of gooF character who can
come well recommended No ntoxicants are
allowed on the farm. c. A. Burrows is pres
ident and manager. He is now going around
this region lecturing on the labor colony, il
Illustrating his remarks with photographs,
maps charts, and specimens of the re-
sources of the colony. He told the Sun cor
respondent they want at once thirty wood,
iron and stone workers with enough money
between them to buy a portable sawmiil
to cut down the 100 acres of very fine tim
Der on the farm for houses for the colony.
He says the colony is bound to succeed,
and that many other such labor colonies
will be started soon in the East so that
it will not be necessary for Eastern labor
to go as far West as Debs suggests. The
Washington state colony will be for far
Western men.

French Ministry Threatened.

PARIS, July 12.-The government had a
narrow escape from defeat in the Chamber
of Deputies to-day. The ministers desired
to postpone until autumn the discussion of
the bill for the readjustment of the direct
taxes, the passage of which would chiefly
benefit the peasantry The opposition led
by NJ Millerand Socialist urged the i'm
mediate discussion of the measure. In the
first division the government was defeated
by vote Of 270 to 245., M. Cookery min
lister of finance, made a clever reply to M.
Mlllerand and his supporters, saying that
THIS vote implied preference on the part
of the Socialists for the existing system
A scene of wild confusion ensued the So
shaking their fists. Another division was
finally taken, and M. Millerand's mo-
ton for the immediate discussion of the
bill was lost by vote of 270 to ISL The
trouble was largely due to the detection of
a section of the Rightists. Should this oc-
cur again tomorrow, when the usual bill,
renewing the direct taxes, is introduced,
another critical diK sion is possible. The
downfall of the ministry on the eve of Pres
ident Faure'S visit to st. Petersburg would
be most unfortunate.
Emile Arton, who was convicted of brib-
cry in connection with the Panama canal
scandals, before the Panama canal COM
mission to-day made sensational revelations
regarding the way in which successive
governments had connived at his escape
and silence. He sai1 the Boulangists
offered him a million francs for docu-
ment the making public of which would
have resulted in the overthrow of the
LOubet ministry. M. LOubet, he said, had
also tried to obtain certain documents from

SHORTHAND SPRINTERS.
Chicago People Seem to Hold All
World Records.

New York Press.
Can shorthand notes be written at the
rate of five and One-f1fth words a second
and yet be good, clean, readable, accurate
copy? Chicago snaps its fingers at Eastern
records and says we are slow. Some time
ago the Chicago Tribune published a state
ment to the effect that MIR. Dement,, of
that city, had written from dictation 402
words a minute AT this several Eastern
about the mendacity of Chicago people. 1t
was asserted that it was impossible to even
read 400 words a minute, so that 1t could be
understood to say nothing of the impossi-
bility of taking that number of words down
in shorthand in the given time. 1t was
stated that 250 words a minute was the
limit of Ineligible writing. That does all
very we'll for the effete East, SAID Chicago,
but we move faster out here. To settle the
question Mr. Dement, and his wife were
asked to make a test case in the office of
the Chicago Tribune under conditions which
could not be aSSalled Mrs Dement, was 10
do the debating and Mr.. Dement, to do
the writing. No opportunity was given
them TO become familiar with the copy
cript of the examination of witness in
lawsuit Some of the words in the copy
were blurred and indiStinct, which caused
Mrs Dement, to hesitate and thus delay her
husband in his writing. Nevertheless Mr..
Dement, dashed off 312 words, plainly writ
ten, in the minute of time given him and
demonstrated to the satisfaction of the
judges that under favorable circumstances
he could write shorthand at the rate Of 400
words a minute. In writing the 3l2 words
Mr.. Dement, took shorthand notes at the
rate of five and one-fifth words a second,
and there seems to be the best testimony
that he did it. The stumbling of the reader
when she came to the blurred words in the
copy delayed him nearly five seconds, for
he lost the sense of the matter and had to
have the words read over to him. This
was equal to a loss of twenty-six words,
which might have been avoided but for
poor copy and would bring his total up to
33S words.

Battle Ships for Hawaii.

CHICAGO, July IA special dispatch
from Washington TO the Times Herald
says: The administration has taken steps
to keep its grip on Haawii Amy aggl8s-
sve interference on the part of Japan will
result in the landing of marines and the
roisting of the American flag with or with

ton treaty.
The administration realizing that some
crisis might arise while the treaty still
hangs fire in the Senate, has taken steps
to be prepared for any emergency. Rear
Admiral Beardslee will have, when the next
steamer arrives in Honolulu, instructions
giving him power 10 act at the first sign of
aggression ON the part OF Japan or trouble
OF any kind with which the local authori-
ties are not able 10 cope Rear Admiral
Beardslee will be given sufficient force to

prepared for the voyage. THIS VIII give

The Microscope.
The gray-matter brain cells of perception
have been dissected out of the finger tips
of the blind. Standing point up beneath all
the ridges so plainly seen with a magnify
ing glass on the skin of the inside of the
finger ends are the so-called corpuscIes of
Pacini which are arranged in the exact
sembance of the keys of a piano, and are
said by Meissner to crepitate and give forth
a different sound in every age of each per-
son. The Pacinian corpuscIe, which con-
tains within it's lining membranes a nerve
trunk, an artery and vein, lines all the
tactile surfaces of the body, particularly
the inner finger and thumb tips
A medical man recently assisted in an
autopsy on a person blind from birth, and
he sought to discover by scalpel and micro
scope the secret of the extraordinarily deli
cate touch the blind man had acquired
during life. Sections perhaps sixteenth
of an inch thick, were carefully sliced off
the inner surfaces of the index and middle
fingers of the right hand Under high
power these showed instead of a single
nerve trunk and artery and vein of the
average man, a most complex and delicate
ramitication of nerve filaments, dainty and
minute nerve twigs in immense number
branching from the main stem, Through
constant use the finger tips of the blind
acquire this unusual development, with
more and more perfect performance OF
function.
