KENTUCKY DEMOCRATS.
Mr.. Berry Thinks Bryan Should Keep
Out of the State.

Representative Berry of Kentucky thinks
it would not be wise for w. J. Bryan to
take the stump in Kentucky for Goebel.
Speaking of .the, situation with respect to
the governorship quarrel among the demo-
Gratis, Mr.. Berry said to a Star reporter:
There is an immense amount of discon-
tent and confusion in the state over the
governorship. Much bitterness is express
ed by the anti Goebel people on account of
the manner of Goebels nomination, and
it is expected that new ticket will be
nominated by democrats in opposition to
Goebel. / do not think that Bryan should
come into the state and get mixed up in
the fight l think that, for his own good,
he should keep out of the local dispute. AS
it stands now the whole state is for him,
but If he should come there and get mixed
up in the fractional fight it might be re-
sented and public feeling might change"

speetive governments the series of con-
ventions and declarations appended:
Convention for the pacific settlement of
international disputes.
Convention concerning the laws and Gus
toms of war on land.
Convention for the adoption of laws
against the use of asphyXiating OF deleteri-
Gus gases from balloon projectiles, and for
the prohibition of the use of bullets that
easily expand in the human body
The general act contains five express
slons of opinion, follows:
The conference considers that limita-
lions OF the military charges which at pres
ent Cypress the world are greatly to be de-
sired for the increase of the material and
moral welfare of mankind
Rights of NeutraIs.
1.-The conference expresses the opinion
that the question of the rights and duties
of neutrals should be inscribed on the pro-
gram of conference to be held at an early
date.
The conference expresses the opinion
that questions relative to the type and
caliber of rifles and naval artillery as ex-
amined by it, should be the subject of study
by the different governments with view
TO arriving at uniform solution by flu
ture conference.
THE conference expresses the wish that
an early convention be called to revise the
Geneva convention.
THE conference has resolved that ques-
lions relating to the inViolability of pri-
vate property in war on land, and the bonn
parchment of towns or villages in naval
war. be reserved for future conferences"
The convention is signed by all the plen-
airy delegates.
The delegates decided that not only the
three conventions, but the three decIara-
tons must be separately signed.
The American delegates asked that the
word duty in article q be fully defined,
so that the word may in no case imply any
obligation on the part of the United States
to interfere in European affairs, and vice
versa.
The discussion among the French dele
gates, who framed the article, and the
Americans lasted several hours. Efforts
are now being made to find a suitable
word to substitute for duty which will
meet the wishes of the American delegates
witout weakening the purport of the ar
ticle.
Ambassador Whites Views.
The New York Worlds correspondent at
the peace conference sends the following
interview with Ambassador White, the
president of the American delegation:
Il consider that the results of the con-
ference are better than many dared to hope
for at the beginning.
The arbitration plan is not only good in
itself, but 1t lays the foundation for fur
Their results in the cause of peace which
1t will be the duty of future conferences &c
| develop.
Il believe the limitation of armaments
| it is necessary that the principle of arbi-
| tration should be accepted first.

The Porto Rico RAILWAY.

Edward Lauterbach and Charles c. Bee
man of New York were at the Department
Of Justice yesterday. and had conference
with Attorney General Griggs in regard to
the status of the Porto Rico railroad. This
road was constructed under an agreement
with the Spanish government. which guar
anteed dividend of per cent on the cost
of the road on basis of $4,000 a mile for
construction. One hundred and thirty-two
miles of the road have been construc ted
leaving fifty-five miles Yet to be built The
Attorney General expressed the opinion that
the Secretary of War the head of the
military government of Porto Rico had no
authority TO pay the guarantee assumed by
Spain, or to take any action which could in
any way bind this government beyond the
time OF military occupation. The conclu-
sion was reached that Congress alone has
authority to act in the premises.

which has existed among the heads of the
various naval bureaus concerning the build

der, to be known as special order No. "a,

present system. The matter has aroused
considerable feeling among naval officers,
and the board of construction has divided
into majority and minority elements, each
presenting reports as to what should be
done. The main point has been the extent
OF authority and responsibility of the chief
constructor. and the desirability of having
his bureau pass upon the proposals of all
other bureaus in the building, arming and
