DENTISTS IN SESSION.
Would Instruct School Children In
Regard to the Teeth.


Regard to the Teeth.
Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept. 5. - The
dentists OF Minnesota gathered in
state convention in Minneapolis yester-
da. transacted good deal of routine
business and then considered what the
uneducated would regard as very mag
unanimous proposition. President w. H.
Murray recommended a scheme whereby
children in the public schools should be
Instructed specially in regard to the care
Of the teeth and the general hygienic
condition Of the mouth. DR.. Murray had
talked with good many prominent edu-
Gators in regard to the matter, and had
received much encouragement. Supt G.
NJ. Jordan thought the idea might nrove
an excellent one. Mayor Gray, who had
welcomed the dentists, said he would do
what he could to bring the plan to the
Hcnt There was general discussion of
the subject.
The plan as outlines by Dr. Murray l.:
to appoint committee of dentists and
have them meet with a Ike committee
of the influential educators of the state
to discuss ways and means. His idea
of the method of instruction was to have
a line of study especially prepared, and
he thought the best plan would be to
teach by charts and pictures, thus re-
quiring the teacher to know some thing
and make her have a more Intelligent
idea Of the ailments Of the children. This
he thought a surer method than to have
sosne one go around to the schools and
talk once a month.
There are fully $50 dentists in attend
ance at the convention. The sessions are
being held in the Medical block. The
convention continues to-day and to-mor-
row.

Washington, Sept. 5. - A dispatch
from Minister Conger was received by
the state department yesterday. 1t was
chiefly interesting in being the first
word from him since his dispatch OF
about the 9th ult. referring to the pro-
posed parade Of troops through the
imperial palace in Peking. Like that
dispatch, this is dateless as to Peking.
The contents were not made public,
but it was stated that it contained
nothing materially changing the situa-
tion. The lack of date led to de-
termination to take energetic steps by
which all dispatches hereafter coming
to the state department from CHINA
will have the date clearly stated. Two
other dispatches received yesterday
from China referred to the state OF
health of the troops, which
Generally Satisfactory.
It cannot be learned that there has
been any marked advancement of the
negotiations between the powers
touching the withdrawal of the inter-
national forces from Peking. The
plain indication is that the powers are
acting upon the information conveyed
in the last note of the state depart
ment and are bringing all their IN
fluence to bear upon Russia to induce
her to change her mind as to with
drawing her troops For some reason
the authorities here appear to feel
growing confidence that this effort Will
be successful. It is noted as fact OF
great significance that the proposition
Is being advanced to have Prince
Ching return to Peking as the acting
head of the Chinese government. The
suggestion is made that the progress
of this wave of reorganization while
the international troops are still in
to provide
An Actual de FHgtO
Chinese government With Which the
/ nations may treat without furthe:
doubt as to it's strength, may solve
the present problem and put the CHI
nese question in a fair way to final
and satisfactory settlement. Much
may depend upon the attitude of Rus
sia IN this matter. and the manner in
which she treats this appeal from the
Chinese notables may prove to be a
test of the sincerity of her expressed
deal with the Chinese government as
SOON as possible. DR.. Fill, first assis-
tant secretary of state, returned to
Warrington yesterday and assumed
the duties of acting head of the state
department. relieving Mr.. Adee, who
has performed these duties during the
perp7exing diplomatic exchanges OF
recent date. DR.. Hill had been absent
in New England with Ihfs family on a
vacation.

London, Sept. 4.-The publication or
the text of the Russian proposals has
intensified rather than diminished the
suspicious entertained by England of
Russa's proceedings. The rupture OF
the European concert is considered an
accomplished fact Opinions differ,
however, as to the way in which the
powers will now group themselves:
Some papers think that Great Britain,
Japan and the Triple Alliance Will
stand together in refusing to leave Pe-
king. The Daily Telegraph, which ex-
presses regret that President Mckinley
has committed the United States to
follow in the Russian lead" considers,
however, that Japan, whose consistent
policy since the war Of 1894 has been

China" will throw her lot with Russia
and will be reluctantly followed by
France, who does not dare to risk d.
vergence with Russia. Events have,
therefore, conspired," says the Tele-
graph, Ito throw the balance OF d1plo-
matte power into Lord salisbury's
hands, for Austria Hungary and Italy
must side with Germany, who will
probably propose some compromise and
be supported by England"
The Times feels perfectly clear, 1t
says, that neither honor nor the inter-
ests of England will permit her to fol-
low Russia's example. 1t trusts that
Germany also will refuse to leave Pc
king and expresses the hope that the
report that the state department IN
Washington Disapp-Oves
the Russian suggestion may prove cor
. rect. Most of the morning papers ex-
press similar views and decline to be-
lieve in the sincerity Of Russia's prom
, ise to evacuate Manchuria. There Is
no confirmation of the report that the
Chinese attacked the allies at Kang

Maintained by the Omcials mt Wash

Washington, Sept. 4. - So far as it
could be ascertained there were no i'm
portant developments in the Chinese
situation here last night. The officials
maintain unusual reticence. They say
they have no information to make
public regarding the Russo-American
propositions regarding the withdrawal
Of the military forces Of the powers
from Peking. Mr.. Adee, the acting Sec
retary Of state, has decided for the
present not to make any statement as
to the names of the powers who have
answered or to indicate whether the
replies are of an affirmative or negative
character, on the ground that publica-
tion Of the attitude Of the powers might
interfere with the negotiations at this
period. 1t is therefore impossible to
learn to what extent
Answers Have Been Received.
The opinion prevails, however, that
none of conclusive character has as
yet come to hand, such communications
as have been received being merely of
preliminary character. In diplomatic
circles the opinion prevails that none of
the great powers have as yet reached
q final determination as to the course
they will pursue. No cables from China
were given to the press by any Of the
departments yesterday. Acting Secre-
tary Adee was at the state department
during the day, but he said that no
kilograms Of Importance had been re-
ceived. The interruption of communi-
cation with Peking is presumably ac-
countable in part for this, as some days
have now elapsed since any word was
