THE CONGRESS ASSURED.
PERU APPOINTS DELEGATES TO THE
PAN-AMERICAN CONFERENCE.

Washington. Sept. 3-AT1 doubt concerning
the holding of an international conference of
American States in the City of Mexico was re-
moved to-day when the announcement was
made that Peru had appointed three of her
most eminent delegates to the confer
ence This news received with qualification
at the State Department. which has believed
that much good will come from such confer
ence. and did all 1T could to bring about har-
mony on the programme. and to unite all the
southern countries in support of the confer
ence.
At one time the conference was I'm jeopardy
owing to the fact that Peru and perhaps other
countries desired to have the conference con-
slider arbitration of certain pending boundary
disputes, while Chill wished the conference to
keep hands off pending troubles between her
self and Peru and Bolivia.
Chill some time ago appointed delegates as a
result OF satisfactory assurances that were not
well received by Peru. However. Peru has now
acquiesced in the programme arranged. and. ac-
cording to advices sent to the State Depart
ment by Minister Dudley. and confirmed by
Sefor Calderon. the Peruvian Minister TO the
United States has named Sehor AlzamOra. Vice
President of the Peruvian Republic; Minister
Calderon and Sehor Elmore Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of Peru. as her delegates Two
secretaries and two attaches also were named.
