government. This was made two days
ago. and the reply was made yesterday in
the affirmative. No other correspondence
is necessary in the matter. If France is
still of the same mind she will appoint the
new ambassador and publish the appoint
ment in the Official Gazette of France,
which will be the notification to the diplo-
matte world as well as the official notitica-
tion to all governments of the change.
Regret at Loss of NJ. Cambon.
Nothing is known here of what DISPOSE
tion the French government is to make of
NJ. Jules Cambon. 1t is known that for
social and personal reasons M. Jules Cam
bon has for some time desired to be
transferred to Berlin. AS very little if
anything is known here of the man slated
to succeed him in the United States the
discussion of the change is confined to eX-
pressions of regret at the loss of NJ. Cam
bon, and to wishes that he may succeed in
his desires to go to Berlin.
NJ. Jules Cambon has represented the
French government in Washington since
January 10. 1893. He is now in Europe,
having left Washington some months ago
on leave of absence. With him as ambas-
sador France now stands second in point of
precedence Herr Won Holieben, the German
ambassador, having stepped to the position
of dean of the corps upon the death of
Lord Pauncefote.
The Rochambeau Statue.
NJ. Cambon's tenure of the post of am
bassador has been unmarked by any com
plications between this country and France
The relations between the two republics
were rendered even more cordial by his
tactful efforts. The crownng success of
his work in Washington and the last event
Of diplomatic Importance with which he
was connected before his departure fo-
France was the uuveilng of the Rocham-
beau statue This was an event of inter
national import, which proved fitting
climax to NJ. Cambon's career His ad-
dress on that occasion in response to that
of President Roosevelt was most favoraoly
received.
Socially the French embassy has been
of the gayest of foreign establishments in
Washington during M. Cambons residence
here. His entertainments have always been
lavish and successful.
Although Madame Cambon came to the
United States only last year, she made
such a delightful impression on Washing
ton and diplomatic society that her depar-
ture is felt only slightly less than that OF
NJ. Cambon himself

SIR ROBERT BOND COMING.
Has Full Powers to Reopen Bond
Blaine Convention

LONDON. August 22.-Sir Robert Bond,
the premier and colonial secretary of New
foundland, sailed from Liverpool yesterday
for Montreal on the Allan line steamer
Pretorian on his way to Washington with
full powers from the imperial government
to reopen the negotiations through the
British charge d'affaires for the ratification
of the Bond-Blaine convention.
The Bond blaine convention was a spe-
cial agreement entered into about ten years
ago between the late James G.. Blaine, then
Secretary of State, and the premier of New
fOund.and.
The convention on the part of New
f0Undland granted to United States fisher
men considerable privileges in regard 10
purchasing bait, and largely reduced the
duties on a considerable class of American
imports into Newfoundland. The United
States, on its side. opened its markets to
Newfoundland fish and raw products ana
confirmed the privilege of transportation Cf
fresh fish in bond to the United States
markets,
The Newfoundland premier has declared
himself in favor of free trade with the
United States against a union of the
colony with the dominion of Canada. His
success in obtaining imperial sanction for
his present American visit is the culmina-
ton of several years of persistent effort,
and only this week was he able to convince
the government of the injustice done TO
Newfoundland by the non-ratification of
the convention and secure it's consent to
the resumption of the reciprocity negOtta
tions.
The premier will lose no time in getting
to work, and the British charge d'affaires
will communicate with the State Depart
ment shortly after his arrival in America.

Special to The State.

ing the Charleston meeting of
1900, when the National Educa-
tirnal association helped to at,
tract the teachers of the State, no
meeting of the State Colored
Teachers ASSOCIATION has ever
been so largely attended by
teachers as that at Lancaster,
Sept. 9-l0, and from financial
view it is the best of them all,
Notwithstanding the fact that
Lancaster is the most inaccess-
ible place in which the associa.
ton has ever met To Prof. Lee
and to the increased interest IN
educational matters this result
should be credited.
Some of the speakers could
not attend, but such as did pres
ented able and practical papers.
Those of Prof. Howard of Geor-
getown on "Industrial Education"
and of Prof. Crockett of Rock
Hill on "The Defects of the Com
mon schools and how to Remedy
them," attracted considerable
notice and excited some discuss
ion. The teachers present seem
ed unit upon the Importance of
industrial education.
Prof. Crockstt's paper and the
discussion upon it urged among
other things that teachers remain
in locality long enough TO get
the confidence of all concerned,
then use their influence to better
general condition, especially to
increase the attendance and to ex
tend the sessions by means of
self help.
President Wallace's address
was an able appeal to teachers to
prepare themselves better along
all lines for more efficient service.
He also expressed an unwilling
ness to stand for reelection. 1t was
expressed as the sense of the body
that the address be printed.

Platt On The Trusts.
Connecticut Senator Explains The
Difference Between the Par
ties.

Hartford, Conn. :, Sept. 16 The
Republican State convention as
sembled in the auditorium tonight
to transact the business prelimi~
nary to the more important pro-
gramme of tomorrow; which calls
for the nomination of candidates
for the higher State offices.
An important feature of the
session was a resolution offered by
State Senator Knealy endorsing
President Roosevelt for the presi
Dental nomination in 1904. The
resolution was referred to the
committee on resolutions.
Senator o. II. Platt as tempo
rary chairman of the convention
made an address on the subject of
trust. He said: "The Democratic
party proposes to destroy trusts
and the business conducted by
them; the Republican party pro-
posea to regulate trusts and the
business conducted by them, so
that no unfair advantage shall be
taken Of the people of the United
States and to the full limit of its
constitutional power it will carry
out this policy.
"We deny that the tariff is the
neither of trust, we affirm that
the tariff Is parent of prosperity :"
Hand 'in hand with the policy
of protection, he said, was the
policy of reciprocity.
The convention after transact
ing routinei eibusiness adjourned un-
til morning.
