TO STUDY EARTHQUAKES.
Leading Nations of the World Invited by
Kaiser to Meet in Conference.

Leading Nations of the World Invited by
Kaiser to Meet in Conference.
An international investigation Of
earthquakes will probably be the next
great inquiry jointly taken up by the
leading nations OF the world. EN-
peror William is taking the lead in
this movement, doubtless not desiring
to have the car of Russia suggest all
the propositions having tendency to
bring the civilized peoples closer to-
gether.
Germany has invited the United
States, all the European countries,
Mexico, Japan, Brazil, Argentine, and
Chill, to participate in a conference
fer the study of archaeological problems.
The invitation to this government was
given directly to the state department
by Count Won Quadt, German charge
d'affaires. He acted uader instructions
from Berlin. It is proposed to hold
the international conference some time
next spring.
All the countries invited to participate
are expected to send delegates. They
will naturally be scientists of high
standing and especially those whose
duties bring them in contact with the
general topic of earthquakes and dis
turbances of the earth's crust. No &C.
tion looking to the calling of the con
vention will be taken until consider
able number OF the nations requested
to send delegates has replied to the in
vitation sent by Germany.
Officials here are much interested in
the proposition advanced by the Ger
man government. It's Importance is
materially enhanced by reaction of the
recent eruption on the islands of Mar
Unique and st. Vincent. 1t is expected
this government will accept the invita-
tion, although no definite decision will
be reached until the return OF Secretary
Hay.
In the event of participation expert
scientists will be designated as dele
gates.
