 the People.

Baku, Sept 24-A conference of rep resentatives of the Armenians and Tar tars under the presidency of Prince Louis Napoleon, Governor General of the Caucasus has just been concluded during which the principal conditions of an entente were agreed upon.
 The conference decided to summon q general congress representing the in- habitants of the Caucasus to meet in October, for the purpose of considering the causes of the enmity existing be- tween the Tartars and the Armenians; resolved to urge upon the government the necessity for the adoption of prompt measures to ensure the safety of life and property, and arranged that Arme- nians and Tartars shall become mutu- ally responsible for all material dam age in the event of massacre or pillage by either side until January 1907. Ten Armenians and ten Mussulmans. all very wealthy, undertook to guarantee the strict observance of the agreement.

An Extremely Import Program is to He
 Discussed.
 Moscow. Sept. 24.--Cwing to the fact that there is no danger of police in- terference, the congress Of zemstvoists and municipal representatives which opens here tomorrow is attracting less attention than given to previous con gresses, but the program for discus sion is extremely important, as 1t em- braces criticism of the national assem- bly project which had not been an- nounced when the previous congress met and the formulation of a plan of campaign for the coming elections.
 Though the majority of the delegates are apparently willing to accept the assembly on. the present lines as an earnest of further reforms. strong minority will present some very sharp criticisms of the proyect. The depu- tation from Kostroma for instance has been instructed that the assembly answers neither the wishes nor the needs of the country and that cleo tions under the prevailing conditions without freedom of assembly or of the press are impossible. A resolution will be proposed pointing out to the gov ernment the imperative necessity of granting liberty of meeting and of the press immediately if the assembly Is to be truly representative. The sem timents of the people have been can vassed by the delegates. who will pre- sent them to the congress. which un- doubtedIy will act in accordance with them.

SITUATION NO BETTER.
Hungarsan Crisis Has not Lest Ttm
 serfoua Phase.


 Vienna, Sept. 2l.--Count Cziraty. who yesterday wa appointed by King Emperor Francis Joseph to negotiate with the leaders of the coalition par ties in the Hungarian diet. with view to the formation of q Hungarian cabt- net, had a conference with these lsad- CTS today lasting for an hour and a half.
 It is understood that the Count rec ceived from them a written declaration to the effect that they would be unable to assume the responsibility of gov ernment on the conditions imposed by his majesty as these conditions were directly in opposition to their person. al views. and also in opposition to the mandate of the people at the last election.
 Count Cziraky then left the confer ence to report to the King Emperor. promising to return with his maJesty's reply. After an audience of the King Emperor. Count Cziraky returned to the hotel and found that Count Julius Andrassy. Count Czichy. Baron Banffy and Francis Kossuth had departed for Buda Pest and that Count Albert Apponyi, the other representative of the coalition, had gone to join his family at Weidlingau This appareTit- ly brings the negotiations to close.
 It Is admitted here that the situation Is now worse than ever and Count Cztr- aky's mission Is considered hopeless.
 Considerable excitement prevails In political circles and the developments of the next few days are anxiously awaited.

tests between parties is regarded bv certain optimists as an evidence of a manly independence but 1t needs not the plaint of the mere pessimist to demonstrate that there Is certain dark side of the aspect of the great and progressive independent vote. This is the somber side of this brave show of manful Independence. It may easily be shown that with the increas- ing number of independent votes there has grown to be . larger and larger irresolute. Irresponsible. purchaseabls and corruptible vote. The little state of Delaware, since it fell into the hands of the buyers of elections. is now invariably credited with A large purchaseable vote which controls ah- solutely the balance of power.
 Delaware furnishes an illustration of what the condition is in many other communities in other states where the so-ealled independent vote is large and sedulously courted by campaign mana gers. It was not thus In the old days when partisans were most active and jealous of the good name of their par ty. Rather was the independent a creature unworthg of public prefer ment. much less party honor

This ift- formation will be contained in the am nual reports of the cabinet officers which have not been completed.
 Three Important Topics.
 Three topics highly important at this time to the American people will be discussed by the President In hts nes- sage. They are the Federal regulation and supervision of life insurance. the relations between this country and Venezuela and Americas interest in the fiscal affairs of Santo Domingo. Other important subjects naturally to be considered will be the scandals dis closed by the department of Justice in the beef trust cases; the regulation of railroad freight rates; the progress made in the construction of the Pmn~ anna Canal and the conclusion of peace between Russia and Japan.

MExICo's FOREIGN TRADE.
Statistics Show CountRy's Healthy Com. naereial Condition.


 merefaI Condition.
 Mexico City, Sept. 24.--Statistics of Mexicos foreign trade for the fiscal year ended June 30 show a healthy commercial condition. The imports were valued at ss5.ss1,oS1 gold, of which t4S,303,1s7 came from the United States, an increase of nearly $e,0oo,ooo over the preceding fiscal year.
 Great Britain sent goods to the value of $10,4ls,343, an increase of about s40o.00e. Germany contributed ss,si0,- 53s, which Is 8 slight increase, and France, ss,4s2.sS5, which Is gain of q, ,800, ,000.
 The gold exported amounted to s1s.- 696,146. gain of nearly S3,000,o00 over the preceding fiscal year. The total amount of silver exported (silver value) was s65,52s,s45, which Is a decrease of s1S,5s7044. The total silver value of all exports was $20s,520.451, or about $104, ,S00,000 gold value. This shows a very satisfactory condition, although a slight decrease from the preceding year.
 Gains in general merchandise ex- ports were heavy and almost served to prevent any loss in the general total.
 Trade with the United States is grow ing steadily and will increase from year to year, in the judgment of mer- cantfle and banking houses. The coun- try was never more prosperous and the outlook for the coming year Is a bright one.
 Miilers and others interested in the flour trade are hoping that the wheat situation will clear up soon. Under the present circumstances American wheat landed here costs more than na- tive wheat. It is expected that when the exact state of the American wheat crop Is known, 1t will be ascertained whether foreign wheat can be profit ably imported.
 Custom house collections for August were $a,537, 100, which is an excellent showing.

 The state council met in the after noon under the, presidency of the Prince Regent and decided to summon the riksdag.
 The newspapers discuss the result of the conference at Karlstad with ap- proval. The Svenska Dagbiadet says:
 Tt is to be hoped that the Karlstad convention will give us neighbors whose eyes will be opened by their newly won sovereignty and isolated position to the dangers threatening their national existence. When Nor way proves by her acts that her policy Is one with the only policy possible for the Scandinavian people. having regard to their future. great joy will reign in Sweden and September 2s will be writ ten in our history as a great national day"
 The Dagbad says:
 ''The thanks of the nation are due the whole government and not to its individual members"

BUTTE'S GREAT BLAZE
MILLION DOLLAR LOSS IN THE MON. .-.. TANA CITY.
Hard Work by Fire Department Pre- vented StilI Greater C0naagra-
 tion--rtve Blocks are . Totally Destroyed.

Butte, Mont, Sept 24.-Fire causing a loss estimated at S1 1,000.0 900 today con stunned the entire business portion of Butte lying between the ShodaiI Block and Renshaw Alley, on the south. side of West Park Street, and partially destroyed the public library.
 The fire call was turned in at $40 a. m. At noon the four-story Symone store was mass of flames and the pub lie library and other places were burn ing simultaneously. At o'clock Mayor McGinnity announced the fire was under control. Had the blaze once crossed Main Street into the other buildings on the north side of Park Street. or had 1t not been at the Rem shaw Block, 1t would have been much greater
 A cigar company occupied part of the ground floor and basement of the big Symous Dry Goods Company's building. At once the men realized that to keep the fire confined to the basement and away from the elevator shaft was the only hope of saving that block.
 The men could not enter the seat of the flames, but several went through the rear sidewalk windows and held the flames as close as they could to the origin of the fire. Finally. with fa- vorable change in the wind which kept the smoke back temporarily the fire-
  noor and poured the water in the di- rection of the elevator shaft. A per- feet geyser of sparks and burning shin- gles spouted across the roofs of other buildings. starting flames in the Rem shaw hall and in the Park building From Il o'clock until noon the SymonS building burned free as bonfire and the firemen confined their labors to saving adjacent property.
 The Minor, Broadway, Harvard, Ar- gyIe and other buildings were licked by the flames, but good work on the part of the owners and the firemen pre- vented what seemed for a time a gem eral conhagration.
 Some of the losses follow:
 Blocks totally destroyed: Maulee, York, Barrett, Woodworth, ogden.
 The following are among the estI- mated losses: Symons Store, Maulee and York blocks, owned by the New York Realty Company, S6OO.o00; Libra ry buiiding( $70.o00; walkover Shoe Company S1s,0oo; Ogden block. total loss; Atlantic saloon. SI1,O00
