him to ever step into an auto again,

produced by the constant vibrations of
the machine as it passes over the
cobblestones of a city street. as In hilly
Pittsburg. Here 1t is necessary to pave
many of the streets with cobblestones
instead of asphalt.
Senator Flynn told his physician that

FOR THE CONTROL
Of WIRELESS.

BERLIN, Sept. so.-Delegates rep
resenting thirty-one Governments
will assemble here on October by in
vitation of the German Government
with the object of reaching a common
agreement for the exchange of mes
sages by the use of various wireless
telegraph systems and to define the
basis on which private wireless tele-
graph companies may operate with the
consent of Governments. The confer
ence is result of the Marconi Com
pany having refused to allow its sta
tions to do business with persons using
other than Marconi apparatus.
The. controversy began soon after
the Marconi Company, in 1901, set up
stations for public telegraph purposes.
The most important act in the contro-
versy was when the United States, in
1904, directed the Marconi Company
to remove it's apparatus from the
Nghtship Nantucket.
Germany will propose to the con-
ference that an international bureau
shall be established for the control of
wireless telegraphing; that each wire
less station must be connected with
the ordinary telegraphs by special
lines; that the conditions under which
wireless stations shall work with COM
panies that do not subscribe to the
conclusions of the conference shall be
laid down by the conference that Gov
ernments which do not adhere to the
convention may do so later; and that
when controversies arise over inter
probation or application of the con-
vention they shall be submitted to
arbitration.

Mr.. Roots progress was marked by
greater enthusiasm than was ever be-
fore prompted by the visit of any for

The reason why Mr. Root decided to
make the trip himself was that he
found strained feelings between the
United States and Latin American coun-
tries at the time lie became Secretary
of State. The general attitude of these
governments toward the United States
was one of polite suspicion
Secretary Root set himself to the
task of dispelling the idea that the
United States had territorial or other
than friendly ambitions toward the
countries of the western hemisphere
lie found that the suspicion which at
tached to the policies of the United
European powers. The explanation of
this was found to be the Monroe doc

pirations of European powers on this
side of the water, but that in return
for protection thus afforded would seek
TO exercise some sort of control over

diplomatic intrigue.
