the Moorish delegation put forward at the ses-
sion of the conference Saturday IL. accord
ing to the French and British delegates. a loose
ly drafted mixture OF the German and French
proposals.. following chiefly the German lines.
The British and French delegates hint that the
scheme was inspired by GERMANY. and that its
object is TO indicate the concessions which Ger
many is prepared TO make.
The committee. which is considering the three
bank projects, has instructions to endeavor to
agree on definite draft of the proposals and to
submit il to the full conference at the earliest
date possible. pessimistic view is held among
the French and British delegations concerning
the likelihood of an agreement being reached on
the final draft They foresee the proba bity of
the conference leaving the bank question I'M
settled and proceeding to the discussion OF the
police problem. which. they believe, cannot be
solved unless the neutral powers make efforts
at Berlin and Paris. They predict that the con-
ference will last another fortnight and that the
delegates will separate after having embodied

TO the legislature a bill amending the city char
ter to strike out the following clause:
The provisions of this section shall not apply
to authors Of school books used in any of the
public schools because of any interest they may
have, as authors, in such books
Nearly all of the leading school teachers have
written more school books. and the
Board of Superintendents. which chooses the
books used in the local schools. have picked out
those best fitted for the schools regardless OF the
authors City Superintendent Maxwell says
that he is glad 70 have his teachers and super
intendents write books and believes that their
