New Orleans, March 2s.-In furtheranee of what is believed will be one of the most important movements ever launched for the improvement of child labor condi- tions in the south, official representa- lives from 12 southern states will meet in New Orleans tomorrow afternoon for a conference to extend over a period of three days.
 The gathering occurs upon the invitation of Gov. J. Y. Sanders of Louisiana, who recently asked the governors of other states of the south to name delegates for a meeting here which would have for its object the adoption of more comprehensive and uniform system of child labor laws in the south, safeguard ing both the welfare of youthful laborers and the legitimate interests of the em- ployers.
 Those states which will be represented are Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Ten nessee, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, North ~aroina, Virginia, Kentucky and Louisiana.
 Tn addition to Governor Sanders, who will be called to preside over the meet kng, governors of two other states will be in attendance and make addresses. They are Governor fIadley of Missouri and Governor Noel of Mississippi.

AGREEMENT IS REACHED.
Difficulties Between Austria and Ser
 via May Be Settled.

Vienna, March 2S.-A complete agree ment has been reported by the powers with regard to the steps to be taken at Belgrade on the basis of the proposals made by Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign secretary, to Baron Von Aehren- thai, the Austro Hungarian minister of foreign affairs, for the settlement of the difficulty between Austria and Servia.
 The representatives of the powers at Belgrade tomorrow will advise Servia to make a declaration to the administration at Vienna, supplementary to the Servian note of March IA. In this note Servia referred Austria to her previous note to the powers dated March Il and in the latter note Servia, while withdrawing her demand for compensation and setting forth that she did not desire to provoke war, still maintained that the question of the annexation of Bosnia and Herze- govina should be regulated by the powers.
 In addition a complete agreement has been reached with respect to the abro- gation of Article 25 of the Berlin treaty and the suggestions of Austria on this subject will be communicated to the sig natories of the treaty.

FORECAST OF THE
 WEEK IN CONGRESS

Washington, March 2S.-The activities of Congress during the present week will be confined almost exclusively to the con- slderation of the tariff. The House will proceed with the consideration of the Payne bill in general debate, and the hours of daily sittings will be extended, the sessions beginning in the morning at 10 o'clock and ending at 10:9O at night.
 In the meantime the Senate will attempt no regular business beyond the introdac- ton of bills. The edict that no legisla- tion beyond the tariff and the bill provid- ed for the thirteenth census shall be un- dertaken, has gone forth. It is expected that the latter measure will receive early consideration.
 Opinions differ as to how long the dis cussion of the tariff bill by the House may continue, but the greatest lattudinals do not extend the time beyond the present week, and most members predict that the end will be reached by Wednesday.
 The House leaders are not quite assured of the advisability of permitting oppor- tunities to amend the bill, and it now seems probable that general debate will be continued until they can reach a surer footing on that point. Eighty-five mem bers have made known their desire to speak under the present order. Among those who will be heard this week are Representatives Ransdell of Texas Greggs of Georgia, Ollie James of Ken lucky and Burleson of Texas.
 The Senate, after the introduction of a number of bills tomorrow, will adjourn until Thursday.

LONDON HORSE SHOW.
Becomes AmerIcanIzed as Concerns
 Social Features.

London, March 2S.-The forthcoming London horse show at Olympia is being thoroughly Americanized. At one time British horse shows were of the horse horsey. They were redolent of the stable and almost the only visitors were clad in fustian or corduroys. A woman visitor unless she was a tweed-skirted heavy, booted amazon, was a rara avis. and as Tor visit to the horse show figurine prominently in one's social diarv-we,I it was unthinkable. Alfred Vanderbilt whc is. of course, the moving spirit of tba Olympia show, and his American friends nave changed all this. The social side of the show moves "cheek by jowr' with the utilitarian. Society women will flock to Olympia airing the latest creations of Worth, Paquin or Lucille and imma culate clad men will be in attendance. Even the poster of the show, which has been specially designed by the great French artist, Simon, at cost of s200o, will be found when on the boardings to emphasize the social side at the expense of the equine. It depicts tall, sylph-like wom- en- radiant in an old-gold directoire dress. Following with her eyes the direction in dicated by the riding switch of French cavalry officer. who is evidently pointing out to her some daring feat of jumping or the merits of some noble steed Thus without figuring in the poster the horse is suggested, while stress is laid upon the social attractiyeness of the show, as in America. Add to this Alfred Vanderblts double London-to- Brighton coach service and one may safely predict busy year for the young millionaire.

He called to his little girl, but she did not re- spond Russell came to the door and was shown bag of peanuts which Smith offered to give him. Unsuspectingly, the boy ran to his father, but the latter, in stead of giving the lad the peanuts, drew his revolver and fired a shot through the child's brain. Without pausng the man turned the weapon upon himself.

CLAIMS DAMAGE.
Discharged English Officer Sues For
 $375, ,0oO.

London. March 2s.-H. c. Woods, for mer lieutenant in the Grenadier Guards, who was removed from the army over year ago, after his refusal to resign when invited to do so, has thrown a bomb into army ranks by bringing suit against Sec retary Ialdane and other members of the army council. claiming $S75,0oo dam ages
 Woods claims that the council acted un- constitutionally as an act of parliament empowers the commander-in-ch alone to deprive an officer of his command. This case awakened much ill-feeling at the time The demand for Woods resig- nation was based on reports by his SUI perior officers alleging incapacity. Woods claimed that his studious tastes, his tem- perate habits and his refusal to subscribe toward a regimental coach made him un- popular and he produced excellent re- ports from other superior officers cover ing long term of years.
