TEMPORARY RAISE
Of WAGES LIKELY
TO AVERT STRIKE
Railway Managers And En-
ployes Are Still in
Conference.

Another conference between the
managers and employees Of the South
eastern railroads is in progress today
at the Southern building. While the
conference is still in session and moth
ing can be learned as to what is taking
place, the fact that the matter is still
under consideration fs said to indicate
that an agreement is possible.
1t was believed that the conference
held Wednesday would be the last, as
the employees were to return their de-
eision at that meeting on the proposi-
tion to arbitrate, made by the mana
gers.
1t is rumored that an agreement may
be reached by a small increase in the
wages OF the trainmen and conductors,
and promise on the part Of the mana
gers to increase the wages again later
on. Both sides seem desirous of avoid
ing a strike, and some such arrange
ment as this is doubtless under consid-
Grafton. No official statement on this
point has been made, however, by eth
er side.
Because neither side is willing 70
give out any definite statement about
the progress being made, several ru-
mors are a6oat, none Of which has
much foundation. The fact of the
matter seems to be that there has

WOMAN SEEKS AID
OF FRENCH EMBASSY
Believed To Be Demented and Is
Held For Obser-
vation.

An elderly woman, who described her
self as Ursula Verhegleweghan, a. sub
ject of France, called at the French
embassy this morning and asked for
protection against persons. who, she
claimed, were trying to obtain possess
sion of property owned by her in New
Orleans.
For some reason, she was sent to the
Belgian legation, where she was re-
ferred to Police Headquarters. Acting
Sanitary officer Lynn. after talking
with the woman, decided she was suf-
fering from some mental trouble, and
she was sent to the Washington Asylum
Hospital for observation,
According to the woman's story. she
was sent to Jail for five months because
she had endeavored to protect her prop
erty. She also says she spent nearly
six years In an asylum at jackson, La.
She gave her occupation as that OF a
cook, and said her only relative was a
son, who went to Alaska nine years ago.
Mrs. Verhegleweghan came to Wash
ington two days ago for the purpose of
having her interests looked after by the
French embassy, and had been stopping
at the Harris Hotel. She had s3 In her

New orleans authorities of her deten-

SILVER In TREASURY
REACHES LOW MARK
Bankers of Eastern Cities Demand
Certificates Of ST, So, and
SIS Denominations.

Demands of bankers from Eastern
cities for more silver certificates of the
81, 81. and Sc denominations temporarily
embarrassed the Treasury today. The
amount of free silver" against which
such certificates may be issued, fell to
1892, ,9S1, the lowest mark in a long time.
This represents the total amount of
silver in the Treasury against which
certificates in addition to those in cir
culation, may be issued. I'D.
Beginning today an attempt will be
made by treasury officials to hasten
len behind on account of the vacation
season, and also of the demands that
have been made on the Treasury lately.
There is now In the Treasury $15. 900, 900
of bad currency" which is awaiting
redemption.

SPRING.

'Tis spring in the garden
Look-look how It's spring!
l see its light blazon,
| hear its bells ring
The pageant of life and of bloom has
begun,
In ev'ry clear color beneath the glad
sun.
The daffodils led it
With beacons of fire;
The early magnolias
None straighter or higher
Each raised to the beat of the spring,
and its burn
In votive oblation, an amathyst urn.
Oh, daintiest dream
That a cherub could conceive!
BY what fairy gleam
Did the Myrtle trees weave
Those billows Of crepe, softly crinkled
and drawn,
In which they are masking as clouds
of the dawn?
The supple Ygelias
Have threaded their sprays
With rose colored bells
Hear the chime as it plays!
Oh, hear it, the faintest of scales, as it
trips,
Like ripple of joy from girls
pinker lips.
The wilding Wistaria -
Orient guest
Not yet in his summer green
Being full drest;
Yet over his duskiness heavily drapes
Long blossoms, as luscious as clusters
Of grapes.
Spring-spring! BY the stars
Where the Jessamines shine,
BY the signaling blare
From the Trumpeter's vine,
By the message of bird and of pale
butterfly,
Bv the thrill in the earth and the ali
and the sky!
sprfng here in the garden!
Most wondrous OF all,
You, like a Narcissus,
Grown suddenly tall;
ITnfolded to womanhood, fragrant ant
air,
The fire of a wonderful spring In you
hair.
All, dear, it is spring!
II is spring in your eyes;
It is spring in your heart
Where new blossoms arise.
what rose will the summer bring
Sweet, who can say?
For the roses of June are but budde
In May.
