NO IDEA OF INTERVENTION

Washington. January 15.-There has
been no change in the policy of the
United States in regard to Mexico.
This was the substance Of replies
made to-day by Secretary Bryan to
several members OF the diplomatic
corps who called at tho State Depart
ment. Tho foreign representatives,
noting tho depressing effect upon Mex
lean bonds held by citizens of their
countries. through the default In the
semiannual interest payments, had in
puired as to what action, II any. the
United states would take, in Wow of
the now conditions.
Tho secrctary's callers inferred that
this collapse Of Mexican credit abroad
had been fully expected by the admin

the House OF Representatives to-day,
whom Representative Gillett RepublI-

we had n right to expect from him

regarding interference with tho mails
reported that the evidence failed to

The report attributed much OF the
violence and bloodshed in West Vir-

hired by mine owners. and recommend
ed passage OF a bill Senator MARITIME
prohibiting the employment of an
armed police by private organizations
Regarding the employment of i'm

tho fact was plainly brought out that
, labor was hired by agents OF the mine
owners in the great cities of our coun-
try; that the said agents did not tell
the men so hired the whole truth of
the situation at the place OF destina-
ton; these men were unable to speak
or understand our language; the bur
den Of testimony tended only TO prove
that the transportation of these men
was a serious reflection on our boasted
civilization.
God has blessed West Virginia with
proiligate hand. Here, above all sec
tons, should peace, plenty and happi-
ness reign upreme on the con-
trary, your committee found disorder.

stead.
I'm no spirit OF malice or hatred. but
with view that the country. through
knowledge OF true conditions. may
right the wrong, / charge that the
hiring of armed bodies of men by pri-
vate mine owners and other corpora
tons and the use of steel arinored
trains, machine guns and bloodhounds
on defenseleSs men, women and chill
dren is but little way removed from
barbarism.
"A millionaire owner or n great sec
ton OF West Virginia calmly admitted
on the witncss stand that so long as
he got his portion OF royalty he never
inquired further Coal, under our civil
lization, is a necessity. At the risk
of criticism by my friends and coun-
trymen.. / unhesitatingly say that gov

a hundred women had loved him and
he never had loved but one.
Nine. Jumel took the death OF Burr
almost with relief. Within n few months
shes was the same enchanting adven-

Once more she was supremacy indiffer-

her gifts, magnificent in her entertain

the leading spirit in carnival Of flow
ers such as New York had never seen

Identification OF the grounds about the
Jumel mansion. She had no desire to

In 1852 she made another visit to
Paris. Louis Napoleon was at the height
Of his glory. He gave grand ball in
her honor. She was taken into the ball
room on the arm Of Jerome Bonaparte.
A thousand courtesies were shown to
her during her visit. Louis Napoleon
could not do too much for the woman
who had befriended him when he was
a penniless adventurer In the streets of
New York.

Louis Napoleon made Nine. Jumel

were announced as II they were coming

attendants numbering nifty or more per-

she became the more she thought OF
