“The trouble is that the militia in this

not a single regiment or battalion in the

regimental formation. When they do

That's how the South Carolina contingent

it could not be shut off, and in a short time
tbe ground for a square around the well was
flooded several inches. Drillers say it is the
biggest well they ever struck. They esti :
mate the flow at 1,000 barrels a day. Fears
are entertained that the flooded ground will

Why Be Peort French.
Well informed Germans assure me that
Count Herbert Bismarck bad not toe slight-
act Intention of impressing too English
speaking members of the Oonfereuoe with a
mm of too greatness of Germany at toe eg-
tification of their right to use their own
language, with which he might not be
equally familiar, at some future conferenoe.
Nor is it true that the two American mem¬
bers of the conferenoe were entirely igno¬
rant of that language. Mr. Phelps spoke
that language in diplomatic Intercourse at
the Austrian court, and Mr. Bates himself
assured me tout he understood almost every
word the oount uttered on that memorable
occasion.
Kurland Leans Toward Germany,
While it is well known that England's
leanings in the conference are toward Ger¬
many on that vexed question of secret un¬
derstanding concerning Tonga, Sir Edward
maintained an obstinate silence. He ex¬
pressed himself, however, in a very kindly
manner regarding the favorable impressed!
produced upon himself and others at toe
conference by thfir American colleagues.
Sir Edward, and there fa no flbtter judge in
mob matters, fa Inclined to think tost
another month will sqetbe labor of toe con¬
ference ended. Be had met Mr. Kasson be¬
fore, at the Congo conference, when both of
them were representing their respective
countries.
It May Take Six Sittings.
In Sir Edward’s library there lies on •
spider table near the windows large folio
of volumes containing, in all the glory of
gilt edges and magnificent printing, toe
minutes of tbe Congo oonferenoa. When
your representative often asked Sir Edward
about how toe Samoan conferenoe
would sit he turned to this book, and after
consulting it said he believed that now, as
at toe Congo conference, all matters of de¬
tail would be referred to a sub-committee.
Tbe Congo conference, he remarked, sat
only ten tones daring those three months.
Fits or six sittings, therefore, will, in all
probability, suffice to settle the Samoan
matter. 1
The Emperer Regret* Oar Iron Bale.

toe kaiser was graciously pleased to express
Us regret nt toe iron rule that inaists on that

of Imperial guest*, attired one and all in uni¬
forms of every hue of toe rainbow, tbe
American representatives attracted general
notice by the republican simplicity of their

of a diplomatic uniform in the American
