Far-Reaching Effect in Europe of the Czar’s Peace Proposal. The official Berlin Nord Deutsch Alige- meine Zeitung, believed to be inspired by Prince von Hohenlohe, the imperial chan- cellor,declares the willingness of Emperor William and Germany to accept the invita- tion to attend the congress as proposed by the Russian emperor. ‘The London Daily Graphic says that Lord Salisbury, in 1888, communicated to Em- peror William a memorandum showing the tremendous cost of armed Europe. Em- peror Wiiliam was so impressed that he privately intimated his intention to sum- mon a disarmament congress. The semi- official German press ventilated the idea with the result that so much animosity was revealed on the part of France that the kaiser abandoned the project. The St. Petersburg correspondent of the London Times says: “Count Muravieff, the Russian foreign minister, declares that the idea originated entirely with Emperor Nicholas. There is much skepticism in dip- lomatic circles as to any practical results from a conference, and it is admitted on all sides that the circular came as the great- est surprise.”” ‘The Paris correspondent of the London ‘Times still insists that M. Faure and the French ministers knew nothing beforeaand, and that the czar’s proposal has pl the entire official world into terrible embar- rassment and almost into. stupefaction. “Everybody,” says M. de Blowitz, “is ask- ing with dismay what it means. It is asad awakening for France, and her papers are making an immense effort to restrain their feelings in the face of what is regarded as Russian perfidy.” The St. Petersburg correspondent of the London Daily Mailsays: “The proposal is a victory for M. de Witte, the Russian minis- ter of finance, over Count Muravieff, the former having warned Emperor Nicholas that if Muravieff's provocative policy toward England were continued Russia would soon beeome bankrupt. M. de Witte advised disarmament a8 a peace policy to enable him to carry out his plans for a gold Standard in Russia and a rehabilitation of Russian finance.” : , panos AE FLEES Comal Must Pay Havana Doty. _ The Havana council of secretaries has re~ selved, in view of the custom house regula- Jord ind Timothy BE.

Democratic State Convention at Mil- waukee—Ohie Middie-of-the- Road Populists. The Delaware Union republican state convention met yesterday and indorsed the ticket nominated last week by the regular republican party. The candidates are: For congressman, John H. Hoffecker; for state treasurer, Dr. L. H. Barr; for state audi- tor; John A. Lingo. This action will bring harmony in the republican ranks in Delaware, and there will be but one ticket in the field this fall. The union republican party and the reg- ular republican party each had tickets in the field last year and the year before. All the cendidates are nominated unani- mously. The platform declares for sound money, a protective tariff, the maintenance of a navy and army large enough to pro- tect the interests of the country, favors the fortification of the seacoast, and the retention of all territory captured during the war with Spain, congratula: the na- tion on the annexation of Hawaii, favers the building of the Nicaraguan canal. and demands an investigation of the leged nismanagement of the War Department. Wisconsin Democrats, The Wisconsin democratic state conven; tion meets in Milwaukee today to nom!- nate a full state ticket. All the interest so far has beén confined to the head of the icket. Judge Hiram W. Sawyer of Hart- kesha have been the most active aspirants for the governorship nomination. The majority of the 663 members of the cenvention wiil go into the hail uninstruct- ed. Ryan is known to have a larg jority of the delegates of Milws ty, but the supporters of Sawyer claim their man wili have a big lead in the rest of the state, and the outlook at present Rogers of Madison is also a cami It is believed many of the di st their ballots for former Gor W. Peck, but Mr. Pee chairman of the state central co: has not been working for the nomination, and is not a candidate. However, there is a possi! that the convention may get into a wrangle over the other candi and throw the nomination to the ex-governor. The platform will declare for the free coinage of silver. ‘The Ohio m‘ddle-of-the-road populists will hold a national convention at Cincinnati xt week, beginning at 10 a.m. Monday. joon after the call of this convention was originally issued it was withdrawn, and there have been conflicting reports ‘as to whether the convention would be held. J. A. Parker of Louisville, secretary of the National Reform Press Association, was at Cincinn iti yesterday, representing Chair- man Milton Park of Dailas, Texas, and other leaders. Parker had just returned from Texas, where he was conferring with National Chairman Park, and he engaged the Lyceum for the convention next week. The Lyceum adjoins the Music Hall, the national encampment of the Army of the Repubife will be held. While the middle-of-the-road__populists want a general conference before the con- gressional elections are held, the cohven- tien is called for next Week because of the very low rates on the railways that can be had te Cincinnati and the fact that many members of the Grand Army of the Repub- lic from the western states, who will be here thon, insisted on having a general con- fer at least, even if the delegate con- vention should have been called off. Among those who will be in attendance are Thom- s Watson, Ignatius Donnelly, Frank Bur- tt and Wharton Barker. The two wings cf the Idaho populist par- ty have nomir.ated a full state ticket.

To the Lditor of The Evening Star: ‘Lhe wise selection of che members of the peace commission makes almost a certainty of the hope that an equal amcunt of wis- dem and prudence will be shown by the President when he appoints the nine addi- tional members who, with the five sena- tors and representatives already named by the Senate and the House, will constitute the “industrial commission” created by the last Congress. While the pressure upon him is very great, it is not possible that he will know- ingly appofnt men who are simply politi- cians, or who depend solely upon their past political activity. It was not the intention to provide for a junketing trip, but that the commission should be omposed of thoroug’ representative business men. What does the machine politician know about questions affecting the welfare of the masses, except where he can find men weak enough to do his bid- ding? What docs the political “hench- * or “whipper-in” know about indus- trial conditions, excepting as they may af- fect his pocket? ‘This is not the time to experiment. The appointments should not be made on the score of politics. The baleful influence of men who are placed in positions requiring accurate knowledge of the duties thereof has repeatedly brought the movement with which they were connected down from a high plane of usefulness to the low level of mere political makeshift. How many commissions have failed because the members thereof used—as second nature dictated—their influence for political ends, thus denying themselves any treatment that honest people would be dis- posed to accord them? At a time like the present, when there is so much mystery to the laboring man in the “relations between capital and labor,” it would be the height of folly for any one but an expert to be trusted with the solu- tion. “The laboring man is no fool,” and he can see beneath the surface of things at times, as well as the trained expert, and while he may not be able to express ‘him- self in such choice language, yet his rea- soning may be the sounder, for all that. No; the country does not want a comm sion of politicians, nor a commission of “fat things,” in reward for past political activity; nor a commission composed of men who don’t krow a thing about what they are to do! What is wanted is a corps of men who are truly single in their purpose; accurate in their knowledge of business conditions; men who have a comprehensive grasp of matters affecting the welfare of those upon whom. we must’ all depend for our peace and quietude; men of tactful resource in dealing with perplexing questions; men of education and bread commércial knowl- edge; men who are aware that the sections may differ radically in their conditions; men of accurate judgment, who possess the ability to plough their way through the mass of fiction and misrepresentation that will surely suricund them, and be able to pick out tne true, rejecting the false. And, last, but most important of all, men of sterling worth anfi above reproach, in that they will not pcrmit themselves to be swallowed up in the fatally attractive po- litical maeistrom almost as soon as they are chosen; but having the stamina of business men and gentlemen, borrowing no false light or reflected radiance from others, but chosen because their past rec- ords indicate their ability to sucessfully grapple with the conditions they must con- front.

We are glad to agree with two of our Chester cotemporaries as to the same sug géstion for onc? in a lifetime.

Every farmer or xardener has his little patch of tobacco, much of which 1s very good in quality, but is injured in curing, being simply hung up under the wide eaves of the house to cry. It 1s quite strong. The supply seems to be ample, and the price is very low. No leaf tobacco is imported. “The Corean pipe is a brass bowl of fair size, with a brass mouthpiece. These are connected by a hollow reed stem of from one to four feet in lergth, some of these stems being beautifully ornamented and all neat and light.

Little cigars of about the size of a cigarette are also made and sold for 28 cents silver (14 cents gold) per one hundred. “The most popular foreign-made cigars attes now in usa in Corea seem to be brands like the ‘Ohayo,’ made in Japan, it is said, of American vobacco, but probably of a mixture of Japanese and American. These sell in Corea for $# silver ($25 gold) per case of twenty thousand, and retail for 8 cents silver (1% cents gold) per package of ten, with mouthpieces. “A cigarette made by machinery in Shanghai, of American tobacco, and called ‘Little Sweetheart,’ is meeting with consid- erable sal> here.’ They cell in Corea for $17 silver ($55 gold) per case of fifty thou- sand, and retail for 4 cents silver 2 cents gold) per package of ten, “American. cigarettes are used exclusively at the palace, where large quantities are consumed, This makes them popular also with the higher classes.
