representative of what has a score
or more of jute bagging companies.
All of these companies are to go out of ex-
istence and their plants are to become the
actual property of the new organization

more complete form of monopoly a gigan-
tic single company which will own ail the
jute bagging factories of the country and
have the complete control of prices and not

AMERICA'S P0WEE
FORMAL OPENING OF THE CONGRESS
OF AMERICAN NATIONS AND
ITS ORGANIZATION.
Address of Secretary Blaine Welcoming the
Delegates to the United States iu t'ae
Name of the Teople Thereof.
Wabhisgton October 2. Delegates to the
international American congress assem-
bled at the state department this morning
at 12 o: clock by appointment." They pro-
ceeded in a body from the waiting room to
the diplomatic receptioi. room. Here they
were presented to Secretary Blaine who
delivered a felicitous address of welcome.
The doors were closed to the public.
Following was Mr. Blaine's speech to the
congress: Gentlemen of the International
American Congress Speaking for the gov-
ernment of the United States I bid you
welcome to this capital ; speaking for the
people of the United States I bid you wel-
come to every section and to every state of
the Union. You come in response to an
invitation extended by the president
on the special authorization of
congress. Your presence here is
no ordinary event. It signifies
much to the people of all America to-duy ;
it may signify more in the days to come.
No conference of nations lias 'ever assem-
bled to consider the welfare of territorial
possessions so vast and to contemplate the
possibilities of a future so gnat and so in
spiring rnose now setti" v.;::::::
walls are empowered to speak for the na-
tions whose borders are both the great
oceans; whose northern limits are touched
by active waters for a thousand
miles beyond the straits of
Behring; whose southern extension fur-
nishes human habitations farther below the
equator than is elsewhere possible on the
globe. While considerations of this char-
acter must inspire Americans both south
and north with the liveliest anticipations
of future grandeur and power they must
also impress them with a sense ' of the
gravest responsibility touching the charac-
ter and development of their re-
spective nationalities. The delegates
whom I am addressing can do much
to establish permanent relations of confi-
dence respect and friendship between the
nations which they represent. They can
show to the world an honorable and peace-
ful conference of seventeen independent
American powers in which all shall meet
together on terms of absolute equality;
a conference in which there can be no at-
tempt to coerce a single delegate against
his own conception of the interests of his
nation; a conlerence which will permit no
secret understanding on any subject
but will frankly publish to the world all its
conclusions; a conference which will toler
ate no spirit of conquest but will aim to
cultivate an American sympathy as broad
as both continents; a conference which
will form no selfish alliance against the
omer nations irom which we are proud to
claim inheritance; a conference in fine
which will seek nothing propose nothing
endure nothing that is not in the general
sense of all the delegates timely and wise
and peaceful.
At the conclusion of Mr. Blaine's ad
dress which was received with an amount
of enthusiusm somewlmt remarkable in a
body of this character Secretury Blaine
retired and the following resolutions were
adopted :
Resolved That this congress names as
president pro tempore Hon. John B. Hen
derson delegate to this congress represent
ing uie unucii oiaies oi America.
Resolved. That a committee of five mem
bers be appointed by the president whose
duty it shall be to designate the
report to the congress on its
re-assembling in November next such
committees as in its judgment should be
appointed to facilitate the business of the
congress and the number of members each
committee shall have.
Mr. Henderson of Missouri took the
chair and under the last resolution the
following committee on organization was
announced by the chuirmun: Senor Ro
mero Mexican minister; Counsellor
Lafayette Roderinuez Pereira. of Brazil:
Dr.'Alberto Nin of Uruguay; Dr. Horatio
Guzman of Nicaragua and Dr. Jose M.
llurtado ot Colombia.
The committees retired and In a few
minutes returned with.a recommendation
which was immediately adopted that Sec-
retary Blaine be made president of the
congress.
Another committee was then appointed.
consisting of Senor Hurlado Mr. Bliss Se
nor vaierde ot Bolivia; Dr. Arago of Cos-
ta Rica and Senor Zcgarra of Peru to no
tify Secretary Blaine of his election.
Meanwhile a resolution was adopted pro
viding tor the appointment of a committee
of seven to draw up parliamentary rules for
the government of the congress. The com
mittee will be appointed hereafter.
A further resolution was udopted provid-
ing that in the absence of the president the
chair will be occupied by one of the dele-
gates of each of the nations represented in
the congress by turn selected by lot. An-
other resolution was adopted lor the ap
pointment oi a committee to distribute the
work of the congress among sub-commit
tees. This committee will also be appointed
ov tne chairman nereaiter.
On motion of one of South American
delegates the following resolution was
adopted :
Kesolved That members ot International
American congress accept witli pleasure
the invitation of the president of the
United States of America to be the guests
of his government in an excursion through
tne territory oi tne tinned states and that
we express our thanks for said invitation.
At this stage Secretary Blame entered
and was escorted to the president's chair.
A recess of fifteen minutes was taken
and at its expirution on mo
tion of Mr. Henderson the congress
adjourned until Monday November 18
when it will meet at noon nt Wallacli man
sion. After Adjournment the delegates were
escorted to the White House by Secretary
Blaine pausing for a few minutes at the
eastern entrance of the state department to
have their pictures taken in groups.
THE CRUISER BALTIMORE.
Report of the Trial Board Read in the Navy
Department.
Washington October 4. The ofliciul re-
port of the trial board of the cruiser Balti-
more relative to her recent trial run was
read to the navy department this morning.
The board states that the average horse
power developed by the engines was 8077.-
88 the requirement being 9000 thus mak-
ing a deficiency of 2.12 power which would
incur a penalty of $2212. The screw made
nn uverage of 117.9 revolutions per minute
which allowing 10 per cent slip would give
her an average speed of 10.0 knots an hour.
The report states that during the
run two of the indicators
which had been thoroughly tested
before the trial broke and it was necessary
to substitute two others which had not
been tried. On the record of the indica-
tors appeared the record of the develop-
ment of horse-power. Secretury Tracy
aner reading ine report mis morning de-
cided to waive the question of the accept!
ance of the vessel until he could hear from
the Cramps the contractors as to whether
or not they were willing to let the
last trial stand as the final one
or still preferred to have another trial
run with indicators thoroughly tested.
The difference is based on an accident to
the indicators. Report says that the ship
made wonderful speed notwithstanding
the failure to develop good horse-power and
the secretary is inclined to look upon that
achievement as eminently satisfactory. The
allowance made for slip in calculating the
speed is a large one.
THB EXCURSIONISTS AT NEW YORK. -
New Y'ork October 4. The delegates
reached here on the Yorktown this morn-
ing. The embarkation at West Point was
made in boats of which there was a small
fleet headed bv a steam launch. Col. Wil-
son and Mr. Romero had seats in one of
the siuuil trails well in advance of the
others. As the party approached the
Yorktown a file of marines was drawn up
on the port side and the officers stood be-
hind Commander Chadwlck with uncov-
ered heads as the distinguished visitors
crossed the gangway. The visitors were
introduced to the commander by
Superintendent Wilson and prepartions for
departure were immediately begun.
The bell sounded the screws gained
motion and as the ship gathered heudwuy
a salute was fired.
The interest of the foreign visitors had
been enlisted by the proceedings up to this
point but they were aroused almost to en-
thusiasm as under direction of the execu-
tive officer the machine guns began to
belch forth at intervals of twenty-one sec-
onds until fourteen shots had enveloped the
vessel in smoke. No etFort was spared by
Commander Chadwick and his officers to
make Ins passengers comfortable. Sniull
parties of guests were selected
in charge of various officers und explored
every corner of the ship from the white
decks with their great guns in position
their bruss rails and wealth of ship furni-
ture to the hot ami rapidly pulsating en-
gines. When the delegate's could spare the
lime for thev were ever watching the beau
tifully proportioned ninciiinery of the great
guns and other warlike device's they point-
.! lwi uuuiuuiiuu lo the beauties oi the
valley through which they ran.

was New Orleans' record yesterday. Noel
St. Martin belonging to one of the oldest
and most illustrious Creole families of
Louisiana formerly a large sugar planter
and very wealthy but very much reduced
in circumstances lately lost his position as
inspector of water works which seemed to
discourage him. He was found in a shed
shot through the head yesterday morning.
John Tress a gardener put a bullet
through his bead on account of business
troubles.
Joseph Marcus a young Hebrew "shuf-
fled off this mortal coil" by the revolver
route because Mayor Shakespeare clo.'ed
the gambling houses in which business he
was interested.
Pony White ex-steamboat engineer and
gambler followed suit but went by a dif-
ferent route taking twenty grains ot mor-
phine instead of using a pistol. Cause
same as the others.
THE MONTANA ELECTION.
A Democratic Governor Probably Elected.
The Honse Still in Doubt.
Minneapolis Minn. October 4. The
Journal's Helena special says the situation
this morning shows Toole democrat is
probably elected governor. The rest of
the state officers are all republican the
senate also but the house is still question-
able. The republicans claim the legisla-
ture on joint ballot by three or four major-
ity. All county oflicials are cltcted by
lei.iiiiiieiins. ine situation in general is
still unreliable.
To be Contested.
Aierbeen Dakota October 4. Report is
current here that the election will bo con-
tested so far as the prohibition question is
concerned upon the ground that a large
part of the tickets used were not printed
upon white paper in black ink as required
by statute. Most of the tickets used in
Brown county were printed upon cream
papei in blue ink.
