New Yoiik, July !). A dispatch to the Tribune from London says the three special envoys empowered by the United States to negotiate with European powers for a settlement of the silver question on International lines, will have two embassies behind them in place of one. They produced so good an impression upon the French government during their stay In Paris that the French embassy In London has been instructed to co operate with the American embassy In such conference and negotiations as may be conducted with the British government. It has been known that M. Melinc and the French ministry were out spoken in expressing their sympathy for the objects of their mission, and in promising that their concurrences would not be wanting for the li lunipli ofthecauseot national Bimetallism on international lines, but It has not been suspected that the French -government would be prepared to lend diplomatic as well as moral support to this movement of the McKlnley ad ministration In ravorof Bimetallism. It Is nevertheless true that those en voys in tills negotion with the foreign otllce and the chancelor of the ex chequer, will have the hearty co operation of the French and Ameri can embassies. Messrs. Wolcott, Stevenson and Payne are not here in an errand of political adventure; they aie success ful negotiators who have carried their main points In Paris and have en listed not only the good will but also the active co-operation aid diploma tic support of the French government in their London campaign. Ambassador Hay lias been ardudusly at work on the same lines ever since, his arrival in London, and his prestige and influence are now of the greatest pocslble service in facilitating the work of the envoys, who are likely to remain hero several weeks before re turning to Paris. What was originally au effort on the part of the McKlnley administra tion to carry out the pledges of the Eepubllcan platform respecting bi metallsm grounded on international agreement, has become already a joint movement on the part of the United States and France to bring about a settlement of the monetary question through the action of a new confer ence France Is the natural ally of the United States In this movement, be cause she has greater Interest than any other European state In bimetal lism. The bank of France contains in its vaultsoyer $255,000,000 in silver, which has been withdrawn fromcir culatlan. Both governments have a common interest in obtaining the ad justment of this monetary question which has caused a disturbance throughout the commercial world.and they arc naturally supporting each other in the negotiations now opening in London, Shooting Affray. San Francisco, July 9. Captain The Winner of one of those $100 prizes got her yellow tickets in this way: i. By using the tea herself. 2.

The Tees brings news of the trouble between the dif ferent tribes of Indians on the west coast. In years gone by an arrange ment was made between the chief of the Nootka Indians and the Kstka thlahs, that by paying a bounty of oue In ever seven skins taken, the Kitkathlahs could, come down and hunt sea otters on the shores pf the Nootka reservation. Tiie arrangement worked well while the Nootka Indi ans weie away sealing, and the chief reaped a rich harvest, but. now that the Nootkas are at hoiie they do not fall in with the proposition. Accordingly when.lho,Jvltkatlilulis came down to hunt as aforetime, they sent out a messenger ordering them to go homo. The at once refused. Another messenger was sent telling them that unless lliey did so the Noot kas would come oat and fight them. The affair did no! come to blows, as the tribesmen, following the example set by civilized (immunities, held a big "wahwa." II. Glllctt, Indian agent at Albern, on board the Tees, acted as judge letwcen the opposing factions and dedded in favor of the Nootkas. Thee was a lively time at the "pow-wow and several times the tribesmen neaily camo to blows. The Kitkathlahs verc much worked up oyer the affair When the Tees left they were stlllcncamped on the beach at Nootka holling "wah-was" among themselves, ijdignation meetings as It were. Twf of them wont to Kyu kuotto try tocatch the Quadra to lay their grlevarce before Captain Wal bran.

San Francisco, July 9 Tho long anticipated "California, '97" of tho Christian Endeavorers becatnu a re ality with the assembling of tho two vast audiences at the Mechanics' and Woodwards pavilions. Ten thousand people tilled tho Me chanics' pavilion as early as 9:30 a. m, and crowds or delegates and visitors who came later were turned away, no room being left for them on tho inside. The hal! was a vast bo quct of colors. All was animation ana happiness, with the 'thousands eager to applaud or cheer at eyery op portunity. The formal opening was by Rev. V. E. Clark, the founder and presi dent or the great Christian Endeavor SOT son in the building, luyery man, woman and child stood upon benches and (hairs waving aloit flags, bannsrs and handkerchiefs in fact, eyery conceivable object to be had. The .In...nrl...llnii li.Cnfl Lilt.. ..Mil t.t.mifn and Dr. Clark appeared much affected 1 by the heartiness 01 weico-i 0. The meeting at Woodward's pavil ion, while not so large, owing to the smaller capacity of the building, was equally enthusiastic. Tho hall was crowded and hundreds blocked the streets on the outside. Secretary Willis Baer formally opened the con vention at this meeting. The Christian Endeavor Host nave completed their conquest of this city. They hayo arrived in such numbers during the last 21 hours us to perme ate every quarter of tho city. All through tiie late hours of the night and every hour this morning trains have arrived from the east, nortli mid south, bearing thousands of delegates and visitors. Special boats have car ried the crowds across the bay, and at tho ferries they were met by scores of white-canned lruldes. whoso sole duty It Is to make the delegates welcome and to pilot them to the headquarters tit the Mechanics' Pavilion, where every delegate is registered anu di rected to some comfortable quarters in some part of the city. The scene at the pavilion resemble a. national political convention, ex cept that women are more in evi dence on this occcasion than usually attend great gatherings. In fact fully two-thirds of the delegates are of the gentler sex. But their presence tends to make tho scono more strik ing in color and more animated In spirit. All tho stiects in the busi ness district of the city and in the neighborhood of tho diffcrnt liead quarteis aro congested with tho countless thousands of visitors. Everyone seems to be on tho move, as if the cooling breezes from tho Pa cific arc most welcome after a journey through the burning alkali plains. Men and women alike aro decked with ribbons of purple and gold. Endeavor colors, on which are words announc ing their state and town. Streams of delegates poured into the pavlllion throughout the night and this fore noon, and the young women engaged in the registration booths were kept busy, but the registration department was prepared for anything, and not even the big Massachusetts delegation could rattle them. Most of tho state delegations aro supplied with literature, and It Is not confined to Christian Endeavor pub lications. There aro phumplcts pro claiming the frultfulness of tho soil, the beauty of the scenery, tho vastness of the Industries and the Holds of la bor. The busiest scenes this morning are about the California hcadhuarters. There are 30,000 Entleayorers In Cali fornia, and it seems as though most of them intended putting in an ap pearand at some time during tho convention. Not the least attractive part of this part of thopavlllon Is tho score of pretty California girls who aro engaged In distributing badges and imparting Information to all those who call. OREGON UOOTII. The work of decorating the different state booths Is about completed, and the installing of the coat-of-arms of each state on t tic different booths has giyen life and color to every nook in the building. One of the largest and handsomest booths Is that of Oregon, decorated in purple and gold, tho state name appearing in gold letters. The other Northern coast state, Wash ington, has handsome quarters, violet and white being the predominant corors. The total number or arrivals, In cluding those of tills forenoon, Is about 10,000. The last of the big eastern delegations arc expected to San francisco some time tonight, though a few stragglers aro expected to continue dropping in throughout the remainder or this week. Rev. Francis E. Clark, father of the Christian Endeavor ii.ovciiicnt, made his first uppcaranec In Califor nia at tiie First Presbyterian church In Oakland. Owing to tho blockade in tho railroad yards, Mr. Clark could not cross tho bay as soon as ho ex pected, and yielded to tho icquests or tho enthusiastic Oaklandcrs to hold a meeting In that city while waiting to cross.

Chicago, July 9. -The News' Wash ington special says: President Mc Klnley will signalizo the passage of the tariff bill by opening the granar ies to tho "Faithful."

In Washington many more clerks will bo removed from the classified lists. All of tho government printing of fice employes will bo exempted, and likewise those of the bureau of en graving and printing. It, Is not Im probable that chiefs of divisions In departments will fare the same way. DEPEW Magnate on Bryan. When We Get Proper Legislation Silver Craze Will Die. New York, July 9. A dispatch from London says: The Daily Telegraph publishes an interview with Dr. Chaunccy M. Dc pew, In which he says: "Bryanlsm is only another namu for discontent with existing con ditions. For three years the Ameri can farmer has had no paying mar ket for his produce or livestock. Mi ner and manufacturer have had ten tative and spasmodic but not regular business, and labor has found no steady employment. Bryanlsm rep resents this alleged cure and hope. It was'defcated by a campaign of ed ucation and the promise or prosper ity with a new administration and a protective tariff, and also a stability in our currency. "The disappearance of Bryarilsm In the year 1900 at the next presiden tial elections depends upon tho fulfil ment of theso promises. If we get Into the promised legislation and get good times, then Bryanlsm will bo dead. H we do not, thero will bo such an iucrcaso of uneasiness and discontent as to sweep tho country for Mr. Bryan or some experiment with linancial and industrial theo ries." Orders for the Oregon. Seattle, July 9. The fact that diplomatic relations between Japan and tho ;UnItcd States seem to bo near tho breaking-point may bo re sponsible for the sudden orders re ceived by Captain Barker, of tho battle-ship of Oregon.

Wo will sail tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock. That's all I know." Strike Threatened, Vancouver, B. C.July 0. A meet ing of fishermen, at Stevcston, was attended by oyer 1,000 lishermen.

A committee was appointed to Interview thocanncrs and havo them sign an agreement to that effect by Saturday. If tho canners refuse, a general strike will bo ordered.
